Few people who gaze upon the

and silver by the hundredweight are
there exposed to view, while the in

hibits mounts up into the millions Yet
all is open, with only thin sheets of

tendants flock to the rescue. The thief
learns, too late for profitable informa-

piece in every case has a separate at

building. The accessibility of the costly
objects is only apparent, the entire
police of Washington is guarding them
