place at l o'clock this morning. At
that hour persons tor blocks around
heard terrific explosion. In a few
minutes the building was surrounded
by policemen and thorough search
made but no troce of burglars was dis
coverey. At the top of the stairway
leading to the second story landing,
the effect of the explosion was seen,
upper step had been torn out entirely
and pieces had been driven up against
the ceiling, tearing large hole. At
first it seemed that the burglars had
gotten over the vault and exploded a

blown in the whole top. By lowering
light however, it was seen that the
explosion had taken effect 6 feet back
of the vault. The vault was not in
jured nor was any booty secured.
