OFFICE BLOWN TO PIECES.
Robbers Use Too Much Powder at James
Bros. Place.

Chicago, Sept. 2S.-W hen the James
brothers came down to their coal Of
flee at 1925 South Halstead street Sat-
urday morning they found the front
window and a portion of the end of the
building blown away, while the safe
door lay in the street. The contents of
the safe were still there, but this was
due to the fact that burglars had put
in a little more powder than they had
intended, and, instead Of blowing open
the safe door, they blew out the end of
the office and aroused everybody in the
neighborhood, even to policeman who
was patrolling a beat in the vicinity.
The nocturnal visitors bored a hole
apparently deep enough to hold a
charge of powder which would blow up
Gibraltar, and then filled the hole to
the brim. Two minutes after the ex-
plosion every resident In the vicinity
was out of bed and the lone policeman
was re-enforced by so many people that
the safe blowers did not have time to
wait for booty. They were pursued by
officer Boyle, but succeeded in max
ing their escape.

suicide MYSTERY AT TORONTO.
Man at 80 Who Carefully Concealed His
Identity Before Death.


Toronto. Sept 2s.-The identity Of a
man who committed suicide at the
Queens hotel in this city Tuesday
night still remains a mystery. He ar
rived on the boat from Niagara in the
evening and registered at II. Nanta,
New York. He was found dead i'm the
morning. having taken a dose of cy-
anide of potassium. The man tried
hard TO conceal his identity and was
very successful. All the marks were
carefully cut from his clothing, and
not a scrap of paper that would help
identification was found on him. Thir-
ty dollars was found in his pockets,
all in American bills. Some of the
pages in his pocketbook had been
burned, and the only writing on the
other pages referred to chemicals used
in photography.
His brown leather valise was Of the
latest pattern and contained some
summer clothing and a quantity of fine
underwear. A minute examination Of
the body showed Enthusiastically that
"Nanta' was a man of good breeding.
His teeth are perfect, and glistened
like ponshed ivory. He wears a NOUS
tache, a small light colored goatee, and
his hair, in color a few shades darker
than blonde, is a trifle thin on top of
his head. He is about 80 years old.
The body was spotlessly clean and the
finger and toe nails were polished and
trimmed with scrupulous care. The
hands and feet are small and perfect.
In fact, the body looks like that of a
young man of excellent lineage. In
the hat the deceased wore IS the di-

Daylight of Money They Intended to Pay
Their Employes-In Escaping the Men
Shoot Miikmsn in the Leg and Drive
on with Hrs Wagon-Attempted Safe
Robbery.
Chicago, Sept 2s.-Two robbers
walked into the office of the Western
Foundry company at Albany avenue
and Thirty-ninth street just before 4
o'clock Friday afternoon, held up five
men who were in the office, took $1,000
from the treasurer's desk and got
away, firing at their pursuers as they
went. Policemen in three patrol wag-
ons and eighty workmen from the
foundery followed the robbers, who
were in a buggy, but the pursuers were
too far in the rear at the beginning of
the chase. The buggy Of the robbers
was broken by a collision with post
at California avenue and Thirty-sixth
street. Then the ran across lots and
seized a milk wagon, fired a bullet in
the milkman's leg and sped away in
the vehicle as fast as the horse could
go. The milk wagon was afterward
recovered at Thirty-third place and
OdhlSy avenue, where the IODDSiS lSll

More than a dozen shots werefired
by the robbers and at them, but no one
was hit but Frank Nyholt, the milk
man. The police were too late to get
sight of the robbers or take part in the
shooting. The robbery, flight and pur-
suit is accounted one of the most thrill
ing events in the history of Brighton

short man. But they differed in ap-
pearance from the famous long and
short pair who held up many stores last
spring and summer. These men wore
masks in the shape of false boards, and
one OF them is known 10 have worn a
wig. Two boards and a wig were found
in the buggy which they abandoned
after wrecking it in the collision. They
also left two soft hats In the buggy.
They were the hats the men wore when
they made the five men in the found
cry Office stand up in line while they
took the stacks of money and went
away.
The Western Foundry company in
tended paying off its force of men FRI
day afternoon. The 81 900 the robbers
got was the cash which had just been
drawn ont of the bank for that pur-
pose less than an hour before. AS
consequence the eighty employees of
the foundery went home without their
wages for the last half of the month.
The robbery took place at 3:45 o'clock.
Fifteen minutes before that d. r.
O'Neil. president of the Western
Foundry company and A. NJ. Rourke,
secretary and treasurer. returned TO the
office with the money which they drew
out of the Union National hank at 8
o'clock TO make up the semi-monthly
payroll. The money was all in bills eX
cept $50, which was in silver dollars
and fractional currency. 1t made a
bulky lot and the two men divided it
to carry it to the office more easily.
