second after Sunday midnight. EVERYBODY
isn't honest who patronize Dennetrs. fro-
haoly some daring thief saw his cnsnes
in the closing OF the Park row place ana
awaited himself OF 1t.
At all events, at 40 p. NJ. yestsr-
day Robert L. Hall, general manager OF
the company, whose duty Is TO inspect
the building on Sunday afternoons. en-
tered the restaurant F<e walked IN
whistling cheerfuily. Then he rubbed
his eyes and gasped. The safe on the
first floor had been pushed away from
the cashiers desk. and It's door was VIDE
open, whIie around the floor the az
count-books were scattered.
Out he ran. and called Patrolnan
McKenna, who in turn called Detective
Gihooley. Then they went up 10 the
second floor. where the Surprising Coffee
Company has its Offices.
Hall threw up his hands. saying. MY.
oh, my. oh. myr'
-Four more safes stood there. Ike de-
serted houses. bleak and desolate. Burg
lars had orsned all OF them.
The robbery was reported TO the OAK
Street Police station, and Captain Thomp-
son. with Detectives OBryen and Ry-
der, from the central Office, rushed out
on the case
They found that entrance TO the build
ing had been made through the sky
light. and By means OF an iron ladder
TO the fifth floor. IL Is not known just
Row the burglars made their way 10 the
top OF the building on the o,tside.
From the fifth floor they descended to
the general Offices There are kept four
safes. These were pried open with jim
niles with little trouble, as the marks on
the doors show.
Then the robbers-fear,css meu-decided
TO enter the region OF the quick ldnch.
They went down the back stairs and en-
tered the kitchen, In the rear OF the
dinng-room on the street floor. The safe
on this floor was I'm the front or the
dining-hall at the right Of the cashier
desk.
Carefully avoiding all observation by
Disgusting Themselves as sections OF

70 the safe. II il thought that they

several cnoirs were found overturned.
Before operations were begun The safe
was drawn from its original position
by the cashiers desk. 50 as TO stand be

About 500 in cash was taken from the

From these 81 IT'S was taken. Checks for
siC0. SITS and 500 i'm Mr.. Swaln's safe were
left there.
Sixty thousand dollars in securities OF
