Ecp,ng~r's house Is Amos; opposite
Johns store. EpEanger heard a window
raised Oh the opposite side OF the street
ard hooked out. He saw a young fellow
standing in front OF the s.ore smoking.
but every now and then looking into the
store Eppinger soon got the s.tuitlon
clearly. A man was inside the store go
ing through tho TIL. Pretty sooa a man
came out through the front window with
something under his coat
Eppinger tried to borrow pistol. bat
was unsuccessful He went out the back
way and baker yelled out: What do
You wants'
Keep quiet" replied Eppinger.
The damage was done. however. for the
burglars heard the noise. The one with
something under his coat started up the
street as fast as he could go. Eppinger
took after him. A man at the Western
hotel tried TO trip up the burglar. but
missed his calculations and the chase
went on.
The burglar turned down Marion street
and up the alley between Third and Sec
ond avenues. Eppinger yelled 10 a man
to watch the alley and ran down 20 Sec
ond avenue. thinking the burglar would
turn down Madison street When Ep-
pinger reached Second avenue a police
man thought he was the burglar and fred
in the air. Eppinger stopped and the
burglar escaped.
The amount of money secured by the
burglars Is not known. The till, however,
was taken out and left on the counter
Entrance was effected by lifting up the
big front window, which did not appear to
be fastened down.
Eppinger is satisfied that the second
burglar concealed himself in the space be-
tween the store and the adjoining building
and that he passed him.

Of revolutionary bands in the Cas-
tillion province.
I Concerning the plot, it is said
that the conspirators nave drawn
lots to decide which of them shall
carry out the purpose and that the
task has fallen upon a man named
Disbal, who has suffered imprison-
ment in the fortress OF Mont Juich
for participation in one of the Bar
celona anarchist outrages, and
whose sentence was recently COM
muted by the Supreme Court to
expulsion from CastilIion. The
band consists Of twenty men. Ac-
cording to some accounts they are
republicans ard others say they
are Carlists. Their first move was
to attack custom post and capture
all the arms Next they cut the
telegraph and telephone wires."
