HOLD TOWN At BAY.
Four Masked Robbers Keep OF Citizens
Aroused by Bank Safe Explosion I'm
til Booty is All Secured.

Canal Dover, o., Dec. 14.-Four
masked men held the town of
Shanesyille. four miles west of here,
at bay before dawn while they blew
the safe in the private bank of John
Doerschuck The explosion aroused
the citizens, who armed themselves
and turned out. but We're held off by
the determined burglars until the
wrecked safe had been looted. Then,
amid fusillade of bullets the four
escaped on Wheeling and Lake Erie
handcar, carrying with them between
$1,000 and $4,000 That some of the
bullets took effect is evident by trail
of blood.
The conditions surrounding the rob-
berry are the same as those at Seville,
a few days ago. and the belief is gen
eral that the same men did the work.
The robbers abandoned the car before
reaching Baltic, five miles distant. and
a posse is now in pursuit with blood
hounds.
