ATTEMPT TO ROB A SAFE.
Burglars Mt Sandy Springs. Nd,
Leave a Job Half Done

Burglars made an attempt early yesser-
day morning to blow open the safe of the
Sandy Springs Savings Institution, at San
dy Springs, Nd, about twenty-five miles
from this city. The safe was bored pre-
paratory to further work by the r6bsers,
who were frightened avay prior to TIE ac-
complshment of their plans Detectives
Miller and Peck were sent into Maryland
last night to assist the Maryland author
ties on the case. Word of the attempt
was received here shortly after noon yes
terday, but no arrests nave been made as
yet.
The building of the savings institltion
is also occupied temporarily by the First
National Bank of Sandy Springs. The
burglars made their entry into Sandy
Springs about 2 O'CLOCK in the morn
ing, and at once began work upon the large
safe in the apartments of the savings ii-
stitution. The first door of the vault was
pried open, the second door was blown
from its hinges with dynamite. and work
upon the safe proper had begun when the
burglars were discovered. Samuel b.
Wetheral merchant, whose house adjoins
the> bank building was awakened by the
noise of the explosion when dynamite was
used II was shortly after O'Clock, and he
donned his clothes and started out to find
the sheriff. In this ne was unsuccessful,
but he awakened ex-SherifT Fairall, and
together the men aroused several other
citizens of the town. President A e.
Thomas. OF the First National Bank OF
Sandy Springs, was among the number.
As the party started toward the bank it
was met by Allan Faquhar. who had gone
on tour of inspection. Mr.. Faquhar
stated that the burglars had evidently es-
capped. as a light in the building had been
extinguished some time before An inyes-
tigation was quickly made. II was found
that the main door had been broken. and
that two outer doors of the vault had been
forced. Preparations were also visible for
the destruction of the door of the safe
probably by the use of dynamite. Further
investigation showed that none OF the con-
tents Of the safe had been reached by the
thieves. 1t is reported that a comparative
ly small sum of money had been left in the
vault. but not in the safe. the night before,
and this may have been secured by the
burglars.
Word concerning the crime was sent to
the county officers. to Baltimore and
Washington police officials, and all are
working on the case. II has been learned
that the burglars made their escape by
means Of buggy. stolen from a negro
named James Scott. who lives near the
town. After leaving Sandy Springs it is
thought the men went toward Olney, thence
to Washington Grove. Md, or some other
railroad station on the Metropolitan branch
CT the Baltimore and Ohio. Late yesterday
afternoon States Attorney Talbot. OF
Montgomery County, Nd. came to this
city. He went to headquarters and had
conference with Acting Inspector Carter.
who Immediately detailed two detectives
to work upon the case

ENDLESS CHAIN SCHEMES.
Some of Them Now Declared 10 BE
Legal.

The operators of the coupon or end
less chain" schemes for the sale Of rugs,
shoes. lamps, and other articles of mer-
chandise have gained a notable victory
over the Postofice Department. as evil
denced by a circular which has been sent
to postmasters throughout the United
States. Some time ago the question OF ad-
hitting this class Of matter to the mails
was submitted to the Attorney General of
the United States. who rendered an opin-
ion in which he held that all such schemes
were Illegal A subsequent opinion, how
ever, admits that certain schemes are not
Illegal and can be operated through the
mails, and the original order of the Post
office Department disbarring all such
schemes from the use of the mails has
therefore been modified.
The substance OF the two opinions Is
that where the purchaser of a book of
coupons undertakes to sell them and de-
liver the money himself to the consignor
OF the goods the plan is legal and in eff
feet the person selling the coupon is
merely an agent for the party selling the
goods. But where the coupons are to be
given away and the receipt of the article
in question depends on the parties receiy-
ing the coupons sending them in. accom-
panied by the proper amount of money,
then the element of chance enters into
the calculation. the chance being in the
probability that at least one of those re-
ceiving the coupons will fail to send in
the necessary amount of money and the
chain will thus be broken. the starter los
ing whatever he had paid in
No such element of chance. however,
can enter into the case when the pur-
chaser of the original book OF coupons col
lects the money himself. In the second
order, however. it is provided that when
the coupon concerns guarantee to redeem
unsold coupons. or agree to replace cou
pons lost or destroyed or to give credit FOR
the same, then It makes no difference
whether the original purchaser of the book
of coupons forwards the money for tina
subsequent books or whether it is for
warded by the purchasers OF the coupons
in the first, the scheme is legal and the
department viii handle the mail 1t is con-
sidered that this is a legitimate means OF
disposing of goods.

lions at Upper Marlboro.
True Bills Found Against the Five
Men Who Are Charged With As
sauItinE Lucy Hart Near Be1tsville
Their Trial TO Begin Next Week
Prisoners still In the County Jail

An Indictment has been found by the
grand jury CT Prince George County
against Edward T. Shea, sheriff of the
county; William Shea his brother; Todd
Fox, Herbert Boteler, and Leo Smith, on
the charge of having committed felon-
iops assault upon Lucy Hart. The pre-
sentiment was filed with Judge Merrick,
of the Circuit Court, now in session at
Upper Marlboro, yesterday afternoon. The
case will be tried next week, but no date
has yet been set.
Because of the prominence of the ac-
cused and the peculiar circumstances of
the alleged crime, this case has excited
general interest. The assault, it is claim
ed, was committed on the afternoon of
Sunday, September %. near the home CT
the victim, in the vicinity of Beltsville.
Prince George County. Md. On the Mon
day following the alleged commission of
the crime. a warrant was sworn out by
the father Of the girl, Frank Hart, against
the accused. The arrests were not made
until two days later, when the accused
surrendered themselves to specially ap-
pointed officers. On Thursday CT last
week the preliminary hearing was called.
State Attorney Levin at that time ow-
ing to the absence of some witnesses,
had the hearing postponed until Satur-
day, when Magistrate Sears listened to
the testimony of the girl and of her moth
er. He decided that the evidence vas
sufficient to hold the accused for the &C
tion of the grand jury. and committed
them TO the Marlboro Jail. under the GUS
tody of an elisor appointed TO take in
charge the person of the sheriff end
those accused with him of the crime. JUS
tice Sears refused 20 accept bail. claim
ing that he had no Jurisdiction in the
matter, and that il was a question to be
settled by habeas corpus proceedings.
The prisoners have been in the jail,
under heavy guard since their incarcera-
ton. None but their counsel have been
permitted to see them. The grand jury
was empaneled Monday of this week.
At the moment when the jury was about
TO retire to take up its deliberations,
State Attorney Levin announced to the
court that he had been advised by Mr..
Hart, the father of the gill. that two OF
the Jurors who had been selected had
approached him with a suggestion to COM
promise the assault case against one of
the accused, Todd Fox, for a money con-
sideration On Tuesday the affidavit of
Hart, setting forth the alleged circun-
stances OF his charges against the jurors,
was presented. Judge Merrick discharged
Pickney Scaggs and S. C. Hall. the ac-
cused men, from service ON the grand
Jury. The grand jury then proceeded TO
investigate the charges in the Hart as
sault case and Lucy Hart. her father.
Frank Hart; her mother, Mrs. Hart, and
her two nieces, Efie and Annie Cunning
ham, were examined.
