His Home Against Burglars.

Chicago, March 9-A highly sensa-
tional attempt to rob the home Of Will
liam Mclaughlin, the millionaire coffee

two revolvers flying about him, young
Mclaughlin stood on the front porch Of
his fathers house and caught a bur-
the thief slid down the porch pillar. The
escaping burglar whose two confed-
crates on guard were shooting at Nc
Laughlin, drew his revolver. Pressing
it to McLaugh1in'a abdomen as he land
ed at the bottom he pulled the trigger
but the cartridge failed to explode Nc
Laughlin struck the burglar 9. blow that
sent him reeling to the ground eight feet
below. As he struck the man McLaugh-
lin era bbed the revolver from the burg
lars hand and fred at him as he fell.
Then followed the escape Of the two
men who had stood guard. They rode
east on Ontario street in a buggy, one
man firing his revolver. The wounded
man, forsaken by his comrades. ran
madly after them, followed by Nc
Laugh1in and his brother-in-law. Gen.
NJ. d. Hardin. Entering a block the
pursuers were forced to halt, for the
coin Park boulevard and Ontario street
and opened a fusillade while waiting for
their wounded comradee to join them.
When he got into the buggy the three
dashed their horse and went south on
Lincoln Park boulevard. Mr. McLaugh-
lin followed, shouting as he ran: xiii
those men, they are thievesi" His
shouts were heard by Charles Kearn, a
candy maker, who opened fire on the
fugitives but failed to stop them. The
men in the buggy kept up the fire until
they were given free passage. The rob
bers had obtained no booty at the Nc
