ROBBERS WERE BOLD:
Wreck a Bank Vault in Town Of
Alexandria, o.

The Gang Continues at Its Work for
an Hour Although Bank IL Sur
rounded by Villasers-The
Thieves. Escape.

Columbus. o., July IA gang Of
six or eve robbers wrecked the
Ressler and Ashbrooke bank at Alex
andria, in Licking county, about one
o'clock Tuesday morning. The strong
box resisted their efforts, and they
overlooked a package of S 1880 in the
outer vault, which they blew almost
to pieces.
Tools were stolen from the Toledo
& Ohio Central railroad with which
the front door of the bank was
opened, after which four charges of
dynamite was exploded to open the
vault. The noise aroused Cashier C.
B.. Buxton and. others who reside
near the bank, and they hasteped to
the scene. Although the citizens re-
sponded promptly, the robbers re-
mained;in the bank for an hour long
er, during which time they made re-
peated attempts to force the strong
box, meanwhile keeping up an ex-
change of shots with the villagers.
Finally the bandits fed in two rigs
which had been previously stolen.
They drove furiously away to the
north. Sheriff Anderson and a posse
r now in pursuit.
There was only about $500 in the
strong box, the package of 81, 800 hav-
ing been received too late to be
placed therein Monday eyening. This
money was found among the debris
by the cashier Tuesday. The loss is
covered by insurance.
