Mr.. Boutelle was sixty-two years Of

DYNAMITED A BANK.

CAMBRIDGE, MASS, WRECKED
BY EXPLOSION.

CAMBRIDGE, Mass, May A-What
the police believe was a daring attempt
to rob the Cambridgoport National bank
of this city. by the use of dynamite in
broad daylight, was revealed at 1O:45 a..
m. today by an explosion in the bank
which blew out the side of the office,
damaged other parts of the building and
in which Cashier William F. Roaf sus-
tanned bad wound on tho head.
If the explosion was part of a plot to
rob the bank, the plan failed, for moth
ing of value was taken from the place.
1t is thought from the force of the con-
,cussion and other evidences that dyna-
mite was used and that it may have been
set off by time fuse. The bank Is in a
four-story brick structure in the busi-
ness center Of Cambridge. the shock of
the explosion was felt for several blocks.
but no damage was done outside of the
bank building.
