the crime was committed by one man or
five, The probabilities are, however,
that more than one man was concerned

capture the robbers. kilograms have
been sent to every sheriff in the central

ROBBERS CARRY
OFF A FORTUNE
Selby Smelling Works Robbed
at Vallejo.
$4,000 IN GOLD WAS STOLEN
Vault Was Entered From Outside and
-Four lBEotS Of ReiIsed Gold We're
Taken- No Clue to the
Robbers.

VALLEJO. Cal, Aug. 6.-The selby
Smelling Works was robbed OF 100000
last night In gold bricks The .obbers
had eH1enily been working en- the case
for two or three months. They had dug
a tunnel rom outside the house, llgging
la shlf, first ab5u. three feet ,e9p. They
then tunneled in under the vault and
striking upward, bored a hole In the
s,rongrO)m floor. The hole was IN the
shape Of a manhJe Of boiler. Part Of
the hole had been bored TWO months ago.
IL Is thought, ald The last one was bored
las; night. Through hat hole they
took the gold bricks and carried them
10 the shore near the tunnel east Of
the works, where they were evidently
placed in bOa:. In the hurry they left
TWO Of hoe bricks on the bank.
During the night one OF the workmen
reported to his fellows that he heard a
noise In the strongroom. and he thought
!, must be 4 ghost, The others ridlculed
him for his superstition, but an investi-
gatioa was made 10 see what caused the
noise.
The entrance 10 the tunnel was COW
cred with frame, over which the EN-
ployes IF the smeltsr passed repeatedly
every day, but 40 one seemed TO notice
anything out Of the way.
The police Of San Francisco and all
the bay cities are az work on the case.
but 30 far there is not the slightest clew
TO the robbers, The work was that OF
skilled men. and evidently elaborate
plans had been carried out without
hitch, The thieves got all the bullion
in the vault. leaving behind only two
bricks, which they dropped on the shore
in their haste. Only one days accu-
mutation OF refined gold was KEEP, at The
works, Yesterdays run was unusually
heavy, and the gold was TO have keen
shipped back 10 San Francisco today.
The tunnel that the robbers txcavated
was about three feet in diameter, and
gave them plenty OF room in which 10
work. l, ls supposed that the 6iri from
the tunnel was taken out al night and
dropped in the bay The first report
stated that the tunnel was 200 or 5000
feet long, but according 10 late advices,
It is only about ten feet in length. The
shat: was started close 20 the wall,
which was sunk below he foundation.
From there /; was only a short distance
under the floor Of the vault.
1t is thought that the men who COM
mltted the robbery took their Ilunier
away in a launch and made direct for
San Francisco. There are plenty of 9TH
er places, however. where they could
have gone-either up :he Sacramento
river or TO the shore OF any Of the num-
erous bays.
Following is the list Of the property
stolen; Four fine gold bricks all num-
6ered and containing the following; No.
1886, 1880 ounces and fraction: No,
1897. $50 ounces; No. 1888, 1923 ounces
and a fraction; No 1889, 1887 ounces and
a fraction, also 10000 ounces Of gold in
various shapes and a little silver.
The gold in the bricks is worth $50 an
ounce.
