MAKE BIG HAUL AT BANK.
Burglars Carry Off Between $4,000 and
$4,000 at Eldorado, Ill.

$4,000 at E1dorado, Ill.
A posse of citizens in Eldorado, ILL.,,
fought a rifle and revolver battle with
a band of burglars who had blown open
the vault in the bank of G. B. Burnett
& Sons. The thieves escaped with be-
tween $4,000 and 100000 The bank
Is in a substantially built brick struc-
ture, with heavy iron bars over the WIN
dows. Few persons are abroad in Eldo-
RADIO after midnight, and there is no po-
lice protection. The village was awak
ened by a terrific explosion. Burnett
and his sons, who live nearby, were the
first to reach the scene. They were
armed with revolvers, and saw several
men running from the front door of the
bank. The thieves detected them, ana
in a moment the two parties were fight
ing desperately. Before many shots had
been fired re-enforcements came for the
bankers. The other residents were arm
ed with shotguns and rifles, and TWO
even carried axes. The rescuers were
running i'll a band down the main street
when the burglars fed, firing as they
ran. The posse, in the darkness, hred
at the flashes of light made by the wea-
pons of the robbers The hunt continued
in this manner for nearly half mile.
The scene presented in the bank was one
of ruin. Nitroclycerin was used, and
the large door of the vault was blown
nearly across the office. The windows
were smashed. a desk was knocked to
pieces, and the protecting inner door OF
the vault was broken into bits. The
steel cash boxes had been removed with
their contents, nearly all in gold.
