SAFE cRAckERs.
They Make Good Haul at Gold
field.

GOLDFIELD, December 27.-Two
daring burglaries including the blow
open of a safe with nitro-glycreina,
occurred in Goldfield this morning
during the early hours. In the Monte
Carlo saloon where. the safe was rob
bed the burglars obtaiNed about $500.
and in the HOFFMAN saloon, scarcely
more than a block further up on
Main street, they broke open the cash
register and secured SO in small
change.
The Monte Carlo robbery bears all
the earmarks OF professional cracks
men and was carried out with a des-
perateness that almost exceeds be
lief. An entrance was effected by
climbing over the roof of an adjoining
building at 4:30 in the morning and
descending by a seldom-used stairway
leading from upstairs. At the time
the place was locked and had pat a
single light burning, the proprietor,
~
Dennis Sullivan, having retired to his
room upstairs several hours previous.
Circumstances appeared to have fay-
ored the burglars from the very be-
ginning, Sullivan having carlessly left
the outside door of the safe unlocked
Investigations made today show
that they had thoroughly soaped all
the crevices of the inner door OF the
safe and at the underneath had IL
serted nitro-gIycerlne. Apparently
all about $500, belonging to the rou
lette and faro tables, laid in plain
sight as the door flew open. Til
safe is a massive affair, weighing
over a ton and standing nearly -four
feet high, toppled over and smashing
| into the corner of the mahogany ba;
hung in the balance at an angle OF
froty-five degrees.
The explosion was heard by many
in adjoining buildings and immedi-
ately revolver shots were fired II
quick succession, many thinking q
| fire had started. Some ran to the ga
loon to investigate and as they forced
an entrance through the front AMI
rear the robbers hurriedly made theIl
exit upstairs and over the roof. IL

BOUNDARY DISPUTE.
Esmeralda County Wants More Of
Tonpoah Property.

Tonpoah Property.
GOLDFTELD, Dec. 2S.-Papers now
filed in the Goldfield Justices court
may bring strange state Of legal
proceedings to decide whether Tono-
pah Is in Esmeralda or Nye county,
as fromerly understood. Former man.
ager George ]. Gels Of the Tnoopah
New England mine has brought suit
before Judge Bell for the sum of $500
for back salary. The bringing Of the
suit here from Tonopah evidences the
fact that all that part of Tonopan
which lies to the west of the Siebert
shaft on the Mizpah ground is now
considered to be within the bounds
Of Esmeralda county.
This stand is known to have been
taken in the land Office in Carson for
some time. Howard Russell, deputy
constable, not very long ago applied
in the latter city for title to piece
of town property he owned in Tono-
pah and was asked by the officials
as to whether his property lay to the
west of the Siebert shaft, and upon
answering in the affirmative he was
informed that his property lie in Es-
meralda county and as such he should
apply for an Esmeralda title.
Should this decision hold good the
greater part of Tonopah is now in Els
meralda county even including the
court house. Truly strange state
| of affairs when it is understood that
Nye county will not give up her Tono
pah without struggle. The bone OF
contention appears to lie in the dis
crepancy in what is known as the
Booker and Sinclaire Surveys. Sin
claire ran a line for Esmeralda.
Bookerss line passes through Ton
opah on the south giving Nye coul
/ ty the prize Sinclair's line passes
through Tonopah at the Siebert shaft
thus giving Esmeralda the greater
part of the town. When the contro
versy is brought to a climax between
the surveys of the whole matter viii
hinge on the exact point of which the
angle of the county line should be
gin to switch to the northwest.

entitled Taxation VS.. County Boards

will treat the subject exhaustively.
While the New Ulm man is probably
prepared to admit that our tax laws
are by no means ideal, he believes that
poor laws are not wholly responsible
for the many faults in the system. He
takes the stand that many assessors,
through failure to grasp the full ex-
tend OF their responsib ilities orthrough
cowardice, fail to list property at its
full value or omit it from the tax rolls,
and that the county boards Of equali-
,zation. influenced by the same reasons,
and through haste, in many instances
only aggravate the mistakes of the first
official. Chairman Eckstein has pro-
nounced views on the subject of taxa
ton and he is the sort of man who
will expound them fearlessly.

Mrs. Johnson's Case Improperly Stated.

Mrs. Mary Johnson Of Evan who is
in this city, having been released from
the county jail after a term on acharge
of being intoxicated, complains that
the papers Of the county have not
stated her case correctly. She says
that she was not married to the man
who is now trying to get u divorce
from her through the matrimonial
bureau process, but after a legitimate
cOurtShip and that she was not locked
up in Morgan, and that there are plen-
ty of people in Evan who know that
her husband has beat her repeatedly
for the past eight or ten years. In her
interview with the Review she used
very emphatic language such as would
not look we'll in print, but if in copy
ing what other papers have said OF her
the Review has done her an injustice
it is willing to do what it can to set il
right. She is evidently having a har6
time getting along and is entitled tc
sympathy if by any chance it can put
her on the road to better things.
