TWO DlRING CRIMES
OF RUSSIAN REBELS
BLOW UP CUSTOM HOUSE AND
ROB TREASURY WAGON,
GETTING $4,000.
SEVERAL PERSONS
WOUNDED BY BOMBS


burg - Second Band of Armed
Bandits Fight with Troops and
Five Are Caught.
St Petersburg, Oct. 27.-TwO bold
crimes were perpetrated by revolu
ZIONIST bandits in the heart of this
city Saturday. In both cases bombs
were thrown by the robbers. In one
the bandits blew up the custom house
and escaped with $297,000. In the
other they attacked wagon convey"
ing money to the treasury and stole
$193, 900, though in battle with the
soldier guard five of the robbers were
captured.
? Heavily Armed, Raid Treasure.
The attack on the custom house Is
regarded as the bOldest raid ever at
tempted by revolutionists in this cap
itaI, already accustomed to expect al
most anything in the war on the gov
ernment aristOcrats.
A band of revOIutiOnists gathered
around the custom house with such
dexterity of movement and such per
feet cooperation that the police were
not aroused.
At a prearranged moment the con
spirators took stations apparently al
lotted to them around the custom
house, and half a dozen heavily armed
men entered the building, their arms,
however, being concealed.
po,ob Tbro,,,,. Tao Huipc,
Approaching the cashier, the rob-
bers demanded that he turn over a
big pile OF money that lay in plain
sight. He refused and turned as If
to call the guard. At that instant
one of the robbers hurled bomb at
him. The explosion took place in the
midst of a large number Of employees,
and ten men were mortaIly wounded
by it.
The bandits, however, escaped in
jury, and before the office force could
recover sufficiently to resist they
seized the money-$297, ,000-and fled
The men at the outside stations were
seen to join them in flight. Soldiers
pursued, but the men separated and
escaped.
The second raid was made on a
wagon carrying cash from the Gus
toms department to the state treas
ury.
Two bombs were thrown in quick
succession at the vehicle as it was
passing a corner near the Ekaterinsk
canal close to a branch of the treas
ury, after which rush was made
for the wagon by a number of armed
men. After exchanging hot fire
with the gendarmes escorting it, the
robbers managed to secure the booty,
$4,000, and fed across a small foot
bridge spanning the Ekaterinsk canal.
They left five Of their numbers in
the hands of the police.
Many bystanders sustained slight
injuries as a result of the explosions.
