/ The large hardware store of James +.
Cariin d Sons on King street between Fair
rax and Royal streets was entered Friday
/ night by thieves and sixty-one pistols of
| various calibers and a large quantity OF
| cartridges stolen. The entrance was eff
| fected by means of az cellar window OPEN
| ing into an alley. The window was guard
ed by three heavy iron bars, but the mid
die one had been bent upward by means of
an IRON bar or heavy beam of wood. thus
making an opening sufficiently large for Il
| small man to squeeze through and get into
| the cellar. The thieves made their way up
| the stairs into the main floor of the build
| ing, where they secured the pistols. The
money drawer WAS also broken open but
| 1t was found to be empty.
The robbery was an especially bold one
| in consideration. of the fact thai the. build
ing is on the principal street of the city
ana is on the same block as the police
Stdtiohr tne udck OF the store almost touch
ing the station house. An attempt was
| made to rob the same store about a year
ago by thieves who endeavored to effect
an entrance by boring out u section Of the
back door. p 20
| II Is thought that the thieves have left
| the city with their booty, and the police
| authorities in Washington and other cities
have been. notified to keep lookout for
| them.
The value of the pistols and cartridges
| taken amounts to about $500
