Paris, March 2O.--The government
tonight issued a reassuring statement
concerning the strike in which the

(Ry United Press Leased Wire.)
SEATTLE, Feb. 10. - Mike
Rasich is today mourning the loss
of $50 In real money and at the
same time congratulating himself
upon escaping prosecution for at
tempted passing OF counterfeit
currency.
Rasich says he was walking
along the streets of Portland a
few days ago when he saw man
drop a bill from his pocket. A
third man picked 1t up. The
finder agreed to divide the money
and Rasich was willing. He gave
the man $50 and took the bill
which had Just been "found" ana
which called for 500.
Last evening when Rasich tried
to pass the 800 stage money at a
local drug store he was arrested.
After laboriously explaining to the
police how he acquired the bill he
was released.
The supposed century note was
stamped on one side with like
ness of Cassie Chadwick and the
picture of q bank, across which
the word "busted" was printed. A
motto, II need the money" was
across the face of the bill. At a
distance the note looked genuine,
but on close examination 1t was
impossible.

SAFE;
GET $1,000.
SAFE-CRACKERS MAKE BIG
HAUL AT KAPOWSIN, THEN
ESCAPE ON IT. Il. HANDCAR
-BELIEVED TO BE IN TA-
COMA.

After blowing open the large
safe of the Schuh Brothers. gen.
eral merchandise store at KapOw-
sin with a charge OF nitrO-glycer-
Inc, and taking nearly 200 in
cash and checks, experienced safe
crackers last night stole a hand
car from the KapOwsin yards and
escaped.
The robbers sped down the Ia
coma Eastern line to Fern Hill
Junction, where they derailed the
car and disappeared.
The demolished safe was dis
covered thas morning when en-
ployes of the store appeared for
work, and the hand-car was found
by railroad men soon after. No
clue was left as to the identity of
the men.
They broke into the store by
forcing open the rear door with
pickaxes and hammers. Then,
with adept skill, they made a cup
of soap at the top seam of the safe
door and poured In the glycerine.
The explosion blew the large door
OF the safe completely off it's
hinges, and laid open to view the
entire contents of the steel box.
About $500 In cash and $400 in
checks, besides number of val
liable papers, were taken. The
safe is the only one in Kapowsin
and is about eight feet high.
Sheriff Morris was notified and
Deputy Stenso was detailed on
the case.
1t Is believed that the safe
crackers came into Tacoma after
leaving the hand-car near Fern
Hill, and the police are on the
lookout for them today.
