RICH HAUL MADE AT
TELEPHONE CONCERN
Burglary Following Close on Lootlng
of Eagles Club Rooms Causes
Great Sensation In San
Bernardino

SAN BERNARDINO, Nov. 2.-The
office of the Sunset Telephone company
in this city was entered under the cover
of darkness last night and when the
cashier arrived this morning 1t was
discovered that a Wells Ergo strong
box, containing $S6250 in money and
$50 in checks, nd been taken.
The telephone building is situated
less than block from the heart of the
business district nd Though a bright
light was burning at the entrance and
operators were on duty upstairs, the
burglars made off with the box and
it's contents without detection. A win
dow had been left open and 1t was
through this,s it is believed, that one
of the men entered, possibly handing
the heavy box out to confederate.
The police have absolutely no clew and
it is not known how many men are
implicated, although one could have
successfully made the haul. The box
was locked in closet In the cashier 8
office.
Following fast after the robbery of
the Eagles clubhouse the night pre-
vious when $62 in cash was taken, the
burglary of the Sunset Office caused a
sensation. 1t is the belief of the police
that both robberies were made by per-
sons thoroughly acquainted with con-
ditions in the two buildings
1t is also learned that October an
attempt was made to break into the
strong box, but was unsuccessful, the
burglar departing after breaking one
lock
