Presents Mystery

OAKLAND, May 20.-Concealing
themselves in the Broadway entrance
of the Union savings bank building
while DR.. A. L. Cunningham left his
$4,000 automobile standing at the curb
in front of the Thirteenth street en-
trance. two thieves suddenly made off
with the car and, driving quickly down
Jackson street, struck a telegraph pole
at Tenth street, where they abandoned
the machine with a badly twisted axle
and other damages. The theft oc-
CURED about 10 o'clock last night and
no clew to the robbers has been found.
The automobile was found at Tenth
and Jackson streets by Policeman
Sherry, who succeeded in driving it to
the central station without noticing
any damage. Upon being advised of
its recovery, Doctor Cunningham ap-
peared at the station, and after he
and Inspector Lynch had examined the
car, discovered the damage.
The theft of the automobile was wit
messed by a chauffeur, whose name is
withheld by the police and who was
standing at the Garner of Thirteenth
street and Broadway at the time. He
SAYS that when the two men came out
of the bank building through the Thir-
