USED MODERN METHODS.


Milton, Ind. Dec. 10.--Modern
cracksmen. using the latest and most
approved tools. perated by electricity.
early this morning effected an entrance
into the outer compartment Of the big
safe at the Farmers bank, this place,
securing between $500 and 500. which
was in tray. The ROBBERS used nitro
glycerine on the inner, burglar-proof
door OF the safe almost demolishing
1t, but departed before getting into
the innermost vault, where deposits.
reserve, etc. were kept A second
charge Of the powerful explosive
would have blown the inner door into
small pieces. Various opinions are
offered why the craftsmen departed
before applying the second charge to
the stubborn burglar-proof door. Some
are of the opinion that the 'yeggs"
were afraid the noise of the explosion
had aroused the townspeople; the 9TH
ers say the crooks were afraid that
II they remained In the bank too long
they could be easily trailed in the
snow, which began to fall heavily
about 1870 o'clock.
The cracksmen had no difficulty In
making their escape. using horse
and buggy, stolen from the Frank Nor
ris livery barn.
The interior Of the hank was badly
wrecked by the explosion.
All neighboring towns have been
notified Of the robbery and search
parties are on the hunt for traces Of
the escaping professionals.
Discovery 81 Robbery.
Discovery of the robbery was not
made until about o'clock this morn
ing after the yeggmen had at least
start of their pursuers. Officers OF tie
bank were notified and the institu-
tion was closed during the day until
an investigation could be made by the
officials, the insurance agent, and
detectives who have been notified.
The exact amount Of the loss is not
definitely known but is estimated 1t
between $500 and 500 which was the
money carried over after the Friday
business and deposited on Friday
night within the compartment between
the outer and inner door and the burg
lar-pro0f inner door.
Those who claim to have been
awakened by the explosion say the
report was not loud. No idea - to
the number OF yeggmen in the party
could be given, although officers be-
lieve there were at least three. No
suspicious characters were seen IN or
around Milton or Cambridge City on
