MT. CLAIRE. July ls-Bet#een
Saturday evening and Monday morn
ing a peculiar robbery was commit
ted at the Hutchinson mine at Mt.
Glare. Thieves entered the mine
and stole the tools OF about fifteen
miners, mostly foreigners. Other
tools that were not stolen were
broken in such a manner as 70 be
UNFIT for use. The discovery was
not made until dhe men reported for
duty, and they were compelled to
lose the day until they could obtain
other tools.
Almost a wagon load OF tools was
taken and II is mystery how they
were taken away unless there were
a great many persons connected With
the robbery. 1t was at.first thought
that the tools had been hid, but af-
ter a thorough search they could not
be found.
1t was the intention to use blood
hounds to trail the robbers, hut
owing to the uncertainty OF the time
it was committed the idea was aban-
doned.
