BY STEEL SAFE
Make Vain Attempt to Open
Doors at Grand Forks
Concrete Co.

Thieves entered the office of the
Grand Forks Concrete company,
Ninth and University avenues, We'd
nesday night and made an unsuccess-
full attempt to rifle the steel safe of
the concern.
The maraudcrs entered the shed in
the rear Of the office by means of a
window. and then forced the rear
door by means Of tools found in the
shed.
They then wheeled the large safe
out of the Office into the shed and at
tackled the doors with hammers and
chisels. They succeeded in breaking
hole in one of the doors but were
unable to make a large enough aper-
ture to get at the contents. The safe
contained 81 in cash and papers
Only pair of mittens which had
been left In the Office were taken.
The attempted robbery was discov-
cred when the office was opened for
business this morning. A set OF foot
prints leading away from the rear
Of the Office would seem to indicate
that one at least of the would-be
thieves was boy.
The matter is now being investigat-
ed by the local police. ~

TEMPORARY FOOT
BRIDGE HELD Up
Safety First" to be Motto
of the Council in the
Matter.

The construction of temporary
foot bridge over the gap in the de-
Mers avenue bridge will not be al
lowed until the safety Of such a
structure has been thoroughly invcs-
tigated by the Grand Forks city coun-
Gil.
The matter will be considered In
more detail at the regular meeting
of the council to be held next Mon
day night.
A request for permission to build
such a temporary, path was received
late Wednesday from the East Grand
Forks city council. Mayor ]. A. Din
ME replied. however, that ne had no
authority to authorize such struc-
ture.
1t is pointed out that II the tempo
rary bridge was built this city would
become liable for any accidents to
pedestrians which might occur there
on the bridge being owned by the
city. This is the opinion of City At
torney j. b. Wineman in the matter
AS it may be two months before
the construction of permanent
bridge is begun, however it is pos
sible that some sort of a temporary
bridge may be allowed.

lawn and arrested eleven men, charged
with committing misdemeanor by ac-
cepting cash bets on the races The
prisoners were hustled into two police
wagons and an automobile and carried off
to the 2S3d precinct station house, where
they were admitted to bail In $500 each
to appear for trial at the Jamaica court
to-day.
Few OF the racegoers knew of the ar,
rests, which were made quietly Just as
the horses were going to the post for the
fourth race. the Hudson Stakes, for two
year-olds. the big event OF the afternoon.
Third Deputy Commissioner Leon Cooley
engineered the raid and accompanied
Lieut.. Mcdonald and eleven detectives to
the track.
The racetrack police took no hand in
the arrests. Under the Instructions OF the
management the Pinkertons have. how
ever. been doing their best to discourage
any passing of money In making bets.
Several men who took money enclosed I'm
envelopes were watched. with the idea OF
excluding them from the track when proof
should be forthcoming. No statement
could be obtained from the officers Of the
Queens County Jockey Club last night, but
they have put themselves on record as
