VAULT BATTLES
SAFE BLOWERS
Four Cracksmen Fail to Get Into
I0Wa's Strong Box

Dcs MOincs. Ia, Feb -Four safe
blowers early today bound and gagged
two state house watchmcn and made
an unsuccessful attempt TO dynamite
the state vault in the state treasurcr's
Office. The robbers left the capitol
building shortly before daylight with
only fivebdollars which they had taken
from the cash drawer In the treas
urcr's office
The treasury safe contained about
seventy-iive hundred dollars.
Detectives said there is cOnsidera bile
mystery now the bandits got into the
building. They were hidden in the
board of parole rooms when Watch
man Russell, an old soldier, came
along. They overpowered, tied and
ragged him, Russell said, and dragged
him into the treasury office where they
began work on the vault. Two men
were posted as lookaIts, and as
Watchman Carpenter, also an old sol
dier, came along. they grabbed and
tied him. and took him into the treas
ury room ALONGSIDE of Russell, where
one stood guard.
Beyond a sculfle, there was no fight
in either case the watchmon told the
police. Carpenter wiggled out of his
chair shortly after the cracksmcn left
and sounded the warning lie said the
men evidently were experts. 1t is be-
lieved tha men ran cut of explosives.
which may have had something To do
with their decision to quit work.
Two separate explosions had been set
off around the door of the vault and
the men were about To begin the third
just before Carpenter came
along. ~ j. Cay another watchman,
is said by the police investigating the
affair To have been peacefully asleep
in the supreme court room" while the
robbery was in progress
The craftsmen entered the building !
at midnight. After binding and gagginG !
Russell they drilled four
holes in the vault and set off two
charges which failed to open the door.
