The postofiice inspector cannot be-
lieve that the two negroes slashed
the sack and tore open the various
letters and packages merely to find
money. There are circumstances con-
nected with the case that make il
appear that some one was anxious to
get something that the sack contain

mours Powder Company deny that
the shipment of so much money and
securities represented any big deal
they were concerned in. 1t was
merely the weekly transfer of ordi-
nary business and made somewhat
heavy by the fact that it was near.
