Detectives from Police Headquarters
yesterday were engaged in an effort to
secure some clue which would lead 10
the discovery OF the burglars who
broke into the store OF Kirk Parrish
company. clothiers. 627 East Broad
street, and stole clothing valued at
about $500. The robbery was commit
ted some time during, "Wednesday
night. but up to an early hour this
morning the detectives had been UNI
able TO secure anything definite upon
which TO work. Descriptions OF the
stolen clothing have been sent to all

TO get n trace Of the missing goods.
Entrance was gained to ,hc building
through back door. after one or more
OF the robbers had climbed high

door was stout one, braced with q
heavy iron bar and the burglars
found II necessary TO pry 1t with such
force az to bcnds this bar. After this
was done, the doors were forced open
sufficiently far for tho men TO squeeze
through into the store. AS three suit
cases were among the articles missed
II Is thought tho robbers carried away
their loot In these.
POLICE SAY SIX MEN
TOOK FART N THEFT
According TO the opinion OF dctcc-
tlHcs at work on the case. six men
were engaged I'm the robbery. They
base this estimate on the fact that
several were required TO bend the iron
bar brac'ng tho door and the fact that
six overcoats six hats. six fancy vests
six cameo pins. six watch chains and
eighteen shirts were among the goods
stolen from the store. In addition to
these articles. were ten dozen ties. two
fancy overcoats. five evening suits
twenty mixed suits. ten boxes Of six
socks and several lapel buttons
The police have only checked cap
and two buttons upon which TO start
an investigation rs To the identity ~
tho robbers. These articles were found
on tho noor OF tho store Yesterday
morning by two clerks, and are
thought 10 hav" been lost by tho bur
glars. The buttons were discovered
near the rear loo~. through which tho
men squeezed. and ii is thought tho
were torn from their srits in getting
into tho building The cap was found
on several overcoats which had been
dcadcn the sound OF tho robbers foot
steps.
The fact that circus d!shaudcd in
Richmond on "Wednesday mint, and
that there were an unusually largo
number Of persons on the sire Z ut late
hours. caused tho police to believe That
several men. carrying heavy suit cases
and a quantity Of clothing. would no:
have been noticed had they boon seen.
Many OF the clothIcrs kept their stores
open until carly morning. selling goois
