Leave No Clue Behind
In FitzsimOns Furni-

REPORT HELD UP
BY POLICE DEPT.

Yeggmen, who were evidently ex'
perts In their line. broke into the
furniture store OF James Fitzsimons
& Co., No S. Grand River-av-. sone
time between Sunday noon and Z
o'clock. Monday morning. and robbed
the safe OF 1926 after blowing the
door from its hinges with heavy
charge OF nitro-glycerine.
Facts surrounding the robbery are
being carefully suppressed by the
police. Following a number of safe
robberies several weeks ago. when
the police could obtain no clue with
which to identify the burglars, the
police adopted policy OF silence
regarding large crimes.
The edict went forth from the SUI
perintendent's office to withhold all
burglary and safe robbery reports
from the newspapers until the
thieves were caught. The police
have no evidence on which to base
prosecution for three burglars
arrested some weeks, ago for rob.
bling the Miller jewelry store safe.
The alleged Miller burglars were
the only arrests made where the
prisoners were held longer than "a
hours in police station.
When Detective Inspector Edward
Fox was asked Tuesday morning,
Tor the verincalion of report OF
the Fitzslmons robbery. he admitted
that there had been safe lob"
in that store, and sent for a police
report. He stated the amount OF
money taken. When asked for the
names OF the detectives working on
the case. he passed the buck" to
the superintendent.
Detective Inspector James Nc
Carly WIS on duty when the safe
was blasted. He made no report
Of it except to the detectives whom
he assigned to the case and to the
superintendent.
The Yeggmeh who entered the
Fitzsimons store, covered up their
tracks so completely that even the
Bertillon experts are baffled. En-.
trance was made through a skylight
on the roof, and doors connecting
the upper floors were smashed In.
The men wore cotton gloves to hide
their fingerprints. Detectives In
the criminal Identification bureau
mace a futile attempt to establish
the identity Of the yeggmen.
Also prowler has been operating
in the Hotel Pontchartrain rooms
and robbing the guests of money
and jewelry. according to informa-
ton received at police headquarters,
Tue sday morning Detective Charles
Finucan. OF the hotel, spent two
hours in the rogue's gallery looking
over the pictures Of hotel robbers
in an effort TO recognize a man he
has seen acting suspiciously around
