They drove up to the gate at the south side in an automobile and broke the gate latch, then broak- ing into one of the lower windows of the shipping room, at the same time dodging the watobman who was mak- ing his rounds in the building at the other end of the plant. The auto was seen standing outside the gate by a | few people, but as this did not look | suspicious no alarm was given.
