STEAL
HEAVY ORDERS
Burglarize Furnishing Store
and Garage at Hagerstown;
Rob Theatef Lobby

Hagerstown, Md, Oct. 21.-Fol-
lowing series of burglaries COM
mitted in this city during the Ha-
gerstown fair last week, the boldest
and biggest robbery in recent years
was committed early yesterday
morning, when the clothing and
gents, furnishing store of Samuel
M. Shafer, on the main business
block on Washington street, was
broken into and looted of goods esti-
mated at between $4,000 and $4,000
in value.
1t Is believed the thieves had an
automobile in waiting in the alley
in the rear of the store in which
they made their escape. Entrance
was gained by breaking a panel in a
rear door. The thieves packed cloth
ing, silk shirts, overcoats, ETC., in
stolen suitcases. The store is To-
Gated next to an all-night restaurant
half block from the courthouse
and about block from police head
quarters. 1t is believed that the
robbers were from out of town.
The heaviest haul made by thieves
was at the Ditto garage on West
, Washington street, where two large
were stolen. The police are puzzled
to know how the girders were got
ten away.
Two men were detected in at
tempting to burglarize the residence
of John r. Schindel, but the ma
rauders were frightened away. Cash
boxes, each containing money, were
stolen from the lobby of the Mary
| land theater and the postoffice.
