Gated i'm Mankato.

Gated in Mankato, and will operate a

bureau. The place is being equipped
with handsome office furniture and

TIRES WERE TAKEN FROM CAR
OWNED BY G. G. NESS
ROBBED OF WIND SHIELD
Inner Tubes Seized Also; Auto
Was Stolen In Mankato
Yesterday ~

Stripped of tires, inner tubes and
windshield. the Buick light six road
ster, belonging to G. G. Ness, stolen
from in front of the Busch wholesale
house yesterday afternoon, was found
by Chief of Police Jack Martin and
Detective John Lulsdorff this morn
ing. The roadster had been run into
the brush on a lonely road in Nicol-
let county, just about across the Min
nesota river from the mouth of the
Blue Earth river.
Leland Cragan, a farmer living in
that vicinity, saw the machine stand
ing in the brush this morning. He
informed a neighbor of the fact and
shortly before noon the police were
notified. Chief Martin Immediately
drove to the spot and found the car
as described.
All four tires and the inner tubes
had been taken and the windshield
had been taken off. The one extra
tire and tube, chained to the rear of
the machine was not molested, prob
ably because it was chained and pad
locked to the rim. One of the mum
bers on the machine was missing al
so.
Had Designs On Car.
There seems no doubt but that
thieves came to Mankato, viewed the
machine and finding it contained just
the size of tires and windshield they
desired, stole it and drove to this
lonely spot to take the parts they
desired. That another car either fol
lowed the stolen Buick to the place
or was awaiting there for the thieves
when they stole the car yesterday
noon seems entirely probable.
This peculiar case of stealing lends
color to the common reports that
cars, after they are stolen are equip
ped with different tires, a different
windshield, often new top and re-
painted. and the owner could not
identify his own property. That
members of gang, who engage in
this work were in Mankato ye3ter-
day, spotted the Buick as having ar
ticles they desired and mapped out
the whole plans for stealing the tires,
oCSiuo fCiy ilhcl1. uc iQStduC6 III :
dicates that auto stealing has prog
ressed to a game of science and skill.
The cushions, tools, robes, extra
curtains, etc., containeS in the car,
loose and easy to steal were not mo.
Tested by the thieves.
Car Stolen Yesterday Afternoon.
The Ness car was stolen from in
front of the Busch wholesale gro
Gerry house where it was left stand :
ing yesterday afternoon. Mr.. Ness,
local insurance man, who owns the
machine, stated to the police that he
left the car standing at the curb
about 1870 o'clock.
At three o'clock the machine was
missing. Police headquarters were
Immediately notified but Mr.. Ness
did not know the license number of
the car and it was necessary to call
ST. James to ascertain the number.
AS soon as possible all cities between
here and the twin cities and to the
south Of Mankato were notified to be
on the lookout for the car.
The Buick had a Minnesota license
number 1887 and was equipped with
non skid tires with one extra tire
Ihere was green cushion in the
seat OF the car. AS the thief or
thieves had nearly two hours start
with the roadster they were given
ample time to make good their get
away. ...,
