four millions of assets to meet his
liabilities, which he set at three mil

Auto Bandits Steal Five Cars.

Milwaukee, Sept. S.-Auto thieves
spent busy day in Milwaukee, TAX
ing five cars from garages and from
parking spaces on the street during
the night and in broad daylight. With
in a few moments after each theft
was reported the police apprehension
system had spread detailed descrip-
within a radius of 100 miles from the
city. The fact that not single trace
could be found of any of the autos led
authorities to believe that an organ
lied band of thieves had slipped
quietly into the city, collected their
loot, valued at about $4,000, and dis
appeared as quietly.
