ducks may be had in the hunters pos
session at any one time. The daily

STORE ROBBED; SAUK
CENTRE MEN OWNERS
CARPENTER & ROSE SAFE AT
BROOTEN WRECK5D LATE
SATURDAY NIGHT
LOSS PLACED AT $500
BURGLARS LEFT NO CLUES
THOUGHT TO BE WORK OF
AMATEURS

Some time late Saturday night or
early Sunday morning the Brooten
Cash Store, owned and operated by
Ben Carpenter, and Jesse Rose of
Sank Centre, was broken into, the
safe cracked and money and checks
estimated at between $700 and $500
taken. OF the amount stolen the
owners thing about $500 of it was in
checks.
No clues could be gained by Sher-
Tiff Ben Schooner who was invesigat-
ing the looting Monday morning, ex-
cept that two chisels, bit and auger
and a dynamite cap were left. The
safe was wrecked.
Mr.. Rose said that two youths were
seen hanging about the store at IL
p. m. Saturday night and believes that
they were the ones who accomplished
the robbery. They are believed to
have made escape in Ford coupe.
Entrance was gained by boring
holes around the lock of two rear
doors and breaking out the lock.
Nothing was taken except the check
and cash contents of the safe.
The loss represented receipts since
last Tuesday when the last banking
was done.
Mr.. Rose said that a reward of
$500 will probably be offered for the
capture and conviction of the ban
dts.
No sound of the explosion was
heard by residents of Brooten. The
theft was discovered when Mr.. Rose
entered the store at about 9 a. m.
Sunday.
The sound of the explosion had evil
IDENTIFY been muffled by placing blank
etsc over the safe. Nothing was dam
aged except the safe.
The direction taken by the burg
lars after the robbery could not be
determined.
Messrs Rose and Carpenter had
been located at Brooten about three
months moving the stock to the vii
lage from Coleraine.
-"
Following his belief that the rob-
bling of the safe at the Carpenter and
Rose cash grocery at Brooten Sum
day morning was the work of no
vices Sheriff Ben Schooner left for
the Twin Cities Tuesday where he
will search for clues.
A count made late yesterday
showed that about $400 of the $500
stolen from the wrecked safe was in
checks on the North American cream
cry company of Paynesville and that
only about $500 in cash was obtain
ed.
The sheriff said that the door of
the safe had been smashed with
heavy sledge hammers and that the
combination and hinges showed the
marks of having been chiseled off
This caused him to believe that the
robbery was not accomplished in less
than three hours and that the yeggs
were novices. The door could have
been blown off with one shot and
with much less noise than was neces-
sary to smash it with sledges.
Two drawers were taken and in
cluded deed, insurance policy and
cash book.

 Merton Had No Proof
 Merton did not have with him single document or scrap of paper as a basis for the s7,000,0o0 claim. Williams told him the procedure to be followed and dictated and had written out the substantial things to be done to get the claim approved by Miller and Daughtery and get his S7,000,000.
 Merton will testify, MT. Buckner said, that he returned at once to Europe to prepare the company's claim in accordance with instruc- dons.
 "On April ao," MT. Buckner con- tinued, -four days after Williams had spent several hours telling Mer- ton what to do to put his claim through, John Dulles, of the firm of Sullivan and Cromwell, went to see Williams in behalf of Merton, who was his client. Dulles did not men, ton any names but he gave the amount of the claim and other in- formation which made it clear that it was the Merton claim. Williams never told Dulles that Merton had been there but on the contrary in- formed him that the department would never think of paying such a claim involving s7,0oo,o0 and based on pure oral conversation, except by court order"

SLAYER BAGGED ON
 LOCAL POLICE TIP
(Continued from First Page)

(Continued from First Page) companied by Bongiovanni. the Hartford detectives reached Brook lyn a short time after Barberi had gone to Long Island. The man who sheltered him in Brooklyn directed the detectives to Corona and Bar beri was trapped.
 Fails to Out-Move Police
 In the opinion Of Sergeant McCue, who directed the New Britain end of the Hartford murder case, 1t was Barberi's intention to move from place to place in order to throw his pursuers off the trail. Reaching Brooklyn In safety because of the failure of the Hartford police to notify the local police of the mur- der and escape for 12 hours after the crime was committed, Barberi evidently felt uneasy and thought 1t safer to stop temporarily at Long Island. It is believed he planned to make another move within a few hours but the speed of the Hartford detectives after they received Ser geant McCue's tip was such that the fugitive could not keep ahead of them.
 Information obtained by Sergeant McCue indicates that Barberi did not remain at the Beaver street house until II ?. m. Sunday. After his head was bandaged, Barberi, ac- cording to the sergeant's informants, expressed the wish to remain in hiding until nightfall. Although it is not known at exactly what hour he left for Brooklyn, Sergeant Mo Cue believes it was between and 2 o'clock when darkness permitted him to start his trip unmolested.
 Delay Results in Escape
 The fact that Barberi was in New Britain one hour after the murder and remained at least six or seven hours strengthens the belief of the local police that they could have captured him had they known of the murder. They believed Barberi would come to New Britain immedi- ately. because he had friends here, and he thought he could enter the city by several routes without touch ing the main highway, which would be closely watched had the alarm been given. He probably counted on getting here at once, so that he would have time to be safely hidden before the number of police required for thorough watch of all roads loading from Hartford could be re- cruited.
 Had the local police known of the murder within an hour they would have covered the entrances to the city and watched the Italian colony, Sergeant McCue said today. In that event. any man who showed marks of having been in combat would have been picked up al once. Barberi's head was badly cut by an automo- bile bumper swung by Salvatore cousin of the murder vic tim. Bleeding as he was, he could not have reached his destination without having been noticed, had the police been aware of the murder, Sergeant McCue said.
