After a day and night Of investi-
CATION. the police are no nearer to
q, solution Of the battling robbery
of the safe of Eigbie & Richardson
real estate firm OF $40 Fifteenth St
N. W., than they were at the be-
ginning, 1t was said today.
Because of the fact that the safe
had been locked and the cash
drawer, containing 1896 in cash and
$765 in checks, also was locked
and within the safe, even when dis
covered, numerous theories as to
who might have committed the
robbery were advanced.
Alfred Higbie, 1749 Irving st.
N. W., president Of the firm, claims
that he personally locked the safe
Tuesday night. When it was
opened yesterday, the loss was not
discovered until the bookkeeper
could not find the key.
Al search continued by Higbie,
the bookkeeper and Louis w.
Richardson, 1912 Hobart Pl. N. W.,
secretary and treasurer of the firm,
failed to locate the missing key.
