Burglars numbering, according TO
Investigations Of the state police,
two or three, last night entered the
store owned by John and Edward
Cole and formerly owned by f. f.
iIoniss, situated on Worthington
ridge near Hudson street, and es-
capped with cash and merchandise
amounting to approximately $3.50.
Gaining entrance by forcing the
cellar door. the burglars evidently
had hours at their disposal as every
Indication points to prolonged
stay on the job. The safe, a heavy
IRON affair, was blown apart by an
explosion which is thought to have
been caused by the use OF nitro
giycerine and the stock of the store
was strcwn around in a manner
which hints at malice aside from the
robbing of the store.
Drinking soda water as they
worked, the thieves filed the lower
hinges of the safe with a steel saw
appropriated from the stock and,
muftling the sound with handana
handkcrchiefs taken from the
shelves. blew the top bolts OF the
safe from their position. Cash
amounting to $3.50 was removed
from the safe.
Edward Cole, who discovered the
robbery at Z o'clock this morning.
said that he visited the place at
about 10 O'Clock last evening and
had found everything in order. The
cash, as rule, was not left in the
safe but last night the proprietor
decided to store the money in the
safe and placed the valuables in an
interior compartment inside the
safe, locking the drawer the money
was placed in. The key, which vas
deposited in the lower part of the
safe, was missing when the burglary
was. discovered. A few pennies were
removed from the cash drawer.
The bandits had evidently taken
things easy as they worked. Signs Of
soda drinking as they filed their
way into the safe We're evident
