The iron fence sur 1 rounding the factory had been I smashed through in one place ard | two windows faCin. the street at that point were broken. One of them appeared 10 have been struck l by a fender of d car. The sash was l torn out and not q pane of glass was left whole in the entire window. l The other window did not suffer so
 much. having merely one broken
 pane of glass. The damage was at
 tributed to an auto, but the matter | appears more complicated when 1t is noted that between the fence and 1 the factory is q four-foot ditch, 12 | feet deep. To cause the damage 1t did to the factory it would almost
 seem necessary for the car to jump that ditch. AS vet the local con- stabulary does not seem to have a clue to the whereabouts of the ma chine that did the damage.
