AT MYRTLE POINT RECENTLY i
Coos Hay Times Explains Methods
Employed By Iteggmcn.
The Coos nay Times, In recent is
sue, has tho following complete re
port of the recent robbery of the1
bank of Myrtle Point:
"i(:tnk robbers looted the bank of
MvrMo Point and made n safe get
away with about $12,000 in gold and
eurronry. The robbery was not dis
covered until this morning and whe
ther It occurred lust night or Satur
day night is uncertain,- but it is be
lieved to have occurred Sunday ninht.
"There is no clue ns to the identity
of tho robbers or how many partici
pated in tho daring theft.
"President Benson and Cashier
Rackleff have sent outside for detec
tives to come here and take up the
rase. Pcndine their arrival nothing
is being disturbed so that any finger
prints or other evidence that may
have been left behind will not be dis
turbed until the detectives have an
opportunity to examine It.
"Entrance was gained through the
second story. The burglars made
their way into the law offices of
Louis Roberts and moved the book
case and cut a hole through the floor.
The hole was about a foot and a half
square, Just large enough for a man
to get through. Then a hole was cut
through the brick wall that formed

the roof of the vault. The wall was
comparatively thin and easily cut
through. Then the burglars must
have lowered themselves into the
vault.
"The safe was an old-fashioned
one. but had been equipped with a
fin time lock. It is presumed that
the combination was knocked ofr
with a heavy sledge and the dynamite
or mtro-glcerine used on the inner
doors. A fuse twelve or fourteen
inches long was used in setting off
tne cnarge.
"Cashier Ed. Racleff said that he
thought there .mist have bean two
charges used iu blowin? open 1 he
safe. There was no indicatl-m of the
safo havi.i bsen i rilled
"As to whether dynamite or nitro
glycerine was used he was not cer
tain, but when he opened the vault
door this morning there was an aw
ful stench of powder.
"The safe blowers must !:iv her
f.''".ts in heir li i- a d timed J:e
carges f-osely. !: was necessary fcr
them to lower thmeselves, into the
.'u.M and nrrnn the charge and
light it and then get out through the
top, back into Roberts' law offices or
elsewhere while the explosion oc
curred. They could not rcuain in
tho vault or they wouiii hae been
killed by th(, explosion.
"Cashier Rodilei'i said today ilrtt
they were not certain just liuw much
had been taken as they had n t mol
ested the vault after th5 robbery was
discovered. They decided to leave it
just as it was so that any finger
prints or other, marks that might aid
in identifying the robbers could be
secured by the detectives as soon as
they arrived.
"He said that, the Interior of the
va u 1 1 w as cove red w I f h deb lis a n d
some, silver was In evidence on the
floor. Until the vault Is gone through
and everything In checked up, it will
be Impossible to ascertain the exact
amount.
"Mr. Rackleff said that the bank
carried about $12,000 cash, keeping
on hand a larger amount recently on
account of the railroad work and
other demands for it in that section.
"Most of this was In gold, in fact,
a larger percentage of it. There was
some currency in bills of various de
nominations and considerable small
change.
"Most of the gold was insaeks but
some was loose in the money drawers
of the safe. (
"The bank did not carry any bur
glar insurance, and so the loss will
fall on the Institution, However, the
bank's stock Is held by about twenty-four
of the leading men of the
upper Coquille valley, so that the in
stitution will nt h ini'"ired in the
slightest degree by 'ha lo&s. The bank
had a surplus of $5,000, which can
be applied on the 1 . : ul ie bal

by the stockholders.
"Neither Cashier It- Itle:.' nor
President Benson visited the bank
yesterday, no one having entered it
since the closing hour Saturday
night. Even if tliey had thede were
no outward appearances outside the
vault that would have indicated the
robbery. The bank room is kept
lighted during the night and the bur
glars evidently thought it safer not
to attempt to work from the bank
