W hen accused of a postoffice rob bery, the men said they had found a suitcase along the road near Eu- ;ene which contained the money and st a in is. In the suitcase were 40 10-cent stamps, 100 fives, 413 twos and 4S)ti ones. In small change there were 928 pennies, 51 dimes and 9S nickels. Besides this col lection thev had several dollars in money. Gruff and Davis have traveled practically all over the I'nited States, and aro believed t o have a criminal record.
