THs h Cw mM M&kg It Ymd Safe Blowers Pass Up $6,000 As Blast Alarms Chiloquin Gang Steals Klamath Falls Taxi To Carry On Job; Too Much Explosive Used and Safecrackers Make Getaway, Taking a Small Amount of Cash. , Cracking a safe with an extra charge of nitro-glycerine that could be heard all over Chiloquin, a gang of safeblowers, operating out of Klamath Falls, passed up $6,334 in an inner drawer of the safe of the Klamath Supply company at Chilo quin early Tuesday morning, and escaped with a little less than $100 in cash. No trace of the present whereabouts of the safeblowers has been found, but circumstances point out clearly that they returned to Klamath Falls early Tuesday morning. r- A Klamath Falls taxi, owned by Gordon Quimby, was reported stolen on Main street at 11:45 Monday night. Early yesterday morning it was found in front of the old court house on the hill, the speedometer registering over 75 miles, or the exact round trip distance between Klamath Falls and Chilo quin. Sheriff Burt Hawkins, Fire Chief Keith Ambrose, Deputy Snyder and Patrolman Argraves spent practically the whole day at Chiloquin yesterday, inspecting the safe and running down clues. A number of Chiloquin people report hearing a loud explosion at 1 :20 in the morning. The outer door of the safe, some four inches thick, was found 10 feet from the safe. It is believed that had not the explosion been so loud the safeblowers would have attempted another charge to get the $6,334 in -the inner drawer, but apparently they became alarmed at the loud report and fled. Fire Chief Ambrose, who attempted to get finger prints, found .the men. worked with gloves. No tools were found. WhUe the hict 'that so heavy a charge of explosive was used might lead to the belief that the crime was committed by amateurs,. Sheriff Hawkins and the remainder of his party express the belief that it is the same gang that operated in' Klamath Falls in a succession of successful but non-lucrative crackings. .

Hindenburg. the soldier, has become Hindenburg, the statesman, by the simple process of an Inaugural oath in the reich stag. The welcoming tumult of Monday, and the celebratory shouting ot Tuesday have subsided as the new president seeks his first night's rest ln the presidential palace, and despite his eminence as a warrior it is not unlikoly that Hindenburg will subside with them. The Ger man president Is a figurehead In many respects, and during the years Fritz Ebert held the position, his name rarely came to glaring prom inence. The various chancellora and foreign ministers who served under him were most heard of In the out side world. Thousands of person saw Hin denburg drive from Luther's home to the relchstag. Police were every where. A squadron of cavalry ea-' corted the presidential motor. In the river Spree, behind the Telch stag, police tugs scooted about, alert for trouble. There wa none. The elaborate precautions against riot which have made ot Berlin an arm ed camp of policemen, were ample. Qlavn- - of by eipansiou ""'I chief of police local banks.
