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 BECOMES PRESIDENT
OF GERMANY; TERMED FIGUREHEAD
BERLIN, May 12. 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.
