MONROE BAUK ROBBED.
Four Men Suspected of the Robbery
Under Arrest-
Between midnight Thursday and
morning Friday an attempt was made
to rob the bank of Monroe. Entrance
co the building was gained by
forcing the front door. In order
ro get tools to work with they broke
pen the hand oar house near the de
pot and secured ft heavy orow bar and
also took a sledge and some other tools
from John Truelove's blacksmith
nop.
When the section foreman Chas
Cummins, went to work this morning
be discovered that the tool house had
been broken open and the bar was
gone, and surmising that something
was wrong went first to the depot and
later up town, and discovered that the
front door to the bank was open. He
at once gave the alarm and an inves
tigation diolosed the fact that therob
bers had broken the combination oftne
the vault but had failed to get into it,
although they used at least one charge
of high exDlosive
wm. Webster, the president, was in
the bank until alter midnight Thurs
day checking up a sale he had clerked
and had the robbers succeeded in
opening even the vauit wonld have
secured several hundred dollars.
In order to make their escape they
stole L. D. Smith's team and wagon,
which were found near the old fish
pond at Columbus and recovered.
Sheriff Carrig was notified at once
and he 6et to work to apprehend the
criminals. This afternoon word was
received that four suspects had been
taken from the train at Silver Creek
and taken to Columbus Monroe Re
publican. Fonr men suspected of the Monroe
bana robbery are safely lodged in tne
county jail and will probably stand
trial under that charge at the present
tession of tne district court.
The story of the robbery is told be
low in detail in an extract from the
Monroe Republican.
Taking np the story at the point
where the stolen team wan found Fri
day morning in west Columbus, four
suspicious looking characters appeareu
in Duncan early Friday morning and
Sheriff Carrig who was notified, went
to Duncan on the first train, arrested
them and brought them to Columbus.
That the sheriff got the right men
is supported by ample circumstantial
evidence. Near Duncan, along the
railroad, where the men had cooked
their breakfast John Sokol a resident
f Ucucan discovered some fresh dirt
thrown np. Digging down he dis
covered two large 44 calibre revolvers
and a full set of safe-blowing tools
including a pint of nitro-glvcerine,
chisels, drills and skeleton keys. And
not far distant, two more large revol
vers were found bnried ia the same
manner. The cloth in which the
(ihiaels and drills were wrapped was
of the same material as that wrapped
around the chisels found in the S-uith
buggy in Columbus Friday morning.
Another bit ot evidence which forms
a most important connecting link is
the positive identification last Satur
day of two of the men by Fred Goke
and Fred Swannon of Monroe as the
men who called at their homes three
miles west of Monroe on Thursday
afternoon and demanded food. When
they were refused food, they threaten
ed to return at night and burn the
houses of these two farmers.
Upon preliminary examination Tues
day the suspects were all held to the
district court and will probably be
ttied this week.
