aafe -breakers, the guns, representing as
sault. And the story of thla latter con
flict, that ha been going on since the
first receptacle for valuables was designed
about 109 years ago, shows forth as bril
liant a picture of a tilt between two clssses
of ' society as time's records have vr
shown.
"There la (nothing made by the hand of
man that cannot be unmade by th hand
of man." It la this familiar quotation that
th makera of aafea, since the first safe
was made and opened, have sought to prere
fallacious; and It is thla same quotation
that the safe-breakers, bine one of their
number broke open the first safe, hare
sought to prove correct. And although to
day the defensive powera appear to have
th decisive upper hand, that upper hand
has been gained only after a struggle of
wits extending over the entire period of
modern business. How long, moreover, the
hand will correctly bear Ita present ad
jective ' remains for the newspaper of to
morrow .' or the day after tomorrow to
chronicle maybe, Indeed, for tonight's spe
cial edition.
. riret Plaa ( Skill,
The flrat safe,- aa we know safes, was
Invented about a' century ago by a man
named Fttsgerald, and opened by a man
named Relm.. Or, to be more exaot. a
duplicate of the initial safe, serving Us
purpose In a financial establishment, auo
eumbed to th cunning of the Initial safe
breaker.' This first safe In the records of
the safe-maker versus safe-breaker battle
.was, ' judged ' from modern standards, a
clumsy affair' Indeed, and yet It marked
the first step In the Increasingly Intricate
campaign of the concealing of valuable.
Th Fltsgerald safe was made of Iron and
was built, square. It was a formidable
thng to look at, and appeared Invulnerable
a far aa- th' powers of the dark' wer
concerned..' It attracted world-wide atten
tion, aad was proclaimed to be th un
doubted herald of a jiew day In th pro
tection of property. Imagine, then, the
subsequent, rnnsternnUon when it was dis
covered .one morning that th Criminal
Rratit. had opened 'the safe (and hauled
away Jts contents) by the simple method
of drilling a hole in the side and opening
the lock from within. Here was something
the safe-maker had not taken Into con
sideration. He had worked on a look that
could not be opened from th -outside, but
had not thought about the possibility of
opening It from tb Jnsld. A a result,
there came about, the second stag In the
tilt. "We must make the walls of th
safe of aoma metal that cannot be drilled,"
decided the maker, Steel was employed,
and temporarily the breakers wer. non
plussed. .But one, irlght there cam along
. a. Criminal J?ralr ,wWb a jiew-fclnd of drill,
and safe numbar two fen before Us cun
ning. Science, however, came to ' th aid
of the aafe-maker, steel.-of another kind
waa made which -would withstand the drills,
and again th safe-breaker was baffled.
After fighting Ineffectually with their
tool against th walla of these newer
safea, th safs breaker about alxty-flve
years ago figured It out that the makers.
In their affort to perfect tb walla of the
aafe, had failed to keep pace n th mat
ter of Improving the door of the safe. And
. th Criminal Brain at one began to ac'eme
agalnat the door, which th aafe-maker
had Beamingly forgotten in his haste to
make the aides unassailable. Then came
th era of.-th wedge. At this stage of
the tilt, the tiny cracks abovs and be
neath the safe door were hit upon aa the
lines of least resistance, and, by th use
of muffled hammers, -drills, and wedges,
th safs-brakr managed either to break
open the door, by widening the crack above
r below it. to Insert saws and separate
It from th bolts. No sooner had th
Criminal liraln hit upon this method, how
ever, than It foe, the Inventive Brain, de
signed an Interlocking door, aeoonded by
a series of protecting flanges that ellml
nU4 the dangerous cracks. With the body
of th. safe' proper thus protected agalnat
his .skill: , the' safe-breaker was again
earned, until one of hla number figured
out that. wh.M the body of the receptacle
Itself had been safeguarded In every way
by the- makers; the central object of the
InvenUon-the lock-still remained vulner
able. And. as a result, the era of lock
attack came about. In those day, th
lock was built out and was a thing apart
from th body1 of th safe. It afforded
a comparatively easy attack for th Crim
inal train. ' which declared that It was
ot to bs opened in th manner In which
a lock Is usually opened, but that It waa
to be attacked as an object separate from
the body of the safe. Drills were brought
Into play, the lock spindles were broken,
and, the safe waa opened. Then the locks
wsre made part of the body of the aafe
and. for approximately ten yeara, ths safe
makers had th safe-breakers outwitted.
Bea-lanlng of BiiImItm. .
This brings us to about fifty years ago'
ana 10 me melodramatic beginning of the
more modern phase of the conflict, to the
Introduction into th battle or explosives
on the part of the criminals. la tb period
of tea year during which the Criminal
Brain found Iteelf beaten by th Scientific
Brain" it did not' atop working, planning,
experimenting and achemlng; and the r
salt of all It scheming took th form of
nitroglycerin: 'Here, again, was an ale
Saent the aafe-maker of those days had
(ailed to take Into consideration and for
many a year subsequently ths battle be
tween the two aide became fiercer and
mora complex than ever. Finding that tools
alone would avail them nothing agalnat
the- sturdy structures of steel that the
efe-makers had Invented, ths safe-break-ar
enlisted, by way of what a prominent
late expert call "secondary assault." the
xplosive. WHh the aid of drills, which,
while Ihey could no longer make openings,
still retained sufficient strength to make
cracks In the safe, the explosfve was glvea
a hold. and th door of th saf subse
quently forced out. Where drills proved
tneffectl agalnat th metal fh Criminal
Brain discovered that all that was neces
sary to circumvent the satfe-maker was t
ax-rape off a line of the paint on th aafe
and. along the acraped channel thus made,
to "aoup" the explosive that is, to work
the nitroglycerin Into and down th aur

by mean of a suction pump, to draw It
down Into th safe.
Cnsekaaaea Onteneval4.
If th safe-breaker believed that they
had outwitted the aafe-makers In turn
for any length of time, however, they wer
doomed to disappointment, for her again,
as before, the Scientific Brain outgener
aled them. Paint waa entirely eliminated
from th surfaces of th safes and. In ad
dition, th wall ware mad, not of on
specie of steel, but of two. Soft and
hard steel, in alternate layers, that have
com to th five-ply' point and will break
th strongest drill,' wer tested and put
Into effective us. Thus was the drill
beaten. -Then th door waa further pro
tected by making It, when cloaed, a part
of th solid, even aafa surface. Every po
sibl suspicion of crack was thus covered.
Ths air-tight aafe, against which ths us
of nitroglycerin la practically Impossible,
aounded the final death-knell of th Crim
inal Brain In this particular direction.
Further protective measures In safe con
struction war tb gradual thickening of

Its entirety, a big boiler; the general use

so that th combination lock Is hidden, ths

may be removed and kept separate; spin
dles built with offsets, so that they can
neither be driven In nor palled out; and,
finally, absolutely perfect Interlocking
door-Jamba that defy explosive.
Gettlnar th Inside.
Appreciating that effective obstacle had
been thrown In Its way and that It was
wsll nigh Impossible to get Into the Inside
of a safe from the outside, the Criminal
Brain began to lay lta plana toward 'get
ting Into the Inside from th Inside. And
her still another phaae of th constant
romance presented Itself. A number of
years ago two prospective safe-breakers
succeeded In obtaining employment In two
different safe factories, worked over a
period of years In the various departments,
gained all the Information that they de
sired, and, subsequently working together,
managed to baffle th safe-makers by their
skill In opening complicated safe lb dif
ferent parts of the country.' ' Th polle
wer at a loss to understand how ths safes
had been opened, and only upon the appre
hension of the two men several years later
was It, learned that the Job bad not been
"inside" ones, aa waa originally suspected,
but had really been th work of two men
who had been Initiated Into th mysteries
of safecraft, and had put their knowledge
to criminal us. This put the safe-makers
on their guard, and an exceedingly com
plicated system was Immediately put Into
force, whereby not only was the pedigree
of every workman looked into closely, but
the work among th employes waa ao sepa
rated that no on man or two men oould
gather -enough Information about a safe
to put It to dangerous us afterward.
Furthermore, when an' employ la ' dis
charged or when he voluntarily leave his
position his actions are watched, and, al
though the aafe companies refuse to discuss
this partioular point. It Is a matter of
record that any former employe of a aafe
oompany whd la possessed of Intimate
information regarding the secrets of that
company's aafea la kept under urrelllanc.
Spotter Gnard.
As an illustration of tb thoroughness
with which this Is dona there may b
cited th case of a former superintendent
of one of th principal companies, who was
discharged eight years ago for intoxication,
who subsequently' sought and obtained a
position ' as superintendent 'of an Iron
foundry In' th middle west,' who' has" now
held that position for th last seven years,
who has don hi work well and . who la
yet kept'undee the eye of a detective In
th aafa company'a pay. There la not the
slightest reason ' to doubt the man's in
tegrity, but aa has been suggested by the
man's employer, who' know his superin
tendent Is being watched, the safe com
pany seems unwilling to take th slightest
chance.
These, then, are th main points thus far
In th tournament of wits between the men
who make the aafea and the men who have
tried to unmake them. In a leaser way,
and not marking definite steps In the
struggle between the force of protection
and the force of assault, there have been
resorts to auch trlokery as was evidenced
Hn th case of th famous robbery ofthe
vault safs ot th National bank of North
ampton. Mass., - thirty-four years ago,
which th safe-breaker accomplished prin
cipally through a - set of duplicate' keys
that had been ' mad from Impressions
taken of th original key. But robberies
suoh a these ar In reality only other
form of "inside" Jobs, such as already
have been referred to, and ar not a part

survey of the general safe-maker-breaker

ORIGIN OF "BLACK HAND"
Phrase, Coined by a Reporter,
Adopted by Criminal
Front Abroad.
I
Black hand outrage, murders kidnaping
and bomb throwing now of frequent oc
currence In Chicago, have Isd many per
sons to believe that the "Black Hand" Is
a closely associated secret society, similar
to the Mafia and Camorra. That la not ao,
according to those best Informed. Mono
Nora, or "Black Hand," haa been adopted
aa th common name by th gangs of as
sassins and blackmailers In different parte
of th country In th last seven year. Th
Phrase was coined by a New Tork reporter
who wanted to get a "beat" while covering
a kldnapiag case. He got the beat, his
paper and finally other papers took Up tha
name In designating crime among the
Italians and Sicilians and the blackmailers
themselves then adopted It.
Today th nam la known throughout
the country, and vn In Italy, It la aatd.
th signature Mono Nera 1 frequently a
potent a factor In wringing tribute from
a victim aa the sign of the drended Ca
morra In Naples and southern Italy or
th Mafia in Sicily.
"Th story of th 'Black Hand' I In
teresting as showing what a aimpte sug
gestion will do "and to what lengths It
may go," said a man who waa familiar
with th origin of th "aoclety." "Follow
ing th murder of th chief of 'pollo In
New -Orleans and tb lynching of hi mur
derers, few Italian crimes cam to th
publie notice until about -nine years ago.
Of course, th Mafia and .th Camorra
were secretly blackmailing wealthy resi
dents of the growing Latin colonies In
thla country, and occasionally there was a
murder. , These, however, escaped , more
than casual mention In the paper.
"It waa In th fail of 1903 that the
carnival of crime among th Italians
broke out In real earnest, snd since that
time murders, robberies, bomb explosions
and Instances of Incendiarism there have
been. The murder of Giuseppe Can tan la,
a grocer In the Red Hook . section of
Brooklyn, New Tork, was the first of
th series of crimes that has continued
with Increasing force. , His , body was
found In sections along the Bay . Ridge
shore. Investigation by the police and
secret servloe . agents showed that . his
grocery store had been a 'blind' for the
more profitable business of "shoving .th
queer' or passing counterfeit coin. Sus
pected . members of the gang that did
him to death were rounded up, but, no
evidence that would warrant a convic
tion being secured they were released.

REUNION ON HISTORICAL SPOT
Proposed Ceremony mt Planting Apple

Forty-six year with their vicissitudes
have obliterated from th tablet of memory
many of th tragic scenes enacted on
the battlefield of Appomattox on April S,
IMS, when two of the grandest armies ot
th world were confronting eaoh other,
awaiting th action of - the chief com
mander of th United State and the Con
federate 8taie of America. U. 8. Orant
and Robert E. Lee.
Those battle-scarred, weakened, half
naked, half-starved fighter under Le did
not want t gtv up, but General Lee
knew It would be a hopeless tack to hold
out longer against the army led by Oen
eral Orant, and on April S. IMK, the south
ern leader agreed to Grant' term ot sub
mission. I
The leader of 'tb two armies met under
an old apple tree near "Appomattox to talk
over the terms of the surrender.-. That
apple tree 1 gone, but If th plans ot
Colonel George A. Armes, U. S. A., re
tired, owner of that historical battlefield
of Appomattox, ar materialised,' Appo
mattox wfll bar an apple tree, a young
one, to be planted In the exact spot where
those rugged furhter of forty-six . year
ago stood and debated on th practical and
of th war. '
' It la th intention of Colonel Armes to
plant th tree en th day that Lee sur
rendered, and on April It Is hoped that
th governors of many states, with tbetr
military staffs, will be present at Appo
mattox when th tree put In the ground.
Colonel Armes has had tha Idea In mind
for many year, but, as he said yesterday,
he did not want the tree planted until, there
waa a probability of a democrat occupying
th presidential chair.
"The chance has oom now,", continued
Colonel Armes, "and with Wilson. Harmon,
and many other prominent democrats
present, ' I am sure there will b nothing
lacking. I had a talk with Senator ; Mar
tine of New Jersey th other day. and bs
Informed me that h would be present."
Colonel Armes has planned to havelthose
who will go to Appomattox -meet at the
Arlington hotel' In Washington, on- th
morning of April 8. Th party will board
a special train and go to Appomattox on
the morning of tha 9th." Those who have
already been Invited are, th governor ot
th several states, with - their mlhtary
staffs, the Grand Army of the Republic,
th Virginia state mllltla, and others. The
party will return to thla city after the
