Last Sunday a woman reported to Max Goldberg, president of the S8an Francisco Collateral Loan Bank at 538 Kearn: street, saying =he had been disturbed for four rights in succession by the opera- tions of safe-crackers, who were drilling and filing in an effort to reach the interior of the vauits of the bank. Goldberg at once sent for the detectives and an inves- tigation was begun. The woman impart- ing this valuable “tip” to the president stated that she occupied .a room imme- over tne large steel repositories and she declared she knew what she was talking about. For a long time the detectives searched the premises.

With blood in his eye, cartridgeg in his revolver and a plentiful supply of @whisky in hig stomach, Charles Murray rode into Sunol last night. He increased the sup. ply of blood in his eye and whisky in his stomach and decreased the number of cartridges in his revolver while he took possession of the town for about an hour. Murray came from somewhere out of the darkne: in the canyon over near | Pleasanton. As Sunol is a very quiet lit- tle town Murray's presence was soon no- ticed, for a fusillade of shots from a re- volver does not occur there every night | in the week. When the shots attracted the | attention of the good people of SBunol and | they peered cautiol out into the night | they beheld Murray charging up and down the main street shooting as he | | went. This was not exciting enough, so Mur- ¢ did the usual thing In such cases made and provided. He rode his horse into the saloon owned and operated by a man named Ager. Murray wanted more whisky and when it did not come fast enough he shot a few bottles to pieces with his revolver. This accelerated the | movements of the barkeeper and Murray | added still more to his overplus of whisky and blood, During these antics Murray's horse was ‘Chflrging around the saloon and a large | | ofl lamp was overturned. In a moment the room was In a blaze, and Murray rode his horse out into the back yard. Here he found himself enclosed with a high | board fence on three sides with no hope | of escape and the burning saloon on the | other. igging his spurs into his horse he | charged through the fire and down the | road up which he had come. , | | _The people of Bunol turned out to fight { the fire first, and when they had suc- | ceeded in putting that out they turned to | look for Murray. But Murray had al- | ready gone and nothing remained but the damaged saloon and the recollections of a lively night for Sunol LITTLE ONE DYING FiDM | EATING RAW VEGEI‘ABLES‘ | Terrible Case of Poverty and Sick- ness Discovered in a Room | on Folsom Street. ! | A sad case of poverty and sickness was | brought to the attention of the police late | st night.
