SAFE GRACKERS POORLY REPAID Blow Open Strong Box| of Saloon but Get Little Plunder. Oakland Office San Franeisco Call, 1118 Broadway, March 14. Safe crackers blew open the safe in ‘William ¥. Hurll's saloon, northwest cor- ner of Fifth street and Broadway, last night, the plunder secured being little, | consisting of a gold watch and chain and a small amount of money. The burglar entered the saloon by a rear door, foreing it with a jimmy. Aft- er rifing the cash register, they turned their attention to the safe. First the com- bination knob was knocked off. In the lock a small amount of explosive was inserted and fired from a fuse. Empty- ing the safe of books and papers, the burglars found little to reward them. When Bartender Frank Roach opened the saloon this morning at 5:45 o'clock he saw the evidences of the intruders’ visit and speedily notified the police. The safe was not badly damaged, only enough explosive being used to move the bolts back far enough to admit of open- ing the door. Will Give Organ Recitals.
