Dynamite Attack on Boston Bank
In the City of Boston, Massachusetts, a bank cashier has been in the habit during banking hours of keeping a little trunk full of funds sitting on a shelf on the rear wall of his bank. A few days since some desperadoes, in the busiest hours of the day, exploded a charge of dynamite against the wall from the outside, with the hope of making a hole that would enable them to grab the trunk and run off with it. The charge was so heavy that it not only shattered the wall, but blew the trunk across the room so that the robbers could not reach it. The excitement was such that no one noticed the men that did the deed, and there is no clue to their identity: The ever-increasing daring of criminals is one of the things which show the spirit of violence and lawlessness that is filling the world.
