Safe blowers' battled with Frank Caldwell, Cald-well, night yardrnaster of tho Rio Grando .Western railway, early this morning, after having blown open tho vault doors of tho Continental Oil company's com-pany's offices. Tho two crooks lied through tho darkness and escaped In tho railroad yards near tho sccno of their crime.'1 Their tools wore left behind. Caldwell had been left to guard tho placo by tho rilght watchman, who was notifying the pollco by 'phono that tho safo was attacked. Tho watchman wrin returning from lunch whou ho honrA fh,. noise of tho explosion of a chargo of nltro-glyccrino. This toro apart tho vault doors, exposing tho small sufo within. In this latter was a largo amount of money. As the watchman heard tho explosion ho saw a man near tho oftlco building, which stands on Second South, near tho Intersection of tho railway tracks. This man dodged behind tho oil tanks. Tho watchman ran and found Caldwell, whom he left on guard with his revolver. As Caldwell watched ho saw tho cracksmen leavo the building and run toward tho railway yards. CaldwelL fired aftor tho fleeing crooks. Thoy stopped and returned tho fire. Caldwell Cald-well fired flvo Bhots, and tho robbers at least as many. By this time polico headquarters head-quarters was talking over the wire with tho watchman. Tho wagon camO to (he ticono on -a run, beoring Scrgt. Kddlngton and Patrolman Smoot. 13y this tlmo the thieves were gone. A Jimmy, some fuse, a punch and a brace were found by tho twisted vault dcors. why Superintendent Jones bought from a meat market thirty pounds of mutton ror W cents and fed lt to tho inmates. And is it not truo that tho steward advised one of tho inmates, for whom ho had a liking, "not to cat any mutton today?" Also, If tho steward did not show him tho bill for tho 3-ccnt meat? Fourteenth Is lt not a fact that Superintendent Super-intendent Jones pay-B llttlo attention to tho Infirmary, but that tho real superintendent superin-tendent Is J. II. Ilnyford, who is on tho toll as steward, but who performs nothing noth-ing In the chnractor of a stownrd's duties? When the Dcsoret News answers theso fourteen questions. Tho Tribune has a few more, touching the mismanagement oi tho Infirmary. Especially would tho public bo pleased to hear what tho News has to say about questions Nos. 1, 2, 4, 5. G, 0 and 10. Now, do nor "ramble," Brother Penrose. If tho News has not tho spaco for such temporal subjects, TJic Tribune will publish pub-lish the explanations. Tho public desorves to know, and since it Is n. sort nt fnmiK- affair let tho facts bo heard. Iho Dcseret News, without searching the reco.-ds of tho county, makes a brond denial that ihe public funds of Salt Lake county arc diverted Into Mormon business busi-ness houses.
