Chalmers Bank Robbers still at Liberty.
The insurance adjusters have already dfijusted the burglary loss of the VanVoorst bank at Chalmers, but the burglars are still at large. The conductor on the south bound evening train says a gang of men came down from Chicago on his train the night of the burglary, some getting off at Reynolds and others at Brookston. One of theta wore a blue cravenette overcoat like the one left in the l»ank. Detectives from the Burns agency at Chicago are working on the case. A grip is said to have been found in the stable of the Chalmers Horse Company containing, some f.ises and an empty cartridge box, but up to this time no clues have sufficient to lead to any arrests. The exact amount of the loss was $2,289. —Monticello Herald.
