Attempted Robbery at Godwins Saloon Iron Mountain
A would be thief forced the rear door of C. H. Godwins saloon on Iron Mountain around 2 30 am and stole two revolvers from Mr Godwin who slept beside his safe. He opened the safe but left about $700 in pocket and $6 000 in the safe untouched. The burglar used a file and wood to force entry and escaped without triggering the safe combination. The intruder appears inexperienced and left no trace of cash loss beyond the two pistols.
