Burglaries Hit Murray Elevator Office and Nearby Site

Last night Murray endured burglaries at the Farmers elevator office and the adjacent Jones company elevator near the Missouri Pacific tracks. The Farmers safe yielded about 22 to 25 dollars plus a manager’s fountain pen and a large monkey wrench. No clues or suspects were found, and much of the cash drawer contents remained undisturbed while valuable checks and papers were left intact. The burglars likely fled by a passing freight train after bypassing the outer safe and window entry.
