Safe blowers wreck Attle grocery store with nitro blast
Robbers attempted to force the safe at Damon’s grocery on Queen Anne avenue using nitroglycerin. The blast shattered the storefront and damaged furniture but frightened the burglars away before they could seize about $200 in cash and valuables from the safe. Detectives, led by Tennant, investigated the scene and recovered the damaged safe and furniture.

Franchises Face Scrutiny in City Council Debate
In Weet Beattie last evening a public mass meeting discussed two franchise proposals for an Meattie to West Meattie railway link. No decision was made, but attendees favored awarding the preferred bidder with the best system, while other Montana capitalists led by John Noyer pursued a rival franchise with a $10,000 on file since May. The Beattie Electric Company has filed for its own franchise, now under city committee review, with questions likely surrounding rights and terms.
