CAP FAILED TO EXPLODE
Burglars Attempt To Blow Open Safe In Vegetable Store But Do Not Succeed And
Escape
WOODLAND (Yolo Co.), April 18 - Sometime during the night burglars attempted
to blow open the safe in the vegetable store of M. MARTINELLI & Company. The
cap failed to explode.
Nitro-glycerine and soap were used in plenty, and indications suggest that
the men were old hands at the business. It is supposed, after the failure of
the cap to explode, that the burglars were frightened off.
The discovery of the attempted robbery was made this morning when the
store was opened for business.
The affair was at once reported to the officers, but at the wiring they do
not appear to have found a clue.


McGrew on Trial
WOODLAND (Yolo Co.), April 18 - The trial of Dean McGREW, who is charged
with resisting an officer, is now being heard before Judge GADDIS. McGREW,
as told in The Bee at the time, had his altercation with Constable HARRISON
at Guinda during a Christmas entertainment held in the church at that place.
McGREW, it is alleged, knocked HARRISON down after the officer had placed
him under arrest. District Attorney HARRY L. HUSTON represents the People
and P. BRUTON the defendant.
