OFFICE SAFE RIFLED
£BOO IN CASH DISAPPEARS
By Telegraph.—Press Association ’
1 Tauranga, January 22. Early yesterday morning a sum of about £BOO was stolen from a safe in the office of Sir W. G. Armstrong, Whitworth, and Co. here. So far as can be learned, an employee early in the morning took some two thousand pounds from the safe to pay the men on a portion of the works, leaving two cash boxes still in the safe to be taken later by the men elsewhere. When another employee went for the money at about 9 o’clock he found the safe unlocked and the money missing. The two empty cash boxes were found later in the ladies’ lavatory, but there was no trace of the money. No arrests have yet been made.
