RAID YIELDED NOTHING
MASKED MEN IN HOTEL (P.A.) WELLINGTON, Sept. 4. Two masked men are reported to have entered the New City Hotel, Courtenay Place, at 1.55 a.m. yesterday, held up the night porter at the revolver point, and fruitlessly ransacked the office. The men are alleged to have come in through the front door and gone about their task despite the porter’s assurance that there was nothing for them to take from the office.
Guests were moving about upstairs at the time and the intruders retreated the way they had come when their search yielded nothing.
