THERE’S MONEY IN ASHCANS
WINNIPEG, Dec. 17, Hidden in ashcans ia various parts of the city, a small fortune is sought by police searchers who already have found half the £2OOO loot taken from the Bank of Montreal on Saturday. The robbers got away quickly from the scene of the hold-up, and the police wore puzzled, when making arrests two hours later, to recover no booty. One bandit confessed that they had distributed the loot in 10 ashcans, and the police commenced a .speedy hunt. Judges are now ordering Hoggings in addition to prison terms in an endeavor to check the prevalence of robberies.
