WARNING TO BUSINESS MEN.
ANOTHER THEFT FRUSTRATED
(Received June 11, 10 p.m.)
Sydney, June 11
In view of the Eveleigh outrage, the police have issued a warning to. business men handling large sums of money to guard, it carefully.
It is stated that there is renewed activity among the desperate element and the "crooks." Whenever a big outrage is successfully concluded it is invariably followed by a series of crimes in other parts.
Two criminals made arrangements last week to hold up a sawmill pay clerk on the outskirts of the city, and engaged motor cycles for the purpose, but the police were informed, and the plot was frustrated. The "crooks" are still under surveillance, and four men are watching every train from Sydney for the Eveleigh suspects.
