Wednesday, May 3 — Gaining entrance through a small window eight feet above the level of the sidewalk, after having failed to get in through the cellar, burglars early this morning ransacked the store of M. Greenberger, corner of Grand and Lincoln Avenues. The thieves made away with several articles of merchandise and a small amount of money, which had been left in the cash register. Mr. Greenberger says the money taken was less than $10 although he does not know the exact amount.
