Burglars in Rooms as Families Sleep

Gain Entrance to Two Homes from Shed Roofs and Ransack Bed Chambers

WEARING APPAREL WAS ALSO TAKEN

Although it was evident that bold burglars who effected entrance through the second story back windows of two South Camden houses early this morning had ransacked the rooms while the inmates lay sleeping, nothing was taken aside from clothing. The places entered were the homes of Frederick Linderman, 817 Broadway, and Nathan Bateman, 1754 South 9th Street.

When the families arose this morning, they were surprised to find that their rear bedroom windows had been forced open. The intruders climbed to the shed roof in each instance, then easily effected an entrance. Then when the families were wrapped in the slumber of the early morning the burglars went about, gathered up some odds and ends of clothing and then decamped. Nothing else of value was taken.

Detective Captain Schregler has his men investigating.
