It was kept unlocked and a card on it stated this fact. The burglars could not have noticed this card, for they filled cracks around the outer door with soap, poured on a little nitro glycerine which was allowed to soak into the soap, attached a fuse, lighted it, and the lock was destroyed and door blown open. The same operation quickly followed on the inner door and that of the strong box The explosions must have been terrific as the steel, half an inch thick and of the hardest quality was rent asunder like paper.
