AUCKLAND PREMISES ROBBED
A FINE TASTE IN LIQUORS,
(By Telegraph.—Press Association.)
AUCKLAND, 30th August,
On Saturday night, while patrolling his beat, a constable discovered that a glass panel in the front door of the premises of Hughes and Cossar, wine and spirit merchants, of Swanson street, had been broken. The constable summoned Mr. P. Hughes, and it was found that after an inspection of the warehouse that burglars had broken the glass in a large showcase upstairs. A large quantity of expensive liqueurs, valued at approximately £30, had been removed. Evidently the intruders were connoisseurs, for they did not touch any of the heavier brands of liquor.
Tobacco and cigarettes worth about £15 were taken by burglars who broke into the shop of S. J. Davidson, grocer, 379, M^nukau road, Epsom, between midday on Saturday and yesterday afternoon.
Burglar's entered a draper's shop at 247, Dominion road on Friday night. Entrance was gained by breaking the glass in the front of the door and opening the lock. Goo da worth £10 were stolen.
