No Shot Heard and Three Men Made Successful Getaway in Crowd. of Mv*t??rv. ! New York. Dec. 16.?Three maskled robbers entered the rooms of a jewelry concern on the eighth floor of an office building in the heart of the Fifth avenue shopping district this afternoon shot and killed Edwin W. Andrews, a member of the firm, boui\d and gagged three other men and. escaped with jewels valued ! at $1^<M)00. Ste. r. from the crowds of Christmas'shoppers passing the building?located -between Forty-fourth and Forty-fifth streets in the center of a group of .department stores, banks and exclusive shops?the men took the elevator ta the floor upon which Andrews', firm*'has offices. Mr. Andrews was alone. Just wjgt occurred, police, investigating: tfie case, have been unable to determine. They believe that. An-j drews attempted to close the door of the safe and that one of the men shot him. No shot was heard in * nearby offices and Andrews was dead i when found. ( Luke Mulligan, a messenger, was * the first to disturb the robbers. As T he entered he was grabbed, bound, ( gagged and thrown on the floor beside Andrews. Two salesmen, Arthur Merthe of Newark and Vincent Prov- ^ enzano, entered soon afterward and met with the same treatment. The two salesmen entered separately. They earned sample eases of jewelry. The robbers "covered" U: them with a gun?believed to hUve jj, been a long barreled revolver or j ^ sawed off rifle, fitted with a silencer ?and took their cases. ' While two ^ of the bandits bound the salesmen,"-a jr third rifled the safe. * Provenzano and Merte later crawl- ?( ed into the hallway, whiere they were n found. A woman stenographer from p a nearby office discovered the two salesmen and her cries brought oth- ^ ers, none of whom had heard any j - - ? - ^ ? I shot. Police, nowever, iouna an ^ empty cartridge in the room. p Police believe the'three men who g. were described as having - the appearance of foreigners, walked down t, the stairs to ?he street and there j escaped by mingling tlirough the e crowds.
