At noon to-day, the Investigation Into the charge
made apainst certain policemen or robbing the store
or taonard, Baker A Co., during the fire on Wednes
day night, was commenced by Mayor Fox.
The Mayor stated that his attention had bnen
called to the various report with reference to the
conduct of some of tho police at the fire at Leonard,
Baker A Co., on Chesnut street, above Second, on
Wednesday night last. He desired a full Investiga
tion, and had taken this occasion to call together
everybody who knew anything of tho clrcumstanoes
with reference to the alleged robbery by the police
men. fUmnnl Tonard, of th firm, related the eIreumoUnce
attending the Ore, ad of widen he hail derived Kixoe the oc
currence ; the firm knew t batinioda had been atolen during
the pmgreeaof the fire ; on a careful examination the firm
hud lout ahont If COW) In thia way : had not formed any pol
tiwe judgment as to who had taken the goods; not being
present, and not knowing who were in the building during
tli(B bre, he could not say who had stolen the goods.
A. II. liaktr, a member of tue firm, atated that ha had
no knowledge of who stole the gmxla, but. he wa sat'sHed,
from the book a. that, goods bud been taken nn the night
of the tire, and by thoae wao were in the baUding at the
time.
Mr. Leonard stated that, as far as the firm waa con
cerned, they had never xtatnd, or given to anv newspaper,
atty information oharging the police with the robbery.
Edwin J. Baker elated thai be waa a salesman in the
house of Leonard. Baker A Co. ; waa present when tue
store waa looked up at 6 o'clock; I arrived at the at-Jre
about a quarter of 10 o'olock on the night of the Are; I
went home and returned about 10 o'clock : Lieut. Killackf
waa at the door ; went through the building and saw a great
many people firemen and others on each of the floors;
polioemen in uniform were there; waa standing in the
office, when I saw a man in dark clothes, with brass but
tons, and a police oap on, coining from where
the silk waa, with silk under his arm ; asked him what he
was going to do with It; be replied be waa going to take it
tn a aafe place ; witnesa told him to put it down, which he
did, placing it close to the window from which led a laddor
to the pavement; the tire was then extinguished ; the
policeman replied "you're interferiag with my duties,"
but he obeyed ; saw goods that were thrown out, but did
not see them after; goods were carried from the third
floor to the first floor; these goods were not at all wet:
wonld not - know the policeman whom I
saw with the (ilk; there was a bolt
of cloth stretched from one of the windows to the ground ;
at half past 2 o'clock witness was sitting at hia front door,
and heard a pistol shot and the springing of rattles; in a
few minutes Mr. Kriwarda said that the ahots had been
fired in the building, and that a piece of cloth had been
thrown from the third story window.
Samuel II. Kdwards, in the employ of the Arm, stited
that the keys were kept In hia possession : he wont int
the building about 11 o'olock that night; the Are was ex
tingiiixhed ; there waa no fire apparatus op th? ground ;
the building was in the oharge of the police, who were sat
ing on the first floor; one or twoof the policemen went up
stairs once or twice through the night ; witness' attnntinn
to stealing going on was lirst attracted by aeoing a valutbla
piece of ailk lyivg near one of the windows in the rear of
the store; witneea went into the rear alley aeveral times
and saw no goods there ; the watchman paid speoial atten
tion to this alley, but reported no goods being
found there; the witness alluded to the tima,
of the firing of a pistol twico, and remarked to young Mr.
Baker that waa queer ; went into tho building, and one of
the policemen said, "There are two men in this building,
they are negroes; I saw two men, can't toll whether they
were cniniog up ar going down, but 1 wns very bold an 1
fired two shots at them;" that was Polioeinun John
McLaughlin; witness remarked, "Why don't you go up
aUirs and see if the trap waa open;" they went up and
came down, and reported the door fastened; at that
time a piece of cloth wrapped up in muslin
waa brought in by a policeman, who Slid
he found it in the alley; the goods taken were
from the second, third, and fourth floors; about half past
6 o'clock Policeman Mclaughlin went into the tipper
atories, and waa there from five to seven minutes; on bis
return to the second floor he went to a tior of esses whore
were stowed the valuable sowing silks and fine silk hand
kerchiefs; 1 met him at the head of tho landing; he went
tn the cases and opened the doors; 1 followed him and
asked him what he whs doing ; he slid, "There are two men
in the store and I am hioking for them ;" these caoes were
so small that but small boxes were kept tn them.
Fire Marshal Blackburn arrived on the griund soon
after the tire broke out; found a number of p ilicomen
guarding the doors; found the upper stories ftlle i with
firemen; met Mr. Baker, and with him went to the front
portion of the second floor, and there Was satisfied that
stealing had been going nn ; also saw a numbor of boxes
which bad been knocked out. of their places by streams of
water; firemen and policemen were on that floor;
I aaw nothing wrong going on; went repeate-lly
through the whole building and Uft about 13 o'clouk ; prior
to leaving entirely I wont and examinod the rearalley, but
did not. hnd any goods there; witness' idea was th tttlie
pilfering was mainly done at the first rush after the alarm ;
be knew that gooda were not tnken other than those whioh
oould have been carried about the person of the thieres;
uo bulky piecea were taken.
The Investigation was then adjourned until 12
o'clock to-morrow, at which time Mavor Fox re
quests that all knowing of the stealing will be
present.

Some of this new scenery is remarkably good, anil

Thb Washington Monumbnt. The granite pedes
tal for the Washington monument was hauled to the
front ol Independence Hall yesterday afternoon.
The largest piece weighs about ten tons,and.wtth the
marble statue on the top, will stand 21 feet high.
The pedeBtal is of the finest Richmond granite, like
the costly and beautiful Washington monument in
that city. The pieces which arrived from Richmond,
Va., were landed at the Pennsylvania Central Kali
road wharf, and hauled from thence to the State
House, i no pedestal is from tne quarries at Rich
mond, Va., owned by the Richmond Granite Com
pany, composed or several enterprising Philadel
phia gentlemen, who are working the quarries on a
large scale, and we understand that the comptnv
have thus far been quite successful. The cheapness
of labor in that locality, with the fine quality or their
stone, gives them great advantages. ' The markets at
Norfolk, Washington, and Bui 1 1 more are naturally
very convenient ror these quarries, and this market
is being supplied with large quantities also. Thia
company have made extensive improvements on
their large and valuable wharf, at the root of South
street, Schuylkill, and it gives evidence of increasing
business in that direction along the river front. The
company have recently closed a contract with the
Illinois and St. Louis Bridge Company, for the supply
or an tne cranue tnac win ne neeoea for that im
portant work. We are pleased to see this additional
evidence of tue enterprise of our lellow-cltlzens.
