THE BENNINGHOFF ROBBERY.
A Daring Set of Robbers-4210,000 Car
sled OR+Partlealars of the Robbery.
From the Pittsburg Commercial
Our Pioneer correspondent telegraphed
the fact on Thursday evening thatthe dwel
ling of John Benninghoff, on BenninghOff
run, was entered by robbers that evening,
and robbed of $210,000. Mr. Benninghoff's
house stands near the road, not frequented
much of late, either by travel or teams, and
the nearest neighbor is a quarter of a mile
distant. Mr. Benninghoff is a Pennsyl
vania German, a plain, hard-working
farmer, and about sixty years of age. Ile
has a large family of grown up children,
many of them staying at home. The old
gentleman, all of a sudden, had riches thrust
upon him by the discovery of oil on his
sterile acres, and is one of our petroleum
millionaries. We believe the first well was
struck on his farm on Pioneer Hun, in the ,
fall of 1563; the production of his whole
farm for the last six months was six hun
dred barrels a day, and ten new wells are
now going down on it. Mr. lt.'s income for
December last, was reported at $lO,OOO, but
hissuclden and dazzling fortune never made '
a fool of him, and they say he cares nothing
for appearances, and wants to live as
frugally and work as dilligently as when be
used to eat his bread in the sweat of his
brow. But he hod taken the notion in his
heed to be his own banker, and to deposit
his bonds and greenbacks in his own safe
and house. The particulars of the robbery
are thus related by the Titusville Herald
of Saturday .
Shortly after seven o'clock the fatuity,
consisting of Mr. John Berminghotr, his
wife, niece and two hired men, were sitting
In the kitchen, when the door was opened
and four men walked in. Three of these
men were of medium sizes and the fourth
' was tall and heavy, and all of them were
masked with handkerchiefs, cloths or com
forters. On entering the room the men
drew pistols and presenting them at the
• heads or breasts of the family, threatened
them with immediate death if they should
make the least noise. Su completely were
the family taken by surprise that lint little
resistance was offered except by Mr. Ben
, ningholl, who cried out lustily on their first
appearance. The first cry that he raised had
i scarcely left his lips when he was attacked
by one or two of the others. Mr. thinning
boll is now in his sixty-seventh year, but
notwithstanding his advanced age, he is
still possessed of considerable strength. nod
he exerted it to the 111111,,5t. I tic Strength
was, however, entirely inadequate to cope
with that if LWO or three widdle aged 'non,
and he WOO SO,II thrown 10 the 11,01% The
ruffians then struck him to the face and
stamped on various parts of his h o tly, ,11141
then hair dragged, half carried him to an
adjoining bed room. All this time Mr. B.
was by nn mriuts idle, but was putting
forth his best endeavors to ',cape, anti to
attract attention from the outside. After
they got MI% B. somewhat under their con•
trol, they tied his arms onci legs and threw
him on the bed end wrapped thy bed clothes
tightly about him. They then rifled his
pockets and bird: from ”110 of them hi,
pocket book, containing a small amount of
money and a key to one of the sites. After
seeing that the cords which bound his limbs
were (list and covering him more closely
with the clothes, they left him in a power
less condition.
While Mr. lienninghoff was struggling
with two of toe ruffians, the other two
had intimidated the two ldred men, and
they were soon tied in the chairs in which
they sat lit the time when the robbers lllnt
made their appearance. These nem of
fered but very little or no resistance, and
In a very brief space of time they found
themselves in it helpless colldilh,ll. Inlr
ing the fracas, Mrs. Itunningholl managed
to secure a revolver, which she handed to
one of tho hired mn, Lilt he, through fear
or sonie other emotien of a like character,
did not use it, and immediately afterward
one of the roughs got possession of it. Mrs.
Lionninghoff was seized, dragged into an
adjoining room, and bound. Mr. lienning
hotrs niece was taken into a 1 . 00111 leer the
kitchen and fastened to a lounge.
After every person in the house tills se
curely fitstened, and an attempt had been
made to open a combination-lock sale, two
of the party went up stairs to the room in
which an old-fashioned safe was kept, with
out asking any questions, while the other
two stayed below and kept guard over the
fondly. The key of the safe on the second
floor had been taken from Mr. Bylining
hoff's pocket book, and the villains suc
ceeded in opening the safe without difficulty.
One drawer in the smut was overlooked, lint
all the rest were thoroughly ransacked,
'['he safe contained nearly F;i'ditT.,ooo, and the
villains succeeded in taking t.;2111,000. llf
the .5210,000, there Were ;$211,0110 llnVvrll
- bonds, and the rest in greenbacks and
national currency. The drawer that was
overlooked contained a quantity gold
and silver coin, amounting in all to a CI on•
partitively small sum. In the haste of the
scorch after plunder, a package containing
81,010 was laid among a quantity of papers
near the safe and left, and in another part
of the house a second package, containing
nearly $6,000 was dropped.
After ransacking the safe, the whole party
returned to the kitchen, and after ascertain
ing from a member of the family that Mr.
Joseph Benninghoff had gone to church,
and that no other person would be likely to
visit the house during the night, the vil
lains proceeded to make themselves com
fortable. During their stay, which lasted
about an hour, they appeared to be await
ing the return of Al r.llenningboff, and they
consumial a quantity of bread and milk.
the villains concluded to leave,
and making a slip-noose, they put it round
the neck of one of the hired men and led
him to the barn and forced hill, In harness
a horse to a cutter. The man Wlll.l then led
back to the house and retied. Two other
horses were taken from the hurt and the
whole party started MI at a brisk pace. As
soon as the last man lett the house, Mr.
Benninghoff's niece managed to loosen the
cords with which her arms were bound.
The root of the (Lundy were then released,
and the men started out and alarmed the
neighbors, after which telegrams were sent
ill all directions to the authorities of the
different places, apprising, them of the rob
bery.
After leaving the house, the live men with
the horses and cutter proceeded up Ben
ningholf Hun about one-half of a mile,
when the cutter was smashed and the horses
were turned loose, where they were found
yesterday morning. From where the cut
ter and horses wore abandoned, no farther
traces of the party could be found.
The safe that was not opened, contained a
much larger amount than that cart led otr.
Yesterday morning a reward of $lO,OOO
was offered for the arrest of the robbers and
return of the money, and later in the day it
was increased to $lOl,OOO. About two o'clock,
a dispatch was received by Mr. Henning
hoff, from (lit City, stating that three men
had been arrested on suspicion of being im
plicated in the robbery. 01r. li. and Deputy
Sheriff I left Petroleum Center for
City, on the train that leaves the Milner
place at 3.20 I'. M., for the purpose of see
ing if the men who were arrested could be
identified.
cieorge Francis Train 'Arrested on Nuts
plelon of Beluga Fenian.
LONDON, .Jan. 2.—When the Cunard
steamship Scotia, front New York for
Liverpool, entered the port of Queenstown,
late last evening, for the usual transfer or
the London and Irish passengers and
mails, a strong police force quietly went
aboard and arrested Messrs, Geo. Francis
Train, Grinnell and Gee, three of the pas
sengers who sailed from New York. It is
understood that these gentlemen were
taken into custody on the charge of being
active members of the American wing of
the Fenian organization.
These proceedings, naturally enough,
caused considerable excitement both here
and elsewhere throughout the kingdom, tuni
especially amongst American residents.
Com:, Jan.l9.—A strict search of the per
son and baggage of George Francis Train
disclosed no proofof his complicity with the
Fenian movements, or justifying his arrest
by the British police on suspicion of being
concerned in the Fenian plotting, Train
asserts that he came over to Europe as spe
cial correspondent in Ireland of the New
York " World." He has formerly protest
ed through the IlnitedStates Consul against
his detention, and declares he was arrested
upon no otherground or suspicion, than the
finding an of Irish paper in his trunk.
A Man Bitten by a Mad Bog Two Years
Ago Dies of Hydrophobia.
We yesterday learned the particulars of
one of those remarkable and dreadful visi
tations of Provide:A.o which, by its horror
and distress, sometimes startles a whole
community. Wu have often been called
upon to chronicle the demise of friends and
strangers—to toll of death in the many dis
guises which that subtle and in vistlile
agent assumes; lint have never yet had the
necessity imposed upon us of relating the
progress of a poison which, by slow ad
vances, spreads through the system, par
alyzing the senses, dethroning the intellect,
and giving to the patient all the horrors of
a wild, ungovernable delirium, and finally
ending in death from exhaustion.
Some two weeks since Samuel S. Keyes,
a resident of Mississipi, reached our city in
search of medical advice and that attention
which the inferior facilities of country
practice could not afford. In the month of
August, 1865, be had received a bite on the
hand from a rabid dog; but applying at
once the remedies usually advised in such
cases, he was soon, as he supposed, free
from the effects of the bite. Several times,
however, within tlaelast two years thoplace
bitten would inflame and give excessive
pain for several days and then get well.
Still Mr. Keyes endured no uneasiness, un
til about a month ago he began to feel, as
he described it, a dull, heavy heeling, accom
panied by partial blindness, wild, thrilling
sensations,
and aberrations of mind. This
continued for two weeks, growing each day
worse, and satisfied at last that it was the
approach of the dreadful hydrophobia, he
started for this city, accompanied by his
brother, in search of medical attention. But
each day the fearful disease made more
rapid advances, and yesterday morning he
died in all the horrible agonies of raging,
foaming delirum. His disease defied
human skill. The insidious poison had
corrupted the whole mind and body, inten
sifying his fearful sufferings until death
put an end to his tortures.—New Orleans

A Finn AT SPRINOVILLE.—A barn in
which there were two horses and a quanti

ville, this county, was entirely destroyed
by tire yesterday afternoon about] o'clock.
The barn is said to have been the property
of Rev. Mr. Marple, and was occupied for
stabling purposes by a Mr. Derr. The
residence of Rev. Mr. Marple, which is
close to the barn, had a very narrow es

at least f;,'5,000 worth of store goods, was
burned to the ground, nothing being saved

some insurance on the property, but in
what company or to what amount we have
not learned. A portion of the building, was
used as the l'ost Office, the mail bags, etc.,

Cotter I'itocliiSntNus•—The Court of Com
mon Pleas assembled on Wednesday after
noon in too Orphans' Court Room, to con
tinue the trial of the case or M. B. Landis
vs. George Camber, which had been com
menced at the last term of the Court, but
was not finished for want of time. The
jury which had been sworn in the case were
all present. The case was tried once before
in November, 1666, and a verdict rendered
for plaintiff, but a new trial was granted.
The plaintiff and his sister, Mrs. Lehman,
were entitled under the will of their father,
each to a porliou of the farm on which he
lived at the time of his death ; after his
death some litigation arose in reference to
the will, and during its continuance George
Gam ber farmed the place, dividing the land
lord's share of the crops, by agreement of
the parties, between the plaintiff and his
sister. The plaintiff eventually became dis
satislied, however, with this arrangement,
and brought this suit against the tenant, to
compel him to account to him for $620.00 as
a balance of the proceeds of the crop of 1864,
which had been grown on his portion of the
farm, over and above what he had received
as his share of the entire proceeds of the
farm, under the arrangement which had
been entered into between himself and his
sister. The defendant claimed that there
bad been a settlement with plaintiff for his
interest in the crop.
The jury found for the defendant. Kline,
Reynolds and Livingston for plaintiff. T.
E. Franklin, Dickey and Swarr for defend
ant.

Corm FEET.—CoId feet are a general at
diction, and cures for them are in demand.
A contemporary says that it is assured by
one who has given the experiment a trial,
that cold feet and especially those superla
tively rigid feet that are kept billed by
perspiration, may be relieved by a simple
expedient. This is to wear cotton sucks
next to the skin and woolen socks outside of
them. It states that "in the instance of our
informant, the result was successful in
keeping his feet warm and dry. The singu
lar consequence also ensued, that at night
he would Lind the cotton socks (next his
skin) quite dry, while the outside woolen
stockings would be very damp."

The past year has been one unusual pros
perity to the Company. Therehan been au in
creased amount of Insurance during the year
of turee honored and thirty-eight thousand,
five hundred and seventy-six dollars and Oa tr
ty-two ceiats 0330,570 32), and an increased
amount of premium notes of eighteen thous•
and, eight hundred and sixty-one dollars and
four cents (018,5 hi ill. It affords the Board
much gratification to again report that the
losses to the Company during the year, hove
been comparatively - small, the amount of loss
being fourteen hundred and ninety dollars
and ninety-two cents. This with other debt
which has accrued trom the payment of losses
for the past two years, makes the whole in
debtedness of the Company at this time, twen•
ty-six hundred and seventy-ono dollars and
sixty-seven cents (.02,071 07). The Board have
not deemed it best for the interest of the Com
pany, to make an assessment for the pay men t
of tins debt, at this time, inasmuch as the in
terest on money borrowed Is more than would
be the expenses upon the collection of an as
sessment. The immunity nom less to the
Company for the past twenty-six months is
very remarkable when contrasted with the
whole amount of property insured, the three
fourths value of whicn Is now over six and a
half millions of dollars. An assessment of one
per cent, on the amount or premium notes de
posited, would be more than sufficient to pay
all loss for this period. Persons desiring to be
rme members of the Company, will not be liable
for the present debt'y the Company; they sill only
be liable for any loss that may occur after the date
of the issuing of their policies. The losses of any
amount during the year are as follows, vlr.
Dr. Carpenter Weidler's loss to house and con -
tentS, on the Bth of February, 1867,0565 37; Sol
omon H. Myers' wash house and contents, on
the Bth of October,lB67, 000 00, and John Christ's
loss of house and contents, on the IStu of De
cember last. 8800 00. For minor losses see the
account of Treasurer above stated. It is grati
fying to know that these losses were all the re
sult of accident.

HOOFLAND'S GERMAN TONIC
Is a combination of all tho ingredients of
the Bitters, with the purest quality of Santa

most pleasant and agreeable remedies ever
offered to the public.
Those preferring a Nlealiclue free from Alcw
hole admixture, will use
HOOFLAND'S GERMAN BITTERN
Those who have no objection to the colubi
nation or the Bitters, as stated, will use
HOOFLAND'S GERMAN TONIC.
They are both equally good, and contain tho
satne medicinal virtues, the choice Between
the two being a mere matter of taste, the Tonic
being the most palatable.
The stomach, irom a variety of causes, such
as Indigestion, Dyspepsia, Nervous Debility,
etc., is very apt to have its functions deranged.
The Liver, symr. thiZlog so closely as
