DABIEG BOED BOBBERY.
Over One Hundred Thousand Dollars in
Bonds and Stocks Stolen.
The Act Committed in Daylight
Escape ot the Perpetrators
We have to record another of those bold,
adroit and successful bond robberies whicu
have marked the last few months in tin
Eastern cities. It is the first of the char
acter which has taken plaoe in Philadel
phia for some time, and it ought to be tie
last.
Tbe’circumstances are as follows, as we
learn them in the first flash of the discovery
of the robbery:
About 12i/o'clock to-day two persons,
dressed in a gentlemanly manner, entered
the office of Mr. C. P. Bayard, stockbroker,
No., 209 Chestnut street.
The office'at the (ime wasin charge of
Mr. J. Bayard, a venerable gentleman,
hither, we believe, of Mr. C. P. Bayard. No
one else was in the place. The fire-proof
door was open, and the safe within it was
also open.
On the entrance of the two strangers, they
asked for Mr. C. P. Bayard, and made
quite a number of inquiries as to what kind
of stocks he dealt in. Mr. Bayard senior
answered their; questions corteously, and
apparently to their satisfaction.
While thus engaged, standing up talking
to strangers Nos. 1 and 2, stranger No. 3
made; his and inquired of Mr.
Bayard, where he [could get a hill of ex
change.
Mr. Bayard informed stranger No. 3 that
he conld get one at Browns & Bowen’s, next
door above. Stranger No. 3 then disap
peared, and shortly afterwards strangers
Nos. I and 2 also left the premises in the
quietest and most gentlemany manner.
More than an hour elapsed before the rob
bery was discovered, and an attempt was
made to discover the amount of the loss.
The following Government coupon bonds
are known to have been taken:

Ac., belonging to a numDer of persons.
The bonds, &c., were all in a tin box, and

off the box and all its contents.

more distinct to the e»r. This Is so apparent that the'

are relieved from the dread of having, their carpets cui
or torn, as frequently happens from those now in ose
often caused by a rust, which adheres with glue-lik<
tenacity. No such annoyance can possibly proceec
jrom the Glass Castor wheels, as we all know tha'
glass is non corrosive. There are no rough or unfli.
ml, »-d edges to the Glass Wheels, such as we often flue
m those of Iron, and the latter, though smoothly fin
will soon rust, from the dampness of theatmos

we have a man In our place whom the doctors pro
