EXT
ENSIvE ROBBERY OF BANK NOTES.
Qn
Saturday, information was forwarded to the various metro.
politan and city police stations that a man named Jenkins,
recently arrived from California, had been robbed of 6501., in
101. notes, and a draft on Rothschild's banking.house for
4a01., by some sharpers.
THE LATE EXTENSIVE ROBBERY IN THE STRAND,
clue to the parties concerned in the robbery of watches
and jewellery at Mr. Jones's has yet been. discnvered, and
the police appear to have been completely foiled in r.tll their
attempts to discover the perpetrators. gr. Jena himself is
under the impression that :-. male of the parties may yet be
induced to come forward by the offer of his large reward, and
is strengthened in this by the fact that it was nearly five
weeks after the robbery of plate end jewellery at Messrs.
Savory's, in Cornell', when a communication was made to
them to the effect that the whole of the .property would be
restored upon the payment of a certain stipulated sum.
ANOTHER EXTENSIVE BURGLARY.---00 Saturday
morning, about four o'clock, Smith, ill
C, was taking his customary exam;ng round, be d.isovered
as Police-constable
that the door of the White Bear Tavern, in .Berwick-street:
Oxford-street, was not in that state of security that he had
left it on his previoes visit. He at once aroused the inmates
and on Mr. Scaii-e, the landlord, tinaitting him, it was found
that burglars had been on the remises, and had broken open
a cupboard in the bar-parlour, and carried off 551. in gold,
silver, and country notes. The thieves had ciao attempted
with much violence, but fortunately without success, to
force open an iron safe, 'a which was lodge I between 8001.
and 9001. From no externel marks of a forcible entry being
visible, it is presumed that a boy had concealed himself on
the premises late the previous night, who at the fitting hour
had admitted his more expert accomplices.

beries have recently taken place of valuable packages of
goods from the goods shed of the Midlan d
