Mr.. EDITOR have seen the article yo1 quote
from the Commercial concerning suspicious noises
and appearances about one or two stores down
town. 1t happened last Sunday night and fOiled
| the police entirely had concluded the CONNER.
ciaFs article was hoax, but / met the watch on
the Pearl st. beat last evening, and asked him if
store was entered on his beat last Sunday night
He gave me the following facts He was standing
| near the store and the door shake violent
| ". He stepped up behind the sign, one OF
| those wedge shaped ones which project on
the steps, and mOtioned the private watch
man behind him a little, expecting to strike
and secure the burg ar as he came out No one
came out. After a little interval the door shook
again. This was repeated several times, until he
b. OK oned to two men across the way, and sent
man to Brooklyn for the owner and his clerks,
while he himself kept watch. The door was
shaken several times very hard while the messen-
ger was gone. When they arrived and were Just
going to take hold of it, it shook again, on which
they stopped and cried out-who's there? No an
swer, and silence. The door was left locked and
guarded behind them, and after searching the
first floor thoroughly, man was left there
with light and they proceeded to search above
and below The watch told me he searched every
nook and cat hoe-he described particularly how
everything, inside and out, locked and secured
and said he should have been less surprised il he
had found the least place in which man could hide
any possibility Of his getting out of the building.
They were all coniounded at the result of their
pains, and certain that nobody came out These
are facts. Yours, &c.
