Messrs. McGregor and Slocum. 1t seems thaths
design was to rob the vaults Of Beebe & 30, banker
who occupy the basement cI No. 10. the burglaI
got over the walls Of the new building adjoining
bored through the sCutle unfsstened Il. descended
into the entry which leads to the Phonix Bank, and
began to bore through the floor % the entry duec.I
over one of the desks IN Boebe's office. NcGes
whose usual place on the steps Of the mon Bani
on the other side OF the street, saw glimmera
light through the window over The hall door, crosse
over and nled the door when ~ light was suddeir

purposes called on Beebes private wat hau
Cwho was reading a paper IN the front pa
of the room,) and the two went out the baes
door up a winding stairway into the entry. McGes
struck match and caught glimpse OF MAJ

would have disturbed them before they could have
got into the safe. The fellow who escaped probaof
went down on Broad.st., where scu,,le vas folri
