for the return of the whole, minus a
consideration" for the thieves aud q
liberal slice for the contending detec-
tlves.
This complication is certainly re-
markable, especially as showing the ut
ter rottenness Of the detective systems
of this country. A thief, OF gang gof
thieves, boldly making "big strike"
and escaping with the booty, may be
morally certain of keeping clear of pris-
ons, and by means of arrangements
with these virtuous detectives, get q
good commission for the exploit by re-
turning the balance. So it was with
the Concord bank robbery about two
thirds Of the stolen money was regained,
while the other third was kept by the
thief, who is now living upon it in fine
style, well known but unmolested. This
state of affairs is demoralizing' in the
extreme. 1t offers premium to crime,
adds immensely to the insecurity of val
uables, and supports scores of detectives
who are really little better than the
thieves themselves.-Sprinqfel3 Repsbs-

THE GREAT BOND RoBBERY-A SIH-
euLAR CoHPLICATIoN.-Furt details
which have come to light concerning
the recent robbery of $l,500,000 in
bonds from the Office of Rufus l.. Lord,
the New York banker, show remark
able chain of circumstances. 1t has
been ascertaiued that the robbery was
not committed at night but in broad
daylight. The principal, who calls him
self Horace Brown, had ascertsined Mr..
Lords habits and the condition of
affairs in his Office by calling on him os-
tensibly to lease room in the building.
He had six aecomplices with various
daties assigned to them, and on the ap-
pointed day Brown made another call,
Mr.. Lord being seated with his back
toward the safe, which was open. He
engaged in conversation with Mr.. Lord
aud kept his attention while two of the
accomplices entered unobserved and
walked out, also unnoticed, with the
two tin boxes containing the bonds.
Mr. Lord being 81 years old and little
deaf the feat was less incredible than
might seem at first thought. Soper-
fectly was the plot carried out that the
loss was not discovered till the follow
ing day.
BY previous arrangement the cap
tured bondsiwere divided equally among
the seven, who all succeeded In escaping.
The New York police detectives were
put Oh the alert by the offer Of the i'm
mense reward of s250OO0 and the de-
tectives in the United States marshals
Office were also employed, being really
rivals and by no means friends of the
Of the former force. Investigations
were set afoot which gave the police
detectives information Of the identity of
the robbers and communication with
them. Meanwhile the marshal's men
had also followed up their clues, and
spoiled their rivals ne gotiatons for the
return of most Of the bonds by arrest
ing Brown, the principal, on train II
miles from Boston and quietly locking
him up at Newburyport. In his trunk
they found 3215 900 of the stolen bonds.
Mr.. Lord is now placed in the singular
dilemma Of choosing whether be will
take this small portion of the amount
Rutland weekly herald. [volume] (Rutland, Vt.) 1859-1877, 1866-04-05

is, whether the Legislature in joint
meeting had the power to make rule
which had the force of u law. Senators
have TO be appointed by the Legislatures
of the States, When the two Houses of
a Legislature meet in Joint session for
an election, they unquestionably are
the Legislature for that purpose, But
AS they could do no act of legislation
while in joint session, lis denied that
they, by rule, could reverse the common
law OF parliamentary proceedings and
elect by plurality instead of majority.
That is the case as it stands upon the
facts.
