greatly exercised upon all these enterprises.
The Times goes in for the underground railroad

Has THERE BEEN HIGHWAY ROBBERY By
THE PorIcE?--We call attention to the letter Of
the President of the Greenwich Savings Bank,
Mr.. b. #. whcelwright, published in another
part Of the HERALD, with regard to the bold and
ingenious robbery from porter Of that bank.
The letter of the president Ia in explanation Of
a report of this robbery published in our issue
of yesterday. II appears from this respectable
authority that Thomas Quin, the porter of the
bank referred to, was seized and the cash box
of the bank taken from him in Carmnc street,
near varick, by two men who were together
and dressed as policemen. The box was taken
by one Of them and the porter was taken by
the other to the station house. Quin was
treated roughly, cursed and locked up; and,
though he appealed to the policeman who took
him and TO the officer in charge ut the police
station, TO take him 10 the Greenwich Savings
Bank, or to refer there for the truth Of what he
stated, these guardians Of the public refused to
do so. But they searched him and locked him
up at the station, and thus not only committed
an outrage upon an innocent man, but pre-
vented the capture of the robber. The letter
of Mr. whcelwright details oil the circum-
stances, and we need not re-state them. This
extraordinary robbery has very suspicious
look as TO the policemen, and this Is the mldest
term in which we can express IT. DO not the
policemen know each otherf and particularly
those of the same precinct Could police
man be 80 imposed upon by man dressed In
the uniform The two policemen were
together when QuIn came mp and when one
took the cash box and the other himself We're
they confcdcratess We confess II looks very
suspicious. The conduct all through Of The
policeman who took Quin prisoner strengthens
the suspicion. At least both his conduct and
that Of the officer in charge Of the police
station were outrageous in their treatment Of
Qun, and in not taking the trouble to verify his
statement We have heretofore had reason "
complain Of the inefscicncy of the polic<
force in the city. Our citizens are robbed n

have had but one object In view throughout our
whole career, and that was to serve the public.
With regard to the widening of Ann street, 1t
hes been ainsinuated that the, HsnALD had some
interest in it. We are not aware Of any. 1t
has bsen said that Aston had an interest in
it. We know nothing about it 1t has been
said also that the railroads had an interest IN
it. We are not aware of IT. We know that
the ordinance has been passed, and that is all;
nor do we care in what multifarious interests
It has been done.
Fit be for the benefit Of the city to open
Ann street. Nassau street, Fulton street and
Broadway; to construct an underground rail-
rod or railroad over the sidewalks, or tun-
nels or bridges, we are qsite willing to
acquiesce in all these schemes We have NO
pet project to advance. We are guided solely
by the public good, and shall therefore devote
all our energies to that end in the Improvement
of the metropolis.

the street cars with impunity; but now the
police force itself Is strongly suspected Of the
same crimes. The Police Commissioners ask
for more power over the city and the citizens.
II they use that which they have SO badly, if
highway robberies be committed by their own
force, and if policemen treat respectable citi-
zens as Quin was treated, we think they have
too much power already. On the whole, this
is the most disgraceful affair that has occurred
among us for long time; and taken in connec-
ton with the other crimes daily occurring from
the inefaciency of the police, 1t calls for some
immediate action by our citizens to remedy the
evil
