Ii aprea.s that after tho English burglars, who
were IN JAIL II Indlan1pdl!a learned Of the alEclt
Of AnertWs, they concluded the thing was Ill out,
and TO taey proceeded 10 make clean lrtast Ct
the whole matter. They sent note to this
effect to the Chief of Police al Cincinnati,
Mr.. Ruflln, who at once vtaIteh them
and recelyet their confession They stated that
they broke orcn the storc Of Smith / Co., stole
the goods theFcfronn, ana afterwards disposed Of
them to O man In Cincinnati for the sum Of 500
cash, and t300 additional, TO be paid IN thirty
days; TINT the man whom they had sold 10 vas
