TIE BALTIMORE BANK ROBBERY. The
robbery of the Third National Bank in Balti-
more yesterday, as announced in the Gazette, is
considered one of the boldcst, most daring and
at the same time most successful bank robberies
that was ever pcrpetrated in this county, and the
affsir caused the greatest excitement in that city
all day yesterday. The officers of the bank state
the loss by the burglary to be as follows
$4,000 in greenbacks and national bank notes,
and the following bonds held as collateral: North
era Central railroad, $1,000; North Carolina
State bonds, $ll, 800; Marietta and Cincinna-
ii railroad, $1,000; United States 5,20,s, ST.
500; Western Maryland railroad, $4,000. The
bank offers a reward of $4,000 for the recovery
of the above or pro rata for the partial recove-
ry. The individual losses of the dcspositors,
having boxes in the vaults cannot be ascertain
ed as many arc out of town The loss will
probably amount to several hundred thousand
dollars, as it is known there were several boxes
containing bonds and other securities which
will amount to $4,000.

THE GENEVA ARB1TRATroN- Geneva
Tribunal met again yesterday and it is stated
that information Of its proceedings will soon be
made public. In the mean time sem-official
dispatch from Washington says that there is
information from Geneva which warrants the
assertion that since the exclusion of the claims
for indirect damages the business before the
Board of Arbitrators has been favorable to this
Government and that several awards for direct
damages have already been agreed upon, the
indications being that on the conclusion of the
adjudication gross sum will be awarded to
the United States, thereby avoiding reference
of the subject to Board of Commissioners.
The dispatch further says that it should not be
expected that the particulars can now be Off
cially given, as the proceedings are conducted
in secret, and as the information furnished the
government is of the same character.
