A DARING ROBBERY ON THE EAST SIDE IN
OPEN DAYLIGHT,

For some time past the east side OF the city has
been infested by set OF robbers and thieves Of
the most desperate character. They have not only
taken advantage OF the darkness OF the night to
shield them in their infamous plunderings, but
they have not hesltated to commit their daring
deeds in the light OF day.
Yesterday afternoon about three O'Clock, two Of
TINS band took advantage OF the absence OF n.
Junker, who keeps grocery store at the corner Of
Delaney and Orchard streets, to overpower and
beat the young man lett in the store and rob the
TIL OF some SIS, more or less. The way III which
these wretches accomplished their work was 10
send one OF them into the store, under the pre-
lence OF purchasing bushel OF coal. He
said he had no basket, out would deposit
seventy.1ve cents as security for the return
of the naske AS the coal was outside the door
the young man, Jonn Streck, went out TO get II,
but observing something suspicious IN the appear
ance o the man who renamed on the OUTSIDE, he
hind inc counter. Finding that he was discov-
cred he gave signal TO his confederate, and the
two rufians attacked the man Streck, knocking
him down and leaving him IN position in which
he was unable to give the alarm. They made good
their escape. and John Streck says hewould be un-
able 10 identity them. MIR. junKer states that
this has occurred once or twice before, and on
several occasions when his wife was IN the store
sne has been approached IN the same way, but she
was too smart lor them. THIS happened In the
broad day IN a thickly populated district, ana
where there are hundreds OF people constantly
