A POLICE STATION ROBBED.

One OF the boldest samples OF thievery on record
has Just been brought to notice in Hoboken. Petty
burglars generally manage to Ieepat a respectable
distance from the police, but in this the thief
worked his way into the police station, and that,
too, at different times, and did hts work
successfully. About one O'Clock yesterday
morning Mr.. Con Donavan. the recent
candidate for Sheriff OF HUDSON county
and brother to the Hoboken Chief or Police, found
young Italian, named Francis Guralia, hidden
in closet In his store, waich by the Way, adoinS
the ponce station. When asked his business ne
exhibited a number OF currency bills which he
had taken out OF Mr.. Donavan's TILL say ing that no
was only waiting to get chance OF sacsiug tue
house. He had been secreted there ior seven
hours. He was then asked II he knew anything
about the abstraction or four revolvers from the
police station, and he acknowledged that he
himself was the culpriL These revoyers had been
stolen at different periods, and no clew
TO the thief could be found. About q week
ago, Mr.. Donavan's store was robbed at night OF y
revolver, valued at $35, also a silver chain and
some money. Young Guraiia, who Is only twelve
years OF age, con essed that he had sold all the
voivers to one Fritz Lange In Washington street,
and spent the money. Lame was speedily ar
rested, and the articles were found IN his shop.
He was brought before Recorder Bohnstedt and
held to bail In $1,000 for receiving stolen goods.
Guralia was committed for trial. He says ha
doesn't care II he be sent 10 prison or reform
school until he Is Il years oil age. He had obtained
access to the station house through rear gate.

necessity, as 1t would an0rd the much needed
space required by the National Guard Of New

employment during its prosecution.
