The Great Darlington Bank
Robbery.

Still later developments regarding the
recent daring attempt to lob the Great
harrington bank seem to confirm the
impression that the would-be robbers were
a desperate set, aud that nothing short Of
the chronometcr lock could have bailled
them. 1t appears that the cracksmen
hired their horses in Hudson, two days
before the robbery, and as they did not
return with the teams the owners institu.
ted a search for their missing property.
They were traced to Great harrington,
aud on the morning after the gagging Of
the bank cashier further tracks of the
iugitives were discovered, leaving no
doubt that the men who hired the Hud-
son horses and the bank robbers were the
same persons. The officers kept up the
search, and started for Catskill station,
where they arrived just in time TO find
that four persons had been rowed across
the Hudson river. a fishboat and fisher
man were pressed into service and the
party crossed the river in pursuit. Ar
irving on the other side the pursuers went
only a short distance when they overlook
the carriage containing the men. The
officers drove w and demanded a surren.
der. The thieves replied by firing five
shots-one entering the dasher of the
carriage, one entering the side of the
horse, the other three shots being at ran
dom, One OF the officers returned the
shots with his pistol, and his shot took
effect in the arm of a thief, whereupon
they drove on rapidly about a mile, and,
leaving their carriage ran into a piece of
woods and escaped. A vigorous search
failed to reveal their whereabouts. and it
was apparent that they did not intend to
be captured alive.
