DISCOVERING A THIEVES DEN.
A Cigar Robbery that Led TO the Finding OF
Room Full OF stolen Goods.

Room Full OF stolen Goods
Some time between Saturday night and
Monday morning the fancy grocery store OF
Turner Bennell. in Jersey City. was robbed Of
over $500 worth OF imported cigars.
Detective Singleton and Officer Bow found
that the bars Of window in the rear OF
the store and opening from the basement
had been skilfully cut so that they could
be slipped out and replaced in such
way that even careful examination would
hardly reveal the fact OF the cutting.
Opening into the area upon which this window
fronted was a doorway leading TO the building
at 52 Montgomery street. adjoining Turner
Bennelps. In tho second story OF this building
tho officers found a rear room that had been
deserted since the latest robbery and TO which
their attention was drawn by peculiar circum-
stance.
There was an ordinary lock on the door OF the
room, but in order TO gain an entrance, 1t was
not alone necessary to turn the key. One had
to stand on a chair or ladder and open the fan
light; then reach through and pull stout corl
which shot back simultaneously four bolts. The
door then swung open.
On searching this room queer assortment Of
stolen property was found. There were forty
five boxes OF cigars that had been taken from
goods. a dozen pairs OF fine lace curtains. pieces
OF carpet and oilcloth dozens OF fine shirts. and
many other articles gathered from nearly every
building in the block.
There were packages upon packages OF fine
groceries from the adjoining store. bundles of
brooms and brushes. boxes Of preserved fruit
and delicacies. baskets OF wine and cases Of
liquor.
