Registered Letters Stolen.

CHICAGO, January 23.-Four days ago the
post.ollice authorities neie were surprise q
by finding that twenty-0ne valuable pack
ages had been stolen from a regislered.lct-
ter pouch from Rochester, n. Y. As five
Of the envelopes bore the Rochester post
office stamp. Telegram was sent TO that
place to ascertain the contents. II was
fouEd that one envelope contained SO,
three others So each, and 6fth ruby
breastpin. From this Special.Agent Hen
shaw deduces that the total loss, which was
first rumored TO be Sl50,000 does not eX-
coed 5000. The bag came over the Michi'
can Southern railroad, but whether the rob-
berry took place on the train, at the deto',
or in the Chicago post-Office, is not known
The matter was kept a close secret By the
authorities in the hope OF detecting the
robbers.
