DARINH BURGLARY.
Over ~, 900 Worth Of Jewelry stolen at
Grafton.

Grafton.
spscir, TilcqruD, 10 the Register.
GRAFTON, w. VA, January ia
most daring burglary took place in our
town this morning about 3 o'clock. The
iewelry store of J. w. Hull & Co, located
IA the new brick buildingor George Brink
man, on Main street, at the intersection
Of Latrobc street, and at the most tre-
4ueuted point in town, was broken into by
burglars, and the sale blown open and
q number OF gold and silver watches, dia-
mond pins, etc, to the value Of about s.
900 was taken.
2Nr. Hull has been in the jewelry busi
ucss ia Grafton for the pas. three or four
years, and Just before the holidays removed
his stock gf goods to the new Brinkmsn
building, mud had purchased a large line Of
goods for the holiday trade. Until the
past night or two, their watch repairer,
MI Upton, had slept in the store but
omitted to do SO last night, although he
did not leave the store until after twelve
o'clock. The manner Of the operations Of
the burglars shows them to be experts
The door CT the room was found to have
been prieti open with chisel and large
monkey wrench had been used to twist of.
knob OF the safe. This accomplished, pow
der was inserted, and the outer door blown
off Two large clocks were placed
in front of the safe and the inner
portion OF the door taken ont and carefully
laid on the clocks. The trays containing
the iewelry were carried ont into AIcin
street md emptied OF their contents, and
the trays thrown into the street.
The night WAS exceedingly rainy and
stormy, and could not have been better
suited to the burglars TO carry out their
uetlrlOus scheme.
Some citizens residing in the vicinity
claim to have heard the report Of the ex-
plosion at about o'clock, but supposed
the noise was cccasiOned by the engines
i'm the ward. No clue whatever has been
obtained OF the robbers.
Three suspicious looking persons were
seen about town last evening, and II Is gen
orally believed that they committed the
deed, but who or what they are no one
seems 10 know.
The planning mill of Morgan & Magill
WAS broken into during the night and the
rhisels and wrenches with which the work
Was done was obtained from there.
Prior to engaging in the Jewelry busi'
mess Nh Hull was in the hardware busl-
acss N This city, ard his store was burg
Iarled three times within eight or ten
wears this making the fourth time he has
suffered less IN this way.
Mr.. c. l. Durbin is the other member
IT the firm, having recently became a
member, and much sympathy Is expressed
for both Mr.. Hull and Mr.. Durbin in the
/ heavy less they sustain.
