broke into the post-office at this place
early this morning and made a big haul.
Thomas Murphy, who keeps a saloon
near the post-ofiice. at about 2 A. NJ.
saw three strange men on the roof of
the post-office building. For some un-
explained reason Murphy did not give
the alarm. The burglars effected an en-
trance to the post-office through the sky
light of the building. They tore open
letters and forced the safe, from which
they obtained $500 In cash and 81 ZOO in
stamps.
Postmaster James Cox did not hear OF
the robbery until long after the thieves
had escaped from the village on a hand
car belonging to the Long Island Rail-
road. They abandoned the hand-car at
Glen Head, where they are supposed to
have boarded the first train for New
York.
Postmaster Cox at once reported the
robbery to the New York postal authori.

months ago. That gang was arrested In
