BURGLARS AT GREENEs FARMS.

Robbed the Beach Side Inn of That
 Place of More Than s2,OOo-The Meth
 ods of the Gang-Guests Driven Up
 Stairs at the Point of Revolver
 Thought to be an Organized Gang.
 Greens Farms, Aug. 1.-The Beach, side Inn at this place was early this morning entered by six masked burg lars who, after binding the watchman and threatening the lives of the guests who dared to interfere, blew open the safe, securing 3,100 in cash.
 The burglars were heard by the night watchman, who was set upon and knocked down by two of the gang when he went to investigate. They tied his hands and feet and a third administered chloroform until Harti- gan became unconscious, Then they carried him back to the hotel, where they extracted the keys from his pock- ct
 Before beginning operations on the safe they cut the telephone wires to prevent the spread of the alarm and posted guards outside and also at the staircase leading to the rooms upstairs. They then drilled two holes in the safe door and inserting a powerful explo- sive believed to have been nitro glycerine, blew off the door.
 The explosion was heard by several guests, who started down stairs to learn the cause of the noise, but before they reached the bottom of the stair case they were driven back at the point of a revolver by g robber on guard who told them to remain quiet upstairs or he would shoot them. The burglars secured $1,S00 in cash, $500 in checks and quantity of jewelry. The hotel is owned by J. H. Phipps. One hundred and two guests were asleep in the hotel at the time of the burglary.
 It is believed that the gang is the same as that which robbed the Rotor Point hotel in the same manner.

TORRINGTON BURGLARS
 LARGE

Torrington, Aug. 1.-The police have as yet been unable to obtain a clue to the burglar who robbed John Lawton of sS0S in cash early Sunday morning.
 The authorities of Litchfieid have been cooperating with the local police, but though the robber is believed to have passed through that place they can ob- tain no clue The theory that .n or ganized gang of crooks is working the state is growing in the minds of the Iitchfeld county authorities. They argue that the Torrfngton burglary of Sunday morning, the Roton Point robbery of 8 few days before, and many minor robberies in western Copnecti- cut were only the early work of the gang. which eliminated its operations Iarly this morning st Greens Farms in the daring and successful raid upon the Beach Side Inn. The police claim to have substantial reason for advanc- ing this theory, though they will Lot make them public, fearing to frustrate their plans for detecting the criminals.
