HoLD-UP IN CITY HALL PARK.
A Peddier Robbed or His watch Just Outside
the Police station.

the Police station.
Sergeant Murphy sat doing behind the desk
in the little police station in the basement of
City Hall last night II was 1O:4O o'clock. Tho
front doors OF the station were wide open and
the walk leading from them to Park row was
bright with the glare OF the electric lights. Sud.
denly a loud yell was heard outside. Sergeant
Murphy awoke.
Help! Murder!I Polizei!!, shouted a voice.
Murphy bounded over the desk and made for
the park. On the broad walk, just outside tho
door. he saw a man with q bushy black beard,
who had q pack on his back Ard " valise in his
right hand, struggling with two assailants. As
Murphy hove in sight the latter broke away
and started to run. Murphy grabbed the taller
one. The other slipped by him and made
of toward Broadway. When he reached Park
place he ran into the arms OF Policeman
O'Rourke Of the Church street station. When
questioned he could give no satisfactory account
Of himself. SO O"Rourke took him back across
the park.
In the meanwhile Sergeant Murphy hailed his
prisoner to the station. The man with the
bushy beard. who WAS so frightened he could
scarcely speak. said that he had been held up by
the two other men. He said he was Joseph CT
der. a peddlcr of 10 Monroe street. He was
crossing the park on his way home. after a hard
days work, when the two men accosted him.
suddenly the man whom Sergeant Murphy had
caught grabbed him by the beard. and showed
him against the wire fence that guards the lawn.
Cider struggled, but he was handicapped by the
valise and his pack. When he attempted 10 cry
out the rob6er choked him and his companion
put his hand In elders pocket and seized his
silver watch. which was attached to a heavy
guard. and wrenched 1t of the ring. In his other
pocket Cider had $95 in bills. BEFORE the high
wayman could get at it the peddlor screamed,
and Sergeant Murphy appeared on the scene.
The serEeant's prisoner said he was William
Halpen, ls years old. a bicycle builder OF SO
Paterson street, Jersey City Heights. He cried
whom he was being searched, and said he had
nothing to do with the hold,up. While his pedi'

A Rand or Delawares Try to See the President.

WASHINGTON, June 16.-A band Of Delaware
Indians. headed by the famouso old chief Locking
Glass, camped under a spreading shade tree in
front OF the White House q good part Of to-day.
They came early in the morning, logged out In
blankets, moccasins, feathers and other para
phernalia OF nomads. and were painted in bright
red colors. Only one Of the party, q half-breed,
who acted as interpreter, wore citizens clothes,
and they were of the hand.me-down variety. In
the lapel of his coat was q little button Of the
campaign variety, on which was the inscription:
Il am too young to loyen Several pretty girls
anne By on their way to the main entrance Of
the White House and stopped to cape at tho
tribe Of rcd men. The ~prettiest of them. after
reading the inscription. said. as she twirled her
parasol about her hand: "Oh, I don't know"
too, stopped, and, as a White House policeman
said, "fubber.necked" at the Indians. He also
leaned over. saw the button. and with q little
sarcastic sheer said: light"
Indians, followed by the interpreter. lined up
and walked into the White House. At the head
OF the stairway they met Secretary Porter, who
inquired their business. The interpreter told
him that tho Delawares had business with the
President. but Mr.. Porter could not see his way
clear to pass them into tho Presidents room. &c
he asked that they return tomorrow. When
Mr.. Porter's words were conveyed to CHIEF
Looking Glass he turned up his hose and showed
of. and told the interpreter to tell Mr.. Porter
that they must see the President to-day. Mr.
Porter couldn't see things that way, however
and after Chief Looking Glass was Informed o.
finally led the way downstairs. They will re
turn again tomorrow to see the Great Father.

Special Cable Despatch to THE SUN.
LONDON. June 16.-The knowledge Of the
Queens sad affection Is still confined TO court
and professional circles, and efforts arc being
made to prevent q public announcement OF her
blindness until after the jubilee. There will b
no authoritative statement issued before the
end Of the celebrations.
1t was not until the present week that the
fact that her Majesty's eycsight had almost
failed became known in the vicinity of Balmo-
raj, and the report was at first not believed
The assiduous attendance upon the Queen
during her daily drives and excursions was as
cribed to her well.known lameness, the result Of
rheumatism, which has long made II impossible
for her to walk.
Tho editor OF o local journal, who Is inspired
by the castle authorities, on Monday received
private confirmation of the report that her
Majesty was almost sightless. This informa-
ton was coupled with a request that 1t be not
published pending the jubilee festivities.
1t is a pleasure to be able to add upon the
same authority as that for last nights cable
despatch to THE Sun. telling of her Majesty'a
affection. that the Queens general health ia
excellent; better, indeed. than it has been for
two or three years.
The Queen started to-day from Balmoral foH
London. When her Majesty reached Ballater,
the railway station for Balmoral. the school
children were assembled and sang the national
anthem in her honor.
