This light directly over the safe had been unscrewed and the cur tains drawn to prevent suspicion. But three ten-cent pieces were left in the wreck age. A vest which had apparently been left hanging in the office and which belonged to a former manager had been used as a covering for the safe when bown. It was firmly wedg- ed in the combination lock from the result of the blowing. Besides money an account book of the company had been taken and it is believed that the burglars did not stop to sort money or checks but put everything within sight into a bag, making their escape down the railroad.
 There was about $100 in the safe at the time. A full description of the men was furnished by the watchruan, though after coming into the office unmasked Pickett ayers they put handkerchiefs over their faces.
 Great difficulty was experienced by Lieutenant Suckley in notifying the management of the concern as the new manager, H. G. Freeman, who re- placed Frank A. Smiley, of 40 State street could not be found at his 1odg- ings in the Stratfeld last night, and ii was believed he had recently moved to others quarters. A rigid examina-' ton of the night watchman, however, was conducted at headquarters in the hopes of ascertafning definitely the character and social condition of those engaged in the work.
 At the Baird Machine Tool Com pany, the money and books are kept in a vault adjoining the officer where a night watchman is employed. Ap- parently watching him from the out side the men worked at the bars of 8 small window giving light to the vault from the outside. They forced the window, and working just behind the massive steel door which separated them from the watchman they rifled the vault of about $2OO and fled No clues were left.
