Robber! or the Nation! Bank of Nor-
walk.
‘ The community was startled Friday morn-
ing by the announcement that the Bank of
Norwalk had been entered by burglars dur-
ing the night, the vault blown open and the
Bank robbed of all the valuables contained
therein. We at once issued an extra giving
a brief statement of all the facts we could
gather at that time. We now give». 8 more
detailed accountof the affair.
The explosion was heard by several per-
sons living in the vicinity of the Bank, some
of whom got up and made efforts to ascer-
tain the cause, but without success.
Several persons are said to have seen the
broken glass, but none were suspicious of a
robbery. Early in the morning several tin
boxes were found a short distance below the
Bank, containing documents which led to
the belief that the Bank had been robbed.
Deputy Sheriff Scarles and Wm. Mitchell
then tried the back door, which proved to
be unlocked, walked in and discovered the
state of affairs and immediately notified the
Bank officers. An examination showed that
the entrance must have been effected through
the front door, with false keys. The win-
dows in front and on one side were secured
by stout iron shutters, inside, running up
near the top and over which was a circle of
fancy iron work, open,—-this open space
over each window, was found covered with
black cloth tohide the light. The vault was
found open, and the door of the large safe
was lying outside of the vault on the Bank
floor, the sate:and shelves of the vault had
been robbed of their valuables, the floor was'
strewn with sea-weed used to deaden the
sound of the explosion, and the tools used
by the burglars, and all was confusion.
We were not present to witness the
manner in which the vault and safe were
opened, and are therefore unable to give as
positive and circumstantial an account of
the modus moonlit as some reporters have
done, but the facts seem to be about as fol-
lows: The outside door of the vault was
secured by a Butterworth lock, which was
not broken, but the door seems to have been
forced open by means of steel wedges put
between the door and flame, which bent the
door and framesufllcieutly to allow the pas-
sage of the bolt. The safe was blown open
with powder, (and perhaps Ditto-glycerine
was also used,) some two pounds of which
was probably used, being blown into the
safe through the cracks. The concussion
shook the building to its foundation, and if
a little more powder had been used the walls
would probably have been seriously dam-
aged. . " .
Tim was.
The Bank loses about $32,000. The great-
est loss falls upon special depositors who
had placed their boxes of valuable docu-
ments in the vault for safe keeping. The
amount is not yet accurately ascertained
but is estimated at $150,000, making the
total $180,000. Of this sum the thieves can
use but about $75,000, and the balance will
probably prove unavailable to them. Two
boxes of silver ware were not disturbed.
The capital of the Bank is $800,000 and the
institution was worth, on Thursday, about
$350,000 independent of premiums on $300,-
000 worth of Government bonds deposited
in Washington. The Bank rcsumed' busi-
ness on Friday as usual, the Fairficld Co.
Bank and Soutthorwalk Bank ' rendering
all assistance necessary.
The followi rug is a list of the special de-
positors who lost their boxes: Eben. Hill,
. E. W. Stuart, Estate of Charles Mallory,
F. S. Lyon, E. K. Lockwood, Benjamin Lee,
Edwin Lee, William Trubee, George G.
Bishop. .
The robbery is a general surprise for the
vault was considered burglar proof, and it
was supposed impossible to open it in one
night. The building was built especially for
the Bank, and every efi'ort was made to
make the vault fire and burglar proof. The
vault is lined throughout with boiler iron,-
and was secureflly double doors, the out-
side one being fastened with a Butterworth
lock costing the Bank $250.
The safe was made by Hendricksou, of
Brooklyn, and weighed seven tons; the deor
alone, which was blown about ten feet,
weighed 2,500 lbs. In order to make them-
selves secure the Bank oflicers have chang-
ed safes three times, and this one had been
in use only about 18 months.
The thieves left two copper sledge ham-
mers, :15 or 50 steel wedges of all sizes, oth-
er tools, 3 cans partly filled with powder,
two kid gloves, gold stud, etc.
New York detectives were immediately
sent for, who are working up the case.
One of our citizens was especially fortu-
nate. His special deposit, understood to
amount to nearly his entire fortune, was
found In the rubbish, all safe in his pocket
book.

Failure 01‘ Lockwood a: Co.
The news of the failure of this firm—one
of the wealthiest and most reputable bank-
ing houses in New York—has already
spread throughout the country, and is the
general talk everywhere. The suspension
will probably prove but temporary as the
house has many powerful friends who will
do all in their power to help them to resume.
Wall street is so unsettled that but few firms
know their own standing, and Lockwood &
Co. are yet unable to make any statement of
their affairs. A reporter for the New York
Tribune has conversed with Mr‘ Le Grand
Lockwood, tlic‘ honm-ed head of the firm,
and makes the following statement:
“In the afternoon the Tribune reporter
had interviews with a number Of prominent
gentlemen. With Mr. LcGrand Lockwood
the following conversation took place :—
“Will you furnish the Tnbmw with any
statement of the condition of your house, or
any word of news that might intercest the
public 1” “Well, really,’.’ replied Mr. Lock-
wood, “I have no statement to make; our
affairs are not in a condition to do so; all of
our clerks are busy in clearing up accounts,
and we hope to have particulars at an early
day. It is is a peculiar position that I am
in. Our creditors express very kindly feel-
ings, and the public generally manifest a dc-
sire that we should resume busmess again
as usual. What I shall' do,I cannot now
Exact] say. But, SM“, in. any case I mean to
do rigid!" The whole manner of the speak-
‘er was that of a man who would do justly
“should the heavens fall.” Although deep-
ly sensible of the great blow he had received
at the commercial Waterloo his genial,high-
toned nature evinced the guiding motivesin
his conduct."
We can gain no further particulars at
present, but understand that things are not
as bad as Mr. L. at first supposed.
The N. Y. Sun has an article descriptive
of Mr. Lockwood’s Norwalk residence, the
chlsing sentences of which we copy below:
Mr. Lockwood is is a native of N orwalk,
and, as fortune favored him, he sought to
embellish his nativetown. The homestead
of his grand-parents still stands and is ten-
nanted by Mr. Edwin Lockwood, his uncle,
who is President of both the horse minced
and the Danbury and Norwalk Railroad.
Mr. LeGrand Lockwood is the cheif stock-
holder ofboth of these enterprises. Through
his able oversight the latter has become
enabled to pay ten per cent. dividends, and
the former was built and initiated by him
in spite of violent oppositbu.
TOWN SENTIMENTS .
But one feeling exist in the neighborhood,
regarding Mr. Lockwood’s failure. That Of
deep regret. His charities were wide-spread”
and he pcnsioncd a mass of helpless rela-
tions. He had added more th the prosper-
ity of Norwalk, than any other citizen, and
a general hope is is Ifclt that he may con-
tinue there. Numerous stories are ,told of
the offers for financial aid. His friends are
said to have poured upon him from long
distances, .with expression of sympathy.
One man, as he entered his office, was ob-
srrved to slap him on the back, saying with
tears in his eyes ;
“LcGrand, my boy, Iv’c come two hund-
scd miles to see you. I am worth a couple
of hundred thousand dollars. Half of it is
at your dispoaal,” ,
Whata host of friends that 'Mr. Lock-
wood posesscs,!nd the high character he
sustains, little doubt exists but that he will
soon again be on the road to fortune.
- Upon announcement of the suspension
the workmen employed by Mr. L. in Nor—
walk, were immediately discharged.
THE WESTON Sermon-On Thursday, one
of the most pleasing features of the day was
the drill and review of the scholars of Mr.
Jarvis’s Military Selloo], of Weston. The
boys, numbering about fifty, appeared on the
grounds about 2 o’clock, neatly dressed in a
light grey uniform, “armed and equipped as
‘the law directs,” headed by the City Band of
Bridgeport, in full uniform; The company
went through the manual ofarms, and held
a battalion .dril] according to Upton’s new
tactics. A dress parade was held, after
which the command was formally reviewed
by Brig-Gen. Wm. H. Noble, of Bridgepo’t.
The general appearance Of the company
was very fine, and all their movements were
executed in an accurate and superior man-
ner which would have been highly credita-
ble to the best company in our Conn. Nat.
Guard. They were frequently applauded by
the thousands of spectators, and richly dc-
served all. The band added much interest
to the occasion by their excellent music.

THE COUNTY FAIR.
The weather throughout the entire week
was very favorable for the Fair, and the at-
tendance during tlieweck was very good,
eSpecially on Thursday and Friday.
The Exhibition opened on Tuesday eve—
ning, the attendance being very small, and
the show in the hall slim. Rev. E. S. Roy-
mond delivered the opening address. On
Wednesday many articles were brought in,
but the attendance was hardly as large as
expected. Thursday was the great day,
the Hall, Tent and Grounds being thronged
With people, the Society taking in about
$1,500. "The attendance on Friday was
nearly as large. The Danbury road carried
passengers from Danb12ry and return for
$1.00, and ran trains to and from South Nor-
walk almost hourly, conveying large num-
bers of people. Stages also ran upi‘rom the
bridge constantly, and it was astonishing to
see so many carriages in the streets,——where
did theyall come from ? ‘
Altogether the Fair was very good. The
show of fruit, vegetables, grain, floriculturc,
preserved fruit, and poultry was very fine
—-probably never better; the ladies indust-
rial department and domestic manufactures
was rather small; the show of oxen, cows,
heifers, blooded stock, etc., was not as full
and good as in former years; the velocipedc
race was something new, contested by four
riders; and the trotting did not create as
much excitclnent as usual.
Our crowded space forbids a. more :1
extended notice and we refer to the premi-
um list for full particulars.

The Committee on Fruit are glad to report the ex-
hibition ihisyear a creditable oue,both to the produc-
ers and to the society. The show of Apples not-
withstanding the unfavorable season, is one of great
merit, and that,l of Pears much superior to that Of
the past few years. The samples Of Peaches were
unusually numerous and many of them very fine.
Of Grapes grown under glass there were two exhibi-
tions, both excellent; and of open culture the sam-
ples were numerous and show an evident improve-
ment both in quality and culture. and your commit-
tee earnestly rccomcnd the fostering of this class
of fruit by the society. In making the awards it was
often difficult to decide between so many of so nearly

Fowls are wholly unrepresented on the premium list
of the Society. The Committee would recommend a
correction in this respect unless some :reason uu-' ’
known to them exists for the exclusion of this, as
well as some other valuable breeds of Fowls. En-
hibltors should be requested to exhibit trio: when
competing for-premiums. This is the usual custom
and gives better proof of purity and even develop-
ment in the particular breeds. No more than three
should be shown in onecoop. Nothing is gained by
crowding a number of birds in one small box or coop
as is often done. The exhibitor generally Joses any
chance of favorable notice, as the examiners are un-
