Burglars blew open with dynamite
the safe at the Beachside Inn; Green
Farms, conducted by Mr. and Mrs. J.

' H. Phipps. at an early hour this mom-
ing, and secured about $2,500 in 'cash
and checks, besides other valuable pa-
pers. There were six' men in the gang.
The night watchman who patrols the
premises was bound and gagged, and
the burglars held the inmates of the
hotel at bay while they gathered up tho
booty and made their escape.

‘It was twenty minutes of 3_ o'clock
when Patrick Reagen, the night watch-
man, saw; several'men sitting on the
benches in the grove east of the hotel.
They were lighting matches, evidently
with the intention of drawing the
watchman over to them. He shouted,
asking them what they'wanted, but re-
ceiving no reply, he started across the
lawn. As he approached the men one
burly fellow stepped from behind a tree
and grabbed him by the throat and held
a pistol to his head to prevent him from

been amused by the explosion while
the looting of the safe was going on.

The first person to. make an
investigation after the explosion

‘Was Miss Grant, daughter of Fred-
erick Grant, a New York banker,
who is staying at the hotel with his
family. She had reached the lower
landing of the stairs, when a man
stepped up to her and ordered her back
toher room, shoving a pistol into her
face as .he spoke. She was badly
frightened and obeyed at once. Mrs.
Smith, wife or H. B. Smith, of New
York, owner of the "Wizzard of the
Nile” Opera c impany, naxt appeared ( n
the scene, and was also ordered back at
the point of a revolver.

Kirke LaShelle, of, New York, anoth'
er boarder, bad by this time got partly
dressed. He hurried down stairs, only
tobeheld up and sent back to escape
having his head blown off. Mr. La-
Shelle went back to his room, secured
his revolver, and accompanied by
CharlesS. . Eidlitz. another New Yorker,
determined to find out what was going
on. '

The house by this time was in an up-
roar, women screaming, children cry-
ing, and men shouting to find out what
the trouble was, while some of the more
timid ones became hysterical. The
commotion must have thoroughly alarm-
ed the burglars, for by the time Mr. Ln-
Shelle and Mr. Ei 'tz reached the nrain
liall,‘ the burglars had left, and
we lining down the front walk.
8in c was pouring from the office, and
the open window showed how the bur-
glars had come and departed.

Seeing that there was no fire, Mr.
Eidlitz, who reached the‘ofllce first,

 

wont to the , private telephone
to call up the coacliman. Hi'
found that the wires had been

cut, and :the instrument would not
work. He then tried the long distance

 

making an outcry. Another man. dis-
, armed Reagan, and asked him it he had I
the keys,to.the hotel. Upon giving a.
negative reply, the watchman was ask-l
ed if the guests were all in. He told his
captors he did know. One member of
the gang offered to shoot Reagan, but
the others said “No." Suddenly they
jumped-on him, and in spite of his
struggles he was bound, and, then gag-
ged with his own handkerchief. Chloro-
form was next administered, and that
was the last the watchman remembered
until he was found by the boarders ly-
ingnnconscious on a lounge in the hall
of the hotel.

The burglars evidently worked syste-
matically and with a thorough knowl-
edgeof the premises. as they at"oro:
turned their attention to the window
gunning into the private cities of the
hotel, where the safe is located, and
which is just off the main hall. where
the clerk's desk is stationed. The
window was pried open with a chisel.
the catch being broken and the window
sill splintered.

Upon getting into the office, the burg-
lars openeda side door leading to the
front hall, near the clerk's desk, the
door being locked on the inside. This
gave them plenty of light to work by
fromagae jet in the ball. A crowbar
was found lying on the floor of the office,
and it is presumed the cracksmou tried to
pry through the fire-proof iron sheath-
lug instead of resorting to dynamite.
Thesidesof the safe were dented, but
not penetrated by the bar. A small
hole was then bored through the front
door, a short distance above the mm-
binatlou look. where a heavy charge of
dynamite was injected. No means were
taken to «leadim the explosion, the bar-
glars evidently relying upon their num-
bers to keep the inmates of the place at
bay.

The force of the explosion shattered
the safe door into several pieces, the
outside being blown through a sir-inch
plaster partition, nearly eight feet from
the safe. into the hall. The report was
Mlugly loud. It avmltened the one
hundred and fifty guests in the hotel.
and was heard by some of the neighbors
living in the vicinity.

After the explosion the burglars
gatlmmd up the entire contents of the
safe. not even leaving a scrap of paper
behind. Two of the burglars were sta-
tionodottbefootof thefmt stem to

out and the phone rendered uselem.

By this time the hotel guests throngcd
the hall. John Godfrey, of New York,
ran across to Mr. Phipps' private cot:
tags and apprised the inmates of the
house of the burglary. Mr. Phipps had
been aroused by the explosion and was
already dressing to go over to the hotel.
In the meantime the gagged watch--
man had been found and the story
he told added to the excitement.

Mr. Phipps tried to restore order, and
after sending men to notify the West~
port and Southport police, he hurried to
Charles Soosmitli's residence and tele-
phoned to the Bridgeport police. Chief
Birmingham detailed eight men on the
case and at once started for Green
Farms,accouipanicd by Detective George
Arnold. They made a thorough exami-
nation of the promises and decided that
the men wont towards Westport, tho
chisel which was used in forcing an on-
trance bcing found some distamo east
of the hotel.

The contents of the safe included film)
in cash belonging to Mr. Phipps. nearly
$1,000 in checks which be intended to
dcpiislt today, upwards of #1300 belonging
to Kirko LaSbollo, .70 belonging to .l.
R. lladloy, of New York, nearly 8200 in
three envelopes belonging to some of the
hired help at the hotel, all of the receipt-
ed bills. the certificate of incorporation
and charter of the Bench Lawn club.
and other valuable papers.

When aSentlnel nimrter arrived at
the hotel this morning the robbery we
the chief topic of conversation among
the inmates. who still tlironged the office
or the broad piazza. Miss Cram was
very nervous from her encmmter with
tho burglars. She said the man who
stopped her bottles a slouch but. pulled
well down over his eyes. and was rather
about, mtttllilm helghtmlth amoustache.
Mrs. Smith gives the some description
of the man, stating that another man in
the hall whom she saw bad amour»
techs. was tall and slim. with quite a
redface. He also wore a slouch but.
Reagan told the reporter substantially
the some stmy as given above.

Mr. Phipps is convinced that the burg-
lary was the work of experienced hands
and that they had visited the hotel and

not it was the some gang that oriental

FATHER AND 30” INJURED.

A Sunday Evening Runaway Accident Which
flight ilsve Been Very Btriout.

What might have been a very serious
accident occurred shortly before 7 o’clock
last evening. ,

Frank '_Cal‘i‘roy. an employee of the
Old Well Cigar company. hired a turn-
out at V. A. Scofield’s stables, yester-
day afternoon. and took his family for a
drive. Returningalittle before night-
full, he left is wife and children at
there. home in Cedar street, and taking
his little boy he started for the stable
with the team.

He drove down Water street and turn-
ed into Washington street, when . the
horse became frightened and soon got
beyond his control. At Lauder's corner
the carriage caught in the trolley rails,
and one of the forward wheels wrenchcd
eti', throwing the boy into the street,
beneath the railroad bridge, and tnmb-.
ling the father out in front of Cornstock
Brothers' clothing store.

The twr’) were carried to Baxter’s
drug store, where their injuries were
discovered to be of such a serious nature
as to require the assistance of n physi~
cinn. They were removed to Dr.
Bohannan‘s office, where several stitches
were taken in a large gush on the boy's
fiend. and the father‘s hand, which was
badly bruised and scratched, was dress-
ed.

 

Aside from these injuries they
were somewhat bruised from their full,
and their clothing badly diuiiageil.

The horse was captured late in tin~
evoning in Union street.

A large shark routed a party of Nor—
