The meat market owned by Clar-
ence A. Buttery at ii Water street.
Norwalk. was burglarlsed last night
and upwards of $60 worth of plunder

‘ secured.

The market is directly across the
street from the ‘Norwnlk Police Head-
quarters; but this did not phase the
burglars in the least. and they evi-
dently worked as coolly as though the
ofleers were miles away instead of in
the near vicinity.

The intruders came up the track.

cant lot on the east side of the mark-
et broke a pane of glass in one of the
side windows. and pushing the catch

. stepped inside.

From the amount of plunder carried
be traced all over the market by a
trail of half burned matches which
..they left behind. The cash register

contained but seven cents and was left
open in order that, should any one en-
ter the place they would not smash 1'.
with the hope of securing the con-
tents. The fact that the draw of the
register was open led the thieves to

, exert all their energies on the ice box.
This they cleaned out, taking the
choicest cuts of beef,.veal and lamb.
besides several hams and half a peek
of clams.

From the amountofp lunder carried
away there must have been two or
three men at the job. The evidently
threw the meat into a box which two
of then carried while the other kept
an eye on the police to be sure the
coast was clear. The thieves left by
the window through which‘they had
entered and retraced their steps down
the bank to the railroad track. Marks
made by the box as the burglars stop-
ped to rest could be seen in the soft
earth on the bank and by the side of
the track. In this manner the in-
truders were traced as far as the Wa-
ter street crossing. it is believed
they took a team at this point or went
some distance further and put the
plunder in a small boat and rowed
off.

Mr. Buttery discovered the burglary
upon arriving at the market shortly
after 6 o'clock this morning. and at
once notified Officer Hunt. The old-
cer made a careful investigation. but
could discover no clue. When a Sen-
tinel representative visited the place
shortly afterwards he found Mr. But-
tery making out a schedule as near
as he could of what had been taken. It
included a rump and a round of beef,

New York. October 20—The early
morning conditions again raised the:
hopes of the yachtsmen. Off The Bat-
tery there were prospects of just the
sort of a rattling racing wind that Sir
Thomas Lipton had said he most de-
sired. The sky was overcast with
clouds. suggestive of storm and gale.
and just enough blue visible here and
there to make weather prophets Wary.

Sandy Hook. at 8 a. m., reported a
seven-knot breeze. blowing there from
the northeast. Oil the battery it was
northwest. The reporter at the Hook.
added, however, that the wind was in-
creasing in strength, which, in a mea-
sure, wns consoling.

The observer of the Associated Press
at Asbury Park. Long Branch and Gail-
lee reported the wind from one to four
miles. northeast and freshening.

At 8:30 Galilee said a twenty—knot
breeze was whistling along at that
point, with prospects of a still harder
blow. The Highlands reported fifteen
knots.

Aboard the racing yachts. at their
anchorage in Sandy Hook Tiny, the
crews were busy with preparations for
a race.

The sky began to show signs of clear-
ing. Sandy Hook Lightship could be
made out from the Highlands. and the
atmosphere gave every indication of
becoming clearer as the sun got high—
er.

The Shamrock did not take a pre-
liminary sail inside The Horseshoe as
she did yesterday, but remained at her
moorings untu the time arrived for
her to leave for the start.

The wind being north northeast here
this morning there was every prospect
two hours before the start. that the
yachts would again be sent off the
wind, and that the turning mark would
be placed off Asbury Park.

It is a somewhat singular coinci-
dence that out of the live starts that
the yachts have made on n windward
and leeward course, four of them had
been down the wind and every one of
those four attempts have been fizzled.
The only race on the fifteen mile course
has been when the yachts started on a
beat to windward. which occurred on
Monday of this week. There was evv
cry hope expressed this morning that
the yachts might finish a leeward and
windward race.

Shortly after 0 o'clock the Shamrock
hoisted her malnsail and prepared to
leave for the starting line.

The two racers, as usual, left their
moorings for the starting line about
9 o'clock. The green racerdecllned
the services of her tug, and breaking
out her jib stood up for the main
ship channel on the starboard tack.
Just as she came around on the port
tack the Columbia's tug took the white
racer in tow for the sitsrt. Before she
left the Columbia's crew hoisted her
malnsall. The wind at 0:30 was a lit-
tle east of north, and still blowing a
good fifteen knots an hour at the High-
lands. A number of coasters going to

The Associated Press Despatch Boat
Dalzell, of Sandy Hook Lightship. 0c-
tobcr 20-Down about the starting line
this morning there were more ideal
conditions of a race than on any day
during the time for the series.

At 9 o'clock the sun drove away the
gray clouds that earlier had been ding-
ing drops of nasty moisture and there
was promise of a day of clear sunshine.
good breeze and a racing sea, a combi-
nation that has not been prevalent dur-
ing the unfortunate trial days.

The wind at that hour was blowing
fully fifteen miles an hour from the
north northeast. with every indication
that it would be more east, sending the
yachts down the Jersey coast.

The tide was running ebb and the
wind therefore did not kick up such a
sea. although it meant the swashlng of
the lee rails and the burying of noses
once’ in awhile for the yachts.

The line of observation was some-
what limited at 9 o‘clock by a little fog
and a great deal of haze. but the brisk:
wind and the fog cleared it away some-
what an the morning advanced. There
was some disposition on the part of
many old weather-wise ones near the
start, however, to be skeptical about
the stout breeze holding out for the
race.

it was nearly 9:30 when the observ-
ers near the starting line saw the white
wings of the yacht appearing out of
the haze and jumping along under a
spanking breeze toward the line.

The Shamrock pushed her nose
through the form as if the hrsuse had
been made expressly for her. The
Columbia set up straighter and looked
a trifle dignified. but both sped along
in a manner that spoke well for a
closer content than any preceding one
if the stiff wind would bold-out. The
yachts bad ignored their towboats for
the first time, and had jumped out the
smooth water of the Hook into the
choppy sea and under their own sell

as If rejoicing at their ability to move 0

so rapidly.

The Shamrock had her ma'insnll and

jib set when she started out, and the
Columbia had up her mainsail only.
Even with that small amount of nail
they came tearing along toward the
starting point. driving the choppy sea
