They are nttor us." cried one of them, "and

. This was the last tho people in the hotel
heard of the burglars and the last that the po
llen of South Norwalk an Urldgepurt hae
heard of them up to date. Ther disappeared,
leaving behind the blasted safe, the uncon
scious, Hartlgan, and the steel chlel. As
soon as they entered the small room the men
cut the wires, both the lm aland longdistance
telephone, and them was no means of calling
for assistance ln that way. So a committee of
fiesta was formed and called at Proprietor
rnlpps's cottage adjoining the hotel to Inform
him of wht hsd happened. Mr. Thlpra was
awakened and started toward the hotel. When
ho got to the plana the news reached him that
evervthlng ln the hotel safe had been taken.
This was too much, and ho fell tn a faint on
the piazza. It, took some time to revive him.
and when he had come to himself and thought
that a message might be sent from a neigh
bor s telephone nearly three-auartsrs of an
hour had passed. He fired a shot near ths
stable In order to wake up tht men employees,
but ths burglars had already a start of nearly
an hour.
The men took everything ln the safe. Ths
amount they got ln money amounted to about
1,300. Four hundred dollars belonged to
Mr, La Shelle, (78 represented the receipts
from the charity performance, anc more than
100 was the wages! of tenants which Imd
been deposited there for safety; the rest of It
belonged tn Mr. Phtpps, but $80 of whst was
taken from hlra was ln checks.
The Superintendent o the Bridgeport police
and a forctt of men started down towaid
Green's Farms to head oil the men as soon as
the alarm was received: tel.grsms were sent
to tho New York police and the police at Nor
walk, while men wero stationed along the
beach to prevent the robbers escaping ln
boats: but It Is believed that rt least two of
them came on horseback. ar the spot at
which they were first seen by Watchman Har
tlgan, the road was found to have been torn
up as though by the hoofs of horses that had
been kept standing there for some time. At tl
o'clock It was decided there was no chance of
arresting tha men Immediately. Mr. 1'hlpns,
the proprietor ot the hotel, said that he han no
reason to believe that ther were the same men
who had robbed ths hotel two weeks ago at
Hoton IMlnt.
"I am perfectlr certain," he told Trig Sew
reporter, "that there was somepody In tht
gong who knew enough about the hotel to
know that Sunday night was the best time to
undertake the robbery. Who lt was. I have no
Idea. I have not discharged any of ny em-
Slayees this year, and the police have no more
nowledge tf who tha men may be than I
have."
After the men had escaped there was no sleep
for the gueats of the hotel. They dressed ana
came down stairs to talk over the robbery.
The only practical result to most of them was
the loss of several hours' sleep and a phenom
enallv good appetite for breakfast. Mr. Phlnns
hod It served an hour ahead of time, and they
stopped talking about the robbery long enough
to eat, but they were at tha robbery again
soon after breakfast. They talked about lt
all of to-day on tha lawn and on the piazzas,
where piquet and embroidery were for the first
time at a discount.

The Oouvsrneur Hospital authorities mads a
serious blunder Tuesday night of last week.
when they officially declared dead a patient
who was oa tha nigh road to recovery. The pa
tient was Charles Blrdsall, and he Uvea with his
tlstsr and her husband at South Third and
Berry streets. Wllliamshurga. He was em
ployed aa a driver by D. McNamara. a dealer ln
grain at S3 Pitt street. On Tuesday ha was
prostrated by the heat while delivering groin to
Solomon Alter of 11 Montgomery street, and
was removed to Oouvsrneur Hospital uncon
scious. That same night Mr. McN'amara heard
of his misfortune and sent a man around to ths
hospital to find out how ha was getting along.
A doctor at tha hospital told the messenger that
Blrdsaii was dead, and later ths death was
officially given out and appear ed,. la JYffiftCii,
day morning's papers.
Taere was grist tn Blrdtall's noms when Mr.
McXamara sent word of the man's death, and
arrangements were made at once to have tha
body sent to Wllliamsbursh. Friends, relatives.
and neighbors gathered In the nousa, and an
undertaker was hired to take charge ot tha body
as soon as It arrived.
The body of ice dead man waa sent over on
Wednesday, but as soon as tha sheet ln which
It was wrapped was removed tt was seen that It
was not Blrdsall's body. Messengers were hur
ried over to the hospital to find out what It all
meant, and whet; they got there they learned to
their great joy that a mistake bad been made,
and that Blrdsaii was not dead. Investigation
by the hospital authorities showed that there
bad been a mizup of names, and that the dead
man had been registered as Blrdsall.
Blrdsall waa well enough yesterday morning
to return to his home in YVUIlamsburgh. Ha
ate a good meal on bis arrival last evening, and
received tha congratulations of his fr ends,
many of whom had not learned tnat he was yet
In tha land or the living. He would not discuss
the mistake, but his sister, Mrs. SUinhardt,
said:
"I cannot understand how the mistake was
made, nor have I lrarned the name of the victim
of the heat supposed to have been my brother
I only know that wa have bin put to conquer
able exDense, and believe tha: the hospital au.
thorlties should reimburse us."

BAnntTOWM. Aug. 17. Mr. and Mrs, William
Jennings Bryan reached Upper Red Hook to
day and have settled down for a qulst week at
the horns nt E. C. Perrlne. Mrs, Perrlna waa
onea Mrs. Bryan's school teacher. Her husband
Is the leading Republican of the Tillage, Post
master, and storekeeper. He lives In an unpre
tentious but comfortable frame house adjoining
his store. Tha Popocratlo candidate could
hardly hava ohosen a better place to rest before
the campaign. The village Is one of but a few
hundred Inhabitants and lt six miles from the
railroad station at Barry town.
During the evening Mr. Brran mst tha press
representatives. Whsn asked whether hs would
answer Bourke Cockran's spetch to-morrow
night, hs said:
"Mr. Cockran and I discussed the silver ques
tion and the Income tax Question In Congress.
If he advances any new arguments ther can go
to the country along with my speech ot last
week. I shall not return to New York until the
latter part ot September, when I expect to speak
briefly In Brooklrn on my way to New England,
and In New York on my return from New Eng
land." Mr. Bryan was questioned regarding Mr.
Thurston's demand that he reply to the charge
made by a Chicago newspaper that he had been
hired by the silver mine-owners to ttump the
country In their Interest, lie said that this
storv bad been denied several times, and that a
denial would again be made at any early date.
Mr. and Mrs. Bryan left John Brtsben
Walker's house at Irvlngton at 0 o'clock. Mr.
Sewall started for New York an hour earlier,
accompanied by Mr. Walker. Mr. and Mrs.
Bryan took the 0:11 train from Irvlngton.
There was nobody except Mr. Walker at the
train to see them off. Ther left the train at
Yonkcrs. where a crowd ot about flftr men
waited In the station to greet them. As soon as
the crowd caught tight of the Boy Orator the
men ran for him and surrounded him. Then
began a scramble to thake his hand. Mr. Bryan
and his wife submitted with good grace, and
shook hands with everybody that cams their
way. Then soms one asked them for their auto
graphs, and they were soon distributing them.
The crowd Increased aa the candidate, his wife,
his secretary, Mr. Cutwrlgnt, and Mr. Walker
began to make their way toward the steamboat
dock.
The Boy Orator, ln his broad pearl-colored
bat, his light sack coat, and low-cut vest.
showing a great exnanse of linen, lean unusual
figure. Every one recognized him at once, and
by the lime the dock was reached the crowd
had increased to several hundred. The steam
boat Albany was late: In the Intervening time
the Bryant distributed autograph. The crowd
cheered when they stepped over the gangplank,
and a few ot the passengers on the upper deck
of the Altaar Joined In. It was evident, how
ever, that ths people had gathered more from
curiosity than from any enthusiasm for the
candidate.
General Manager Oleott of the company met
ih Bryans and escorted them to the parlor state
rooms that were set aside for them. Mr. Oleott
explained that the company bad declined to
-sloa-Uke boat allrvlnglaa tn take thsm on there
because ot the lack of docking facilities and the
danger of running a small boat alongside the
steamer In a nlgb wind at high tide, some one
tnggeated mat Mr. Bryan hold a reception.
Wbo mada the augreitlon It not known, but he
loet no time tn following It. With his wife ha
took n.t place In the cabin, and a number of
passengers filed by him end shook hands with
him and his wife. About J00 persons. UO per
rant, of wham were women, made use of this
opportunity to meet the Popocrstic candidate.
Among the crowd was a small bor neatlr clad
ln a blue sailor suit. He seamed to hesitate
about holding out his hand to Mr. Brran. who
speedily realized the cause, for be spied a Mc
Klnler button In the lapel ot the boy's coal.
" I do not think I ought to ahaka handa with
you." laughed the Bor Orator. Tha bor tailor's
father teemed greatlr perturbed.
"ou tea. Mr. Bryan." ha tUmmerad. "a lit
tle girl gave It to him, and be has to wear it."
"It ain't so," ytlled the boy sailer. "1 bought
It myself."
"Then I'll siva you another and make rou a
bimetalllst." tald the Bor Orator, and no
reached down into hit pocket and drew forth a
Hrran button, which he fattened tn the lad's
collar.
The reception took about half an hour, and
then Mr. and Mrs. Bryan went to the pilot
house, where they watched the tcenerr along
the river. There waa not much Popocratlo tan
llment on tha boat. The people stared at the
candidate, but few were heard to ezpress any
alm ration of the principles for which he
stands. The bor at the news stand reported
that be sold sixteen McKlmey buttons, and not
a single Bryan badge. 1 he Bor Orator and hi
wife were at dinner with Hugh J. Brady, chair
man of the Democrallo Central Committee of
Be Louis, whom they met on lb boat. When
Newburgh was reached about J00 men
had assembled on the dock there. Ther
thought that a vansrable smooth-faced
man wbo was facing the dock was he
whom tbr sought and they began to cheer
him lustily. He bowed graciously. Down in
ih dining room the Bor Orator heard th
cheers and sprang from the table and ran up on
deck and bowed repeatedly. When the crowd
found the right inn they gave him a few (table
hurrahs About 700 people were awaiting
Bryan at Poughkeeosle when the boat reached
the dock at 1 15 o clock, but that they were
drawn there largely by cnrloitr was evident
from the weakness of the demonstration. A
mob surrounded Mr and .Mrs Bryan a they got
off tne lioat. Ther was more handshaking
and distribution of autographs. A pullcaman
took chrKe of the Boy Orator and bis wife and
made way for them to the station. block dls.
tant About 400 men and boys followed at
their heels. Cries of "Mpeechl" "bpeechl" be-

declarations that he would nut open hi mouth

In reaching this spot wo have pasted np the

of which, until this visit, we knew nothing.
We have been Impressed with the fact
that this river and Its surroundings are not
only pleating to the eye of those who
love beauty ofscenery, but are also pleating to
those wbo are Interested ln the hlstorlo scenes
of Kevolnllonary days. We shall remember
with great delight this, onr first acquaintance
with them; we are glad to find our rest
In thlt qntet place among the people
who exemplify the truth spoken by the
wlteman so many bundred years ago. When
Solomon said that he desired neither riches nor
poverty, he gave expression to a thought that
we may well consider. In snob a community as
tbls w find an equality and fraternity, and we
find people bound together ln a friendship
that promises well for all that Is
good and uplifting In ths human race.
We are glad to come among you. We are glad
to rest here a few dayt from the weariness ot
the campaign, and we are pleased to know
that you, who live among these mountains
where you can take a broader vtsw of these
earthly scenes, are also, as cltlxsns, able
to rt and take a broad view of our

lay aside for the moment all political thought

" I have always lived among those who dif

some of my best friends among those who could

I sxpect to find It that war this year

glad that friendship, affection, and lore are
strong enough to cross all lines and bind to

BiLrAST, Aug, 17. A large Nationalist dem
onstration In favor of granting amnesty to all
Irish political prltonsrs took place here to
day, and waa the cause of serious riot
ing. An Immtntt procession of Nationalists
marchsd through tht strseti of the city
and proceeded to Ilannattoun. a suburb ot
Belfast, headed by bands of music and display
ing numerous banners bearing Inscriptions In
dicating the purpose of the movement. The
streets were lined with spectators, who hooted,
groaned, and Jeered the processionist, and
finally threw a few stones at the paraders.
Some of tbe paraders were armed with spears,
and these men made an attack upon their tor
mentors, despite the efforts of the police, who
were out ln full force, to prevent them. A.
fierce fight entued, and the police mada sev
eral charges with drawn batons upon tha
combatants, as the result of which there were a
great number of broken heads. A dozsn or
more of the rioters on both sldss wsre taken to
the hospital after order was restored.
All of thlt occurred before noon. Later the
city magtttrates held a meeting and Ordered
that the troops be In readiness tn put down the
disturbances which tt was feared would occur
when the paraders returned from Hannaatoun
ln the evening.
Every preparation was aooordlngly made to
suppress any attempt at rioting, and for a time
the centre of tbe city to which the dltburbancee
of the morning were confined was quiet, al
though the streets were alive with excited
people.
The procession returned to Bslfast ln the
evening, when It was soon seen that the mis
givings ot the authorities were not unfounded.
As the procession approached the city the great
est excitement prevailed.
A number of opposition mobs had gathered
along ths Intended routeot the procession on Its
return, with the object of making an
attack upon the paraders, and to prevent
rioting ths police barred the route which
had been laid out for the return
march of the procession and turned the parade
oft Into another street. In the mean time a
heavy rain began falling, but this bad not the
tllgbiett effect ln diminishing the size of the
crowds which tnronged th streets, nor ln allay
ing tbe exoltement of the people.
The orowd was not aware of tbe exaet route
taken by the paraders until It, was too late to
make an attack upon them, and tbe procession
broke up without further fighting.
Tbe outlook, however, continued to be men
acing until quite a late hour, but despite tbe
threats that were mad there was no further
dlsordsr. The rain continued to tall heavily,
and this Dually had the effect of ksausing the
mob to dltperte.
The Incident called to mind the serious trou
bles between the Catholics and Orangemen that
occurred some years ago, when a number of
persons were killed by the troops who had been
called out to restore order.
