Ohahier Floyd Gagged sad SiltooBd.
FOUR OF TIIK RASCALS CAUGHT.
A most imputent and daring attempt was
Bade by a uuml>er of "professianals" to roh the
Bank of Dtiuwure, in Wilmington, last Friday
evening week, (?tb.). About half-past ids o'clock
ha family of (ha cashier, Sami. Floyd,
was at tra, a knock at the door was heard. Mr.
Fiord opeoed tira door when a man, masked,
pushed by Mr. F. and eoterad the room. Mr. K.
thinking tho roan insane stepped out to call the
police and waa seised by four or five other men
one of whom presented a pistol at his head
mandiug him to keep silent, which order Mr.
Floyd very sensibly obeyed. In fact ha couldn't
well do anything else for his visitors not trusting
to the quieting qualities of the revolver applied
a gag to hit mouth ami a pair of bracelets to hi*
arms. Tho unhidden guests then entered tho
room where the ladies were still vugaged at the
table and made the same request for silence of
thero. presenting the same inducements to them
that they first presented to lira cashier. But the
ladite wora not so easily controlled 02 doubtles t
the profesaioNu!«' lud call ulatrd upon. Tl'ey
to havo forgot ion or not to have knnwu that
fair woman is sometimes refractory, and ns the*«*
soom not to have been ' 'deinem to looking vil
lains" the Indies were, evidently, not much a
fraid of the tiistols in their hands, for whenever
mea use such gentle terms aa "my net lamb" to
feminines they nreda't expect the d
to be afraid of them even though they attempt to
frighten then» with pistols, bowie-knives, etc.
There were present in the room with Mr. Floyd,
his wife, his sister, two nieces anti a colored wo
, tho cook. When the would-bo burglar*
entered, all armed and masked, one of the young
er ladies partially swooned. This somewhat
disco»« erteil the ''gentlemanly robbers'' who
seem to have Imd no intention to injure anybody,
and turned their attention a little from the rest
of the initiates of the room. While their polite
Attcntioa was turned to tke fainting lady, the
colored woman, who had dodged under a table
made an attempt to slip out of tho door but was
caught nnd stopped. While they were stopping
her, however, the other of the young ladies. Miss
Ka:«s, suddenly bounced from under another
tabls and out at the door. One of the men
dertook to catch her, but ns many others have
dravors to catch the fair sex—he failed,
lie might ns well have tried to catch a streak of
greased lightning as that girl. She went out of
that house and along the streit liken shot. Then
it was "»11 up" with the hank robbery. Those
fellows knew that the best thing they could do
would be to make thems«*1ves scarce This they
did. and Mrs. Floyd und the cook holloaed lust
ily for the police, who, of coarse, !»elng
were not there. Officer Cnrbcrry, howrer. heard
tho calls for Iralp nnd hastened to tho scene, nnd
learning tho condition of things started in hot
haste in pursuit of the fugitive*. Seeing a su*
K icioiu looking character going up Market St.
e followed him. The officer continued the
chase through several struts, nnd on Walnut
Eighth he discovered just ahead of him
three men otic* of whom was the man he had been
following. He called to the men to stop, that he
ted to see them. They stopped and waited
until he got up to them nnd asked w hat he w*ot
cd. Ho asked them why they w«*re in such a
burry. Une of them replied by Upping him on
the head with a black-jack, another, at the same
lime, gave him a rap over the cranium with a
heavy chisel nnd the third treated him to the
contests of a revolver, but the hall fortunately

and was about again next day.
Officer lleltrick, afi«*r carefully searching th*
bank premises, went home, took off his uniform
and donned aeltlrcns* dress and started out to
look fur the burglais. Seeing two suspicious
looking fellows

and gave chase. The fellows ran la a north

Avenue where they wer« joined by another In a
buggy, evidently a "pal." They all got into
the buggy nnd a rove rapidly away nu«t for the
time escaped, but lira telegraph is a Imd thing
for rogues. Information was sent flying over
the wire* in every direction. That wii# the lust
that was seen of tke burglars that night. The
excitement, however, being at ferer heat, the
police kept on tho trail aad continued the search.
The next day the most diligent search revealed
the fact that tliu head-quarters of the gang had
liera in a house nt the south-west corner of Ninth
and Poplar Sts. nnd a generous haul was made
of the Int— t nnd most approved patterns of
"professional instruments." Shortly after
other bouse nt the corner of Ninth and Kirkwood

suspicious characters. Ths police, in cousc
