SOUTH BIND, Ind., Dec. 8.--The South Bend National bank, one of the largest hanks la northern Indiana, has been robbed et over $15,01)0. The bold deed was committed in broad daylight white hun­ dreds of people were on the street, and the robbers snocr ded in getting away with their ricli b >otv without leaving the slight, st cine. Chief Benjamin Rose was at out.- in.orr.i -d, and »et his officers at Work :n:siediately, but so far no clue of any reliance has been obtained. Every train or other meant of leaving the city is oarefuliy watched, and the officers hope to obtain some tangible clue soon. Chief Rose believes there were no less than lour men in the gang, and possibly more. lh® Cashier Picks Up * Chisel, Cashier Myrin Campbell remained at the bank, which is in the heart of the iity, until all the employes were gone. He then, as he supposed, locked the middle Aoor of the big vault and left everything ta the usual shape at the noon recess. It was fifteen minutes after 18 o'clock when he left. At ten minnres of one he returned, entering by the lit»nt street door. He parsed down the corridor alongside the i-aaiiier's, collectors' and other desks and turned to his left to enter the door open­ ing back of this line of continuous desks. A* he was about to enter the door his foot >truck a chisel. He picked it up, hut (nought notbiug of the matter as the ('lumber* had been in the buiidiug and had passed by where he found the chisel, he thinking they had dropped it. Me Suddenly "Smells a lffleaf** Ten liiiantes later Assistant Cashier Brown called trn attention to the ohiseL Mr. Brown's suspicions were aroused to such an extent that an investigation was immediately instituted and the men found a rear window op»s, the back door un­ locked and the door between the directors' room and the counting rootu mutilated. A rush was then made for the vault. The door was as Mr. Campbell left it. They swung it back aud examined the safe within. A glance showed that money had been taken, but tbey could not tell how much. The police were at once uotided, and during the afternoon business went on about as usual. No particular effort was ntade to determine the exact amount until the day's balances were made up. And the Boodle Was SIft,eoo. And then it was developed that the robbers had secured 115,9JO. There is little doubt but the bauk has been watched for several days, perhaps weeks. It is located on North Michigan street, and has an immense plate glass front* The cashier is located less than ten feet from the front and his desk , books and currency are always in plain sight; from across the street oue can see clear through to the directors' room and all over the counting room, the vault doors being in plain view. At the dntrs aud windows are heavy curtains, but these were up at time of the robbery and every portion of the large counting room was fully ex- posed, with a stream of people continual­ ly passing on either side of the street. SOUTH BEND Ind., Dec. 11.--The police have a clue to the perpetrators of the South Bend robbery. The man on whom suspicion rests is the notorious gold brick man Frank Smith, who assisted Red Aus­ tin in swindling George W. Swyuart, of this city, out of $7,000 last year. Smith's picture has been identified as that of a man who was seen in front of the bank about the time the robbery was com­ mitted. AFTER THE GUARANTEE COMPANIES, ILLINOIS STATE NEWS.
