Bhoriff Block, a shrewd officer, became aware of the movements of the villains and set a watch over the vault. Thursday night the sheriff was called out of town ou business and departed leaving two deputies on guard. About midnight the men saw in the deep gloopn five men steal around in front of the vault, and opening the doable doors with keys enter and commence werk in the catacomb of Robert, while one paced as guard before the tomb. The depu ties were so cowardly as to run away for help, aad in so doing they aroused the dogs in the neighboring streets, which scared the robbers away. Sheriff Black meanwhile had arrived in the oity, and when he learned of the cowardice of the men be became fairly wild with passion, declaring that he would shoot th'j deputies if he saw them, and bidding all the help they had summoned to keep their distance, the officer went alone into the tomb aud shut the door, where he remained alone in the stench with the dead until morning. Hot a robber appeared, however, and today's examination ahows that the men in the brief period had broken open the coffin with crowbars and Jimmies, leaving' exposed the feet aad knees of the corpse, which were in a perfect state of preservation as far up as the hips, which is all that can be seen. No power on earth short of dynamite or key rould have ever let the robbers in the tomb. Dynamite was not used and no keys keys were ever made except two, which were in tbe hands of the litigating parties. Mo impression of the lock could have been taken, as the inner door is a slub five inches thick with a great lock on the inside re quiring a key *1* inches long. Hence one of the keys in tbe possession of the parties to the suit most have been used. in answer to a question, he said his name was Carlo Montague, of No. 3)3 Forty - seventh street.
