NFVV Yonir , February 14. [ .Special.An ]
accident brought to light to day tbo theft of
u considerable amount of silver bullion from
the United Stntos mint at I'hiladelpbia.
Honj.amln F. Calm , a manufacturing jeweler
of this city , entered the olficoof Charles S.
1'latt on Wednesday afternoon nnd olfeiud for
dale a large bai of refined silver. The bar
bora the stamp of Ilia Omaha nnd Grant
Smelting and Kefining compiuy , of Nebras-
leu , and waa numbered 1G'J2'J. ' It weighed
1.0J3.70-100 ounces , or moro than h5 pounds
troy , aid was worth about 81,200. Mi ,
Plate fo rrrerly did the assaying for this com
pany , nn d ho knew it wna not the custom to
send out such bars singly. They always were
sold by the dti" > nor more at a tuna. Sus
pecting .something was wrong , he asked Mr.

true , .ind tint ho bid sold the bar vvlthothera
to the United States government on Jan. ill.
They had been sent at once to the Phtladel-
phi i mint. Ho had rec'ived a receipt nnd
p lyment for them from the mint ou Jan.I. .
Mr. 1'latt knew tbnre waa no way in which
the bar could have left tha mint un e a it had
boon Htolen , .ind ho told Mr. Calm that ho
would retain the bar until a further investi
gation hid been made. Ho then notified the
supoiinti ndent of the nst.ay ollico and he coin-
munic.ated with tbn mint.

though the bar wtighul over seventy pounds

been picked up and htolcn by somovisitor who

thin exf lanution : "On Tuesd iy I received .1

Haul it was very strange that euch a robbery
