TO GUARD THE AMERICAN MILLIONAIRE.
Having failed to receive proper attention to the representations made fiom time to time as to the unprotected state of the homes of the millionaire class while their owners were absent, the New Yprk police on hi.cciii Sunday broke into no ie_3 than fortv-. x iiiiuisions, ana remained iv them long enough to have robbed them thoroughly before they were discovered by tlie sleepy car.takers." In every instance the men "told off for the work went through the lower floors, and had ransacked the bedroom flooi* before the carotakei. discovered they were on th© premises- 1« each instance a report was prepaid of the valuables found, and which could have been easily carried off, and the forwarding of thes. particulars to the various householders will, it i_ expected, cause a sensation amoug millionaires who leave their valuables insufficiently guarded.
