By Telegraph—Press Assn.—Copyright. LONDON, Nov. 16. A daring robbery occurred at the Dublin Penny Bank in Abbey Street. _ 1 Two men with revolvers dashed in near closing time, held up tho clerks and customers, and one jumped over the counter and stuffed £BOO in notes and silver into his pockets, while the other covered the customers with a revolver. The victims were mostly poor people paying in small deposits. Tho robbers, who were young and smartly pressed, compelled the customers to empty their pockets and throw their money on the floor. The robbers then escaped.— Aus.-N.Z. Cable Assn.
