Pald Policy-holders and the!r represent- atives in 1877, $5,234,276.70, The maturing Tontine Policies of the Equitablo show, by actual figures, that this system Includes all the advantages clalmed for it, s illustrated by the fol- lowing example: Results attalued on Policy No. 64,614, issucd In 1870, on tho life of a gentleman 61 years of age., The original premium was §1,229.40 3 his noxt premium will bo £308.80, which Is a dividend rednctlon of moro than 75 per cent, and it is reasona- ble to expect an Increase in the subse- quent annual dividends, Tho Tontine accumulations, with the accruing divldends, amount on maturing policies of this class to from 70 to 85 per cent of the aunual premiums, From this, it Is ovidont that with many policles for the longer periods, there will be a surplus which will in some cases EXTINGUISH THE ENTIRE PREMIUM, and will in other cases give tho polloy-holder AN IN- COME IN ADDITION TO CARRYING THE ORIGINAL AMOUNT OF HIS IN- SURANCE. The Equitablo introduced this plan of Insnrance In 1808, and the RESULTS are proving the accuracy of the actunrial com- putatlons which led to its adoption.

TIHF, GREAT ROBBERY, nectal Dispitch tn Tha Tribun New Yons, Oct. 23.—The police arc all at sea in regard to the burglara who so successfully broke the Manhattau Bavk. They assert that tuey have developed satisfactory facts, but it is belleved they have nothing beyond suspicion to guide them, They sro undoubtedly nettled at the affalr, and all the detectives available are working on the case. A more extraordinarily mysterious burziary has seldom been committed. Iv was skiilfully placned and executed, and at every step the robbers were favored by circumstances. | Thero s no explanation of how seven men carrying three larvé Lags of tools could en- ter the huilding unobserved at. O In the murainy, and the jenitor says ho is cer- taln nobody was secreted In the bullding over night, es ho mada his usual {nvestigation, It s probable, howover, that tho burglars entered the janitor's part of the bullding bLefore doybreak, and went for him fmmediately upon the night-watchman's departure, They disposed of the milkman by telting bim that the janitor bad gone (nto tho country. The greatest wonder of all s how the burg- Jars could ghave departed at balf-past O with the bags of booty without belng’ scen..

The offiers say, fn excuse, that thelr $40,000-vault was nover intendea ' to be burglar- proof, but only ‘fire-proof. Their re- llance was entirely on the inuer safe, ‘This proves.to bo un old one, patched up with two new compartmeuts, Thesc the burglars could nat broak, and in these were the sccurls tis of President Hehell and Augustus Sehell, his brother. It Is asserted, despite the officials’ reticenca, thot at lenst sixty bank-managers fn this vity futrust tho safe combinations to thelr jan- ftors, A run on the bank seems improbable, &s only 130 0f tho 17,000 depositors have notified the bank of an intentlon to withdraw thelr accounts. ‘The varlous tenants of the bank bullding say that suspicious-looking men have for somne tine been hanglog about the premises making inquiries about rooms to rent. ta losses, the bunk officers sav the deposit- ors, with ons oxception, had mno realizablo valuables {n thielr boxes, und their papers and sccurities wero left undistusbed, Ooe man claims a loss of $7,600 in notes.

On this account, while the victimized bsnkers re- fused to tell what theyknew, Etheridge’s neigh- bors and the community generally wers Inclined to thiok grest Injnstice was oeing done him. It appears that, as agent for the Trust Comps- oy, he was In the. hadit of negotiating loans, and, when papers were drawn and approved by the Company’s attorney hers, he would take the plg ers to the express office, for- ward them to the Ncw = York office, and, with the express roceipts therefor, go to the bank and obtain an advance of moncy for his borrowers. As he frequently drow for large sums, Le dealt with several banka, choos- ing whichever was best prepared to accommo- date him. Hence, be was able to divide his late oncrations amoog several banks. A special avent for the Mcreaotils Trust Company had heen here several days examining Ethridee's accounts, and lust Wednesdav evening it leaked out that he had discovercd some serious dis- ¢repancies, Next morning It transpired that Etherldge had_left the city. ‘The same day the Second Natfonal Bsnk learned from New York tuat s draft for $300 it bad reccived from Etheridge in Kumem of the note and anottier for :mu which it had cashed, were thrown out at New York and pro- nounced fraudulent.

A well-known man-about- town is given as authority for tho statement that Etherldze had a mistross who left the city onlya few davs ago. There 18 no doubt but that this fast “is near the truth, and It may be supposed that he had tbus expended something more than belonged to bun, and, fluding detection ucar, concluded to steal enanJh to travel with, e has mnost care- fully and deliberately planned and carried out his crime, Such wns tbe confidence the man- agers of the Mercantile Trust Company had in him, that of late ycars they have not required from_him the usual bonds In security, aud he has had frequent oppoftunitics to have de- camped with much more moncy than he is now known to have taken. - Apecial Niwatch ts The Tribune. 87, Paut, Minn., Oct. 28,—LATER—I learn that tho Merchants' Natfonal Bank of this ity last Wednesday cashied g chieck for $12,000 fs- sucd by Ftherldgre Tuesday in' Minneapolis, in purchasiug cxehiange thore; also that he further drafts for $0,000 not reported among those cashed at Milwaukee, Special DieguleR & The Tribune.
