The officers who are at work upon the case are confident that the robbery was committed by the same parties who burglarized the post of- fice at this place New Year morning, and who looted the Marlboro’ post office late in December. This theory is supported by a number of circumstances. In the first place, experts declare that the character of work done in opening each of the three safes is strikingly similar. The tools used in the New Year robbery and the recent raid were stolen from the blacksmith shops of Bladensburg, which would indicate that the burglars were thoroughly acquainted with the “lay” of the neighborhood. ‘The most significant fact, however, is that the same two suspicious’ characters who were seen New Year ove loafing near a tool box cn the Alexandria branch of the Baltimore and Ohio railroad only a few hundred yards from the post office,.were also seen at 12:10 o'clock Friday morning hiding be- hind a telegraph pole just in the rear of the depot. ‘A prominent citizen of this place, whose name {3 withheld, came out on the train which leaves Washington at. 12:01.
