Ashland, Wis., Sept 23.- The most cleverly plaimed, daring and successful bank robbery in the criminal annals of this State was executed at Hurley Friday nigrht, when the Iron Exchange Bank was entered by robbers and neariy i40,000 in ca, left there for the night by the United States Express Company, was taken. Some person had entered the bank either by a transom over the rear door or by a key, had opened the outer vault door, to do which he must have known the combination, and had opened the inner door, which required a Yale key of a pattern not easily duplicated. Cashier Reynolds, when seen, said that no one but himself and Assistant Cashier Perrin had ever obtained the combination of the vault door. The ofücers of the bank held a meeting1 Saturday, and after the most caref ui inquiry decided that Cashier Reynolds and the teller could not have been implicated in the att'air. No clews have been obtained.
