Tar “Rep Bri” Gaxo.—In the Police Court Saturday Wm. Active, John Jones, John Moore, Wm. Lemon, Andrew Carter, John Carter and Seabrook Smith, young colored men, were charged with — ‘ly conduct, Officer Cur- six-year-old son of John Johnson, i li Conduit road, A RESURRECTIONIST FOILED. Surprised in the Act of Robbing @ Grave He Makes His Escape. The first resurrectionist of the season made his appearance last night Graceland ceme- tery was the place selected and the grave de- Spoiled was that which contained the remains ofJohn H. Brooks, « colored waiter about thirty-two years old. He had lived at No. 332 Garfield avenue, but when be was taken ill bis Felatives sent bim to Freedman’s bospital, where he died Friday night. Brooks’ relatives, although poor, intended to give his remains decent burial, A sits was selected in Grace- land cemetery and the body was prepared for burial by an undertaker. The corpse was Placed in a neat coffin, on the lid of which was asilver plate bearing the inscription “At Rest,” The necessary permits were obtained and Saturday afternoon the grave wae du by John Arthar, colored. Near —— Burgers wae digging another grave. While the men were thus engaged Andrew Jackson, —- colored em] of ‘7, Was at re; meme oue. ‘vi THE HELPING WAND, , The three men were bard at work whens stranger appeared among them. He wasa short, thick-set man with a mustache. He wore a black Prince Albert suit and a silk hat. “Hello, there,” he said to Arthur, “let me ip you.” As "All right,” responded the digger, “come wn.” retty hard work, isn’t it?” Pi heen — was Arthur's repls my “How much do you oh tee Glawing ves? the stranger then asked. satciy “Oh, not much,” replitd the old man. After being told when the interment would be made the stranger departed. THE STRANGER UXDER SUSPICION. “I believe dat man's a slap doctor,” said one of the colored men. Then the three heads neared each other, and the stranger's suspi- cious actions were discussed, Jackson, who is foreman of the laborers; came to the concla- sion that the man was a doctor, and had come to spot the grave. Hi ted the facts to Superintendent Gafford of the cemetery, and he decided to have the grave watched. Aoc- cordingly he sent for cers Slack and Fifield, who were on duty last night, and about 8 o'clock last night they went on guard duty, GUARDING THE GRAVE, Policeman Slack took his position at Hol- land’s store, opposite the cemetery expecting to see the wagon of the resurrectionists when it appeared, Superintendent Gafford and Officer Fifield took their positions in the cemo- tery. The grave was only afew fect from the northern boundary of the cemete ry near the and rail fence that encloses the ground. They took tions pear trees about ff ards from the grave and waited patic ntly for the occival of the “cadaver-bunters, About 9 o'clock the sky war covered with clouds so that the watchers were in total dark- ness, SUDDEN APPEARANCE OF “THE NIGHT DOCTOR.” It was a few minutes after 9 o'clock when the “night doctor” made bis appearance in the cemetery. How he gotin no one knew, but Officer Fifield heard his footsteps on the gravel walk. He waiked through the grounds like he owned the place, Presently he struck a match near the fence and found the grave he was looking for. The light disappeared ne suddenly as it appeared and then the form of « man was seen in his shirt sleeves. The white shirt was the only thing that made the resur- rectionist visible, The noise made by his shoveling was heard fora minute or so and then nothing was heard until the box inclosing the coffin was broken. It took nearly 90 min- utes for the intrnder to finish the job, The odicers, being unable to see the man, had to guess at the time. They were waiting ‘for the arrival of a vehicle tocart the body away. SUDDEN DISAPPEARANCE OF TUR “NIGHT DOCTOR.” The superintendent fearing that the man would getaway with the body, started on his hands and knees toward the grave. He hada shot gun with him. When he arrived within a few feet of the gri he arose and called out: “Throw up your bands or I'll ap ee “It is hardly necessary to say that the man did not throw up his hands, but like a streak of lightning disappeared in the darkness. THE GUN BURSTS, ‘The superintendent raised his gun and pulled the trigrer, but the cap was defective. He then tried the other barrel and it hung fire. A second time he tried it and then the weapon was disc! d with euch force that it burst, Fortunately Safford wis not injured. When the superintendent and O.%cer Fifield arrived at the grave they saw the body of Brooks lying on the ground near the grave, which had been filled in so —_. that the r-surrectionist had destroyed near! ny all the evidences of his visit, ‘The body was then placed in the vault, HIS CLOTHING LEFT BEHIND IN WIS FLIGHT. ‘The grave robber had taken off his overcoat and under coat and his hat, which he left near the grave. He also left two shovels and his hooks, which he used in raising the body from the grave. The clothing and implements were taken to the eighth precinct and the officers expect to have the clothing identified REINTERMENT OF THE BODY. This morning the grave was reopened and the coffin was found filled with earth. In the grave was found « portion of the grave clothes and the flowers that had been buried with the ‘The silver plate was stiil on the coffin, egg ey piece of the lid had been broken. ‘The body was again dressed and placed back in the grave. The body was buried in an isolated portion of the cemetery, and there is nothing to keep out the grave robbers except an ordi- post end rail fence. The officers expected that a wagon would come if their suspicions were correct, aud the failure of the vehicle to appear threw the cers off their guard. ‘lust ic probably the reason the man was not captared, om- To Keep the Streets and Alleys Clean.
