Up in the City Prison for Robbing a Room in a Lodging-House. e Mattie Frawley, who the police say is one of the cleverest female thieves in the country, was arrested last night by De- tectives Ryan and O’'Dea and locked up in the California Police Station. To-day she will be formally charged with grand larceny. About a week ago the prisoner, accom- panied by another woman who has not vet been apprehended, visited a lodging house at 225 Grant avenue and, it is al- leged, stole a valuable seal skin sacque belonging to one of the inmates. The | sacque was disposed of in a Third street | pawn shop for a few dollars. The Frawley woman has on more than one occasion been accused of theft. Some time ago she was arrcsted together with two men for committing wholesale rob- berles south of Market street. The men were sent to the penitentiary, but as the woman, who {s quite young, promised to reform, she was committed to the County Jail for a short term. It is more than likely, that several charges will be placed against her to-day.

A Coroner’s jury decided yesterday that Maurice McHenry, the aged expressman who was killed by being run over by the San Jose train at the crossing of Sixth and Townsend streets last Wednesday, died through his own negligence. The verdict was: “That Maurice Mc- Henry, aged 62, expressman, residence 46 West Mission street, came to his death at the crossing of Sixth and Townsend streets on June 20 through shock due to the crushing of the face and skull, said shock hav ni been caused by being thrown from his wagon while in collision with a passenger train; and we further find that it was through a failure to heed the warnings given by the flagman at the point of crossing.” brome (LR Sl Opportunity for California.
