Alfred J.

Windt immediately consented to make the | trial. He left Paris December 19, accom- panied by two companions, the Viscount de Clinchamp Bellegarde and George Harding, and the trio performed the re- markable feat of landing on_this con- | tinent, at Cape Prince of Wales, six months to the day after they had set out %) =20 e 7 ((( ( ] | ( i | DE WIinpT D | water and black bread.

Police’ Are Hurrying to the Scene, Bluecoats Get Glimpse of Thieves Disappearing GS ‘With Plunder. \ Crooks Force Tills and Cash Regis- ters, Break Open Telephone _ Boxes and Carry Of Goods. ol L PR, A pair of dexterous burglars looted three places of business in the Western Addition. early yesterday morning and made their escape with their plunder just as two valiant policemen, who had been notified that crime was being committed, arrived in sight aboard a milk wagon. All day the bluecoats and men from de- tective headquarters searched the city for | the lightning looters, but no trace of them could be found. It seemed as if they were as clever at disappearing as at plying their trade of thievery. Shortly after 4 o'clock a milkman em- ployed by thHe Great Western Dairy Company passed the Clover market at 201¢ Fillmore street and defected two burglars in the act of prying open the front door ef the market. As the milk ‘wagon, rattled by the thieves became | alarmed and withdrew to the darkness quality, pure silk and 1 the leading shades. ... season 1case NEW SATIN SOLEIL the latest Fall shades... of a doorway. ~The milkman drove around, the block and, whipping up his In width................ | horses,” hurrjed. to the ' O'Farrell-street | pelice station, where he informed: the ser- geant in charge of what he had seen. Two policemen on office duty were im- mediately detailed . on- the case and climbing’ to. the, 'seat of the milk wagon were driven rapidly’ to -the-scene. ‘When the policemen arrived within a | block of the market’they dismounted and approached the place on foot. The burg- lars_had just left, carrying with them lcot they had secured from three places they had entered. The men were seen running down Fillmore street, but pur- | suit ‘'was of no avail and they made thelr escape. The alarm was at once sent to police headquarters and descriptions of | the Toen as given by the milkman were sent to all the branch stations.

The two burglars must be experts, for they operated with great dispatch after the milkman saw them and did an almost incredible amount of looting work in the interim before the police arrived. After leaving 'the Clover market they broke open the front door of the Globe bakery, at 2021 Fillmore street, and robbed the | cash register and the telephone box. They | then went upstairs to a flat over the bak- | ery and tried to enter the apartment of { Josiah Smith. The door of the room did | not yield very easily and they took their departure, leaving only the marks of their “jimmies” to tell the tale of their visit. The crooks, not satisfied with all this, climbed over a number of fences and sheds in the rear of bulldings and gafned an entrance to the Pioneer saloon, at 2929 Fillmore street.- They forced open the cash register, the till, nickel-in-the-slot machines and the telephone box and | pocketed the contents.

CITY OF EUREKA SUES A TELEPHONE COMPANY ‘Wants Corporation Enjoined From Proceeding With Business Without Securing Official Permission. The city of Eureka filed a cross bill in equity in the United States Circuit Court yesterday praying that the Sunset Tele- pkone Company be enjoined from erecting poles and wires in the city of Eureka, Humboldt County, and from further op- | erating its business in that city without | permission of the City Council and in de- | flance of the city ordinances, The com- plaint prays also that the company be obliged to make a statement as to the riumber of its subscribers, its gross re- celpts and expenses and the amount of intrastate and interstate business, if any, | is transacted-by it..
