Knox in the Latter’s Store |HE MAKES HIS ESCAPE _Discoveréd at Cash Register by the Proprietor, Who Gives Alarm and Pursues A lone robber made a desperate at-! | tempt Saturday night at 9:30 o'clock to hold up the grocery of Robinson & | Knox at 8§76 Valencia street. Disc¢ov- | ered in his attempt to rific the cash | register, he fired one shot at Andrew B. | Knox, one of the proprietors, and then, | becoming frightened at the outcries of | those in the store, ran out of the front | door and made his escape. He ran up | Nineteenth street to a narrow alley | called Cumberland street and then dis- | appeared down the dark thoroughfare. | Knox followed the robher as far as the | alley, but abandoned the pursuit there, | In telling of the incident Knox said: We were preparing to close up. | Knox, my son, and Frank Wait and Burg. two clerks, were in the rear of the | cleaning up, and I was sitting at the de: | the front, making up some accounts. Op) the desk, on the other side of the shop, is cash register, | looking up over the desk, discovere e 1 heard an unusual noise and, a., man | me_as revolver pomting a he told me that it I made a move, all right, by dropping b | the desk and, as I aid so, he discharge | weapon. As soon as 1 dropped I commenced | to cry out ‘Murder, thieves' and everything ! | else of an alarming’ nature I could think of. | | Between the noise of the shot and my outeries | | the robber evidently became frightened and ran out the front door. I followed him at a_dis- | | tance of about 100 feet, until he reached Cum- | { berland street. He disappeared down the alley | |and, as it was dark and extremely muddy, I thought it was useless to pursue farther. Wher. 1 first saw the robber he was trying ! to open the rigister with his. right hand and | held his revolver in his letf hand. He wore a white handkerchief bound over hig face below the eyes, concealing his features in such a | manner that it would be fmpossible for me to | identify him positively. He was about | | feet ten inches in beight and wore a dark s of clothes and a derby hat. The register § | one of ‘the latest patterns and requires that key be touched and a handle turned before the | | drawer can be opened. He was evidently un. | familiar with its workings, and to this is due | the fact that he secured no money. | | A few minutes after the occurrence | | several policemen were at the scene of | | the attempted robbery and made a| | search of the neighborhood, but failed | to find any one answering the descrip- |tion of the thief. An investigation | | failed to disclose the location of the | | bullet fired at Knox. Back of the desk | is a gallery, on which is stored a large | | supply of hams, bacon and soap. It is | | probable that the bullet imbedded | itself in these. | | Detectives = Fitzgerald and Graham | | are detailed on the case, but in view | of the inability of Knox to identify the robber, it is not probable that the | search will be successful. | e FINDS STRANGER IN ROOM. | John Sewelt Captures Intruder and | Holds Him Till Policemen Appear. John Sewelt, who occupies a room at 547 Howard street, was awakened | about 2 o'clock vesterday morning by | | & noise in his room. When he opened his eyes, he saw a man examining the | articles on top of his bureau. Sewelt Jumped out of bed and grabbed hold | jof the intruder, who made an unsuc- | | cessful attempt to break away from { him. Sewelt gave the alarm and one of | | the other roomers notified Policemen | | Connolly and Krueger, who hurried to Sewelt’s room. They placed Sewelt's prisoner under arrest and booked him | at the City Prison on a charge of bur- | glary. He gave the name of James | Rogers and his occupation as clerk. Sewelt claimed that $1 35 had been | taken from the pockets of his cloth- | ng and a comb was also missing. | When Rogers was searched the comb | was found in his pocket and identified | by Sewelt as his property. A bunch of skeleton keys was also found in | the prisoner’s pockets. a3 | | WINDOWS IN STORE BROKEN. Thieves Carry Away a Quantity of Goods That Were on Exhibition. { The thieves who make it a practice | 'Lo break the windows of stores on| ‘Kearny street and steal the goods on | exhibition were heard from again yes- terday morning. The store that suf- fered at this time was Selig’s men's furnishing goods establishment at 218 Kearny street. | About 6 o'clock yesterday morning | Policeman O’Connor noticed that two | | plate glass windows in the vestibule | | of the doorway had been broken and it was apparent that a selection had | been made of the goods in the win- dow. The proprietors were notified by Po- liceman Cavanaugh, who relieved O’Connor and, after examining the | goods that had been left in the win-| | dow, they reported that articles valued | at $80 had been stolen and the po- | lice were furnished with a detailed | list. It is supposed that the thief or thieves had used a crooked stick in drawing the articles toward the hole in the windows, SN e CLAIMS HE WAS ROBBED. Sailor Alleges Three Men Beat Him and Rifled His Pockets. Iver Grunbach, a Swedish sailor, re- ported to the police last night that he had been held up and robbed at the corner of Washington and San-! some streets. Grunbach alleges that he was held up by three men, who beat him cruelly on the head and then rlflded his pockets of $6, all that he had. Policeman J. Attridge found Grun- bach lying on the sidewalk at the cor- ner mentioned, bleeding from several ugly scalp wounds and cuts on the face. Grunbach told the patrolman that he was on his way to his scow, which lies at the seawall, when he was struck from behind and felled to the ground. Then, he says, three men went through his pockets and relieved him of his money. Grunbach’s face plainly showed the | effects of an encounter, it being cov- ered with contusions and cuts. The| policeman was unable to find any trace of his assailants. Detectives | were detailed on the case, &I R DOCTOR BEATEN AND ROBBED.

TINT INFANTS | ARE ABANDONED Two More Discarded Waifs | Are Found by Residents of the Mission District Two more deserted waifs were found in the Mission district yesterday morn- ing on doorsteps. Within the last week no less than four discarded children have been discovered in this section of | the city, and all within a radius of a| few blocks, and the finding of the un-| fortunate babes has become the general | topic of the residents of the section. The first waif to be discovered yes- terday was left on a doorstep at 1813 street and was found by, Charles McCarthy of 1831 Mission street | shortly before 2 o'clock yesterdnyi morning. The outcast was a boy, prob- | ably about three weeks old and appar- ently healthy and happy. It was care- fully wrapped in a costly quilt and placed in a teiescope basket. From the texture of the quilt it would appear that whoever discarded the infant was well to do. The child was taken to the Central Emergency Hospital and given in charge of the matron. It will be :;lmed over to some charitable institu- lon, The second outcast was found on the steps of the Third Congregational Church, on Mission street, by Edmund Clarence, the sexton, shortly after 10 o'clock. The infant, a girl baby, prob- baly had been left there early in the night, for when found she was shiver- | ing from the cold and all but famished. The walif appears to be but a few days old and is very frail and delicate. She | was wrapped in a few fragments of | feminine wearing apparel of cheap tex- ture.

B. Benham, president of the Labor | Council, was the first talker of the | evening. His name was the signal for | a round of applause and he was fre- | quently interupted during his talk by cheers. Benham told why the new league had been organized. He bitterly attacked the new ordinance and said it was in direct violation of the constitution. He warn- ed the members of the league to be on their guard and fight the new measure, for, he said, if they did not act with alarcity, their foes were likely to steal a march on them. Benham advised every workingman in San Francisco to join the newly or- ganized league, for, he said, it was to | thelr own interest and benefit to de- feat the proposed ordinance. He care- fully reviewed the bill, pointing out many of its alleged defects and showing why he thought it unconstitutional. | Benham was followed by W. Leonard, | a prominent labor leader of Cripple Creek, Colorado. Leonard was given an ovation when he appeared on the stage and his address was an interest- ing one. He told of the martial law in Colorado and showed how the working- men there had been treated. | _Among others who spoke were Rev. J. A. B. Wilson, George Estes, presi- | dent of the United Brotherhood of Rail- way Employes; C.
