Sarle, 3803 Clay street, had an exciting experience with a burglar about 10 o'clock on Friday night. Her father is out of the city and she and her sister are | the only occupants of the house. They visited a friend on Friday night, and when they returned home they left the front door slightly ajar till they had lighted the hall lamp. They went upstairs, and in a minute or so Miss Sarle's attention was attracted by a noise in the front ‘parlor, down- stairs. She proceeded to make an Inves- tigation. On opening the door of the front parlor she observed a man trying you doing there?” she asked, and the in- truder came from behind the portieres. Miss Sarle was standing in the doorway and the burglar ran toward her, shoving | her roughly aside and running out of the rear door. Miss Sarle had a police whistle and she blew it lustily, attracting the atten- tion of Policemen Johnson, Hicks and | Russell and Sergeant D. W. Boyd. They hurried to the scene and made a careful search of the premises, but could find no trace of the burglar. It was supposed that he had made his escape through a rear lot.. The burglar had no time to get any loot. He had evidently seen the part- ly open door and had slipped in unob- served while the girls were lighting the hall lamp. Miss Sarle was unable to give la description of him owing to the dark- ness. Robert Gallardo called at the residence |of A. de la Fuente, 745% Filbert street, on Thursday- under the guise of a coffee merchant. After he had left it was dis- | covered that a gold watch and chaln | were missing. Suspicion fell upon Gal- lardo and the police were notified. Yes- terday Gallardo called at the house dur- ing the absence of the family. He -ef- fected an entrance by means of a false key. John Grindlla, 741 Filbert street, ob- | served him and followed him into the house. Gallardo attempted to make an | explanation of his presence, but Grinella would not listen to him, and grabbing hold of him thrust him into a closet and | locked the door. Grinella telephoned to the Central police station, and Policeman Collins was sent in the patrol wagon to | place the prisoner under arrest. Gallardo was locked up in “the tanks” at the City Prison pending further developments. When searched a dlamond bracelet and | & ring were found in his pockets. | Abraham Altthayer reported to the po- lice yesterday that his cigar stand at Second and Mission streets had been en- | tered by a thief, who had evidently climbed over the iron fence. A quantity of cigars and chewing gum was stolen. | John McCall, 213 Natoma street, re- ported to the police that his room had | been entered during his absence on Fri- | day. His trunk had been broken open | and a $20 gold piece stolen. A. C. Regal, 5% O'Farrell street, re- ported that his room had been entered and his dress suit case, containing cloth- | ing of the value of $30, and $35 in coln were stolen. He suspects his room mate, | 3- A. Robb, who has disappeared. —_————— TWO BURGLARS ARE SENT TO FOLSOM PENITENTIARY Jerry Muleahy Will Serve Term of Tem Years and Franklin Plerce ‘Wingard Six Years. Sentence was passed by Judge Law- | lor yesterday upon two burglars, both | ex-convicts. Jerry Mulcahy was sen- tenced to serve ten years in Folsom penitentiary. He broke into the ba- kery of J. G. Gleichwelt, 2439 California | street, on the night of March 9 and | robbed the till. There was another | charge against him of attempted bur- glary for trying to break into a saloon in the same block, but it was dismissed on motion of the District Attorney. Franklin Pierce Wingard, who plead- | ed guilty, was sentenced to serve six | years in Folsom. He entered the room of Dora Lukov in the Cosmopolitan Hotel on March 14. When the Judge was passing sentence he remarked that | it would be light, because Chief Dinan | had told him that Wingard had been | of much use to him in his official duties. Wingard said: “Hold on, Judge, I won't stand for that. I have never been of any service to any policeman.” He was afraid that if it became known to his fellow convicts that he had been a “stool pigeon” for the police it would g0 hard with him in the penitentiary. —————— LITIGANTS FEAR FOR SAFETY OF DOCUMENTARY EVIDENCE Papers in Nevills Case Are Read Into | the Record to Prevent Thelr Taking Flight, The suspicion with which counsel in the suit of William A. Nevills and United States Senator John P. Jones against ‘William Flemming and others view each other was made manifest in Judge Mu- rasky's court yesterdey morning. The work of presenting papers and books for identification had not been concluded ’when the hour for adjournment arrived. ““Though I do not like to make the mo- tion,” said Attorney Shortridge, who rep- resents the plaintiffs, I would ask that the clerk be called upon to count and mark these documents not yet offered in order that when Monday comes we will know how many were here.” ““Well,” said Attorney McGee, who rep- resents the defendants, “‘there are seven- teen letters and twenty-four telegrams, and I think that in order to relieve op- posing counsel of the hardship of insist- ing on the motion he has just made we should read these into the record now.” The court agreed and the documents were read. The result is that if all the papers should take wing before Monday they will not be lost to either side that chooses to use them. —_———— Released and Rearrested. George Earl, charged with robbery, ‘was released on a writ of habeas cor- pus by Judge M. C. Dooling of San Benito County in Department 6 of the Superior Court yesterday on the ground that Daniel Sullivan, a co-defendant, had been released on a writ by Judge Cook on April 28 because the evidence was insufficient. As soon as Earl left the courtroom he was again arrested by Detective Bunner and booked at the City Prison on the same charge. Earl, Sullivan and Lorenzo Stefanini were eccused of holding up and robbing Eu- | genio Tiscornia on Vallejo street on | February 27. Stefanini's case will be called to-morrow to beé set for trial. —— 4 CAPTAIN MILBURN HELD.—Captain W. J.

The board took the matter under advise- ment until to-morrow at 3 o’clock, when the awards of contracts for all the supplies and stationery for the School Department will be made. Leaves of absence were granted to Miss E. McFarren and Miss Charlotte Clark. 3 J.
