In one of the fires tn which the police allege the young men had a hand there was a child asleep in the house at the time. A Serlous Charge.

Detectives from the Central Office in Brooklyn; from the Fire Marshal's office and from the com- mand of Capt. Wohlfarth in Flushing were put on the case. From what they gathered they became convinced that the men who had set the fires wera young men in the village, and the arrests fol- lowed.

Newman, President of the 14 Hill Copper Mining Company, at % Broad street, told an amazing story of having been held up at Fittn avenue and ‘Thirty-sixth street last night by women footpads. The women, Mamie Doyle and Fannte Wilson, No. 228 West Thirty-eighth street, were prisoners jn court and were held. When making complaint against the women at the Tenderloin station last night Mr. Newman gave his name as Frederick W. Downs. It appears that Mr, Downs 1s Mr, Newman's private secretary, and when he read tn The World this morning that he had been robbed by women footpads he was in- expressibly shocked. Nor was hts peace of mind increased when he learned that in addition to the routine duties of his position his employer had added the Job of making him stand for a midnight adventure.
