ARREST OF CHARLES DowsE, THE SUPPOSED
MuRDERER.-On the morning of the 4th June,
a Hollander named Peter Becker, who kept
an underground drinking saloon and dance
house on jackson street, between Kearny
| and Dupont, was found murdered. The body
was discovered by O woman who had her
suspicion aroused uy observing the disordered
state of the apartment which was usually Oc
cupied by Becker, and blood stains on the
bedding and floor, which were traced to a
passway under the sidewalk, where the light
through the chnks in the planking revealed
the mutilated body of the murdered man.
The murder was accomplished with the aid
of large hatchet, and the entire skull of
the victim was literally broken to pieces. 1t
was known that Becker had a considerable
sum of money about him. and it was evident
that he had been murdered for the sake OF
plunder. Suspicion fell upon two Germans,
one Of whom, Charles Dawse, was in the
habit of sleeping in the same room with the
deceased. and the supposition of their guilt
was confirmed by their sudden disappearance.
The police made every effort to discover the
whereabouts OF the murderers, but 10 no pur-
pose. 1t appears that Dowse mode his way
to Santa Clara county, and obtained employ
ment ut q ranch near San Jose. He might
have remained on the ranch in security, but
his love for dance house entertainments pre-
vailed over his caution, and he started to re-
turn to this city, but was recognized at Al.
varado, Alameda county, through the instru-
mentality of a phi tograph of his daguerreo-
type, which the Chief Of the Police caused to
be posted in every town throughout the
State. lie was brought to this city yester-
day in custody of officer Lowell, of Alameda.
The identity of DOwse is beyond question -
