POLICE TNTEIIJEE NrF

Yesterday morning man named John Mott.
anas John Martin, was arrested by Captain Lynch,
OF the Eastern district, and officers Eberstine and
Horney, charged with robbing John d. Krantz of
between three and four hundred dollars From the
statement of krantz it seems that the accused and
his VIII wife boarded with him at Laurel Factory, and
on Sunday afternoon last had entered room where
the money was deposited and, in the presence of his
wife, stole the above sum from drawer. Mott
then left the premises and went to Washington
city, where he hired horse and buggy from Abra-
ham F. kimmel, a livery stable keeper on street,
between AZ and 9th streets. He, at the same
time, secured the services of driver and set
out for this city, which he reached YESTERDAY "
morning at about O'Clock, and came to Miller's
Hotel, corner of Paca and German streets, where
he left the driver with the horse and buggy, and
proceeded to a house near the corner of Caroline
street and Eastern avenue. In the meantime
hrantz had also come to the city and gave informa
ton at the Western district station house of the
robbery, and Mott had been in the city but short
time when he was arrested upon a warrant issued
oy Justice Logan, before whom he was taken and
committed for further hearing. When arrested
the prisoner had on his person about S2O6. The
horse and buggy were both recovered.
