A CONGLoMERATION OF CHARaEs.-On the
2eth Of last September, two boys-wm. Rosssthal,
who 10 about 10 years Of age, and g. T. Molin about
l4-were arrested m the charge OF burglariously
entering the store Of Josiah L. Bailey, . cigar
maker, and stealing tkcrefrom quantity OF cigars.
The CASE came up before Justice Rowland, but no
evidence to criminate the boys being produced,
they were dismissed. Young bIolin 10 employed
in tbs cigar store Of wm. ". Thompson, on Ninth
street, between Dstreet and PennsylvAniA avenue.
Mr.. Thompson fhrnished Bailey with the to-
baceo 10 make the cigars, and It was his impres-
sion that Bailey never lost the cigars, but kept
them himself, and charged the youug boys with
larceny. This belief was more vividly impressed
upon the mind OF Mr., Thompson when he found
that he had been robbed OF some money which was
In the mouoy drawer Of the store. when the rob
berry was committed the clerk happened to be out
and Baily was in the store. Bailey was therefore
arrested by detective James A. McDivitt, on the
suspicion Of the robbery. A warrant was also
issued for Dailey's arrest on account OF the false
imprisonment Of the boys. An investigation OF
the case was held this morning In the ONCE OF
Justice Rowland, and will b Continued tomorrow
morning, at 10 o'clock. .... II. s.' t'
