MORE CHICAGO SUTFERERs.-Mosto of the
stranger thieves arrested lately claim that
they are Chicago sutierers-why, is hard to
tell. Yesterday man and woman, the latter
somewhat stylish in appearance, entered
Mr.. +. A. Tylers jewelry store, pretending
that they wished to purchase a gold chain.
While examining the articles. the man sue
ceeded in slipping four or tive chains into
his coat sleeve, but Ne was not SO sly that
one of the clerks, Mr.. j. NJ. Martin, de-
tected him. The moment he was discoy-
cred, he made an attempt to escape, but Mr..
Thomas Boylan was too near, and grabbed
him. Going to police headquarters. he told
Superintendent Badger his name is James
Brown born in Poland. The woman claims
to be his wife, although she is of English
birth. The missing chains We're not found
on the fellow, when it became necessary to
search the woman. A proper person from
a neiShboring boarding house was induced
to perform the task, but before she had
completed the work "a messenger arrived
from the store, saving the chains had been
found where Brown had thrown them. Mrs
Brown was permitted to leave, but the man
was locked up, and will to-day appear before
Recorder Houghton. The attempt was a
bold one, but the trick is quite worn out in
New Orleans.

An ATTORNEY IN TROUBLE. w. l..
Thompson, young man who was adj
mitted to the bar a year or two ago. was
arrested and locked up in the third precinct
Thursday night, on the charge of obtaining
money under false pretenses from William
Morris. The prisoner failed to obtain his
release on bonds. but Yesterday sued ont
a writ Of habeas corpus in Judge Dlbbles
court. The commitment made out by Re
corder Macarthur proved to be quite cor
rect. but the prisoner felt impelled TO do
little talking in his own behalf, and as the
court saw no prospect of a cessation. closed
him out by remanding him to jail. The
bond demanded was only one hundred and
fifty dollars: the sum said to have been
fraudulently obtained WAS one hundred
dollars.
