THE Ross CASE. During the early part of
last week the people of New York and Phila-
delpha were greatly excited over an occnr-
renee which promised to throw light on the
abduction of Charlie Ross. The following are
the facts as cleaned from the New York
press On Monday morning, the 14th, an at
tempt was made by burglars to rob the house
of Judge Van Brnnt, at Bay Ridge, Long Is
land While they were in the house, which
was unoccupied at the time the building was
approached by brother of Judge Van Brunt,
with his son and others. When the robbers
attempted to get out of the house they dis
covered that they were likely to be caught
and desperate fight ensued. One of the
burglars WIS killed outright and the other
whose name was Douglas, was wounded so
badly that he died in about two hours. just
previous to his death he remarked to gentle
man at his side, "It's no use lying now,
helped to steal Charlie Ross He then went
on TO state that his fellow burglar, Mosher,
and himself were the two men in the carriage
when the boy was taken away, and that
BIosher knew whore Charlie was. On being
told that Mosher was dead he said, Inspec-
tor Walling knows and the boy will get home
all right No further statements could be
elected as Douglas was suffering great pain
aud almost dying. 1t appears that these men
have been known for long time by the de-
tectives and police as bold and desperate
thieves, and since July last Superintendent
Unlf;,,,S ~ Na,r yvnrl> had than, ~
with special reference to the Ross case.
From information in tho possession Of the
detectives, in addition to the dying statement
of Douglas, it seems tolerably certain that
these were really the parties who stole Charlie
Ross. Considerable excitement was aroused
in Philadelphia on receipt of the news of the
shooting of the burglars, and several wit
nesses and detectives Immediately went to
New York to identify the bodies. Among
these was Walter Ross brother of the missing
Charlie, and both Of The bodies OF the dead
robbers were positively identified by him. 4
party was organized on Tuesday TO search for
the lost boy, in pursuance of information IN
the possession Of New York detective who
had visited BAY Ridge to identify the bodies.
The search developed nothing of importance
TO the case beyond clearing one or two sus-
pected parties. On Wednesday the Coroner's
inquest was held on the bodies Of Mosier and
Douglas, but no paper or writing was dis
covered which would throw light on the
mystery. The detectives are still hard at
work, and are said to be very confident Of
ultimate success, although nothing of a
positive character has been developed since
the day of shooting.
just previous to the affair at Bay Ridge, a
telegram was received from Chester, Illinois,
stating that party hsd been detained there,
and that child very closely corresponding TO
the description of Charley Ross was with
them. A member Of the Ross family inn
mediately started for Chester and found
child most closely resembling Charlie but
after one or two interviews he was Obliged to
again disappoint the hopes which had been
raised.
