About II o'clock Saturday night
Sumner G. Blake,a gtationer on Mont
gomery street, was proceeding home
ward up ihe California street hill
when he was suddenly arrested by an
admonition in this formula, "Your
money or your life,n the words being
accompanied by the presentation of
the muzzle of pistol in close prox-
unity TO his nose. The gentle
man responded by quickly handing
over u small amount OF coin he had
upon his person, and the rObber as
sisted him in divesting himself of his
watch and chain. This ceremony hav-
ing transpired, Mr.. Blake was directed
to continue his course straightway up
the hill, turning neither TO the right
nor to the left, while the robber turned
and fled in the opposite direction. In
stead Of following instructions, how
ever, Mr.. Blake followed the thief, in
the meantime shouting Justify for the
"police." The alarm was successful
in attracting the attention of an oi1i-
Ger, who coliared the fugitive before
he had proceeded hundred yards. He
attempted to rid himself of the pistol
aud also of the watch taken from Mr..
Blake, but was unsuccessful and all
the evidence of his guilt was fastened
upon him. The prisoner was brought
before the Police Court this forenoon
for examination, and his appearance
answered that of the convent ional
highwayman. He was not recognized
by the police as belonging to the
brotherhood of old resident thieves,
and is supposed to he one of the horde
of criminals that has collected in the
city during the past few weeks from
the East. The weapon found in pos
session of tue ruffian was revolver of
the largest pattern eXtant. He was
committed for trial, with bail fixed at
$4,000.
