CONSIDERED AS CONSIDERABLY ArrENu-
A1ED.-Ueually the words would be ''too
thin" Is spoken by policemen. Captain
Malone, chief Of detectives, was yesterday
gravely informed that Frank Muniot, col
lector for Messrs. Lochte & COrdes, gro
GERS, No. 46 Tchoupitoulas street, was pro-
ceeding to make deposit in bank for his
Employer, and when on Gravier street, in
the broad glare of day, he was knocked
down and robbed of $l665 in currency and
$23SI in checks. The collector gave very
precise description of his assailant, alto
eeaher too fine story for man who had
suddenly and unexpectedly been assaulted
and robbed; to say the least, the descrip-
ton was uncommonly close in detail. The
detective, as detectives usually are, was
suspicious, and would not believe the state
ments made by Muniot. The case will
probably be unraveled to-day.

CONCERSING THE MECHANICS INSTITUTE
AFFA1R.-The general topic of conversation
yesterday in every portion of the city was
the trouble at Mechanics Institute, We'd
resdsy night. All the newspapers were
carefully perused by all kinds of readers.
who had heard various versions of the
affair. Notwithstanding reporters had con-
siderable difficulty id obtaining details. the
accounts in the main were quite correct,
and leave but little to add. The only ad-
ditioraI arrest made yesterday was that Of
Court Officer George Duhurst. employed in
the Fourth Municipal Police Court, who is
charged as accessory before and after the
fact to the killing of Lucien Adams, Jr.
The affidavit was made at the instigation OF
the Superintendent of Police, mainly to
hold the prisoner until Coroner Chastant
shall have held an inquest.
Row AMONG CAB Wednes-
day night, Charles Traville and Gottfried
Jacobs, employed by the Orleans Street
Car Company, got their blood up above
fever heat, and fell together like regular
bruisers. Before the fight was ended, Ira
vile managed to draw . common clasp
knife, the blade of which he showed into
mis- opponents breast and groin, inficting
wounds that may prove fatal. The quarrel,
which took place at the station, near the
Fair Grounds, grew ont Of misunderstand-
ing concerning their duties. When persons
who witnessed the fight saw that Travllle
was using knife, they interfered, but al
lowed Trayille to escape. However, ne
was subsequently arrested.
