side at No. 507 North uvenue, Inst evening al
10: 80 O'Clock fell from window III the second
story Of the Parker House, alighting upon the
sidewalk OH Halsted street. Dr. Adams, w!c
attended him, says his jaw is broken. as is also
the left leg ut the thig but that the injuries arc
not dangerous.
Toward o'clock yesterday afternoon Detect
i've james Morgan spotted a horsc-thicf riding
about town iu $500 rig recently stolen from
Thomas W. Withcrcl, Of No. Park Row. He
give chase and followed his man over Adams
street bridge, south on Halsted, and west OH
Twelfth street. At tho corner Of Newhcrry
avenue and Twelfth street Morgan's buggy
broke down By running foul of the strcet-ear
track, but at this point Officer Dan, of the
West Twelfth Street Station, clcverly took up
the pursuit, ind captured his man il vacant
lot near the corner Of Twelfth and johnson
streets. At the station he gave the name Of j.
W. Anderson. aud was at once recognized by
Morgan as the fellow who recently stole horse
and buggy from David Saulpaugh, of No. IS
Halstcd Street. Ultimately the prisoner owned
that be was guilty Of both thefts, and tlat he
had put the buggy in repair shop ut No. 53s
Halste1 street.
At about $3.50 yesterday afternoon; Officer
Patrick Douehcrty, OF the West Lake squad, on
uuEF IL Lie E3A5E euN u W. 411LAOIpu SLAE[%%
noticed a suspicious young colorcd man buzzing
about from one pawnshop to another. He fol-
lowed him, aud saw hin try to dispose Of a
watch in a shop near Clinton street, whereupon
lie swooped down upon him and bore
him stationwnrds. Upon searching him
two other watches besides the one he was
paxning were found upon his person, and were
identified rs belonging to D. Frohlnanp, pawn
broker doing business at No. $50 State street,
whose place was burglarizcd Of about $500 worth
of pledges upon the morning OF the 18th nlt-
After dcul of coercion, the colorcd chap owned
up, AMI said he had gotten the goods from an
other man, who, IN the light OF present develop
,ncnts, he said, must be the thief. He threw
up both hands and begged for mercy,
claiming to be respectable hardworking
waiter in the fremont House, and WAS not
guilty Of the burglary. Thomas Pine was de-
tailed to aid Dougherty IN working up the case.
und by night seventeen watches and jewclry,
valued at about four-ifths OF the entire loss,
had been recovered, some from pawnshops, and
some from the residence of Young Ives on the
second floor OF No. IS Harrison street.
at this iatter place 4 woman claim
ing the prisoner, Charles Ives, for
her husband WIS also arrested. Frohmann IS
greatly tckicl over the recovery, for, as the
goosls were nearly all pledges, and valued by the
owncrs much more highly than the amount
loaned on them, he would have been loser to
the extent OF about three times the amount
named.
