l.. safhinecr, living with her relating, Mr. Fcldt-
man, NJ No. 315 Hubbard street. The lady IS a
refugee from the yellow fever in Memphis, and,
having no immediate use for the fnery, Kept
it Locked in her tEnnk tn ~ her
household, woman named Henrietta Martini
was EN- ployed to do household work. This
woman is rather aged, and partially foolish, but
as she was destitute it was considered charity
to give her the preference for the place. When
the robbery was discovered one Of the
inmates OF the house Tecollected
that Henrietta was up at day
light and was proWling shout the house.. At
o'clock IN the morning she was sound asleep III
bed, and some trouble was had in waking her |
for the days work. She was the first suspected,
and Capt Hood, uDon hearing OF the theft, |
placed her under arrest. No report was made
OF the arrest, and no such oame appears upon the
book at the West Madison Street station In |
Tact, Capt. Hood has made himself dlsllked oF |
every one lor his conduct. None OF the teldt-
mans were allowed to see the woman. and the
police were not successful IN recovering any por-
lion OF the ]eWelry: Friday night Cant. lurt'e
