\ colofed man named Sidney Williams
was arrested i'll New Orleans last week
at the instance of Jos. j. Lacreix, for
mcrly an employee of the CHIEF office,
charged with the crime of stealing jew
elry from Il lady passenger on the steam
CT John A. Scuddcr about two months
ago. The robbery was committed ut a
point near PlaIucmillr, while the Scud-
der was on her way to New Orleans.
Williams entered the iady's statcroom
through tr:lns0m and made bis exit
with her iewelry, consisting of a heavy
gold neck chain with Maltese cross at
tachcd, a pair Of handsome chain brace
lets with pearl setting, a pair Of gold
pendant earrings, a pair Of cameo sleeve
buttons and Il locket containing a girls
portrait. The thief left the boat at or
near this place and sought shelter i'll a
cotfee-honse OH Railroad Avenue, where
lie found Lacroix, Of whom he made a
contidante, recountins the full particulars
of the robbery. Through the instrument
ality Of Lacroix, the editor Of the CHIEF
shortly afterwards obtained possession
Of all the stolen .jewclry excepting the
locket,, by purchasing it from parties to
whom the robber had sold it at nominal
prices. The articles recovered were sent
by express to st. Louis, where the lady
owning them resides. Lacroix has been
:" laying" for the robber for several
weeks, and we expected to record his
capture III Donaldsonyille some time
since, but although he has been here on
two or three occasions since the commits
sion Of the crime, no fas orable appor
tunity for his apprehension was offered
until last week, when he was nabbed in
New Orleans az above stated.
