IMPORTANT ARREsT-Another villainous
piece Of robbery has been unearthed and the
guilty party arrested. On Monday night last
man named Mullery, while drinking heav.
lily and very much intoxicated, was Swallowed
IN saloon on * street by man who was
watching for victim, and new method to
rob him was resorted TO. He at first recog-
nized Mullery as an old friend, and the latter
was drunk enough to believe that it was all
right. The man then went to the Interna-
| tional Hotel and called for room for them,
and stated to the clerk that he had Just met
this old friend, and was glad to meet him
He registered as " Mullery and friend. !"
| They went to bed, and the next morning
when Mullery woke up his friend" had de-
parted, taking new fine overcoat, a
watch and all the money that he
found in the pockets of his roommate.
From the description given of the man by the
hotel clerk and the loon-keeper, Pat Hayes,
alias John Hayes, was arrested yesterday
morning about 3 o'clock by officers jackson
and Csfferty upon suspicion that he was the
party who committed the robbery. Yester-
day afternoon officer Lee found the overcoat
in clothing store on K street, between Fifth
Sixth, where it had been sold for So Lee
took the coat to the pelice headquarters. and
was accompanied by the clothier, who, going
to the Jail, at once identified Hayes as the man
who sold it to him. When confronted by
officer jackson about it, he admitted that he
committed the robbery, and also told where
he had sold the watch, which was in sec.
ond-hand store on Second street. Upon going
to the place the officers recovered the watch,
and afterwards obtained also small amount
of money, for which he had pawned
it. Officers Jackson and Coffey arrested
Hayes but a few days since upon
suspicion that he had burglarized the Brook
lyn Hotel, but failed TO get evidence to con-
meet him with it. As soon as Chief Karcher
saw Hayes yesterday he recognized him as
an old offender, and upon looking over the
police album found his photograph with
several other aliases. Also the record was
found that he was sent to San Quentin in
1869 from here for a term of five years for
the burglary of the house of H. Burnett,
and was again sent from Colusa county in
July, 1877, for another term of three years
for crime committed in that section.

by the party of nearly 200 ladies aud gentle
men. When they came to offer pay for their
meals it was refused, and an explanation be-
ing demanded by the excursionists, they
were informed that the conductors whose
trains run to this city and Ben Stein

ment with their compliments. Thereupor
they S held s.; Spontaneous ecu -, oonv s

alarm was given, but before reaching there
nearly everything was consumed. The build

all burned. The house and furniture were

Insurance Company, which will probably
cover all the loss.
