The Rich BoY.-Concerning the lad Will
lie Keen, arrested here by officer Brissell, on
suspicion of having come unlawfuly into
possession of the large sum OF money de-
scribed in yesterdays RECORD UNION, no
new facts have developed as to his identity,
or the truth of his story. Detective Dan
Coffey, of San Francisco. arrived last evening
for the purpose of taking the boy to San
Francisco. Detective Brissell says he
does not propose to surrender the lad
or the money on such demand. He also
says that no additional facts with
regard to how the boy got possession of the
money have been given him. There appears
to be no foundation for the statement made
last evening that Nelson, the drawee of the
checks found on the boy, lost them from his
pocket while asleep in car. although that is
a possible explanation. The officer who eff.
t5c.ed the arrest Is inclined to think that the
request of the San Francisco police to turn
the lad over to them without some process of
law, is, to put it mi,dly. cool. especially when
SO large a gum Of money is involved, FIR
which, as yet, no owner has made demand.
and as there is undoubtedly reward to be
paid.
REPUBLICAN MEETGNG.-M. NJ. Este, Re-
publican nominee for Governor, and w. w.
Morrow, candidate for Congressman at large,

rsmento on the political Issues of the day at

also take part in the procession. This pro-
cession Will form with It's right resting on
Sixth and L streets, after which it will march

MIsNFoRMED.- say the least, San
Francisco paper has been ,nisinformed in
regard to the capture of the boys who burg
lariz ID the store Of Will & Finck in that
city. It states that they were arrested by
Detectives Jones and Coffey and Detective
Fuller, Of oakland, one of the boys being
captured in OAKLAND and tina other on Jessie
street in San Francisco. This truth is that
they we're arrested in this city by Chief
KarcAer, assisted by Detective Fuller, of
Oakland. A great deal of the property had
Leen recovered before the arrival of the o .k-
land off GER. Further, Detective Fuller was
not aware that burglary had been commit
ted ut the store of VIII & Finck until after
his arrival in Sacramento, he having come
here in search of one of the boys because he
was accused of another crime.
