SERIOUS CHARGES
Young Men Accused of Robbery but the
Warrant Unsigned.

Mysterious hints, finally eliminating in a
very grave accusation against three we'll
known young men of the city. were afloat yes
terday. The young men implicated are Jay
McNamara, Daniel L. Bell and another named
Grovenor. AS the story goes these
parties were engaged in playing a
game of pool with stranger in the city
named W. F. Stone, late Thursday evening,
all more or less under the influence of liquor.
The young men, it is said, played Stone for
sucker, in which they were helped by some
outsiders. In due course of time Stone, ex-
cited by drink, was encouraged to offer wager
on his skill at the game. To make his wager
be produced a roll of bills, when disturbance
was raised, during which Stones money, said
to amount to about $l75, was snatched from
his hand.
OF course all present denied any knowledge
of who did the robbery, and Stone himself
was too confused to make any intelligent ef-
fort that night to recover his money
or fix the guilt upon any one. Yesterday
the police, but declined to make formal
charges, against any one, his only purpoee
being to recover his money with as little
publicity as possible. But if that was his
purpose, the parties implicated de-
clned to scare. meeting his charges
with positive denials, and showing not the
least disposition to compromise and hush up
the matter, Finally, shortly before O'Clock
last evening Stone had copy of complaint
prepared, in which the yonng men named are
charged with the robbery as above, but the
document was was not legalized by the requi-
site oath, and whether it is to be, or that this
is mere bluff game on his part to scare the
implicated parties into a compromise settle
ment, remains to be seen. Certain it is that
his hesitating course yesterday would indicate
that he was rather uncertain in his own mind,
to say the least, of the circumstances under
which he lost his money.
