A Peculiar Case.

A rather novel robbery was Investigated
in the Police Court to-day. Miss Mary
Cober was charged with. the larceny of
$157 from Mrs. Jane Boyd. Both the women
are servants employed by General Abra-
ham Baird at his residence, No. 1409 X
street northwest. Some days ago Miss
Cober alarmed the inmates of the house by
a report that her trunk in the upper floor
of the house had been broken open by
thieves and robbed of gold watch. Mrs.
Boyd then examined her trunk and found
that it also had been opened and $157
stolen from it. Detectives Raft and Block
were notified, and after some investigation
began to look with some suspicion upon
Miss Cober.
The suspicious were heightened by find
ing Miss Cober's watch which she had re-
ported as stolen, at n place where she had
taken it, Miss Cober continued to deny
all knowledge of the robbery, and the fam
lily in which she was employed are firmly
convinced of her innocence. The evidence
submitted to-day made out prima facie
case and the young lady was put under
bonds in the sum of $500 to await the ac-
tion of the grand jury. General Baird was
accepted as bondsman.
