A sew Feature In Robbery.

SPECIAL TO II ~sEHTsEL.I
San Francisco, March 1.-THE fact has
just been learned to-day Of & bold and
peculiar robbery which took place on Mon
day last, and which has been placed in the
hands OF detectives for investigation. The
victim was Kate Ahler. the 15-yesr-old
daughter Of Wm. AhleT, u grocer on the
corner Of Sixth and Bryant streets. The
story related by Miss Ahler is that while
on an errand TO her fathers store. as she
was passing a house on Sixth near Bryant
streets, she was suddenly seized and pulled
into a doorway by a woman, who wore a
mask, and who, with the assistance Of a
female confederate. cut off her head of
heavy hair. The W women then ran
away, and the young lady was too fright
ened to follow them. No motive except a
desire to sell the hair thus obtained is
known for the deed. The practice of rob-
bling young girls Of their hair is stated to
be an entire new feature in this city, but a
very prevalent practice in the East.

ESPECIAL TO THE SENTINEL

SAN Francisco, March ia meeting of
reporters of all the San Francisco news
papers took place last night in Parlor A of
the Palace Hotel to devise ways and means
for the prosecution OF Sub-Treasurer
Brooks, who was arrested on Monday last
on the charge Of ~assaulting T. L. Burk, a
reporter, with a deadly weapon. After
organization the following resolution was
adopted:
Resolved, That the attempt Of an AS
sistant United States Treasurer in this
city to entrap and assault a reporter who
had expressed his opinion that the official
was no gentleman served to prove the cor.
rectness of the opinion, and was an act of
cowardice, deserving our utmost abhor-
renee.
A committee of five was then ap-
pointed to obtain counsel for the prose
cution OF the case, and q subscription was
taken up to pay the necessary expenses. 1t
is believed that Gen. W. H. L. Barnes will
be retained for the prosecution.
