In regard to the interview Of a police official

appears to me that the official is dull Of percep-

employ specials" to protect their property at
twenty -hVe or hfty cents per week. 1t is be-
cause the regular force do not discharge their
duty with the vigilance he would have Won

the laundering specials is that one OF their

Are not the regular officers often SO charged

"A Young COIored Man with q Mania
for Stealing.

Behind the bars of the third precinct police
station there is confined young man named
Frank Hall against whom there are several
charges OF theft. His alleged thefts were on a
small scale and realized altogether less than
go. The prisoner is not more than twenty
years old He had good home. got plenty to
eat and dressed well. The largest theft with
which he is charged was at the residence of
Capt. Joseph t. Dyer on I4th street near
Boundary. Hall it is alleged had been in the
habit OF loaing about the 14th street car
stable not far from Capt Dyer's residence.
While the Captains family was absent from
the city Hall visited the servant who was left
III charge OF the premises. He gave the woman
money 1t Is stated for two bottles OF beer and
while she was going to the store TO make the
purchase, Hall searched the pantry for some
thing to steal. He found some silverware and
before the servant returned with the beer he
had secreted soup ladle and several silver
spoons IN his pockets. When the Captain
returned home he discovered the loss
Detective Carter found the stolen silverware
IN pawnshop where So had been obtained
upon 1t. The arrest and confession of Hail
explained several other recent thefts. He had
also taken some harness from Capt. Dyer3s sta
BILE which he sold to the driver OF u l4th-street
car. In connection with this theft he impl-
Gated Capt. DyerS colored hired man Isaac
but the latter denied the accusation. The pris-
oner admitted that ne sold the harness. and
said he divided the money with Isaac but Isaac
made a complete denim when brought face to
face with the prisoner. In pursuing the in
vestlgatioa the officer learned that Hall had

sented to Isaac. Since last Tuesday Hall has

UNDER SENTENCE OF DEATH.
Two Prisoners I'm the District jail Who
Are to be Hanged Next January.

There are now two prisoners confined in the
District Jail under sentence of death. They
are Louis Williams, who killed ex-policemar
Alder near Bennings; and Benjamin Hawkins
who killed his wife in South Washington. Both
of the condemned men are colored.
THE MURDER OF ALDER
was committed ON Saturday night Louis
Williams had been drinking and for some mis-
behavior he was elected from q store by Aide,
and threatened to edo him up the first time
he got an opportunity. The night was dark
and when Alder started toward home he was
assaulted by Williams, who inflicted the fatal
wound. The trial resulted in conviction, and
January 81, 1890, was the date fixed for the exc
cution; Williams is peaceable prisoner and
gives the guards no trouble. He is Catholic
and the priest in his parish has been looking
after his spiritual welfare. Williams has re-
pented and hopes he will 20 to heaven il
hanged. There Is bare chance of his getting
a new trial
HAWKINS CRIME.
The crime for which Hawkins is under sen.
tence was shocking one. He had not lived
with his wife for some time. One night he
went to her house, in South Washington, but
she was not at home. Learning that she had
attended "Parlor Social with another man
he went to house on Virginia avenue, where
he found his wife enjoying herself. He waited
until the dance was over and then he sent for
her to come out. She did so, and together they
went TO a saloon where they had drinks To-
gether they started to return to the ''parlor
social" but before arriving at the house and
while passing through an alley near the house
he drew knife and plunged the blade into her
side. She fell to the cobble stones mortally
wounded. He was convicted of the crime and
was sentenced to death. The sentence was
to take effect the 30th of this month. but
upon motion for a new trial being made the
court suspended execution of sentence until
January 81 next
HE PROCESSES TO HAVE REPRINTED.
Hawkins like the other condemned man is
quiet and has but little to say. He has re-
Gently been visited by the Rev. Mr. Roberts
who has looked after the spiritual welfare
OF many condemned men. To his spiritual
adviser Hawkins said tina. the cares of the
world were nearly off his shoulders and he was
preparing for the world to come. He realizes
that he must face death before many months
have passed as be does not expect the courts to
interfere in his behalf.
HAWKINS told his spiritual adviser that he did
not know the date of his execution, whether il
was hxed for August or January, as he has not
seen his counsel for some time.
Mr.. Roberts says that Hawkins will meet his
fate without finching
