Harry J. Biddell was held in $500 bail
for the county court this morning to
answer the charge of burglary. From
the evidence produced IL appears that
the detectives have Gagged one OF the pro
fessional burglars who committed so many
robberies during the mayorsltY nomins-
tion contest, when the police were too
busy with politics to attend TO the in
terests of the citizens On the morning of
April 10, Officer William 81. Updyke
surprised three young man In the act of
pilfeIiug McClintock's store at the
corner Of Eighth and Lombard streets
Two were inside the building, while the
third, George johnson, kept watch at
the door. On the approach of the officer
Johnson signaled those inside and both
Immediately sprsng from the window.
1t was only few minutes before sun
rise and the officer was but forty feet
distant, SO that he had very good Oh
portunitv of noting their appearance
The robbers decamped and Upjyke fired
his revolver, the bullet striking one of
them in the arm. Though wounded and
bleeding theifugitive succeeded in escaping
and was traced by the dripping blood as
far as Kirkwood park, where it was found
that he had taken off an inside shirt, cut
but the left sleeve and bound up his
right arm The bloody shirt was left be-
hind, and in the right sleeve was found
a bullet wound just above the elbow.
The shirt has remained at the police
station since that day.
johnson. who had been acting as senti-
mel at McClintock store while his pals
we're committing the robbery, was run
down and captured in a water closet at
the time. He was tried at the May term
of the Criminal Court and convicted of
larceny. Branch H. Giles who defended
him, raised legal question. which saved
johnson from being convicted for
burglary. The indictment charged him
with breaking into the store in the
night time, but Mr.. Giles showed that it
was daylight at the time Johnson was
sentenced to twelve months imprison-
msnt
When Biddell was arrested with Will
liam II. Crowley the other evening by
Detectives Hawkins and Hatton, he and
his companion had on rubber shoes. They
also had in their possession a quantity of
burglar tools Riddelps body was ex-
amined by Detective Hatton at the
police station and on his right arm Just
above the elbow was found fresh scar
made, apparently, by a bullet. The
marks Of bullet wounds were also dis
covered on both lege, which served to
indicate that he had been ia similar ex-
ploits before

Riddell this morning as the man on

sidered strong and Judge Ball deter
mined to hold him When Biddell was
leaving the court room he turned round
twice and muttered threatehingly
toward City Solicitor Curtis, but what
he said was uniutellig' BILE.

LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE.
The Warmers Explain.
o the Editor Of The EyEN1No JounNA,

To the Editor Of the EVENING JOURNAL.
SIR: My attention has been
called to q portion Of your article IN yes
terday's issue regarding the financial
troubles OF the Kennebec Ice and Coal
Company, which l feel 1t my duty to
correct
You state "The Warmers tried TO bny
them out some time ago but the Kenne-
bee people refused to SELL" As any in
ference that could possibly be made from
this would be incorrect, | desire TO say
that the Kennebec company has. on
| four different occasions, made voluntary
offers to dispose Of thsir les business 70
us, on one of which after repeated i'm
portuniDg on their part, we did make
them a coulter offer that we were
confident they would not accept and we
should have regretted it very much IL
they had accepted IT, With this excep-
ton we hsve steadfastly declined to pur
chase their Offering and the latest de
elination has been within the past two
weeks l must also express my regret at
tho dispositi N imputed both in the
Every Evening and EVENING JOURNAL of
yesterday to Fl. G. Robinson TO sell
p some other company than ours in order
that we may have competition in both
ice and coal, and thereby that monopoly
might be prevented As our company are
strong advocates of low prices in all
goods we handle, | eau confidently as
sure the citizens OF Wilmington that
they run no risk of high prices II both
the natural ice companies should
cease to operate.
In conclusion, desire to express the
sympathy | sincerely feel for the Kenne-
bee Company 10 their present troubles,
and also the regret that there should be
any necessity for winding up it's affairs.
A. D. WARNER.
Wilmington, Del July II, 1891.
In justice to Mr.. Robinson, it is but
fsir 70 say that the statement attributed
to him that "the Warmers tried to
buy them out some time ago. but the
Kennebec people refused te sell, was
neither part nor parcel Of the reporters
interview with him. II simply became
part Of his statement when the printer
