WAS IT A THIEVES DEN?
Proceeds of Robbery Found in a Raided
HoboAen House.

Proceeds of Robbery Found in a Raided
Hoboaen House.
Detective Sergeant Rathien and Police
man Nelson of the Hoboken police made
a discovery this morning when they
searched the apartments of the house No.
SS Madison street. In last nights issue OF
THE NEWS the story of the raid made on
the house and the capture OF several
young women was told. The rooms
which the young women had occupied
were apparently empty, but upon closer
investigation the police found enough to
Justify them in the belief that the place
asthe headquarters Of gang OF young
thieves.
They found one lap robe and whip
aud several horse blankets. These were
the proceeds of robbery committed in
February, and DR.. Adams of Congress
street, Jersey City Heights. was the vic
tim. They also found secreted in the
corner of one of the rooms complete
BURGLARS outfit.
With this evidence the policemen hur-
ried TO the station house, and Chief
Donovan aud Captain Hayes were con-
suited. The police agreed that the young
woman who had been released on the
payment of a fine, and who gave ner
name as Taylor, was living with profess
sional thief, and efforts were made to re-
capture her and her male companion,
IL is doubtful II the pollce WoulQ nave
succeeded in capturing any one had not a
young woman, who it is said was Jealous
of the Taylor woman. "squealed" on the
whereabouts of the gang.
Rathjen and Nelson went to the place
directed by this young woman and found
the Taylor woman. She was in the COM
pany Of two very shrewd looking young
men. All three were brought to the
station house. AS soon as Chief Dono-
vans eyes lit on one of the young men he
recognized him as professional New YORK
thief This fellow gave his name as
Thomas O'Neil, twenty-five years old, and
his address as No. "a Bloomfield street.
The other fellow said he was Stephen
Hayes, twenty-one years old, OF the same
address.
The impudence of the young woman
was astounding. She stated positively
that her name was Emma Hayes and de-
MED that she had given the name OF Tay-
lor when arrested yesterday. She was led
back TO a cell crying bitterly.
1t is the opinion of the police that the
young woman has been living with
professional thief. but as yet they have
not been able to find out who he is.
O'Nelll and Hayes are held on general
principles The police expect to prove
Something against them. AT noon Police
man Nelson arrested another woman

Newman and the s'Ring" Exercised Over
the Petition Exposures.
The excitement in Bayonne last night
over the exposures in THE JERSEY CITY
News of the forged signatures to the
Newman petition was intense, and espe-
cially so to the "ring." They used every
endeavor to find out whose names were
placed to the petition without their
knowledge, but up to last night had not
succeeded.
''If they do find them," one gentleman
Significantly remarked last night, 'syou
bet they will make them remember they
signed it."
Be this as it may, two reliable witnes ses
are on hand to whom one of the men
whose name is attached to the petition
positively stated he did not sign it.
The Newman gang yesterday filed the
citizens petition, and also claimed the
Republican endorse ment. The Farr sup
porters have entered a protest, and this
evening Clerk Hamilton will give decis-
ion in the matter.
The Democratic City Committee held a
meeting last night, and the utmoet har-
mony prevailed. Reports from the sew

cess, Chairman Malloy. OF the City Com
mittee, informed me that the fight would
be pushed forward aud no rest taken till

five nuisances had been. complained OF
forty-eight of which had been abated.
