Detective ], L. Hawkins has for
some time past been engaged in in-
yestigating the charge against Amos
Tucker OF being one of the three rob-
bers who entered the residence OF
Robert Smith, No. 1908 Rodney street,
on Saturday evening, August LIST, to
commit. burglary. Tucker was ar
rested in Philadelphia for robbery
committed since the Smith burglary,
and the authorities declined for some
time to give him up to be brought to
Delaware.
Through the influence, however, of
Attorney General John Blggs, the
Philadelphia authorities consented to
let Delaware have him first. As the
city detectives cannot serve requisi-
lions, State detective Witsil will go to
Dover this evening for the necessary
papers to bring Tucker to the State.
Detective Hawkins, who worked tho
case up, will probably go with detec-
tive Witsil for Tucker, who will proba-
bly, be tried the present term Of court.
