CAPTURE of A BURGLAR.
Thomas Burns Arrested In a saloon
Early This Morning.

About $3.50 this morning while Ser
geant Bannon was making his usual
rounds. he noticed a suspicious light in
the saloon of William O'Meara, on the
corner of Burnham and Simons streets,
and upon investigating discovered
man behind the bar searching for spoils
by the aid of matches. He had effected
an entrance by removing a large pane
of glass from the front of the building.
Stationing himself near the broken
window Sergeant Bannon whistled for
assistance and Officer Brickle promptly
| responded. Seeing that he was dis
covered the burglar crouched in cor
ner and hastily emptied from his pock-
cts three hundred pennies and a small
amount of silver, which he had appro-
priated. He made no attempt to escape
and surrendered to officer Brickle with.
out a struggle, after the proprietor OF
the saloon had been routed up and had
opened the door.
Neither of the officers were surprised
when they learned that the burglar was
Thomas Burns, for since his release
from states prison a year ago, where he
served five years sentence for burg
larry committed in Newtown, he has not
been living an exemplary life.
On the way to the station house
Burns began to show signs of intoxioa-
ton and had to be assisted by the Off
GERS. He was brought before Judge
Bradstreet this morning and made no
attempt at defense except a maudlin
harangue in which he said that he had
already served five years for a crime of
| which he was innocent. He wound up
by saying he was drunk when he en-
tered the saloon last night, and anyone
who said he was not lied. Officers
Bannon and Brickle testified that when
first arrested Burns was sober. Probable
cause was found to bind him over to the
superior court under bonds of $500.

made their appearance with appalling
regularity at the mouth of the shaft,

BIRMINGHAM, Ala, Feb. 2.-The riots
at Carbon Hill are still in progress, and
two companies of state troops have been
ordered to the scene by Governor Jones.
There was more bloodshed Sunday, but
it is impossible to learn its extent. Not
less than eight or ten negroes have been
killed, and possibly more. Anumber of
white men who were concerned in the
shooting have banded together and defy
arrest. The negroes, so far as can be
learned, have made no resistance, and
no white men are reported killed or in
jured. Eight hundred to 1, 200 miners
are employed at the Carbon Hill mines,
and only 125 of them are negroes.
Nearly all reports agree that negroes
have been shot down without provoca-
ton. Dispatches from Carbon Hill at
midnight say that the men who were
defying arrest have announced that they
will surrender to the sheriff.
