scions of prominent families. for burglary
and robbery. The young men say the whole
affair was joke, but 1t happens to have

were given nights lodging by j. Dubinsky

They were awakened by terrible racket
this morning in the Russians room, and
going in saw one of the young bloods hold
ing the Russians down and the others going
through their pockets. They had broken
open door and the lock to enter the room.
One of the Russians claimed the young fel-

tempt was made to hush the matter up, but
the foreigners had warrants sworn out for
burglary. The young men are badly scared,
and will try to show that they were just
having a good time.
