DEES FOR THIEVES.
Foul Dives Which Harbor Thugs and
Rowdies.
A Business Block Where Trade Has
Been Almost Rulned-Three Re-
cent Outrages.

The north side of X street, from Third
to Fourth, is becoming one Of the toughest
precincts in the city. There are several
dives OH that side of the block, which
harbor set of hobos and thugs who
in San Francisco.
So foul has it become that decent men
and women often go over to j street
rather than run the gantlet of drunken
bummers, blasphemers and other filthy
creatures that adorn the sidewalk in front
of the dens referred to.
The stranger who enters one OF these
thieves quarters does so at the risk of
being robbed and beaten, either in day
light or after dark. On Saturday night
three men strolled into a dive near Fourth
street. One of them was pretty drunk
and the other two were sober. They had
been there but short time when a fell
low, who was built like a prize fighter,
walked up to the drunken man, placed
one arm about him and with the other
dove down into his pockets and relieved
him of what little money he had.
The victims companions witnessed the
operation, but say they dared not inter
tere, as the place was filled with toughs
VINO WoulO nave assaulted IleIn had
they made move.
ROBBED IN AN ALLEY.
On the same evening two employees of
the railroad shops We're just leaving res
taurant, after having had supper, when
two men stepped up and told one Of them
he was under arrest, and that they were
policemen. The man allowed himself to
be led away, thinking that perhaps he
had been mistaken for some offender, but
his captors released him after they had
taken him block away.
In the meantime two other fellows cap
tured his companion, who was consider
ably under the influence of liquor. They
led him around into the alley, in the rear
OF one of the dives, and there robbed him
of $40. They evidently knew he had
some money, and the pretended arrest of
his companion was merely to get the lat
ter out of the way.
A CITIZEN ASSAULTED.
On Sunday night in front of the same
dive, a. q. Wilson, who is connected
with the Florence Mission, was assaulted
and Knocked down by couple of brutes
who emerged from the den lust as he
came along. They first stopped him, one
of them saying:
Say, you .plug-hat man, 1 want to
speak to your
Wilson declined the invitation for an
interview with such a hard-loo1ing spe-
cimen of humanity, whereupon he was
promptly knocked down.
And yet If the licenses held by the
keepers of these foul dives were TO expire
to-day, there would be no lack of sigma
lures TO their petitions tomorrow for
new licenses, and they would get them,

DOTIJE STONE
Her Father says She is Bad, and Very

Her Father Says She is Bad, and Very
Bad, and Has Always Been So.
The San Francisco Bulletin of last
evening says: when Dollie Stone was
arrested on a charge of vagrancy, she
told pitiful story of how she had been
induced to enter a house of ill-fame by
George Harvey, and that she was but IL
years of age. This morning her father
appeared in the Police Court, and if his
story is so the sooner she is locked up in
the. Branch County Jail the better it will
be for all concerned.
According to the evidence offered this
morning. the girl ran away from home
about year ago and came TO this city,
where she resided Tor time in one of the
notorious houses. Upon her return To
Sacramento she led younger sister
astray, and the actions of the two girls
drove their mother to suicide, she taking
dose of poison. Upon coming to this
city she wrote to the girl arrested under
the name of Lizzie Murray, and the two
were together when Officer Anthony took
them into custody. The latter girl lied
when she gave her name, as her true
name is Petrie. and her parents reside in
Washington, Yolo County. The younger.
sister OF the Stone girl ran away soon
after Dollie did and is now residing in
Dixon.
This morning another charge was
booked against Harvey. the last one be-
ing for placing female in a house used
Tor immoral purposes. Harvey denies
having done so with the Stone girl, and
says that she was in this city six weeks
before he came down from Sacramento
When he arrived here he went to work
with an electrician on Howard street, and
when he' met the girl here she was in
company with three business men from
Sacramento.
Regarding the Petrie girl, he states
that he never spoke to her until he met
her in this city. Harvey further denies
that he was arrested by Officer Anthony
in Sacramento, and shows letters and
newspaper clippings to the effect that
when he learned that warrant had been
ISSUED for his arrest he gave himself up to
Chief Of Police Drew in Sacramento,
