A REMARKABLE CASE.
A Bold clearinghouse Thief and
His VilIainies.
HE GRABBED THE CHANGE,
Detective Parker Arrested Him Saturday
His Plan Was to Rent Room and
Offer Payment In Advance and Seize
Women's Pocketbooks.

John Harrison, alias John Hares, was
arraigned in the Sixth District Court this
morning charged with larceny. Harrison
was arrested by Detective Parker late
Saturday night, who found his man in the
policy shop at AZ Washington street. He
accompanied the detective without re-
sistance, and was visited by many of his
victims, all OF whom identified him.
Last August, Harrison went to the
boarding honse kept by Almira Gilmore,
at 81 Chestnut street, and represented him
self as being Mexican from Arizona. He
stated that he was stopping at the Nara
gansett Hotel, but was badly disturbed
by the noises and desired to find a quieter
location. The woman, thrown oil her
guard by the plausible statements OF Har-
rison, showed him the rooms. one of which
seemed TO attract the mans taste. Pull
ing 500 bill from his pocket he insisted
on paying for the room a week in advance,
and Mrs Gilmore hastened to get the
change for the bill. On her return with
her pocketbook in her hand Harrison
made spring towards her, grabbing the
purse and pushing the lady TO one side as
he made good his escape. The pocket
book contained s34, and the loss was at
once reported to the police.
Two weeks ago Saturday night Harri-
son went TO the house, 52 Aborn street,
kept by Mrs. Anna Krimweide, and
grabbed S. from'her Previous TO his visit
to this house he had attempted to enter
the house kept by the woman's son, but
had been deferred by the sight of a man
on the premises. Among his other vic
tins were Mrs. Durfee, 263 Fountain
street, whom he scared into giving him
So, a Mrs. Hall, and Mrs. Waterman on
Friendship street, who gave up 81, and
Mrs. Quinn on Dexter street, who was
robbed of 50.
All these cases were worked in the same
way, the renting of a room being the base
of his operations. Detective Swan has
been busy in working up thc evidence and
last week accumulated sufficient TO arrest
the man. Detective Parker made the
arrest Saturday night. In the court this
morning Harrison pleaded not guilty and
was held until Tuesday for trial. Harrison
has n peculiar accent and the woman be-
lieving him TO be a Mexican reported him
to the police as such, so that the latter
were thrown of the track as they were not
looking for negro.
