THEY CAME FROM CHICAGO.
TWO cRAcKsMEN FROM THE WINDY
CITY TRY THEIR HAND HERE.

They Got Their Pluuder All Right But
Are Landed In the Coils After Giving
the Omcers Chase.
Last night the secondhand store of
Peter Torkel, No 204 West Front street,
was operated on by burglars, who effected
an entrance through a window, which
they carefully blocked up after breaking
open. A lot of clothing, several watches
and chains. half dozen revolvers and a
lot of other truck, valued at about $685.
was taken.
The case was reported to Chief Dolan,
who notified his men to keep a sharp
lookout for the perpetrators. On making
a tour through the oosst, the chief
learned that two coiored lads had been
trying 30 dispose of the articles stolen,
and had sold at several OF the second
hand shops, articles which were readily
Unidentified by Torkel
Shortly before 10 o'clock this morning
Sergeant Bailey and officers Davidson
and Kelleher while looking for the
burglars In the West Yard, saw two
young colored men who we're acting sus-
piciously. When the officers approached
them, the pair took to their heels and laid
out straight course for the
marshes Both Davidson and Kellebsi
pride themselves on their speed and
staying qualities, but it was not until
the chase had reached nearly TO the
bone boiling establishment, that the
runners were overtaken
They were landed in the police station,
where they gave their names as James
Smith and Frank Reed and their homes az
Chicago On Reed we're found two re-
volvers, two silver watches, some silver
coin, two or three watch chains and other
trinkets On Smith were revolver
watch and other OF the stolen articles
Both the prisoners wore clothes evidently
stolen.
They did not deny the burglary but
claimed that others who were concerneC
left ou freight train early this morn
ing. The police say that the Job give
evidence that the thieves were no

/ acted foolishly in their attempt
to get rid Of the goods The capture 4
a very oreditable one for the officer
concerned, and goes far to substantial

The Great RdilrOdd Strike.


The great railroad strike still
continues in force generally
throughout the west. Ninety-six
railroads centering in Chicago are
tied up, and the Great Northern is
the only transcontinental, road
now running. California is blocka-
ded and not a train has left the
State since June 27.
There has been rioting at various
points. Fourteen men were killed
by volley from the State militia
in riot at the Chicago stock yards
last Friday, and man was killed
by deputy Z. S. marshals at Spo-
kane. The rioting is confined
solely to the destruction of rail-
road property. The rioters burned
thousand freight cars at Chicago
Sunday. The President of the
United States has declared Chicago
under martial law and General
Nelson Miles is in charge of the
troops at that point. Seventy thou
sand employees are engaged in the
strike at Chicago alone. Gen.
Miles will stand no nonsense and
his presence will have a quieting
effect on the strikers. The freight
and passenger blockade is likely
to continue indefinitely, but the
U. S. mail trains will hereafter
come through all right, if it takes
every soldier in the Federal army
to guard and move the trains.
