The police OF this city. Brook n. and Phila-
delphia were notified yesterday by Inspector
Mclaughlin to send boarding house keepers
and others In their bailiwicks who had been
robbed OF wearing apparel or household effects
within the past two months to Police Head
quarters. as they might find something there
that would lead to the recovery OF the lost
property. The Inspector has at Head quarters
big rile OF stolen articles. besides eighty two
pawn tickets. all Of which came into his keep
ing through tho arrest on Jan. 30 OF young
man who says he Is William A. Crane. The
prisoner is believed to be one OF the cleverett
and most successful boarding house thieves in
the country.
On Jan. - . young man called at the house
OF Mrs. AuGnkalk. POS East Thirty second
street, and asked II she had any furnished
rooms for rent. He looked at several and
finally decided to take q hall bedroom The
latch key for the front door. and he vent away.
Those in the house heard him come back dur

Detectives Holland and Heap working OH tho
case. as he was convinced that Crane was the
thief who had heen committing numerous rob-
berries in boarding houses fat,, and furnished
rooms in different parts OF the city. The de-
tsctives finally discovered that the man room
was In I'll First street. There they found one
OF the largest assortments Of odds and ends
that has ever been brought to Police Head-
quarters. With ths goods were found the
elghty-two pawn tickets, ten otwhich are from

were of superior quality. About sixty keys
were found. which the prisoner had evidently
collected from the various houses he had lived
in and robbed.
Crane will be tried in the Court OF General
Sessions on Tuesday. and by that time the
police hope to have the ownership OF most OF
the stolen articles established.
