Monday morning he detailed two of his

The rOgues gallery album was searched
and the pictures OF one of the men was
found. 1t was then learned that the two
men werein the city. They were rooIning
in boarding house on Twelfth street
northeast, not far from Maryland avenue,
and within few blocks Of the houses that
were robbed. The house is thoroughly
respectable and the police refuse to give
the name OF the person who keeps 1t.

was made OF their rooms, but none of the
stolen property was recovered fIom there.
Detective Horne went to northeast Wash

vestigation of the case, and he and the
police worked all day. The prisoners

| they are the men wanted

| Detectives Horne and Weldon arrested

| About that time, however, Clark refused

HE NAY APPOINT ANOTHER.
1t Is Stated That The Preside 1T
VIII Withdraw Davis Name.

Mr.. Henry Z. Davis is still suspended in
md-air. Unless the Senate Committee ON
judiciary calls a special meeting dusin Z
the week, his nomination cannot be consll-
eIod before the regular meeting next Mol
day, nor can the committee OF three to IN
vestigatc the charges against him be- ap
pointed before that time.
The Senatorial opposition to Mr Davis
confirmation appears TO be- growing strong
er every day. 1t was. stated asst night y
a Senator that Mr.. Villas reason for ask
ing that Mr.. Davis nomination he reCum-
mtted was to enable the President to with
draw his name before it goes back TO the
Senate, and thus save Mr.. Davis the hu-
initiation of a rejection outright by the
Senate.
The court in general term held brief Ses-
sion yeSlerday morning Chief Justice Bing
ham presiding. There Were present Justices
Cox, HaEner, McComaS and Cole. No
action was taken regarding the 8pptint-
ment of q temporary district attorney, but
the matter was informally discussed, with
the result that il will be delayed until the
President takes action on the bill passed
yesterday by the House.
Chief Justice Bingham stated to The
Times representative after the meeting
that as the bill would need the signature
of the President, and then go back tc
Congress, it was likely action would be
taken today.

HAD A FONDNESS FOR RINGS
Fifteen -Year-Old Bessie Stacey Be-
lieved to Be a Shoplifter.
1t Is Said That She Attempted to
Steal JeweIry From Harris u
Shafer--A Mysterious Case.

Bessie Stacey, very pretty little girl,
fifteen years Of age, and still in short
skirts, was arrested yesterday afternoon
by Detective Joe" MattiDgly of the
police station. The charge opposite her
maine is suspicion, and upon this the child
was held last night. Considerable mys-
terry surrounds her case, and the deepest
secrecy is preserved by those who are in
a position to know as to what crime the
girl Committed.
tits alleged, however, that Bessie entered
the jewelry store OF Harris Shafer, No.
lib Pennsylvania avenue, about O'Clock
yesterday afternoon and asked to see some
rings, and large tray was brought out
and shown to her. IL is stated that she
thereupon attempted 10 steal several Of
them and some other Jewelry while the
clerk was attending 10 another customer
While none OF the clerks, or either of the
proprietorS of the store, could be induced
TO say anything in reference to the case,
and refused to answer all questions con-
corning it, 1t is said that Bessie made an
unsuccessful attempt TO get away with a
large haul.
She remained in the store while con-
sutation was held between the propre-
tors, and Mr.. Harvey Givens, of the Dis
tricJ Attorneys office, was consulted in
reference to the matter. Finally IT was
decided to send for an officer and have
the girl placed under arrest Detective
MattiDgly went to the store and the child
was turned over TO him and taken to No.
i precinct station. She did not seem CON
cerned regarding the affair, but would
make no statement i'll her own behalf. She
gave her age as fourteen and told the Off
Ger that she was a servant, but 1t is not
known where she lives or for whom she
works.
The child was well dressed, and very
attractive in appearance. Is there is no
Inatron at No. / station, she was later
removed to No. 6, and locked up III one of
the witness rooms, and could not be seen
last night. Mr.. Given has the case IN
charge, and If it is deemed that the evil
dence against the girl is sufficient her
case Will probably be brought up in police
court today.

SAVED BY HIS DOG.
An Animal Prevented Less of Life
at n Takoma Park Fire.


Fire destroyed the residence of Mr.. j u.
Gibbs at Takoma Park at an early hour
vest erday morning, and but Ior the presence
of Mr.. Gibbs faithful Watchdog in the
house two lives would doubtless have been
lost. The house and its entire contents
were totally destroyed by the blaze, the
loss being estimated al about $4,000, OF
which something like one-half is covered by
insurance.
The place was erected last fall and was
situated IN the shady retreat near the
famous Takoma Springs. 1t was opened
late in the season by Mr. Gibbs, who is also
proprietor of Cycle Cottage, some distance
beyond Takoma. and fitted up with all CON
venienccs for wheelmen, and better known
as Cycle Clubhouse The lower floor of the
house was used as a restaurant, and the
remainder occupied as dwelling.
Mr Gibbs was alone in the house Mon
day night with the except on of a young
man WHO is employed about the place
When they retired al out l O'Clock every
thing was III ploEcr orderT. Shortly after
8 O'Clock yesterday morning Mr.. Gibbs,
WI O was asleep in one of the ICONS on the
sec ond floor OF the house, was awakened
by his pet dog clawing and barking In a
frightened manner at his bedside. The
animal had been the first to detect the
olor of smoke, and had sounded the
alarm none too soon. BY the time he had
succeeded in arolSing his master the
entire house was a mass OF flames. and
in a few moments more both inmates
would have been suffocated.
Mr. Gibbs and the young man made
hasty let and succeeded in escaping
from the burning house, but not until he
| he had seen that the faithful canine
which had saved lis life had also gotten
out. None of the furniture or any of the
| z ontents of the house We're saved, the
proprietor losing even his money and gold
| watch, which lie did Lot have an oppor-
| tunitv to take with him as he fled.
The origin of the blaze IS mystery,
| but it is hardly suspected that It was the
| work of an inccndiary. The probable
| correct theory is that the fire started in
| the lower portion of the house from some
defect in the heating apparatus. Nothing
iemains Of the structure now except the
| tail chimney.
