A MONKEY-LlKE BURGLAR
Agility Of a Thief Who Entered
John E. Lucketfs House.
He Dropped From the Top of One
House TO q Smaller One aud
Escaped.

A bold attempt at burglary was made
about 1890 O'Clock last evening at the
residence of Mr.. John E. Luckett, clerk
No. los X street northwest.
The only members OF the family at home
at tho time were Mrs. Luckett and her
daughter. Sitting la the parlor, awaiting
the return Of Mr.. Luckett and the two sons.
their attention was attracted To the floor
above, the second, by the scratching Of a
match. This frightened them as they
knew that there should be NO one ON that
floor.
Mrs. Lrckett was very nervous and was
afr9id To investigate by herself. However,
after thelapse OF half an hour, her youngest
son returned, and with him the mother
proceeded to investigate. Their approach
however, was hot made so stealthily
but that the intending burglar succeeded in
effecting his escape in good time. He went
out of a side window and crossed the roof
of No. 103 X street, and, hanging like a
monkey, dropped TO the roof OF a little
frame barber shop on the corner OF First
and X street northwest, and climbed TO the
EtDuHu OH a was sun 10 Dt
seen standing against the house at neon
today.
He entered the house he had intend ed to
rob by the same route by which he had
made good his escape.
A swift pursuit, of course, would have
caught this burglar In a trap, but the
LBcketts Were only too happy that the
man got away.
The burglar was in the house for three
quarters OF an hour but. as far as is known,
nothing was disturbed by him. tits thought
that he could not escape at once owing to
the fact that a number of persons were
passing while he was in the house COM
pelling him to await his chance 1t was
believed today by some of the neighbors
that the burglar was Carr, the assailant Of
Rosa Robinson

BOY KILLED ON A TRESTLE
EIzemore Jordan, Colored, Run
Over Near Fort Runyon.
A Train Coming on Each Track Be-
wilde red Him, and He Was Killed
Before His Brothers Eyes.

| Elzemore Jordan, colored, twelve years
| southwest, was killed before his brothers
| eyes on the Fort Runyon trcstle, mile
beyond the Long Bridge, by Seaboard
| Air Line train at 1920 this afternoon.
The train was stopped on the
| trestle within few feet of the accident,
but the boy was already dead, and In
| five minutes it pulled out and steamed into
Washington. The coroner was notified at
Rosslyn by Track Master II. j. Mills.
Eizemore jordan and his brother, the
latter two years older, went over into
Virginia early this morning blackberryinG-
They took six quart pals with them aud
by half past eleven O'Clock had filled
them two miles beyond the Fort Runyon
trestle.
They started back along the track, and
when they reached the trstle Elzemore
persisted in walking on the track against
his brothers wishes. Finally the elder
brother got ON the treStle with him. They
soon saw that trains Were coming from
both directions, and were almost too fright
ened to know what to do.
The older boyfinally iumpedtc the ground
ten feet away, but the other was either
afraid OF the jump or too overcome with
fright to move. He made an Intellectual
attempt, aud was on the outer side when
train f0c struck him.
His leg was severed at the knee, and he
was struck In the body somewhere. His
brother was only a few feet awav, but
could do nothing to help the unfortunate
boy.
People on both sides of the trestle ran
to the spot, and there was soon u crowd
gathered around the boy bod y, which was
partly In the stagnant water under the
trestle. 1t was pulled out few feet and
covered with piece OF bagging to await
the coroner.
The brother would not leave the scene
but hung about moaning and with the tears
streaming down his face.
The name OF the engineer of the train
which killed the boy is Davis, and that
OF the conductor Newman. No blame is at
tached To them, as there is a sharp curve
just on the ether side OF the scene of the
accident. and the trestle cannot be seen
until train is almost uponit. There is q
good walk on the side ofthe stiealso, and
no reason for walking ON the track.

CARR NOT YET arrested


the case. 1t 10 true that the officers on
that beat have q large territory to cover
and much to contend with, but IL is as
serted that this does not excuse their neg
lect in not reporting the case until they
went off duty at IL O'Clock. Sax hours after
the assault had been committed
Even then, however, the matter should
have been reported to the detective bu-
rcau i'm order that capable and expe-
rienced men might have been sent out
upon the trail of the ravisher- Instead.
however, but a meager report vas sent out
with the usual request to look out for
Carr, ard even then there was but u
partial description given Of tue man.
Again, instead of asking for aid from In
spector Hotlinherger's men, Detective
Barnes, who has never figured la any inn
portant cases, was assigned to the case
from the Second precinct. He had done
absolutely nothing TO run down the man
when the news OF the assault reached In-
spector Holiinberger, and, without wait
ing to be consulted or requested, immedi-
ateiy detailed Detective George Boyd 70
investigate the case.
when this official, who is regarded "a
one OF the best on the force, started out,
then twenty hours after the offense had
been committed, he found that almost moth
ing had been done either toward hvesti-
eating the circumstances and suroun dings
or toward running down Carr. He immes
diately ordered thorough search to DC
made OF Cars house, and directed that
oil persons presumed to know anything
of Cars whereabouts. his person al friends,
be arrested On suspicion and locked up.
It was not until after this that the first
arrest was made.
Even the sergeant on duty that night
did not report the matter at the station and
Detective Barnes when asked regarding
the assault yesterday afternoon ALSO
lutely denied that such a thing had taken
place and disclaimed all knowledge of the
case. though he was supposed to be work
ing upon 1t at the time.
