that they have heen stealing harness.
Three sets of. harness have already been
recovered, and theHofficers are at work on
the case endeavorlngI TO discover more of
the stolen property. zHps
During the posfe six weeks, 1t is said,
about fifteen stabks have been robbed, and
the pelice concluded there was gang of
harness. thieves at work, end although
many reports of thefts of harness were
received, the police found it a difficult mat
ter to apprehend g the thieves. Severa:
times the officers found stolen property,
some CT 1t over in Virginia, and 1t had
been sold by colored men. At the time the
harness in Virginia was recovered the Of
ff6ers had an idea that the thieves did not
belong here, and had committed rev
thefts while passing through the city, bu,
subsequent events changed this belief, and
the officers in the various precincts as we'll
as the detectives were interested.
1t fell to the lot of Policeman James
Robert Quiet, the alleged leader of the
gang. Robert has already served two
terms in the penitentiary. the police say.
and his arrest is considered one of more
than the usual Importance He was ap-
pretended early Sunday morning on Penn

on his back at the tine A few minutes
before he was arrested he passed another
officer, and in his effort to ward on sus-
picion he made the remark:
BE - If L amt tired of this job, get
ting up so early in the morning.
He die not make the statement in vain,
for this officer did not suppose man fear
ing arrest would be bold enough to make
such ar assertion, and he paid no attention
to him.
Policeman Mulvey overhauled him, how
ever, with the, result stated. 1t was learn
ed that two men had been with him just
previous to the time of his arrest, and
when the case was Investigated by the
detectives they were told that these men
were William Stanton ard Felix Hunter.
They were captured yesterday afternoon
by Lieut.. Hohinberger's officers in Sou.h

event as often as possible.
1t is confidently expected that the largest
crowd of the season owill assemble in the
immense amphitheater tomorrow evening.
In order to properly and without delay
transport all who may want to go and
come, the sew raj lines of railroads have
arranged for cXtraGt train service. The tick
cts of admission to the amphitheater have
attached two coupons. one good for rail-
road fare from the District line to Glen
Echo and the other for transportation
from Glen Echo to the District line. This
means saving of 10 cents in car fare.
Those who will appear in the entertain
ment. in addition TO the drill team of the
Morton Cadets, are: Messrs. Harlan and
Wilkinson, the nerrie moaarchs OF the
Glen; Messrs. Howard and Leigh, the local
