A QuIntstte Of San rrsncisco Captured After Q
Contest


SAN FRANCISCO. Feb. 25.-Locked
up In different cells in the city prison are
two men and three women, whom the
police believe to be responsible for a
number Of gurglaries committed south
of Market street. Their names are
William Warden, Charles Harper, Eliz-
abeth Keane, Matte Frawley and Rosie
Harper. They were arrested in room
ing house on Tehama street Wednesday
afternoon after desperate struggle.
During the past few weeks a number
of stores south Of Market street have
been entered and several hundred dol
lars worth Of property taken. After
considerable trouble, two detectives
learned that the headquarters of the
gang were at 24S Tehama street, and
they raided the place. They stationed
two policemen in the front of the house,
while they entered from the rear. While
they were searching the house Warden
and Harper attempted to escape by
jumping from an upper window. They
were captured and taken back to the
house.
AS the detectives and their prisoners
re-entered the house the officers were
attacked by the three women, and a
short but desperate fight ensued, which
resulted in the quintet being subdued.
