Pickpocket Arrested by Worcester Po-

Pickpocket Arrested by Worcester Po-
lice Recognized as New York
Crook.
In the capture Of the pickpocket who
gave his name as Joseph Corbin, the
Worcester police have got hold Of a
man who has evidently been at the
business for some time. Corbin was
arrested at the corner of Main and
Front streets Nov. q. 1899, by officers
Daniel F. Sullivan and Henry B. MI
gent, for picking the pocket of Miss
Jane C. Holman, in the five and ten
cent store on Front street. He was tried
at the session of the central district
court the following morning, and was
bound over to the superior court for
trial at the January term.
At the time of his arrest, letters were
found on his person which showed that
a meeting had been arranged at the
Bay State House in Worcester with
a notorious pickpocket known as Alt
Clegg, and this led the Worcester Pc
lice to believe that Corbin was an old
timer at the business. Photographs
of him were taken and sent to the po-
lice in different cities.
Inspector w. j. f. Stone has received
photographs from the New York police
of the same man. He was arrested by
the police of that city Sept. 6, 1898, on
the Maine Steamship company's boat
Horatio Hay, for picking pockets, but
as no one appeared against him he
was discharged. He gave his name in
New York as Harry A. Phillips.
Mrs. Holman's pocketbook was found
in the lining of his overcoat when he
was brought into station l in this city,
by Inspector Stone, and the police are
satisfied that they can convict him
of the crime. The pocketbook con-
tanned only $160.

voted TO hold another rally in Labor
headquarters this evening" The speak
ers will include the clubs candidates,
and j. P F. Frey, NJ. F. Garrett and
William Dunn. So much time was con-
sumed yesterday in the transaction of
business and in the tilt with Mr.. Blake,
that several speakers had no oppor-
tunity of expressing their opinions, and
tonight's rally will grant that opportu-
nifty.
The following resolution on the stick
err question was adopted Whereas,
certain parties, for reasons best known
to themselves, are advising the voters
to use stickers on the ballots election
day, and
Whereas, the city solicitor has rem
dered decision that the use of such
ballots is Illegal, and
Whereas, no good results can come
from using such stickers as it will
be the means of such ballots being
thrown out, therefore be it
Resolved, that we request all our
friends to let such stickers severely
alone, as we believe there is some other
object in view than the welfare of the
eight-hour movement"

Scotch hero, he says:
Come one, come all, this rock shall fly
From it's firm base as soon as T."
And back of all this it must be re-
membered that William G. Lichtenfels
