MAN WHO ROBBED ALAMEDA.

San Francisco, Aug. l5.-The
true colors Of Augustus Howard,
the "Australian Plunger," the
man of mystery, have been flung
to the breeze by the police. He
stands revealed as an escaped
Australian convict; as one of the
greatest criminals of the century.
Three warrants for his arrest are
in the hands of the local author
tiles, sworn to by w. +. Green,
the Denver millionaire, charging
him with the embezzlement OF
sums sggregating $26o,Ol 0.
Howard, or Doyle, bis real
name, and as he will hereafter be
known, has not been seen since
Thursday last.
Chief Lees and Green not only
brand him as a swindler, but as {
would-be murderer, with the Den
YER man as the intended victim
Doyle is believed to be the hesc
and plotter of the gang who mys
teriously robbed the specie room
OF the Pacific liner Alameda o.
5000 sovereigns in May last dur
ing a voyage between Sydney, N
8. W., and this port. Suspected
of this crime he has been under
surveillance since that time, bu
no attempt was made to appre
bend him, the police being advis
ed of the coming of two member
of the clique, and it was thei
hope to gather them all in a
once.
