Detectives Hartigan and McNamee ar
rested William Wright and Herbert Boley
on charge of petty larceny this morning
Hecht & Company are the compiainants II

store, made an arrangement with Wright
to defraud the firm of clothing. Their plan
was for Boley TO have goods sent to
Wrights home and the latter would dispose
of them.
It is charged that the first work of the
accused men was done Saturday, when
Boley sent Wright three suits of boys
clothes. The package came too late for
Wright to sell the clothes Saturday night,
so he held them, 1t is alleged. until this

man was arrested. When he reached the
Detective Bureau Manager Kline, of
Hecht's, had just arrived to report the loss.

THE NEW STORM.

officials at the Weather Bureau See
No Cause for Fear.
Officials at the Weather Bureau were op-
timistic this morning in regard to the new
storm reported in the neighborhood of
Porto Rico.
Prof Hazen said this morning that
the advices from that locality do not yet
justify the gathering storm being dignifed
as Hurricane"
1t is still in it's embryonic state, and is
confined to the Caribbean Sea, 200 miles
southwest of San Domingo. 1t is said that
it may gather force and come northward,
but that there is absolutely no cause for
alarm at present. The diameter of the
storm has not yet been determined, but its
velocity is very slight.
