EXCITING CHASE
 AFTER A THIEF
Pocketbook Snatcher Run Down
 by Civilians.
HANDED IN CITY PRISON
Young White Boy Giving His Name as
 Walter Whitfield Boldly Relieved
 Mrs. J. Rudel of Her Purse -4s - ~ in Seventh Avenue .~..

Walter Whitfield, a white boy 1T years is a prisoner at police headquarters with the charge of highway robbery docketed against him, and stands fair chance of spending a term in the coal mines About 4;9O o'clock yesterday afternoon he snatched a poeketbook from Mrs. J. Gudel in front of her residence, No. 1924 Seventh avenue, and attempted to escape, but was captured after a long chase by two young men who were in the vicinity and held until the police arrived Mrs. Gudel was returning home from a shopping tour down town, and had almost
 reached the front gate to her residence when Whitfield, who is a tall, gawky lad,
 rushed up behind her and grabbed her
 pocketbook, which she held in her hand.
 She struggled with the thief for a mo-
 ment. during which time she made vigorous
 use of her parasoI, which she broke to pieces over his head, but the boy succeeded in wrenchlng the book from her hand and started up Seventh avenue towards
 Eighteenth street In the meantime Mrs
 Gudels screams attracted the attention of
 passers-by and Frank Stewart, a well
 known young man, who was on his wheel,
 gave chase, and was soon joined by Meyer Strauss, of Montgomery, who chanced to be
 passing
 Whitfield cleared several fences in his flight, finally turning into Eighth avenue, closely followed by his pursuers. Seeing that he was about to be captured, he clear ed the back fence of a residence between Eighteenth and Nineteenth street and att tempted to hide himself beneath the house, but was taken in charge by his pursuers,
 who by this time had been joined by oth- CTS.
 A telephone message was sent to police headquarters. and the police patrol, with Chief Austin, Constable Gardner and two reporters aboard, was soon on the way to
 Eighth avenue and Nineteenth, where the prisoner was being held. X Chief Austin searched the boy and found the pocketbook and one of Mrs. Gudel' 8 \ gloves In his pocket The book was torn in the scuffie, and contained $1.72 and sev-
 eral trinkets.
 F The affair caused great excitement in the neighborhood, and a large crowd assembled
 to see the prisoner safely placed in the
 'Black Maria"
 At police headquarters Whitfield readily
 admitted his guilt, and said that he had
 snatched the book because of hard times.
 Several accounts belonging to Reese, the
 druggist, whose store at the corner of
 Sixth avenue and Sixteen street has recent
 iy been robbed of small articles, was found
 in the boys possession. - Whatfield will be tried before Judge Fea-
 gin at 3 o'clock this afternoon. Mrs. GudeI
 thinks that the thief followed her from
 down town.
