MARGARET DOE CAPTURED.
The silver Set Belonging 10 Peter
sen Also Recovered.


The police were informed last night of
the arrest yesterday in New York City.
of Margaret Osborne. alias Doe. aged
twenty-six years, who is wanted In this
city on a charge of grand larceny. The
woman is said 70 have robbed Charles
Petersen. travelling salesman. Of $50
In cash and a silver toilet set. worth
about $50. while the couple were registered
several days ago at an Avenue hotel
Detective Baur will go to New York this
morning and bring the prisoner here.
According to his own story. Petersen
came 10 Washington late Tuesday after
noon from New York. accompanied by
two strange women. who he says he met
at the Hoffman House. New York, early
the SAME day. Petersen states that he
paid the railroad fare of the women here,
and that he registered with Margaret
Osborne, also known as Doe. at the local
hotel as man and wife. The other woman
also spent the night at the hotel. and
occupied an adjoining room to that OF
Petersen and his companion.
Early Wednesday morning the woman
whose identity is yet unknown hurried
ly left the hotel, and returned 10 New
York. leaving Petersen and the Osborne
woman. After the woman's departure,
Petersen claims to have fallen asleep, and
says he did not awaken until after 10
o'clock. Then he discovered two things.
that his companion had also disappeared
and that he had been robbed. He lost
no time in going to Headquarters. and re-
ported the case to Captain Boardman and
others on duty. A description of the two
women was sent to various cities and
Petersen shortly returned to New York

woman came tidings that Peterson's SILL

the Athletics, under the chaperonage of
Con McGillicuddy, would have jumped the
town with four games to their credit AS
il was, Mercer was in great shape for
work and pushed all sorts of shoots and
curves and Blenders over the plate in such
lightning like rapidity that the visiting
ball-tossers Were in a comatose condition
during the period that ne appeared in the
box.
1t was a really refreshing sight to see a
Washington team take a commanding
lead at the post and keep it until under
the wire. 1t was somewhat novel ex-
perience and when the crowd had fully
realized that here ct last was game
chalkeG I'D to the credit of our fellows
they broke forth in the widest sort of
enthusiasm and gave Mercer a royal re-
ception. The popular pitcher gracefully
Acknowledged the cheering and cries
to the effect that he was the real thing
and the similar CUFF that a ball crowd
hands out to its favorites, but as he
walked over to the clubhouse at the con-
clusion of the first game, he could not
help but thinking OF what the reception
would have been had he lost the game.
Mercer phiiosophically sizes up the base
ball business ike this: You're a hero
today and dub tomorrow" Well, Mer-
Ger ought to know, if experience counts
for aught: but he was NEST assuredly a
hero YESTERDAY.
The game landed by the followers of the
Manning banner was well-pleyed con-
test. The only trouble with the visitors
was that MERGERS box work was too
much for their heaviest hitters. Winnie
has a real cute way of propelling the
sphere up to the home plate and causing
II to take an elusive course when 1t gets
to within a few feet of the batter. He
used a change of pace and relied very
little upon curves. although he would
vary the monotony of his performance
every once in a while by firing in fast
in-shoot just for the fun of watching
some Philadelphia man side step the ball
and puncture the beautiful outdoors.
La joie was the only Athletic batsman who
had any great amount of sport with Ier-
GERS delivery. The colonel slammed the

Damages of $4,000 Asked for Per-

Suit was filed in the Supreme Court OF
the District yesterday by Catherine G.
Roache, minor, through Catherine E.
Roache. against the Metropolitan Rail-
road Company to recover s2oeo0 claimed
as damag es for personal injuries alleged
to have been sustained by the minor.
1t is alleged by the plaintiff that
on July Is last she was passen-
ger aboard one of the cars of the
defendant. going north on Fourteenth
Street. When near II Street, it is
alleged that part of the machinery of the
car got beyond the control of the motor
man and as result sparks and flames
came into the car at the front window
near which she was sitting.
The motorman, 1t is declared deserted
his post and left the car. leaving the pas
sengers. including the plaintiff, in great
peril. Because of her fear, Miss Roache
states. she attempted to leave the car
and in so doing was thrown with great
violence to the asphalt pavement As
the result of her fall she was seriously
and permanently injured.
Miss Roache states that she was hurt
about her back. spine. and stomach She
is represented by Richard p. Evans as
counsel.

NOT EASY TO ARREST cHoNa.
A Laundryman Plies an Iron Poker
Against POliccmnn's Head.


All was excitement near Ninth and II
Streets northwest last night when 70
liceman Murphy undertook to arrest lee
Chong, Chinese laundryman. in his
shop. Chong objected strenuously, and
he used an iron poker on the head OF the
policeman with telling effect So unruly
did the Celestial become that Murphy used
his club and struck the Chinaman over
the head. infiicting an ugly scalp wound.
Then Chong went to the Emergency Hos
pital In the First precinct patrol wagon.
After his wounds were dressed the China
man was locked up, charged with assault
on the policems n.
The trouble came about shortly before 3
o'clock. when Murphy was told that
Chong had enticed several young girls
into the rear room of his laundry at I27
Ninth Street northwest. Murphy went to
the laundry and sought out the China
man. who claimed that the girls had
called for their laundry. 1t appears that
Chong answered questions with bad grace.
and when Murphy started to enter the
laundry to investigate for himself the
Chinaman grabbed an iron poker and
struck the policeman a blow on the head.
Murphy then brought his club into play
and fellsd the Chinaman. after brief
struggle. Meanwhile the girls disappeared
from the rear of the laundry and their
identity was not learned by the police.
The yells OF the Chinaman were heard
for blocks. and quite crowd gathered
about the place. Somebody spread re-
port that man had been killed. and
Murphy and the Chinaman were sur
rounded in the laundry and followed to
the patrol box by curious throng. Muir

Chong was soon under treatment by the
physicians at the hospital Murphy was

MIR. Mercer Colonel Lajoie advanced an
other peg in his effort to have the honor
OF demanding court of enquiry by get
ting in a mix-up with Mr.. Haskell, who
will be recalled by local patrons of the
sport as the gentlemanly umpire who was
an object Of great interest to a small sized
mob at the ball park one afternoon not
so many moons ago. Mr.. Haskell is in
our midst once more, but his behavior is
much improved and he now has a new
set of lamps which work ever so much
better than the old ONES he displayed dur
ing his earlier career In Washington. Mr.
Haskell failed TO see several plays during
the first game from the same viewpoint
as did Colonel Latoie. and the latter
uttered some little pleasantly about
smoking up. Mr.. Haskell won place
in the affections of the crowd for the
moment by ordering the colonel out Of
the game. As the captain Of the Ath-
letics meandered over to the bench the
world suddenly appeared brighter to
Pitcher Mercer and he commenced to
