CIR COMPANY PLANS
To Catch THIEVES
Wire SteaIers to Be IraiIed With
B!oodhounds in Future.

The Virginia Passenger and Power
Company is determined to break up a
gang of thieves who have lately been
stealing feed and trolley wires from
their suburban lines, ana with this idea
in view General Manager Huff yester-
day afternoon had posted an order at
all of the car-shedS, in which ne gives
implicit instructions to the conductors
and motormen to the mode of pro
cedure in case they discover any wire
missing along the respective lines upon
which they are employed. Above all
things it is commanded that neither Of
the operatives leave the car, but that
some one be left to guard the wire I'M
til headquarters has sent a detective
with a pack Of bloodhounds TO relieve
him.
Mr. Huff is firmly OF the opinion that
with the assistance of b!oodhounds the
thieves may be run down, and for fear
that by leaving their cars and INDUCING
in personal Investigation of the theft
the scent will be disturbed he cautions
that the men remain on their cars.
TENT OF THE ORDER.
The order follows:
ITO Motornen and Conductors:
IN the event Of any trolley or feed
wire being stolen along our lines. l wish
to caution especially the motormen and
conductors who first discover it. not to
get off on the ground at that point
place some one on guard to keep peo-
pie away and as soon as possible cali up
old phone 10 for assistance in order that
some one may be sent promptly to keep
people from confusing the trail
I'VE wish to trail. with bloodhounds1

This step is taken by the company in
order to run down the band of thieves
who have been stealing trolley and feed
wire from the suburban lines of the sys-
tenn. The company have standing re-
ward of 5000 for the arrest and con-
viction OF any one caught in the act,
and have secured the services of "Hurri-
cane" Branch to run down the law
breakers with his pack of boodhounds.
