WIND OF CARDUI Women :: i; IS; 49, &c: ed are
ARRESTED ALLEGED VICTIM.
Continued from 10th Page.

Brunswick He claims that about 2
O'Clock yesterday morning three white
men held him up at York and Lincoln
streets, and relieved him of his money.
He said that he was on his way to the
tenderloin when a man stepped out in
front of him and ordered him to sur
render his cash. According to his
statement the muzzle of a revolver was
sticking under his nose, but he struck
the highwayman and sent him Keeling.
Ammons said that then it was the
other two men jumped him.
He claimed to have put up a hard
fight but that he was overpowered. He
received a blow in the abdomen that
took his wind away and claimed that
this kept him from shouting. He says
that the highwaymen struck him sew
eral times, and each time the blow
landed on his wind and prevented him
using his voice. The money, he said,
was in greenbacks and the man who
went through him was told by one of
the others that the roll would be found
IN certain pocket. The victim made
report of the robbery at police head
quarters Immediately and carried an
officer to the point where he WAS as
sGulted and. robbed. The ground was
torn up as if a scramble had taken
place and the complainant stated that
it was the result of his encounter.
The. man called again at headquar-
ters and talked with the city detectives
about the hold-up. Detective Wall
listened attentively to his statement
and thought that it sounded somewhat
fishy. Ammons, according to the de-
tective was able to give an accurate
description of each of the three high
waymen and to describe in detail their
apparel. He even went so far as to APP
proximate their weight and hight, and
told the color of their hair. Usually
the victims of robbers are too badly
frightened to furnish much of a de-
scription of them and Ammons' man
ner aroused the suspicious of the de-
tective.
Wall began a quiet investigation
which he followed up by ar-esting the
stranger as a suspicious character. The
officer learned, he says. that the mans
board was due yesterday and that he
had to make an excuse of some sort for
it's non-payment. The detective found
that Ammons had little or nothing in
his room and his personal effects did
not bear out the story that the owner
was a man who would carry $S3 on his
person. The officer was also able to
disprove other statements made by the
complainant. In the language of the
detective Ammons' story was "alto-
gether too strong" During the after
noon Detective Wall arrested two other
young white men who are held at the
station house as suspicious characters.

Real Estate Agents Worried by

does q house become vacant, they say,
than, no matter what precautions are
taken, it is entered and the lead pip

This sort of robbery began some five
months ago, lit is stated, and has been
going OIL ever since. In one case, in a
number of new houses now building on
West Boundary, near Railroad street,
the lead piping has been stolen twice
within the last few weeks, so that the
plumbing fixtures have been put in
three times.
No precaution that the agents take

gone so far, as to nail up houses that
We're vacant, only to find in a short
time that a door or a window had
been pried open, and that thief had
entered and got away with. the usual
booty. These thefts are not confined
to out of the way places, as might be
supposed, but take place in houses on
the most populous streets in the city
The agents say they are at loss as
to what to do next. Every theft, they
state, has been reported to the police,
but with no visible result, so far as
