STRANGE YOUTH HAD
BAG OF NEW CLOTHING
TellsRambling Story to Police
by Whom He Is Detained
Pending Investigation

About o'clock this morning as Patrol
man H. a. Wallace was walking along
Broome street toward Delaware avenue
from the north, he noticed youth COM
ing toward him on Broome street from
the south and quickening his steps arr
rived at the intersection of the two
thoroughfares in time to meet the man.
The latter acted queerly upon seeing the
officer and the fact of having bag slung
across his shoulders excited the suspicion
of the policeman, who upon investigat-
inc. found the sack filed with new cloth
ing. As the youth could give no salts
factory account as TO how he came into
possession of the clothing, Wallace
placed him under arrest.
At the police station the prisoner gave
his name as William Rudd and said he
purchased the articles found in his pos
session in Baltimore, and was on his way
from that city when arrested. The po-
lice discredit this story, however, be-
cause when apprehended Rudd was walk
ing toward Baltimore instead of away
from it as would have been the case had
his story been true.
In the bag were three new suits OF
clothing made of excellent material, fv,
pairs of stockings and six pocket hand
kerchiefs. On the collar of each coat
was the firm name "The Stein-Blocl
Company, Wholesale tailors, registered
1883" No address was given, but from
local clothing merchant the authoritie.

made TO find an owner for the clothes.
The prisoner was arraigned in Cit,
Court this morning and held under S20'
bail until Saturday night in order to giv'
the police time to investigate the case
