LOST THIRTY DOLLARS.
Edward Lynch Makes Report to Local
Police

Edward Lynch, resident of Seat Pleas
ant, Prince Georges county, Md, came to
the city yesterday to do some shopping.
He says he had more than $50 in his pocket
but lost it before he did his shopping.
When he called at police headquarters this
morning to tell of how he lost the money
he had one car ticket in his pocket, and
said he was glad he had that. Fearing he
might lose his money last night, he reg
istered at the Central Union Mission, and
remained there until this morning. 1t is
believed that he was followed from the
mission to the vicinity of Pennsylvania
avenue and I'd street northwest by two of
the dodgers. When he stopped on the cor
ner one of the men approached him and
put car ticket in his pocket. A minute
later he took the ticket from his pocket
and was surprised to find that his roll of
bills had been taken. Then he sought the
assistance of the police, and was told that
his chances of getting his money are very
slim.
