Released From Custody.

Robert Frazer, a young colored resident
of Southeast Washington, was in the tolls
in Judge Scott's branch Of the Police Court
today on a charge of petty character, filed
against him on complaint of Policeman
Sherer of the fifth precinct. The court.
after hearing from the policeman, failed to
see why Frazer was brought in on such a
charge and released him from custody.
Policeman Sherer testified that he saw
Frazer loafing around the corner of 9Th
and / streets southeast at an early hour
Tuesday morning and again Wednesday
morning, at which time he placed him under
arrest, in view of the fact that the proprfe-
tor of store in that neighborhood had
complained several days previous OF the
theft of some goods from his place of bust
ness. Since his arrest the colored youth
has been held at the station house as
suspect but an investigation failed to con-
meet him with the theft and he was brought
into court this morning and charged with
an offense which had no connection with
the alleged crime.

ALLEGED STAMP THIEF.
Post Office Inspectors Believe They
Have Caught One

United States postal inspectors have re-
ing into custody an alleged postage stamp
thief, Charles H. Thimme, who was said to
have stolen about $500 worth of rare
stamps from display case at the Buffalo
exposition July 3, 1901. The long search
of Post Office Inspectors Sullivan and Price
was one of the most interesting in the his
tory of this branch of the detective service
of the country.
Thimme was a private in the United
States army in 1901, and was stationed at
the pan-American exposition at Buffalo. A
case of valuable postage stamps of various
designs and worth was broken into in the
government building and part of the con-
tents stolen. Thimme was suspected, and
trail ever since.
He was found in ST Louis, Mo-, June 3,
two years and eleven months after the
theft, and the stamps are said to have been
discovered in his room. This was within
one month of the expiration of the statute
of limitations.
1t is understood that Thimme left the
army, his term of enlistment expiring
short time after the alleged theft, and that
he entered into partnership with another
man in the painting trade. Having some
trouble with his partner not long ago, the
latter informed on him, and his arrest fol-
lowed
He had disposed Of a large number of the
stamps, but some of the most valuable
specimens were among those found. and II
Is believed he was afraid to try to sell
them. These the inspectors recovered.
Thimme is now locked up in st. Louis
awaiting the action of the government au-
thorities

Alleged Rude Treatment to Mccormick

cablegram from London last night says:
The Berlin correspondent of the Morning
Express telegraphs: Information has
reached me from reliable source that
Robert S. Mccormick, the American ambas-
sador to Russia, is being subjected to Sc
we're persecution in Russian high society
because of the sympathy for the Japanese
which has been shown in America since the
outbreak of the war.
Ambassador Mccormick has hitherto re-
sided In the Leuchtenberg Palace, one of
the most magnificent residences in ST. Pc
tiers irg. but he has now received notice to
vaclte the premises. This notice to quit Is
attributed solely to the anti-American feel
ing of the owner of the palace. who is re-
lated to the Russian imperial family. He
is reported to have said: My ancestors
would turn in their graves if they knew
that the family home was inhabited by
the representative of country which has
shown itself hostile to Russia
Indeed high society in ST. Petersburg
has instituted boycott against Mr.. and
Mrs. Mccormick, and she is quoted as ex-
pressing desire to leave ST. Petersburg
