Detectives Wren and Reynolds took
Mrs. Nellie Grady, a lodging house keeper
at 81 Sixth street, and Miss Virginia
Scott, q girl 16 years Of age. and a resi-
dent of Stockton, into custody yesterday.
The arrests disclosed the fact that the
elder woman was schooling the younger
in the art OF shoplifting and the latter
was on her first expedition when she was
detected. Her clumsy work proved her
undoing. A price tag a silk shirt
waist that had just been stolen hung out
side q handgrip in which it had been
secreted. One OF the clerks noticed it
and the women were detained.
After the prisoners had been locked up
in the City Prison the detectives searched
Mrs. Grady's room in her lodging house
and recovered about $500 worth of stolen
property. There were expensive silk
skirts, waists, gowns and underwear in
abundance. Also silverware, coats, mink
skins. stockings. handkerchiefs. spoons,
gloves, bric-a-brac, satchels, card cases,
pictures, beads, clocks and almost every
article that could be easily taken. In ad-
dition 10 this loot the police learned that
the woman placed in storage two other
trunks laden with stolen material and she
must have operated extensively for some
time.
The women were captured in Weinstock,
closing hour Miss Scott carried the
sstchel and Mrs. Grady after stealing
the shirtwaists slipped them TO her. In
the satchel were found four waists
valued at IS apiece, and another waist
was discovered in the folds Of Miss
SCOTS dress. At the City Prison the
younger woman asserted that she was
visiting Mrs. Grady. whom she knew in
Stockton. and that il was the first time
she had ever accOrnpsnfed ber on any
OF her shoplifting trips. Mrs. Grady at
tempted 10 pass the burden of the blame
10 Miss ScCtU, but the clerk in the store
saw the elder woman pick up one of the
Sllirtwaists. When the article was gone
the price tag was seen hanging out Of
the sstchel carried by Miss Scott and
the detectives were sent for. When ask

Grady attempted TO deceive the police
by giving a wrong number, but a thor

go away, leaving it behind. The officer
picked up the book and overtaking the
owner returned it to him.
The man first asked him to have a
drink, and on being informed that the
officer was not a drinking man said:

In the office of the Warrant and Bond
Clerk and the court of Judge Fritz there
is agitation over the alleged unprofes-
sional conduct of an attorney named
Vaughn.
The story goes that Warren Herman.
alias Newman, keeper of shipping
agency at rs Steuart street. informed Pa
trolman McGreavy that a sailor aboard
the British ship Battle Abbey was a de-
serter from the United States navy; that
McGreavy arrested the mariner, who not
only proved he was no deserter, but en-
ployed Vaughn to prosecute Herman, and
that Vaughn obtained a warrant for Her
mans arrest. but before presenting it for
Judge Fritz's signature visited Herman
at the latter's residence, on Diamond
street. and notified him Of what had been
done said visit and notification being ir-
regular.
After Herman had complained of
vaughns conduct he weakened, and his
wife has been summoned to tell what she
knows about the incident. Attempt to
extort has been hinted at. and the case
promises to wax in interest.
F. Hopkins. who is under $4,000 bond on
