 Trench fs Precafious.
 Joseph Dorsey. the negro who was seriously injured in the cave-in of the sewer trench on Tatum Street Tuesday were killed. spent good day at the Hale 1nfirmary. where he Is being cared for. but his condition Is regarded as very precarious.
 The head nurse at the infirmary said last night that he was injured inter nally. 1t could not yet be told how se. riously. and that the outcome of his injuries could not be fcretold. He was very restless from about II o'clock ing. when he became more quiet. There seem to be no bones broken, and the only serious feature of his case is the internal injury he suffered. The na- ture of that injury Is not known.
 Work was resumed yesterday morn- ing on the sewer trench on Tatum Street. between Hall and Jackson but with reduceF force. many of tho that portion of the sewer, notwith- standing the contractors had taken every precaution possible to prevent a recurrence of the cave-in. The banks were supported, and the work made as secure as possible. but only about a dozen negroes could be secured to work there. while forty or fifty were de- sired.
 MT. Laird of the firm of Black & Lairo, which Las the contract for the con- struction of the sewer, arrived yester- day from Birmingham. where the firm has another contract, to make an in- vestiEation of the accident.

 During her absence, DoZier. who was employed ss 2 porter by the Randy the house to get an ice cream freezer that had been taken there flled with secured the pocketbook and left.
 As soon as the robbery was reported ham and Payne began work upon it. and soon found that Dozier had gone to the house. but had left without the beye ase os S sSna and he s saS once locked up on suspicion.
 Tuesday night not a thing could be learned from the negro. but yesterday that he had taken the money from the purse. throwing the pocketbook. with the remainder of the contents. which he did not know had any value. over the fence of Oakwood Cemetery near the corner of Pollard and Ripley Streets. The negro claimed there was only $30 in the pocketbook.. This he had used fo- the purchase of a bicycle. Mrs. sneehan. however. testified in pocketbook had contained sso. The remaining sso has not been found. as point in the cemetery indicated py the negro. contained no money.
 All of the jewelry. which consist sd of a diamond locket and chain. a dia- mond pin. with seven stones. a tur- quoise and diamond ring. and a gold bracelet. was still in the pocketbook when 1t was found.
 The recovery of Mrs. Sheehan's 1ew- elry within twenty-four hours of the time 1t was stolen. with the prompt arrest and successful prosecution of the preliminary examination of the thief, is regarded as very good work by the pcliee Q. adding greatly to the al ready excellent reputation of the de- partment in the ferreting out of crime and the arrest of criminals.
