One Of the most important arrests
made In this city in many months was
that accomplished yesterday afternoon,
when Constable Savage lodged III Jail
Walter Moore, a young negro man,
recently in the employ of the Southern
Express company, charged with the
breaking into and robbery of express
packages, the thefts having covered Il
period Of time extending for more than
a year past.
The frequent loss of goods consigned
to the express office here caused the
ot1clals to suspect that the robberies
We're probably committed in the local
Office and they have kept sharp watch
to detect who the guilty person was
A detective was called in for a while
and several months ago Constable Saw
age was put On the case and he has
worked diligently trying to find out
where the leak was. Decoys were set
and finally on yesterday there was con-
s1dered evidence sufficient to charge
Moore with the thefts. In fact he was
caught red-handed, with cigars in his
possession taken from the express Of
fee
A warrant for his arrest was at once
taken out and Moore was soon lodged
in Jail. He did not confess nor deny
his guilt but said he was only trying
to fool the driver.
Later search warrant was obtained
and Constable Savage, in company with
several Of the local express officials
went to the home of Moore on Orange
street between Seventh and Eighth,
and there made thorough search Of
his room. In his trunk and in other
parts of the room were found many
articles that apparently easily estab-
lished his guilt. The goods were taken
down to the office of Justice FurlOng
and in the large pile a reporter
counted eleven pairs of trousers, Sev-
eral coats and vests, a rain coat,
tuxedo coat. a handsome black skirt,
full sets of mems wooden underwear,
unbrOken boxes of cuffs and cravats, q
roll of carpet, and several jugs and
bottles of whiskey. Altogether there
is probably nearly $500 worth of mate
rial that has been recovered.
The goods are of the H. S. and M,
ROgers-Peet & Co., and other makes,
and were originally consigned to the
A. David Co., J. NJ. SOlky & Co., Mum
son & Co., and Shrier. Long ago these
merchants put in their claims for the
lost goods and they have been settled
by the express company
1t is probable that the trial of Moore
will be held on Tuesday. This arrest
has caused a feeling of relief to The
express officials here, as the constant
disappearance Of valuable articles from
the local Office was not only source
of much worry but also of more Or
less financial loss.
Moore has always borne a fairly
good reputation. He came to the city
several years ago from the farm of
Mr.. D. N Chadwick and for several
years was employed and acted as driver
for Dr. W. J. H. Bellamy. About three
years ago he left the employ of DR..
Bellamy, since which time he has been
at the express office
The progress of the trial will be
watched with much interest.

the negro man who was shot and pain
fully injured by Engineer Jas. A. Pee
bles on the steamer Tar Heel on Fri

hospital last night as being much i'm

the wounds might prove fatal. but
now it is believed the negro will re-
cover. There is a possibility that the
man may lose an arm, but even this is
not considered probable. Otherwise his
condition is satisfactory.
Engineer PEBBLES is still held await
