JAILED FOR STORE BRtAkIAG
Jos Blocker, Colored, Arrested
Early Yesterday Morning
Officers Believe He j. the Man Who
Entered Mr.. r. H Bryan's Store at
Scott's Hill Some Time Ago-WW
be Carried to Pender for Trial

An important arrest was made yes
terday morning shortly after 3 O'Clock,
in Hutaff's alley, in Brooklyn, by Con-
stable Savage and Deputy Sheriff. Ed
Cams. when 10 Blocker, colored, col
ored. alias Bud Blocker was appre-
bended and locked up in jail on the
charge OF ore-breaking, growing out
of the recent robbery of the store OF
Mr.. r. X. Bryan at SCOTS Hill The
Pender county authorities were not-
fed yesterday morning ef the arrest
and adTices were later received here
asking that Blocker be held until an
officer could be sent to Wilmington TO
take the prisoner TO Render.
LEGAL interest in the case was arous-
ed on account of the Fact that the rob-
berry occurred on the might OF the day
in which tsyo cOnvicts made their es-
cape from the county road gang near
the national cemetery and there were
reports that the thieves were belleVed
TO be the escaped criminals. Consta-
,be Savage went to Scott's Hill at that
| time. with the bloodhounds, in an eff
/, fort to trace the convicts but certain
ievidence that was brought out made
| it clear that the escaped men were not
guilty of the store breaking. However
{ on the investigation of the case, GER
i tain clews were found on which Con-
| stable Savage has worked to find the
man guilty of breaking into the store
! The arrest of Blocker is the outcome
| of his efforts in the case.
| When arrested Blocker scOutsy de-
| MED having been in ScOtt's Hill, but
| later he admitted that he was there
on the night of the robbery and tina:
the came on 10 Wilmington the next
dav. It was also revealed that the i'm
preston mede by the shoes which
Blocker wears corresponds exactly
with the tracks found leading from the
store on the morning of the rob
hery.

TT WAS FOR CORTELYOU
Package Addressed to Secretary of
the Treasury Explodes When
Stamped.

The explosion of what appears to
have beeen a large percussion cap in
a package addressed to Secretary of
the Treasury Geo. B. Cortelyou, ere
ated excitement in the Nicetown sub
station of the Philadelphit postoffice
today. The package was about four
inches long by two inches wide and
three quarters of an inch thick. When
a clerk brought his steel cancellation
die upon the stamp the package ex-
ploded and was torn to pieces. The
clerk was undurt.
The authorities think the package
was mailed as a joke as there was not
sufficient explosive matter in it to
have done injury to any one. What
was in the package aside from the ex-
plosive cap the authorities will not say.
