exertions to capture the burglars, and
Captain Anderson said yesterday that

Detectives Burke an Gallagher. who
have been specially detailed on the

tained a clew that will lead TO the ar
rest of the three burglars Three men
are under suspicion, two of whom,
they say. are acquainted with Mrs. Ethel
Price, the servant at the Harrington
home. They had not been in the room
which they occupied for the last two
nights and the probabilities were that
they were in hiding in the city or have
gone to the country. One of them, the
detectives say, borrowed revolver
from friend last Thursday
Doctor Harrington reported yester-
day that three lockets. each with a
small diamond valued at $50, had also
