WITH ROBBERIES

WILLIE SPENCER ALLEGED
LEADER OF GANG OF THIEVES
WHO OPERATED HERE CAP
TUREP IN MOBILE.

Willie Spencer, coIored, alleged to
be the leader of the gang which has
been entering residences both night
and dav for the past several weeks,
was captured IN Mobile yesterday and
is to be returned TO the city for trial
Spencer, who is a mUlattO, was traced
to that city by Chief Sanders, who
requested the Mobile police to make
the arrest
When captured by the police OF
Mobile, Spencer, 1t is claimed, ac-
knowledged to the robbeTies in this
city and SAYS he has the stolen goods
concealed here and will produce
them when brought back.
Two of the gang are IN the city JAN
here, James and stevens, while an
other is yet at largf perhaps in Mo-
bile.
notorious gang had unique way Of
operating. It is claimed Willie
Spencer, the leader. did most Of the
work. but was supported and assisted
bv the other four. It is charged that
in the East Jackson street robbery he
had with him Albert James. who is
now in Jail here. James watched on
the outside while Spencer went IN
and took the goods. In the DeVillier
street theft stevens prayed the part
Of Waterman for Spencer, il is said.
J. H. Harris, a restaurant keeper on
Tarragona street, is also in Jail and
it is charged that he was connected
with the gang as a cOnfdant and aid.
The policeman here found a lawn
mower, which had been stolen, hid
den under Harris's residence on Bel
mont street
This combination of alleged negro
robbers. none of whom are over
eighteen years of age, except Harris,
has given the police and detective
department OF this city q lot OF
trouble for the past two weeks. They
operated mostly in the day time and
generally represented themselves as
common Iaborers of the city, going
frsFn place TO place asking for small
Jobs of work Turned away from one
house they applied at the next and so
on until they found one where the
people were away from home, or per
haps no one there except women and
children. In the first instance they
simply entered the building and made
quick work in getting away with
whatever valuables they could lay
hands on. In the second case, Spen-
Ger would enter the rear Of the

Hon. Frank Reilly, Chairman, Citi-
Zens' Committee on PalafOx Street
Parkway, Pensacola, Fla.
Dear Sir: ] beg to advise you that,
after several meetings with your
committee and consultation with the
consulting engineer, this board viii
recommend to the city council, when
the matter reaches the council, that
the plans for paving made by Mr..
HattOn be changed in the following
respects, provided, the street railway
tracks remain In the center of the
street az at present:
That the pavement on PalafOx
street, between Garden and Wright
streets, be laid ten (10) feet nearer
the property line on each side Of Pal
afox street; that is to say. be laid
within fifteen Q5) feet OF the prop =
erty line.
That the pavement on Wright
street, from Palafox to TarragOna
street be laid in the same manner as
OIL Palafox street; that is to say,
with a double line of pavement be-
tween which shall be grass plot in
the middle of the street, on which
grass plot the street car tracks shall
be laid.
This board desires to express the
opinion that the placing Of the street

debar the city from widening the
streets should same become neces-
sary or desirable.

Bond Trustees to Council.

July 81, 1909.
Hon. President and Council. Pensa-
celia, Florida,
Gentlemen: This board has been
informed that the council will be re-
0UeSted to take steps necessary TO
change the plan for paving PalafoX
street, adopting the plan for a park
way between Garden street and
Wright street prepared BY Mr.. Kess-
Ter in place of the plan prepared by
Mr. HattOn, the consulting engineer.
This board has had meeting with
the Citizens Committee which has
this matter in hand, and has been
requested to recommend to the coun-
Gil the adoption of the plan prepared
by Mr.. Kessler.
After q full discussion OF both
plans and a careful consideration OF
the matter. the board feels that the
KessIer plan is not the proper plan
tt. be adopted, but, in order to meet
the views of many citizens and to ii
in the beautifying of the Palafox
Street Parkway, the board begs 10
make the following recommendations,
Provided, the street railway tracks
remain in the center of the street, as
at present:
That the pavement on Palafox
street, between Garden and Wright
str eets. be laid ten O0) feet nearer
the property line on each side Of Pal
afox street; that is to say, be laid
within fifteen (15) feet of the prop
erty line on each side of the street.
That the pavement on Wright
street, between PalafoX and Tara
gCna streets be laid in the same man
ner as the above mentioned pavement
on Palafox street: that is to say,
with a double line Of paving, each
twenty-five (25) feet wide, between
which shall be a grass plot in the
middle of the street. on which grass
PLOT the street car tracks shall be
laid.
This board desires to add that
many of the property holders along
PaIafox street between Garden and
Wright streets are opposed to any
change in the location of the street
car tracks, and to express the Opin-
ion OF the board that the placing OF
the street car tracks on the outside
o. the parkway will forever debar
the city from widening these pave
ments should the same become desir-
able or necessary
The board therefore. protests most
earnestly and emphatically against
any change being made in the loca-
ton of the railway tracks on Palafox
street between Garden and Wright
streets.
Respectfully submitted,
R. NJ. BUSHNELL,
Chairman.
