fessed to the Sangamon county grand

OFFICIALS PUZZLED
OVER BOYS CAPTURE,

The police have a mystery at head
quarters in the form of an Italian boy
who says his name is William Rocco
Parrilli, of 43 Oliver street, New York.
He was picked up in the vicinity of
Broad and William streets shortly after
the robbery of Koenig & Co.'S sporting
goods store last evening.
He admits assisting in the looting of
that place. He says he was in COM
pany with three other boys, two of
whom enterered the store, while he
and the other stayed on watch. Just
whether he did enter the store or not
Acting Captain Connell says he has his
doubts.
The boy has told at least fifty diff
ferent tales to the detectives. Efforts
are being made to locate his compan-
ions, il he had any. 1t is the general
belief that the boy is mentally weak.
No one at the address given by him
knows him.

DETECTIVE ROOM
FILLED WITH TWO
BURGLARS LOOT
Negroes, Furnishing House for
Friends, Returned to One
Residence for Carpets.

The office of Acting Captain Connell,
of the Detective Bureau, today has the
appearance of the interior of a storage
house or a pawn shop. Piled about on
the tables and foor are the articles
stolen by the negro burglars, David
Spear and Reginald Westcott, from a
number of the residences in South
Broad street. The articles were recov-
cred yesterday by Detectives Ryan and
Cordano, who in company with sew
eral of the plundered residents of the
South Broad street section, went TO
New York to visit the pawnshops and
secondhand stores to identify the stol-
en- articles.
The recovered booty consists of many
silver spoons, several clocks, vases, re-
v~olvers, watches, cut glass ware and
handsome dresses, a seal skin sacque
and a quantity of other articles of wear
ing apparel. There is d trunkful of
loot taken from the home of Abram
Rothschild, 1901 Broad street.
1t seems that the negroes were en-
deavoring to furnish a apartment in
New York for several friends at the ex-
pense of local citizens. They admit this,
saying that one time they came espe-
cially with the purpose of taking back
some carpets. The articles stored in the
detective bureau represent several thou
sand dollars in value. Stephen f.
Meagher, of 1112 Broad street, made
formal complaint in the First Criminal
Court against the negroes today for
breaking, entering and stealing on two
occasions.

field of flowers they could not have

the revivifying warmth of the sun than
did the seven individual booms and
boomlets now sprouting Justify. The

that they were no longer to be misin-
terpreted changed the whole face of the
political map in the twinkling of an
eye.

not made a choice of a man to head
the ticket, and, furthermore. he is as
Enthusiastically non-committal as
