Additional saloon Licenses Granted,
Making ThIrteen stIu Up In the
AIr-Mru. Alice Carpenter
Dead.

The police are investigating the ante
oedenta OF Frank 4. Goelt. who ar
rested yeste day morn ng at Twenty-seventh
and 10 streets after having created such q
disturbance In the locality that he brought
the residents out OF bed and himself ran the
risk of being shot by some of the indignant
people.
Goelet broke the windows Of some Of
the houses, and from the number Of shots
fired the wonder Of the police Is that
someone was not injured.
Goelet confessed yesterday that he had
been ten months in the Ohio penitentiary
for burglary. He said he had done time"
because he kept his mouth closed to save
a pal" Prior to this he had been in the
United States army. but why he left he
does not disclose.
The police are inclined TO think his story
that he was ''sbsinthe crazy" IL a stall,
ana they say that he was seen with two
others around this locality, from which two
ourglaries were reported yesterday morn
ing.
one OF the burglaries was at the home
OF j. M. Henry 1898 North Twenty-cixth
street, where a quantity of wearing ap-
parel was carried off, and another was at
ZolB street Earl Cox losing his gold
watch In this case the midnight providers
did not want the clothing They threw It
osck on the porch. but took the watch.
The houses had been rummaged by someone
with rubber shoes, as the people did not
know of their presence until they got I'D
in the morning
Inc police suggest that Goelet was one
OF the gang that did the robberies and that
his love for absnthe chilled with ice"
has been his undoing while his confreres
were able 20 escape.

The following additional saloon licenses

Frank Traynowicz. Thirty-first and O
