POLICE NAB TRIO
ON THEFT CHARGE
Arrested for RObbing Mer'
chants of Butter.

With the arrest OF Raymond Johnson
Arthur Ford, and Raymond Johns. all
negroes, the police think they have in
custody the trio of thieves who for the
past three months have been robbing
merchants and farmers wagons in the
market district of provisions and other
property. The trio was arrested by De-
tectives Howes and Messer, of the First
precinct, yesterday afternoon, and are
locked up on charges of larceny.
Had Johnson, the eldest of the three
prisoners, desisted in using his pockets
as hiding places for butter, he and his
companions would probably still |be un-
suspected of any wrongdoing. 1t was
the greasy appearance of the negro's
clothing. according to the detectives, that
attracted their attention to him as he
was standing near Tenth street and
Louisiana avenue northwest.
Evidently the negro suspected that he
was being watched shortly after some
butter had been missed from a nearby
wagon. The butter became unmanage-
able. according to the police, and began
running from the negrO's pocket Then
it was that the detectives placed the
man under arrest
The three negroes are charged specific
ally with stealing thirty pounds OF butter
from Stephen BraXtOn. OF the Center
Market and clothing valued at $40 from
another merchant.
