the institution. known In San Mateo
as Robert Ellis.
Ellis and the funds were missed by
the directors of the institution last
Friday and Immediately Mrs William
G. Hitchcock, treasurer of the or
phanage. and other officials employed
detectives TO trace Ellis.
Ellis has been superintendent of
the San Mateo orphanage for the last
two years. He was an able manager
and regarded as trustworthy by the
directors of the asylum, although 1t
was known to his employers that
Ellis was not his real name.
Several of the women directors of
the orphanage became interested in
Ellis during his employment at the
San Mateo home, and tried in vain to
bring about a reconciliation between
him and his wife, from whom he has
been separated for many months
The Armitage orphanage will pass
out of existence on October %. when
Antoine Borel will take over the
ground and buildings. Ellis service
would have ended on that date.

less than a minute apart. geysers of
foaming water leaping a hundred feet
skyward, marked the end of the three
men war. The harbor defense had
proved invulnerable and San Fran
cisco was safe from invasion.
COAST PATROL SIGHTS ENEMY
The enemy was sighted by the
coast patrol late yesterday afternoon.
Wireless flashes OF the approach
reached Major A. w Chase, mine
commander of the coast artillery, and
Captain Henry c. Merriam. COM
mander OF the mine planter General
Armistead. who besides Major Chase
is the only man in the artillery serv-
ice who knows the exact location of
mines used in the coast defense
Throughout the night cruisers guard
ed that section of the bay in which
the destructive mines were planted,
While the mine companies occupied
their battle stations.
An hour before dawn the enemy was
reported Is miles off the Golden gate.
When the three warships were a quar-
ter of a mile on Mile rock a prepara-
tory command was given. A few
minutes later came another order,
a switch was thrown open and an
electric spark igpited the fuse in
mine one a mile away.
There was a dull explosion. The
leading warship was blown to pieces
by the 100 pounds of explosive In
the mine which it was crossing at
that second.
OTHER VESSELS co DOWN
Twice more the command was given
and the remaining two vessels met
the fate of their leader.
OF course, it's all theoretical, but
It is exactly what would have hap

P0SSESHUNT
FOR TRAIN
R0BBER
Armed Men Searching Hills
for Bandit Who Looted
Mail Coach Yesterday

Armed posses are searching the
hills between San Francisco and Bur
lingame for the lone bandit who
robbed the mail coach of the San Luis
Obispo local train on the Southern
Pacific at Burlingame yesterday aft
ernoon.
Postal Inspector william Madeira
is looking for a suspicious stranger
seen at Burlingame by Gateman
James Dobbie just before the train
pulled in. The man talked to Dobbie,
saying he was a printer out of a job.
Dobbie lost sight of him when train
23 pulled in. Dobbie was standing on
the east side of the tracks and saw
no one enter the mail car. He be-
lieves the robber must have jumped
on the train several hundred feet out
of the station.
The suspect seen by Dobbie is de-
scribed as $50 pounds, feet 10 inches,
hat light gray or brown clothes and
black shoes, the right shoe toecap
being worn and ragged.
Postal Inspector James O'Connell
believes that the bandit did not Sc
cure more than 500 worth of val
tables.
Inspectors and detectives working
on the case are of the opinion that
the robber was formerly a railroad
man, as he displayed great dexterity
in boarding the train and seemed to
be familiar with the postal clerks
methods of working.
Detectives Mike Burke, George
Richards and Harry Cook of the local
detective department have been de-
tailed to assist the postal authorities
in tracing the bandit.
Mortimer M. Titus and George A.
Scott. the mail clerks who were in
the car when the robber entered.
say they are not positive they would
be able to identify the bandit should
he be captured. They describe the
outlaw as man 25 years of age, 5
feet 8 inches in height, dressed in
dark brown suit, dark SLOUGH hat,
black shoes and socks. The hand
kerchief he wore as a mask was of
blue polka dot material.
The clerks are uncertain where the
bandit left the train. 1t Is known
South City and took the mail that was
placed on board at that point. 1t is
believed that he stayed aboard the
train until 1T slowed up to enter the
railroad yards at Third and Townsend
streets.
Titus and Scott told the postal in
spectors that the bandit threatened
them with death if they removed he
mail bags which he ordered them to
place over their heads.
