NEGRO HELD Up

Of HIS CASH
REPORTED TO THE POLICE STA

DER SURVEILLANCE.

Joe Dillingham; came to the police
station yesterday morning and stated
that he had been held up at the point
of a gun on the Ringing right-of-way
near f St, n w, by white woman
and relieved of all the change, upon
his person, amounting TO a dollar.
Dillingham; says that he could not
give a very definite idea as to the
personal appearance of the woman
who relieved him of the cash, as the
muzzle of the six shooter occupied his
entire attention and he feared that
the woman would get nervous when
she found his person so bereft of coin
and let the artillery go off. From the
description he was able to give, how
ever, the police have a very good clue
to work on and they have been keep
ing a certain party under very close
surveillance.
