torney of Elkton. Md, on a recent
visit to this city. in some manner lost

suit OF the recovery of the pin De-
tectives King and Benson, of this city,
have arrested Thomas lSllengsworth,
OF Seaford, Del, and Anna Gray on
charge of the larceny of the pin.
After receiving a report from Mr.
Clayton of the loss of the pin the po-
lice made a search of the pawnshops
of this city and also Philadelphia, and
il was located in a pawnshop in the
latter city.
Yesterday Mrs. Peter f. Cassidy, OF
this city, called at the pawnshoD with
pawn ticket and asked to see the
diamond pin it called for. The pawn
broker became suspicious and called
the police. Mrs. Cassidy explained
that Ellengsworth had offered to sell
the pawn ticket to Mr.. Cassidy for
500. and that her husband desired
her to look at the stickpin before he
paid the money for il. The pin had
been pawned for S2c0. The police say
they have been informed that the pin
was given by Anna Gray TO Ellengs-
worth, hence her arrest along with
! him.

peared for the two who are accused
in the case. II was stated that the
State was not ready with the cases
today, and they were continued until
