SHREWD THIEVES ARRESTED. BI T THEY WERE NOT SHREWD ENOUGH FOR SAVANNAH. Have Gotten Away, However, Had They Not Thought the Town SO Easy—^one Theft, Accidentally Discovered, Led to Their Arrest. Used a Telescope Valise, Which One Man Loaded With Goods While His Partner Engaged the Attention of the Salesman—Both Men Evi dentally Professionals. Ben Loeb and T. E. Hall, two of the most daring and clever thievee that have ever operated in Savannah, were captured red-handed yesterday by Detectives Gar rity and Shea. Loeb and Hall reached Savannah Tues day afternoon, and immediately went to work, I. >1- Frank & Cos., on Broughton street, being their first victims. They continued operations yesterday morning, an d within a few hours had stolen goods valued at hundreds of dollars from I. Epstein and Eckman & Vetsburg. In each case their mode of operations was the same: They went into the stores pretending to be country merchants, buy ing fall stock, and asked to be shown various notions, principally gloves, hand kerchiefs, end fine silks. They were taken to the wholesale departments of these various articles by a clerk whom Loeb, who seemed to be the business partner of the firm, kept busily engaged in quoting and haggling ever prices and discounts, while Hall, the other -partner, who car ried a capacious and innocent looking valise of the telescope style, unnoticed, stowed away in it goods to the value of a hundred dollars or more according to the bulk of the goods, and the time he could work unobserved. In each case Loeb picked out a most substantial stock of goods, which he asked to have packed, paying that he would return os soon as he could get a check cashed, and that he would then pay for the stock, and give the shipping directions. This game tie worked in each of the stores from which he got goods, and in no case was he detected at the time, and hut for an ae ildent, -would not have been detected at nil. or not until so late that, both he and his partner would have had the time to e-scape. The accident that led to the detection of the fraud that had been perpetrated, occurred in the store of I. M. Frank yes terday morning. The bill of goods that had been supposedly bought by the two men the afternoon before had heen placed aside, but another order coming in from a country customer for a certain style of gloves, one of the clerks, in looking over the stock for the gloves, was led 'o believe that there were some of the kind wanted, sold to Loeb and Hall, and start ed to look for them in that -lot of goods To his surprise he found that there were no gloves to be found in the assortment. Knowing that they had been s'lected an l p#t aside with the remainder of the order, he at once reached the conclusion that they had been stol n, and with e-juai rap idity he decided that the pseudo mer chants were the thieves. A telephone mes sage was sent io the barracks for the de tectives, and Messrs. Garrity and Shea responded. To them ihe circumstances of the case were told, and they were given a thorough and accurate d'seription of the man. Within ten minutes from the time that they left the store they had both prisoners, and w-ere on their way back to Frank's to have them identified. It seems that the thieves had decided to make extensive hauls, while they were about it, trusting to their daring and cleverness not to be caught. So starting out yesterday morning they had visited the store of I. Epstein, and while Loeb kept the clerk employed. Hall had not only filled his telscope once with the best silks he could get hold of, but had taken it home, emptied it, returned to the store, filled it the second time, and for th“ second time, got away with it, when he was caught by the detectives. Previous to his visit to Epstein's he hod gone to Eckman & Vetsburg, and made a haul of goods to the value of about SIOO. Even up to the time of the capture of the thieves, neither of the Congress street houses knew that they had been robbed, and their first intimation to that effect was when they were called on by the de tectives. and Bske*d to go to the barracks and identify property supposed to be their’s. The men were arrested- in Johnson square as they were on their way to their room at No. 221 Congress street, east. Hall walked ahead with the telescope, whi'e I.*oeb came along behind. The detectives knew them to be the men wanted as soon as they saw them, so overtaking Loeb. Garrity told him he was wanted. He made no resistance, but Hall immediately suspected that the game was up and at tempted to escape by running. He went dow’n Bryan street as far as Sullivan’s bar, into which he turned, still carrying the telescope, but he was so closely press ed by Shea that he dropped it and at tempted to get away by running through the rear door of the bar. Before he could accomplish this, however, the detective caught him. When the room of the men was searched a trunk, a valise and a dress suit c‘ase were found. In the trunk w r as stored most of the plunder that had been secured from Erkman & Vctsburg. and from Epstein, while the other receptacles contained the Personal effects of the men. In them were found no letters or papers that threw’ any light on the past history or nets of the men. To the detectives they said that they here from New Orleans, and that this is their first job. Little credence, how ever. is given this story by the police au thorities. The men are well dressed and apparent ly well to do. All of their wear is of the best class. Nearly all the ties that were found in the valise are marked Kansas Olty, which leads the police to believe that they, or at least one of them, spent *ome time in that city. The trunk bears various marks showing that it has travel ed all the way from Portland, Oregon, via San Francisco to numerous cities of the West before it reached here. Thp men will be measured and photo graphed this morning and the police au thorities of Kansas City and New Orleans furnished photos and measurements and asked if the men are wanted in cither of those cities. DIDN'T WA\T IT THAT WAY. Kloctrle Llalit Company's Position In Wells Dnniaae Salt. Mr. A. C. Wright, counsel for the Brush Electric Light and Power Company in the famous damage suit brought against it by Kebecca Wells, says that the account of the proceedings in the motion for anew trial before Judge Norwood, that appear in yesterday’s Morning News, do€ not correctly state the position of Mr. Saussy an d himself. Counsel for the defendant, said Mr. "right, do not oppose the grant of the n '*v trial for which they have moved the J® u rt; they do not wish to have Judge Norwood grant it merely because counsel for the plaintifT is willing, ignoring the principal ground of error upon which their lotion is based. This principal ground is that Judge Norwood erred in refusing to Brant a non-suit and, in submitting the. consideration of the evidence in the case to the Jury. "hen on Tuesday, therefore, Judge Nor- Wr od announced that he would grant the trial, but that at the same time he held to the view of the,law that he has formerly entertained and, practically, that *> n the same evidence he w’ould again gub- MM HSCS ?

I was tired all the time, had no appetite, had wandering pains all over me more or less, and was very nervous, as I had been sick all the summer. I was all run-down and didn’t know what ailed me. I got advice from Dr. Pierce, telling me my symptoms better than I could describe them myself, ana also telling me that I would have to take care of myself, aud how to take the medicines.

If Judge Norwood grants the new trial under such circumstances the defendant will pimply be put to the expense of a fifth hearing, while if he grams it because his action in refusing a non-suit was not proper, this will virtually end the suit. If he refuses the trial, on this ground, the case may be carried to the Su preme Court and the point of law that counsel considers really and primarily at issue may be finally determined.

The Interstate Commerce Commission will probably be looking out for violations of the law demanding that all freight cars in the United States be equipped with airbrakes and automatic couplers. Yesterday was the day fixed for the law to become effective, but it is believed ■there are few of the roads in the country that have so equipped all their cars. In fact, it is well known that the majority have not done so. Nearly', if not quite, all have begun the work, but it is proba ble that the word “several” could include those that have finished it. The Central, the Plant System, the Sea board and the Southern have all been at work on their freight cars, but it is said their shops are still busy making the ad ditions. From time to time extensions were granted, the roads having been un able to equip their cars within -the limit first specified. Some months ago it was declared that all the lines entering Savan nah had forces employed in putting on the new attachments, which, by the way, represent a considerable cost, but it was not believed the work could be completed within the time left by the last extension, w hich was until Aug. 1. It is believed the equipment of the freight cars with air brakes and auto matic couplers will be the means of pre venting a great many disasters that now befall freight trains. The Interstate Commerce Commission. thinking this would be the case, recommended that Con gress pass such a law, and the congress men seemed to view the matter In the same light. It is said the railroads, once the cost of the equipment has been de frayed, will enjoy the advantage of few accidents and, consequently, fewer dam ages to repair and injury indemnities to pay, besides being able to operate freight trains with smaller crews. THE DAY DROUGHT CHANGES. Three Gentlemen Gave t'p Their Po nttions With the Senhoard. Yesterday, being the first of the month and the date fixed for the termination of the services of three gentlemen In the’r old positions with the Seaboard Air Line, saw their wilhdraw-al. One or ell of them may continue with Ihe line in other ca pacities. though it is said this has not yet been arranged. Mr. Allen, ticket agent under the Hus sars* Armory, has closed up his office. Mr. W. D. O’Dwyer has retired as trav eling freight agent et Savannah, and Mr. F. V. Peterson has given up the position of traveling passenger agent. Their many friends hope these gentlemen will soon be cared ior with equally as advantageous positions. COLUMBUS EXCURSIONISTS. Party of Some 250 Came in Yesterday Over the Central. A party of some 350 excursionists from Columbus and that territory arrived by the Central Railroad yesterday morning. They were accompanied by Mr. L. A. Camp, traveling passenger agent at Co lumbus. The tickets read to Savannah, but many of the excursionists went to Tybee. Their tickets have a limit several days hence, and it is probable that the majority will not return until the limit expires. Yesterday Mr. Camp took a num ber of the visitors to the Ocean Steam ship Company’s wharves, showing them the vessels in port. ARE FIGHTING SCALPERS. Railroads Continue Efforts to I>rive Them Ont of Hnsinena. The railroads have not abandoned their fight against the ticket brokers. They are determined to suppress traffic in tickets if possible. The difficulties they have en countered in this effort have thus far been insurmountable, but they still hope for ultimate success. One of the latest literary efforts that railroads have directed against the scalp ers is a pamphlet which tells about the various cases before couris in different states that have resulted in brokers being sent to prison for forging tickets. President John M. Egan of the Central Railroad was in Augusta yesterday. General Superintendent T. D. Kline of the Central is out on the line of the read. Mr. Fred D. W’hite, commercial agent at Montgomery for the Central Railroad, will arrive in the city this morning with a party of forty Montgomery citizens. Who will take the Kansas City this morn ing for New York. CITY BREVITIES. Mr. Daniel Zipperer, and Mr. S. M. Davis, and a number of friends pic nicked yesterday at the Hermitage.

Successful Entertainments for St. Joseph's Orpliaungc. Washington. Ga , Aug. I.—The excur sion from Augusta for the benefit of St. Joseph’s Orphanage was a grand succe s. Nearly a thousand people came with the excursion, and many more tickets were sold, but Wx re forfeited on account of the threatening weather. The day proved to be a flue one, and the barbecue in the practiced hands of Sheriff Callaway, was one of his best. The ball game was the prettiest exhibition of the national game we have had this year, and resu ted in a score of 2 to 0 in favor of Washington. Short and Lafitte did the battery work fer Washington. Bohler and Norvell for Augusta. It is estimated that the net re ceipts from the barbecue, ball game and excursion will amount to $609, which will go to the Orphanage.
