NGAGEMENT AT SANTIAGO
A. P. Clark Is the Loser of a Watoh and
Some Money.
About midnight A. P. Clark of
Quaker Hill was the victim of a clever
robber. Mr. Clark was in bed and
asleep at his hotel when he was relieved
of a silver watch and forty-five dollars
in money. The robbery occurred between the hours of: ten o’clock p. m.
and midnight as Mr. Clatk was awake
at these intervals. The only occupants of the place beside Mr. Clark at
the time of the robbery were Mrs. Wilcoxen who is employed asa cook at the
hotel and Chas. Sweet, the teamster
and neither of these heard anything of
the robber’s entrance nor exit. The
first Mr. Clark knew of his loss ‘was
when at one o’clock he. awoke*and
reached for his watch, which he had
laid on the stand at the head of his
bed, and found it was gone. He next
discovered that his pants were also
missing. The latter were found afterwards in another room, but forty-five
dollars in money had been extracted
from the pockets before the robbers departure,
and others began an _ investigation
and search and the thief was tracked
to within a mile and half of this city
where all further clue was lost because
ofthe many wagons and horses that
had already gone. over the road. Mr.
Clark proceeded on to this city where he
reported his loss at the Shériff’s office
and the officers are on the lookout for
the robber and the stolen plunder.
~ A “Queer’’ Case. .
As this morning’s incoming train was
nearing Buena Vista Conductor Loughridge noticed a man off in the brush
who appeared to be acting strangely.
Mr Loughridge stopped his train and
motioning to the man prevailed on getting him aboard. ‘The wanderer asked
if his train would take him to Olarksville, and upon being answered affirmatively by the conductor got on and
came to this place where Officer Neagie
was awaiting him at the depot, Mr.
Loughridge having telephoned from
Grass Valley that he thought he had a
crazy man on board, The man gives
his name as Robert Ryland and says
he is a carpenter contractor and that
he was working with a gang of men on
the railroad. He is certainly demented,
but whether from the effect of a recent
debouch or from other causes that cannot at present be ascertained. His
stories of his adventures are very conflicting and the officers are unable to
properly diagnose his case as yet, He
refers toa Mr. Taylor as proprietor of
the hotel at Clarksville and in the next
breath has this gentleman located in
the same business at Sacramento, .He
intimates that he will befinanciaily
ruined unless he is given his freédom
today as he has a contract that if he
fails in its fulfillment he must forfeit
$500. The officers will await further
developments before determining what
can be done for him,
