HOTEL ROBBERIES.
Daring Theft at the Metropolitan Hotel-Robbery
of United States Bonds at the Continental
Hotel, Long Branch-Arrest of a Noted Hotel
Thief, Etc.
A most daring theft was perpetrated at an
early hour yesterday morning at the Metropo
litan Hotel in this city by a couple of ruffians.
Among the guests at the hotel is Mr. John A.
Chittenden, a wealthy resident of Idaho Terri
tory, who Is temporarily solourning in this city.
On Sunday night Mr. Chittenden retired to rest,
locking his door as usual. Nothing of moment
occurred during the uhrht, but at about ball
past 6 o'clock in the morning Mr. Chittenden
was aroused by some person stoulthliy endeavor
ing to abstract his vest frni under his pillow,
where he bad placed it for sale keeping. On
looking round, Mr. Chittenden was surprised
to behold two men standing in his room. He
sprang from the bed at once, when the in
truders took to their hetls, carrying off with
them Mr. Chittenden's vest, which contained gold
certificates amouuting to $1700. $300 in green
backs, and a gold watch and chain valued at
$G00. Mr. Chittenden lollowcd the thieves
through the hnll and down several flight of
stairs, crying "Stop thief!" as he pursued.
Quite a crowd collected, amontr them several
ladies, and as Mr. Chittenden was but scantily
attired, he returned to his room to dress him
self. Wbilo passing through the hallway he
found bis vest where the thieves had thrown
it In their flight. On examining it the con
tents were found Intact, the thieves beiuz too
much t-lxorbed in their efforts to escape to
empty the pockets of the vest. Mr. Chittenden
hastily dressed himself, and on going down,
learned that one of the thieves who had paid so
unexpected a visit to bis room had b3en inter
cepted and detained, but his accomplice had
made his escape. Detective Tieman was sent
lor, and took him in custody. The prisoner
gave his name as Charles A. Dawson. An ex
amination of the room occupied by Mr. Chitten
den was then made, wheu it was discovered that
the thieves had entered the room through the
fan-light over the door, and then unlocked and
unbolted the door, thus leavtnir a means of re
treat in case of surprise. They then secured $53
in gold aud silver coin, which they abstracted
irom Mr. Chittenden's pantaloons pocket. Thts
money was not recovered, as no doubt the thief
"who escaped had it in his possession. Dawson
was taken before Justice Dowling, at the Tombs,
and committed ior trail in default ot $2000 bail.
He is only 17 years ot age; was born and resides
in Baltimore.
Theft ef United States Itondx aud Dia
mond at Lou); llruuclt.
There is now under arrest, at police headquar
ters, William Jackson, anat "Billy," alias "Pat
Malloy," the mont noted aud expert hotel-thief
at present in the country. From information
given our reporter by the police authorities, it
appears that "Billy" has been in the "hotel
bubiness" lor nearly twenty years, and there is
scarcely a large hotel in the United States that
has not suffered Irom his depredations. Jackson
is about thirty-eight years ot age, very intelli
gent and well educated, aud, from hi gentle
manly appearance aud suave manners, is a dan
gerous customer, and a terror to hotel-keeocrs.
Jackson was arrested under the following cir
cumstances: On the 1st of August the room of
Mons. G. Lamorcier. a French gentlemau, stay
ing at the Continental Hotel, Long Branch, N.
J., was entered by tnieves.aud $10,700 in ITnited
States Five-twenty bonds and $7000 worth of
diamond jewelry stolen. When the robbery was
discovered there was considerable excitement,
and a number of persons employed about the
hotel were arrested, as were several of tne musi
cians about the hotel, but they were subse
quently discharged, as no evidence could be
found to implicate them in the theft.
Monsieur Lamorcier came to this city and
gave information of the robbery a, the Inspec
tor's office. The detectives were given the mat
ter in charge, and one of the corps was des
patched to the hotel to make an examination.
Monsieur Lamoroier also gave a good descrip
tion ot two men who were seen hanging about
the place, and the description of one of the
men tallied so accurately with the appearance
oi Jackson, that he was arrested by Detectives
Elder and McCord, when seen on Broadway, on
Saturday last. He waa taken to headquarters,
and yesterday morniDg was arraigned before
Superintendent Kennedy, who desired him to
sit for his portrait. This he peremptorily de
clined. Mr. Kennedy said he was determined
to hsve his likeness to grace the Mulbeny Street
Art Gallery it he hod to send half a dozen stal
wart patrolmen with him to hold him by the
ears during the operation. Under these threats
Jackson sat for his portrait, and an excellent
likeness was obtained.
Subsequently Detective Elder took his prisoner
before Justice Dowliug, at the Tombs, and made
affidavit that Jackson was a fugitive from jus
tice, from Long Branch, Monmouth county, New
Jert-ey, where he is suspected of having stolen
the bonds and jewelry from Mons. Lamorcier,
on the 1st instant. Deponent further prayed
that Jackson may be held until the proper steps
can be taken to take him back to the Stale of
New Jersey for trial.
Captain Jourdan, of the Sixth Precinct, ap
peared, and also made an affidavit against Jack
son, setting forth that the accused is a fugitive
from the city of Harmburg, Pennsylvania,
where he is under indictment on a charge of
burglary. He is charged with having forced au
entrance to the premises of one Mr. Thomas, in
Hamsburg, and stole $0000 worth of jewelry.
Jackson was arrested at the time, and lodged in
prison, and subsequently liberated On bail,
which he forfeited, at.d tied to parts unknown.
On these affidavits Justice Dowling commit
ted the prisoner to await the anion of the New
Jersey and Pennsylvania authorities.
Jackson was taken back to police headquar
ters, and put in charge of the detectives. Super
intendent Kennedy telegraphed to all
of the precincts to notify the hotel
keepers and clerks to call at headquarters
and see "Billy." During the afternoon a
great number ft gentlemen called, and
Jackson was "shown up," much to his disgust
and chagrin. There Is every prospect that
Billy's career will be brought to an abrupt ron
ciusion ior some time at least. N. Y. World.

THE PRESIDENT'S VISIT.
Enthusiasm at the Baltimore
Depot.
The Merchants', Mechanics', and
Citizens' Turnouts.
DISPLAY OF THE MILITARY AND
THE FIREMEN.
Etc., Etc., Etc., Etc., Etc., Etc.
The great event of the day is the arnval of
the President In this city on his way through to
Chicago. The event is one ot etirriiig interest,
and is made the most of by those who are fond of
excitement and display. The greatest drawback
against the reception being a thorough and
complete one is the absence of the Mayor from
the city, and of some others who would add to
the weight of the representatives of our city.
The crowd did not commence to assemble as
early as was expected. Up to the hour of noon
the streets around the depot did not exhibit any
unusual commotion, aud judging from appear
ances, there did not appear to be anything
unusual about to happen. After that time,
hewever, the spectators began to assemble in
small knots of two or three together. The dif
ferent ideas of the contending political parties
were well ventilated, and it was amusing to
listen to the arguments ior and against our illus
trious visitor.
But amidst it all, In xplte of the political dif
ferences of opinion, there appeared a general
good-humored determination to accord to the
President a cordial and hearty welcome to our
city. The President lelt Washington in a
special train, two passenger and one baggage,
at 7'30 this morning, accompanied by Secretary
Howard and others of his Cabinet, and the
retinue announced in another coin mn.
In addition o these were Messrs. L. H. Go
bright and W. W. Warden, the correspondents
of the Associated Press.
The President and his party left Baltimore
this morning at 1020, and was' joined there by
Governor Swann and several officials.
At 1141 the President and party left Havre-de-Grace,
where Governor Swann and his party
left them and returned to Baltimore. There
was great enthusiasm expressed in Baltimore as
the President parsed through, but the time was
too limited to make any other demonstration as
he drove from one depot to the other, and left
Baltimore as soon as tho party were seated in
the care.
About noon the crowd at the Baltimore
Depot began to gather in force. The cars of the
Union Passenger Railway were crowded, and
began bringing new accessions constantly to the
gathering. Considerable remark was made by
many different persons of all political creeds
about tho absence of the Mayor, and comment
ing rather severely upon that circumstance.
It was also said that the same thiug occurred
when President Jackson visited this citv. the
Muvor being absent at that time.
(The President loft Wiliuinaton at 13 -46.) .
About 1 o'clock the scene in the neighborhood
of the depot became very interesting. The
different civic processions began to make their
appearance on the scene, livery available spot
was soon occupied. The expectant crowd, and
the great masses of "washed" and "unwashed,"
began to eret up their enthusiasm.
The dill'erent bands in attendance discoursed
some most excellent music. Soon after the
military, the Grey Reserves, under Captain
Loudenslager, the senior captain of thp regi
ment, and accompanied by BirgfeldV Brass
Bund, came on, the ground.
There was some considerable time expended
In marshalling the dilTeient bodies into order,
and much amusement was derived from the
Tailors' Association, who turned out in great
force.
As the time approached for the President's
arrival, the pent-up steam of the masses a-sem-bled
had to get vent, and they a nused them
selves in cheering, yelling, etc., all in the most
good-humored manner possible.
Towards two o'clock the crowd in the neigh
borhood of the depot, and all along the ex
pected route of the parade became very ereat.
The military, the firemen, and the civic bodies
turned out very strong. The United States
Council, O. U. A. M., were in full reeralia, and
carried in procession a full-rigged ship, repre
senting the Constitution.'
The military was under the command of
Brevet Brigadier General Lyle. A squadron of
the City Troop were formed, facing the entrance
to the Depot. Dressed in their picturesque uni
turesque uniform, they presented a very impres
sive appearance.
The National Guards, under Lieutenant-Colonel
W. A. Leecb, turned out in strong force, and
also the Gray Reserves, under Captain Louden
slager. There was a strong force of Marines,
numbering 200 strong, and presented an exceed
ingly neat and soldierly appearance.
The oflieers ot the navy attached to the
Philadelphia station were out in lnll uniform,
with Commodore Selfridge, the commandant of
the Navy Yard, at their head. The red shirts of
the fire department was a very pleasant feature.
There wete great numbers of private carriages.
In despite of the unfavorable appearance of
the weatner, mere appeared to be a general
turnout ot everybody who could pet away from
their places of business or could leave tuelr
houses. There were thousands of "fair women
and brave men" lining the streets, aud waiting
with anxious eyes lor the advent of the Presi
dent. Two o'clock P. M. The President has just
arrived, amid the entbdsiastic cheering of the
dense mass assembled to greet his arrival and
the music of the band.
The diffeeent bodies are all in line to escort
the President.
Wouldn't Adjourn to See the Presi
dknt. This morning, at ( the meeting of the
Bohrd of Brokers, a motion for adjournment
was made, to afford tho members an opportunity
ot participating in the reception of President
Johnson.
But few votes were given in the affirmative,
while the negative vote was almost unanimous.
So tho Board of Brokers didn't adjourn. They
are as incorrigible as the members of the Corn
Exchange.
Accident. A man named John Jarvia
got his hand caught in the cogs of some of the
machinery of Wetherill's lead works, atThirtieth
and Walnut streets, yesterday morning, and had
it crushed in a terrible manner. Mr. Jarvis
had a bob killed a short time aero by being run
over by the West Philadelphia Steam Fire
Engine.
Breach ok Oudinance. James Byrnes
was arrested yesterday by Officer Spence for ob
structing the hierhwav. He bad a hearlnir bpfnrp
Alderman Jones, who fined him for a breach of
ordinance.
Moral Suasion. Our old friend, B-jt.
Pr. Maunders, Is publishing his views on educa
tion. The doctor takes high ground. He
writes: "Love, advice, and evervthing else
embraced in the unjustly ridiculed term 'moral
suasion' produce as much ordr, industry, con
trntmont. nUectlon, and devotion as can be de
sired, and far ronrts than can be secured by any
otber means. All classical schools and collr ges,
except, perhaps, a few for the Incorrigible, must
yet. in the progress of improvement, dispense
with punishment In every lorm. The incorrigi
ble, wbom generous motives will not win over
not the one hundredth part of our youth
will be, in the good time coming, withdrawn
from seminaries quietly and without ceusura by
tbeir parents, through tho advice of professor,
and ptit into schools of correction ; or what, per
haps, Is better, disciplined by some suitable
kind of busine-is."
Row iar A Bkkb Shop. Samuel Scott
went into a beer shop ou Glrard avenue, above
Shacknmavon street, yesterday Siternoon, and
fretting tiel.t and boozy, was Imprudeut enough
to leave his pocket-book, containing $J5, on one
ot the tables. Some one made love to it and
carried it off. Scott then got into a quarrel
with the keeper ol the saloon, Mr. Rlehl, and
beat blm snd threatened to kill him. Officer
Bradfhnw went in, and on att -mpring to arrest
Scott ho was beaten, and only succeeded in
making the arrest after a severe struggle. Scott
is a notorious character, and has been in trouble
several times within the past few months. He
was held In $1000 hail bv Alderman Shoemaker.
Shovixg the Que kk, A new counterfeit
made its appearance yesterday. A man named
Samuel Mar.-den attempted to pass what pur
ported to be a live doilar note on the Essex and
Worcester Bank ot Saulsbury, Maryland. The
engraving on the note is pretty good, and well
calculated to deceive. Marsdeu presented the
note at the counter ot Smlck .t Furey's restau
rant, Sixth and Chenat street, aud was
promptly arrested. Alderman Beitler held him
lor a further hearing.
Another Bet.liqebknt. Thomas Shaw
is a man ol an exceeciincly pusnacious disposi
tion. He is also given to bad spirits, and under
their influence frequently eeti into trouble.
Durinn the "wee nmu' hours" of this morning he
got into a knock down argument with the bar
tender of a saloon at th" corner of Cadwalader
and Thompson streets and floored him. Ho was
taken into custody, and this morning Alderman
Shoemaker held him In $00 to answer.
An Unnattjbal Son. William Brophy
was arrested yesterday, on the charge of making
an assault on aud threateuine his lather. Some
time ago he was discharged Irom the employ of
bis father ( who has the charce of hiring laborers
on the Trenton Railroad), for drunkenness and
idleness. Yesterday, he threatened to kill him
for doing so. He was arrested, and held by
Alderman Cloud for a further hearing.
Nympiib on a Bkndkb. Lizzie Thomp
son and Clara Snyder made tne night hideou in
the neighborhood of Eighth and Chewniit streets
at a late hour last nisiit, bv getting into a very
noisy tight. There was a considerable amount
of shrieking, scratching, and hair pullinir done.
They were arrested, and this morning baa an
interview with Alderman Beitler, who fined
them for fighting and dismissed them.
A Pugnacious Man. resterday a rough,
rejoicing in the name of H. L. Maguire, amused
himself in the neighborhood of Eighth and
Race streets by knocking down an inoffensive
cittzen. Officer Wilkins, who was near by at
the time, promptly t"ok him into custody, ne
was held in $300 by Alderman Jones to keep the
peace.
The "Evening Hkbald." We cor
dially greet our new contemporary. The Even

auspices of Messrs. Charles Reiustein & Co.,
presents a very neat typographical appearance,
and the editorial department is well sustained.
We wish it every success.

tSPECIAL DESPATCHES TO TUB VESINO TEI.KORAr IT.
Washington. Aujrittt 21.
Tbe rrcsirlential party lelt Washington this
morniug by special cars, attached to the regular
730 train for Philadelphia. Secretaries McCul
loch. Browning, and Attorney-General Speoe!
were at the station to gee the party off.
The cncrlne detailed to draw the train wai
No. 265, and it was considered somewhat omi
nous by some superstitious people, that it wm
the same ppecial ensrine used to convey Presi
dent Lincoln lo moct the Rebel Cammisbl meis
at Hampton Road, and which afterwnrls took
his coipse from Washinf-rton on 1U way to Illi
nois. The engiue was gaily decorated with
flowers, and cheers were piven to the ditln
trulfhed party on thj departure of the train. At
Annapolis Junction the party will bo met by
Governor Swann, of Maryland, who will escort
them to the Pennsylvania line.
The party will be absent from Washington
about fourteen days, aud will return somewhat
leisurely by another route. The White House
will be kept open durin-r the absence of the
President, but It has suddenly lost all Interest t
the crowd of office-seekers who usually loaf
about there.
The statement In the New York Tribuji that
Iwis Clophane. Collector of Internal Revenue
for this district, has been notified to vacato his
office, is not true, though there Is a g;-eat eifort
being made to effect his removal.
The story aeain started, that Assistant Secre
tary of the Tretisury Chandler has been re
moved is untrue, but it is probable he will sooa
resign.
Major-Ocneral Tillson. who has just arrived
in Washington from his home in Maine, denies
that he has received any despatch, as stated,
summoning him to relieve General Howard as
Commissioner of the Freedmen's Bureau. Gene
ral Howard also denies the report that he is
about to resign, and intimates tbat he shall wait
to be removed.
