Thb Capturi? of Two Noted Burglars.
I Mt night an arrest wss marie by the Fourth
JMslrlct I'ol Ice, under charge of Lieutenant
JJowers, of two of the most notorious burglars
and safe-blowing experts who have at various
periods created excitements In this community
by their operations. About ten minutes before
10 o'clock, three men, who had been JoungluK
about the Vicinity of Sixth and Cherry, and
taking a suspicious coup W ail of the bnlldlnKS
about, were seen going up to, and unlocking the
door of, and coolly walking into the ostabllsh
ment of Mr. Samuel Croft, at No. 52tt Cherry
street, used as a foundry. Now it so happened
that a knowing colored barber, who occupied
the eeoiul ktory of the anjoiulng build
ing, occupied almost entirely by Mr. Samuel A..
Oolladay, a lithographer, whs looking out of a
Window. Knowing the proprietors of the brass
foundry, and those with whom lay the right of
ingress and egress, he became assured that
something wrong was going on, and started
down stairs to inform Ollicer Holmeyard that
burglars were at work, tiivlng tins Informa
tion he started down to the tourtta
I'olloe Station, and informed Lieutenant
Ilowers of the suspicious transaction.
The Lieutenant started for the scene,
having efficient aid In Sergeant Bartholomew
and Officers Odenhelmer, Marlln, Smith, and
lour or five others. Stationing his men to cut
off all retreat, the Lieutenant and Officers
Holmeyard and Marlln went up stairs to a rear
window. Soon the scraping of feet gave notice
that the burglars had ascertained the unwel
come presence of the officers, and were trying
to make olf. They came out of a rear door and
tried to scale the wall. Henry Ualllgood, alias
llalllbut, tried to escape In this manner, when
Ollicer Holmeyard cried out that he would Are,
and did so, the ball striking a brick wall, ami
glancing back, struck Ualllgood upon the
thumb. lie cried out lustily '! surrender," and
run into an outhouse where Otlleer Holmeyard,
after making a prodigious leap down, found
him and took him In custody.
In the meantime. Officer Martin had grappled
and arrested William Devoe, burglar No. 2, lu
the rear part 01 the first story. Tne third bur
glar, licing more athletic, scaled the wall,
Jumped Into the yard adjoining Creintzberg's
cutlery stoie, and finding the door looked,
dashed headlong through the window, and like
a flush weut through Ue building, aud out into
Sixth street, and escaped. Securing their pri
soners, theofll' era commenced a tour of inspec
tion, and discovered all preparations made for
demolishing the large safe of the establish
ment. Scattered upon the lloor were three
large jimmies, steel wedges, finely pointed bits,
brace, augers, skeleton keys of all kinds, a
dark lantern, a slow match ready for insertion
Into the safe, a flask of powder, and blow pipe
wherewith to blow the powder into the hole to
be made In the safe door In fact, comprising
the finest kit of tools ever captured with any
arty of burglars in this city. Kverythlng
oolced like work when this olllclol interrup
tion occurred. William Devoe Is a noted pro
fessional "cracksman," and his exploits area
theme of universal discussion when a safe has
been mysteriously demolished. It was only
lately that he was put under 83000 bonds to
keep the peace. The parties are held at the
Central Station, to await a hearing this after
noon.
The River Catastrophe. The following
card has been handed us for Insertion by
Messrs. S. & W. Welsh:
The loss of three valuable lives by the sudden sink
ing ol a portion of our wharf the saddest occurrence
ot our long business career demands some explana
tion. The Port Wardens gave the general plan of the
wHarf with the size and location of Blulces. Mr. Strick
land Kueass. Hie Cliy Surveyor, furnished the details
and supervised the work, which was completed a year
since by Messrs. J. & C. Lownsberry, experienced
what f builders. We sent for the buildrrs to remedy
some Inequalities in the surface of the ground; and
only an hour before the sad accident Mr. Lowaiberry,
having examined the wharf, assured our chief clerk
that It was as solid as the city street.
It is probable that the current was driven violently
tbrouRh the sluice by the outer pier, cutting away tbe
foundation ot tbe Inner pier, and thus causing the loss
ot life aud property.
It In consoling to us to know that the portion of the
wharf that sank had just been examined by an expert,
and bad not one-third or us usual load, and not one
tentb of the weltrbt it should have borne.
We are not warranted in censurlnir the skilful men
to whom we Intrusted tbe construction and supervi
sion of this work; bin the system of sluicing lu deep
water aud rapid currents may need some modification,

Philadelphia, July 81, ls7.
A Horse Case. Jacob Gunsenhouser was
before ltecorder Eueu this morning, charged
with selling a man a broken-winded horse for
$180. It appears that a man named Frank Evans
had been employed by Gunsenhouser to buy a
horse for a man, receiving $10 for bis services.
The horse was purchased by him and tried by
tbe buyer previous to handing over the money.
A short time after be discovered the borse had
tbe heaves. Evans came and told him so. He
went to Mr. Gunsenboaten and told him so,
and he offered to pay blm $135, promising to
pay tbe remainder in two days. This the pro
secutor refused to receive, stating that he
wanted the whole okiiis money, $180. Gunsen
houser did not rnafte his appearance in two
days, and he was arrested. Tbe bargain took
place last May. The case was continued until
Monday next.
At thb Academy op Music this evening the
Imperial Mikado Red Dragon Japanese Troupe
will appear in a splendid bill of attractions. In
corjuuctlon with the truly wonderful Arabian
troupe of tumblers, serialise, and Jugglers.
"Liitle All Right" and 'Dan Webster" continue
to be tbe favorites, and tbe great sword-ladder
feat is a matchless wonder. The rope-walking
Is equally astonishing, and the grace with
which the feats are performed is really charm
ing. One of the young lady members of the
Japanese troupe pertorms a balancing act In
mid air that is of a most fearful character, and
tbe choral prayer to Allah by the Arabs Is
weird and beautiful. Tickets and seats can be
obtained at Trumpler's, Seventh and Chesnut
streets, and at the Academy of Music.

How Thby Got Their Waoes. Two colored
domestics, named respectively Hester and E mi
line Smith, resided with a family on Hansom
street, above Eleventh. After working for some
time, their pay, for some cause or other, was not
lortucoming, so tney stoie various tuDriosand
garments, puwned them, deducted from the
receipts thereof their alleged lust dues, and
with peculiar honesty sent tbe pawnbroker's
ticket and the residue of the money reoeived to
their late employer, as mucbus to say, "We
have paid ourselves, and with, oommeuda'de
honesty return your dues." The Recorder
thought not, and held them in $800 ball to
answer.

Boeus Reporters. It has become a com
mon custom for many young men to fiilselv
pass themselves ofT as reporters of the press, for
the sake of securing admission to punlio en
tertainments, meetings, and even to the scene
of accidents. At the caving In of Welsh's
wharf there were crowds of these bogus re
porters, upwards of forty, some of whom as
Mimed the name of Tuk Evening Tklkijhapu.
Oftentimes when the resrulnr reporters make
their appearance, they are told that the paper
wmcn uiey serve is already represented, and
are delayed or refused admission. This Is an
evil which should be rectified. Every regular
reporter snouia nave some means or litonlltl
catlon, and all others should be treated as im
postors. Building Permits for thb Month oy July.

senber contraillciea lilm. Merseiinl Dye also said
that the lady he ipoKo to was of middle sue. aud wns
wrapped In a shawl. This lady. M r. Merrick con
tended, was not Mrs, Surratl, lor M r. Lambert, a lady
whoso character Is n t questioned, aud who bad no
motive to speak aturht but the truth, testi
fied to holding wilb a Boldler the lden-
IibI conversailou which Sergeaot Drt
alleges be hsd with Mn, Snrrstt, All the feature,
time, and circuniniRncei corre-Dond. It Dye
Bin li a conversation with M rs. Surrsti, and ano'.linr
KoKller Had a similar conversation witn Airs. Lam
ht rt, It is certainly a reniHrknble coincidence. Ho
did not think the Jury would convict tbe prisoner
upon such testimony as tbst of Sergeant Dye. The
other witness who suys be saw Surralt at the
theatre on the day of the asissHlnHtlon Is Mr.
Rhodes, who says he was attracted hy curiosity,
and entered the theatre, and he there saw a man
whom he now Identifies as the prisoner. Mr. Merrick
recited Mr. Rhodes' testimony. Tills witness, he con-
. .... .1 ... I ....... ........... .4 I ... ...f hu.allla I. at In ..r.... .. m
sworn by Kay hold, that a man could not have 're-
trealea lrom one oox to ins omer, as tuere was out
one box : there was no place where the man
could have retreated to, unless he came out by the
door that Rhodes entered. Rhodes says that all
wahoniei: J. Mob and others contradict mm, aud s iy
ari'htaisul whs going on at the hour mentioned by
Rhodes. Again, Rhodes swears tne curtain wasdon ti,
while l.iunh. who was there painlinii all day, says the
curtain wss not down, and It bus been stiown tlutt It
was not the cuitom to Keep tne curtain down during
the aay. It Is also shown tbat the doors of the theatra
w ere lucked , aud that there was no admission during
thedny 'Hose two witnesses. Dye and Rhodes, are
the wily two that bring Mir rut i near the tlientre, and
the Juiy must conclude that neither are reliable.
The next witness to surratt's presence her.) Is Mr.
Vanderpool, who says he saw surrstt In a concert
hull. Jle told ins story straight enough, but there
was not a juior who Old not see In the man's face
that ho was not telllnir the truth.and alter the close of
his testimony be mr.kes a remark which evidenced
the chaiacter ol a blackguard, alter he had given the
testimony of a perjurer. To recall Vanderpool's
testimony, It Is shown that there was no round table
in that hall that afternoon. Was It at some other
hall thunl that deeiguated by Vanderpool thst
he saw Surratt? It Is beneath the dignity of the
court to lurlher speak of the testimony of such a
man.
dishing ana coteman say tney saw surratl talk to
Booth on that day, but their testimony Is met by a
singular circumstance, and it Seems at Ibougn Provi
dence enabled tbe oefene to meet by direct proof
What was put in evidence oy ine prosecution, in tins
Instance, Matthews shows that it was he who was
talking to itoolh.and that It was not Surratt. Urllio
lliliiks nesaw ourrati at w uiaru uotei, nut tie is hy
no means positive: he does not swear certainly.
There Is no proof so difficult as of Identity, and bow
cuu the lace ol a man se.oi In a note' two yars ro
casually be now positively recognize,!? Features make
but siigbt impression until tney become uuriea in the
liumau mind. Conversation, manner, deportment,
bearing, stamp the recollection of a man upon tne
memory, but tbe features cannot m ike so grat an
Impression Another witness upon whom tney rely is
Kauindt-11 who says that, on the morning of April 15,
he met a horseman who was very anxious about
passing the pickets, and who sneered when asked If
he bud heard about the President's assassination, and
he testifies that he thinks Surralt Is the man, and
wh. n the prisoner turns around he says he nas seen
his back before. This evidence Is loo ridiculous to be
entertained.
Another witness Is John Lee, who has been over.
whelmed with 1 lam v. He (Mr. Merrlc'O referred to
Lee as on link In the chain tbat Mil el Is raiu In the
nostrils ot honest men, and he Is a specimen as show
ing the men of corruption brought here by ibe Go
vernment. Wood, the colored Ourber who sys lie
shaved Surratt, Is another of their main reliances.
He says McLuugtuin was wun nurratt, without
money, bul tbe defense have stiown that MoLnughlln
was not at the barber shop, and Wood is coutraoloted

m rnlng It Is well known a barber sbop wol

tlx one special individual as being ai his hIiod at a
p-rfcu ar hour. Here was a place, a rendezvous, aud
crowds going through tbe same ooera'l n but afier
toe lapse ot two years. Surratt Is Identified as the mau
who was shaved. But thee inclusive answer to Woo l's

THE
LATE CATASTROPHE
MOUNT DESERT.
AT
gome Further Details Last Words of
Rev. It. O. Chase No Bodies Recovered
Yet Sir. Chase's Little Daughter' Con
dition, te.
A correspondent of the Boston Traveller,
writing Itom Mount Desert, Maine, under date
f last Saturday, says:
The most distressing casualty of Wednesday
last, by which a party of seven persons were
drowned, cast a gloom over the entire commu
nity. The names of these have alrealy ooen
forwarded by telegraph, but some additional
particulars may not be uninteresting. They
were all guests lrom thesume house, as were
tbe parly in the other boat that sailed with
them, five of tbe number. Mr. and Mrs.
Chase, Miss Houpt. Miss N. Tazewell, and J. W.
Harrnar, Ksq., were from Philadelphia; Mr.
and Mrs. Clark were from Framingloii, Mas
sachusetts. Mr. Holon Hoblnson, the mau lu
churns of the boat, belonged to Southwest
Harbor, and is there highly spoken of. They
were a pleasant aud happy compituy, and wera
enjoying themselves to the utmost. Ths last
words spoken were by Mr. Chaso, who stood In
the centre of the boat, with his hand upon the
mast, "Ob, this is glorious."
In a moment the squall struck them, and
they were burled lu the ocean depths. Verily,
lu the midst of life we ure lu detun." Tuo.se
who were In the other boat saw the disaster
with feelings tbat eau better be Imagined than
(iesui lbed, but they were two miles aud more to
leeward, and could iu no way reach the spot.
Miss Bin lie, of Kramingham, who was rescued,
bas recovered, but Is still here. Iter life was
uaveti by an ear which she clutched, and by
which she was buoyed up till help could reach
her. Other bodies were seen floating on or Just
below the surface, but it was impossible to
reach Hum.
The boat weut down stern foremost, dragging
the smaller bout in tow with her, and disup.
peaied almost Instantly. The most strenuous
tllotis have since been made to recover the
bodies, but without success. Tne water Is forty
or fifty lathoms deep, and the curreut is very
strong. It is hardly probable they will ever be
recovered till the sea shall be compelled to give
up its dead.
Mr end Mrs. Chase had with them at the
hoielallitlegirl, eight years of age, one of a
large family of children, who was left for the
day in charge of the lady of the bouse. Up to
this lime she has not been Informed of the lrre
purable loss she has sustained, it was thought
best not to tell her, till friends who were at
once telegraphed to could come for her. It was
I tillable to ste her so bright and joyous, and
now what sorrow was lu reserve for her.
Mr. Mannar was one of two brothers, who,
wlih their mother, were visiting tue island.
Moth were intending to gi in the boat, but at
the isst moiiioDt, theyouuger decided to remain
with the mother. The dlsiraotlug grief at the
loeB of one son was in a measure counter
balanced by gratitude that the oilier was still
spared. Friends of those who were lost have
since come to the Island; and a reward of fifty
dollars Is offered lor the recovery of any of the
bodies. ii
