Negrvee Admit Thee She Ransacked

' The mystery of the ransacking of
tn noma of city .Treasurer Arthur
VVearn during hU absence from the
city, , was 'made clear, yesterday by
the confession of Settle' Moreheaa.
colored, that the burglary night bo
laid at her door. The negress is but
n years or age and was a trusted
servant at the homo of the city of
ficial, being placed 10 charge of in
Keys to the house during tne absence)
of Mr. and Mrs. Wearn, who were
in New York at the time that their
residence was ransacked. Mr. Wearn
atated yesterday that he would not
posecute the girl.
The confession came about through
questions which were asked the ser
vant by Mrs. Wearn. who had ar
rived at the conclusion that the
ransacking of the house was her
work. This suspicion was strength
ened by the mysterious reappearance
each day of articles wnlch had been
stolen at the time of the theft. The
girl had evidently become frightened
at her crime and was endeavoring
to have the matter hushed by means
of restoring the missing property to
Its rightful owners.
The negress repeated her statement
to Chief Chrlstenbury concerning her
breach of trust, and stated that aha

extremely surprised at the turn which
the affair had taken.
It was upon his return from New
York several weeks past, that the
city treasurer found his home in
great disorder from the visit of an un
invited guest. Clothea were plied in
hopeless confusion upon the floors of
the various rooms, and there were
evidences upon the dining-room table
that the visitor had eaten a leisurely
and hearty meal. Whlla many draw
ers had been opened during the
search, the thief had refrained from
any attempts to open a receptacle
which was found locked. A largo
amount of Jewelry was in this man
ner saved from th clutches of th
Intruder. An open window tended
to show that the thief had used this
form of entrance, and it was upon
this supposition that the local police
department worked for some time.
Suspicion was finally directed against
the trusted servant, however, and
she has been under surveillance for
some time.
