Not long afterwards some of the neighbors discovered that somebody was in the honse. Information was thereupon sent to police headquarters, and an officer was sent to look into the matter. He went into the . house and found a young cdonwi man named 'John Merritt under one of the bedsl with a razor in bis possession, while a large rasp or file was found by the side of an open trunk By this time a large crowd had collected around the . bouse. The officer removed Merritt from the house and turned him over to a man . standing outside,' but before this person could get his hand in Merritt 's collar he broke away-from him and ran. The officer and others - pursued, and he was found lying flat on his face un der the piazza of a dwelling a short dkv tance off. He was arrested and . taken to the guard house,' 1 where he will await a hearing before Mayor Hall this morning. - Merritt Was' 'raised, on - Capt.
