Lost His Grip The special correspondent of the Albu- querque Citizen from Washington gives the following of local interest: Mr. Utter, of Silver City, one of the delegates, had his valise stolen from his room in Willard’s hotel, which con- tained a $50 suit of clothes and some valuable papers worth several times the price of the clothes. The thief robbed several others in this and other hotels, then went to Baltimore where he was plying his vocation and was nabbed by the police. Mr. Utter will get back his valise and part of his clothes, but there is some doubt about getting back his valuable papers.
