THEFTS ON BOARD SHIP

A Young Englishman Arrested for Rifling Staterooms.

Numerous complaints have been recently made to Superintendent Murray concerning thefts which have occurred on the European steamers on their departure from this port. Detectives yesterday arrested, on a charge of theft, a young Englishman named Henry Pratley on board the Savannah steamship Chattahoochee. Pratley claims to have been employed as a waiter at several prominent hotels in this city. In his possession when arrested the officers found three gold watches, two articles of jewelry, and $41 in cash. A portion of this property has been identified by Martha Bell, the stewardess of the White Star steamer Germanic, as having been stolen from her stateroom about three weeks ago.

The first clue to Pratley's whereabouts was furnished to the detectives by Pratley using an order on a photographer, which was contained in a sachel stolen by him from the steamship Aurania, to have his own pictures taken. He gave the photographer his address as No. 92 Bank-street, Newark, where he had a furnished room. His photograph was given to the detectives, who yesterday followed him from the ferry house, when he came over to this city, to the steamer Chattahoochee, and arrested him. He admitted his guilt and told the officers where he had pawned more of the stolen property. In his trunk, which was brought from his Newark lodgings to Police Headquarters last night, were found several clocks and other property which is believed to have been stolen by him. Owners are wanted. Some of these articles, Pratley says, were stolen from the City of Rome. Pratley was locked up in a cell at Police Headquarters.
