A BAND OF NEGRO BURGLARS In a Fair Way to End Their Thefts
 For a Tinae.

In a Fair Way t0 End Their Theftg
 For 8 Tinae.
 ST. LOUIS, April 22.-For some months past band of organized negro burglars have been making almost nightly raids upon citi- zens of the City of Mexico in northern Mis- seuri, breaking into residences and business houses and stealing anything they could lay hands on. Last night nearly every sus- picious negro in town was arrested. Their houses were searched and all kinds of dry goods, clothing, knives, jewelry, watches. pistols, etc., were recovered. George Morti- rner, chief of the gang, and number of others are now in jail, and Mortimer made confession in which he stated that G. Eau cett fired the shot that killed Samuel Apgar, the old man who was brutally assaulted and killed on his door step last Tuesday morning. Faucett is still at large, but officers are on his trail and the sheriff has offered two hum dred dollars reward for him. The city is greatly excited over the developments and the probabilities are that Faucett will be lynched when captured. At one o'clock this morning the safe in the store of Botts 6 Quisberry, at Santa Fe, in Monroe county, was blown open and robbed of $500 in mon- ey and ST 900 in notes.

A NAVAL RESERVE
Favored By the Powers That Be
 Guc Navy nanartmanf.

Favored By the Powers That Be IR
 Our Navy Department.
 WASHINGTON, April 22.-Secretary Whit ney has written Representative Whittehorne of the House naval affairs committee a letter favoring legislation for the establishment of navalr eserve: No nation maintains stand ing army and navy adequate to it's defense or the maintenance of it's rights in war. All res ly upon reserves and upon the preparation previously made for expanding quickly from peace to war basis. The maintenance of a naval reserve, he asserts, is a measure of economy. Under such system 8 body of men supporting themselves by ordinary civil pursuits is enrolled and maintained by the government sufficiently for it's purpose in the event of war at comparatively small ex- pense. England maintains with an annual expenditure of less than Sc 000, ,000 an aux Hilary naval force twice as large as the entire American navy, The suggestion that & naval reserve should be established, the Secretary continues, has awakened the greatest interest in all parts of the country and already more than one State has indicated a determination to coop crate with the government in this effort to secure naval reserve, and the department is in almost daily receipt sof resolutions of
 
 try expressing the greatest anxiety that the necessary steps to secure reserve should be taken. He adds: The necessity for naval reserve has become more inn perative with the changes which have come about in the art of war. In former times, when the implements of war were sim pie in construction and the ships were handled wholly by sail, the seafaring class were available for immediate incorporation into the naval force; now seamanship plays an unimportant part, the ship is handled be- low deck and no man is fit to be engrafted into the naval force who has not previously been trained to knowledge of the modern implements of war and naval tactics. It may therefore be said there is no longer any naval reserve in the merchant marine. More than this preparation which has not been previously made cannot be extempo- rized The speed and power of modern navies are such that fortnight is sufficient for European power to concentrate an abs solutely overpowering force where months were formerly required, and hence the only time for preparation is now in time of peace.
 The Secretary concludes his letter as fol- lows: In the judgment of the department it is both necessary and economical that the should have in reserve fleet of auxiliary merchant ships previously prepared with the necessary fittings for instant con- version into cruisers which would be avail- able upon moments notice for use by the government in time of war.

A MILITARY FUNERAL. Burial of Henry J. Eng1ehardt Y ester.
 day.

The remains of Henry J. Englehardt were buried from his late residence on State street near Hamilton street yesterday afternoon. Rev. MT. Sawyer of St. Paul's ofieiated. Out of respect to the memory of the decease, who was ex-member of the City Guard, the company attended his funeral in full uniform. The Second regiment band, which escorted the funeral procession, played solemn dirges as the company marched with reversed arms and slow time from the house to the Ever green cemetery. Captain John Gutt, Lieu- tenants Miller and Schaffner were with the company. Several members of the Sarsfeld Guard, wko were intimate friends of the de- ceased, were with the City Guard in full uniform.
 The following members of the brigade were pallbearers: Corporals Brill and Thompson and Private Getsye, of the City Guard; Sergeants J. O. Bailey, J. B. Cowles and William Blevins, of the Germania Guard of Hartford. Stahl & Hegel were the un- dertakers. Although young Englehardt was an ex-member he had not lost his interest in the welfare of his company, in consequence of which he was much respected by his mili- tary and other friends. He was loving and devoted son and will be mourned by many friends. It is believed that the seeds of the disease of which he died are due to cold he contracted while in camp at Niantic during the rainy week in camp two years ago. The City Guard gave magnificent floral tribute from Diekerman's in honor of their comrade. It was large pillow on which was eco. B, 2d Reg't," under which was 8 scroll with "C.
