Exciting Encnunter.

CHICAGO, April 3.-An exciting
hand-tO-haud encounter for Sl5OJ
worth OF diamonds occurred today in
a room at the Palmer House. 4
young man registered Sunday under
the name Of Ralph Allen. Today
he sent to several jewelry stores,
asking that some diamonds be sent
for inspection, saying that he was
laid up with a sprained ankle. Sales
man Bigler was sent from Hyam X
Co. 3 to make inquiries, and found
Allen apparently all right. He was
still suspicious, however, and when
he returned with the gems had n
porter stationed outside the room
door. After discussing the proposed
purchase several moments, Allen
grasped n heavy cane and felled
Bigler to the floor.
The salesman struggled up and
grappled with the ruflian, mean
while yelling to the porter. The
latter, however lost his wits, and
when Allen broke away and ran
down the hall, allowed him TO get
past. To persons who attempte to
stop Allen, he shouted: "Catch that
insane manin and pointed back.
Timekeeper Dregg was not fooled
however, and captured Allen. Pa
pers found on his person indicate
that he came from Washington, and
that possibly his right name is Geo.
a. Pierce. He refuses TO disclose
his identity, saying that this IS the
first time he was ever Ia trouble,
and charging It to liquor. He does
not want has folks to know it. Sales
man Bigler has n severe scalT
wound, but he is not seriously
hurt.

The Prohibition Law.

.WAsHINGToN, April SIN an
interview today regarding the anti
prohibition movement in Iowa, First
Assistant Postmaster General Clark
son said: "rhe prohibition law has
had seven years OF trial, and while
il proved an admirable law for the
agricultural counties and smaller
towns, it has failed to find public
opinion TO enforce IL in the larger
cities and in the counties on the
Mississippi River, which are largely
settled by European birth. IL is an
open-fact that it cannot be enforced
in such localities without State
constabulatOry, which the temper Of
the people would never permit. The
republican party has never been
united on the measure. AS many
as fifty or sixty thousand repuiiii-
cans opposed it, but they went right
along with the party, willing 10 see
the experiment tried. Now that IL
has been tried seven years and failed
in part, they insist that the law lie
amended so rs 10 give prohibition 10
50 per cent Of Iowa, where public
opinion favors ami enforces il; but
that some other method OF regulat-
ing the traffic be given to 20 per
cent Of the State where experience
shows that il can never be enforced.
"The demand Of yesterdays con-
ventiOn for silent platform will
not be successful. 1t is not the tenn
per of the Iowa people to be silent
on any question. The present legis-
lature should, in my judgment,
modify the law rs demanded by ex-
perience and actual trial. The sug-
gestion for another vote on the con-
stitutional amendment docs not
meet the question. Seven years Of
experiment should he followed 10y
action. Besides, do not believe ii
right 10 vote anything Of an expert
mental character into the Constitu-
ton. All good people wish 10 reach
such legislation as will be nearest
right and most repressive Of the
liquor traffic, and, if possible, de-
structive of il, hut common sense
must rule in this as in all other at
fairs of men"
DIES MONIES, Ia, April 3.-The
executive committee Of the Pro-
hibition Republican Conference will
this evening present at n senators
caucus, calling attention 70 yester-
days resolutions, the depletion ia
the party on account Of prohibition
and urging immediate relief in the
way of a modification Of the present
law.
