WEALTH IN A pINCUsaIoN.
Two Women Rob q Safe OF Nearl,
$4,000
From The Philadelphia Record.


When DR.. Montgomery, a dealer in herbs
and patent medicines at No. 2)3 North Ninth
street, returned to his office yesterda,
morning, after a months visit to New
York, he found that his safe had been
robbed of S3,995 in money during his alb
sence. He at oncs reported his loss to Chief
of Detectives Wood, and before evening
Detectives and Crawford had recovered the
bulk OF the money. and the two confessed
culprits were lodge in cells at the Central
station.
There were two keys to the safe in which
the money was kept, the doctor having one,
and Miss Makpeace, his housekeeper, who
carried on the business in his absence, held
the other. Suspicion Immediately rested on
her and a friend, Miss Lizzie Anderson, who
had been staying with her, and after look
ing into the case somewhat, the detective
arrested the two women.
They at first denied the crime, but Miss
Anderson finally told Magistrate Pole that
there had only Teen about 81, 900 In the safe,
ard she volunteered to produce that if thew
were released. The detectives would not
release them, but Miss Anderson, who is
only about % years old and quite good
looking, went TO the book store at No, 2C5
North Ninth street, accompanied by Detec-
tive Geyer, and asked the proprietor for a
morning. A handsome red silk cushion, or.
namented with hand-painted flowers, was
produced and handed to the de ectiye, who
tore it open and found 81, AGA snugly hidden
away in the inside.
The girl said that was all the money the
had taken, but DR.. Montgomery was DOS
tive that there had been $2,995 IN the safe.
Lizzie then went into the mouse and pro-
duced S34S so in gold and notes. The
women were taken to the Central Station
and when searched pocket was feun
under Miss Anderson's skirt and in il
| $163 SO and n new gold watch. Mis-
| Makpeace had $40 concealed about her
bringing the total up to within about $40 OF
the amount taken, and the missing none
had evidently been spent for the watch
although Miss Anderson commended that il
had been given to her by friend.
The women subsequently confessed tbs
whole story, and told how they had tried
in vain to open the safe with the key helc
by Miss Makepace, and had finally callec

senting that it belonged TO them.

Corn Crop Injured.

WASHINGTON. Sept. 12.-The national
crop report shows the injury to the corn crop
reported last month is intensified by con.
tinuance of the drouth in August until the
rains came, but too late for full recovery.
Average 20. against 1913 last month, the
lowest average since 1881. The returns
of the condition of winter wheat at the
time of harvesting is less favorable than
those of July l. As far as harvesting has
progressed the results are generally disap-
pointing. July average, 1872; present aver
age 1875. The general average of spring
wheat is also reduced from $50 to 7O.8.
The average for wheat, both kinds, is 75b.
In 1883, September. the average for both,
H. 1t was Is in 1881.
The yield of spring wheat is unusually
variable in the Dakotas, ranging from high
Yields to five bushels and less per acre. On
the Atlantic coast there is an Improvement
Cured in New York, Ohio, Illinois and all
the northwestern states. and in some others
of less Importance. Crops are late in east
ern states. requiring maturing weather
throughout September. They will also be
late and variable in development in New
states returned a relatively high condition
impaired locally from effects of midsum-
mer drought and later storms. In Tennes
see drought reduced the condition too loy
for subsequent recovery. Tho Ohio vale,
and Missouri valley report protracte,
drought and low condition. While tn
rains of the last two weeks of August wer
beneficial they have not always restored tn
losses of the first half of the month. III
lowest condition is in Kansas, though som
eastern counties make good returns. Tn
Dakotas and Nebraska are little higher
The crop is late and will require as muc
time to mature on the latitude of forty Dc
Rrees as for earlier varieties grown on tn
line of forty-tWo degrees.
