THE GIRL GAVE WARNINGS TO BOTH.
Bloody Sequel to Daring Jeweiry
Robbery In Pennsylvania.
Chief Detective Clikinson Shot Dead,
Another Wounded.
While the Robber Took Advantage Of
theSmoke and Fled.

PTTTsBURG, Pa, March 21.-A shooting
affair occurred In a house at Peters Run,
near McKeesport. at Z o'clock tonight that
resulted in the killing of one detective, the
serious wounding of another and the slight
wounding of two policemen and q woman.
The shooting is the SEQUEL Of bold burglary
that occurred at Homestead one evening
six weeks ago. A girl named Laura Hill en-
tered Smiths jewelry store at Homestead
aud began pricing various articles Of jewell
ry. While the ieweler was In conversation
with the girl three men. who had forced an
entrance from the rear, struck him down
and bound him. The gang then cleaned out
$500 worth Of jewelry and cash. Detective
Gilkinson was given charge of the case and
the girl was arrested In Harrisburg with a
suspicious lot OF jewelry on her person, and
was brought to McKeespoft jail where she
Deached on her pals. Acting on her instruc-
tions tonight Chief Detective Gllklnson, with
four others, drove quietly across the river to
Peters Run. Reaching the house Of the
leader In the robbery, A. b. Budd. alias Fit
zimmOns, they found that the girl had
warned Budd. for when the officers threw
open the door Budd stood In the room chang
Ing his clothes. The moment he saw Gilkin-
son he threw up his revolver and fired, the
bullet entering the mans head, killing him
instantly. Detective Murphy leaped over
his PROSTATE form and engaged in a fierce
fight with Budd. Budd emptied one rey0l-
yer and his wife, WHO was In the room, ran
to his side with another Mnrphy, though
badly wounded, had emptied his revolver,
aud STOPPING to the dead body Of the chief
drew his revolver and renewed the fring.
He was firing blndly into the smoke how
ever, while the burglar centered all his
shots toward the door. Suddenly the wom-
an screamed and with curse Budd planted
bullet in Murpby's breast, who fell back
over Gilkinsons body. During the panic
that seized the policemen Budd threw some
clothes over his arm and escaped. Pat Muir
ply was shot In the forehead, chin and
breast, though not fatally, while the woman
received short In her arm, and two police
men were slightly wounded.

Campaigning In Favor OF the Ameri-
can OK.

I CHICAGO, March 22.-Sensationally large
purchases of cattle that have been made in
Canada during the past week by American
capitalists were brought to light here today
as the first complete public knowledge Of
the results Of the mastery International
campaign that has been quietly but effective
ly waged by Secretary of Agriculture Rusk.
The object Was to afford relief to the Ameii-
can cattle growers by opening up markets
abroad, and according to the statements Of
one OF the largest dealers In Chicago the sue
cess has already been attained while the
much greater widening of the foreign outlet
now close at hand for Canadian
purchases, 1t appears are simply In the
nature Of preliminary tactics to secure un-
restricted entry Of American clttle into
Great Britain. Canadian cattle though in
feriOr to the American products are legally
unfettered by British enactments and the
Americans who have just bought some i'm
mense Canadian herds propose TO utilize the
Canadian animals to tamiliarizs the people
rural England, Scotland and Wales with
beef from this side Of the Atlantic. This
Canadian venture Is certain TO result in loss
TO the American Interested. but they arc
confidently counting on Tecouplng them
selves when under the plans laid down by
Secretary Rusk American beeves are freely
Introduced and slaughtered at will through
out Great Britain. AT present American
live stock can only be landed
or killed at three ports, and thai. too, under
harrassing restrictions. That the Rusk plan
will accomplish its purpose in Queen Victo-
ria's dominions the results already reached
through him in France. Germany and Meth
erlands leave no doubt. to say nothing Of the
fact that the essential features OF the plan
that has now just been formally embodied In
the United States statutes as the federal meat
inspection law months ago. it is learned tbat
Secretary Rusk put to work on an expert
mental scale exactly the same inspection
provided for in the bill. His agents inspect
ed certain shipments and certified
the animals to be as sound as
the American dollar. Against this certif-
cate the authorities at Paris, Antwerp aud
Hamburg have been unable to maintain the
honored pretense that cattle being Ameri-
can were, as matter of course, diseased.
Beginning December 20, six different ship
ments have been landed up to date at Ham
burg. aggregating 1907 heads. The ship
ments to Paris, 13 In number. commenced
arriving August and now has reached the
totol OF 4681 head. Antwerp has received Is
cconsignments, numbering altogether 1922
head. Great Britain Is now the market and
stronghold toward the capture of Which Is
being bent all the surplus energy Of the
American cattle growers, led bY Secretary

issued the following circular letter:
Letters are frequently received at the depart

many csses where the local law prohibits public
persons who claim to do lbusiness under at least
among many good citizens that the United States
government does, in fact, issue such licenses,

the business is carried on. No sembance Of per-

any place contrary to local legislation. To make
clear this purpose respecting state and ocdl laws
