A NEW EXpREss pEAL


United states Displacos Adams in the ie-
high Valley.
The United States Express Company
announced Monday that it has eXecut-
ed lease with President Mcleod, of
the Reading Railroad Company, by
which the express company secures
the right to do business on the entire
Reading and Lehigh Valley Railroad
systems for period of ten years.
Heretofore the United States Express
has had a yearly lease with the Read
ing Railroad and Central Railroad OF
New Jersey covering the period of the
last three years. The important
achievement is in securing a long ten
years lease, coupled with the fact that
it embraces the lines of the Lehigf
Valley system, which have been hither
to operated by the Adams Express
Company.
The new deal not only takes away
the lease of the Adams Express Com
pany with the Lehigh Valley Company
but, according to United States EX
press officer, it shuts the Adams out oi
a number of points on the Lehigh Val
ley, which it cannot enter by any othel
lines. These towns include Allentown
Bethlehem, Easton and Scranton il
Pennsylvania; Auburn, OwegO, Roches
ter, Buffalo and other points of similar
Importance in New York The renewa
of the leases with the Reading for ,
period of ten years also means tina
when the leases with other corpora
tions expire on the Boston and Main,
and other lines controlled by the Read
ing, the United States Company viii
also fall heir to them. Within the mex
ten days the United States Express eN
poets to take possession of office in tn
new Terminal Station at Twelfth an,
Market streets.
The first company to carry expires
matter over the Lehigh Valley line
was the old Howard Express Company
which was absorbed some years ago h.
the Adams. Since that deal the Adam
has practically had monopoly of tn
Lehigh Valleys express busines IS. Th
new lease with the United States goe
into effect about February l next.

SAVINGS BANK ROBBED.
DARING BURGLARS SECURE $40,
600 IN BONDS
And $500 in Cash-They Escape with
Their Booty, But Are Afterwards
Captured.

DANBURY, Conn.,, March 2S News was
received here this noon OF daring bank
robbery at Pawling, N. Y. The robbers
entered the savings bank located in the
butcher House about Q o'clock and Sc
cured booty to the amount OF $4,000.
consisting of government bonds mostly.
There were twenty-five guests in the
house at the time beside the watchman,
but no one heard the burglars at work
After forcing the safe open and taking
the contents, the burglars stole hand
car belonging to the Grand Central road,
Harlem branch. and rode to Brewsters
five miles awav on II.
The burglars then journeyed to Carmel
station which they found closed.
IL was tl el o'clock. The burglars
did not relish the idea of remaining out
in tue chilly air several hours waiting
for a train so thev broke open tue station
door and sat in the waiting room until
the arrival OF the south bound train, due
at Carmel station at o'clock. They
boarded the train without exciting any
suspicion. carrying their booty in a
valise.
Soon after the departure Of the train a
deputy sheriff rode wildly into Brews
ters and spread the Eews OF the big
burglary. IL was soon learned. that two
suspicious characters had boarded the
rain at Carmel station and it was de-
oided to stop the train and have the men
arrested at one Of the intermediate
stations.
With this end in view dispatch was
sent ahead TO the conductor, which
he received at High Bridge. The
burglars were arrested aud held
until the arrival ot a number
OF officers from New York city. The
men who gave their names as John Wal
ters and Henry Carey are now In the GUS
tody of the New York officers. The
stolen bonds aud money has been recov-
cred.
The bank where the robbery occurred
was just the place for successful job.
and but for the recklessness of the men
after they had secured the plunder this
mornings robbery would not have ended
| SO fortunately for the conceru. There is
no police protection and the watchman
at the bank sleeps in part OF the bull l.
| ing considerably removed from the bank.
