fiuence of Drugs.
New YORK. Aug. 3.--Dr. w. j. O'Sul-
livan and Lewis Stuyvesant Chanler,
the attorneys for DR.. G. w. Meyer and
his wife, the alleged poisoners, returned
late last night from Detroit, where they
have been for the purpose of talking to
the accused woman.
Dr. O'Sulhvan said today: II went
to the Harper hospital without Chanler
to see the reputed Mrs. Meyer. l found
two PinkertOn detectives in charge of
her. She was very confused, and 1t
was only after desperate effort
that she was able to collect her
thoughts OH the simplest matters.
Her condition was due to narcotic
drugs or hypnotic influences. The
nurse was very irritable. The woman
had heard nothing of DR.. Meyer, save
that he had pleaded guilty and impli-
Gated her. All newspaper and other
communication had been withheld. The
detectives had uniformly misrepreSemt-
ed all that had occurred, and threatened
even to remove both her children
if she did not make con-
fession- In order to show that
they could do that, they had removed
one of her children, and only let ner see
it at intervals when they told her that
it was ailing in health. Sne said that
she had been tortured by questions and
threats. She denied that she promised
to confess or that she had made state
ment of any kind. She said she was
afraid to eat any food because of
Its effect on her. They even told
her just before l entered that was the
district attorney, and that she should
be careful what she said. The house
physician OF the hospital said she could
easily make the trip to this city. He
had admitted that he had given her
drugs. She protested the innocence of
herself and Meyer"

GOT NO FUNDS,
Although He Displayed a Gun TO
the Cashier

DULUTH, Minn., Aug. 3.-A bold at
tempt was made at noon today by an
unknown man to rob the st. Louis
County bank. He came into the bank
and saw package containing $4,000
within easy reach. Going out, he hired
a horse, rode back to the bank, and,
going in, found the cashier alone. The
robber wrote demand for the money
and passed it through the window to
the cashier, at the same time displaying
a gun. The cashier dropped down be-
hind the counter, and, by crying for
help, frightened the amateur bank rob-
Der so that he gave up the attempt and
rode away. Chase was made by volun-
teerS, we'll mounted, but they were un-
able to catch the robber or find any clue
of HIM. The work was evidently that
OF man new to the profession.

were looted of Jewelry to the value of
over 800 within the space of three

of less amounts.
The police were nOn-plussed. They
could obtain no evidence on which to
arrest any one, and they had no idea as
to who were the culprts. The other
day, however, they were astounded
after getting clue to find that the al
legged thieves were two young girls,
fifteen and thirteen years old respect
lively. They we're Katie Reynolds and
PHILIPPINE COOney. When the police
went TO arrest the Reynolds girl yester-
day she got news of their cOnring and
slid down a fire escape and got away.
Today they entered the house through
a scuttle and succeeded in capturing
her. Katie confessed the thefts and
says she pawned articles to the amount
of several hundred dollars. She pawned
one diamond pin valued at $3.50 for

the money she said she spent it for
candy. At the YorkvllIe police court

Roberts, Rednctinn-

PHILADELPHIA, Aug. 3.-President
Roberts, of the Pennsylvania Railroad
company, has caused to be issued from
the general offices of the company an
order for the reduction of labor in the
mechanical department from six days a
week of ten hours per day to five days
of nine hours each. The order affects
all the shops of the Pennsylvania sys-
TEN, including the leased and controlled
lines. This action is taken with view
to reducing the expenses, and is in line
with the policy of rigid retrenchment
inaugurated some time ago, the bene-
fetal effects of which have already been
manifested in the shape Cf a great in
crease in the net earnings.

WASHINGTON, Ang. 3.-It is not at all
improbable. that the Minnesota delega-
tion, in both the lower house and the
senate, may be found voting soidly for
the repeal of the Sherman act. Con-
gressmon Boen is the only man who is
not committed to vote for repeal, al
though the silver men are claiming both
Fletcher and Tawney. That there will
be strong attempt to lead off these
two on partisan grounds there is no
doubt, and if julius Caesar Burrows is
able to impress his views of party policy
on them they will be lost in the coming
struggle. Courageous tom" Reed
