Mr.. Zimmerman then read it. nnoun

found guilty of manslaughter. with the
the extreme penalty allowed by law
FOR that crimeften years Imprisonment

Thus Baker is at last removed from

THE SPOONS SAFE.
A Burglars Work in the
St. Nicholas.
He Enters Nine. Louise Sorbier's
Apartments, Disconuects the
Electric Bell and Steals.

Nine. Louise Sorbier was at a meeting
of the Woman's Educational and Indus
trial Union yesterday. of which she is
president. During her absence her rooms
at the st. Nicholas Hotel were broken
into and a large number of articles of value
distracted.
The larceny was daring one, and the
detective who is now watching the case
at the hotel believes that the burglar was
prepared to offer violence TO any one who
opposed his plans. The rooms seem to
have been opened by some one possessed
of key. The first thing the burglar did
was to unscrew the ia astening of the cleo
trio bell and break the connecting wires
Then, cheered with the consciousness that
he could handle any one who Interrupted
his work, he settled right down to busi-
ness.
A large trunk containing number of
yaluables was hauled out and the hinges
we're pried OFF. The sturdy Saratoga seems,
however, to have resisted the burglars
efforts to wrench it open. CiIcuD stantial
evidence points to the fact that he accom-
plished his purpose at last through the in
strumentality of pair Of curling tongs
that were lying by handy.
Most of the valuables abstracted from
much on account OF the memories con-
nected with them as because OF their in
trlnsc value, though that 10 considerable
Some of them are wedding gifts that have
been treasured for years. Among the
missing articles are two bracelets, one of
them set with diamonds, gold neckplD,
an antique gold buckle, two pairs of pearl
earrings, an d-fashioned eDameled watch
set with diamonds, pair of gold cuff
buttons, and last, but not least, rosary
that was brought as a souvenir from
L0urdes. In France.
The strangest thing is that about dozen
handsome souvenir spoons in morocco
case at the bottom of the trunk were over
looked. Mme. Sorbier's children evidently
came from school and surprised the bur
glar at bis work and made him decide to
escape. Luckily for them the children
remained In the adjoining room and did not
enter the bedroom. for it is the opinion of
the detectives, based partly upon the fact
of the bell being wrenched off. that he
was prepared to sandbag any one who in
terfered.
The police are working upon the case,
and 1t is hoped that the lost articles may
yet be recovered.
