The Cecil Whig. [volume] (Elkton, Md.) 1841-current, 1895-09-21

Mr.. f. L. Kirk. of Calvert, was in Elk
ton on Monday, and exhibited at the WHIG
office an old copper spigot, which was COM
plete piece of mechanism, its value being in
that it was self closing. Its use therefore
would prevent any loss Of material from any
one leaving the spigot open. The flow was
regulated by a piston sliding in the tube,
which was operated by a key in slot at the
end of the spigot. When pushed up the key
acted as It wedge and pryed backed the
piston, dsplacing the cap-which as valve
closed the spigot. The key must be held up Is
long as the person wishes to draw at the spisot.
When allowed to drop the key no longer
presses on the piston-and the cap (valve)
goes back into place and stops the flow.
There is no danger of the barrel running dry
from the spigot being left open. When Mr..
Kinks house was burned down about year
ago, this article was found about the ruins.
1t had evidently been placed away by Mr.
Kinks father. and was brought out from it's
hiding place by the fire. He thinks it was
manufactured in England.

and he was hungry. They did this. Bur
rows at once put his two hands into the
bag, and Notwithstanding the handouts
On his wrists pulled out two pistols. With
these he covered the negroes. He made
them go and bind and gag the white man
and then made one Of the negroes bind the
other. The unbound negro he compelled
to lead him to the room in the hotel where
Carter was sleeping. He made him knock
at the door and say TO Carter that he was
wanted at the jail. The result was Carter
opened the door and found himself facing
the cold steel of Burrows reyolvers. He
did not finch, however, but pulled his pis-
tol and began firing. A number of shots
were exchanged, and Burrows was killed.
Carter received several wounds, but he ne.
covered and got his reward.
One OF the biggest robberies of stamps
that the department has ever known was
that which occurred last fall at the bureau
OF engraving and printing. The govern
ment until within short time has been
having the stamps made by the American
Bank Note company Of Now York. 1t cost
the government cents thousand. Now
Uncle Sam makes his own stamps and
saves 500, 600 year by doing so. Last
October, however, 1t was found that two
employees OF the bureau had been stealing
stamps by the thousand. The officers woke
up one morning to find 90, 900 Q cent
stamps missing, and IL was discovered that
these men had sent out short packages to
the various postofiices and had sold the
stamps they stole. There were two women
mixed up In the case, and just before dis
covery the men took satchel filed with
stamps and ran of with the girls to New
York. They returned within a day or 80
and went back to work They denied their
crime upon being arrested, but were con-
victed and are now serving out sentence In
the penitentiary.
A big stamp robbery occurred In Minne-
apolis nine years ago. The thieves stole
S00,0 900 stamps. They did 1t at night
breaking through the stamp window. The
stamps were locked up in the safe, but tho
burglars opened IL with "a diamond drill.
The value of their steal was about S14,-
600. They took their booty TO Chicago and
tried to dispose of IL there through some
men who octed ms postage stamp fences.
They had still 81, COO worth of stamps left
when they were discovered, arrested and
sent TO prison. The gang OF burglars I'm
New York do not socm TO have this trou-
BILE In disposing of their stamps. A vast
amount of stamps comes into the big cities
In the transmission OF small sums through
tho mails. The merchants sell them
through brokers at small discount, and
millions OF stamps are disposed OF In this
way. IL Is estimated that New York uses
70, 900, 600 worth Of postage stamps which
she does not buy OF tho government.
There is no way Of detecting stolen
stamp, and the postage stamp fences thus
have little trouble In getting rid OF tho
amounts they buy from the robbers. New

ROBBING THE MAILS.
HOW UNCLE SAM Is VCTIMIZED BY
!: PROFESSIONAL BURGLARS.

Great Increase In This Sort of Crime.
Queer Schemes of Fraud-The Case OF
Rube Burrows-some Big Stamp Rob
beriea
The records Of the postoffice department
OF the United States are blotted with
crime. More than 100 postmasters go
wrong every year. Over 1000 persons are
annually arrested for trying In some way
Or other to pilfer from tho mails and on
the average more than two postoffices are
robbed every day, year In and year out.
Last year there was an increase of 80 per
cent in postoffice burglaries, there being
426 more such crimes during thai timc
than In the year preceding, and within the
past ten years there has been an increase
OF BAT per cent In postal. robberies. The
indications are that the -resent year will
break the record, and that 1t will show
more burglaries than any in our history.
The robbing OF postoffices is now reduced
TO q science. It is known that there are
In the country class of professional bur-
glars who devote themselves to robbing
postoffices. They are experts In their line
and their stealings equal fortunes. They
have their fences, through whom they get
rid OF the stamps they steal, and every
thing connected with them seems to be
systematically organized.
They operate In all parts Of the coun-
try, though the headquarters of one of the
biggest gangs seems to be en New York.
During the past two or three years they
have become bolder than ever. The post
Office department. has for some time known
OF their existence, and the inspectors are
working night and day to wipe them out.
Two years ago the matter was taken up
~ congress- and an appropriation Of s1O.-
600 was made to DO used by the postoffice
department. In the shape Of rewards for the
arrest and detection of such robbers. Last
year this appropriation was increased to
S2o, 600, and the result Is that the depart-
ment now has standing rewards for noted
postal burglars. II Is now sending bills
announcing such rewards TO the different
detective offices Of the country.
Of all such desperate postofflce robbers
The department has no moro remarkable
case than that OF Rube Burrows. This
man was famous train robbor and bur
giar. He had been engaged In number of
postofiice robberies and he ended his ca.
reer through an attempt to rob mail
train In mississippi In 1889. He had two
oUnfederates and the three men entered
the train by way Of the engine. They COW
ered the engineer and fireman with their
pistols and then made their way back TO
ehe mail car. They took all Of the regis
eered packages and succeeded In making
their escape. The postoffice dcpartmcnt
offered 81 900 for tho arrest OF Burrows
The railroads also offered rewards, and a
man named Carter finally capfured him
He was taken TO Alabama and was put
Into village jail. Carter had gone of TO
sleep at tho hotel. He left q white man
and two negroes 10 guard Burrows. Dur
ing the night the white man went on into
. cabin 20 slcsp leaving the two negroes
alone Burrows had little canyns bag
with him at the time OF his capture. He
