PLACED IT IN THE SAFE

and locked it up. He put s75 in bills and
money in his pocket and took it home
with him. This was the usual custom. A
small fortune might repose in the safe,
but the bills were always taken home for
fear of burglars. Indeed so Tapprehensive
has young Mr. Hutchins been that he has
not always made the combination simp-
ly putting on the day lock, believing that
the burglars might thus be led to spare
the SAFE In all the precautions no one
seemed to have thought of any danger to
the four little drawers full of the old
gentleman's papers.
When young Webb returned to the store
Friday morning he found everything
apparently all right, but when he had
opened the safe he discovered vacuum.
The pile of silver. was missing, and ex-
animation showed that the drawers
which Webb knew to contain the papers
were empty. On the floor by the safe
was half-burned match, on the window
sill was another and on the top of the
safe lay half a card of matches. The
matches were all that the burglar had
left to mark his visit. No attempt had
been made to rob the store. In one of
the drawers in the counter was five or
six dollars in change. The goods We're
all undisturbed.
Young Mr. Hutchins arrived home
from Portland during the day and at
once telegraphed his grandfather, who
reached Fryeburg the next day Then the
old gentleman went to Saco to consult
Cashier Parcher, as already stated, and
today he is in Bridgton. He says little

TAKES HIS LOSS CooLLY.

although, as one of the villagers said to-
day, he seems rather blue at times. He
has as yet offered no reward for the ap-
prehension of the burglar. When he ar
rived from Groveton, Mr. Hutchins talked
awhile with his grandson and Webb
about the robbery, but soon began talking
of other things. Young Mr.. Hutchins
knows only in general way what the
old gentleman had in the safe. He said
today that the contents of the drawers
were not his and he had never examined
them. He does know that there were
numerous notes there one for an amount
as high as $4,000. Then there was $500
bond of the Biddeford and Saco Electric
Light and Power Copmany. All told
the property might have a face value of
$25, 900, but Mr.. Hutchins did not think
it was $50, 900 as at first believed. The
notes were largely given for the pay
not be loss. They are of course value
less to anybody but the owner. With the
exception of the silver and the bond there
does not appear to have been anything
negotiable in the booty.
Now the men who congregate in the
village stores to settle the affairs of the
state and nation. have a new problem to
discuss and one that is so far bids fair
to rival the old question as to the name
of the gentleman who struck Billy Pat
terson. 1t seems to be apparent that the
safe was opened by some one who knew
the combination. but that was supposed
to be known only to young Mr.. Hutchins
and Mr.. Webb, and no one suspects either
of them to have had anything to do with
the robbery. Some years ago the store
was conducted by Seth Hutchins, a
brother of James E., and the combina-
tion has not been changed. Seth says he
doubts if he could remember it now if
he tried. AS the old gentleman was in
Groveton, for one thing, and probably
does not know the combination, for an

Court of the United States to day de-
MED the application of Elveston r.
Chapman, the recalcitrant witness in
the SENATE Sugar trust investigation
last Summer, for habeas corpus on
the ground that it was not compe.
tent for the Supreme Court to inter.
fere in the matter until after the case

by the District Court.
Chief Justice Fuller, who delivered
tho decision, fays il the tinal decision
should be against him, it would be
competent for Chapman to apply for

said tho court had been unable to see
that Chapman's case presented any
