TWO STORES WERE ROBBED.
Thieves Operating Among the Small
Shops in the Suburbs.

Two stores in the suburbs of Raleigh
were robbed Wednesday night. From one
about SO worth of goods was taken and
from the other about S. worth of money
and goods.
1t was at the store of w. l.. Sander
ford, on East Hargett street, near the
Soldiers Home, that the thieves made
their largest raise. There they carried
away groceries to the tune of about $40
worth.
From W. A. Fulcher, on corner of Le-
noir and Blount streets, they got rs cents
in small coins and about So worth of
goods, consisting of meat, coffee, tobacco
and -four. This store was entered through
a second story window.
At both stores the cash drawer was
broken open and, judging from the burnt
paper and matches, the safes were KAN
ined very carefully, but no attempt was
made to break either of them open.
The thieves seem to have been very
considerate, taking only small quaint
ty Of goods and carefully selecting them
and leaving everything in good order.
The police were yesterday making care
full Investigations of the robberies, to the
end that the guilty parties may be caught.

HAMIL ELECTED TURNKEY

A Lively Caucus of the Democratic Aldermen
Last Night--A Tie on the Sun
day Closing

The Democratic aldermen held a eau
Gus last highland it was warm num-
ber This means that the meeting of the
aldermen tonight will probably develop
some hot tomalies.
THOS. o. FAUCETTE was chosen to
/ fill the place that was made vacant by
the discharge of Officer Ruth, for failure
to assist Officer Cakes in his attempt to
arrest Jake Jones. Mr.. Faucette is a
printer.
JACK HAMIL was elected turnkey in
place Of Capt Heartt, who recently re-
signed Mr.. Hamil is a contractor and n
partner of Alderman Hunnicutt, doing
business under the firm name of Hunnl-
cult & Hamil.
The fight on the Sunday-closing ques-
ton will be especially interesting to-
night. The Board stands to 5, with two
members-John G. Drewry Dem.) and
K. A. Johnson (col. Rep.)-absent. Mayor
Russ must therefore decide the question
if it comes to a vote.
And come to a vote it must, for there
will be petitions and delegations there
urge the passage of the ordinance pro
posed and voted down at the last meet
ing. A hot discussion may therefore be
looked for tonight, unless it cools dowr
considerably from what it was in the
caucus last night.
Then an attempt will be made, it is
said. to make Denton close his saloon al
IL o'clock at night, according to the or
dinance. He keeps not only a saloon, but
a restaurant. At II o'clock he quits sell
ing drinks, but keeps his place open tC
serve lunch. This, it has been claimed, is
a violation of the ordinance. Mr.. Denton
claims that it is not. An attempt was
made in caucus last night to bring the
matter up for discussion, but the caucus
adjourned without discussing it.
There are several other matters of in
Iterest and Importance to come before the
Board tonight.

Lord Cough, who was present when Sir
Julian Pauncefote signed this arbitration
treaty, is a nephew of old Gen. Sir Hugh
Cough, OF PeninsuIar and Indian memory,
and who was in about every battle Eng
land had from BeraSa to Goojirat,
period covering three decades, and very
significant ones they We're for EngIand's
Indian empire, which was laid on it's solid
foundations by just such men as old Hugh
Cough. In 1855, just before the British
evacuated the CTirnea, Gen. Hugh Cough,
then colonel of the Royal Horse Guards
tribute a lot of decorations and hon DIS,
20 be bestowed before the French and
English left the Crimea. Gen. PelliSier,
the man who made the famous speech
about hte Balakiava charge, being mag
nificent but not war, got the Grand Cross
of the Bath. He always looked to me more
like a baker than great general, but he
was really good officer. OF those living
who were then decorated by Gen. Lord
Cough, who wore the uniform OF his regi-
ment-the Horse Guards Blue-rather than
that of a general, 1 can recall only Gen.
de Galifit, then dashing young lieutenant
of husSars, af5erward for years the ablest
cavalry commander in the French army.
All these things 1 recalled as l looked at
the English ambassador and his secretary
of embassy, as Sir Julian was signing that

THE BEGINNING OF A ROW

THE BEGINNING OF A ROW.
Tie ,Iccirc lighting companies contro-
versy hasa ssumeda a new and IA ther trouble
some phase. The best paved streets in the
city are being torn up by the Potomac
Power Company, in order that they may
complete The putting down Of seven miles
or conduit before Congress can order a
dis oatinuance of the work. as the Senate
District Committee has clearly indicated
the Senate viii co 10y its vote on Friday in
support OF the CockrelI resolution. In
virtual, If not Illegal, defiance Of this
clearly expressed determination OF the
Senate Committee, the Potomac Company
has set a very large force OF men at work
with a view OF having the job finished
before an order to the District Com mission
ers can be formally passed by Congress.
The mischief Of it all IS that the injury
and inconvenience of the conflict falls upon
iCSIhtAlLs ftlAl DUSihtsS NTH Va W HSiA-
ington. Highways like Pennsylvania and
New York avenues, the two best paved
streets in the city, are torn up and block
AIDED mile OF more in length, and viii
remain SO probably for month or more.
For good part OF the distance the conduits
Will run side by side-an entirely unneces-
aary proceeding, as nobody supposes for
moment that the price to consumers viii
be lowered by either company In fact.
Congress has pretty much the power of
regulating the price, whether there IS one
company or a dozen, and so far nobody
who cared for electric light service has
been unable TO obtain it.
We shall watch the Senate's proceedings
on Monday with some interest, for that
venerable body is not apt to permit itself
TO be defied by any class of people-and
especially by the political nondescnpts of
the District OF Columbia.
