BIG GANG Of SH0PLIFTERS
NOTORIOUS CROOKS TAKEN IN
BY OFFICERS.
Sheriff Howell's Deputies Capture
Two and Recover Much Plumber
Two Others In Jail,

The arrest of two alleged crooks last
night by Deputy sheriffs Dowse, Har-
ries and McDuff will break up what
there is evidence to believe is an or
ganized gang of shoplifters that has
worked Salt Lake and nearly every
city in Oregon. Washington and Mon
tana during the last three months. The
men are John Burton and Will Keene,
who We're caught at a room on South
Main street with a part of the plumber
in their possession. The other alleged
members of the gang are Ralph EN-
cry, arrested by the police several days
ago; William Haney, arrested by Officer
Eddington last night and charged with
vagrancy; two women, one of whom
is known here, and one other man. The
sheriff purposes to have all behind the
bars before shutdown tonight.
1t is not generally KNOWN that such
gang has been at work in this city.
Emery was arrested for stealing some
gloves and socks from the Lace House
and Walker Bros, and has since been
charged with the theft of q $500 seal
skin sacque. Burton and keene and
others roomed at the same place with
Emery and there is everything to in
Gcate that the whole lot are connected.
Among the things found in the room of
ladies' gloves, identified as the prop
erty of Auerbach's and the Lace House,
and two dozen books of court plaster,
stolen from Smiths drug store. The
men had three skeleton keys and two
hotel pass keys and a hat believed to
have been 'liftedH from the Alvord
house on South Temple street. The
evidence against them appears conclu-
sire. the only drawback. being that no
articles of sufficient value TO make the
crime grand larceny have yet been re-
covered. The sealskin is missing and
both the sheriffs and police forces are
after il. Charles Ebert, from whom it
was stolen, did not know it was lost
until so informed by the police.
The men arrested last night had pa
pers on them to indicate that they had
been all over the Pacific coast, and
from other facts in their possession, the
sheriff's deputies claim that the gang
is notorious. 1t is also claimed that
plan had been laid to burglarize a
Main street jewelry store last night.
One of the women, who is supposed to
be in the gang, is a Salt Laker, more
or less notorious. She will be ar
rested today If found.

/ Duly. the warden watched him, and, as

terrified him.

before the wall died on his tongue the
pistol had cracked close to the nipple
on his black breast, and he fell back
beside the magistrate. In his hand he
grasped the ring; De Jough seized the
blood-stained knobkerry and put it be-
side him. Then the white man leaped
upon his startled horse and galloped

thought, in the moment of dying, that

All organized living things, whether be-

of death and decay
Germs of disease are often generated
within the human system through imper-

poisons which scientists have denoriinated

gorged with over eating or over burdened
with hot bread too rich or greasy foods or
those too highly seasoned, becomes weak
ened and fails to thoroughly digest the
food a heavy, sodden mass is accumu-
lated in the stomach to ferment as the first
step in its decay, giving off foul gases to
distend the stomach, and poison the blood,
until 1t becomes thin, weak and lacking in
the red corpuscles SO necessary TO perfect
health
The over distended stomach presses upon
the heart, and the latter organ is also dis

PREJUDICE OF AMERICANS.
Why Filipinos Refused to Accept
SOVEREIGNTY and Autononv.

Manila, Sept. 1S.-The Associated
Press correspondent here has obtained
a copy of the reply made by the Filipino
congress to the American offer of an
autonomous government. The author
Of the reply was Ambrosio Rianzares,
who was offered a position in the SUI
preme court, but who failed to APPEAR
and was supposed to be detained by the
insurrectionists.
The document repeats the arguments
contained in the recent appeal to the
powers for recognition, and the Fill
pino claims that the Americans We're
the aggressors in the war, and con-
cluGes:
Notwithstanding the foregoing, we
could have accepted your sovereignty
and autonomy il we had not seen by
the behavior Of the Americans in the
beginning that they We're strongly op-
posed to US, through race prejudice, and
the high-handed methods of dealing
with US made US fear for the future in
your hands. Finally, we thank you for
your offers of autonomy under sover-

SALT PALACE CATCH.
Police Arrest Seven Youths For
Climbing Fence.

Seven forlorn youths. some OF whom
looked old enough TO know better. were
locked UP last night for sneaking into the
Salt Palace grounds by way of the fence.
For long time the plan of tearing off a
section of the barb-wire guard along fhe
top of the fence and climbing over ha :
been in vogue. and heretofore the police
have contented themseif with marching
the trespassers out Of the gate to the
tune of Hagenback's organ. Last night
a raid was started, and the disheartened
seven were given a ride in the patrol
wagon around the grounds, through the
crowds and finally to the police station
proving a greater attraction than any,
thing on the Midway. Most of the BOYS
got out in ball. fixed at 81 apiece. These
are the names they gave: Ed Orick. Ar
