Succeeds In Battling Pursuers
by a Clever Move.
DOWN The FIRE ESCAPE.
Detectives Are Now Locking fora Nice Young
Man Who Assisted the Beauty
In Distress

New York. Oct 15.-Mrs. Anna Hart,
the woman upon whom Bank Defaulter
William Schreiber laYished the greater
part OF the fortune he stole, has eluded
the vigilance OF the detectives who were
watching her and fed TO parts unknown.
IL is believed she has gone TO Join Schrei-
ber.
She left the fiat of Alma Templeton.
No. ESQ West Fifty-irst street in disguise.
1t is said s.4e climbed down the back
fire escape OF tho apartment house clad
in male costume, made her way 10 the
cellar and, watching her opportunity.
gained the street without being seen by
those supposed TO be on the watch.
Alma Templeton YVES seen at her nat
and confirmed the report that Mrs. Hart
had gone away. She refused TO talk
about the matter.
Mrs Hart has gone away" said she.
"and that's all know about IL. She did
not tell me where she was going. 1 have
no means OF knowing where she would
go, and besides, it's none of my business
Mrs. Hart, since her removal from her
apartment at No. 155 West Forty-eighth
street. had been under constant surveil-
lance by detectives employed by the Eliz-
abethport bank TO watch her every move
ment This was done because IL was be-
lieved that at the first convenient oppor-
tunity she would seek TO rejoin Schreiber.
That she should have eluded the vigilance
Of her watchers Is a solar plexus blow
TO the pursuit of Schreiber, who at last
accounts is further from capture than
ever before.
A well known young man about town
s,, IIar
pany after the disappearance Of Schreiber
is believed TO have aided her escape, Fhe
police do not think he went with her
and a small army OF detectives were last
night securing the Tenderloin for him.
Up TO a late hour they had not succeeded
I'm locating him. A he chiefs OF police OF
the principal western cities have been
wired to look out for Mrs Hart.
President +. L. Heidritter. of the Eliza
bethport bank. declared last night that
Schreiber was as remote from capture as
when the detectives first started to hunt
him down. This opinion, however, Is not
shared by State Detective Edward Kelly,
who appears to have something up his
sleeve. Kelly left Summit. n. j.. yes
terday morning. bound for this city.
Meanwhile the experts employed by the
state banking department have not yet
been able, after a weeks hard labor, TO
discover just when Schreiber began to
steal.
Abraham Levy. who has been retained
by the bank n directors 10 -criminallY
prosecute the woman Hart, will in all
probability apply for a warrant for her
arrest, today on the ground that she rs
equally principal with Schreiber In the
crime of robbing the bank inasmuch as
she assisted in bringing the stolen moneys
into this state.
The attorneys for the Elizabethport
bank will today begin actions against
each of the individuals alleged 10 have
property OF Mrs. Hart In their possession
These actions are independent of the re-
plevin proceedings. The attorneys say
they have located s25.Ooo belonging to Mrs.
Hart, but refuse to say where IL is.

Hazclton, Oct 15.--The fifth week OF the

pedia of political misinformation the
Journal is very valuable
The Providence Journal says: "As
stated before 1t makes small difference
whether the mayor or this city is ma
tionally a Republican or a Democrat. or
whether it be MIR. Granger or some other
man."
The argument is made by prominent
business men OF both parties that IL
would make very little difference, If the
candidate was a man who entertained
sound money ideas, but when a man who
deliberately states that he is for Bryan
and free silver, is put forward, they say:
These self-appointed boomers will find
that II makes all the difference in the
world, and we don't want, and won't ac-
cept. a Bryanite."
The same organ harps also upon the
point that IL makes no difference whether
the mayor is MIR. Granger or "some other
man" Can it be that this coterie Of self
appointed Granger boomers have finally
seen the fntilitY Of trYing To inject Life In
to dead issue, and are trying TO be on
the winning side BY talking about "some
other man."

boom is gone 20 pieces. smashed TO some

smashed entirely because the people of
Providence absolutely refuse to support
a man who has declared in favor of q
50-cent dollar and all the other Bryan
political issues.
Mr.. Perkins stated this morning that
he was paying no attention TO the malic-
ious fabrications of the Granger coterie,
but would keep on with his campaign
work until the last gun was fired. You
can say" he said, that l am i'm the
fight TO stay. and that no tissue OF his

One Of Their Officers Says Men
Will Be Working bySaturday
Thus Far the Operators Have Made No
Move Toward AdjuStment--FifIh
Week Of Strike Begins.

coal region this morningA While miners
generally think the terms OF their con-
vention will be accepted by operators, and
coal carrying companies operators here
abouts insist that so far as they arc
concerned they will not. unless forced 10
by the coal carrying companies, sign an
agreement 20 pay 10 per cent.
George Hartlen. secretary OF district
No. made this statement: THE terms
/ believe will be accepted by operators.
The miners will not so 10 work until
President Mitchell declares the strike off
officially. A big demonstrat tion will be
held throughout the region on tho day
previous TO work being resumed. / think
the colleries will be working before next
Saturday"
GEN. GoBIN'S POSITION.
Gen Goblin. in charge OF the state
troops located here since the strike riot
of Sept Il. Is anxiously awaiting the
verdict Of tho operators in regard 10 the
terms OF settlement agreed upon at the
Scranton convention.
He is anxious 10 get away and 10 send
the troops home. but the outbreaks az
Oneida and Lattimer last week and the
condition of affairs i'm the Panther Creek
region cause him TO hesitate.
IL is probable that there will be no
whether the proposed terms of agreement
are acceptable TO the operators.
RAILWAYS MUST END DISPUTE.
Hazleton, Pa. Oct l5.-The individual
operators who could be seen here yester-
day declined 20 discuss the action taken
by the anthracite miners convention al
Scranton Saturday in continuing the
strike.
Neither would they say what steps the
employees probably would take. 1t is evil
dent from their reticence that the in
dividual mine owners are awaiting 70
see what the large coal-carrying rail-
roads that mine coal will do.
IL " reported i'm the coal region that the
presidents of those roads will hold a con-
ference i'm New York for discussion OF the
action of the convention.
There was story afloat that the
operators will accept the conventions de-
cision, but nothing has come TO the sur
face I'm this region on which to base the
report
WAITING FOR THE OPERATORS.
The United Mine Workers officials say
they are waiting on the operators, and
they will continue to close up the col
liories that have been in operation sincs
the strike began four weeks ago.
There are many reports I'm circulation
that If the strike continues much long
er, a break In the ranks of the idle men
will occur President Mitchell and his
associate officials, however, reassert their
confidence that the men, both union ana
non-union, will remain away from the
mines until after the strike is declared
off
There is a fear prevalent in this region
that If some of the men do return TO
work trouble probably would arise
through efforts OF the strikers to persuade
the men TO remain on strike.
All the collieries that are working still
remain heavily guarded

Seeing Defeat Ahead, They Are Now
Abusing Those Who Will Not Assist
Them in Codd|lng Their Candidate.
Perkins Steadily Gaining in Strength.
Another Possible Candidate for
City Treasurer.

The main subject of discussion in poll
tical circles today was the pitiful wall
made by the Granger organ yesterday,
in which admitted defeat was written
between nearly every line. The most
amusing feature of the article. in the
opinion of Republicans. and also of the
large number of Democrats who do not
believe I'm Mr.. Granger as a candidate
for the mayoralty. is the final admis-
sion, tardy though IL is, that there is a
candidate opposed to Mr.. Granger.
Not word rs said by the Granger
boomers, in the columns of the Provi-
dence Journal. in behalf OF their can IL
date, but throughout the entire article
a feeble effort is made TO belittle Mir.

the rank and file of the Democratic party
for the mayoralty, and not daring to at
tack him direcuy. certain gentlemen, who

True to their campaign of falsihcation
the Granger boomers are trying to in
duce people 10 believe that the movement
in favor of Mr.. terklns is not a sincere
one, whereas Mr.. Perkins is making
straight out and out ight for the nomi-
nation, and IL may be said that his
chances OF getting the mayoralty nomi-
nation are improving every day. This
is what is causing the self-appointed
nominators of Mr.. Granger TO gnash their
tee.n and consequently, not having any
thing else TO do. they resort TO base
fabrications and also to the grossest In
accuracies.
mat the men who are writing In the
interest OF Mr.. Granger are all at sea,
and accept as true everything that is
brought 10 them by one or two second
rate politicians from the Second and
Ninth wards. s shown by some OF the
absurdities which they publish in the col
unns OF the Granger organ
