choked him into Vduick submission.
while the other dra&xed him down the
steps into the street.
Holding revolyers at his head, the
bandits threatened him with instant
death II he made an, outcry, and as he
lay on the sidewalk one Of the men
knelt upon him.. while the other tore
open his overcoat and inner coat and
searched his pockets.
Daneman had received his weeks pay,
$12, an hour previous, and the money
was still in the pay envelope in his in
side coat pocket. This the desperado
secured, together with a small amount
of change that was in other pockets. A
number Of small articles were also
taken.
Having robbed him both of the thugs
kicked him in the chest and side and
commanded him to lie on the sidewalk
without moving for two minutes.
The robbers then turned to the east
ward and fed, running at full speed,
while Daneman, half strangled and suf-
fering from the brutality of his assail-
ants. struggled feebly to his feet and
tried to call for help. His first efforts
were unsuccessful; his voice failed him.
But within few seconds he recovered
sufficient breath to shout in a choking
voice: Murder! Police!"
Policemen Riordan and Garvey were
walking east in Lee place, hardly a
block away, when the robbery occurred.
They had passed Danemans house a few
moments before the latter was held up.
They were walking on the opposite side
of the street, and were in citizens dress,
having been detailed to travel together
about the district in search of footpads
The first intimation the officers re-
ceived that anything was wrong was
when they heard rapid footsteps coming
In their direction. Immediately after
ward they heard the faint cries of Dane
man, calling out that he had been rob-
bed and nearly murdered.
The policemen stopped and ran into
the middle Of the narrow street. The
miserable thoroughfare, little better
than an alley, was so dark that the flee
Ing outlaws were running directly into
the arms of the policemen, but when the
latter darted into the roadway the rob-
bers saw them. Both of the officers
raised their revolvers and shouted to the
| oncoming men to halt.
Checking their headlong speed within
20 feet of the leyeled revolvers, the
thugs stood still for second or two,
and then both OF them raised their own
pistols and held them pointed at the po-
licemen's breasts, but instead of firing
they wheeled and ran in the opposite
direction.
Before they had taken half a dozen
steps Policemen qRiprdan and Garvey
shouted to them to stop, threatening to
fire if they did not. One of the thugs
paid no heed to this command and con-
tinued his retreat westward in Lee place.
But the second bapdid did stop. He
wheeled suddenly in his tracks and once
! more raised his revolver, pointing it
in the direction of the policemen.
Before he could fire two reports rang
out from the revolvers in the hands of
the police officers. and the highwayman
who had turned to shoot dropped dead
on the spot with bullet in his brain.

SINGING INSECTS OF JAPAN.


They Are Gagged and Highly Prized
for Their Musical Notes.
Singing birds are esteemed in all
countries, but it is only in Japan that
the musical sounds emitted by certain
Insects are appreciated.
Listening to these minute singers is,
and has been for many centuries, a
favorite pastime of the Japanese, and
has given birth to an original COM

ChfId's Long Coat, No. 1902.
The long coat that means warmth to
the entire body is necessity for the
young child. The very charming little
design illustrated is admirable for the
wee tot who has just been promoted to
short clothes, as we'll as for children of
four and six years of age. AS shown
the material is Russian blue broadcloth,
with trimming of soft gray chinchilla; /;
but younger children wear white ben
galine peau de sole, drap de etc and
velvet, corduroy or velveteen can be
substituted for the cloth when the child
has reached the mature age of four
years. Fur is much used as trimming,
but narrow frills of ribbon and stitched
bands are entirely correct.
The skirt portion is laid in box plaits,

1t thus appears that, for this Tour
months period, the net earnings have
risen from $6O,818. 900 in 1896 to $l25,-
024. 900 in 1901, or at the rate OF los
per cent. The striking fact in these
comparisons is that while the busi-
ness has risen at the rate Of 551x PEI
cent, the profits have gained at the rate
of 105 per cent, or in nearly doubled
ratio.
With such an immense increase in
both traffic and net earnings, it is
not surprising that prices have risen
at the rate exhibited during the boom;
rather, the surprise is that market val
ues have not been expanded still more.
The significance Of this movement is
strengthened by the fact that it has
been no sudden or artificial squirt, but a
gradual and normal drift extending
over six years of steady and real nation
al growth.

3 NEW YORK, June 29.-The month
OF June closed on the street with a very
firm feeling all along the line al
though the market, as a matter of
course, was restricted one. All traces
of the recent failures have vanished,
and conditions are deemed extraordi-
narily good for, July, there being a
reasonable expectation that the July
disbursements of interest and divi-
bends, footing up about one hundred
and twenty-five millions, will be very
generally used for investment purposes.
The banks are well prepared for these
heavy calls, and there will be no trou-
Die whatever in meeting them.
On the London market Americans
were strong and active, and about TO-
20 shares were taken.
The local market showed the most
strength in the grangers, New York
Central and Illinois Central, while st.
Paul was also strong, and Copper and
y. =. d 1. features among the indus
trials. United States Steel preferred
sold up to within one-quarter of par
while common nearly touched the 81
mark on very fair sales for a short
day. All loans were made at five per
cent.
The bank statement follows:

The Register has information from
reliable source, which cannot be reveal
ed at the present time. that number
Of gentlemen possessing portion OF the
necessary capital. are considering plan
for securing the new electric street rail-
way franchise. after the expiration OF
the franchise now controlled by the
Wheeling Traction Company. The
statement made to the Register Is that
these gentlemen realize the value OF the
franchise and propose to go before
Council with proposition that it be
awarded to the parties making the most
advantageous offer.
They will ask Council for a franchise
for a reasonable time-fifteen or twenty
years probably-and will agree to pay a
cash bonus or percentage of the gross
receipts. preferably the latter plan.
The gentlemen who are interested and
who are seeking to interest others hav-
ing the necessary capital. are of opinion
that the franchise could be made more
valuable by the use of double track
system on all the streets used under the
existing grant, which is soon 10 ex-
pre-.
In connection with the street railway
matter, many merchants are complain
ing about the ten cent fare between
Bridgeport and Wheeling and between
Martins Ferry and Wheeling. They
say that large share OF their patron
age comes from these two industrial
cities, and that with five cent fare the
trade would be materially increased
| This has given rise TO sentiment fav-
| orable to securing the five cent fare con-
cession from the Wheeling Traction
Company when it applies for an exten.
sion of the franchise which is about tc
| expire.
