American METHODS BY
BOLD AMERICAN THIEVES.
OFFICE OF THE AMERICAN Ex-
PRESS COMPANY. IN PARIS,
LOOTED.
THIRTY THOUSAND FRANCS
SECURED BY BLOWING OPEN THE
MONEY SAFE WITH DY-
MANTLE.

PARIS, April 27.-Three masked bur-
glars entered the American Express
Company's Office last night, surprised
the Waterman asleep, gagged and bound
him and escaped with 10000 francs.
The colored lad who acted Is watch
man says the robbery was committed
by three men who spoke English, n
of them with a noticeable American ac-
cent. According to the boys story. he
was awakened by n of the men kneel-
ing on his chest and choking hin.
Afterwards two of the men left him and
blew open the safe, the third man
standing guard rel him with a re-
volver. The carpet from the Office floor
was wrapped about the safe to deaden
the noise Of the explosion, but in spite
of this the defamation awakened the
Waterman in an adjoining building OPP
posite the one in which the express
company's Office was located, and the
force of the exploding charge was so
great that it twisted coin lying loose in
the safe. The burglar who had Oeen
guarding the boy, the latter says, left
him with a warning not to stir on pain
of death. Burglar tools of American
make were LETT behind by the cracks
men. The Waterman has been arrested,
the police not crediting his account of
the burglary.

A COMPROMISE
On the Question of Opening the

daN

On the Question of Opening the
Pan-Amcrican Exposition on sun
days.
BUFFALO, n. Y, April 27.-The
question of whether the gates If the
Pan American grounds are to be open
on Sunday was finally settled to-day by
the board of directors. Their decision
is a compromise. The gates are to be
opened from l p. m. until IL p. m,
but the Midway and all amusement
features will be closed during the "a
hours, from Saturday night till Mon
day morning.
With the opening of the gates of the
Pan American exposition still four days
away, the work of construction is in a
remarkably advanced stage considering
the setback caused by the storm OF a
week ago. All the main buildings and
many of the smaller mes are entirely
finished, the scaffolding down, the IN
tricate and varied coloring complete as
a whole and in detail, the statuaIy
nearly all placed, one-half of the flower
beds in bloom and the principal saat-
ures Of the Midway ready for busi-
ness.
The electric wiring was completed to-
day and tonight there was a special
illumination for the benefit of the ex-
position officials. The spectacle was a
revelation. There was no blare of arc
lights, but i~ncandescent bulbs cleaned
everywhere on lamp posts in hugh
clusters, along the architectural lines
of facades. on caves and roof beams
in crossing lines on the convex surfaces
of domes, running to the peaks of min
erets. and 10000 of them bursting into
great splendor on the electric tower,
outlining the delicate traeery of its or
nate ~filagreed panels in a lustrous glow
and throwing the entire shaft OF ivory
and gold into translucent relief.
Viewed from points Of vantage down
town, the picture was indeed a beautiful
one to every one suggesting its name

bead on him and a bullet pierced his
body just below the heart. Mcmillan

lose much time in getting started over the
hills and in a couple of hours came across

officers by hiding in some bushes. He
was handcuffed and brought under guard
to the Fayette county Jail, where he is

suffered severely from shock and brutal
treatment. Her friends and relatives
swear vengeance swift and terrible on the
negroes if they can get them from the Of
ficers.
