ROBBERIbN NOT
AMATRURN WORK
After Gaining an Entrance
Burglars Opened All
Doors TO Yard

The robberies in the northwestern
part of the city ON Tuesday night, and
those in the southwestern sections on
Wednesday evening are believed to
have been the work of professionals.
The manner in which the windows
were forced open showed the skilled
hand and not the bungling work of an
amateur
A jimmy was used To raise the win
dow sashes. After getting into the
homes The thieves took precaution to
prevent themselves being caught i'm a
trap. In almost every case, all the
doors leading to the rear of the houses
we're proppcd open and the doors lead
ing into the yards opened. This was
done to insure escape for the burglars
in case they we're discovered. The
marks of the jimmies can be plainly
seen ON the windows.
In cutting the telephone wires from
the house of L. p. Bush. No. Col Clay
ton street. the thieves again took pre-
caution against discovery There is
no clue to the identity of the rob
|bers.

stranger Tried to Persuade Local Men to
Take the Place Of NtrikerS

A short time ago a man giving hie
name as Charles Alexander came to
this city and registered at the Pennsyl-
vania House. He said he was here in
search of firemen and engineers, whom
he wanted to send to Wilkesbarre, Pa.
and take the place of strikers. He was
lwilling TO pay the firemen $3.50 a dan
and the engineers 81. He said he had
jalready sent some men from Philadel-
phia- He wanted ten fremen and six
engineers to work for him.
Alexander spoke to Mr.. Mulrooney
the proprietor of the Pennsylvania
House. about his mission here. and
made many inquiries about men. Mr.
Mulrooney told him he knew several
engineers and firemen in this city, but
was sure they would not leave and
take the place of the strikers. He said
he told Alexander the people of Della
ware are too honorable for that.
Alexander remained in the city for a
few days and tried to persuade several
men to go back to Wilkesbarre with
him. but was unsuccessful. When he
found he could not succeed here he
left as quietly as he had come, and Mr..
MulrConey does not know where he
went.

.SENATE'ADOPTS
PANAMA ROUTE
Passes SpOOner Amendment
by Vote Of ~ to "a
NOW IN PRESIDENTS HANDS
Only Question Left Open Is Title TO
the PrOperty-BOnd Issue Pro-
Vided For
NOW IN PRESIDENTS HANDS

Washington, June 20.-The senate
yesterday, by n majority Of eight votes
adopted the Spooner substitute for the
Hepburn Nicaragua canal bill, the vote
on the substitute being AZ to a. After
two amendments to the measure had
been adopted, one providing for COM
mission TO supervise the construction
of the canal and the other providing
for the issuance Of $3.50, 900 Of per
cent gold bonds TO raise money with
which to construct the waterway, It
was passed by vote Of 67 to 6.
Il has been evident for several days
that the spooner substitute would
command the votes OF a majority Of the
senate. The Panama route was consid-
cred more desirable by the senate than
the Nicaragua route. The only ques-
tion left open is the title TO the prop
erty, and that the president will deter
mine if the house should adopt the
senate's amendment to its bill.
Mr. Morgan, of Alabama, closed yes
terday's debate with an earnest appeal
for the adoption of the Nicaragua
route. He had been preceded by Mr..
Clark. of Montana, in support of the
Spooner proposition. Only minor
amendments, except those indicated.
were adopted, all others being voted
down.
The Spooner amendment, as amended
and adopted by the senate, provides
that the president through the law Off
GERS Of the government, shall deter
mine whether a clear title can be OBJ
tanned of the Panama company's prop
ertl, rights and concessions. If he shall
be satisfied that such title can be OBJ
tained, he shall purchase the property
rights and concessions for $4,000, ,0O0
IT, in his opinion. a clear title cannot
be obtained he shall proceed to con-
struct an isthmian canal by the Mica
ragua route. The bill further provides
that a commission of seven shall be
appointed by the president to supervise
the work and TO make arrangements
for all the details of It. II also pro-
vides that gold bonds in the sum OF
s1S0,000,0OO, bearing per cent. inter
est, shall be issued TO raise money with
which to construct the canal.
