Offices for Gold.
Martinsburg Last Place Yisited-A
Handsome Girl Precedes the Gang
and Spots the Ofiiees-Interesting
story of the Personnel of the Gang.

The robbers of dentists offices are
going away from Morgantown, for
which the local dentists are truly
thankful. They are making their
way down the main line of the b. 81
o. and have reached Martinsburg. A
dispatch from that place says:
"Robbers entered the office Of Dr.
E. L. Smith last night or yesterday
and stole gold leaf and gold in bridge
and crown work to the amount of 5000.
They are thought to be the same men
who entered the Offices Of doctors and
dentists at Fairmont, Grafton and
Clarksburg recently.
All the other offices of dentists were
entered, bGt as the owners are away

thing was taken

Her sweetheart, the chief and leader

man watches the streets and two

ton in Bankruptcy in
II. S. Court.
LIABILITIES MOSTLY SECURED
Enlisted in the Marine Corps for a
Term of Three Years and Sent to
Manila, Where He Was Known as
"The Millionaire Marine"

New York, Aug. 14.-Edward l..
Dwyer fled a petition in bankruptcy
with the clerk of the United States
district court The liabilities are
fixed at s874.S55 and assets $3.50.
Among the creditors are the estate Of
Granville S. Ingraham, of Chicago,

ton, Conn, $4,000; George NJ Bogue,

Boston, $4,000; the estate of Culver
G.. Thyng, Olean, N. Y, $4,000, and
Kelly Tucker, New Haven, $4,000.
Most of the liabilities are secured.
The history of Edward l.. Dwyer
reads like romance. He was born in
Connecticut 43 years ago, and at the
age of % went to Mexico, where he
realized million dollars through the
development of land and the construc-
ton of 8 railroad. Then he went to
Chicago and entered into wheat spec
ulation, and for some time was known
as the Napoleon Of the wheat pit. /"
In his wheat speculation, it is said, he
made several million dollars, but
finally lost all.
In 1893 he met and married the
Duchess de Castelluchia, a New York
woman who many years previously
had been married to an,,Italian noble
man. TIE duchess Possessed. many
acres ,stiorange groves fssFlorida. She
was 70 years of age akd DwSer 33.
Not long after the Marriage Mrs
Dwyer died, leaving an estate of over
100000. She bequeathed $40 Of this
amount to Dwyef. The will was fought
for six years, but finally was admitted
to probate by the surrogate of New
York city.
After the death Of his aged wife
Dryer went all over the west organic:
ing mining and land companies. many
of which are said to have returned
vast sums of money to the investors
of which he says he has received lit
tie or nothing.
In 1900 Dwyer enlisted in the ma
rine corps in the Brooklyn navy yard
for term of three years and was sent
tC Manila, where he was known as
'the millionaire marine" After one
years service, however, on the appli
cation of friends, he received an hon
| oiable discharge.

BOLD BURGLARY.
Tapping of Money Till at B. &
o. Has Puzzling Features.
0fllce Was Empty Only About Twenty
Minutes $40 Taken and SIS Left
Office Was Money Till
was Locked-No Violence Used
Mr.. Wright Made Loss Coed.

Mr.. Wright Made Loss Coed.
The robbery of the money drawer in
the 3. & O. ticket Office here yester.
day was one Of the boldest ever com.
mitted, and has many peculiar fea-
lures, which puzzle the police, and
which rendered it more mysterious as
it Is more closely investigated.
Mr.. j. w. Wright, the b. u O..
agent, left about noon to go to his
dinner. ]. w. Thornton, the tele-
graph operator, usually remains in the
Office while Wright is out. Yester-
day, he went out for his dinner, leav-
ing the office empty for about 20 min
utes, not longer.
When the agent returned, he I'M
locked the door, inserted the key in
the money till, and left it. Later, he
opened the till, and counted the mon
ely. There was $48. Is. He had left
$21S.l5 cents in the drawer. Part OF
this was in bills, part in checks, and
there was some coin, Mr.. Wright
remembered of leaving 3 ten dollar
bills on top Of book in the money
drawer. These were taken Some
| five dollar bills, some checks and some
coin was in that which was left. The
purpose Of the thief in leaving so much
cannot be satisfactorily explained .
He may have left it to prevent Mr.
Wright from making the discovery
He may have left it because he was
ia hurry to get away.
As soon as Mr., Wright made the
discovery, he notified policeman Yoke
who responded at once. Chief Price
and Yoke went up the railroad to-
wards the pump station, and arrest
ed negro and white man who
could not give satisfactory account
of themselves. The white man said
his name was Graham, and that he
was from PittsDurg. He was en- his
way there, and had come from Graf
ton on foot. Both negro and white
man were locked up.
Graham and the negro were seer
around the station 1t is said, ano
Graham is said to have carried small
satchel. This he did not have wher
arrested, and has never made any in
quiries about it.
Thornton who left the office last
says it was locked, and that he put
the windows down. The entrance is
supposed to have been made through
the small window next to the bulletin
board. This was up a few inches
when Thornton returned, but he il
not sure he put it down close.
The money drawer had not been
broken open, but Mr.. Wright says The
lock works as though it had beer
tempered with. He made the los:
good yesterday evening by persona

TWO CENTS
OPEN FOR TRAVEL.
First Half Mile Section of West
Side Road Completed.

Gates Taken Down Yesterday Section
of travel Road to be Built Down
Toward ille-Goyernment SUI
peryisors, Harrison and Sheets May
Remain to See This Completed.
Travel has been resumed on the
west side road which had been
closed for several weeks ON account
of the work Of macadamizing. The
gates were taken down Yesterday.
and will remain down.
The last gap and section OF one
half mile OF the finest road in the
United States was completed today,
and people are now travelling over it.
The government supervisors.
Messrs Harrison and Sheets arc
much pleased with this section OF
road, and consider il one of The finest
they have ever built. Including
the grading down hills, filling an
valleys, widening and draining the
road bed, it is a very complete piece
of work, showing all the processes
of road building.
A crude section OF narrow .swampy
country road has been developed
through all the stages of improve
ment to fine city boulevard. And
while some have questioned its
power to resist heavy hauling III
winter, the government supervisors
who have had experience in the
work insist that it will stand.
The necessary cost of this road is
estimated at about $1,000 per mile,
which seems excessive when com
pared with the cost of road In the
south. But there labor is much
cheaper than here, and stone is often
cheaper and more accessible than
what has been used on this section.
On account Of the sickness of Mr..
MO. Eldridge, no orders for Messrs
Harrison and Sheets to remove to n
new place have been issued. and
they will continue on the road to
Granville while they are allowed to
remain here, and keep the machinery
they are using. Grading further
down the road has been commenced.
1t Is the intention to use gravel from
Dents Run on the first course of
stone on the lower end of the section
and cap it with small broken lime
stone. The gravel will cost nothing
to start with, and transportation
will be much cheaper than trans
portation of the broken limestone
from Sabraton.
Still another section of all gravel
road may be made as sample, so
that the people here may haye an
object lesson in the use of each kind
of stone road. The cost of each
may he learned when it is completed,
and the wearing qualities tried when
the muddy season comes on.
