They regard the risk as too great. Luck

no robber has been killed or hurt by their

''It is only question of time" said
Chief Kiely until these robbers are

THE person who thinks that We can

knows little OF nothing of police work and
expects the impossible.
Il am perfectly satisfied with the work

$3.50 Is fairly good weekly salary.
For highway robber, who runs the
risk of being killed or arrested and sent
to the Penitentiary for a term of years
not less than tive-it cannot be considered
good pay
The police since November 10 have re-

amount of money taken was sl0O10. The
estimated value of watches. diamonds,
total of s765.1O.
In these sixteen robberies twenty-four
men took part 1t is quite probable that
the same men took part in more than
one of the jobs, consequently their income
for the week has been greater than that
of the others.
The men who robbed Theodore Ingola
Thursday night, and took his diamond
stud, which he valued at s400. and his
watch. the estimated value of which Is
$780, made the largest haul. but 1t Is
hardly probable that they VIII get more
than half value out of the stolen articles.
The police have arrested seven men
who took part in the robberies. They have
been identified, and warrants have been
issued against them.

Paris. Nov. 2S.A tragic sequel to the
wedding of Miss Roosevelt Scovel to Count
Fabbr.ootti last Wednesday in Florence
has just been announced. 1t is the suicide
of the Marquis Ettoire Faraldi of Pisa,
at Monte Carlo. .--. D..
1t is known that Faraldi was long en-
amoured of Miss Scovel, and a friend has
revealed the fact that he announced he
would kill himself on the day Miss Scovel
welded another.
A first hurried investigation of his af-
fairs led to the belief that Faraldi has
committed suicide because of losses III
gambling. 1t is now believed. however
that he chose Monte Carlo as the scene
of death out Of chivalrous regard for the
feelings of Miss Scovel.
Faraldi was extremely popular. He was
90, tall and decidedly handsome, being
unusually fair IN complexion for an Ital-
ian. He was once an attache OF the le-
cation at Buenos Ayres and spent two
winters in Washington some years ago.
1t was there that he first met Miss
Scovel.
He was noted swordsman and an all
around athlete.
