Chief of Detectives Desmond yesterday
resumed his work at the Four Courts aft
er seven weeks spent in Mexico and de-
voted most of his time to the formula
ton OF plans for the capture OF the safe
blowers who committed the foregoing rob-
berries.
The chief detailed detectives to work on
the cases. and he declares that he will
soon have the cracksmen in his Sweat
box"
II want those men and want them bad
ly," said the Chief. est. Louis has been
practically free from the work Of such
men for two years, and 1t is annoying to
me to say the least to have them begin
work again. They can't work much long
err, as we are determined to break up the
gang"
Chief OF Police Kelly and Chief Desmond
held conference yesterday morning. and
they discussed the robberies in all their
phases.
Assistant Chief of Detectives John J.
Kelly is considered one Of the experts of
the department on safes.
while these fellows are producing re-
Suits" said Chief Keely. their work looks
like that Of amateurs. The Tuxedo Laun-
dry case Is especially SO. They drilled a
hole near the bottom and at the left side
of the safe door and put the charge in
there. They found 1t necessary to put in
two charges before they got the door
open.'
when We get these men you'll find that
they are what we call yegmen. They work
the country in the summer selling cheap
jewelry and come into the cities in the
winter to lay around the cheap saloons.
All they need to blow a safe Is the drills,
a sledge hammer. a piece of soap and a
little nitroslycerin.
What warning would I give to business
men for better protection Of their places?"
asked the Chief.
Although Chief Kelly has notified all
the Captains to instruct their men to keep
close watch on offices where safes are
known to be kept, my advice Is that these
business firms should also tell the police
men on the beat Of the presence Of a safe
In their office. The policemen could not be
expected to know where all safes are kpt.
but If he is informed by the firms he will
be able to keep a closer watch on the
offices on his beat"
The police investigated the report yester-
day that the engineer at the Tuxedo Laun-
dry had been drugged by the robbers to
get him out of the way, and Chief Keely
stated yesterday afternoon that he had
found that there was no truth to the re-
mort

Tariff and Wages.

One of the highest protected indus.
tries is the flint glass trust In fact,
the duties on all kinds of glass were
intended to be prohibitive. The result
of this Republican legislation has been
an enormous increase in the price OF
glass; some Kinds more than doubling
since the Dinsley tariff law was enact
ed. According to the theory Of the pro-
tectionists ne high tariff on glass
should make its manufacture the most
prosperous for the workers engaged in
it, but an Associated Press dispatch
from Pittsburg on Nov. q announces
that an average reduction of 20 per
cent in wages has been ordered by the
Flint Glass association, and about 1000
men are affc ted
If the cost Of living could be reduced
in the same proportion, we would all
hail the day f reduced wages, but the
trusts who produce or control the price
of nearly all the necessities of life show
no signs of letting up in their eNac-
tions. Prosperity in Pittsbur@ is not
tuned up to the high key that the high
tariff defenders would have us bele"e.
and yet our Republican congress re.
fuses to consider tariff reform.
