CHARGED WITH
BOLD ROBBERY
Charles Blocker Says That
George p. Farmer and John
A. HI. Umbach Held Him Up

George P. Farmer and John A. H.
Umbach were booked at the City Prison
yesterday by Detective Bell and Police
men Moriarity, Wilson and Tobin on a
charge of robbery. The complaining
witness is Charles Blocker, clerk in the
checkroom at the St. Francis Hotel.
Blocker and the two defendants lived
in a lodging-house at rs Eighth street.
Farmer, who was employed in the en-
gine-roOm az the st. Francis, occupied
room with Umbach. Blocker says
that last Sunday night about o'clock
Umbach knocked on the door of his
room and entered. After lighting a
cigarette Umbach asked Blocker to
show him photograph that he kept in
his trunk. Blocker opened the trunk
and took out the photograph.
The trunk had been left open, and
while Umbach was looking at the pho
tograph he gave a peculiar cough and
Farmer came into the room Blocker
says that Farmer pulled a revolver out
Of his pocket and pointing it at Blocker
said: Now we have got you just where
we want you If you don't give us some
money we will blacken your character" :"

and while one carried his clothing and
other articles to their room the other
kept MIN covered with a revolver. After
taking his watch from his pocket and
leaving him nothing but the clothes he
was wearing they left the room, threat
ening to kill him if he said anything to
the police.
Blocker was so afraid of their threats
that he kept his mouth shut but when
they called upon him at the hotel late
Wednesday night and again threatened
to blacken his character unless he gave
them money he determined to notify
the police the following day. This he
did. Farmer was arrested on Friday
and Umbach yesterday afternoon. In
their room and on their persons when
searched all OF the property taken from
Blocker was found and it was booked
as evidence against them.

PRETTY WOMAN
HIS UNDOINC
Sherman Harris, a Theatri-
cal Man, Supposed to Have
Swallowed Dose of Opium
ENAMORED OF A DANCER
She Prefers Wealthy Resi-
dent Of Shanghai, Which
Starts Him on a Debauch

Unrequited love seems to have
caused Sherman Harris to COM
nit scuicide in his room at
the Metropolitan Hotel 129 Third
street, on Friday. He was found
in an unconscious condition and
taken to the Central Emergency Hos
pital, where he died. Death was sup
posed to have been due to opium pois-
oning. An autopsy was made on the
body at the Morgue, but as the cause
of death could not be determined the
stomach was sen the City Chemist
for analysis.
Captain Burnett detailed Detectives
Braig and Mulcahy on the case and
yesterday they submitted their report
to him. They ascertained that Harris
was a theatrical man and had been on
a tour of the Orient, the Philippine
Islands and the Antipodes. In his
company was a very beautiful woman
known as Carmencillia, a serpentine
dancer. Harris was deeply in love
with her and she seemed to recipro-
cate his affection.

MARKS AN ERA
IN JOURNALISM
How the News of the Battling
Before Port Arthur Was
Gathered and Distributed
LONG CABLE MESSAGES
Thousands of Words Are
Sent by Wire Under Ocean
Without Regard to Cost
LONG CABLE MESSAGES

One of the greatest achievements Of
modern journalism and one that shows
the far-reaching effects of combined
efforts, was the story of battling before
Port Arthur printed in The Call of
Friday morning. A graphic descrip-
ton of one of the greatest sieges the
world has ever seen was carried by
cable a distance approximating 5000
miles. The message was the longest
one that has ever been cabled across
the Pacific.
For six months a representative of
the Associated Press had been with
the Japanese army before the forts,
enduring the hardships of soldiers
life, subsisting on the same fare as
the sturdy little fighting men and TAX
ing the same risks. During all this
time not a word had been heard from
him by the officers of the association.
Suddenly there came an intimation
that there was to be a story.
Without waiting to query" as to
the number of words he would be pe~-
mitted to send, this enterprising news
gatherer placed a message on the wire.
which in its condensed form consisted
OF 4374 words; when the articles, ad-
jectives and conjunctions were sup
piled at this end of the line there was
a graphic descriptive story of about
1000 words, giving the information
which people have so eagerly sought
but heretofore have been unable to
obtain. To show the enterprise of the
Associated Press and its willingness
10 obtain the news at whatever cost
no better illustration ttan this is re-
quired. The cable tolls alone for the
4374 words at SO cents (gold) per
word is a considerable item.
The correspondent has been absent
six months gathering this information.
A correspondent is kept at Chefu and
the news he sends out, though reliable,
is not authoritative, owing to the
secrecy of the Japanese Government.
The Japanese, finally realizing that the
Associated Press was carrying moth
ing but reliable news. finally permitted
the correspondent at the front to send
through an uncensored message de-
scribing in detail what had been done.
He Immediately chartered a boat, went
to Chefu and handed his copy to the
Associated Press representative there,
returning at once to the firing line.
From Chefu the story of the battles
was forwarded TO Shanghai, thence to
Hongkong, where it was relayed to
Manila and turned over to the Pacinc
Cable Company for transmission to
this country.
This breaking down of the strict
wall of censorship and giving to the
public the news, regardless of cost
illustrates what is being done to give
the public reliable news of the great
current events in the worlds history.
1t has been the policy of Melville E..
Stone, now head of the Associated
Press. to use the cable as freely as a
school girl would use a free telephone.
Formerly but a few words would have
been wired around by way of London
and full accounts would follow by
mail. Now, without asking for per-
mission, reliable correspondents send
thousands of words direct from the
seat of war.

THURSDAY NOVEMBER "a, 1904
Thanksg

This is the day on which the peo-
pie all over this great nation give
thanks for the blessings which they
have received the past year. The
hearts OF many will overflow with
thankfulness and love for their God
and fellowman, while others will
wonder and ask themselves what they
have to be thankful for. Truly, "the
Kingdom of Heaven is within you"
and insofar as you have developed
that kingdom just that measure of
thalkfulness will you feel. 1t is not
a question of worldly goods those
with the greatest wealth are often the
most unhappy. 1t is "a question OF
love for your God, your country and
your neighbor. If your heart is filed
with love for all mankind and all
nature you will be thankful thrice
over and to you this day will have a
most beautiful significance. Though
you may have had sorrow and trouble
that has shaken the depths of your
being, if you have "A heart full of love
you will rejoice in the happiness of
others and out of your sorrow and
cares will come that peace which,
passeth all understanding.
Ii it were not for the clouds and
storms of life we would not appreciate
the sunshine and calm. 1t is only
by contrast we see the beauty of
nature and of life. If all were sun
shine, all calm, life would become
monotonous, and then truly one
could say, what have | to be thank
full for"
In listing your blessings, no matter
how manifold they may be, if your
heart does not respond with love and
gladness you are losing the most
beautiful part of Thanksgiving day,
Tor they are the most essential in
making this a day of rue thankful
ness.
