DECLINES TO INTERFERE
Roosevelt Has No Sympathy
for d RdpiSt

Washington, Aug. S-President Roosc-

the Jail of the District of Columbia, un-
der sentence OF death for the crime of
criminal assault. the victim being a liz
lie 4l4-year-old girl. The President has
directed that the sentence Of the jury be
carried into effect on August Is, as de-
creed.
In denying the plea of the negro for
mmutat.on of sentence the President
said:
The application for the Communication
of sentence of John w. Burley is denied.
This man committed the most hideous
crime known to our laws and twice be-
fore he has C mmitted crimes of a sim

that he is not of sound mind. allegations

Under such circumstances he should

have scant sympathy with the plea OF
insanity advanced to save man from
the consequences of crime, which unless
the crime had been committed IL would
have been impossible to persuade any
reasonable authority to commit him to an

THE crime in question is one to the
existence of which we largely owe the
existence of that spirit of lawlessness
which takes form in lynching. 1t is a
crime so revolving that the criminal is
not entitled to enc particle OF sympathy

A FORTUNE IN GEMS
SiOIen from a Wealthy Resi-
dent of Newport

New York, Aug. S.-For more than
month the most skillful detectives at
taohed to tne Pinkerton agency and the
police of the Eastern cities lave been
robbery ever perpetrated in this country.
Diamonds and ether precious stones val
red at about 100000 were stolen on June
q from the Newport residence of we'll
known New York family, whose name is
withheld because of the fear that pub
iicity might aid the escape of the thieves
Orders have been issued to spare no ex-
pense or lab-r to find the robbers and re-
store the gems. and every suggestion tina,
could lead to their discovery has been ex-
haustively covered, but thus far the case
is sill involved in mystery.
No effort has been relaxed. however,
and the detectives are confident that they
win clear up the case. For weeks past
et!y given to pawnbrokers and diamond
dealers throughout She country in order
that no opportunity should be offered for
the disD sition Of the articles
1t is known that the victims of this gi-
gantic robbery are among the weanniest
and most prominent of the summer res.
idents of Newport. For this reason. as
well as for the possible advantage the
thieves m ght have gained from the ex-
element following publicity, the utmost
secrecy has been maintained concerning
the case.
Since the beginning of the present New
port season there has been an IN Is ua4.y
large number of robberies of wealthy res
idents there. and the theory has been en-
-ertained that the present case may be
the elimination of series of crimes ex-
ocuted by a daring band thoroughly Ia
miliar with the conditi MS and opportuni-
ties of the resort.

From Russia Regarding Con-
trdbdhd Me, ChdnOiSe

Washington Aug S.-'The recognition
other fuel and raw cotton as absolutely
contraband of war. might ultimately lean
to a total inhibition of the sale of neu-
trails to the people of belligerent states, oi
all articles which could be finally convert.
ed to military uses. Such an extension
of the principle by treating co..s and other
fuel and raw cotton as absolutely contra
band of war simply because they are
shipped by neutral or non blockaded
port of a belligel ent, would not appear to
be in accord with the reasonable and law
ful rights of neutral commerce"
This is summary of a decision by
Secretary Hay ON the right of neutral
nations during war. 1t was emb died in
circular to American ambassadors In
Europe, which was issued from the state
department June 10 last, but for some rea-
son was withheld from the public, al
though certain shippers who inquired at
the department after their rights were
supplied with copies,
The circular Is based on a declaration
by the Russian government that C, AL
naphtha, alcohol and other fuel have been
declared contraban6,
Secretary Hay directs attention to the
West Africa conference in 1884 when Rus
sia "Took occasion to dissent v.gor usly
from the inclusion of coal amongst artI-
cles contraband of war, and declared that
she would categorically refuse her n
sent to any articles in any treaty. or an
strument whatever that wou,u imply It's
