Special to Times Republican.
New Hampton. April 2S.--.A bold at
tempt was made to rob the bank at
Lawler, but the thieves were frustrated
and after a chase lasting twenty hours
were rounded up and are now IN Jali
here awaiting trial. LAWYER is a smaH
town about five miles east of this place
on the Milwaukee road. Late Saturday
evening 1t was discovered that gang
of burglars had laid plans for robbing
the bank. The officers here were no.
titled and went to Lawler and a plan
was laid to capture the gang, after they
had commenced thir operations on the
safe and vault. Secrete,i in an empty
building awaiting the action of the rob-
bers the sheriff and his posse awaited
patiently the coming events, but their
plans were spoiled by a sudden move
on the part of the robbers, together
with the night Waterman of Lawier.
The night officer had been given his
post to the side of the bank building
but he was unable to get there without
being seen by the fellows in operation
at the bank window, SO he slipped along
the street and when coming as close 10
the bank as possible he laid down IN
the gutter where he could observe ali
that was going on. The robbers made
a large hole in the plate glass WINDOW
through which they could enter the
bank. but instead of immediately max
ing their entrance they all returned to
the edge OF the street to investigate
whether or not their movements in
breaking the window had been OBJ
served by anyone. In looking UP the
street. they observed the night officer
living in the gutter and seeing that
they observed him he opened fire
on the gang who Immediately took
to the woods without securing the
booty.
The sheriff and his posse immediate
ly gave chase to the robbers, who scat
tered in many directions in order TO
make a clean getaway Two OF the
fellows were captured before they had
some far. but the remaining three made
good time for their liberty. The two
fellows taken refused to make any
statements to the officers and were
taken to the county Jail at New Hamp-
ton to await the action of the officers.
THE posse continued in the chase of the
other three men and after a long tramp
after them. finally wound them up late
Sunday evening and escorted them to
prison here They refused to give their
names. When searched the last three
men taken proved to be the ringleaders
of the gang, for upon them We're found
all the necessary tools for making a
successful job of any safe. A pop bot.
tia containing nitro glycerine. together
with drills, jimmies and other burglars
tools. were removed from the fellows
before they we're confined in their cells.
They refused to give their names.

They Kept a Bible For Luck.

At Sycamore, Ill, well known bust
ness firm makes it practice to keep a
Bible in the safe. The custom was
commenced long time ago, and the
big steel box Is never locked up unless
it contains the book. 1t is kept in the
money drawer of the safe. 1t is found
necessary to remove it occasionally, but
it is always carefully replaced.
The men who adopted this queer
practice when they commenced bust
ness years ago have little to say in ex-

but all are liberal in their religious
views, and the prevailing belief in the
town Is that Holy Writ is kept in the
safe principally for good luck.-Chi-

WOMAN ourwlTs DEcElvER.
Saves Her Daughter From the Clutch
es Of an Iowa Man.

Special to Times Republican
Cedar Rapids, April 26.-The clever
work OF woman In Missouri uncover
ed the deceit which a Cedar Rapids
man had practiced upon her daughter
and whereby he had won her love, in
time to prevent a marriage which would
mean only degradation and disgrace to
the deluded victim. Photographs were
exchanged while the mother began q
correspondence with the police here
and at Burlington.
The first letter from the mother was
written to Chief OF Police Kozlovsky
April IL. 1t stated that the man gave
the name of w. Il. Condor, and de-
scribed the man, as partially given
above 1t implored the chief OF police
to do what he could to add the mother
whose daughters future happiness and
honor were at stake. The chief ans
wered the letter with the description
of a man known here as w. r. Condron,
who it appears is a travelling agent at
times and sometimes q barber on the
west side.
Some photographs were sent to her
one of them being a single, view OF
Condron and the other a group pic
ture showing himself, his wife and
family.
1t happened that the same day these
were received by the mother. new
cabinet picture of the man was received
by the daughter with letter saying
that he would soon be there and that
they would be married about the 10th or
18th OF May A comparison of the two
photographs was enough to satisfy the
mother that her suspicious had been
well grounded and the daughter that
she had been cruelty deceived.

TARIFF AS THE ISSUE.
Likely That the Campaign Will be
AIona Tariff Lines.

\
Along Tariff Lines.
Washington. April 26.-From the
way the political situation shapes UP in
congress in these last days of the ses-
sion, ii appears likely the next cam
paign will be fought largely upon the
tariff issue. The democrats are giving
indications more plainly every day OF
1 their attention to fall back upon free
ltrade { s their platform. Coupled with
their cry for free trade will be the
claim that il will relieve the trust sit
| uation.
| The democracy under Grover Cleve-
land stood for free trade pure and sim
pie anG for free trades sake only. The
| democracy OF today stands for free
trade sts the antithel of the protec-
tive tariff and in &C 4 zion offers it as
| a panacea FOR the trust evil. The old
| single bore free trade rifle is thus ex-
| changed for the double barrel free trade
antitrust shotgun Both are weapons
leveled against the American working
man.
Republican leaders in congress were
in conference upon this turn in the sit
uatfon. They are laying their plans
swiftly and surely to meet the demo-
Gratis Upon the free trade issue and to
hold them to it. The campaign mana
gers who are to conduct the fight for
congress are ransacking the congress
sional record and digging out all the
free trade democratic speeches they can
find.
Bourke Cochran's TRADE of last Sat
urday against the protective tariff prin-
ciples Of the republican party especially
will be circulated as a republican CAM
paign document. The republicans think
1t is good politics to let the workingmen
of the country realize from one OF the
accepted leaders of the democracy just
what they may expect If the demo-
Gratis ;yet into power. The scars which
the Wilson tariff act left upon the la
Dor OF this country are still remem-
bered and the republicans believe the
memory Of the aaboringsnan is not so
short that he has forgotten the hor-
rors that followed the enactment of that
inquitous measure by democratic con-
gress.
And yet, the bill, disastrous as 1t
was to the industries of this country Is
not marker to what Mr.. Cochran
fact that Grover Cleveland would not
sign j.. because 1t was not radical
enough. He allowed 1T to become law
under the ten day constitutional provi-
sion and regretted that the bill did not
go far enough in tearing down Amer
lean Industrial institutions.
The democracy o. today in congress
that Endorsed Mr.. C'ochran's free trade
sentiments would Guido the Wilson bill.
This was shown In the applause which
was gwen him when he said the saving
to the number of 600, put
on by the senate would have been re-
fused by the house, democrats If they
had Possessed the power successfully
to resist. The republicans will go joy
ously into the campaign against the
party which enunciates such radical
free trade doctrine as its policy, and
there is every indication that the dem
ocrats propose to Go it.
