HOME CITY Has LITTLE
SYMPATHY FOR SULLY

PROVIDENCE. r. l., March 1S.-The an
rouncement of the embarrassment of Dam
iel j. Sully came as a blow to the cotton
trade. Mr.. Sully belongs in this city. and
his daring operations have been followed
closely. Many local spectators followed his
example and advice, and not a few profited
handsomely last year. In manufacturing
circles however, there has been little SYM
pathy for Sully, and millowners and manu-
facturers were prominent in expressing be-
liefs that the suspension would do much to-
ward relieving the uncertain situation IN the
textile trade.

FAMOUS SAFE-BLOWER
 IS CAPTURED IN FLORIDA
Frank Duncan, Wanted in Birmingham and Under Death Sentence, is Lodged in Prison.
 Acquisition Applied For.

Birmingham, Sept. 3o.-(special)- sheriff Burgin of Jefferson County, has received information and picture an- nouncing that Frank Duncan, the mo- ted safe blower and murderer. who es- caped jail here in 1902 while under senteace of death for the killing of policeman c. W. Kirkley. was captured in Florida. near Paiatka, and was be- ing held in Q county jail in that State for blowing q safe there.
 sheriff Burgin has already made pre- parations to bring the man back, there being but little doubt as to the identity Reouistion papers will be secured at once at Montgomery and an officer will tourney to Florida after the man. It is believed that the Florida officers will give Ducan up when the requisi- ton papers are presented inasmuch as murder is charged in this State and only burglary and grand larceny in in Florida.
 According to the information at hand here Duncan was arrested few hours after blowing safe Tn Florida On his person was found money and d watch, which were in the safe. Then copies of his picture were sent out. The authorities at Jacksonville re- CelYSQ a copy Ok thS PhOlV6t6ph anu immediately compared 1t to the photo- graphs which were sent out by Sher- in Burgin shortly after Duncan es- caped from the county jail here. The results of the comparison was that 1t was decided that the man was wanted Tn Birmingham.
 Duncan was member of the famous safe-bIowtng gang headed by Frank Miller and Frank Duncan. They rob- bed the safe of the Standard oil Com pany in the southwestern portion oi the city. The authorities were noti' fled and the entire police force were or the lookout.
 oficers Kirkley and J. H. Adams came across Miller and Duncan and took them in charge. They claimed that they were railroad men. On the way to the police station the prisoners pulled their pistols and began firing Both officers fell. nnortally wounded dying inside of weak.

 For the week ending Thursday night the reports show that l4,es3 bales of cotton were shipped from Montgomery against 7,026 the same week of last year and that the stock on hand was 13,sli against e.56S last year.
 It was pointed out yesterday that these figures are not literally correct as cotton Is reported "shipped' when 1t is sold for shipment and delivered to the congresses. Some 1000 bales of cotton in the streets of Montgomery has been shipped" and will be in that condition until It has been actually delivered to the congresses.
 City May Take Action.
 The city mak take action to have the cotton removed from the streets. Mayor Carr said yesterday that city ordinance prohibited obstruction of the streets. The city, he said. would hesi- tate before throwing an obstacle in the way of cotton trade but he thought something should be done and done quickly to relieve the congestion.
