ACCUSED OF STEALING AUTO
Man Giving Name of Mckenzie Is
Charged With Taking Morley's
Machine

An alleged automobile thief was
picked up at Main and Pico streets last
night at midnight by Patrolman Roy
Allen. The man first gave the name of
Gordon, but finally confessed that
George F. Mckenzie was his correct
name. When arrested he was driving
a machine belonging to James Morley,
the baseball magnate, at a furious rate
OF speed south on Main street. Allen
knew the machine and hailed the
driver. who put on more speed and at
tempted to escape. Allen jumped on
the back Of the car and shut of the
power himself
The car in question has been stolen
three times previously, and up to this
time no trace could be found of the
thief. 1t was standing in front of the
Spring street billiard room belonging
to Morley, and he did not know the
auto was gone until 1t was returned to
him by Allen.
Mckenzie stated that he was in the
employ of the Home Telephone COM
pany, and that he thought the car be-
longed to Gordon.
Allen says the lights of the car were
all eXtinguished when Mckenzie was
apprehended, and he was running the
car with the sole light of small elec-
tric hand lamp.

safe and opened them. The startled
cashier saw at once what had been
done and Immediately notified the 9TH
er officials of the bank and the po-
lice and detectives. A hasty examina-
ton was made of the safe and 1t was
at first believed that the losses
amounted to $4,000, but upon later ex-
animation of the books and the fact
that most of the money deposited at
the bank is kept at the Central bank,
developed that the losses could not ex-
ceed $4,000 at the most.
When the robbery of the bank be-
came known by the Japanese deposit
ors in the institution it was feared
that run would be made upon it,
The officials at the Central bank,
through which the robbed establish
ment clears, supplied the bank with
100000. A message telling of the rob-
berry was also sent to the parent bank
in San rancisco and the latter replied
that any amount could be loaned from
it upon moments notice. The local
institution will not suffer in the least
by the loss.
An unidentified man was seen COM
ing out of the alley adjoining the BIZ
cycle shop at 2 o'clock yesterday morn
ing. The officer on that beat stopped
the man and inquired of him his busi-
ness and what took him In the vicinity
at the hour Of o'clock. Satisfactory
explanation was given, says the officer,
and the man was allowed to go.

threat
On other occasions too numerous to
mention he stood before me and held

He kept this bottle with him for the
greater part of the time. You see
this he said
well, you will get it some day, and
that will be the end of you. His threats
were so insistent that for two months
before 1 left him 1 was compelled to
examine every bite of food 1 put in my
mouth for fear 1t had been poisoned.
even examined the water L drank.
"One of his final exhibitions of vi
ciousness was when he came home and
demanded that sell the farm and give
him $1,000, which, he said, it was very
necessary that he have.
II refused to sell the place, where
upon he became desperately enraged and
threw me into my bedroom and locked
the door. He then put the key in his
pocket and left the house, and 1t was
several hours before 1 managed to free
myself and escape. For two weeks be-
fore L left him 1 could not sleep be-

daughter Mabel. 1 have never tried to
get a divorce before because 1 dreaded

YOUNG MINEk 3AvEs LIMITED.
Royal Blue Stopped Within Six Feet
Of RocksIide.

Pittsburg,. March 6.-To the quick
young miner, more than 800 passen-
gers on the Chicago bound Baltimore
and Ohio Royal Blue limited train,
owe hairbreadth escape from death
by collision with one Of the dreaded
rock slides Of eastern mountain passes.
Only for the miner boys prompt ac-
ton the train, the. pride of the Balti-
more and Ohio system, and laden with
persons on their way home from the
inaugural, would have been reduced to
wreckage at 9 o'clock last night on a
lonely stretch Of track one mile from
Shaner and at a point twenty two
miles southeast of P:ittsburg.
Hundreds Of tons Of rock, sweeping
like an avalanche, from the crest of a
bluff that lowered high above the
roadbed, crashed down on the track
just as the limited, making speed of
fifty miles an hour, dashed thru the
hamlet of Shaner. Bones, who is %
years old and lives in shanty near
the track. heard the roar of the land
slide and also the sound Of the APP
preaching train. Rushing from his
home with a lantern and waving it
wildly, he ran in the direction of the
oncoming limited. j. B. Coughanour,
the engineer, who was making his first
run on passenger locomotive, caught
the signal, reversed the throttle and
applied the air brakes. The heavy
train slid over the rail, but at rapidly
reducing speed, and came to stand
still within six feet Of the mass Of
powders which blocked the way.
