I. SHOT;
ROBBERS ESCAPE
-Four Chicago Policemen Fire
Fusilade- Innocent Persons
the Victims,

Chicago, Aug. 5.-Four officers Of the
police force last night sent fusilade
Of shots after two robbers who had
stolen goods valued at $4,000 from a
baggage car standing in the yards in
West Sixteenth street.
The thieves escaped without their
booty, but three innocent persons were
shot by the officers, none seriously
however The wounded are:
Lieutenant James Larkin, shot in
the wist; Morris Cohen, shot in leg;
Mrs. Cohen, ear shot off.
The robbers loaded the booty on a
wagon and drove to Israel jacobson g
shop, where they tried to sell the plum
der to Jacobson. He kept them dick
ering while his son ran to notify the
police.
Detective Voss saw the thieves half
a block down Union street and was
first to fire, after his command to halt
had been ignored. Then Lieutenant
Larkin started to empty his gun and
the fusilade, but the robbers hurried
away on foot.
The party turned up Parker street,
and at length returned into Halstead.
Larkin, GREATNESS, halted at the cor
ner a moment, aimed directly at the
fleeing thieves and fire three shots.
Only one took effect, and that in his
own wrist.
Followed by several hundred persons
who had been attracted by the shoot
ing, the thieves ran until they reached
a convenient spot, where they jumped
into buggy and escaped. Cohen and
his wife, who were sitting in front of
their shop, were hit by stray bullets.

RUSSELL SAGE, 50,
TAKES A DAY OFF
His Birthday Anniversary a Holi-
day and Wall Street
Wondered.
lew York Sun Suecial Service.

New York, Aug. 5.-At last Russell
Sage has taken a holiday whole day
off-and it was devoted to the celebra-
ton Of the eighty ninth anniversary Of
the fnancier's birthday.
Wall street was astounded, and, altho
no financial panic resulted from this
unheard-of and almost unbelievable ac-
ton of Mr.. Sage, there was much wor-
ry for a time. Telephones were kept
busy to learn the cause of the rich
man s absence from his post Of duty,
and finally the excitement subsidized and
the day was saved.
At the Sage Offices calm reigned, for
early announcement had been made
that Mr.. Sage would not. appear at all
during the day, but work went on as
usual even without the directing hand
Of the owner Of many millions.
Bright, eager and cheerful as a man
in the early forties, Mr.. Sage spent
the morning in his new town house at
632 Fifth avenue. Save for man
servant and a Waterman, the venerable
fnancier was alone.
Mr.. Sage rose at 8 O'Clock, and at
ter breakfast spent the morning in
reading the newspapers and in receiv-
ing many kilograms and letters Of con-
graduation. Wreaths and bouquets of
flowers from old personal friends made
his room beautiful.
Twenty miles away, at his country
home at Cedarhurst, l.. l., Mrs. Sage
prepared for the celebration Of her hus-
bands birthday, and Mr.. Sage went
out last evening and dined with his
friends there last night.

New York Sun Special Service.
Washington, Aug. Edward H.
Conger, the American ambassador to
Mexico, is on his way home, ostensi-
bly, fol-. the purpose Of informing the
president how to adjust the Chinese
boycott Of American goods, but really
to gain lease Of official life. Mr..
Conger was minister to China for seven
years and is well posted on conditions
there. He was a stumbling block, how
ever, to the. adjustments of the diff
culties which grew out of the Boxer
troubles, and was transferred to Mexi-
co, with the understanding that he
would remain there but short time
and retire. He has now been granted
two months leave Of absence, with the
understanding that he will sever his
connection with the diplomatic service
when his leave expires. Mr.. Conger is
not disposed to surrender his post, and
as there is little likelihood Of Loomis,
who was slated to succeed him, receiv-
ing the appointment since the Bowen
affair, there is possibility he may be
granted short extension of service.

MYSTIC ANTIQUES
NOT FOR JORDAN
Stanford Relics, Gathered in 20
Seconds by an Astral Are
g. Rejected. -
Trial Pockets, loo.

San Francisco, Aug. 5.-Thomas Wei
ton Stanford of Melbourne, brother of
the late Senator Stanford, has offered
to present to Stanford university an
almost priceless collection of antiques
which he says was collected for him
from Egyptian tombs by the astral
but twenty seconds for the round trip
from Egypt to Australia. The name of
the blacksmith medium or mahatma is
c. Bailey, and it is said that some of
the leading scientists of the world be-
lieve in his work as a communer with
the inhabitants of the astral world and
his ability to perform seeming miracles
DIR. Jordan, however, has made it
clear that this collection, the list of
which includes many articles of great
value as antiquities, will not be ac7
cepted, basing his objection on the
openly avowed method of its collection.
