chusetts Pink Granite company of Mil
ford has been awarded the contract to
furnish granite for the mausoleum to
be erected in Canton, o., for President
William Mckinley. The granite con-
tract calls for S250,000 worth of ma
terial. The granite will be cut from
the Cedar street quarries of the COM
pany, and viii be the means of increas-
ing the present working force of the
quarry from 125 to 400 men.

no less than 5000 cars to transport the

The other contract that will call for
an enormous contribution from the
granite deposits at Milford is that for
furnishing the stone for the great ter
minal now being built in New York

Care to Be Bothered Hunting
Down the Thief.

Boston, June 13.-The stealing of Sc.
curities valued at $4,000 from Henry
w. Comstoek Of this city from his
stateroom on board the Fall River liner
Puritan, between New York and New
port during the night, followed during
yesterday forenoon by telephone mes
sage to Mr.. Comstock from New York
telling he could purchase the papers by
paying suitable amount Of cash, form
the chief features OF mysterious rob
berry which was reported yesterday to
the Boston police.
The securities were taken from under
Mr.. Comstock's pillow in his berth, pre-
sumably by some person who entered
the stateroom through the cabin win
dow. The police OF this city, observed
the utmost secrecy with reference to
the matter merely announcing the fact
of the robbery together with the nature
of the securities until Mr.. Comstock's
declaration that he had been offered the
valuables for sufficient consideration
when it was decided to give out the name
of the person robbed together with some
of the details of the robbery.
Mr. Comstock believes that he was
robbed by a man who followed him in
New York city, watching him while
making a transfer of securities in the
Broadway Central hotel last Saturday
morning, and who under the belief that
Mr.. Comstock was in the possession of
a large amount of cash or certainly OF
negotiable paper, followed him on board
the Fall River liner Puritan Saturday
night.
Mr.. Comstock said.
II believe that was made the sub.
ject of a conspiracy. | think | will be
able to get back the securities by offer
ing nominal sum OF money. Indeed.
negotiations would have been started
by me had not Chief Watts Of the Bos-
ton police advise me to turn the entire
matter over to District Attorney jerome
Of New York. He believes that the New
York authorities win locate both the
person who telephone to me and the
securities themselves.
The telephone message was received
by Mr.. Comstock over his private tele-
phone at the United States hotel this
city where he has lived for many years.
When he answered the call he was told
that the person talking was lawyer
of New York city. The person refused
to divuige his name, but said that he
had been authorized to arrange with Mr..
Comstock how the latter could secure
from third person in New York
the missing papers"

MONT pELEE BREAKS OUT AGAIN.
Part of the Volcanoes Dome Has Now
Collapsed.

Fort de France, Island of Martinique,
June 12.-For the past few days Mont
Pelee has manifested reerudeseenee
of activity, which, while stronger than
that of the month of April of the pres
ent year, does not seem to be of an
alarming nature. Some dense clouds of
smoke have been discharged from the
volcano and have fallen over the White
River Valley, afterwards disappearing
ON arrival at the seacoast. Sharp lum-
nous flashes have been perceived at
the dome OF the mountain, and fairly
strong burst OF flame was seen June 3
between 1:40 and 2:10 p. m. On that
occasion very thick cloud of smoke
almost descended to the sea, and the
einders thrown up extended over the viii
lage OF lie Precheur, which is on the
extreme line forming the limit of the
territory devastated during the terrible
out break of May, 1902 (resulting in
the loss of about 10000 lives), and then
swept seward and disappeared. After
this the volcano again became calm and
remained 50 until the night Of June TO-
-, uuiihg WnicH tine uOlne was llufHt-
mated by numerous luminous points.
The collapse Of part Of the dome oc-
CURED yesterday morning at six o'clock.
1t was accompanied by an outflow Of
mad into the White River Valley, At
1l;S0 a. m. the same morning a dense
cloud Of smoke slowly rose from the
crater TO the estimated height OF about
] 900 yards and extended towards lie
Pecheur, where the smoke was dissi-
pated. Since then the volcano has re-
manned calm.
