was entered.
The house had been thoroughly ran
sacked and but for the arrival OF the doc
tor a rich haul could have been made.
AS Il was the thieves secured a watch

BIG LOSS
To SHORE
RESORTS

The almost continual rain OF Sunday
business to the shore resorts. probably
a~sgregating over $4,000, and the man
agement OF the Providence, Fall River
and Newport Steamboat company about
$500.
The Sunday preceding Labor day and
the holiday itself are counted upon 10 be
big days, and Labor day has come to be
considered a closing day Of the season.
The season, on the whole, has been a
lucrative one for shore resort manage
ments and amusement proprietors so that
the heavy loss OF the last two days Is not
so badly felt as II would be counting on
these days to make up for a poor sea-
son.
Arrangements for the entertainment Of
fully 10000 people had been made at Cres-
cent Park. where the official celebration
OF Labor day had been arranged for.
Damage TO the Hope Land company and
amusement proprietors at that resort is
estimated at about 10000, Part Of this
1t Is hoped will be regained when the Of
fetal celebration is held on the postponed
date.
The season closes at Crescent Park at
the end Of this week, although the resort
will cater TO Sunday business until the
nth.
Manager Harrington figures q loss OF
5000 because OF the stormy weather. The
scheduled game between Jersey City and
Providence would probably have drawn
about 10000 patrons IL played, and a total
at the Point of about 10000
was expected.
Boyden Heights estimates n loss OF
about 5000 and Colonel Atwell figures
that receipts at FIELDS Point suffered TO
the extent OF 5000.
