$3.50 IN BOOTY
Secured by Burglars in
Break at Phillips.
Outer Safe in National Bank
Looted One Intact.
Sound Deadened by Stolen BIankets-..Break
Discovered Next Morning.

Phillips, Me, Oct. 22.-The vault Of
the Phillips National Bank was blown
open, early Saturday, and $3.50 in silver
and cOppers obtained. For some rea-
son no attempt was made TO gain en-
trance to the main safe. where about
Sl4, 900 in currency was stored.
The officers began a search Of the
country adjoining this town, but their
are few clues to guide them. AS far as
is known, no suspicious characters have
been seen in this vicinity, and it is as
sumed by the officers that the safe
blowers came in a carriage after dark,
Friday night. The bank safe is very
strongly built. 1t was believed to be
almost burglar proof, at least it so
proved, today.
The break was effected, about A.
NJ, when a defamation was heard by
the occupants of the hotel near the
bank and by several others, but an in
vestigation failed to reveal the pres
ence of burglars or the result of their
visit. The fact that the bank had been
robbed was not discovered, until about
{ o'clock, when planks and other OBJ
structions We're found on the sidewalk
in front of the building. evidently plac-
ed to warn them of the approach of
citizens.
Entrance was gained by forcing a
window in the bank office. The lock
was knocked from the vault door with
an axe, and the explosive was injected

taken from stable and thoroughly
soaked with water.
In addition to the currency, a trunk
belonging to Mrs. Julia Huxley, con-
tanning papers of value, was taken.
Part of the money was removed from
the cash drawers, which had been de-
posted in the vault. over night. The
Office was somewhat damaged by the
explosion.
Saturday morning, l.. B. Kenney. who
lives about mile out of town, identi
fled the blankets used in the break as
his, which were stolen from his stable
during the night. Sheriff Coolidge ana
Deputy Sheriffs Eaton and Bell, as
sisted by citizens, are searching for the
burglars. who had the advantage of six
hours start. That the work was that
of amateurs is the belief of Assistant
Cashier d. F. Field who gives as his
reasons that no attempt was made
upon the main safe; because the bank
is 4 member Of the National Bankers
Association. and because of the manner
in which the knob of the lock was
knocked off and the explosive placed.
Another theory is that the cracksmen
are members of a gang which has been
operating in western Maine, the past
six weeks.

AT JACKSONVILLE, FLA.
A Delightful Visit-The Presidents
Talks to Southern Friends.

Jacksonville, Florida, Oct. 22.-The
reception to President Roosevelt in
Jacksonville, Saturday. was a hearty
one. Thousands thronged the streets
Oh his line of march, and the President
| showed in his manner his appreciation
| of the good will that was manifested
| on every side.
30 far as comfort was concerned the
day was ideal. A cool north wind had
begun to blow, during the night, which
prevented the delivery Of the Presi-
dents principal speech in the open air
| before the Seminole Club, as it was
thought that the wind would make it
impossible for his voice to reach the
assembled crowds. This speech was
delivered at the Board Of Trade Audi
forum, where it was listened to with
great interest and frequent applause.
He said:
Here in Florida, the first of the
Gulf States which l have visited upon
this trip. | wish to say special word
about the Panama Canal. | believe
that the canal will be of great benefit
to all our people. but most Of all to
the States of the South Atlantic, the
Gulf and the Pacific slope When
completed the canal will stand as a
monument to this nation; for il will
be the greatest engineering feat ever
yet accomplished in the world 1t
will be a good. thing for the world as
whole, and for the people of the
lsthmus and of the northern portions
of South America in particular. Be
cause of our especial interest in it,
and because Of the position we occupy
on this hemisphere, it is a matter of
special pride to us that our nation.
the American nation, should have
undertaken the performance of this
world duty. A body of the most emf
nent engineers in the word. both
Americans and foreigners, has been
summoned to advise as to the exact
type Of canal which should be built.
At no distant date hope to be able to
announce what their advice is. and
also the action taken upon their adj
vice. Meanwhile the work Is already
well underway, and has advanced suf-
ficientIy far to enable me to announce
with cehtainty that it can surely be
accomplished, and probably at rather
less expense than was anticipated.
