WRECKED A SAFE.
Robbers Demolished Safe, But Secur-
ed Little Loot.
Special to the World

special TO tne world.
Enid, Okla, July 20.-At an early
hour this morning,probably between |
and 2 O'Clock, burglars entered the
Office of }. A. Lopeman's nursery, on
Market street, and blew open the iron
safe. No one heard the robbers and
only the results of the deed are so
far obtainable as evidence.
A charge of nitro-glycerine was
used in wrecking the safe. Soap had
been put in all the cracks around the
safe door and then the powerful ex-
pIosive well arranged. The front of
the safe, which is quite large and of
a modern make, was completely torn
off. TIE destruction of the door could
hardly have been more complete. A
cross partition in the building across
which the safe stood was also badly
damaged.
The robbers secured only about 20
cents in currency. They carried away
however, three drawers of papers val
liable to Mr.. Lopeman, but of no value
to them. NJ. Lopeman does very ex-
tensive business in the nursery line,
having between forty and fifty men
on the road at present, hence he ne
cessarily has a safe full of import
ant documents. These are nearly all
gone.
No clue has been obtained as to
the robbers. The building was entered
by means of skeleton key. This is
the second burglary in that part of
f.. I'd this week.

David Thompson, the American am
bassador to Mexico, was instructed ia
make such representations to the
Mexican government as might enlist
It's efforts to the same end, Mexico's
desire for peace between its neighbors
being well known. Mexico entered
heartily into the project and its diplo-
matte representatives in Guatemala
and Salvador were instructed to CO.
operate with Ministers Merry and
Combs. Guatemala, Salvador and
Honduras agreed to an armstice begin
ming at five O'Clock the morning of
July Is, in order that representatives
Of these governments might meet with

Pittsbug, Penna., July 30
Charges of crooked methods made
by both sides were a feature Of the
sensational Hartje divorce ease dur
ing its hearing today. What is appar-
emily a series of legal victories for
Mrs. Hartie, the respondent in the
uit, also marked the days session and
eliminated in the admission of the
confessions of Clifford Hooe, the col
ored coachman, in which he is said to
have declared that he lied when he
swore that he had improper relations
with the respondent. This most i'm
portant point was not gained until
after a bitterly contested struggle be-
tween the opposing counsel, which
lasted for over an hour and half,
during which Attorney Ferguson
made many sensational threats.
With the offering of this confes-
sion and of several other documents
today, the case for the respondent
was practically closed, although AT
torney John Freeman, of Mrs. Tart
je's counsel, told the court that he
might have some new matter to pres
ent later. An adjournment was then
taken until Monday morning.
Detective Ray, of the Perkins agen-
cy, and Superintendent g. p. Perkins
told of the arrest of Hooe in Ohio and
of his being brought back to Pitts
burg, where he made his confession.
Attorney John Marron, of Angus
tus Hartje's counsel, put both Ray
and Perkins through a rigid cross ex-
animation, in which he tried to show
that Hooe was made drunk and CO.
creed by the detectives into making
the confession. Mrs. Mary Scott Hart
ie, the respondent, testified that she
was present when the first deposition
of the negro coachman was taken, and
said that what he said there was "out-
rageously false,"
There was hard battle of argu-
ment when the counsel of Augustus
lIartie tried to get stricken from the
case concerning Hooe, given by John
L. Welshons, Hartje's close friend,
and the witnesses who followed him.
Attorney J. Scott Ferguson led the
argument for Hartie, and bitterly ar
raigned Mrs. Hartje. Attorney John
NJ. Freeman, chief of counsel for Mrs.
Hartie, replied sharply and was rein
forced with typewriter and carefully
prepared papers to establish his con-
tention that evidence was proper.
Jndge Robert s. Frazer gave the coun-
sci for Hartie no encouragement and
finally ordered that evidence be con-
sidered and made part Of the case
The opposing counsel had difficulty in
agreeing upon the statement of fact
to be considered upon which conclu-
Sions of law were based.
At the close of the day Judge Fra
zer said that four statements were
made by the negro coachman which
would not be read in open court. The
Judge said that it would not be well to
have them made public at this time,
and corrected an intimation that he
was acting solely in the interests of
public morals.
