showed that it is in excellent shape.
With an extraordinary out turn as
sured, it is quite as certain that the
high price at which staple products
have been selling for the last few
days would be retained.
The reason for this lies in the re-
duced state of reserve supplies
throughout the world and in the short
age of the principal foreign harvests.
Looking ahead to what all this means
for the general business prosperity of
the country there can scarcely be d
question that it points TO prosperity

Opinion of the Police Relative
to the Frequent
BurgIaries.
ANOTHER CASE REPORTED
EFFORT MADE ON TUESDAY
NIGHT TO ENTER WESTCOTT
HOME ON EAST MAIN STREET
-POLlCE NOTIFIED.

Il think that the man doing the
small robberies around the city is an
amateur. In many cases he has pass
ed over table silver and money which
might have been easily taken had he
made thorough search"
Such was the statement of Supt.
Bailey of the police department when
asked by the Palladium yesterday re-
garding the frequency of house burg
laries in the city during the past
month or SO.
According to the statement in one
of the evening papers the police de
partment did not credit truth to the
printed reports in the Palladium Sat
urday Of two burglaries that occur
red during the week, yet it can be
stated with great pOsitiveness that
the homes of Thomas Swanner and
Ledger ?. Winer were both entered
and sums of money taken as stated
II is also fact that an attempt
was made to enter the house of J
NJ. Westcott on East Main street on
last Tuesday night. A member of the
household was awakened by a noise
and looking out Of q window saw a
man endeayOring to Dry open a win
dow. The intruder was frightened
away, the police department notified.
and officers were sent to the house
The frequency Of buTglaries in the
city has had the effect to badly alarm
people, particularly women and I'M
til the individual who is doing the
work is apprehended there will not
be a feeling of security in any quar-
ter Of the city. The police depart
ment is making an effort 10 put 4
stop to the work that is going on.
but up to the present has met with
i'll success, The argument advanced
that the beats OF patrolmen are so
large that they cannot properly pro
tect property, seems to be generally
approved. though it would require
the services of several new patrol
men to lessen the territory covered
by the present force to any consid-
cradle degree.

Patriots Thrown in Prison.

st. Petersburg, Aug. 12.--All of the
prisons in Finland are filling with pa
triots, whose only crime is that they
have declined to cheer for the Car
and the Russian government. There
are ugly mutterings among the popu-
lace and it is freely reported that the
Finnish revolutionary organization Is
planning a general attack upon all of
the Russian prisons next week, at
which time an attempt will be made
to release all political Offenders.
At Sevastopol the situation remains
quiet, but the troops and sailors in
the garrison are simply held in check
by the vigilance Of their officers
In the Caucasus fighting continues,
but it is not of the intensity of the
past few days and the officials here
state that the troops are gradually re-
gaining control.
Three officers who are declared to
have been ringleaders in the Svea-
borg mutiny, have been found guilty
of mutiny and sentenced to be shot.

Good System in Vogue.

It aUnears that the present method
of bookkeeping employed by the city
is longer and more tedious than the
old system. The present method calls
for bill cOuchers and warrants, and
when a bill is presented it must have
the 20. X Of the Board Of Public
Works, City Clerk and the CITY Con
troller, before it is paid. This system
is very thorough. Mr.. Smith is audit
ing the books back from period
when the old system was used and he
has to work out the duplicate book
system and the bill-vOucher system
at the same time,
Councilman Deuker said last night
that it is remarkable the swift way
in which Mr.. Smith executes his
work and that he had gotten farther
than he expected him to at this time.
Last night the auditing was com
pleted uD to 1906 and tomorrow the
work on this years accounts will be
begun.
Mr. Smith stated that during City
Treasurer Tennis term over mil
lion and a half of dollars have pass
ed through his hands, and there is
no Indication of a single error.

SHORT TIME, HOWEVER-TWO
EXCHANGE PLANS UNDER CON-
SiDERATION BY COMPANY.

The report has started anew that
the Bell telephone interests which
control the Central Telephone com
pany of this city, have negotiations
on for the purchase of the Home Tel
ephOne COmpany's plant.
1t was even asserted to the Palladi-
um yesterday that perhaps the sale
had already been made" but when an
investigation was begun, it was quick
ly developed that if any such thing
was in the air, the. local men who
are stockholders in the Home Tele-
phone company, know nothing of it.
One of them said to the Palladium
last night that he did not believe that
any such attempt was being made by
the Central Union for the reason that
in other attempts they had failed and
probably were aware that the Home
company intends to continue business
independent of the great corporation
which is the veritable grandmother
Of the telephone world.
The Home company is just at pres
ent baked in its work of laying con-
duits because of the delay in getting
material and also because of the fact
that it has not been decided definitely
which of two routes for the conduits
system will be taken. Another mat
ter that has been under consideration
for some weeks and which is not set
tied is relative to the equipment for
the exchange. Though some of the
board members favor the automatic
system, it has not been fully deter
mined to install a system of this char

EmuIated Train Robbers.

Young Hildrcth, with Theodore
Hibbard, Herbert Plate and Fred Bris-

"yellow literature" in November,
1905, decided that they would emulate
the example of noted train robbers
and mold up train. They went
down along the line of the New York
Central and Hudson River railway
one morning just before daybreak
and planned TO hold up the fast west
ern mail train from the west. In or
der to stop the train they removed a
rail from the track and when the
train came along, drawn by one Of the
largest locomotives in the service, SIS,
a companion to the famous 999 shown
at the Chicago Exposition, and run
ming 20 miles an hour the entire train
went into the ditch. Engineer Ma

stealing ride, were instantly killed
and a dozen mail clerks seriously
hurt The boys fled, but were later
captured and all were convicted of
manslaughtcr and sentenced to i'm

ton Of Plato, who died in Jail awaiting
trial. Bristol later died in prison,
but Hildrcth and Hibbard were par
doned less than a year ago.
Before his arrest HildrCth had met
Miss Ryding and there WAS an attach
mcnt between them which was of the
stalwart kind and during his inCarcer-
alton a correspondence between them
was kept up as regular as the prison
regulations would permit. In fact,
it was due to the efforts of Miss Ry-
ding that Governor Higgins consented
to pardon the two youths.
The couple are now in the Middle
West on a wedding tour and will re-
side in New York City, where Mr. Hill
dreth is in business as real estate

Panama, Aug. 11.-An alleged plot
on the part of prominent Colombian
leaders TO overthrow President Anna
dor's government and proclaim Col
Ombia's sovereignty over Panama
again has been frustrated through
the activity of the police and gov
crnment authorities. Compromising
documents said to give indubitable
evidences of the plot are reported
to have been seized on two OF the con
spirators. Two Colombian generals
said TO be implicated in the conspfr-
aCy were seized by the Police. Presi-
dent AmadOr has decided that all the
obnoxious COlumhians said to be i'm
plicatod in the plot shall be expelled

Generals Ruiz Sandoval and Cas-

MOsqucra and nine other Colombian
officials are reported to be the ring

numerous cOnfederates. Their plan
was to accomplish coup d'etat by
which President Amador would be
overthrown and then proclaim Col
ombias sovereignty over the country
which was once a part OF that coun-
try.
An interview in which the two gen
erals sought President Amador's pal
ace aroused the suspicion of the po-
lice. Both generals were seized and
compromising documents are said TO
have been found in their possession

erals was killed in resisting arrest,
