said that they had been sent to town

I telephoned a business man NJ the

took a car TO town expecting to find
them stolen. The business man, how
ever, had taken them inside OF his place

are pretty lucky to get them back. Mr.
Kelley kept promising me that he would

Alexander Rerkman Leaves His
Prison Today.
Doesn't Regret Having Shot
H. c. Frick.

Pittsburg, Pa. May 1s.-Alexander
Berkman, who made an attempt on the
life of Henry Clay Frick during the
great steel strike at Homestead, Pa, in
1892, was released from prison today,
having serseu 13 years il the western
penitentlary and one year in the Allie
gheny werkhouse. Berkman was sen
fenced to % years imprisonment, but
earned a Communication Of sentence by
good behaviour which reduced his term
to IA years
Deputy Superintendent johnson of the
Allegheny police department and three
Pittsburg detectives met Berkman upon
his release and notified him to leave the
city at once. He replied that it would
be a pleasure to comply with their wish
es and he would take his departure for
St. Louis at 4 o'clock in the afternoon.
It is said that plans to keep him under
surveillance had been carefully worked
out and that he will be constantly
shadowed by private detectives.
In an interview Berkman said he had
never regretted his act and would have
had no regret if he had succeeded in
killing Frick It was matter of prin-
ciple, not personal s feeling. which
said, had changed and h had nothing
against F-rfck and never expected to see
him again. Continuing, he said:
Il do not know what 1zViH do till I
get to St Louis Lam going there this
afternoon on the first train. There is
one thing I want to deny that is. that
I am to become a leader Of the an
archists IN this country and take Herr
Most's place. There is nothing in that
I am going to lead a quiet life and try
to make an honest living and I have no
doubt that I can do SO''

IT CLOSES TONIGHT.
Y Nj a ff3tIiIsEing ssaAd Campaign
Near Coveted Mark.

The Y M c. A. $4,000 campaign
comes to a conclusion this evening. At
the time the hour hand is on s this even
ing it is hoped that the goal will have
been reached. The wreath of laurel
and the other insignias which belong
to the victor viii be the portion this
evening of the business mems com
mittee when it probably holds aloft the
pledges of $4,000 for the 7. NJ c. A.
furnishing fund.
Probably this is anticipating the
event but the committee has made good
in all the emeT gencies IN the past IN
such a handsome manner that there is
no feeling that it can spoil things by
failing to make good now.
At l o'clock this afternoon the fund
lacked something less than $3.50 of
reaching the crest-$15 COO.
In pledges without any strings there
was represented S13,320 and in addition
to this 81, 000 is pledged based on the
condition that $4,000 is raised before
Saturday.
I'VE don't want to stop at the $4,000
mark though" said George 1errigo,
secretary of the Y. NJ. G. A. We need
all we can get because contingencies
may arise which may involve a portion
of the pledges. We want to get over the
| line with a margin" It was busy day
for the pushers. At nine o'clock this
morning the committee and the Nava-
joes and Kickapoos, the latter two rival
organizations of the Y M. c. A. who
/ have been out hustling for the fund,
met at the Y. NJ c. A. and visited every
/ place of business on Kansas avenue
I between Fifth and Ninth streets.
Rlacards reading like this: Give a
! lift today to the new Y M. c. A. $4,000
fund Subscriptions and cash received
here" were placed in the windows. Each
pusher had a small blue card pinned to
! his coat announcing, I am pusher
| for the Y M c. A $4,000 fund.
/ With this work concluded the push
ers took luncheon at the Copeland,
and without making any report hur-
ried away again to visit some of the
esprobabilities' who might subscribe.
At the principal stores young men,
members of the association, were sta
/ toned to solicit subscriptions from
shoppers In addition to this mer-
chants gave 5 per cent. of their gross
receipts for the entire day.
The great appointment of the
whole campaign has been the indff-
! fernce which was exhibited towards
the personal letters of appeal which
were sent out Several thousand OF
these were sent through the mails,
/ and half of them elected no response
whatever. though the letters and the
/ follow up system employed occasioned
1 Considerable expense
To these an opportunity still exists
/ to make good by telephoning to the
Y M c. A, where someone will be
prepared to answer the telephone at
any time. No matter how small the
amount it will be appreciated. The
! phones are: Bell, 90T, red; Independ-
ent COS.
