FLAGS STOP ENGINEERS.
Farmers Adopt Unique Method to
Force Railroad to File
Bona.

Carlisle Pa.-The American flag
was used with good effect by the heirs
of Theophilus Strayer in preventing
railroad engineering corps from
completing survey across their farm
near the Dillsburg intersection of the
Cumberland Valley and the Pittsburg,
Harrisburg & Philadelphia branches
of the Reading railroad. Several days
ago engineers made survey on the
farm and drove the stakes. The next
morning the engineers found that all
the stakes had been pulled up and in
their places were American flags, the
staffs resting in the holes left by the
stakes. The engineers received warn
ins that they must not disturb the
flags. The railroad company is build
ing a double track from Harrisburg to
Shippensburg, which necessitates the
use of a portion Of the Strayer prop
erty. Although it is said the right of
way had previously been secured, the
flags are still floating and all work
has been suspended until the company
files the proper bond, which it has
failed to do. When this has been done
the flags will be removed

PACKING PLANT IN FLAMES
Armour Oleo Building at Omaha Is
Destroyed by Fire, Causing
Heavy Loss.

Omaha, Neb., June 13.-A fire which
started at about 11:30 o'clock Monday
night gutted the building occupied by
the oleo department of the Armour
packing plant at South Omaha causing
the death of one man and pecuniary
loss estimated at 100000.
The origin of the fire is not known.
1t started on the top floor OF the five
story building occupied by the oleo
plant and SO infiamable were the con-
tents of the building that all effort to
check the flames were unavailing
The oleo building stands between
the main Office and the killing depart
ment and for some time it was be-
lieved that the entire plant would be
destroyed.
Vigorous work by the firemen of the
company and the South Omaha depart
ment, however, confined the fire to the
original building.
Cornelius Denny, a member of the
Armour fire department, fell from the
top of the building and died within a
few minutes.
r.. c. Howe, general manager of the
western plants Of the Armour com
pany, said to reporter that the value
of the building was SIS, 900 and of it's
contents 100000. The loss is fully
covered by insurance.
Mr.. Howe said the work of rebuild
ing the plant would be begun as soon
as the debris has cooled SO as to per-
nit of its removal

IND!CT EX MUTUAL CHIEF
FORMER INSURANCE OFFICIALS
HELD BY GRAND JURY.
Are Charged with Forgery, Perjury
and Making False Entries-Case
Set for September.

New York, June 13. Indictments
for forgery and perjury against DR..
Walter G. Gillette, and for forgery and
filing false statements against Robert
A. GTanniss, both former vice presf-
dents OF the Mutual Life Insurance
company, were returned Monday by
the special grand jury which has been
investigating insurance affairs for the
past six weeks.
Six indictments were found against
DR.. Gillette, five for forgery in the
third degree, and one for perjury. Mr..
Granniss was indicted for forgery and
for making false statements to the in
surance department., the latter being a
misdemeanOr.
The forgery indictments against DR..
Gillette are based upon alleged fake
entries in the books of the company
and the perjury charge grows out OF
his tesr :mony before the grand jury.
The forgery Indictment against
Granniss is based upon alleged false
entries upon the annual report of the
Mutual for 1904 to the insurance de-
partment. 1t is alleged that the sum
of $1,044, ,058.23, the net profits of the
company for 1904, was not noted in
that report, but was concealed by Mr..
Granniss. The misdemeanOr charge
Of making false statements grows out
of the filing of the alleged false report
to the insurance department.
DR.. Gillette pleaded not guilty, and
asked for an extension of time, with
leave to withdraw his plea or file a
demurrer Justice Scott set the case
for the first Monday in September.
Bail in the sum of $4,000 was fur
nished for Gillette and $4,000 for
Granniss.
The wording and arrangement of the
indictments leave no alternative to the
evident intention of this grand jury
to impose upon the next grand jury
the necessity of indicting ex-President
McCurdy as the only other official d.
rectly responsible for the crimes
charged to Gillette and Grann1ss.

GEM STUFFED IDOL
HEAD FULL OF DIAMONDS AND
CAN'T BE FOUND.
Ingenious Method of Smuggling
Stolen Jewels Into This Coun-
try Intensely Inter
esting Tale.

Philadelphia the head of an
antique and hideous stone idol, the
whereabouts of which is puZzling the
Philadelphia police, is believed to
have been smuggled into this country
gems valued at 100000.
The image was discovered in a sta
Bile of a furniture firm in West Phila-
delphia, and placed in a store show
window as a decoration.
Shortly afterward the members of
the firm were warned in an anony-
nous letter not to give away or sell
the image, a reward being promised
If it should be replaced in the stable.
The firm did not wish to part with it,
however, and notified the police and
their employees to prevent its being
stolen
Notwithstanding all precautions, the
image mysteriously disappeared.
ilcemen outside and clerks within nat
been on the watch all evening. Aaous
eight o'clock, when one of the clerk
turned to look at the idol in the win
dow after having been engaged in an
other direction only few minutes,
the image was gone.
A few days ago the promised eX-
PLANTATION came. 1t was a tale of ad-
venture in strange lands and of an
ingenious method of smuggling stolen
jewels into the country.
According to the story told by the
letter, the writer is an Italian who
after various vicissitudes in earning a
living in Europe was sent by his en-
ployer to South Africa to assist in the
selection of diamonds. After arriving
in Cape Colony he made the acquain-
tance of Cecil Rhodes, and by the con-
sent of his employer went TO work for
the magnate.
Leaving him in after years, he fell
in with Barney Barnato, and went
with him to the diamond fields at
Kimberley Here he fell in with an
other man, whose name he does not
give.
"Kaffo,' as the writer called him
self, and his friend secured lot of
diamonds.
The climax came in a thunderstorm,
In which his friend was killed by
lightning Kaffo was stunned, but
soon recovered and uncartbed the pre-
cious stones accumulated by his friend
and prepared to leave the country.
His great problem was to conceal
the stones, so as to smuggle them out
! of the country. His eyes fell on the
idol The head Of the image was hol-
low and it had been used as water
cooler.
He dropped the diamonds in
through the eye holes and stopped the
holes by cenenting paste diamonds in
them. He came to Philadelphia,
where a fellow countryman, whose ac-
quaintance he made at boarding
house, appeared to be fascinated by
the image. One day this new friend
and the idol were both missing.
The friend he found in a dying con-
dition in hospital. He confessed
to stealing the image, and told where
he had concealed it in a stable. This
was month after 1T disappeared.
The next night Kaffo went to the sta
BILE, only to find that the idol was
gone. On November 1S he saw pic
.ure of the idol In Philadelphia pa
per. Then came the correspondence
and the theft.
