HOLDUP

and deputies, assisted by nearly 100
armed residents, ran down the Italians,
who. 1t is believed, are the ones
who had plotted to hold up
Paymaster C. E. Reed, of Tren-
ton, and rob him of several thousand
dollars. the pay roll of a large gang
of Italians employed in constructing
the stone road from Pennington to
Ringoes.
The gang, all armed with shotguns
and revolvsrs, have made n woods,
near Copper Hill, their rendezvous
since Friday night. They took n of
the men employed on the stone road
into their confidence. and it was
planned to hold Reed up Saturday aft
ernoon, while on his way from lam
bertvi1le to Copper Hill.
The italian revealed the plot 10 the
foreman. who advised Reed TO come
to Fiemlngton direct by train. After
the men received their pay the at
tempted hold up became known. despite
the efforts of the authorities o keep
1t quiet until the gang could be appre-
hended, and there was CONSERVATION
among the Italians.
The climaY was reached Sunday night.
when the despera1oes attempted to rob
the Italian boarding house at Copper
Hill, where a score of the foreigners
are sheltered. The footpads were
beaten off, but the Delaware River
Quarry and Construction Company was
unable to continue work upon the road,
for many of the Italians gathered up
their belongings with the intention of
fleeing, and carried them to Fleming
ton, where some took trains out of
Others walked about armed
with shotguns. threatening to shoot
the gang on sight.
Shortly after noo yesterday
they were discovered IN a

was Quickly organized here, and within
a short time the whole n~eighborhood in
that section had Joined in the hunt.
Before the posse arrived at the spot
bandits held up Mr.. Baker, and
informed of this the posse was
soon Upon their track, and a hot chase
followed.
Four of the men were found laying
face downward on their guns In the
underbrush IN the woods at different
points. The fifth walked out of the
woods and asked Orville II. Dilts, one
Of the searching party, for a job, which
consented to give him and he was

of the gang were brought to
Pennington tonight and locked up. i
When they arrived an angry moi or
laborers surrounded them n 1t
was all that the authorities could do to
keep them from doing violence. Some
weapons.
1t is possible that the desperadoes are
the same who committed the Middle

this great force, so vitality afrecting mooern

1T is the robust constitution of the pa
tielt rather than the faults and evils pro-
ducing the hysterla that Is already taking
a hold on the PUBIC MIND ana winch MS
tory will record as one Of the wonderful
features of the trying ordeal through
which this business has recently passed.
These experiences have not been without
their lesson.
They have produced new conditions
which it will take time and the good sober
Judgment of the people satisfactorily to
adjust. With it all, however, comes a
new recognition by the public at large
of the benefcent aims and achievements
of life insurance, and an absolute demand
for good, straightforward insurance con-
tracts with Institutions whose integrity
and solidity remain mistaken.
"Keenly alive to these new conditions
the Prudential has Just adopted the poiicy
of hereafter writing exclusively non-par-
~ticipating business. Thus, by this form
iof insurance. all uncertainty will be re-
moved. all errors of judgment eliminated
all possibility of a misunderstanding re-
garding ultimate dividends or results done
away with. and the insured knows denn-
itely and specifically that he is getting the
lowest possible premium compatible with
safety. and tina tine beneficiary gets ex-
actlv what is paid for"
The new law in this State requires that
all life insurance companies shall decide
by September / whether they will carry
participating or non-participating policies.
1t is in conformity with this law hat the
Prudential makes the decision to write
only the latter kind.
