That NJ. Egan does not have to face

Was Expected.

Marini Marino. IA years old. Of 215

Hospital suffering from tetanus or
lockjaw, as the result of shooting him
self in the palm Of the left hand While
celebrating the Fourth of July. He
was admitted to the institution last
night. Every precaution is being taken
by the physicians to ward off more seri-
Gus developments.
The boy injured himself on the
Fourth of July and went to St Bar
nabas's Hospital. where he was treated.
The wound gave him no trouble and it
was thought that the injured member
had become whole again. But last
night the boy refused to eat and con-
vulsions soon followed and he was i'm
mediately removed to the city Hos
pital.
AS yet none of those treated at the
City Hospital on the Fourth have re-
turned. The physicians there used d
special powder preparation, which was
busted into the wound after it was
washed. and this preparation was used
especially to prevent the development
OF tetanus.

Sl6,OOO Taken in Daily Hauls
of $1,000 From COney
Island Institution.
POLICE ARE MYSTIFIED
With Four Detectives on Guard
Watching Every Customer
and Employee of jenkins
Trust Company, Thefts
Continue.

NEW YORK, July 11.-That money
of the Jenkins Trust Company. at
Coney Island. at the rate of 81 1000 a
day. while four detectives stand on
guard unable to prevent the thefts or
discover the robbers, is the extraor-
binary situation which is baff1ing Police
Captain Langdon and his staff Of
sleuths.
The total sum missing is now $4,000,
and the larger part Of 1t was taken
while the detectives stood in the bank
and watched every man and woman
who entered, besides keeping clerks
and employees under the strictest
guard.
The theft Is regarded as one of the
most remarkable in police annals. and
the police and bank officials are abso-
lutely without a clue
The Coney Island house, is one of
several branches of the company, which
has its headquarters in Brooklyn. The
branch is in Surf avenue, at Thomp-
sons walk, and depends for patronage
largely on local business men.
About two weeks ago the first theft
was discovered. Richard X Haldane,
cashier of the branch, reported to John
], Jenkins, president that a consider
able sum of money was missing. The
cashier saids-it4alsafi~sbeen taken some
time during the day. and The theft was
discovered when cash was balanced
that night.
An investigation was begun, but only
disclosed that the money had been
taken from cash drawer. The next
day when cash was counted more
money was missing In both instances
packages of bills of different denom-
nations were stolen.
Unable to fathom the mystery, the
bankers called in Police Captain Lang
don and his detectives. The police ad-
vised that the thefts be kept quiet in
the hope that the thief could be caught.
Two detectives were placed in the
bank. but that evening another $1,000
was gone. Next day the two were in
the bank early and they remained late.
Not a person entered or left the bank
without being watched. In spite of
this another $1,000 was missing at the
close of business that day.
The thefts had become so frequent
and so mysterious by this time that
Captain Langdon communicated with
police headquarters and Lieutenants
Hughes and Busby were sent to the
bank All four men were on watch the
next day.
AS If to show defiance to the police,
the thief on that day was not satisfied
with his usual $1,000 haul, and the
amount missing at the close of business
was larger
And so the stealing has gone on from
day to day, and the police are no
nearer a. solution of the mystery than
they were the day 1t began. The direc-
tors of the trust company, realizing the
seriousness of the situation, called a
hurried meeting yesterday, and all day
they were in conference, but no conclu-
sion was reached.

RHCROSS-
EXAMINED BY
BORAH
Tells Why Western Fedora
ton Of Miners Defended
Orchard at Start.

BOISE, July 11.-Charles H. Meyer
was called 10 the stand in the Hay
wood case when court met this morn
ing
Before the oross-examination of
Meyer was begun Mr.. Darrow, of the
defense, offered in evidence letter
written by John Murphy, of Denver,
general counsel of the federation, to
the local union at Silver City, Idaho,
at the time the matter of securing
counsel for Harry Orchard was under
consideration. The state objected and
was sustained. Mr.. Darrow then read
several extracts from the constitution
of the Western Federation of Miners,
which was admitted in evidence yes
terday.
Taking up the cross examination of
Meyer, Senator Borah first inquired as
TO where the real power Of the organ
ization between conventions existed.
Meyer said it rested in the executive
board, the president and the secretary
treasurer. He has been active or ex-
officio member of the executive board
ever since 1899 At the recent conven-
ton of the federation in Denver Meyer
said Jack Simpkins, the alleged accom-
plice of Harry Orchard, who has never
been apprehended, was continued in
Office as a member of the executive
board for Idaho, an alternate being ap-
pointed to take up his duties.
Meyer was very deliberate in his re-
plies again today, evidently weighing
his answers carefully in his mind be-
fore making them. lie said he was
living at Deadwood, S. d., during the
Occur dAlene troubles of 1899, but be-
came acquainted with many of the
members from that district at the Salt
Lake convention Of that year. He
also learned Of Governor Steunenberg's
part in the strike. Jack Simpkins was
one of the men Meyer met at the con-
vention He heard Simpkins tell of
the indignities he he suffered in the
Idaho bull pen" and knew what his
feelings were.
Senator Borah questioned the witness
closely as to the extent of the rule Of
the Federation to defend any of its
members accused of crime. Meyer de-
clared that no man was defended un-
less the executive board decided his
arrest had some connection with the
Western Federation Of Miners
IF a member of the federation should
kin a man on the streets of Boise you
would not defend him unless YOU felt
the federation was In some way in
volved in the affair?' suggested Borah.
"That is my understanding. We
would defend any one whose act grew
out of a strike or whose arrest We felt
was due To his connection with the
Western Federation of Miners.
"You don't hold it out as an induce
ment to members that the federation
will defend them for any crime COM
mitted, do your
mo, SIR"

gled and had to be held. After his head

"When Collins was brought here yester-
day he appeared to be all right said

he was not watched In his cell any more
than any other prisoner There was moth
ing noticed about him in the cell except
that he was nervous. We knew nothing
about the history of his case here until
read in the EVENING STAR last night
what his mother said about him"

cell bent down his head and flung his
body forward. The stool was found, over
