TWENTY MEN ARRESTED
To Rid Chicago of Hold-Up Men and
Pick Pockets Is Aim of Mayor
Busse and Chief Shippy.

More than twenty thieves and pick
pockets-some of them criminals of in
ternational reputation-wer shown to
the detectives in the Central bureau
at the nightly lineup last night, as the
result of the first days work of the
picked men sent out by Captain p. d.
O'Brien to rid Chicago of its recent
influx of criminals
The detectives, divided into four
squads, confined their first days work
to the west side thieves district around
West Madison and Halsted streets and
the near neighborhood of Peoria, San
CANON and Green streets. The lodg-
ing houses and the saloons known as
resorts for criminals were raked by the
detectives, who had been laying plans
for their catches during the last week

The most important man caught in
the dragnet was John Scully. London
pickpocket. He was picked up in
Johnny Carr's saloon at Green and
West Congress streets, well known
resort where Mike Silk and Sleepy"
Burke were arrested for the Evanston
street car holdup a few years ago.
Scully was the name the prisoner gave,
but he is thought to be man of wide
reputation. AS soon as he was ar
rested-in fact, before the police had
time to take him to the station-he
had obtained the services of a lawyer.

o'clock he was released on bonds. In
this way he escaped the lineup before
the entire squad OF Central detectives
at o'clock.
Attorney Erbstein admitted that
Scully was travelling under a false
name and that he was afraid his client
would be recognized as a wanted
man If he was shown up to all the
detectives. He insisted that "Scully'
had not done a stroke of real thief's
work for six months. q

GERMAN EMPRESS HURT
WHILE PLAYING TENNIS

Wilhelmshohe, Aug. 23.-The empress
slipped on the wet ground and fell,
spraining her ankle. while she was
playing tennis. The accident will COM
pei her to take a long rest and will
oblige her to abandon her intention of
visiting the cities of Schwerin, Han
over, and Munster
Her majesty has had three other ac-
cidents in the last eight years. One
day in July, 1899. while at Berchtes-
gaden, she was walking along a forest
path when she slipped and sprained
her right foot. Again at Cadinen in
1902 the empress fell while stepping
out of a steam launch and twisted one
of her ankles, which kept her in bed
for several days.
She was thrown from her horse white
out riding in the Gruenewald, near
Berlin. in 1908, breaking her right
forearm. The emperor himself set her
arm and bound it up with bark splints.

New York. August 22.-There is hona
among the striking telegraphers that
the end of the strike is close at hand
With the arrival or President Small
of the Commercial Telegraphers' union
and Labor Commissioner Neill in this
city on Saturday they expect that ar
bttration preliminaries VIII be taken
up.
While the telegraph company off,
Gals are positive in stating that the
strike is broken and that they will
not treat with any one seeking TO
bring about arbitration, there is no
doubt that the strike is anything but
satisfactory to them Strike leaders
claim plenty Of evidence is at hand to
show that the Western Union is send

that telegram was sent to a reporter

telegram was delivered in Harlem fr-
teen minutes after the traveller from

showing that the Western Union is
losing $4,000 a day and the Postal
$4,000 a day because OF the strike.
They claim that only ninety two mes
sages were sent over the principal
wire between New York and Chicago
by the Postal yesterday. Daniel Rus

egy of the strikers organization, says
he has proof that the Postal is hand
ling only 10000 messages a day here,
where the normal number is IS, 900,
and that the Western Union business
has dropped from 5000 a day to 20. 900.

ON NEGRO PROBLEM
Pays Tribute to Law Abiding Colored
Men and Says They Will Soon
Have Equal Suffrage.

Lexington, KY Aug %. In an ap-
peal to Kentucky and the south to
rally under the republican banner in
the coming campaign, to cease being
the perpetual tail of the democratic
party" and play a larger part in the
councils of the nation Secretary Taft
in his speech here today plunged
boldly into the race problem. He paid
a tribute to the law abiding and pro-
gressive negroes and their leader.
Booker T. Washington, and expressed
the opinion the day is coming when
the intelligent negro will have equal
political and economic rights with the
white man.
Declaring that the negro is an Ameri-
can and loyal, Secretary Taft said 1T
is our duty to see to it that his path
is made as easy as possible and that
his progress is as incessant as proper
encouragement can make it."
Il know" said the secretary, that
the discussion of the northern man of
the question is apt to rouse on the
part of the southern democrat the OBJ
lection that he does not understand
the question; that he does not know the
difficulties of it, and that If he can't
take it up with sympathy with the at
titude of the white man of the south
he had better not take 1t up at all.
On the other hand, he is liable to en-
counter the criticism of the colored
| man, who, with a natural SensitiVeneSs
and interest in his race and remember
ing the wrongs and oppression to
| which their race has, in times
past been subjected, resent on the part
| of the northern man any attitude OF
the southern white man, or which man
ifests the slightest consideration for his
| view.

PIERCE GREAT ARROW FOR
1908.
1908.

For 1908 the Geo. N. Pierce Co. will
still continue their regular four cyl
inder forty-ive Horse Power and six
cylinder sixty-fve Horse Power Mod
els and will also build a six cylinded
forty Horse Power car. This car will
have a I3o-inch wheel base and have
seating capacity of seven persons, the
cylinders are four and %one-qualter
by four and three-quarters inches and
this forty Horse Power engine under
a load shows fifteen per cent more
power than the four cylinder forty
five Horse Power. Two of these
cars have just completed the Glidden
Tour with perfect scores as also did
one of the sixty-tive II. P. cars and a
forty. five II. P. This makes hree
years in fact every year the Glidden
Tour has been run that the Pierce
cars have won the trophy, which is
on exhibition at the Pierce Co.'S store
in Buffalo.
Tom Botterill the local agent for
the Pierce have just received word
that their first forty Horse Power
six cylinder car will be in Salt Lake
the latter part of November and the
sixty-fve H. p. six cylinder will be
here the first part of November. For
Salt Lake City and surrounding coun-
try the Pierce Company have allotted
twelve cars and as four of these are
already sold, the Pierce will as in for
mer years be bringing a premium in
this section. The cars are allotted to
come through in certain months and
Mr.. Botterill is now taking orders
for deliveries on these cars for 1908
deliveries. Deliveries this coming
year will be guaranteed and as the
immense new factory of the Pierce
Co. is now all fully working the cars
will come through to the day when
they are promised.
