900 disappeared from Burlington

The train left Denver with seven sacks
and but four remained when 1t reached

Superintendent J. M. Butler OF the
Sixth division Of railway mail clerks
believes the robbery took place just
west of the Nebraska line. Both mail
clerks were asleep while the train was
passing a long stretch of track with
few stations. Butler believes some
one slipped into the mail car and
threw the sacks out of the window.
He has ascertained that the valuables
were all in two of the sacks, one be,
ing empty.
Seven sacks of registered mail were
placed on the Kansas City train leav.
ing Denver over the Burlington Sun
day night. These sacks were destined
for Chicago and were supposed to be
placed on the Chicago train at Ok
ford, Neb. Three of the registered
sacks were missing when Oxford was
reached.

warned to be cautious about giving
out information on the robbery.

Mr.. TAFT'SPLATFORM
Secretary Makes Confession Of
Faith at Columbus, 0.
fAv0RS REVISION CT TARIFF
Advocates Enlargement Of the Powers
Of Commerce Commission and En-
foresmsnt Of Antitrust Law.

Columbus. o.. Aug 20.-Before the
Buckeye Republican club here Secre-
tary of War William H. Taft fired
what is accepted as the first gun In
his presidential campaign.
The gun was not wanting in am
munition. Tariff revision as soon as
possible after the next presidential
election and amendment of the new
rate law so as to extend the powers
OF the interstate commerce commits
sion, prevent over-capitalization OF
railroad corporations, control the per-
sonnet of directorates and permit
agreements as TO rates between COM
peting lines formed part OF the plans
which he outlined as belonging TO the
policy of the Republican party.
William J. Bryan's theories and po-
litical predictions came in for some
hard raps during Mr.. Taft's speech.
He paid special attention to the pro-
posals for government ownership OF
railroads and the initiative and referen-
d,lm as impossible and ridiculous in
national affairs and denounced govern
ment ownership of the railroads as
too expensive, both in acquiring and
maintaining the roads, and as giving
too much power to any INSCRIPTIONS
official who might get into power.
Bryan Not the Originator.
He secuted Bryan's claims as the
originator OF the Roosevelt policies
and declared that while President
Roosevelt's policies are based on the
belief In firm government and the hon.
esty OF man In the face Of the money
power" Mr.. Bryan's government would
be weakling. hindered by the very
distrust in which 1t was born and able
to accomplish nothing and to meet no
crisis.
Rigid enforcement Of the antitrust
law and amendment to make the pro-
visions of that law more clear were
advocated by the speaker and he fol-
lowed this with the declaration that
he believed heartily In the good effect
that II would have TO imprison some OK
the men who are disregarding the
statutes for their personal gain. He
attacked swollen fortunes" as dan
gerous to the community and to the
nation at large and offered remedies
to reduce them, both by state and ma
tional legislation. He expressed favor
for a graduated Inheritance tax, to be
adopted by congress, particularly In
case the public revenues need increas
ing or readjustment.
In closing Mr.. Taft declared his I'M
bounded admiration for President
Roosevelt and the work he has accom-
plished, and expressed satisfaction at
the strength of position the Repub-
lican party had gained through the
leadership of the present national ex-
ecutive.

BIG SHRINKAGE IN VALUES
Heavy Aggregate Loss by Drop In
Price Of Stocks.

New York, Aug. 1.-THE past week
in the stock market was the most sen
sational in some years. Prices went
lower for many active issues than in
the panic of May, 1901, and the shrink
age in values of some stocks ranged
from S15,000,000 to $25,000,000 The
causes which made the decline were
fear engendered by the threats Of fur
Their radical legislation by the federal
and various state governments, the
threatened money stringency and In
dubitable evidence OF recession In va
rious branches OF business. Added
to this was the failure of large New
England manufacturing concern and
rumors OF similar embarrassment else
where. The local situation was fur
ther complicated by the advance In
the discount rate of the Bank of Eng
land and the generally unsettled con-
ditions at the various Continental
money centers.
