ROBBERS.
JanitOr 60 Years Old Is Beaten
and ChlOrofOrmed
BY Thieves i'm an Effort to Sc

New York, Oct. 10.-An aged watch
! mans faithful performance of his duty
even when death was threatened pre-
! vented a robbery early today, which, IL
it had been successful, those familiar
/ with the case say, would have caused a
sensation almost as great as that which
followed the looting of the Manhattan
bank many years ago. Richard F. Grey,
Waterman in the lofty Century building
| at "A Broadway. near the center of the
financial district, was the hero. He IS
now in the hospital suffering from
wounds which he received in des-
perate single handed fight against two
robbers who attacked him while he was
making his rounds on the 18th floor at
/ ter midnight
! Although 60 years old, Grey made
most determined fight against his as
sailants and it was not until he had
Deen battered until almost unconscious
that he was overcome. Even then ne
refused to reveal to the robbers the hid
ing place of the keys to the hundreds
Of offices in the great building. In their
desperation the robbers chloroformed
the old man as he lay bleeding on the
floor and then began a systematic
search of the lower portion of the build
ing for the missing keys Apparently
they were unsuccessful in their search,
for when Grey revived and staggered
down the nineteen flights Of stairs to
the basement the men nad Unsupported
Grey gave a good description of his as
sailants and the police believe they will
be captured.
detective who had a talk with Grey
is of the opinion that a clerk at one
time employed in the building was the
instigator of the attempted robbery. and
that his companion was an expert bank
thief. eff these men had gotten the
keys from the Waterman" said the de-
tective, they would have done job
that that would have made the Man
haitian bank robbers look like a cheap
affair. They were after one safe in that
building and that was all they wanted.
They knew that the securities in that
safe were worth untold thousands and
they also knew that to attempt to force
the door would ring burglar alarms and
in an instant the building would be sur
rounded by police
AS result of the attempted robbery
scores of extra detectives and additional
police from dozen stations were
guarding the financial district today. A
Gordon of men was drawn around the
district bounded by Wall and Cedar
and B, Nassau and Greenwich streets
and a search was made in all buildings
in that territory into which thieves
could force their way, but no trace of
the desperadoes could be found.

WILL SELL HER STABLE.
Noted Horsewoman Will Give Up the
Business.

New York, Oct. 1o.-Mrs. John
Gerken, one of the most successful
women exhibitors of horses in this
country, and the owner of Gerkendale
farm, Gravesend, L. l., has decided to
sell her stable of prize winners. The
sale will include the noted PAGERS,
Newsboy and Shopgirl, but it will not
take place until after the horse show
in Madison Square garden in Novem~
Der. Mrs. Gerken's reason for dispos-
ing of her stable is that she expects to
make a long trip in Europe.
Mrs. Gerken has been prominent as
an exhibitor and horsewoman for a
number of years and she has the I'M
usual distinction of having entirely by
herself picked her horses in the rough
and trained and gated them. The
gelding Newsboy is many times a blue
ribbon horse and is credited with more
than one hundred first prizes at the
New York and other horse shows.
Shopgirl is almost as valuable har-
ness horse. Other horses in the stable
are Brandon and Belmar, the ponies
Doncaster Model, Torchlight and Cock
Sparrow, and the saddle horses Mayo,
Redwood and Surprise.

FRENCH WANT MONEY.
American Bankers See Prospect of
Gold Shipments.

New York. oct. lot is an
nounced that international banking
circles which a week ago considered
gold exports to Paris out of the ques-
ton this fall, have been brought face
to face with the possibility of ship
ments to the French capital by cables
from Paris announcing that the Bank
of France was offering inducements
to- secure gold.AA tsForeign exchange
rates moved in such fashion yester-
day that actual shipments were less
than one-sixteenth of a point away,
and this small margin may, of course,
be overcome at any moment. Bankers
say that our debts in France are now
maturing daily in considerable vol
ume, and that country wants pay
ment in money. In order to make
such payments bankers have either to
buy exchange, or if exchange can not
be obtained, to pay in gold. Bills of
exchange are exceedingly scarce, it is
stated, and unless they come forward
in considerable volume and quickly,
there seems to be nothing in sight, 1t
is declared, but gold remittances to
Paris.

Years Ago Comes Up.

Pittsburg, Kan, Oct 10.-The trial of
c. c. Laws, charged with the murder of
Albert Powell, has begun in the district
court here. The jury has not yet been
selected. Laws shot Powell in joint
here three years ago. Laws was a horse
trader and Powell was a salesman.
Powell boarded at the Laws home while
Laws was in Texas on business. Laws
accused Powell of being the cause of
trouble in the Laws family and threat
ened to shoot him.
Laws found Powell in a saloon one
night and shot him in fight. Laws
has refused to make any statement to
the officers regarding the killing. He
was admitted to bond soon after the
killing and the case has been postponed
several times.

KIPLING POINTS THE WAY.
Gives British CoIumbians Advice on
immigration Problem

Victoria, B. c., Oct. 10.-Rudyard Kip
ling at luncheon at the Canadian club
yesterday speaking of the immigration
problem of British Columbia, said the
solution was the aiding of imnigra ton
of people of British stock thousands of
whom await an opportunity to come to
Canada's vast territories; the time has
arrived to choose between this desired
reinforcement of ones own stock and
the undesired rush of races whose in
stincts are separate by thousands of
years. The choice cannot be delayed ;
it must be made at once.
Mr.. Kipling will return to England via
Canada without visiting the United
States on his present trip.
