Banks Safest Place for Money.
ATLANTA Constitution.)

Abb Gore, a wealthy farmer living
near Cuthbert, Ga, placed $500 in
currency between the mattresses OF
his bed for satekeeping. When he
went TO draw on his hoard, the
money was missing. No one knows
when or by whom the robbery was
perpetrated The main fact is that
an excess Of caution has cost this
worthy citizen a sum which, doubt
less, he can i'll afford to spare at this
time.
The Cuthbert instance is only one
OF number of similar ones reported
recently in The Constitution. The
result is always the same, however
various the Accomplishments. Some
times it is the old shoe that is called
into requiSition as a safety deposit
vault, and that is either burned or
given away with its precious con-
tents, 1t may be the old reliable"
stocking, which meets the same fate
Or, as has happened in a number of
cases, money has been drawn from
banks and secreted in any one Of an
innumerable diversity of hiding
places, only to be lost with the des-
truetion of the house by fire or its
plllaging by burglars.
Which emphasizes tie fact that the
only absolutely safe place Tor currea-
ey, in large or small amounts is in
the Banks of the towns and cities in
Georgia. It is, Of course, the inalien-
able right of men and women 10

that while no one has heard of even
the weakening of single bank from

PRICE OF RUEF'S PULL.
Proprietor of the Pup Says 1t Was
$4,000 a Year.

San Francisco, Cal, June Jean
Loupy for eight years proprietor of the
Pup restaurant was the first witness
called by the prosecution at the resump-
ton of the Schmitz trial today. The Pup
was, before the fire, Abe Ruef's political
headquarters.
On the evening of the day Delmoni-
co.'s liquor license was revoked Loupy
testified he called Ruef on the telephone
and made an appointment.
1.-The next day. said Loupy, "I called
on Ruef and asked why Delmonico's s
license was taken away.
''I suppose my turn will come next"
I said Cant you help us? Can't you
be our attorney and how much would
be your fee?
Mr.. Ruef said: Well, if you want
me to take your case as a lawyer, it
will cost you $1,000 a year on a contract
for two years. And the money must be
in currency-no checks CO.
'I went to the other restaurant keep
ers and told them. They said the price
was too much. Then Pierre Priet said:
I know Mr.. Ruef, I will go and see him
and fix this up
"A day or two later we had meeting
at Marchand's of the proprietors of the
Poodle Dog, Delmonico's, Marchand's,
The Pup and Bay State. Priet report
ed that he had been to see Mr.. Ruef and
that Mr.. Ruef would take our cases and
protect our license for $4,000 year. We
all five agreed to pay this and contrib
uted our shares. Priet took all of the
money and delivered it to Mr.. Ruef."
Cross examination by Mr.. Campbell
of the defense brought from Loupy the
emphatic statement that Ruef had
never come to the restaurant men and
offered his services or asked to be en-
ployed, but on the contrary he was
by himself in behalf of the
restauranteurs, that Ruef said he
would rather not take the case but if
they wanted him his fee would be ST.
600 a year.

TUCKER TAKES BLAME.
Says He Was Responsible for Affida-
Wits, Believing Them True.

Teavenworth, Kan, June ALBERT
L. Wilson, of Kansas City, and ex-At-
torney General Monett, of Ohio, repre-
senting H H. Tucker. the indicted sec
retary of the Uncle Sam Oil company
left last night for Washington to insti-
tute habeas corpus proceedings before
the United States supreme court to Sc
cure Mr.. fuckers release from the
Leavenworth county Jail.
The attorneys for Tucker said that
they will base their application for a
on the ground that Tucker is not guilty
of contempt for the reason that the
allegations in the affidavit can be
proven.
Tucker apparently does not regret the
filing of the affidavit. He said: Il will
ingly take all the blame for that affi-
davit and am going to stick to 1t to
the last. / think can prove that every
allegation in it is true, provided the
judges will give me an opportunity to

believing that the allegations contained
in it are true.
Tucker is not at all dispirited about
his confinement and is making prepara-
tions to do a good deal of work that
will give him physical exercise. He
said this morning: Il have not done
and 1 am going to ask Sheriff Brown
to allow me to spend a portion of my
time on the rock pile; the exercise viii

1t is reported that John Marshall, a
noted New York attorney frequently In
the employ of William r. Hearst, is
preparing to spring some sort of sem
sation to relieve his pent-up feelings as
a result of being barred out of the court
here. Judge Pollock refused him ad-
mission to practice before his court,
taking the matter under advisement
for the time being. Attorney Marshall
seems to feel very angry and seems de-
termined to make an effort to be al
lowed to be heard before Judge Pollock
He wanted to represent Tucker in this
case.
After Mr.. Tucker was sentenced yes
terday it was announced that the I'm
Gle Sam Oil company bankruptcy case
would go over until October. 1t was an
nounced last night, however, that the
bankruptcy hearing would come up in
the United States circuit court next
Tuesday and all interested were direct
ed to be ready to proceed with the
case at that time. 1t is said that Judge
John c. Pollock will not sit in the case.
One of the regular circuit judges will
come from st. Paul to preside. 1t is
not known yet which one will come.
The attorneys for Tucker and the I'm
Gle Sam Oil company have been very
anxious to have bankruptcy trial to
get the company property out of the

show that it is solvent and to prove that
it can meet all it's stock and bond OBJ
legations. 1t is probable that Tucker

TRUST ROUNDUP.
One Is Being Arranged by
President Roosevelt.
His Cabinet and Members of
Department of Justice.
ONECONFERENCE HELD
And Another One Is Scheduled
for This Evening.
Hartman Case and Harvester
Trust to Be Considered.

Washington, June Trust matters
and alleged violations of the Sherman
antitrust and other laws occupied the
attention of the president for a time to-
day and will be again resumed tonight
Milton D. Purdy, an assistant attorney
general, to whom has been turned over all
the evidence in the alleged discrimina-
tion by the anthracite coal carrying
roads against independent miners was
an early caller at the White House. He
would not discuss the interview with
the president.
Later Edwin w. Sims, United States
district attorney at Chicago, was with
the president Mr.. Sims is here for the
purpose of comforting with administra-
tion officials regarding evidence to be
brought before the federal grand jury
which meets in Chicago next Tuesday.
There are said to be several cases of
rebates by railways in violation of law
that may be brought to the attention of
that body. There also has been some
talk of proceedings against the so-called
Harvester trust. Mr.. Sims would not
say just what will be done.
Tonight at o'clock the president is
to confer with his advisors regarding z
the Hartman case and the charges
against various coal carrying railroads.
There was good deal of discus
sion about routine matters but we
saved the trusts for tonight" said a
member of the cabinet today, as he
was leaving the White House after the
usual Friday cabinet meeting.
There were three absentees, Messrs.
Cortelyou, Taft and Metcalf.
''Tonight's conference is to cover
several aspects of the Hartman case,
which are badly in need of discussion,
the socalled Harvester trust and the
charges against the bituminous rail-
roads," said one of the officials, who is
to participate in the meeting at the
White House tonight.
''In fact" he added, fE't11e meeting is
to be a general symposium on the
subject of the trust prosecutions. The
president warts to clear up the mat
ter as far as practicable and reach a
definitely settled programme on this
whole subject before he goes away for
the summer. In addition to members
of the cabinet there will be present
several officials from the department
of Justice and members of the inter-
state CONNIE cree commission

BURGEE CASE CONTINUED.
Preliminary Hearing of Cab Driver
Dove Postponed to June 10.

Coffeyville, Kan. June THE pre-
liminary hearing of Harry Dove, a cab
driver. charged with the murder of
DIR. Vale Burgee in this city the night
of March 3, was continued Thursday
until Monday. The reason for the con-
tinuance was the absence from the
county of J. r. Charlton, the county at
torney. Doves father arrived today
from Saltwater, Ok, bringing with him
an Oklahoma criminal lawyer, who,
with local attorneys announced that
Dove will fight the case to the end.
Dove is in Jail at Independence and
was not brought here. A new theory
now advanced in the case is that Bur
gee had caused trouble between a man
and his wife; that the angered husband,
who had been separated from his wife
for some time on account of the matter,
came here March 1, when he was seen
in the building where Burgess office
was the day of the dentists disappear
ance.

concede that commencing December

ratification of this agreement affects
10000 men who will return to work
at once. The machinists alone have
not yet signed the ratification, but it
is believed they will.

! GIRLS FIGHT POLICE.
Riotous Inmates of Industrial Home
Gagged and Bound.

Chillicothe, Mo-, June Forty un-
ruly girls at the state industrial home
today participated in a riot which re-
suited in a hurry call for the police ana
a sheriff's posse, and a hand-to-hand
fight before the mutfny was queiled.
The girls became unruly and refused
to do the bidding of the officers of the
home and created such disturbance
as to arouse the neighbors. The affair
soon got beyond the control of the Of
ficers of the institution and a riot call
was sent to police headquarters, which
was responded to by the chief and
detail of officers and the sheriff. The
officers worked several hours before
the inmates were gotten under control
The leaders who insisted by shouts
on keeping up the trouble were gagged
and locked up. The girls gave the offi-
GERS a hard struggle. Several officers
were stationed at the home all day.
