the u. s. grand jury Wednesday by
u. S. Commission M. .. Mckenzie,
charged with robbing the Mannhaven
postofIice OF sos in cash and Sos in
stamps on the night Of August 20.
The arrest Of Dolbow was men
toned by the Tribune the day after
the crime, but the details Of the rob
berry did not come into public view
until the hearing Of the case before
the commission
The story Of the robbery and the
subsequent actions OF the robbers,
which were ferreted out by Postofice
Inspector John H. Lucey. Is like a
tale Of fiction.
g Early in August the three alleged
robbers hired out to the owner Of the
boat, each coming separately to the
owner and pretending to be strang-
ers, although 1t has been learned
since that they were we'll acquainted
before and have probably been gull

When Mannhaven was reached on
Aug. 60 the three men spent most Of
the afternoon rowing the city and

Oyster Bay, N. j., Sept. 10.-While
Attorney General Charles Bonaparte
was in conference with President
Roosevelt this afternoon report of
the decision rendered in Philadel-
phia today by the United States cir
cult court, that the commodities
clause of the Hepburn railroad act
is unconstitutional was conveyed to
the presidents home by the Assoc
lated Press.
After a discussion they came to
the conclusion that the United States
department of justice should take an
appeal. Mr. Bonaparte, as he was
departing for New York, was asked
whether he had any statement to
make regarding the decision. He
replied that he had none except that
he would take steps to appeal. He
would say nothing about what the
president had said in regard to the
decision.

Philadelphia. Pa, Sept. 10.-De-
claring it to be harsh and unreason-

of the states, and therefore repug-
nant to the constitution, the United

petition of the government attorneys
for rehearing Of the appeal from
Judge Lands judgment filing the

cision of Judges Grosscup, Baker and
Seaman Of the United States court
of appeals, reversing the judge and
lifting the burden Of the enormous
fine, as good law and amply justified
by the record in the case.
Point by point the answer takes
up the arguments of the petition fol-
a rehearing which set forth alleged
errors and suggested that the upper

of what the trial Judge really had
said concerning previous offenses By

only, Or COMPEL the railroads to sell
all the mining properties they are
interested in, either directly or in
directly.
The decision of the court did not
come as a, great surprise. 1t is al
most certain that the case will be
appealed directly to the United
States supreme court. The princi-
pal opinion is written by Judge Gray
who, as promoter of the anthracite
strike commission, has an intimate
knowledge of the mining of hard
coal and of the many ramifications
in the ownership of the coal mines.
Judge Dallas said in his opinion that
it cannot be denied that the com.
modities clause was enacted mot &C
tually for the regulation Of inter
state commerce, but really to coerce
conformity of intra-state business
with policy approved by the COM
panies." Judge Gray in his opinion

The selection of Wesley L. Jones as

For the first thirty rounds the ma

pitched, it could be plainly seen from

at these two places, the Democratic
candidate for president later on at

hours, openly accused the speaker OF
telling a falsehood. When the speaker
fixed Mr.. Bryan's wealth at million
