A REMARKABLE VICTORY
For Pres. Roosevelt In Holding to
Policy In Face of All Opposition.

London, March 30.-The Times this
morning, commenting editorially upon
what it describes as the remarkable
change which has occurred in the at
titude Of the political parties in the
United States towards President
Roosevelt and his policy says that his
award for holding to that policy
against all opposing is one Of the most
rcmarkab BILE personal victories ever won
in public life.
There is no policy before the people
of the United States says the Times,
except his policy. Party lines have
been obliterated and the three candi-
dates now before the country are po-
litically indistinguishable The pro-
grams are all of one color and that
color is new in American politics.
"That is very curious and interest
ing situation" continues the Times
1t revises ones faith in individual
worth and ability, proving that under
the most democratic forms man
may still impose his personality upon
the conduct of nations affairs"

SENSATIONAL BURGLARY.
Good Haul and Easy Escape from a
Woonsocket, r. J., Store.

Woonsockct, K. l., March 29.-Pro-
fessional safe blowers armed with
nitro-6lycerine, vaseline and soap,
blew Il safe in the third story office of
the J. NJ Mccarthy Dry Goods Co. on
May street early today and secured
$4,000 i'll money, three check books and
valuable papers, and effected their es-
cape without leaving a clue behind.
The work Of the burglars was most
sensational. They entered a block ad-
joining that Of the dry goods house,
walker up to the third floor and forced
an entrance to the tailor shop of 7.
Buckley. Opening the window of the
shop. they placed n ladder across the
six-foOt alley which divided the build
ing from that of the dry goods house,
rested it on the window of the office
of McCarthy's dry good store and
climbing across, forced the window.
Returning by the way they came, the
men gathered up several fine suits Of
clothes valued at $3.50, from the tailor
shops and made their escape.
The burglary was not made known
until late today when Charles Buckley,
son of T. Buckley, entered his fathers
shop and discovered the place had been
entered and robbed.

A CURIOUS FEATURE
Of the Affair Is That It Has Never
Taken Official Form.

Washington, March 29.-The curious
fact about the Hill incident is that in all
it's stages it has taken no official form.
Secretary Roots statement at the initial
stage, to the effect that Ambassador
Tower had Eotified him by cable that a
letter was on the way to Washington
which would throw some light upon the
matter, has been about all officially that
could be gained for publication.
Yet there has never been the slightest
doubt in diplomatic circles here OF the
accuracy of the first announcement that
DIR. Hill was not fully acceptable to En-
peror William. For at least fortnight
preceding the actual declaration there
was more or less quiet gossip about the
attitude Of the German court. Emperor
William is known to be of a warm, i'm
pulsive and sympathetic temper ament
and it was readily understood that he
could permit his feeling of personal
friendship for Ambassador Tower and
his wife to sway him to the extent of
being ready to look with. disfavor upon
their displacement.
The ambassadorial office is one of q
strongly personal character and il is ap-
preciated officially that the ambassador
coming, as he does, as personal repre-
sentative of the ruler whose credentials
he bears is entitled to admission into the
very family of the sovereign to whom
the credentials are directed. 1t follows
naturally that the wishes of that sover-
eign must be consulted and that the in
Guiry must be formal and there is not
the slightest reservation as to the right
of the sovereign to reject the nominee
without being held accountable in any
degree.
In the present instance it is believed
that Emperor William was animated not
by any aversion to Dr. Hill or his wife
but by wish to keep near him the Tow
ers. for whom he has conceived warm
friendship.

Arlington, Mass, March 29.-The
