BURGLARS enter
WALLS new Store
Gets Into Warehouse But
Cannot Get At
Till

The new Wall, Nichols store on the
corner of Fort and Merchant streets,
was last night visited by burglar.
The midnight visitor was probably
attracted by the display of valuable
articles made In the store, but he was
doomed to meet with disappointment,
and all he got for his pains was a hi
cycle.
The burglar effected an entrance
through the back door OF the ware
house In the rear of the main store.
Here n great door consisting of two
leaves was forced open. the intruder
pulling out the lock, which was not
particularly strong, and then raising
one OF the leaves. which run on pull
leys, and lifting II from its groove,
forced II up and open.
In this way the burglar gained en-
trance to the warehouse. but this Is
separated from the store department
by a brick wall. and the only entrance
through this was barred by an iron
door, which was securely locked, and
which baffled the efforts of the
craftsman. While thus disappointed
in what was probably his main oh,
iect, namely the till, the burglar tool,
the only article In the warehouse
which he could safely get away with
namely new Cleveland bicycle be-
longing to ono of the clerks Of tho
store. s. Gum.
Manager Wall stated this forenoon
that as far as he could make out the
wheel was the only article missing
lie is today having the door which
was forced strengthened. The police
have been notified Of the occurrence
and are looking into the case.

ROOSEVELT ON THE
FORAKER INCIDENT.

In formal statement on the Foraker
issue, raised by Hearst, President Roos-
evelt bases another appeal for the sup,
port of Taft, whose defeat would bring,
he says, BLASTING satisfaction to but
one set of men, namely to those men
who are shown in the correspondence
published by Mr. Hearst, were behind
Mr.. Foraker, the opponent of Mr.. Taft
within his own party and who are now
behind Governor Haskell and his asso-
ciates, the opponents of Mr.. Taft in
the opposition party
Roosevelt IS statement is a reminder
of the fact that Taft objected to an
endorsement in Ohio in the same reso-
luton that endorsed Foraker for re-
election to the Senate and refers to the
Brownsville agitation raised by Foraker
in the Senate as phase of the effort
by the representatives of certain law
defying corporations to bring diseredit
upon the Administration, - not ga gem
uine agitation on behalf of colored men
at ALL
"The publication of this correspon.
ienee," wrote the President, ''not |
merely justifes in striking fashion the
action of the Administration, but also
casts a serious sidelight on the attacks
made upon the Administration both in !
he Denver Convention, which nominat- |
I'd Mr.. Bryan, and in the course of Mr.. !
Bryan s campaign. There is but one |
way to preserve and perpetuate the
great reforms, the great advances in
righteousness and upright and fair deal |
ne, which have marked the manage
nent of the affairs of the National
government during the last seven
-ears, and that is by electing Mr..
Taft"

special officer Ali of the detective
bureau, on charges bearing upon his
alleged action with Chinese gamblers.
The latter case goes before the Grand

games to be played and to which he
would shut his eyes. They also swear
