aU L. CLEVELAND, 50 years old,

w l. CLEVELAND, 80 years old,
w a machinery salesman living
W at $50 North Soto street, was
held up by four men shortly before
o'clock last night, robbed of $50 and a
gold watch valued at 500, and beaten
brutally.
The robbery occurred within block
of Cleveland's home. He was walking
south on Soto street, having just
alighted from a Brooklyn avenue car.
As he approached Michigan avenue he
saw four men cross the street and
walk toward him. As they came up the
men separated, two walking on each
side of him Then one of them wheeled
and faced the victim, showing a revolt
yer in his face with the remark:
Throw up your hands you -
Cleveland obeyed the order and, while
the leader of the gang covered him with
the weapon the others searched his
pockets.
The men appeared careless in their
search and Cleveland thought he could
save his watch. He lowered his right
hand and attempted to draw his watch
from his vest pocket and throw II to q
place of safety. This move was de-
tected by the man with gun, who
cursed the victim and struck him a
heavy blow in the mouth with the re-
volYer.
AS soon as he was struck Cleveland
began to yell for help. This seemed to
anger the robbers, and they began to
beat him on the head, evidently trying
to render him unconscious and hush the
noise.
The men had made a thorough search
of Clevelands pockets by this time,
and finding they were unable to knock
him out, fed across the street. There
they separated, two going toward
Brooklyn avenue and the others con-
-tinuing down Soto street
Although Cleveland continued to cry
for help no one came to his aid, and he
hurried home and telephoned the police
station. Motorcycle Patrolmen Humph-
rey and Coe were sent to investigate.
They made the trip from the station to
the scene of the holdup in record time.
but when they reached there could find
no trace of the men.
Cleveland boarded a car and went TO
the receiving hospital where Police
Surgeon Quint sewed three decorations
in his head and cut on his finger.
Cleveland told his story to the de-
tectives and gave them a good descrip-
ton of the man who held the revolver.
Il do not mind losing the money SO
much as / do my watch" said CIeve-
land. lit was given to me by my
father, who is now dead. 1t was pre-
scented to him many years ago by en-
ployes of the Central City Railway
company at Peoria, Ill, and was highly
priced by him. The robbers even took
a pocket knife that had been given to
me by my son for Christmas present"

MEET IN MADRAS
TO QUELL RIOTS
INDIAN INTERNATIONAL CON
GRESS IN SESSION
Leader Whose Candidacy for Election
as President Caused Fight Dis
cusses Present Situas
ton There
fBx Associated Press.l

MADRAS. Dec 2S.-The first session
Of the Indian International congress
today was entirely harmonious and the
meeting this year promises TO clear
the air and put a danper on the ac-
tivities of the agitators who recently
caused much anxiety.
At the last meeting of the congress,
just a year ago, opposition to the cleo
ton, of DR.. Behari Ghoz as president
resulted in free fight and caused the
congress to be indefinitely postponed.
Referring to the Morley reforms, Dr..
Ghoz declared today that they had
broken up the sinister clouds that had
hung over India for the last twelve
months, and he said they would give
India something like a constitutional
government instead of the unpopular
autocratic regime.
Continuing, DR.. Ghoz criticised all
repressive legislation He said British
sovereignty could not be shaken by
"a few TASKS of picric acid, or a few
pounds of gunpowder," and he hoped
that the genuine cooperation of the
Indians with the British government
would lead to the obtaining of colonial
self government.
The reform proposals referred to in
the foregoing dispatch, unfolded by
Lord Morley secretary of state for
India, in the house of lords on Decem-
Der II, are, briefly, as follows:
/. To increase the membership of
both the Judicial and the viceroys
council by nomination and election,
giving the different classes of the COM
naunity each its representative.
g To repeal the prohibition against
the legislative councils discussing mat
ters of general Importance.
8. To increase the executive councils
of Bombay and Madras from two to
four members each,
4. To give the lieutenant governor an
executive council of two members.
s. To adopt a device to secure an Of
fetal majority.

NIGHT WITHOUT A DRIVER

NEW YORK, Dec. 2S.-Running al
most noiselessly and without lights, a
black taxicab whizzed by Policeman
John Holland at Sixtieth street and
West End avenue last night while
Holland shouted in vain for the chauf-
feur to stop and explain why he had
no lights.
The mystery was cleared up a few
moments later when the taxicab
struck a freight car standing ION, a
spur track of the New York Central

When the angry policeman viewed
the ruins, expecting to find q mangled
chauffeur, he found no semblance of
human form.
The cab had been running without
a driver evidently having been turned
adrift by some thief who had stripped
il oe robes and dttinas.
