LAST YEARS .TOPCOAT.
WILL TRY TO RAISE YANKEE
JOHN ARBUCKLE UNDERTAKES
THE CONTRACT.
To Get Half His Money Back If
He Fails After Spend
ing $4,000.

Jot1n Arbuckie, the sugar fefiner OF New
York, Is to undertake the floating of the
cruiser Yankee, which three weeks ago
went ashore on Spindle rock, at the en-
trance Of Buzzard's bay.
He entered into contract for that work
with Secretary Metcalf today. -dr. Ar
buckle is to float the vessel, to furnish all
appliances necessary in the work, and is
to tow her to the Brooklyn navy yard, for
doing which successfully he is to receive
$S7, 800.
A PROVISION in the contract is that Mr..
Arbuckle shall expend up to $4,000 fol
the prosecution. Of the work. and then, If
he Is not successful and the attempt to
float the ship has to be abandoned. the
government will pay him $4,000 If at
any time the work is to be stopped, how
ever. because of reasons not under the
control Of the contractor, then he Is to be
reimbursed to the extent of one-half of
the money spent by him.
Ever since the Yankee stranded the
Navy Department has been making ef-
forts to get her off the rocks. Finally
resort was made to outside help. but the
only previous bid for salving the vessel
was 100000. 1t was considered too high
by the navy officials. 1t is understood that
Mr.. Arbuckle contemplates the use of
compressed air In carrying on the work
Of floating the vessel.

BETRAYED BY HIS COMPANION
WOMAN LEADS TO ARREST OF
NOTORIOUS JEWEL THIEF.
$25, 900 in Diamonds and $4,000
in Watches Recovered From OPP
orator Nabbed in st. Louis.

ST. LOUIS. Mo-, October 13.-The police
of New York. Chicago and Kansas City
were notified by the st. Louis police last
night of the arrest here of Foster George
on a charge of stealing diamonds and
watches worth $35, 900 from S. c. Powell,
a wholesale jeweler at 40 Broadway,
New York. and arrests are expected in
these cities
Twenty-Five thousand dollars worth of
the jewels were recovered from George
yesterday. Diamonds known to have been
carried by Powell when he left Chicago
for st. Louis June % have appeared in
pawnshops in st. Louis, Kansas City and
Chicago.
This led the detectives to believe that
an organized band was connected with
the robbery, and this belief was not en-
tirely dispelled by the arrest of George
yesterday, though he refused last night
to name any accomplices.
Gems Found in Shoes.
George was betrayed into the hands of
the police by Mabel Mccoy, a companion
with whom he quarreled after refusing
some of her requests for money.
When the police raided Georges room
at 2319 Pine street diamonds were found
in every possible hiding place.
A razor. case was stuffed with gems
worth 1000; in valise were nearly 1O10
small diamonds; in Georges shoes were
dozens of gems, some Of them as large as
two CaratS.

they say:
Said parties respectfully show to the
court that there are about 500 banks In
the state of Oklahoma subject to the
operation of the law. and that all OF said
banks, as well as all OF their deposftors
and the public generally, in the state or
Oklahoma, are vitality interested IN tne
decision Of the said case.
Said parties further respectfuiiy SNOW
to the court that one OF the candidates
for President of the Unied States fs now
running on a platform advocating an ACT
of Congress similar to that passed py
the legislature of the state OF Oklahoma.
and that the subject OF a guarantee OF
hank deposits is one which has become
of interest not only to the people OF
Oklahoma. but to the people OF the entire
limited States.

HASKELL TO THE PRESIDENT.
Not Satisfied With Explanation Of
Oil Land Leases.

KANSAS CITY, Mo-. October lS.-Sov.
c. n Haskell Of Oklahoma who arrived
here this morning from Guthrie; gave to
the Associated Press copy OF a letter
addressed to President Roosevelt. on the
subject Of the leasing to f. B. Foster In
1896 Of 6SO.OOO acres Of Usage Indian oil
lands, which Gov. Haskell calls ''the rich

his letter. upon cancellation Of this
lease in the interest of these citizens OF

to declare this improvident and unjust
lease void, and secure for the Usage ma
ton the just and reasonable compensation
that other owners are receiving.
Gov. Haskell says an explanation made
in a letter he had received from Frank
Pierce, acting secretary of the Interior
Department, to which the controversy has
been referred by President Roosevelt. Is
unsatisfactory.
Gov. Haskell declares that In the fran
chise granted to the Prairie Oil Company.

PHILADELPHIA MINT RESUMES
Starts Up With Full Force After
Three Months 1d1eness.

PHILADELPHIA, October 13.-After
three months Of practical idleness the
United States mint in this city has re-
sumed operations with full force and at
full hours in order to supply the pressing
demands from banks in all sections. east
and west. for coins Of various denomina-
tions with which to meet the increasing
requirements of current and prospective
business.
1t was on June % last when coinage
ceased at the mint and the working forces
there were dismissed until such time as
the country's currency requirements
should call for their employment.
Orders from the Treasury Department
are expected to be sufficient to keep the
mint engaged not only during the fall,
but all winter and it is quite possible
that it will be necessary later to- extend
the work into extra hours.
For the present coinage will be con-
fined for. the most part to the production
OF subsidiary silver coins, half dollars.
quarter dollars and dimes, as well as the
minor coins, nickels and pennies. the de-
mands from the banks being principally
for their immediate use.
