EMBASSY IHEF1S ARE PETTY

FORFEIT THEIR COLLATERAL.
Their Cases Continued in the Po-
lice Court This Morning.
Stories Exaggerated.

The cases of larceny against George
Chism and John Harrington. arrested on
a charge of entering the British embassy
and stealing a quantity of property while
repairs were In progress on the building.
were filed in the Police Court this morn
ing, and at the instance of the attorneys
for the prosecution the cases were con-
tinued until October 2. The complainant
named in the papers In each of the two
cases is Henry Hobbs, an attendant at
the legation, who is at present with AM
bassadOr and Mrs. Bryce on the Atlantic
on the way to this country.
The two charges filed allege that Sep
TENDER 10 Chism stole seven coins valued
at $1.00 from the room of Hobbs at the
embassy. and that September Is Har-
rington stole a pair of cuff buttons val
ued at Is cents from the same place.
Chism and Harrington are at liberty un-
der $50 and SIS collateral. respectively.
The third prisoner arrested In connection
with the thefts at the embassy, William
Owens, sixteen years old, has been re-
leased. after they convinced themselves
that he knew nothing of the affair.
According to the police, Harrington and
Chism both admit entering the room of
Hobbs at the embassy on the dates men,

toned in the papers. Beyond these two
small thefts. however, they deny that
they took anything, and emphatically de-
ny knowing anything of the thefts of the
jewelry from other portions of the build
ing. So far no trace has been found Of
the latter articles. and the police of the
third precinct are eXerting every effort
In their power to locate 1t in the local
pawnshops and second hand jewelry es-
Establishments.
The theory of the police relative to
the robbery has narrowed down to
petty thefts committed by employees Of
contractors who have had charge of re-
pairing the embassy. and they do not
believe the thefts have extended any
further than those already reported
The idea that persons have entered the
building for the purpose Of committing
any big robbery or stealing state docu-
thorities regret that a report Of this
nature has been circulated, as 1t has
no foundation whatever.
Searched Chism's Home.
After learning that Chism stole the
coins from Hobbs room the authorities
procured a warrant and proceeded to
search Chism's home on Canal road.

questioning stated that her son brought
the coins into the house a day or SO after
the theft was committed, and thinking
they were of no value she threw them

Convert to Negro Church.

Determined that she would not be
stopped in her effort to join the colored
Church of God and Saints Of Christ, Mrs.
Lizzie Steele, a white woman, twenty
six years of age, of 715h Sth street
northwest, went to Philadelphia yester-
day, ostensibly for the purpose of at
tending a convention of this church in
session in the Quaker city this week.
The Washington police were asked yes
terday by w. H. Harris on, a clerk in the
War Department, who resides at S13 10th
street northwest, and who said he was
an uncle of Mrs. Steele, to try to locate
her.

every evening. At each meeting the con-
gregation is large. Rev. Oliver Tyler is

Chairman Woodruff Glum

State Chairman Woodruff was the
glummest man In Saratoga when he went
to breakfast at 10 o'clock today. He said:
81 don't know that any cable message
was sent to Ambassador HILL did not
send one and am not expecting one from
him. His name was considered in the
conference, but I don't know that any
thing will come Of it,
Then you expect the denomination of
Gov Hughes on the first ballot?" was
asked.
II have not said that" Mr.. Woodruff
replied.
Ex-Gov. B. B. Odell, jr., who was in
the conference from start to finish, said
today: Il guess there are a lot of crazy
men opposed to Hughes. I doubt if any
thing comes of the Hill combination
State Senator Horace White. one of the
anti-Hughes candidates for the nomina-
ton. said: II don't know what is going
to happen. I'm not gutter and my
name may be presented to the convention.
That isn't yet finally decided. 1 don't see
much prospect Of any definite result from
the combination on Mr. HILL"

Opposition's Last Night.

All elements of opposition to the re-
nomination of Gov. Hughes united this
morning on Prof. David Jayne Hill, pres
ent American ambassador to Germany.
The agreement on Ambassador Hill was
brought about at o'clock this morning
as dramatic climax to one of the most
remarkable conferences ever held in a
political state convention. The confer
ence in question, after agreeing on Am
bassador Hill. and cabling him of the
decision, took a recess until 10 O'Clock
to await his answer.
The one positive statement that could be
obtained from the tired and sleepy men,
bers of the conference when it adjourned
was that the agreement on Hill was
probably the last stand in the fight
against Hughes.
It was generally agreed that the am
bassdor would not return final answer
to the offer until he had communicated
with President Roosevelt. This morning
the tired delegates began to send home
for money and make up their minds to
stay here until Thursday at least.
The day was not old before it became
evident that the Hill agreement was in
reality a stagefall for the anti-Hughes
forces. Representative Cocks who is
regarded here as the personal representa-
tive of the President, fairly choked with
glee when he heard of the Hill combina-
ton. He said:
Nothing will come Of it. Just wait
until the President hears what they are
trying to do. He won't do a thing.

News of the combination was telephoned
to Oyster Bay early this morning.

SARATOGA. N. Y. September 1.-the
name of DR.. David Jayne Hill, ambassa-
dor of the United States to Germany,
was that about which the anti-Hugnes
"alles" made their last attempt at a
stand today.
1t stood the subject of gossip from about
3 until about 8 am, and then vanished,
not because of any question of the fitness
of DR.. Hill for the Office of governor. but
because the suggestion of his name failed
to furnish what the opposition has all
along lacked-internal cOherency. The
elimination of DR.. Hill was complete
when dispatches were received from Oys-
ter bay to the effect that the Hill propo-
sition was not regarded there with favor.
The state ticket to be nominated here
this afternoon, as far as it has been made
up. is as follows:
Governor, Charles E. Hughes, renomi-
mated.
Lieutenant governor, Horace White of
Syracuse.

Republican Calamity and Sanity

The Foraker program in Ohio against
Taft has been stated by Senator Dick,
ito appeal to the people and business
men OH the ground that sanity and
prosperity are tbetter than unchecked
reform and calamity" That PROPOSE
ton, therefore, acknowledges that the
Republican Administration has been a
failure and has produced calamity and
panic. Congress. which includes Dick
and Foraker, is also responsible for The
fact that tariff protection is not panic
proof and does not produce prosperity,
as much as the President is, for the
Republican majority of Congress has
refused to revise the tariff which shell
tiers the trusts and has omitted to re-
wise our financial laws to meet new
conditions. What is the use, there
fore, of the appeal to the people and
business men, who are suffering from
Republican Encouragement, for they
will certainly turn a deaf ear to those
who have led them to their present
pass, and who have shown little sign
of sanity.

the fact that such promises are but a
repetition of former ones that have
never been redeemed and therefore
panic has followed the boosted Repub-
lican prosperity. Of course, it cannot
be that these patriots are trying to
