POLICE ROB STORES
YOUNG BOY MAKES A STARTLING
 CONFESSION.
He Was Arrested for Larceny and on Examination Implicated Four
 Policemen. Who Are
 Later Arrested.

Philadelphia, April 4.--An interest ing story of alleged dishonesty in the police department of this city was told today by Harry Rothenberger, aged 1s years who was arrested, charged with larceny.
 The youth, who says his home :s in Reading. Pao made a confession to the superintendent of police fin which he says he was aided and abetted in number of robberies In the wholesale district of the city by four policement. These policemen, John Kelly. c. 1T. Luckenbill. Albert R. Sithens and John w. Straub, were arrested and probably will be given a hearing tomorrow. Kelly was arrested in uniform while patroling his beat. and the others were taken into custody at their homes. The dwellings of two of the accused police men were searched by detectives. and, 1t is asserted, goods alleged to have been stolen were recovered.
 In the confession. Rothenberger says he was the tool of the policemen who made .t easy for him to commit rob- berries. Roehenberger declares that the robberies began about last Thanksgiv- ing day and continued almost nightly until Christmas.
 Most of the time" he says. "I would meet the policemen in front of the places and they would let me Yin the front doors. One of tn em would stand watch outside while I got the stuff and I would carry it out of the build ing to a push cart and take 1t away"
 metimes," the youth confessed. "the policemen would come inside the stores with me and some times they would tip me off to a factory or an office. where we could get in by climb ing fire escapes.
 The accused policemen were attached to one of the most important districts of Philadelphia.
 Ii was announced late tonight that two of the policemen had made con- fession of their complicity in the rob berries. While admitting their guilt, they d.d not incriminate the other po- licemen.

HEAVY HAUL
 IN EUFAULA Postoffice is Robbed of
 $2,800. THE SAFE IS BLOWN OPEN Explosion Aroused Citizens, But
 Thieves Escape. Postmaster Russell Also Lost Valuable Property-Four Suspicious Look ing Men Were Seen Leaving
 The Place.
HE SAFE IS BLOWN OPEN

Eufaula, April 4---(SpeciaD-A band of burglars blew open the post oftice safe here early this mornig and secured in cash $700 and $2.100 in stamps. Postmaster Russell also misses num- Der of cotton receipts and some valu- able papers.
 The burglars gained an entrance to the building by boring hole about four inches square just above the cross bar which, together with the lock, secured it, and in this way easily ,opened it.
 The safe, together with the entire post office fixtures were inspected by the officials on March IS. and a lease was secured on the building for a period of years. It was pronounced bulglar proof and was secured by two doors and a vault all of which were provided with combination locks.
 Four explosions were necessary be- fore the vault was entered and these were distinctly heard by citizens sey- eraI blocks away. Many of those in closer proximity were aroused and rushed to their doors to ascertain the trouble. A few, believing that some thing was wrong, seized their pistols. but did not have occasion to use them. The first shot was heard about 2 o'clock this morning and there was an inter- mission of ten to fifteen minutes.
 An examination disclosed that the burglars did not drill holes in the safe and 1t is thought they used nitro glycerlne. injecting 1t in the crack at the top or side and either igniting 1t by a fuse or from 8 jar made by strik- ing 1t heavily with a hammer. There is no indication that hole was drill ed in either of the doors and no other theory has been given.
 The blacksmith shop of Faulk & Son on Eufaula Street. was entered. sup posedIy by the thieves, as a brace and bit and other tools were missing from 1t this morning. It is believed these tools were used in opening the back door of the building.
 J. ". Hortrnan. prominent citizen, who resides within a hundred yards of the poStoffice. was aroused, and states that he was standing on his, front porch when he saw four men pass his sidewalk soon after the ex- prosion. going rapidly in couples and in a stooping position. The police. two of whom were on duty, arrived too late 10 accomplish anything.
 Every indication is that 1t was the work of experts at the business and every precaution has been taken to overtake them, but up to this hour nothing has developed.
 Hundreds of 'citizens crowded the office this morning. viewing the wreck and expressing opinions.

UGLY CHARGES MADE
NEBRAsKA POPS SAY HEARST
 BOUGHT CONVENTION.
The Delegation That Bolfed St. Louis Convention Give Out Statement To The Public And Explain
 Their Action.

Omaha, Neb., April 4.--The Nebras- kan delegation which bolted the Popu- list National Convention in St. Louis arrived home today and issued a statement to the press in explanation of their action.
 They declare that the old time Pop ulists for the most part were absent from the convention and that the inan- agement of the gathering showed a total disregard for parliamentary us- age and the rights of the accredited delegates The statement charges that when the national committee meeting was held. the caEnfaff feeen1en from @fisesa States from which PopulisH had become a serious threat to corporation control" were not notified and the apportionment of delegates was made so as to give control of the convention to the delegates from States, many of which never cast q Populist vote.
 Says the statement:
 We believe that the whole thing was financed (and they semed to have plenty of money). by the men or man who has organized what is known as the Independent League, hoping there by to effect the downfall of both Bryan and Watson"
 Incidents are citled of what are termed comic opera proceedings" and the delegates say that when they real ized the fraudulent character of the meeting" they withdrew. The state ment closed with the claim that the State of Nebraska has the only legal ly constituted peoples party in the United States. and the announcement that when a convention properly called and composed of legally selected dele gates is held, they are ready to take r,a If

DEMOCRATS IN PHILIPPINES

Manila. April 4.-The Democratic convention in the Philippines defeated a resolution condemning the Taft ad- ministrat.on of the island by one vote. The convention endorsed Bryan for President and adopted resolution de- manding tariff reform. Six delegates were elected to the National Democratic Convention.
 The adoption of the insular plat form almost caused a split in the party. One faction presented a series of radi- cal resolutions condemning specific acts of the Government and condemn Ing the failure of Secretary Taft to secure a tariff reform as well s acts of the administration while he was Governor. The other faction declined to discuss local political conditions. ex- cept as to the tariff and need of con-

Peking. April 4-There has come sudden realization of and awakening to the possibilities of the political posi- tion of the United States in the mat fer of Russia and Japan anu the sovereignty of Manchuria
 This situation has arisen as a result of tbe organization and its activity TOT twelve months past Of the Americah II snec,aI consular service. The situation has been precipitated by two things: First. the refusal of Fred D. flsher' the American Consul at Haroln 10 recognize the Russian aohllhlstI d 'toh of tbat territory and his support or the C,binese protest against the establish ment by Russia of municipalities in the railroad Zone at Harbin and Challar ln- denendent of the Chinese government and second by the reconsideration or su Manchurian questions which nave been inaugurated recently at feklhs, The throne fears that Japan IS apout to nromulgate ordinances along the line of the Russian decree. making 1drpI' an independent municipality, for the nurpose of converting all Japanese communities in Manchuria into self governing bodies, and 1t has con seonentIy summoned Tang Sinai Va. the Governor of Mukden province and the chief of the Manchurian administrator to Picking for the purpose or disposing of all Manchurian qutstlohs iH |" Ne'S gorical manner.
 Russia and Japan, it is declared here are of the opinion that China never would have been aware of the strength of her diplomatic position in Manchuria' and especially at Harbin. where Japan supports Russia, had it not been for the interference of the consular repre- sentatives of the United States. Last November, Russia intimated that Mir. Fisher was responsible for the atti- tude of China; and today 1t Is declared in Peking that she regards the United States as responsible for the present complication over the Harbin munich pality.

 One after another they aross and verbally offered amendments. Mir. Dal- zell, (Pa.), who occupied the chair, sn- nounced his purpose not to entertain any amendments not in writing.
 Immediately MT. Mann. tIlls), arose with pro forma amendment to strike out the last word. The Democrats to a man demanded that he be required to put the amendment in writing, where upon MT. Dalzel curtly notified them he could use his own discretion as to that. Mir. Mann then moved to close the debate on the paragraph. but the democrats exhausted all their. parlia- mentary rights before the motion was carried.
 The Democrats sent up their amend ments in writing. Some of them struck out a few words. while others a whole clause. They were all voted down. Finally. Mir. Gardner, tMich.), made the point of order against the last amend ment onereus remarklng that It was evident that the Republicans had a clear majority present and the amend ment was diliatory.

 By a subterfuge. Mfr. Sulzer got the floor and commenced to denounce the "gag rule" when he was shut off by Mir. Dalzell on a point of order by Mir. Vreeland. (N. Y.) The Democrats took another tack. and availing themselves of their right to make pro forma amendments to ask explanations. one after another got up and caused Mir Gardner to reply. thereby consuming much time.
 They also forced repeated divisions of the House and votes by teiiers. Throughout the remainder of the day little or no obstr rLction to the District bill was offered. When it was finally laid aside, considerable progress had been made in its considering. Follow ing a roll call on adjournment, which was forced by the Democrats, the House, at 5:36 p. m.. adjourned until Monday.

Cornelius Bliss Gives Out Interview
 on Campaign Contribution.

Bliss, Treasurer of the Republican Ma tional Committee, said today that SO far as the Republican party is con cerned no contribution of S500,00O was made to a campaign fund by the Metro politan Street Railway Company in 1900.
 Mir. Bliss's statement was brought forth by the publication of the report ed contents of a presentment soon to he made by the New York County grand jury based upon evidence given before that body by Thomas F. Ryan.
