MURDERED EXPERT HAD
MANY VALUABLE PAPERS

New York, March 1.-THE New
York police feel resentment that no
word regarding the murder of Lieu
tenant Joseph Petrosino in Palermo,
Sicily, had come from the Italian DO
lice although cable had been sent
them. Inspector McCafferty, head of
the detective service, said:
IF an Italian detective sent here on
mission by that government and
working in behalf of the Italian po-
lice had been murderd in New York
we would have notified the slain
mans department. / cabled Saturday
for information, but have received no
answer from Palermo"
The inspector said he was anxious
to know whether Petrosino had been
robbed after being shot. He intimat-
ed that Petrosino had some papers
valuable to the police here in running
down Black Hand and other Italian
offenders. The inspector said that
Petrosino had letters of instruction
from the department here. which, If
stolen by the murderers, would reveal
to the Italian criminals just what
plans the police of New York have
on foot.

PUBLISH ROBBERS
CONFESSION
STORY OF GREAT NORTHERN
TRAIN ROBBERY TO COME
OUT IN BOOK FORM.

Helena, Mont, March 14.-There is
being published in this city a story of
the confession of George Frankhauser,
the noted Great Northern train rob-
Der, who with his companion, effected
so sensational an escape from the
Lewis and Clark county Jail. The story
contains many interesting recitals of
incidents in connection with both
spectacular events, not a few of which
border on the sensational Particular
pains have been taken to verify the
chief items and this has been done
without the question of peradventure.
A modest figure is being asked for the
book, copies of which will be placed
on sale at the leading book stores of
this city within a few days. These es-
Establishments are to be indicated bv
large cards.
Frankhauser and Mcdonald in Sep
tember, 1907, held up and robbed the
Oriental Limited on the Great North
ern, near Rondo, Flathead county, and
stole $4,000 from the registered mail.
They were finally captured in Spokane
after having engaged in several months
of riotous living, and brought to this
city for trial. The day before this was
set, they escaped by saving through
three sets of bars. F'rankhauser was
re-captured tried, convicted and is
now serving a life sentence at the
Leavenworth prison. He prepared a
full and sworn statement covering the
affair and it is this publication which
is soon to be offered the public A
well-knoWn Helena newspaper man Is

something of a sensation cannot be
galnsald. The book is profusey illus

IRISH ARE PRAISED
BY HARVARD PRESIDENT |

Cambridge, Mass. March 14.-Jn a
telegram received today at Harvard
university from retiring President
Charles w. Eliot, who is now in At
lanta, Ga, he says recent remarks
made by him had been interpreted
as showing lack of appreciation Of
the civic and moral virtues of citi-
Zens sprung from Irish and other for
eign stocks"
President Eliot disclaims any such
intention, and adds:
Nobody familiar with the history
of Boston could fail to have deep ap-
probation of the influence which mil
lions of Irishmen have had in our de-
velopment. The progress of Irish vot-
ers toward liberation of all religion
and toward honest and efficient gov
ernment in towns and cities have been
more remarkable and much more rapid
during the past 20 years than that
of men of English blood who were
earlier comers."
