UNEARTHED
Importers Were Robbed by Drivers Of
Transfer Wagons.

New York. July 22.-The arraign-
ment of four men before the United
States commissioner on charges or
theft has revealed a conspiracy to
steal valuable imported goods. which
has been in successful operation FOR
MANY months Importers in this city.
lcago and throughout the west have
complained that many thousands or
dollars worth of goods which they
purchased in Europe and which are in
voiced to them were not received by
them.
Investigation by secret service agents
indicated that the thefts were commit
ted after the packing cases containing
the shipments left the steamship here
and before they arrived at the APP
praisers' stores. The large majority
of complaints were concerning goods
which had been shipped on the Ger
man lines whose piers are in Hoboken:
Detectives followed number OF
suspects and the arrests were made
when they discovered the drivers OF
two wagons taking sixty-seven bolts OF
valuable dress goods from boxes on
their trucks while on the ferry boat
crossing the river. These drivers were
watched and the stolen goods trailed
to g. rendezvous in this city and there
two other arrests were made.
The customs officers say that by TINS
method many thousands of dollars
worth of imported goods have been
stolen in the last few months.

TAFT IS SATISFIED.
The President Is Pleased With Result
of the Dinner.

Washington, July 22-In discussing
today with various callers the results
of last nights tariff dinner at the White
House, President Taft expressed him
self as salts fed. He said with reference
to the placing of raw material on the
free list, especially hides. that his chief
interest lay in finding out what could
be done with reference to the manu-
featured products. Western senators
who are fighting the proposition to put
hides on the free list, are using their
best endeavors to have a change made
II the manufactured goods schedules to
offset any concession they may have to
make with regard &c the duty on hides.
President Taft called attention to the
fact that ne has been inadvertently mis-
represented as demanding free raw ma
terials all along the line. The presi-
dents position as outlined in his state
ment of Friday last was that he favor
ed an inquiry to find out what degree
o. protection, if any, was necessary
il. the matter of ore. hides, coal, etc.
The president has not committed him
self irretrievably to free hides, free coal.
free oil and free iron ore. The presi-
dent as a result of the stand he has
taken in the conference consideration
of the bill VIII win nearly all of the
wishes he has expressed and while
ne declined to discuss compromise
with any of his callers. it is quite like
ly the concessions which the conferees
will make will in the end prove salts
factory to the chief executive. The
president laughingly said the tariff
promised to be an '+al1 summer job.
An effort was made at last nights
dinner to have President Taft agree to-
a two years limitation of the corpor-
alton tax He declined to do so.
Representative Dwight. the Republi-
can whip of the house. reported to the
president the organization of d new
group of anti-free raw material men
in the house. This group is headed by
Representative Gaines. West Virginia,
who was one of the immortal 49, who
visited the White House last week and
drew out the presidents positive state
ment of his position.

FOUR INDICTED.
Miller, Mrs. Sayler and Grunden Held
for the Sayler Murder.

Watseka. Ill. July 22.-The special
grand jury called to investigate the
murder of John B. Sayler, at Cres-
cent City. on July Il, has indicted
DR.. VIM Miller, Mrs. J. B. Sayler and
John Grunden on a charge of muir
der Ira Grunden was indicted as an
accessory after the fact. 1t is
thought a special term of court win
be called to try the cases in which
event it is probable a motion will be
made for a change of venue to an
other county.
There were only a few persons in
the court room when the grand jury
filed in, but when the jury reported
it's deliberations and finding, there
was a murmur of applause from the
few spectators.
1t is stated that each of the de-
PENDANTS will plead not guilty.
It is regarded as certain that the
defense will make a motion for a
change of venue to some county far
removed from Iroquois.

Almost Drowned.

eo N Wesr or GrK dqiy w. st+ nau1

from that city to the Thousand Islands
via New York, met with a thrilling
accident late last night on the Hudson
river opposite Hastings and was
rescued after desperate struggle.
He had padded his canoe all the
way from Boston, through Long Island
sound, the Harlem river and into the
Hudson and was speeding up that
river in an effort to capture a prize
offered by the Boston Canoe club.
when his craft was struck by a gust
of wind and overturned. He held to
the bottom of the boat and fought the
current for a half hour before his
cries were heard and he was rescued

BIG SHIPMENT OF GOLD.
Steamer VIII Garry 'Ss.OOO,OOO to
South American Ports.

New York. July 22.-Mechanics Iabored
all night reinforcing the strong room on
beard the steamer Verdi which sails to-
day with $s.OO0,0O0 in gold for the banks in
Buenos Ayres and for the Argentine re-
public. While no piratical crews are
known to be FLYING the black fIas on the
Spanish Main at this time, the shippers of
the treasure are not taking any chances.
Rbieh tb oe od VIII he sean9 dnria IN
entire voyage, there will be several
heavily armed guards on watch continu-
ously.
This is tire heaviest single shipment Of
gold which has ever been made to South
America The fact that Buenos Ayres
can banks since the first of the year has
led to speculation that perhaps the South
American republic was preparing for any
military emergency which might be pre-
SeQted.

ing 50 per cent of the ready-made
clothing manufacturers of the country
called on President Taft to explain
their position. They declared the
wool dealers had been forming COM
bination during the last few years and
on the quality of wool used in the
cheaper grades of clothes-'the poor
mans raiment''-as they expressed it.
In order TO prevent this increase it
was asserted that reductions in the
Dingley bill rates we're necessary.
The delegation told the president
that unless a change could be made
in the wooden schedule, even at this
late day, a storm of protest would

COPE FINED THE MINIMUM.
Sold Berries in Boxes Which Contain
ed Less That a Quart.

Frank Cope, commission mer-
chant, pleaded guilty this morning
to charge in the court OF Iopeka
of selling berries in boxes measuring
less than a dry quart without stating
to the purchaser that he was not get
ting full measure.
Two counts were charged against
Cope. the first was for violation of
the Transportation rules of the
state board of health. This count
was dismissed after Judge Simon had
ruled that section of the rules in
valid in his decision in the Anderson
and Armstrong case. The second
count, however, came under the
weights and measures act of 1909
which provides that berry boxes shall
be of either dry pint or dry quart
measurement. That the boxes he
sold were of a size somewhere be-
tween the two but sold for quarts,
Mr.. Cope admitted. Upon the re-
commentator of the county attor-
ney, Judge Simon fined the defendant
the minimum, SIS and costs.

NO Cash FOR AIRSHIP.
Spirit of Economy Forbids Asking for
an Appropriation.

Washington, July 22.-The United
States is not likely to make great
progress in aerial navigation during the
next fiscal year as result of an en-
couragement offered inventors by con-
gress. The spirit of economy in gov
ernmental affairs is now so pronounced
as to discourage even the asking for
funds by the war department for the
purchase of any class of afrships.
Last year General Allen. chief signal
officer, advocated an appropriation of
half million dollars for experimental
work and ne succeeded in not only hav-
ing that estimate sent to congress by
the war department. but in having it
favorably acted on by the committee of
the house only to meet defeat before the
appropriation bill was passed by the
house itself This year there is such
close pairing of all estimates that it is
rot likely any money will even be ask
ed for this purpose. The board of ord
nance of the army has now $4,000 for
airship experiments. $4,000 to be paid to
the Wright brothers if they succeed in
making a. fight of ten miles at the rate
OF Sc miles an hour, carrying one per-
son besides the operator and $50, 600 to
\. NJ Herring. if he meets practically
similar requirements

PRISONERS BREAK JAIL.
All Recaptured But Not Until One
Was Slightly Wounded.

Syracuse. Kan, July 22.-Two Mex
leans and one white man of the five
prisoners confined in the county Jail
here. made a dash for liberty after
tearing a hole through the Jail walls.
Escaping from the city unobserved,
the trio headed for the brakes
northeast of town. Two prisoners,
who did not try to escape, notified a
passerby of their escape an hour later.
On being informed of the jail deliv-
cry, Sheriff McCarter aided by depu-
ties and citizens started in pursuit A
posse led by County Treasurer Jim
Pratt was soon on the trail and sur
rounded the unarmed men about nine
miles northeast of town. The Mexi-
cans at once surrendered. but the
white man, who was in for shooting at
Conductor B. c. Jones, became desper-
ate and would not give in until per
suaded by a shot through the leg by
Jim Pratt's revolver. BY noon the
three were all back in their cells at
the county jail.
