Mr.. Jones, who is president of the
Jones Brothers Dry Goods Company
He was shown into the library. Mr.
Jones, upon entering the library, was

that unless Mr.. Jones gave him $1,000
he would Immediately blow up both.
In an endeavor to calm the man
Mr.. Jones talked with him over half
an hour. Mrs. Jones, feeling appre-
hensiye on account of her. husbands

Berlin, Germany.-The newest de-
generacy, displayed in unprovoked
and cruel attacks upon virtuous and
unoffensive women, continues to man
ifest itself here.
Over twenty-five such outrages
have been committed. There seems
to be more than one decadent, such
as Jack" this and Jack" that, who
committed wanton and ineXplicable
assaults against women in other capt.
tails, without taking booty; without
seeking, apparently, anything but the
qualification of semi-maniacal i'm
pulse.
Five attacks made upon women in
the eastern suburbs brought the days
total up to seven and the aggregate
to twenty-five since the beginning OF
these vicious assaults
One woman was seriously wound
ed. The others injuries were slight.
1t seems enough for their assailants
to cause them to suffer pain.
Many persons, most of them wom-
en-, declare they have seen the mys-
terious assailant, but, as he turned to
the injured woman, he escaped. The
description of these witnesses agree
to a certain extent So the police
might theorize that one man is gull
ty of all the attacks. But many wit
nesses swear that three men simulta-
neously attacked one girl, a servant,
in the street. One with a sharp
knife stabbed her in the abdomen,
then the three ran away without even
attempting to take the bundles or the
purse the girl carried.
The police have doubled the pa
strol in the streets, and are watching
particularly women of whatever char
acter who walk out, unaccompanied,
day or night.
A merchants wife, staid woman
of irreproachable character, was
walking in a street in the southern
part of the city She had not the
slightest warning from her assailant,
who approached her from behind,
laced her and struck at her with a
knife. The hand she raised in de-
Tense was wounded and then the man
stabbed her in the thigh and fed.
Five women of the working class
were wounded in the city and in the
suburbs, two were seriously hurt.
The first attack occurred in the Mo-
abite quarter at 9 O'Clock in the
morning in the open street. The as
sailant stabbed his victim in the up
per arm. Another woman was
wounded in the thigh during the fore
noon in the northern section of the
sity. A girl was attacked at p. m.
In the eastern section. She warded
pff the blow with her hand, which
was wounded.
In the evening one of these deca-
dents attacked butchers wife in the

REPORT ON PANAMA
IS SENT TO CONGRESS.
Attack on Lock Type lmpedes
Building Any Canal.
PLANS AND WORK APPROVED
Engineers Estimate Canal Cost at
$500, 1000. OOO--Roosevelt Lowers
Gatun Dam Twenty Feet--He
Saws 1t Was Needlessly Strong.

Washington, D. C.-In his speclal
message to Congress, accompanying
the report of the engineers VINO re-
Gently visited the Panama Canal IN
company with President-elect Tart,
President Roosevelt threw down the
gauntlet to those Senators who
threaten to reopen the entire canal
question and advocate the digging OF
a sea-leyel ditch. The President de-
clared that any criticism on the pres
emit lock plan is really an attack on
the policy of building any canal at
ALL" He added that any change III
the system would be ian inexcusaDle
folly.n The recommendation of the
engineers unequivocally indorses the
lock canal 1t disposes OF all the
rumors as to the stability OF the
Gatun dam by declaring that struc-
ture to be entirely safe and capable
of withstanding all strains to Wnlch
1t may be exposed. The engineers
estimate that the complete cost OF the
canal will aggregate $3.50, 900.
The Presidents message touches
on all these points and then excorl-
ates those who have ventured to ex-
press their belief that sea-level
canal is the only feasible system. The
leader of these critics is Senator Kit.
tredge, chairman of the Committee
on Interoceanic Canals. Senator For
aker also is allied with Mr.. Kittridge,
and it is declared that the only rea-'
son why vigorous fight has not been
undertaken by these two Senators is
found in the fact that both retire
from public life March 4 and the
congested condition of legislation In
Congress at the present time pre-
Guides any consideration of the ques-
ton before that date
II commend to YOU" he says to
Congress, "the most careful consider.
alton of the report. The engineers
show that the only criticism which
can be made of the work on the
Isthmus is that there has sometimes
been almost an excess of caution in
providing against possible trouble.
AS to the Gatun dam itself, they
show that not only is the dam safe.
but that on the whole the plan al
ready adopted would make it need
lessly high and strong, and accord
ingly they recommend that the height
be reduced by twenty feet, which
change in the plans have accord
ingly directed.
The engineers report that, as the
Gatun earth dam was the central
point of discussion, they gave it, I'M
der instructions from Mr.. Taft, first
consideration in the light of all new
evidence" and they add that "the
type of dam now under construction
is one which meets with their "unan-
imous approval" They say they, are
satisfied that there will be no dan
gerous or Objectionable seepage
through the materials under the base
of the dam, nor are these materials
so soft as to be liable to be pushed
aside by the weight of the proposed
dam so as to cause dangerous settle
ment. We are also satisfied that the
materials available which it is pro-
posed to use are suitable and can be
readily placed to form tight, stable
and permanent dam. "s~-9

Fears Parents wrath.

James Frisby, young negro, Of
Woodbury., whom Joseph Janku ac-
cused of attempting to assault his lit
tie daughter Marie, appealed to Mayor
Ladd for protection from the infuri-
ated parents of the girl. Frisby was
released from jail because the charge
could not be substantiated. He told
the Mayor that the mother ran at
him with knife, and that the father
had been watching for him with a
gun. When the mother attacked him
soon after his release, Frisby said
that only telephone pole protected
him from stabbing. He was afraid
to go. out, as was also his brother
Hover, who was arrested, but imme-
diately released upon a similar
charge.
