BANK is LOOTED
OF SMALL FORTUNE
Safe Crackers Make Way With
S3I5,OOO In Gold and Bills.

New Westminster, B. C,Sept. 1G.--
The biggest haul" in the history OF
modern bank robberies was made
here when three masked cracksmen
blew the safe of the Bank of Mon
treal and escaped with $4,000 in
gold and bills. Besides this sum they
left 100000 in gold in the safe and
on a couch in the banking room be-
cause II was too heavy for them to
carry.
A Chinese porter went to the bank
to scrub shortly after 5 o'clock lie
found the robbers at work on the
safe. They seized the intruder, bound
and gagged him. tied him to a chaiI
and proceeded with their work. As
soon as he could get free from nj.
bonds the Chinaman gave the alarm
and several posses took up the pur
suit of the bandits.
The men were evidently exper
cracksmen and the job was neatl,
done. The bank officials think the.
must have had some pal" IN New

DEFEATS
OKLAHOMA GIANT
Carl Morris 0utclaSSed By
Pueblo Scrapper.
NOT WHITE MANN HOPE

Although Six Inches Taller and Fifty
Pounds Heavier, He Was Practl-
calIy Slaughtered In Ring at Madl-
son Square Garden-Nose Broken,
Eyes Shut and Head SwelIed to
Size Of Pumpkin by Terrific Blows
Of the Fireman.
New York. Sept. 16.--Carl Morris
the Oklahoma giant, is not a real
white mans hope" and will not be
the man to win back the heavy
weight crown from Jack Johnson, the
worlds champion.
In Madison Square Garden, Morris
received a terrific beating in 10
rounds from Fireman Jim Flynn of
Pueblo Colo, and had it not been
for Morris wonderful pluck there is
no doubt that he would have been
put to sleep. Although Morris was
nearly six inches taller and weighed
90 pounds more, he was practically
slaughtered Both of his eyes were
closed, his nose was broken, his lips
were slashed and he received so
many blows on the right side of the
head that it swelled to the size of a
small pumpkin.
From the moment the men put up
their hands 1t was clear that Morris
knew nothing of the art Of self-de.
fense. lie was just a big, strong
willing fellow who thought he could
beat his rival with superior weight
and harder punches. But when
Flynn began rushing him, at the
same time punching his body with
short hooks and uppercuts in the
face with heavy drives, Morris lost
his bearings and presented a sorry
spectacle. He received smashes I'm
the face that fairly blinded him and
swings on the jaw that rocked him
to the heels. yet Flynn, trying his
best, could not score knockout.
Morris blows soon became weak
and ineffective. He punched Flynn
whenever he had the chance but the
necessary steam was lacking and
barring a swollen left optic. the Pue
bio man escaped without serious
bruises.

Spring Lake, N. j., Sept. 1G.-Gov-
crnor Harmon of Ohio will argue the
case of the states against federal
judges when the committee named
by the house of governors here ap-
pears before the supreme court OF
the United States to appeal for the
overthrow OF the dictum that a state
legislature maynot regulate intrastate
railroad rates. The members of the
governors conference were practical
ly unanimous in settling upon Har-
mon as the champion of states
rights.
Before the fourth annual confer

Va, on Dec. 3, 1912, the states rights
committee, after short session, is
sued statement defining their atti-
nors on the action taken. Judge Har-
mon and Governor Hadley OF Mis-

reads:
"In view of an apparent misundei'
