100000 ROBBERY
IN new YORK BANK
AGED MAN VICTIM OF CROOKS ON
PRODUCE EXCHANGE.
Broker Deposited Envelope Which
Contained Nothing But Old
Newspapers.

New York.-What appears to have
been one of the boldest, safest and
successful robberies in the history OF
the finacial district was developed
Tuesday when Aaron Bancroft, the
Oldest active broker in New York,
made the discovery that he had been
tricked out OF nearly 100000 worth
Of securities last Thursday afternoon
in the basement vaults OF the Produce
Exchange building.
According to the excited statement
of old Mr.. Bancroft-he has passed his
Saith birthday and is physically feeble
"a young man knocked him down,
seemingly by accident, in a narrow
hallway as he was on his way to the
safety deposit box of his firm, Ban
croft & Co., to lock up a paper wallet
containing them.
Last Thursday Mr.. Bancroft, as has
been his habit for twenty-five years,
placed securities worth about $780,.
600 in a large envelope bearing the
firms name in the corner. Alone, he
walked the 200 feet from his office to
the Produce Exchange, thence down
a flight of steps from the street level
entrance to the vaults.
Just as Mr.. Bancroft was about to
turn the corner at the end Of the
corridor into the vaults a tall man
came running around the corner and
collided with him. The shock threw
Mr.. Bancroft off his feet. and in fall
Ing he dropped the envelope.
That was the cue for an under.
sized young man, who had been lean
ing against the corridor wall. He
stepped up to Mr.. Bancroft, assisted
him to his feet and was solicitous to
tuck under his arm an envelope. Mr..
Bancroft, of course, thought it was the
envelope that fell. He went on to de-
post it in his box as usual.
Tuesday. when George Bancroft, his
son, unlocked the box, he found that
the only envelope there contained
three old newspapers. A clever sub
stitution had been effected when the
elder Bancroft was upset in the vault
corridor.

Washington.-Mr. Lorimer retains
his seat in the United States senate.
BY a vote of 46 to 40 that body
Wednesday defeated the resolution
introduced by Senator Beverage, de-
claring that the junior senator from
Illinois had not legally been elected.
The end of the case which for many
months had been before the senate
and had provoked mi of the most Bit
ter fights in that body for years.
fight in which the personal equation
served to heigEten and intensity the
feeling-came shortly after 1880
o'clock. Promptly at that hour the
IL e.president brought his gavel down
shat ply upon his desk and called for
a vote on the resolution. The agree
ment entered into by the members
called for he shutting OF OF all debate
at that hour and the settlement Of
the issue by a vote.
Senator LaFollette had the floor at
the time and the rap of the gavel
forced him to an abrupt termination
of his a~nti-Lorimer speech. The
ayes and nays were sounded and the
crowded floor and galleries followed
the roll call with interest most in
tense.
Upon the conclusion of the roll call
and the announcement OF the result
applause was heard from the galleries,
while on the floor Senator Lorimes's
friends fastened to tender their con-
gr~atulations.

to the extraordinary episodes sur
rounding the adjournment of the
Sixty-irst congress by resigning his
office as senator from the state OF
Texas and a few hours later with

Mr.. Bailey wrote his resignation

Many of the Democratic and Repub-

those who talked with him urged him
to consider his action. A number of
senators sent kilograms to Gov Col

most disastrous fires this city has
ever known destroyed the syndicate
block, at a loss estimated at $1,0O0,,

were lost. Twelve persons were res

The members of the Franson fami.

for the fire escape. Elmer Franson
leaped to the fire escape through a
blast Of flames. Holding to the hot
irons of the latter, he then aided his
mother to climb through the window
and step upon the platform beside
him.
AS soon as her hands touched the
rails Mrs. Franson uttered a shrek
and would have fallen to the ground

which adjoins the Syndicate building.
Caldwell made a leap of almost EN-
