quires the secretary of state simply

These discrepancies are declared by

sufficient to change the result to a

Only the anvas of the vote by the
governor and council later can adjust
any discrepancies that may exist.

Rusby Held to Be Guiltless.

DR.. Rusby is held to be as guiltless
as DR.. Wiley in this particular mat
ter. A charge against him, however,
of securing the appointment on the
common "laborer's rolf of a physician
and expert whom he could use to do
his work at a very small stipend when
he himself was called away" the presi-
dent holds to be moi especially cred
table" The case, the president says,
has made. apparent the doubtful legis-
lative policy of placing limitations
upon bureau chiefs to exact per diem
compensation for experts"
THE government he says ought
not to be at a disadvantage in this
regard and one cannot withhold ones
sympathy with an earnest effort by DR..
Wiley to pay proper compensation and
secure expert assistance in the en-.
forcement of so important a statute
as the pure food law certainly in

ing under it are Of capital importance

ROBBERS GET $4,000
$4,000, too HEAVY TO CARRY,
LEFT BEHIND.
Biggest Hal in Forty Years Reported
From New Westminster,

New Westminster. British Columbia
The biggesthau in the history of
modern bank lobberies was made here
when five NAKED robbers blew the
safe of the brarnh of the Bank Of Mont
real and ESCAPED with $4,000 in gold
and bills. Besid,s this, they left $780,
600 in gold in tn, safe and On a couch
in the banking rsoms, because it was
too heavy for then to carry.
The robbers we've caught r~ed-handed
in their work by "a Chinese porter
when he went to tie bank to clean it
out shortly after ) I. m. He saw the
robbers at work in the safe. They
Immediately seized tie intruder, bound
and gagged him and proceeded with
their work. They blew the safe with
a charge of nitroglycerin, took what
exit. AS soon as he could get free
from his bonds, the Chnaman gave
the alarm and several posses took up
the pursuit of the bandits.
Explosion Not Heard.
The bank is next door to the police
station, but the explosion was not
heard, according to the night sergeant.
The local police have sent out a gen.
eral alarm to all the cities and towns
in British Columbia, but as yet have
no clue to the identity of the bandits
or their whereabouts.
Biggest Haul in Forty Years.
The robbery was the biggest cash
haul made by cracksmen in over forty
years. The only other robberies COM
pairing with it in the amount of loot
taken are two by what was known as
the Jimmy Hope gang" in April and
August, 1869. In April of that year
this gang robbed the Kensington Saw
ings bank Of Philadelphia of $180,O0O
in cash. In August the gang looted the
Ocean bank, New York, of 81, 900, 900
in cash and bonds. A few days later
the bonds were found. having been
thrown away by the cracksmen.

PRESIDENT TAFT APPROVES HIS
CONDUCT IN EVERY
DETAIL.
TROUBLE IN DEPARTMENT
Famous Pure Food Specials
is to Blame For lt-Rusby's
Employment Justified.

Beverly, Mass. The resignation
of DR.. Harvey w. Wiley, chief of the
bureau of chemistry in the department
of agriculture and probably the best
known pure food expert in the govern
ment service, will not be asked for by
President Taft, despite recommends
lions that it be requested made by
the personnel board of the department
and Endorsed by Attorney General
Wickersham.
The "condign punishment" for DR..
Wiley which Mr.. Wickersham held to
be necessary, will not be meted out
by the chief executive. The pTesi-
dents opinion, carrying no word Of
criticism for Dr.. Wiley but many a
word of praise, was made public here.
There is no indication in it that the
president feels that he turned down
Mr., Wickersham by not accepting his
recommendations. He explains that
the attorney generals finding in the
ease were made with less complete
data than was before him when he
took it up.

Admits Friction in Department.

In the opinion the president admits
persons close to the administration
that there is trouble in the department
of agriculture. Speaking of the on
~gressional inquiry into that depart
ment, unfinished at the last session
but to be taken up again next winter,
Mr.. Taft says:
The broader issues raised by the
investigation which have a much
weighter relation than this one to the
general efficiency of the department,
may require much more radical action
than the question | have considered
and decided"
That this statement indicates a seri-
Gus shake-up in the department next
winter was freely predicted here to-
day. There have never been any init
nations that Secretary Wilson vas dis
posed u retire and it is not believed
here that the president would request
him to do so. A general cleanup Of
affairs in the department, however,
could easily be required by the presi-
dent and carried through when he re-
turns to Washington in November.
The Wiley case arose owe the en-
ployment by the bureau of chemistry
of DR.. II. II. RuSby of New York,
pharmacognosist of the bureau. In
effect DR.. Wiley, DR.. l.. F. Kebler, chief
of the drug laboratory, and DR.. w. d.
Bigelow, assistant chief of the bureau,
we're charged with having conspired to
pay DR.. Rusby a salary of 81, 500 a year
with the taCit understanding that he
was to do only enough work to ecuTe
this amount at the rate of $40 a day.
This was held to violate the acts of
congress approved March Is, 1898,
which declared that no classified scien-
tific investigator should receive more
than 50 a day. In addition to the rec
ommendation that DR.. Wiley be al
lowed to resign, the personnel board
held that DR.. Rusby should be dis
missed, that Kebler be reduced and
that DR.. Bigelow be allowed to quit
the service. None of these recon-
~mendations is upheld in the presidents
opinion.
DR.. Kebler is reprimanded for dis
ingenious conduct" in his letter writ
ing to DR.. Rusty and the president
says that the letters suggest "a will
ingness to resort to evasion" that
calls for official reproof. DIR. Bigelow
is held to have been over jealous
and a reprimand by the secretary of
agriculture to whom the opinion, which
is in letter form, is directed, is ordered
by the president.
