New Westminster, b. c., Sept. 10
Three robbers who took $315.O00 early
today from the Bank of Montreal's
local branch, and thereby perpetrated
the largest successful safe blowing
record in America. are believed to be
hiding tonight in Vancouver, B. c..
with small chance of disposing OF
their booty undetected.
Bank officials assert that all the
bills taken were new and mostly of
large denomination and that their
serial numbers are recorded at the
bank. The gold taken cannot be
traced so directly.
Besides timing the robbery to match
the vacation of the night watchman.
1t developed today that the trio Sc
lected a time when the banks cash
supply was far above the normal. for
the financing Of salmon shipments Of
the coming season now closing.
The burglars entered the bank by
the front door. broke through the thin
metal coating of the vault. blew the
safe by charges of nitro -glycerine and
got clear away with their booty with
out being seen except by Chinese
caretakcr. They probably escaped
down the Frazer river by launch or
else by automobile toward Vancouver.
Heaps Of Money.
There was in all sa5o,ooO in the
bank safes. Chief of Police Brad
shaw believes the men would have
taken It all II they could have carried
II. AS 1t was. they took all they
could carry away. leaving all TIE sill
YER and notes OF small denominations
as well as damaged $500 and $40 bills
lying around the floor and tables OF
the room of one of the clerks.
The first known OF the robbery
was when Chinese caretaker ap-
peared at the police station at about
$3.50 O'clock and gave the alarm. He
had managed to work his bonds loose
after the robbers had departed. Chief
OF Police Bradshaw hurried to the
scene and all Of the available officers
were pressed into service, but the
only clue obtainable was that given by
the Chinaman.
From the thoroughncss OF the job
ana the tOoiS Win Whlch the WORK
was done, the local officers believe the
same gang that has recently been at
work In Vancouver turned the trick
here. 1t In impossible to say just
when the men effected their entrance
into the bank. but It. Is presumed that
It was somewhere about o'clock this
morning. for when the chinese janitor
arrived shortly after o'clock to
clean up, he found that three men
had been doing a little cleaning up
on their own account. and before the
Chinaman could give the alarm he
was gagged and tied to post In the
basement Then the robbers proceeded
to collect the gold and bills from the
vault and left the building some time
before o'clock. taking fully quar-
ter OF a million with them. leaving
about 100000 in the vault behind
them.
Still in Vicinity.
That the robbers are still In the
vicinity Is apparent by the finding
Of powerful automobile stolen from
T. J. TrappS garage, broken down In
Front of the Y. NJ. c. A. building. 1t

Mr.. Taft says:
"The broader issues raised by the

That this statement indicates q seri-

disposed to retire and It is not believed
here that the president would request

Jews MAY Rise.

ST. Petersburg, Sept 15.-Though the
temper Of the population In the south
ern cities Is disquieting, no hint of an
actual outbreak against the Jews has
yet reached st. Petersburg In due form.
The Reich, which has close relations
with Jewish circles throughout Russia,
thus far has received no report OF dis
orders. but II Is reported from other
sources that group of students from
the kiev university today made a hos
tile demonstration in front Of the resi-
dence of Attorney Bogroff, father of
M. Stolypin's assailant.
There have been startling develop
ments In the inquiry into the shooting
of M. Stolypin. The inquiry has deter
mined that the crime was Of revolu-
ttonary origin and carried out by an
agent of the protective political police
especially stationed In the theater to
guard M. Stolypin.
1t Is declared that this first attempt
at revival of terrorism was planned
by the executive committee of the Jew
ish band of social revoMtionists and
Finnish reyolutionists, who, according
to police information. recently feder-
ated. The rapid progress OF the in
quiry was due to the eagerness Of the
municipality to clear itself of a charge
of reckless distribution OF admission
cards to the theater.
Admission card No. 406 was found on
Bogroff. 1t was issued by the munich
pality OH personal request signed by
Inspector of Political Police Kuliabkc
and by him handed over to the agent
OF Bogroff. The municipality had taken

PrRslnrENcE-

Colonel Edward H. r. Green, son
of Mrs. Hetty Green, said, in an in
terview at the Waldorf-Astoria, that,
while the begging letter writer and
gold mine agent did not really bother
him much, these men were neverthe-
less very persistent-as persistent, in
fact, as the screw-driver salesman.
Colonel Green smiled.
THAT salesman" he said, "entered
the office Of one of my friends in Chi
cago and announced that he had a
very fine screw driver for sale.
I've no use for screw driver

Not now, perhaps said the sales
man, but how about your skates next
winter? You forget that they must

men who wouldn't buy a screw driver
unless it had a photograph, flying
machine and steam yacht attached
He dashed out, slamming the door
behind him. My friend gave a sigh OF
relief. But the next moment he stuck
his head in at the door again and
snapped,

The speaker was an eX consul to

He resumed:
"The Chinese reverence for their

ludicrous. A Chinaman, no matter
what his age or rank may be, yields
absolute submission to his father and
