LATER BULLETINS REAssURING.
During the Night There Was Grave
Alarm Concerning Mikado.

Toxic, July 25.--The official bulletin
issued at six o'clock this morning on the
condition of the emperor was more re-
assuring than that issued at eleven the
previous night. This mornings bulletin
gave the temperature of the emperor as
9S.7 pulse, l04; respiration, 80. Last
nights bulletin read Temperature
1904; pulse over 100, irregular; patient
increasingly fatigued."
The physicians remained at the bedside
throughout the night, as conditions were
considered unfavorable. A minister OF
the household said this morning how
ever, that the emperor had slept fairly
well. The acceleration of the pulse is
regarded as serious, but not critical.
The eleven o'clock bulletin created
alarm and the princes were summoned
to the palace at two o'clock in the morn
ing. The newspapers delayed issuance un-
til after six o'clock when assurances
were given of pronounced imrove-
ment. The attending physicians do not
explain the cause of the accelerated
pulse, but are hopeful because the tenn
perature remains close to normal.
The crown prince visited the emperor
yesterday, the meeting being described
as affecting. His majesty. however, was
smiling. He showed great weakness but
his mind was in no way clouded.
Great crowds of people gather outside
the palace walls. For the first time in
history the general public has been ad-
mitted, subject to approval, to the palace
grounds in order to express coincidence.

The money was stolen from the money
drawer of the store, when Poulas was
out on the sidewalk Poulas, az soon
as he learned OF the theft, offered -
for the return Of the money and il was
not long before Coyillon appeared with
the entire amount and claimed the re.
ward. This aroused suspicion, and upon
being notified the police quickly connect
ed the boy with the robbery and arrested
him yesterday afternoon. II was ascer-
tanned that the boy had concealed the
money in garden Immediately upon
stealing it and had dug it up to get
the reward.
In the hearing which followed before
acting City Judge j. p. Ladd. Covillon
pleaded not guilty, but the evidence was
strongly against him, and he was con
victed. The police also learned that the
boy had recently stolen $40 from his
father.
This is the fifth arrest OF minors ma ic
during the past week for larceny. The
others were two Martin boys, and two
by the name of Lavoie and Douglass

der are Baked
AND NO new ARRESTS MADE

Police Commissioner Dougherty Believe
That "Bald Jack" Rose Was the
Managing Mind Behind the Plot.

New York, July 25. Efforts to discov'
er the identity of the men who plotted
the death of Herman Rosenthal are
baked for the time being by the failure
of the police to round up the gang who
murdered the gambler. Nine days have
elapsed since Rosenthal was slain and
with the exception of Harry Vallon. who
surrendered, no3 one of the passengers
in the gray automobile have been
brought to police headquarters.
District Attorney Whitman is giving
his undivided attention to unrayelling
the tangled threads of the evidence and
with him is working Deputy Police COM
missioner Dougherty. Whitman and
Dougherty believe that Bald Jack" Rose
was the managing mind behind the muir
der plot. Rose believes the police sys-
tenn" will protect him and SO he halts
at turning informant.
Mr.. Whitman said that he had not
yet received an answer to his letters re-
questing the three detective leutenants,
Becker, Riley and Costigan, to appear as
voluntary witnesses before the grand
jury.
"If Lieutenant Becker comes said Mr..
Whitman, II will ask him if he had a
conversation over the telephone with
Jack Rose on the night of the shooting
and may say that the telephone com
pany will furnish us with the calls from
Webber's or the Lafayette barns on the
night in question without our issuing a
subpoena
Mr.. Whitman announced that process
server had gone to New Haven and had
reported that Mrs. Sherman, who is
said to have been dining in the Metro
pole with Detective File and two other
friends just as the shooting took plase
in front of the hotel, would come to

DEMOCRATS STAND PAT.
Won't Recede From Their "No Battle
ship" Program.

Washington, D. c., July 25.-Demo-
crafts of the House in caucus last night
voted, 20 to 81, not to recede from their
tno battleship" program in the naval APP
preparation bill. A determined effort
was made to have the caucus approve a
compromise with the Senate whereby the
House would agree to the construction
of one sea fighter. Representative Fitz-
gerald, chairman of the appropriation
committee, led the opposition to the pro-
posal on the ground of economy.
The action of the caucus further com.
plicates the adjournment plans of the
leaders of both the Senate and House.
The naval appropriation bill is in con-
ference and last nights caucus was or
dered in an effort to break deadlock
that has prevailed for some time with
no apparent chance that it would be bro
ken. The Senate committed to two
battleship building program was will
ing to compromise on one vessel this
year. 1t has expressed its determination
not to recede further.

New System of Sending Wireless Mes
sages Is Planned.

London, July 25.-Wireless messages
will be sent across the Atlantic and to
other parts of the world by new sys-
tenn, according to experts, within four
months, not only much faster than by
the present system but also with such
protection that it will be possible to send
pictures by this means.
The new system has been taken up
by one of the big European telegraph
companies and will be given thor
ough test by syndicate organized un-
der the auspices of the telegraph COM
pany so far as the transmission of wire
less messages is concerned.
Stations are to be erected at Lyons
in France and at Washington and the
inventor claims that he will be able
to send at the rate of 200 words a min
ute.
The improvement consists in being able
to control continuous wave, as COM
pared with intermittent waves by the
present system.
