went directly to the cash drawer, ap-
parently to take some trading stamps.

made a dash for the door. PATROL

plan. had stationed himself in front
Of the store and heard Gardeners
whistle from the inside. Grifing
landed right into v~andergrift's hands.

stolen trading stamps from his en-
ployers on two previous occasions

Prince street revealed conditions Of
poverty that were appalling in the
extreme.
In a crowded tenement, teeming in
hot weather, a representative of the

DR.. Parsonett said that the condi-
lions did not warrant keeping the
child at home and advised Ae par
ents to remove 1t to the City Hospi-

the illness was due to the hot wealth
er, inadequate food and impure air.

CUTS WAY TO LIBERTY.

John S. Kennedy, the new warden
of Sing Sing prison, realized yester-
day the truth of the old proverb that
stone walls do not a prison make nor
iron bars cage. At the lime the con-
victs were to be taken from their
cells to go to work, one of them, Fran
cesco Doliand, an italian, was among
the missing.
An investigation was at once start
ed and it was found that he had sue
ceeded in cutting a hole through the
slate roof of the main cell building,
although he and all the convicts are
supposed to be seen by the keepers
on their rounds once every hour. His
cell was on the top gallery at the
northeast end of the cell house and
his escape had been effected by crawl
ing through small space used for
ventilation until he reached a posi-
ton under the slate roof. Then with
cold chisle he made an opening
large enough for him to get through.
He took his blankets with him, and,

tearing them into strips, constructed
a rope by means of which he lowered
himself to the ground outside the
prison walls. Then all he had to do
was to climb the wall enclosing the
railroad tracks and make for the back
country. He was not missed by the
keepers until nearly seven o'clock,
when his cell was found empty. He
is supposed to have worked at the
roof while trains were passing the
prison, as they always make good
deal of noise and some of the freights
take a long time in passing.
The prison whistle was sounded at
100 o'clock, giving the signal to the
village that a convict had escaped,
and this meant $4,000 to whoever
might capture him. A description
of the man was sent to all the sur
rounding villages, and keepers hur
ried in all directions to hunt for the
fugitive. Some thought he might
have crossed the Hudson on the ice
to ROckland county.
All speculation, however, was lait
aside this afternoon when word was
received at the prison from Chief O

Not only is the United States in

cording to the official figures of that
island, the United States supplied
51.5 per cent of the imports, compar-

both Spain and the United Kingdom
have lost in the share which they sup
ply of the imports into Cuba and are
also taking a smaller share of the eX-
ports from that island. OF the total
imports into Cuba, the share of the
United Kingdom was, in 1900, 1871 per
