PACKERS OF FRUIT TO
TAKE ANNUAL OUTING
Will o ne at Saltair and Then Hold
Important Business
Session.

Utah Gamers Will hold their annual
outing at Saltair tomorrow. They
are to have q dinner at the resort,
following which meeting will be
held for the purpose of organizing a
corporation to build and control the
canneries of Utah. The movement is
backed by Mrs. Caroline B. Seymour
of New York, who invented the "out
of the ordinary" process of preserving
fruits and who is president of the
Caroline Seymour Preserving COM
pany of New York.
A meeting for the purpose of or.
ganizing the company was held yes
terday afternoon at the Utah cham
Der of commerce, but the business
was postponed. Mrs Seymour stated
that It was her purpose to have Utah
fruit known in the east as the best
fruit in the world" The Utah can
ners, according to Mrs. Seymour, are
not at present producing the best
canned goods possible-the class Of
goods that are in demand in the fancy
markets of large eastern cities. BY
the aid of the proposed company she
thinks that not only will an ample
market be provided for Utah's large
fruit crop, but Utah's fruit will
also acquire the reputation it de-
serves.

ROBBERS GET $500.
Gag Cashier Of Insurance Company
and Get Away With Cash

NEW YORK. October 29-Three rob-
bers entered the branch office of the
Prudential Life Insurance Company at
24S F1atbush avenue, Brooklyn, at 2
at O'Clock yesterday afternoon, and got
away with about $780, One clue the DO
lice have to the identity of the men is a
handkerchief which they left in the mouth
of Miss Alice Brenneis, the cashier, when
they went away. They have also the de-
scription of the men, given them by the
cashier.
Miss Brenneis was alone in the Office
when two men walked in and said they
were employees of the New York Tele-
phone Company, and came to change the
receiver on the telephone instrument be-
hind the glass partition. Miss Brenneis
thought she recognized one Of the men as
an emplOye of the company and opened
the door. AS soon as they got into her
compartment they seized and gagged her
fastening her hands behind her back.

Mary Morley Of Holly cottage. Bath
Beach. came to the office. She met q
man who was presumably the lookout
for the two who had entered the place.
He told her that the cashier had gone
out Of her mind and that he was on his
way to summon the police. Miss Morley
glanced into the office and made up her
mind that a robbery was in progress. She
rushed out and called for help.
In the excitement the men made their
escape. The handkerchief is of small
value as a clew to their Identity 1t Is

Roosevelt rested TODAY. by his Doctors
orders, to save his strength for tomor-

Garden. For half an hour during the
forenoon he strolled about the grounds of
his home, and after*ard spent an hour
debating letters. He was still troubled
with soreness in his right side. and it
probably will be several weeks before he
has full use of his right arm.
Col. Roosevelt has partially resumed
direction OF The campaign. and a num-
Der of the letters which he sent Off To-
day were addressed to progressive leaders
in various states.
Although he is eager to get back into
the fight. his physicians say he is not
strong enough to take up the detailed
work OF management, and probably will
be able to do little more than act in an
advisory capacity during the remaining
week of the campaign.
