Ground Hog Day

Six weeks more Of cold weather, with
IS below as starter. This is the pre-
diction for the rest Of the winter, &C.
cording to Mr.. Ground Hog who, II the
old saying is to be believed. today
makes his annual prognostication OF
what the weather is going to be from
now until the middle of March.
II the cold wave Of last night did no,
make him stick even closer than ever
to his hole. he certainly must have
seen his shadow il he came out to sniff
the freezing air. There may be some
consolation in the hope that perhaps
it was too cold, and Mr.. G. Hog gave
up the idea of making guess of what
the weather was going to be and
turned over and went to sleep again
II such was the case perhaps the
weather viii! not run out to be as Sc
we're as if the four-legged forecaster
had come forth.
From 20 above zero, the temperature
at o'clock Thursday morning. the
mercury dropped steadily during the
day and night to Is below. The latter
was the mark at I o'clock this morn
ing. A year ago today the extremes
were 30 and 9 above. but Feb. 2, 1905,
the mercury dropped to - below.

Requested That Action Against

1t Was Suggested by Commissioner

Throw Away Great Influence

Washington, April %. Correspondence
relating to the proposed dissolution OF
the international Harvester company
| forN arded to the Senate yesterday by
| Attorney General Wckersham, contains

president, to Attorney-GeneraI Bon.

the dissolution of the corporation under
the Sherman law. until further advised
by the president.
! Roosevelt in letter wrote that George
! W. Perkins, with whom he had con.
! fcrred requested that suit be delayed
until the commissioner of corporations
reported upon his investigation Of the
company, then in progress.
The same letter directed Attorney
General Bonaparte to 20 over the mat
ter with Perkins and Commissioner Her
bert Knox Smith.
A later letter from Smith told Of con

objections to prosecution at that time.
Smith wrote that Perkins emphat-
callY concluded that if after all the
endeayors of this company and other
Morgan interests to uphold the policies
Of the administration and to adopt their
methods TO the modern demand for pub
licity this company was now going to
be attacked in purely technical case,
the interests he represented were going
to fight"
Further on Smith wrote. while the
administration never hestated TO Crap
pie with any financial interests when
it believed a substantial wrong was be-
ing committed. nevertheless it is a very
practical question whether ii j. well to
throw away the now great influence Of
the so-called Morgan interests
In another portion of his letter, Smith
reported Perkins as having said sub
stantially The Standard Oil people in
New York were giving him the laugh
for trying to be good and keep solid
with the administration, and now he
was going 10 get the same dose as the
others"
Smith wrote that Perkins outlined the
position Of the Harvester company as
having violated no law of which il knew
and only wished the investigation then
under way by the department Of com
merce and labor be continued.
The attitude of the Morgan interests
he continued. has been one Of the most
active corporations. | believe it is as
Perkins stated. purely technical le-

suit would be moral injustice"

added yesterday morning to the long
list Of those recently committed by
the gang Of bandit anarchists which is
terrorizing Paris.
Assistant Superintendent Jouin Of the
Paris detective department was shot
dead and Chief Inspector Colmar Sc
riously wounded while trying to arrest
one Of the leaders Of the gang named
Bonnet at Petit Iyry a suburb Of. Paris
yesterday The officers were unarmed.
The bandit after shooting the two
wcll-known detectives, succeeded in es-
Gaping, although he was pursued by a
number Of policemen and civilians II
Is believed that he was wounded ny
bullet from one of the poicemen's re-
Noiyers.
The Partisan public has been aroused
by this latest crime to the general opin
ion that the gang must be suppressed.
Another double murder. that Of an
aged man and his wife, who were beat
en- to death in the month OF January in
the village Of Thias on the Seine, has
been traced definitely to the same gang
OF bandits, and this brings the number
OF their victims up to over score II

Was Surrounded by Heavy
Force

Paris, April % In a desperate at
tempt to arrest Bonnet. chief OF the
phantom bandits" Assistant Chief III
Detectives Jouin was killed here yes
terday and officer Colmar was mortally
wounded
After short distance revolver fight
in which the officers were shot, Bonnet
succeeded in getting away.
The escape of Bonnet was the cul-
mnation OF weeks of detective work by
the police of Paris and the nearby prov
inces.
Following the capture Of Carouy and
Callemin, members of the phantom band.
the police were convinced that they
would soon capture the leader He was
located in house in quiet residential
section.
Yesterday the police surrounded the
bandit and with heavy force prepared
to capture him. They expected little
real resistance But Bonnet was armed
with two automatic guns and the mo-
ment he perceived his predicament opened
fire. Jouin and Comar fell under the
fusilIade and in the confusion that fol-
lowed the desperate got away.
At least 30 murders are now charged
against the gang of which Bonnot was
the head Most of the victims were
killed in attacks on banks in towns
near Paris.
Unlike most bandits, the Bonnet gang
did their killing first and the looting
afterward. Upon entering bank they
would shoot down everyone in sight and
then proceed to loot safe or vaults.
