Chicago, Nov. 30.-That half a mil
lion doSdrs in property has been stol-
en- by a syndicate of twenty thieves,
headed by two physicians, now under
arrest with two others at detective
headquarters, is the assertion of Off
GERS who have been following the
trail of the thieves for months. The
alleged leaders of the formidable or

DR.. Edward B. Stalhutte, Joseph Todd
and Romus Doughty.
The property, it is declared, was
Systematically taken from railroads,
warehouses and steamship lines and
consisted of automobiles. motorcycles
and loads of merchandise of every de-
scription. Within the last two years,
embraced freight house employees, ex-
press company men, the thieves them
selves, fence keepers and jobbing
houses to dispose of the stolen goods.
Loot amounting to $4,000 has already
been recovered from barns and ware
houses.

the alleged thieves, is said to have

BEST MONTH EVER.
November a Record Breaker in Many
Lines of Trade.

New York, Nov 3O.-R c. Dun &
Co.'S Weekly Review of Trade says:
November has been in many respects
the best month this country has ever
experienced, and every prospect is
pleasing for a holiday season of ex-
traordinary activity. The demand for
iron and steel products rises higher
than the productive and transportation
resources of the trade. In all impor-
tant branches an active business is re-
ported and new orders received are in
great volume. Current indications point
to maximum records of production in
1913.
1t is believed that by the end of the
present year exports will figure close
to 3,000.0 900 tons All descriptions of
finished products are firm and specifica-
lions come in freely There is still a
scarcity of crude steel, and premiums
are paid for prompt supplies, with $3.50
and $27 Pittsburg, quoted for open
hearth billets for the first quarter. Pig

ing the adjustment of ore prices for
1913, and sales of basic iron aggregate

ket is eminently satisfa Glory. Prices

additional advances are esta bhshed. De-
mand for cotton goods steadily broad

and primary stocks much reduced, job
bers are being forced to place business
further ahead to insure the deliveries
wanted. Wide sheetings and denimS
have been advanced and there is
further Improvement in fine and fancy
cotton for spring, while brown sheet
ings and prints are very firm and sell
ing steadily. Mills are complaining of
the scarcity of labor and, while orders
are plentiful considerable machinery is
idle. In woolens and worsteds, bust
ness continues in large volume. There
is continued advance in the volume of
shoe business. Leather is still strong,
but hides are easier.
