4 DARING ROBBERY
At FAIR GROUNDS
Hold Up Man and His Wife,
Take 5000 in Diamonds
and Assault Both,

INDIANAPOLIS, Sept, 3.-Thieves
during the night escaped with 5000
worth of jewels and $50 in cash, after
frightfully beating up Walter Baxter
and his wife Clara Baxter, who were
found unconscious and bleeding from
wounds on their heads in their tent
at the fair grounds this morning.
Mr.. Baxter was the ticket seller for
the Mazeppa entertainment company,
which has show at the grounds, and
Mrs Baxter took part as one of the
performers.
Both were taken to the hospital and
are said to be in critical condition.
Large diamond earrings were torn
from the ears of Mrs. Baxter and rings
containing six and seven carat dia-
Inonds were pulled from her fingers.
The motor car of Prof Blackenstoe,
who is also connected with the show,
was found abandoned near Castleton
by member OF the company. The po-
lice are not entirely satisfied with the
story told by the man who discovered
the machine and are inclined to be-
| lieve that there is some connection
between the assault and the missing
automobile.

It was pointed out here that Great

The British demand will be made

Great Britain's contention will be
that the question at issue does not af-

clearly within the scope of the 1908
