Hillsboro, n. c., April IL: one
of the boldest bank robberies that mas
occurred in North Carolina In many
a day was enacted here sometime last
night or early this morning when
yeggmen slipped into town, forceo an
entrance to the Bank Of Orange ana
with nitroglycerine blew up the vault
and inner doors and took from the
institution between $4,000 and $4,000
in gold and currency. The bank vault
was swept practically clean, the roDo
bers leaving behind only few WV
bills and some small silver: bank
intimation that Hillsboro had been
visited during the night by yeggmen
came when the janitor of the building
went to the bank at $50 O'Clock this
morning to clean up. He found the
door blown from its hinges. There Is
said to be no clue to the robbers. II
Is believed that the yeggmen came into
town this morning about 1.3O O'CLOCK
from the direction Of Greensboro. Al
least three strangers are reported TO
have been seen here shortly after the
arrival Of No. 112 from Greensboro
to Goldsboro. One Of the men. 1t is
said, carried a satchel. A consider
able noise was heard in the direction
of the bank about two o'clock this
morning. No attention was given the
sound at the time but 1t is believed
that the noise Is due to the explosion
that blew the vault door.
Washington, April IA: A state

Of the Democratic delegates thus far
selected and says in part: with the
sweeping victory scored in the Penn
sylvania primaries yesterday Cover
nor Woodrow Wilson took the lead in
the pre-convention race for the DEM
ocratic presidential nomination. The
seventy votes of the Pennsylvania
Democracy, which were given the
New Jersey executive in a popular
voting contest, are the largest number
yet accorded any of the candidates by
a single state. Governor wilson's
strength in the Baltimore convention
Is now represented by 142 votes. The
delegate column of the New Jersey
executive will continue to receive
large accessions." At Speaker Clark's
headquarters a statement was issued
Of which the following Is part: NO
one knows now how the Pennsylvania
delegation to the Baltimore conven-
ton stands. There is nothing in the
Pennsylvania law or in any state COM
mittee order that imposes any obliga-
ton upon any delegate to vote for any
particular presidential candidate. In
Illinois the names of presidential can
didates were on the ballot and the
vote was directly preferential; but the
homes Of the presidential candidates
were not on the Pennsylvania primary
ballots. It is impossible, therefore, to
say definitely what may be the judg-
ment of the Pennsylvania delegation.

Wilson and Roosevelt carried the
state Of Pennsylvania in the preferen-
tial primaries of last Saturday, by
overwhelming majorities. Incomplete
returns received up to yesterday morn
ing give the former president IS of the
states rs delegates in the Republican
national convention. The Roosevelt
supporters are claiming 81 and later
returns may carry the fight to that
total. Col. Roosevelt won SO of the
81 district national delegates, and his
followers elected enough delegates to
the state convention to give them con-

large. Gov. Woodrow Wilson Of New
Jersey. who had an organization, will
get "A OF 76 delegates from Pennsyl-
vania i'm the Democratic national con-
vention. In the Eleventh district the
delegates are for Champ Clark. Poll
ticianS look upon the triumph of Col.
Roosevelt with establishment. The
supporters of the former president
were without a state organization or
without an organization of any kind
in many of the 32 congressional dis
tricts. The regular organization,
headed by Senator Penrose, which has
withstood the fury Of many political
storm, received a crushing defeat in
the loss of the control of the state
convention. 1t is the first time in the
present generation that it has lost con-
troll of that body. In addition to
naming the twelve delegates at large
to Chicago, the convention will select
thirty eight presidential electors, four
candidates for congressman at large,
and candidates for state treasurer and
auditor general, all to be voted for In
the November election. The signifi-
canoe Of the Roosevelt victory can be
realized when it is remembered that

of the normal total vote. Roosevelt
is said to have received his heaviest
support from the reform element of the
state, represented by the Keystone
party. which since it was organized,
about two years ago, has opposed the
regular Republicans at every election
and succeeded in electing reform
mayor of Philadelphia last year.
