NO ARRESTS as
YET IN BIG
JEWELRY THEFT

Narragansett Pier. R. l., Aug. l.
The disappearance of s175,000 worth of
Jewels from two residents in the sum-
mer colony was unexplained today,
though a small army of detectives
had been working on the mystery since
last Saturday night.
Mrs. John II. Hanan, who sustained
more than one-half of the total loss,
was indisposed as a consequence of
disturbance of her household, COM
bined with the serious illness of her
husband. The latter was said to be
showing some Improvement.
According to Charles c. Rumsey. the
original estimate of the losses at his
cottage was much too small and the
figure is now placed at $125,000.
A report that Mr.. Rumsey had dis
missed the detectives who have been
in his employ could not be confirmed.

Diets CLOSING OF WO0lEN MILLS.
COST OF LIVING WOULD
NOT Be REDUCED

Washington. D. G., Aug. SENATOR
Catron, Republican, of New Mexico,
opposed free raw wool and the reduc-
tions in woolen manufactures in a
speech on the Underwood Simmons
tariff bill.
"If this bill is carried into law
Senator Catron declared, "a blow will
be given to the sheep industry which
will extinguish it unless those people
Interested in sheep shall do as they
did in 1894 and 1S95--buy all the hold
ings of the small owners and carry the
large focks into what would be de-
nominated by the party in power as a
trust or monopoly
The senator further asserted that
the proposed law would close the wool
en- mills.
A foreign monopoly would, he as
serted, intervene to keep prices up and
prevent cheapening the cost of living
through the free-listing of wool and
fifty per cent reduction in wool manu-
factures.
Senator Gronna of North Dakota
continued his assault in the senate
today on the Underwod-Simmons tar
if bill, renewing his criticism of the
agricultural schedules.
He compared the proposed rates on
all agricultural products with the tar
ifs of other countries and asserted
that in everything the farmer raises
he will be put at great disadvantage.

stitute the cotton schedule of the
Dingley act of 1897, less 20 per cent

Great Britain's Reason.

London, Aug. 1.-THE reason why
Great Britain is holding aloof from
the Panama-Pacific exposition, which
is to be held in San Francisco in 1915,
is. according to the officials of the
British board of trade, because their
inquiries have shown it to be impos
sible to induce sufficient number of
British manufactures to incur the nee
essary cost of preparing exhibits.
Decision no Surprise.
San Francisco, Calf, Aug. 1.-THE
announcement today from st. Peters
burg that Russia would not exhibit at
the Panama-Pacific International eX-
position here in 1915 was expected at
exposition headquarters and excited
10 surprise. Russia's attitude is al
tributed to the action of congress in
abrogating the treaty between the two
nations because of Russia's refusal to
issue passports on a basis of equality
with other foreigners to Jews who
have become American citizens

Germany May Not Come,

Berlin, Aug Although the Ger
man secretary of the interior declared
today that Germany lad not yet taken
any action in regard to questions of
participation in the Panama-Pacific
exposition at San Francisco in 1915,
the opinion is freely expressed in Of
fetal circles that the German empire
will not be represented there.
1t was pointed out today that the
British governments decision not to-
participate settles also the action of
Germany, as the only factor which
might have induced the German gov
ernment to bring pressure to bear on
unwilling business men to exhibit was
the fear of unfavorable competition
with Great Britain. Business men in
the majority of cases declare them
selves tired of the expense connected
with frequent expositions and say
they see no prospect of financial re-
turns should they exhibit at San Fran.
