to Mulhall:

the cabinet job as one which the presi~

Quickly Disarmed.

As Patrolman Swanson with his re-
volver drawn approached Martin in
the Peery Knisely store the man made
a move as if to reach for his hip
pocket, but the officer pressed the gun
against his ribs, causing him to change
his mind, Martin was inclined to fight
after he had been disarmed, but he was
quickly subdued. McSwiggin offered no
resistance when Swanson approached
him in the dry goods store and took a
gun from the front of his shirt. Both
men had walked quietly into the stores
and were engaged in looking about as
if intending to purchase goods.
Bump was detected by John Harvey
of the Alvord store as he emerged from
An alley onto Grant avenue after re"
naming hidden near the Kiese build
ing for few minutes. Following the
man on bicycle, Harvey trailed him
to Twenty-fftb street, and in the di-
rection of Lincoln avenue, When be
had come close upon him Harvey dis
mounted from his wheel and, creep
ing up behind Bump, pinioned his arms
to his sides. The bandit showed fight,
but was quickly overpowered by Har-
vev and Inspector Shorten. who came
TO his assistance. Officer Blackburn ar
rived few moments later and re-
moved a revolver from the prisoner s
pocket.

At police headquarters the bandits

are believed fictitious. Their revolvers
were found to be of IS cahbre, mount

officers IL was plain that the three des-

highly commended by Chief of Police
w. I. Norton and others for bis
bravery.
In addition TO the guns, the men
were found to have more than 800 in
their possession. Much Of this amount
was the proceeds of the two robberies.

was about to be given the "third de.

TO proceed and see how fruitless would
be their efforts. adding that there was
no need of obtaining further informa-
tion because the officers had "tbe
dope on them.
All OF the men resisted the efforts
which were made to take their pic

contorted their faces and closed their
ewes. None of the officers can recop.

treaty, said he believed the new pro-

treaty ''to the most careful considera-

The proposed treaty will be attacked
IN some quarters on the ground that II
would be moral obligat ton on the Unit

and repays her cid debts. even though
The treaty does not make this country

WASHINGTON, July 2l,-Strong
support has developed In the senate
for President Wilson S policy of pro-
lection and supervision over Nicaragua.
An informal poll Of the committee on
foreign relations today indicated that
the treaty proposed Saturday by Sec.
retary Bryan Will be indorsed with a
safe margin OF votes and come into the
senate with the backing of influential
members of both political parties.
1t became known definitely today
that the proposal does not bind the
United States to any obligation for the
outstanding debts of Nicaragua. The
rehabilitation of the republics finances
IS expected to come about through the
stability that would be given to future
operations through the control to be
exercised by the United States.

Right to Intervene.

Nicaragua would agree to make no
debts In excess of her current re-
sources, however, and the United
States would be given the right to in.
tervene through representatives to in,
sure Nicaraguan peace or to protect life
and property. Nicaragua would agree
TO make no foreign treaties that would
threaten her independence and the
United States would pay Nicaragua
S3,000,000 for an exclusive right to
build a canal route and for a naval
base in the Bay of Fonseca.

justice.

given with magisterial severity. Il
