o size and one mans sixteen size, in
addition to an lngersoll watch. A

The attendance at the meeting last
night at the Retail Merchants AS
sociation was very well attended, the
session lasting over two and one-half
hours.
This timo was spent In a general
discussion of affairs relative to the
past and future improvement OF local
retail trade. II
Principally the matters discussed
related to a continuance OF the re-
bate In fares to out-of-town pur-
chasers, the great success attending

The second most important matter

the city to the Greenfield Ferry at

road the past year has been expended
considerable money, approximately
$500, but It will necessitate the rais-

1t from being washed away by floods
as was the case last spring.
However. to complete the road it
is necessary to raise the money
through public donations and a COM

pose.
The city will be requested to
donate the old broken up concrete

Chicago, Jan. > Four automo-
bile bandits smashed in a jeweley' S
window here. today and escaped with
tray of diamonds. followed by run
ming fight with the police.
The escape was aided by a fash
ionbly dressed woman, who fell in
the arms OF uniformed policeman
as he was drawing his revo yer to
fire upon the escap ng robbers. AS
soon as they were oui of sight the
woman recovered herself and dlsap-
peared.
A few minutes later the bandits
car was boarded by policeman,
who ordered them to drive to a po-
lice station charging them with fast
driving. They turned into quiet
street with the policeman and then
shot, stabbed and slugged him and
threw him off the car. The men
aboard the automobile, disappeared
in a crowded section OF the west
side.
The raid and running fight was
one of the most thrill ing of automo-
bile bandits in the record OF this
typo OF robbery in this country. The
thieves stole the ear fl'om I'm irons
of d down town business building
late in the afternoon. A short time
later, passes in front Of the Clark

a crash OF glass. Two men were
seen beating in the show window

rings and leaped into the automo-
bic which was moving slowly by
the curb.
Policeman Hanson ran up, reach
ing TO. his revolver, but at this mo-
ment woman. with a large feath
cred hat, gave scream and then
threw herself into his arms. Ham
son could not use his reyo YER. but
two plain clothes men who were
passing fired upon the bandits The
bandits returned the fire as they
clambored into the car and one of
the men was seen to fall and is
thought to have been wounded
Twenty shots were exchanged. The
chauffeur manipulated the exhaust
so that cloud OF smoke aided in
their escape
The bandits car was stopped by a
traffic policeman after they had
gone a block away from the scene
of the robbery and the chauffeur
was arrested for exceeding the speed
limit.
Jump into the car old man and
we VIII take you to the station
house." said one Of the men to the
policeman. He stepped on the run
ming board and told the men which
way to go. The chauffeur took n
wrong turn into LaSalle street. The
policeman tried to protest and was
shot. stabbed with q knife over the
left eye, given a blow on the back
of the head and then thrown from
the car. The thieves fired several
more shots as the policeman lay in
the street. He raised himself up on
one arm as the men fled and fired az
them.

STOPPING, the Black Seigneur
snatched the slender form to his

looking around him, as one who made
himself familiar with the place, his
glance apparently found what 1t sought

Danger Of Getting In Front Of the
Guns During Russian War
ManeuVers.

Forty-two soldiers were shot during
the recent maneuvers of the Russian
army. The announcement is stolidly
made by the minister Of war. He
adds, "These men were in advance of
the guns"
AS guns do not ordinarily shoot
backward, the minister's cryptic ex-
PLANTATION may be considered super
Huous. The incident is. perhaps, in
teresting chiefly because Of the light
it throws on Russia's official attitude
toward the value OF human life. It
fits in aptly with the reports of exc
cutions, imprisonments and exiles
which, coming from all parts Of the
czar's domains, keep the world in
formed of the progress Of heartless
oppression
II Is not surpAfing that the empire
is rocked with discomfort. that OBJ
