"ROBBED" HIMSELF
 TODECEIVE HIS WIFE

man wandered into police headquar- ters about 7:30 o'clock last night with his clothes cut into strips and a story of his experiences
 According to his tale he had been held up by two negroes at the end of the Gate City car line and robbed of his wal let and several dollars The negroes, to frighten him. had stabbel at him and cut his clothes
 Something about the mans story struck the detectives who were listening as pe- culiar and they started questioning him. In a few moments they had confused the man on several of the details of his story and finally the detectives. searching him. found his money carefully pinned within his shirt He then broke down and ad- mitted that he had held himself up and cut his own clothes in order to deceive his wife.
 According to the man he had been eel ebrating the Fourth of July and, wish ing to withhold from his wife how he had spent his money, he had decided to stage" robbery and allow the news papers to publish the fact that he had been robbed. Then. according to his req soning. he would have got away with all his salary besides having sympathy from his wife on being robbed.

Father Carroll Will Have Charge of
 Parish at Apalachicola

The Rev. Father Carroll who has been first assistant to the rector of St. Paul's church for sometime. has been appointed pastor of the Catholic church at Apalachicola which is in that part of Florida belonging to the diocese of Mobile He is now away on his vacation, and at its expiration he will proceed to his new charge.
 Father Carroll was born and reared in Boston, but studied theology at the seminary in Emmitsburg Mr., and was ordained for this diocese. He has been very popular priest and while his friends will congratulate him on his promotion they will be sorry to see hIm leave. A member of St Paurs con- eregation said last night: T regard Father Carroll as an especially fine preacher. His voice is not strong, but his manner is earnest and his English oiction is unsurpassed he is a clear thinker and his literary style might be taken as model by any young stu dent.
 The Rev. Father Sands, who has been second assistant at St. Pauls in charge of the missions has been promoted to the position vacated by Father Car roll.

COUNTRY ENJOYS
 QU|ETESTF FOURTH
 IN ITS HISTORY
Thirteen Killed and 243 In- jured Yesterday Compared With B Dead and 1131
 Hurt Last Year

Chicago. July 4.-Statistics compiled late tonight show that the country enjoyed the quietest Fourth in it's history. The figures are:
 Dead B; by fireworks 6, by gunpowder f. by torpedoes 1. by revolver l.
 Injured 243; by fireworks 105, by gun powder 30 by torpedoes 5. by toy pistols 5s, by cannon fl, by runaways 4.
 The accidents last year were 32' dead and 1131 injured. The record this year, due to the increasing ''sane Fourth movement, thus far Is less tran hair of the the previous year. and shows but a small proportion of the accidents of a few years ago when the use of fireworks was unrestricted. The figures for today however. may be somewhat increased by more complete returns.
 The property loss so far reported was trivial, as compared with s123,0O0 last year.
 There were fewer deaths in the celebra- tions today than in any of the 16 years that records of the tolls have been kept with the exception of 1s99 when only three lives were lost. But in that year the injured was reported as 1014 or three times that of today.
 Philadelphia's record of ITO injured was more than that of New York, which had the next largest number. and 1t was be- lieved that many of those included in the list suffered from minor hurts. The casualty list at Pttsburg also was high, 27, with no fatalities.
 Only one person was killed and three slightly injured in Chicago. The names of the two boys who died yesterday from burns received in the explosion of fire works they had dug from rubbish near an abandoned factory were added to the list, however.
 Curiosity led Vera Allen, 8 years old, to the spot where she had seen boys place torpedo on car track. A street car came along and exploded the tor pedo, piece of it setting fire to the f1imsy holiday dress she wore. When her mother had extinguished the flames the child was dead. The casualties here were the smallest the city has known.

SERGEANT DARNE[L
 ISSUES STATEMENT
Declares His Department Is Working Hard on
 Assassinations

The police department in the last few weeks has done so much work to- ward solving the recent assassinations that Sidney Darnell. who is at the head of the detective department. issued the following statement:
 'rhe implication that this depart ment Is laying down on the Job of in- vestigating these assassinations is mis- leading to the general public. While realize that the newspapers are not the proper place to transact the business of the detective department. at the same time I feel that in justice to the men who are working on these cases, some statement should be made. "In the Brookins case we have worked diligently almost day and night since the murder, and the fact that a daily diary of our progress has not appeared in the newspapers does not indicate that we are not getting the re- suits.
 Coroner Spain took up the inves- tigation of this case before a jury yes terday. We have furnished him so far with the names of 45 witnesses, all Of whom are in possession of material
 
 Tn addition to furnishing the wit nesses and in order to facilitate the work of investigation, we took it upon ourselves to furnish two men to sub poena the witnesses. There will prob ably be eight or ten men summoned before the inquiry is ended
 In view of the fact that Mr. Brook ins was assassinated in the dark. in a remote place, it seems to me that these facts will indicate some work has been done by somebody.
 "In the matter of the death of AL bert Davidson. we have informed the coroner that the results of our inves- tigation are at his disposal whenever hs sees fit to hold an inquest.
 Tn the Houlihan assassination Detec- tives Moser and Garner are leaving no stone unturned and the parties whom our investigation leads us to believe are guilty of the murder, are either in jail or un- der close surveillance, so that we can get them whenever we want them
 Louis King, who is now in the county jail here and Fred Newman who is the suspects As to their actual guilt this will have to be left to the coroners jury to determine, as the evidence in this case. ts in all the others is purely circumstan- tial there having been no eyewitnesses to the killing.
 Detective Garner left for New Or leans Saturday morning with requisition papers for Newman and should have him here sometime Monday. We will be ready to submit the case to Coroner Spain next week.
 We are still at work on the Thomas case, but not in a position at the present time to make public any of the evidence. The case of the negro, Ramage, is being given the same attention as any of the others
 T am glad that the governor has seen fit to offer a reward Not that 1t will affect our work in any way, but it will very likely bring in outside information which is not obtainable without some in ducement.
 Coroner Spain, the sheriffs forces and the members of this department have worked hand in hand in the investigation of these assassinations, and we shall con tinue to cooperate with them until these cases are settled"
