ATTEMPT POSTOFFICE ROBBERY

CHARLESTON, Wn., Feb. 25.-The
postoffice safe was blown open in an
attempted robbery yesterday morning,
the robbers securing nothing of value.
1t is evident that they were frightened
away by the noise of the explosion or
did not have the tools to force the in
ner door of the safe which remained
intact. The outer door was blown
completely to pieces and parts of it
were blown against the rear wall 45
feet away, so great was the force of
the explosion. Nitroglycerine was
used and the noise was muffled by the
empty mail sacks. From all evidence
it was the work of amateurs.

Said Mr. Brown, "The question of

that rates are likely to go lower than

In his report to the Comptroller of
the currency, Mr.. Brown pointed out
that conditions in February were
slow owing to inclement weather with
disturbances of transportation facil
tiles. No demand for money existed
during the month, and banks were in
the market for loans Or investments.
From Mr. Browns examination of
three states, the livestock industry
seems to promise greatest activity
with a promise that the lumber in

Opposed to Warming Americans Not
to Travel on Armed
Merchantmen
By the United Press Associations.

By the United Press Associations
WASHINGTON, Feb. 25. - Argu-
ments of House conferees today fail
ed to swerve President Wilson from
his stand that Germany's decree with
regard to submarine attacks on arm
ed merchantmen transgresses inter-
national law.
After an hours session with Speaker
Clark, and Representatives Kitchin
and Flood, there still existed a dis
agreement between the president and
congress about the decree.
Wilson emphatically declared that
he would not bulge from his plan of
insisting that Germany recognize eve
ry American right. Clark replied just
as emphatically that the, House is
overwhelmingly in favor of issuing a
warning to Americans not to take pas
sage on armed merchantmen under
belligerent flags. After much argu-
ment, all promised the president that
they would prevent the house from
taking action today.
When the senate convened, Senator
Gore, a democrat, Immediately intro
duced bill forbidding Americans to
travel on armed vessels during the
war; also a resolution warning them
to refrain from such travel. The
senate tabled the Jones resolution re-
questing the president not to sever
relations with any nation,
and not to place America in any posi-
ton where she could not honorably
avoid war.

according to announcements made this
afternoon. There were no attacks last

offensive has been checked, tempor-
arily, at least.
New positions are being organized
by the French behind Beaumont
Heights, east of Champneuville, and
south of Ornes, near Verdun. They
are preparing to meet expected re-
newals of the German drives.

BANDITS HOLD UP
NORTH COAST LTD.
TWO MEN, HEAVILY ARMED,
STOLE FIVE POUNCHES OF
REGISTERED MAIL
POstOffice Officials Unable to Say
What the Value of Booty
Was

TACOMA, Feb. 25.-An automobile
seen speeding toward Seattle is believ-
ed to have been waiting at Ravens
dale for the two heavily armed bandits
who held up the Northern Pacific's
eastbound North Coast Coast Limited
train near Covington, 25 miles east OF
/ Seattle, last night, and after uncoupl-
ing the baggage and mail cars, which
they ran a short distance up the track
stole five pouches of registered mail
which had been received from the
orient and was being forwarded to
New York.
The bandits used five charges of
dynamite in an unsuccessful attempt
to blow open the express safe.
After robbing the mail car and fail
ing to blow open the express safe,
the robbers uncoupled the engine,
which they ran two miles up the track
to within mile of Ravensdale, where
they abandoned the engine and es-
capped in the surrounding forest.
Four of the registered mail pouches
were found on the floor of the engine
cab. The pouches had been cut open
and letters and packages rifled. Post
office officials last night were unable
to make even a guess as to the value
of the loot obtained by the robbers.
The passengers were not molested,
although they were badly frightened
by the robbers, who fired several shots
to intimidate them after the train
was stopped.
Two automobiles filed with deputy
sheriffs left Seattle soon after the rob-
berry and others of small towns along
the railroad were notified to join in
the hunt for the men. Because of the
nature of the country, which is a part
ly wooded district in the foothills of
the Cascade mountains, it is feared
that the men will be able to make
their escape and reach Seattle or Ia
coma. The police of both cities have
been instructed to watch for the men.
The North Coast Limited train left
Seattle for Chicago at 7:10 and was
stopped by the robbers an hour and
half later, half an hour after it had
turned eastward at Auburn and be-

toward the crossing of the Cascade
