ROBBER
Gang IS Sentenced
Plead Guilty 10 Attempt TO
Enter Postoifice; Get Two
and Five Year Terms
COURT CLOSES EAR
TO LENIENCY PLEA

TRENTON, Feb. 16.--The FIVE yegg
men who attempted 10 crack the safe
of the Pennsgroye postofice. January
Z. were sent to the State Prison by
Federal Judge Rellstab yesterday
Frank Stebbins. Charles collins and
Henry r. Hamilton were sentenced
TO five years each, and Frank Matson
and John Mayo received sentences Of
two years. Judge Rellstab said that
Stebbins, Collins and Hamilton were
the brains Of the gang and deserved
The more severe treatment. The men
were arraigned some time ago and
pleaded not guilty, but retracted their
pleas.
Counsel FOR the prisoners, Harry II.
Thurlow. o. this city. made a plea
for leniency. He sand that Mayo
never had been arrested before and
that Matson. except for a minor Of
fense in Philadelphia. never before
had faced a Court. He pleaded for
Stebbins and Collins on the ground
that both were suffering from tuber-
culosis and for Hamilton. who, he
said, deserted the gang before the
crime and took no part in it,
Collins made personal plea and
said that o prison term meant a
death sentence for him. When he
found that he was sure to go TO
prison he asked that he be sent TO
Atlanta, where there is a sanatorium,
and Stebbins made the same request.
Judge Rellstab. however said that
no more prisoners could be sent TO
Atlanta. but he would make a special
effort to get the men there.

Decrease IN BOOKS FROM
LIBRARY During MONTH

Arthur L. Bailey, librarian Of the
Institute Free Library. reported &c the
board Of managers last might that
during January the library added 407
books. Inasmuch as 404 volumes we're
withdrawn the net increase was three
volumes.
The number Of books issued for
home use was 25.7S7. a decrease Of
1851 as compared with the corre-
spending month Of last year. The de-
crease at the Central Library was
1890. due to the fact that many reg
ular borrowers have been attending
the services at the tabernacle. This
large decrease at the Central Library
was partly made up by the circulation
OF 1886 at the Brandywine Branch.
and an increase in the number Of
books issued from the various schools.
The new deposit station, corner OF
Elm and Adams streets. showed a
circulation OF 129. While the cir
culatlon is small at this station. the
number OF persons who have used
the reading room during the three
evenings a week when IL was opened
was in the neighbOrhood or hfty TOT
each evening. The number of pic
lures issued was 73s. an increase OF
272.
Although the number OF books is
sued showed a large decrease, the
number OF those who registered for
the privileges OF the library was 712,
an increase Of so.
The only noticeable gift Of the
month was a collection OF 100 repro
ductions in a photogravure of various
paintings, given by William Boyle.
These pictures are so large that il
will be impossible to place them on
exhibition until the library has more
space at its disposal They are, how
over. worth an examination by al
lovers OF fine art.

GIBBSTOWN. n. j., Feb. 16.-sev-
eral workmen barely escaped being
seriously injured yesterday afternoon
when a distillation house at the Re-
pauno plant Of the dupont Powder
Company blew up. The house. which
was used for the manufacture Of
triton, an exceptionally high explo-
slve, was a small brick structure, and
the loss was small compared with
previous explosions which recently
have occurred at the plant
AS no one was in the building at the
time the cause of the explosion is un-
known, but workmen who were en-
ployed nearby claim they saw fire
burning in the building several min
utes before the explosion took place.
The explosion sent bricks flying in
all directions through the air, mar

THE STUDEBAKER IS
LARGEST PRODUCERS
OF CERTAIN CARS

D. u. Tolman Of the Albuquerque
Motor company, local agency for the
Studebakers, says.
During the past fourteen months,
according 20 Information just made

ger cars. In that period 10000 Stude-
baker passenger automobiles
were built and shipped Not only Is
this a larger number than any other
maker OF seven-p passenger motor cars
placed In the hands of owners during
the same time, IT Is also a record
number for any fourteen months pc
Rod In the history Of the automobile
industry.
In addition to the seven passenger
cars. there has also been a large IN
crease In tho output OF roadsters and
closed cars, IN fact, in all the models
built by the Studebaker Corporation.
THE Studebakcr business has shown
q 100 per cent Increase during the past
year. ana production at present Is at
the rate Of 90 600 cars annually. This
will show a gain of 60 per cent over
the output of last year, which up 10
that time set a new record for Stude-
baker Two years ago the production
was $1,000 Studebakers for the year
The dealer organization has grown
from 1000 to more than $500 dealers
The Studebaker Corporation is now
represented in nearly every city and
town In the country.
ITO take care Of the contemplated
record production during the coming
year all preparation has been made,
including the purchase of large
tract Of property adjoining plant No.
