VORENBERG BAR ROBBED
OF $4,000 TUESDAY NIGHT

The Vorenberg Bar was broken into
Monday night or early Tuesday morn
ing and cash box which was hidden
under show case was relieved of its
contents, something over 800.
The entrance was made through n
trap door into the basement where
the robber used his pocket knife in
cutting hole through the pannel in
the door large enough to allow his
hand and arm to reach through to un-
fasten the night lock. After removing
the money from the hiding place he
left through the back entrance, the
night clerk at the hotel seeing him
just as he cleared the back yard fence.
Officers were notified and they were
stationed at the depot, but Mr.. Rob-
ber made his getaway.
The guilty party, or the suspect,
had been around town about two weeks
and had no doubt made "a study of the
surroundings as he did not bungle the
job in the least. Money was his main
object and he secured neat little sum
but his description is known and the
officers may grab him at any time.

z SENATORS F|L|BUS.
TER THEMSELVES TO
CONTEMPT OF NATION

Washington, d. c., March 6.-Pres-
ident Wilson, it was stated authoritative
ly today, will do everything possible
to find a way to arm American ships
and protect them in our ways from
submarine danger, in spite of the fail
ure IF the senate TO pass the bill Civ
ing him specific power.
A final decision on whether the
president can legally arm the ships
without specific authorization is ex-
pected shortly. The opinion expressed
during thei senate debate of the bill
that without action by congress the
president has no right to arm Ameri-
can merchantmen, was taken into care
full consideration, however, and the
president will not act until he is GER
tain.
In deciding on the legal status of
the question, it was learned the presi-
dent and his advisers are considering
the intent of the old statute passed in
1919, which was cited in the senate as
prohibiting the arming of merchant
men for action against armed public
vessels of nations in amity with the
| OHlJeu oldttS.
An extra session Of congress before
July l to pass appropriations il for
no other purpose, seemed today to be
certain. II the senate amends its rules
so prompt action can be taken on an
armed neutrality bill, an extra session
Of congress may be expected within
the next two or three weeks.
/ Messages, apparently spontaneous,
which came to government officials
today from all parts Of the country,
criticised in bitter terms the senator's
who prevented action on the armed
neutrality bill.
Legal limits of president Wilson'S
authority to arm merchant ships were
under consideration today by attorney
general Gregory and secretary of state
Lansing, and decision was expected
before the cabinet meets this after
noon.
| Other suggested alternatives are to
convoy merchant ships, or to have the
federal shipping board take ovcr pri-
vately owned vessels and arm them as
naval auxiliaries.
Senators Vardaman, Democrat of
Mississippi, and Kenyon, Republican
of Iowa, two of the l2 senator's who
did not sign the senate manifesto in
favor Of the armed neutrality bill and
who were included in the group referr-
ed to by President Wilson as "a little
group of wilful men," who had rem
dered the country "helpless and con-
temptible" before the world, explained
TO the senate today that they had not
been in completely to prevent vote
on the bill.
Senator Williams, replying to his
colleague, declared emphatically that
president Wilson was right in his crit
icism of few senators who made leg
islation by an overwhelming majority
impossible in the nations crisis and
that whatever might have been their
motive they, and not congress, were re-
sponsible for the United States being
"helpless and contemplate" before the
world.
