CASE AGAIN CONTINUED
Man Charged With Theft of $2.10O From His Brother Still Denies His Guilt.

further continuance was ordered by Judge John H. Kirkham today in the case of Michael Duskiewicz, charged with the theft of $2,100 from his brother. Judge B. F. Gaffney is his counsel and at his request the ad- journment was ordered as he has found it impossible to go ahead with the case until August 29. Interesting developments are expected in the case and Stanley Rozanski, Polish in terprter in the court has been dis qualified to act in taht capacity during the trial.
 The accused sill sticks to his story that he has not taken the money and while Peter the brother from whom the money was taken, is unable to present any direct evidence to fix the guilt upon Michael, the state is ready to show conclusive evidence, according to it's officers. The money was missed from the trunk in Peters home on June 26, soon after he had refused his brother a loan of $100. Peter claims that Michael was the only one other than himself who knew where the money was.

FOREIGNERS RETURNING
Many Apply For Bookings and Rea- sons Are Given As Desire to See Friends, Prohibition and Labor.

Another exodus of foreigners to their native land is expected from this city and it is probable that the number returning to Italy, Russia and the other countries of Europe will be even larger than in the groups going di- rectly after the cessation of hostili- ties. A. s. Andrulewicz, connected with the Peoples bank, a Polish insti- tuition, remarked at a meeting of the school board Tuesday that lump sums are being withdrawn from that institution and in his opinion the money is to be used in buying passage back to the old countries. Other banks have not been affected materially, their officers say, and do not expect to have many instances of withdrawal for this reason.
 The desire of local foreigners to see their relatives and friends has been given as the chief reason for the num- Der of applications for bookings, but this is not the only reason for their leaving. Prohibition with it's taking of beer and light wines has caused number of Italians to leave, one otp, them has said while the labor market of their native land has also been 8 big inducement. E

RUBBISH FIRE BURNS
 NEARLY FOUR HOURS
Damages in Lafayette Street Block Principally From Smoke
 Fireman Overcome.

While patrolling his beat. which brings him in the vicinity of Lafay cite street, at about 11:30 last night Officer William P. McCue noticed smoke coming from the main entrance to the block at 22-25 Lafayette street. The policeman investigated and found it to be coming from a fire under the staircase and he rang an alarm through box AZ. Although the mater ial damages from the fire were not great, perhaps not exceeding $100, the difficulty of getting in position from which a stream of water could be played on the fire caused the depart ment to be on the job nearly four hours before the recall was rung in.
 The block is owned by the Miller & Morris Go. and is occupied by about ten families. The ground floor con- tains the stores of Stanley the Tailor the Sheinman Furniture company and A. Tuttle's saloon. None of these es- ta bliShments suffered losses S the fire was confined to the staircase at the main entrance. A considerable amount of old clothing and rubbish carelessly thrown about the base of the staircase was the cause of the greater part of the smoke. The people living in the block were forced to leave their apart ments by smoke and remained out all night.
 While making an attempt to get a line of hose where it would be most effective, Captain George Hoffman ventured into the smoke infested base of the staircase and emerged several minutes almost overcome by the eff fects of the smoke. He was unable to return to fight the fire
