ARMED NEGROES ROB
GROCER OF HIS CASH
Simon Rubin Held Up at Pistol
Point-Police Seeking Skilled
Sneak Thief.

Simon Rubin was held up at the
point of pistol by three negroes
in his grocery store. at 1541 c street
southeast, last night and his cash
register robbed of about $40 and two
checks.
Rubin was in the store alone about
$3.50 O'Clock when the men entered
and one of them asked for a box of
matches. When he started to get
them another of the men, drawing
a revolver, commanded him to put
up his hands. He was held still
while the cash register was rified.
The grocer told the police he had
more money in the register last night
than usual because yesterday was
pay day and numerous patrons of
his store wanted bills changed He
said the robbers were strangers to
him.
A young white man. fairly well
dressed. appeared on upper TWEEN
tieth street between 8 and o'clock
yesterday afternoon in the role of q
sneak thief. according to a police
report. but so far as the police were
able TO ascertain he succeeded in
obtaining only $3.50. The money was
in pocketbook that was taken from
the apartment of Mrs. Frank r. Wall,
2440 Twentieth street
Mrs. Wall left the door of her apart
ment unfastened when she went to
use telephone, she reported to police
Of the eighth precinct, and when she
returned she missed her pocketbook.
The man suspected of having COM
mitted the theft was seen trying doors

Burglars made an unsuccessful at

Hyman F'ishman, 100 New Jersey
avenue southeast, about O'Clock
this morning. A glass was cut from

by the burglars trying to force an en-
trance to the store attracted attention,
and they were frightened away
An intruder entered the apartment
of Marion Herr, 1875 Lanier place,
through side window early last night
and stole string of pearls, two brace

SENATE PROPOSES
QUOTALAW DELAY
Resolution Sent to House
Urging Delay of Year for I'm
migration Measure.

The Senate yesterday adopted and
sent to the House resolution post
poning for one year the provision oil
existing law under which immigra
ten quotas for various countries
would be fixed on the basis of ma
tional origin.
While thu resolution WAS before the
Senate II ed TO debate over the adj
visibility OF repeating in the next
Congress The national origin method
of limiting immigration.
Would Aid Britain.
Chief objection to basing the quotas
on the national o. jgin of immigrants
entering the country during the cen
fury ended in 1920 has been that the
number of immigrants coming from
the Irish Free State, Germany and
the Scandinavian countries would be
materially decreased.
Great Britain and Italy would be
the chief gamers in quotas under the
national origin, the formers allot-
ment increasing from 34,eoT to 1903
and the latters from 3,S45 To 6,091.
This would absorb practically all of
the losses to the other countries.
Reed Opposes Both Plans.
Under the Senate resolution the
present plan of basing the quotas on
the foregn-born population of the
United States as shown by the cen
sus of 1890 would continue ia force
for another year.
Meantime efforts will he made TO
arrive at more equitable distribu-
ton of immigrants among the vari-
Gus countries.
Opposing both plans. Senator Reed,
Democrat, Missouri. demanded gen
eral overhauling of the immigration
law so that there could be selective
immigration with the undesirables
from all countries excluded and ad-
mission accorded to those who came
here with the full purpose of becom-
ing useful citizens.

VERMONT BUILDING SALE
is PROTESTED IN SUIT
Pennsylvania Asks Recession OF
Contract Through Plea in
District Court.

James Z. Glass Of Swarthmore, Pa,
yesterday filed suit in the District SUI
preme Court to stop the auction sale

sion Of a contract by which he con.
veyed property in Gloucester County

D. Porter and Percy w. Pickford, in
dividually, and as trustees Mildred L.
Davis, the Merchants Bank & Trust
Co. and Charles j. Crump. Through
+. Regis Noel and William C. Sulli-
van the plaintiff claims that the value
Of the building was represented to
him as 100000 and that it had a
monthly income of $3,30650. He as
serts that the building. he has dis
covered. is not worth more than $780,

made known his intentions, but Small
adherents are sure the governor Will
announce his candidacy for a third
term at the State Fair next week.
The Chicago Tribune expressed the
opinion that many Republicans saw
the conference as a virtual announce
ment of both their candidates., and
the Herald Examiner also remarked
about the close alignment of the two
forces in city and State politics.
Lundin Cause of Split.
Fred Lundin, the Poor Swede, "
who at one time was Thompson's po-
litical godfather, was the indirect
cause of the split between Gov.
Small and Mayor Thompson two years
ago. The disagreement came when
the governor chose Lundin in prefer
ence to Thompson for political assist
ance during a critical State campaign.
At that time the Small-Thompson-
Lundin machine was most powerful,
but when a dispute arose and the
break came Thompson stepped out
and this year returned to power as
mayor, despite the opposition of his
former ally, Lundin. After the prl-
maries Small was said to have thrown
his support to Thompson, the forerun-
ner of the present reunion, which al
ready has obtained for Thompson a
$50, 900, 600 increase in the city's bond
ing power and State gas tax Tor

and State supports

Messages to Lincoln.
There are four or five kilograms
from Grant to Lincoln, but they deal
with purely routine matters in all but
one instance. In this case the Presi-
dent had inquired if some agreement
could not be reached with the enemy
by which both armies would stop the
burning of private houses and barns.
Grant insists that such an agreement
would not be practicable but advises
Lincoln to promulgate such an order
to apply to the Northern Army alone
and then take steps to see that the
text of this order fell into the hands of
the Confederates, in the hope that
they would follow it's example. An
agreement. he says, would be almost
certain to be broken by both sides
and eventually would only make the
arson situation worse.

during the Summer Of 1864, Grant,

exchange of prisoners which, he
claims, benefits the South, with its
dwindling manpower, much more than
it does the North. He also is urging
the cleaning out of Northern hospitals
of all convalescents able to return to

era1 occasions at the practice OF
enffsting Confederate prisoners Of war
in the Union Army and then sending
them as requirements to combat regi-
ments. These men, he says, change
sides again as soon as an opportunity
presents itself.

"robs us of a soldier and adds one to
the enemy with a bounty paid In
loyal money"
