CASH DISAPPEARS
 FROM CAFETERIA
Burglars Steal Money Bag Overlook Another at Liv-
 cry Street Place
Cut Screen, Break Glass. Turn Key
 and Enter

While Millers cafeteria. Livery street. isn't a cafeteria in the strict sense of the word, someone, last Thursday night. took t as such and helped themselves, not Co any of Joe's delectable menu. but the proprietor's 8 money bag in which there was be- tween eight and nine dollars in change. The chef. Joseph Gagne. dis covered the break soon after he ar- rived in the early morning hours Co prepare the days bill of fare and to serve early morning breakfasters.
 Entrance was gained through a door on the north side of the build ing behind the Livery street garage. The door leads into the kitchen and the key was in the lock. The burglar cut the screen from the door, broke a pane of glass and then reached through and turned the key unlocking the deor. Before noticing the key in the lock an attempt was made to pry open the door with an iron bar of some kind. This is apparent from the marks on the west side of the door.
 Shows Familiarity
 It would seem that the person who e mmitted the crime was familiar with the custom of the proprietor, Louis Miller, for he went to a place under the counter and took the money bag containing change. A bag con taining the receipts in the cash reg ister at closing time was hidden else where and was not discovered by the burglar. This bag contained much more than the bag stolen.
 The police were notified of the break. Friday morning. Nothing in the restaurant was disturbed and the burglar or burglars apparently left the place by the same door as they entered.

NEW YORK, July 6.-The New York
Times says today that committee OF
American petroleum executives Is going
abroad to discuss world problems of the
oil industry with representatives Of
European interests.
Revision Of export prices, the elimina-
ton Of friction between American and
foreign oil interests and Worldwide
curtailment Of production are the chief
subjects of discussion.
One member of the committee, r. C.
Holmes, president Of the Texas Corpo-
ration. Is alreadv en- route to Europe,
and James Moffett, vice president o1
the Standard Oil Co. Of New Jersey
and George p. Whaley. president Of the
Vacuum OIL Co., are booked to sail or
the Aquitania Sunday night.
Seek Export Price Agreement.
The primary object of the conference
is an attempt to reconcile differences
between American and European inter-
estS over the question Of gasoline export
prices. An increase in the basic export
price Is opposed by European producers
Conferences will be held with Sil
Henri Deterding, managing director Of
the Royal Dutcn smell group, SH .JOnn
Cadman, head of the British-controllec
Anglo-Persian Oil Co.. and offlcials OF
the Anglo American Oil Co., and with
other leaders of the industry In Eng
land, France and Germany.
Last Summer Walter @. Teagle, presi-
dent Of the Standard Oil Co. Of New
Jersey, met Sir Henri Deterding, s.:
John Cadman and other European oil
leaders In Scotland. where a series Of
conversations regarding world condi-
tons Of the industry were held.
Search for Oil Indicated.
A subsequent agreement brought
about by the American Petroleum In
Stitute TO curtail 1929 production TO the
1923 level was abandoned when the
Federal Oil Conservation Board refused
to approve 1t. Further efforts to solve
the conservation problem were made al
conference of governors Of on-pro-
ducing States and leaders Of the In
dustry held at Colorado Springs last
month. No definite action was taken.
An intensified competitive search fol
oil Is indicated by the steady increase
In production in the United States
which last week reached a new peak
of 2,S15,40O barrels, gain Of $4,000
barrels over the previous week end.

public at large. We did so in our

r. lis highness, the Emperor Of
II Japan is on tour OF the south
NNV ern and western parts OF his
Il i realm and In consequence the
plans so carefully made for our
own progress through the same region
are somewhat diSayranged. We cut
short our stay In Osaka III order 20 avoid
reception Of the imperial party at the
commercial metropolis. That was graft
flying to us, as have indicated hereto
fore, inasmuch as Kyoto is far more
agreeable as stopping place than the
busy town on the coast. Now 1t turns
out that Kobe will be so preoccupied
with the reception to his imperial mai
esty on Friday as to be able to give US
what it. regards as inadequate attention,
and besides, If we went to Kobe tomor-
row for a days stay we should have to
hurry out on Friday morning, inasmuch
as the streets will be closed to tramc
after an early hour. SO we have just
held a meeting, and decided by formal
vote, unanimously, to ask Kobe to excuse
us for the present and to allow US to be
received" when we return from For
mosa In July. That means that we stay
here, for the most part. until Saturday
morning, when we entra1n to go straight
through to ShimonoSeki, there to take
the steamer for Korea.
Some Of our party will not adhere
strictly to this program, but will go on
to Kobe on personal errands and mis-
Sions, either returning here before Sat-
urday or joining the main body Satur-
day morning in the passage through
Kobe. It Is assured that we all get to
Korea Sunday morning.
