Thieves broke In the east panel of the
ent front window of Herman Leffert's
Jewelry store at 409 West Broadway
Shortly after midnight Saturday and se
cured about $!j00 worth of watches, brooches
and other Jewelry. Most of the stolen
Jewelry, however, waa recovered yesterday
morning, the thieves having; thrown It
way In their flight when pursued by the
officers.
Owing to the lateness Of the hour and the
cold weather but few people were on the
treet at that tlmo of night, but the crash
of the breaking glass attracted the atten
tion of two men on the opposite side of the
treet, and they notified the police. Offi
cers Rue and Lorenzen were hastily sent
to the scene and they arrived In time to see
two men turn the corner of Broadway onto
Fourth street by the Boston store, and ran
south on Fourth etreet. The officers at
once gave chase and on reaching the cor
ner called to the men to halt. One stopped,
rhtle the other continued his flight. The
fellow who halted did se for the purpose of
taking a shot at the officers, but bis aim
wss poor. After firing the shot, which wss
returned by Oncer Lorenzen, the fellow
turned west into the alley. Officer Rue
followed just in time to see the man turn
south down the alley between Main and
Fourth streets and get a shot at him, but
bis bullet went wide of the intended mark.
The fellow then crossed a vacant lot Into
Fourth street and continuing south was
soon lost in the darkness. The officers
failed to get sight of the second man, but
pedestralna who had been attracted by the
shooting stated they had seen a man run
nlng north on Broadway. It is supposed he
ran west through the alley and out onto
Pearl street and then doubled back on
Broadway,
Recover Stolen Goods.
A diamond brooch, valued at $165, was
picked up at the corner of Main street and
Broadway by Eugene Snodgrass. a Western
Union messenger boy, about two hours after
the robbery. With the exception of four
men's watches and a few brooches the re
malnder of the Jewelry stolen was found
yesterday morning in the alley between
Hattenbauer's carriage factory and the bluff
on the north side on Fourth street. It was
discovered by three young lads, Allen Kle
man, Ben Ewlng and Joe Bleslt, who were
assisting Detective Callaghan in the aearch.
In all four watches, twelve watebcases,
Ave scarfptns, several pairs of cuff buttons,
watch fobs and brooches were found at this
place. Ten brooches were found at the cor
ner of Broadway and Fourth street. A new
Improved Colt'a revolver, 41-callber, with
sli cartridges, one of which had been dis
charged, was found in a small shed at the
rear of Hattenbauer's factory. Alongside
of the revolver were about a dozen ' cart
ridges. It is supposed that the man whom the
officers chased down the alley was carry
ing the greater part of the plunder and that
being hard pressed he decided to get rid of
It and the revolver. The police believe that
the fellow after getting onto Fourth street
through the vacant lot made a bee line for
the old carriage factory, which Is unoc
cupied, and after throwing away the
Jewelry and hiding his revolver, as he evi
dently thought, in the Bhed, made bis es
cape by climbing the bank at the rear, and
thus made his way to Bluff street.
The window waa smashed with a heavy
block of wood, which was found afterward
In the gutter in front of the store. The
police are Inclined to the opinion that the
robbers were amateurs at the business,
otherwise they would not have thrown away
the plunder as they did.

Preparing- Library Ordinance.
Owing to the repairs at the library not
being completed the regular meeting of the
library board this afternoon will be held in
the office of the president, M. F. Rohrer,
The most important matter to come before
the board will be the ordinance which is
now being drafted, pledging the city to pro
Tide annually at least $5,000 for the support
of the library so as to secure the donation
of $50,000 for a building from Andrew Car
negie. This ordinance will be submitted to
the city council at its meeting tonight,
when It undoubtedly will be passed by the
unanimous vote of the aldermen.
President Rohrer of the llbrsr) board Is
anxious that the business men who are
prominent in the movement for the organi
sation of a commercial club, and In fact all
Citizens interested In the welfare snd prog
ress of the city, attend the meeting of the
city council tonight and thus by their
presence ratify the action of the aldermen.
The library board baa already received a
number of offers of sites for the proposed
library building, and it Is probable that this
matter will be discussed at the meeting of
the board this afternoon. The general opin
ion is that the building should be located
as near Baylies park as possible. Any atte
faring the park Itself is generally favored.
With the $10,000 levy the board will, it is
expected, not experience sny difficulty in
securing a suitable site.

consider the three ordinances now before
them providing for the placing in under
ground conduits of all telephone, telegraph,
electric light and feed mires of the motor
company within a prescribed area. It Is
expected that the committee, while it may
make some rhsnges In the ordinances, will
recommend their passage In view of the fact
that a petition to this effect has been
signed by over 100 of the leading business
firms and professional men of the city.

MRS. POLY IS LIKELY TO . DIE
Victim of Hasband'a Insane Act Haa
Grown Wore Steadily Since
Shooting:.
MARSH ALLTOWN, la., Jan. 11. (Spe
cial ) Word from Eldora late this evening
states that the condition of Mrs. J. H.
Poley, who was shot by her husband last
night, and who then killed himself, is much
worse and the doctors believe she will die.
A second snd more tl, "rough examination
shows the woman was shot in the upper
part of the arm and that the bullet entered
her left side, passing entirely through her
body and lodging in the ribs. The doctors
fear that the stomach or intestines were
pierced, as the patient has bad severe
hemorrhages of the stomach.
Particulars of the tragedy indicate that
the shooting was the result of domestic
trouble over money affairs. J. H. Poley was
married to Mrs. Saloma Ellsworth about
two years ago. For awhile they lived hap
pily together and then discord arose over
family affairs and money matters. Things
went from bad to worse and about two
weeka ago the couple agreed to separate
and Mrs. Poley nied a petition for a
divorce. It la believed Foley's mind be
came affected by hla troubles and he de
cided to end It all by killing both his wife
and himself.
Poley had a good reputation in this com
munity, but was known to be very close
about money matters. It is also known
that he refused to allow hla wife to keep
her mother and blind brother at hla house
and even refused to allow the blind brother
to visit at their home, and these matters
widened ths breach between them.

ELLIS ISLANDJS IMPROVING
Sargent Says President's Action la
Rapidly Removing Reproach on
Immigration Station.
PHILADELPHIA. Jan. 11. Frank P.
Sargent, commissioner of Immigration, to
night delivered an address to the Jewish
Chautauqua society on "Immigration snd
the Future of Our Country." Simon Wolf
of Washington, president of the Union of
Hebrew Congregations, presided.
Mr. Sargent said in part:
' The large number of persons who seek
a home In this country makes It inevitable
that at times a few cases of Injustice will
arise. It Is the purpose of the bureau
of Immigration to deal fairly with every
case that Is presented. Ellis Island has
been a place for tha harboring of vultures
who preyed upon the Immigrants and peo
ple began to look upon the place as the
hell hole of America. Last April the
president placed a gentleman of his own
selection in charge at the Island. He made
changes In the - administration and -introduced
sanitary measures.
Abuses which had existed for years un
checked were stopped. I don't presume
to say that conditions there today are
Ideal, but we are trying to make them, so.
We are asking congress for IS00.000 for
extensions to buildings and better facil
ities for caring for those who are de
tained. I am opposed to the importation of
any class which tends to lower wages and
standards in America.

HANNA AND PAYNE URGE PEACE PACT
moot Seema Safe la I fan, While Re
sult In Other States la Doabtfal
Owing to Plethora of
Willing Candldatea.
DENVER, Jan. 11. The confusion exist
ing In Colorado as the result of the fight for
a successor to United States Senator Henry
M. Teller Is putzliug even to the most acute
political minds. Mr. Woltjott and bis friends
Insist tbat action to unseat ceHsln demo
cratic members of the house because of al
leged fraud In the ballot and returns be
taken before balloting Is begun on the
senatorshlp. He charges his republican, op
ponents with deliberate delay in this mat
ter because of a deal with the democrats.
In a statement Issued by Mr. Wolcott to
night he says:
Oross frauds, concerning which the evi
dence Is Indisputahle, should lead to the
unseating of seventeen fraudulently elected
democrats In the house.
Every friend of mine, Including the seven
teen members who asked for a caucus, la
anxious to have a speedy vote on unseat
ing these fraudulently elected democrats,
but there is grave danger that no action
will be taken until after the 20th, when
voting on the senatorshlp commences.
If thfc legislature Is made republican on
Joint ballot before a senator Is elected, all
that I or my friends ask Is that he shall
be chosen In free and fair conference or
caucus by the republican members.
The antl-Wolcott republicans have main
tained all along that no deal between the
democrats and the antl-Wolcott forces has
been made, and that they will never vote
for a democrat for United States senator.
Among the several candidates of the anti
Wolcott people, Frank C. Qoudy of Denver
has probably the largeBt . following. Boms
say the split in the republican party will
result In Mr. Teller's return to the senate
and should the contested seats In the house
be given to the democrats tbere is little
doubt that be will be thosen, as he was
endorsed by the democratic state conven
tion and by nearly . all the county conven
tions. However, former Governor Alva Ad
ams of Pueblo looms up as a possibility.
The following telegram has been received
by William Stapleton, editor of the Denver
Republican:
WASHINGTON, Jan. 10. We, in com
mon with all tho friends of the republican
party here, deplore the conditions now ex
isting In the legislature of your state.
Anything that will destroy the prospects
of electing a republican Is deprecated to
the utmost degree. If a remedy can be
found, we most earnestly appeal to those
republicans controlling' the situation to
make the effort, considering above all
else the Interest of the party.

Rival Candldatea Combine.
TOPEKA, Kan. Jan. 11. Willis J. Bailey
will be Inaugurated governor of Kansas at
noon tomorrow.
William E. Btanley, tho retiring gov
ernor, and Congressman Long, both candU
dates for the United States senate, have
combined their forces to. organize the lower
house. The house caucus will meet tomor
row afternoon and it Is believed tonight
that the Long-Stanley combine "Will name
the men who will serve as officers In the
bouse.
This will mean the election of J. T.
Prlngle of Osage county as speaker and the
defeat of Barker, whom Congressman Cur
tis is supporting. n? '
The principal senatorial candidates arer
Congressman Curtis, Ooternor Stanley and
Congressman Long. Tbstore of the repub
lican caucus has not been set. The situation
is uncertain and it Is impossible to pre
dict who will be the successful candidate.
A lOng deadlock may develop and the elec
tion of a "dark horse" Is not Improbable.
Smoot Seems Sure.
SALT LAKE CITY. Utah, Jan. 11.
Everything is In readiness for the opening
session of the fifth general assembly, which
convenes tomorrow. The session will be a
formal one and Governor Wells' message
will not be read till Tuesday.
Nothing definite has been given out by
republican leaders as to the time for hold
ing the senatorial caucus, which will choose
a successor to Senator Rawlins, though
James H. Anderson, chairman of the re
publican state commltteo, said he thought
it would be on Wednesday. It is generally
conceded that Apostle Reed Smoot will
have no difficulty in securing the nomina
tion. United States Senator Rawlins was nom
inated for re-election by the democratic
caucus lte last night. The action, how
ever, was p mere formality, as the repub
licans have overwhelming majorltlea In
both branches of the legislature.
Washington May Act Today.
OLYMPIA, Wash., Jan. II. A republican
successor to Senator George Turner will be
elected by the legislature which convenes
tomorrow. The leading candidates are Levi
Ankeny, the millionaire banker of Walla
Walla; Harold Preston, a well known law
yer of Seattle, and ex-United States Sen
ator John L. Wilson. .
Probably the most Important piece of leg
islation to come up at tbla session will be
a bill to provide for a railroad commission
to be appointed by the governor. Governor
McBrlde championed the railroad commis
sion bill on the stump during his recent
campaign and has snnounced that be will
endeavor to have it passed by the legisla
ture. Preston, In his campaign for the sen
atorshlp, also championed the railroad com
mission bill and consequently has the
hearty support of Governor McBrlde.
Shortly after midnight this morning a
combination of the antl-commlsslon mem
bers waa affected which Insures the election
of Dr. W. II. Hare for speaker of the house.
The anti-commission people are also sup
posed to have control of the senate.
Idaho Democrats Nominate Hawley.

Oregon Result Doubtful.
SALEM, Ore., Jan. 11. Most of the mem
bers of the legislature, which comecea at
noon tomorrow, arrived at the capital
today.
The question of the presidency of the
senate and the speakership of the house
are still undetermined, and It Is understood
that the republicans of both bouses will
hold a caucus tomorrow morning.
At this time C. W. Fulton of Clatsop
county and Governor Geer are the leaders
in the race for United States aenator,
though Jonathan Bourne and Blnger Her
mann are able to control a number of votes.
There is no probability of a caucus csll on
the senatorshlp contest being circulated
until the organization of the legislature la
completed.

Rheumatism
The Proper
Treatment
We advise sufferers from
Rheumatism to eat no sweet
or fatty foods. Leave spices
and coffee alone. Eat spar
ingly of meat but once a
day never pork. Fresh
vegetables are always in or
der. Drink plenty of pure
water and milk. Keep the
bowels regularly open. Keep
the feet warm and dry, and
avoid wet clothing.
At bedtime bathe the af
fected parts freely with
Omega Oil. Then dip a
towel in hot water,- wring it
out, wrap it over the Oil and thus
"steam it in." The hot towel opens
the pores and drives the Oil in better.
When the towel cools, remove it, dry
the parts and put on more Omega Oil.
Then cover the parts with a cloth to
hold the Oil in its place 1 throughout
the night In the morning wash
the parts in warm water, wipe
thoroughly dry, and briskly rub in
some more of the Oil. A thorough,
persistent treatment of this kind will
come pretty near curing any case of
Rheumatism that is curable.
I have suffered with the rheumatism for
seven years and tried most every remedy,
but none gave me relief. A friend told me
of Omega Oil and I bought it, and after
using one bottle I founa great relief. I
continued to use it, and seven bottles have
made me nearly well. M. Saunders,

Police Ansers the Former Inlted

CHEYENNE, Wyo.. Jan. It (Special.)
A letter received today from Lander states
that everything Is quiet at the Indian
agency near there. There is bound to be
factional trouble between the Shoshones
and Arapahoes, sooner or later, however,
The recent arrest of James Toslah, an
Arapahoe, and the action of the Shoshone
Indian police in assisting Deputy t'nlted
States Marshal Joe La Fors has left the
young men of the Arapahoe tribe 4n no
pleasant frame of mind.
It ' develops that La Fors, although a
brave officer and capable of handling a
dozen Indians, had a narrow escape from
death when he was making bis way to the
agency in a buggy with Toatah. A number
of Toslah's companions gave chase. Only
one man wss armed, and he was stopped
while his horse wss at full gallop by Acting
Agent Frank 8. Smith and disarmed. The
Indians were In an ugly mood and but for
the prompt action of Agent Smith, La Fors
might hsve been stoned to death. He
could -probably have killed a number of the
Indians, but tbere were so many that they
would have reached him.
The drunken Indian policeman with whom
Acting Agent Smith had a fight last
Wednesday, and whom Dick 'Washakie,
chief of police, struck on the head with a
alx-sbooter, is ths son of a man who was
killed by old Chief Washakie years ago over
a squaw, and as a result of Chief of Police
Dick Washakie's action the feeling between
the two Xsctlons is naturally Intensified.
