Further inves- tigation showod that the burglar had succeeded in making off with consid- erable cash and a number of other vai- ables. As near as could be ascertained, the robber had secured about $160 worth. $30 of which was in cash. two gold watches. one valued at $75 and the oth- er at 825: a valuable ring m some other jewelry. Constable Allie Allen was at once notified and did his best to capture the guilty party. but so far he has been unsuccessful. When last seen the robber was making for the thick woods which surround the house and although the woods were scoured soon after. darkness came on so quickly that it was impossible to do very much.

A. dy. and under no ”condition will the men, who have been the leaders in the present strike, ever be employed in the factory again. , Mr. Graham ls perfectly sausded that the company. will be, able to open its factory without the aid of the ter- mer employes,.in the event of their re- fusing to come to a settlement on the terms he has proposed. To substan- tiate his statement to the reporter. he produced a telegram received yester- day afternoon. from Mr. Ernst. who is at present on the read for the com. pany. which read as follows: “Rochester. N. Y.. August ill—4‘0 A. A. Graham. South Norwslk Conn: l endorse your action fully. We Will not unionize. Can send you all the men you need. 0. G. Ernst." Mr. Graham further declared that the company Was in no hurry to have orders filled, as in the conservatory in the factory. are nearly half a million cigars. This storage conservatory is lined throughout ’with zinc and while it would burn in case of its catching are. the stock would [not be deranged in the least by having the occur in the building. and to have everything drenched with water. - The company is apparently: fearing that in case of its going out of town for employees. the old workmen will attempt to prevent them freon going to work. To defeat this end the company has made every preparation for pro- tection with the municipal govern- ment. Mr. Graham says that he has the assurance of the city government that he will be fullyprotected in case of trouble. George A. Parsons. clerk of the States Board of Mediation and Arbi- tration. was in town yesterday confer- ring with Mr. Graham and the em- oloyees. but apparently from the- view point of the strikers, his visit was without fruit. as the employees are determined on their original purpose to become union workmen. A reporter saw some of the employ- one this morning, and asked them if in the event of the company getting men from out of town to take their places. they would try by force to keep the out of town men from going to ,work. They replied that they intend‘ ed to do nothing of the kind and would be on hand simply to lay the case of the strikers'beiore the new comers, as they believed that the company will be unable to get any new men to come here unless they misrepresent the case tothem. The strikers have continual. outed with all the leading newspapers in this part of the country. including the New York. apers. Papers printed in German. En iisli.

Ketchum’s splendid stallion was great enough to lead the way from wire to wire in 2:0354. and to distance his defeated rival in the second heat. The struggle for supremacy was a superb one in the first heat. rand'the great crowd itself broke the record for enthusiasm in cheering both winner and loser. it was the largest throng ever assembled at the Brighton track and was one. of the largest that have witnessed a trotting race on any track in the country. Estimates of the at- tendnnce varied from llftcen thousand to twenty-five thousand. but it prob- able that something like twenty mou- sand persons. inside and outside the enclosure. saw the contest.

They were surprised. too. to see The Abbott show such speed without apparent effort. "Wait till Gears makes his drive; he‘ll beat Cresceus home! " shouted the admirers of the New York horse, as the rival trotters struck the upper turn. (risers began his drive near the five ‘ furlong pole. The excitement was in- tense as The Abbott began to lessen the gap of three lengths which had separated him from the stallion at the half mile pole. The Abbott Gains Ground. Oeers was sitting as still as a statue. inspiring his great horse to greater effort in that unseen way peculiar to the “silent man ifrom Tennessee." Cresceus’ white booted legs were flashing too and fro with the rapidity and precision of a trip hammer as he swung into view at the head of the homestretch. and he was trotting a storm, yet The Abbott continued to gain. He had been trailing at the pole until the homestrotch was reached, but Gecrs took him out into second horse place as he struck the straight work and then began a finish which thrilled twenty thousand onlookers to a state of excitement bordering on frensy. Halfway down the stretch the Ab. bott's none was at the wheel of Ores. cous’ aulky and he was still gaining.
