BOLD BURGLAR CAPTURED.
He Was Trying to Knter the Homo of
H. II. Welles. .
Yesterday about noon there was
some excitement around West River
street. A man had been caught break
ing Into the house of H. H. Welles,
Jr. The police were telegraphed for and
the man was taken Into custody. He
said his name was Frank Charles, and
that he boarded with Mrs. Williams
on North TOver street.
Peter Murphy, the florlsit for W. L.
Conyngham, noticed him lurking
around, and had been' keeping a quiet
lookout. Watching when Mr. Murphy
went to dinner, he sneaked to Mr.
Welles back yard, worked the Iron
screen loose, but could not open the cel
lar window. Finally getting reckless
he smashed the glass with a stone.
The crash was heard by Peter Mur
phy's brother, who gave the alarm, and
both ran for the house. The house
breaker, who had got Inside, saw the
intent of the pursuers and quickly
clambered out and ran down West
River street, but Peter Murphy caught
him Jusnt In front of E. H. Klrby's new
residence. He was 'given a hearing last
night and was held for court.
THE COOL CASE.
It Is Amicably Settled and tho Funeral
Will Take Place Today.
Santitary Officer Evans, who was de
tailed on Wednesday to Investigate the
case wherein Mrs. William H. Cool
charged her father-in-law with refusing
to give up the body of her husband, who
died at the hospital Tuesday evening,
made a thorough investigation and
found (hat the father of the dead man
had taken It upon himself to see that
the remains were propertly burled be
cause he knew the wife had no money
to pay the necessary expenses.' Mrs.
Cool and her children are at liberty to
see the remains whenever and as often
as she may desire and arrangements
have already been made for she and
her children to attend the funeral. The
"fact of Mrs. Cool being a Catholic and
her husband's parents Protestants has
nothing to do with the case. The fu
neral will take place this afternoon at
2 o'clock from the residence of Mr. Cool,
on Stanton street, with interment In the
cfty' cemetery.
A Fatal Accident.
(Malcolm Connor, aged 13 years, and a
son of Elijah Connor, of Mill Creek, was
Instantly kllied about 7 o'clock last
Wednesday evening at Mill Creek sid
ing by having his head caught between
the bumpers of two cars. The boys
were playing around the elding, un
coupling cars and letting them drop to
the lower end of the siding and try to
couple them as the brakemen do. While
thus playing, young Connor was caught
between the bumpers of the cars and
his neck broken, killing him Instantly.

ceny of two feats. Ha had been em
ployed at McDonald's livery, and ah

POOL ROOM RAIDED.
But Whea the Offloera Arrived the Birds
Hod Flown.
The Electric News and Transfer com
pany, who, it is alleged, sell pools on
metropolitan horse races, was raided
by the police yesterday afternoon, but
somehow or other the gamblers had re
ceived a "tip" on the proposed raid,
and when the police arrived, the door
was locked and the proprietors were
gone, so that Chief Brlggs and Officers
Relster and Mulherrln only got a little
pleasant exercise out of the trip.
A warrant was worn out against the
place by a hotel man before the mayor
yesterday allternoon and when the po
lice got to the place they found evi
dence of a hasty exit. The telegraph
Instrument was still ticking merrily,
the black boards were filled with hier
oglyphics of the races, the floor was
strewn with papers, showing the un
luckly bets. But that la ell there was;
no man could be found, although the
place was thoroughly searched. The
polite were chagrined at the escape of
the proprietors, although they took It
good naturedly. The room bore un
mistakable evidences of gambling, and
it is not likely that the business will
be resumed, at least not for the pres
ent. SIXTH ANNUAL REPORT.

Non-partisan Judiciary.
Th news that came yesterday to the
effect that Governor Hastings had ap
nninted Lvman H. Bennett for Judge of
Luzerne county, places the local Dem
ocracy In a bad fix. After all their

ilinlnrv." Mr. McLean's candidacy is de
cidedly Inconsistent Mr. Bennett will
mate a good Judge, and It is no sur
prise to the Republicans that Governor
Hastings has thus recognized the
wishes of the party in Luzerne.

The city saloon-keepers are up in
arms at the mayor's charge that the sa
loons are open here on Sunday. They

STATE OP THE GOLD RESERVE
It Is Now Perilously Near the $ 100,000,
000 Line and May Bo Drawn Below
It Greenbacks Hoarded ta Be
Exchanged for Gold.
Washington. Aug. 7 Within the past
fortnight nearly $0,000,000 in gold has
been withdrawn from the treasury. The
bond syndicates week ago replaced $2,
000.000 of this by exchanging gold for
greenbacks, but has not since repeated
the performance. The treasury has se
cured considerable gold in ordinary
channels, still the reserve has been re
duced in round numbers from $107,500.
000 to $104,500,000. This does not Include
$1,000,000 in gold ordered withdrawn to
day. The reserve therefore stands now,
to be exact, at $103,468,104. It Is antici
pated that about $2,000,000 more will be
withdrawn this week, leaving the re
serve within $1,500,000 . of $100,000,000.
When It falls to that point it could be
easily reduced below $100,000,000.
As they have always done when gold
Is withdrawn, treasury officials say
that the wlthdrayals will soon cease
and be counterbalanced by . Imports
which are about due. There are sev
eral things militating against gold im
ports. First, the balance of trade Is
now against the United States. The
new tariff law fosters imports and re
duces exports. For several months the
Imports have been exceeded by exports,
necessitating gold exports to pay bal
ances. There are thousands of tourists
abroad with large letters of credit,
which have to be met by American
banks with gold. The syndicate has
apparently taken its hands off, re
gardless of Its Implied contract to
maintain the reserve, and Is permitting
thlrcs to take their natural course,
which is for gold exports. The syndi
cate maintains its rate of exchange so
high that It Is cheaper to export gold
than to purchase exchange. So strong
Is the export flow of gold that if the
syndicate maintained the reserve Its
profits would be eaten up. The combi
nation being a money-making and not
ellemosynary one, It declines to do so.
The Job appears to have been too large
for It to manage.
Tho Syndicate's Scheme
There undoubtedly a hoarding of
greenbacks to draw gold form the treas
ury. Greenbacks are little In circula
tion now, but national bank notes are.
The syndicate has probably been hoard
ing greenbacks to protect Itself and get
gold. It has an option on bonds Issued
before Oct. 1. There may, therefore, be
a systematic effort through Its agents
to so Impair the reserve as to necessi
tate another bond Issue.
The treasury continues making a de
ficit, aggregating for the fisenl year
$13,772,571.75, four times as large as at
the corresponding period last year.
When expenses exceed receipts It, fos
ters gold shipments.
There will probably be large pxporta
tlons of gold for a month. The re
serve may fall to a dangerous figure,
probably considerably below $100,000,000
Unless the syndicate changes Its policy,
prevents gold exports and revenues In
crease and gold comes from abroad,
there Is grave danger of another bond
Issue unless the treasury chooses to let
the gold fall to a level menacing the
maintenance of the parity. In the
meantlmeSecretary Carlisle Is taking a
vacation on the 'great lakes.
A Gome of Bluff.
No doubt the syndicate could stop
the exportation, of gold and thus live
up to their moral agreement with tho
government to do all in their power to
prevent Its exportation. But to do that
Just now would Involve selling of ex
change at a rate which would threaten
to eat Into the profit of the syndicate.
The truth Is, a good deal of expos
tulation and some sentiments which
might be characterized by stronger lan
guage are heard In Wall street because
of the policy of those members of tho
syndicate who control or try to control
the exchange market. The complaint
has been that there Is something of a
dog-ln-the-manger disposition and that
a sort of Invisible cluetias1 baen held
over the brokers, with the Intimation
that it would be brought down with
severity upon their heads If they re
fused to buy exchange and perferred to
take gold from the treasury for export.
That moral threat did avail In Wall
street for a long time and much cu
riosity was displayed by those who
wondered whether It Would avail to any
broker from getting gold from the
treasury. At Ueast, one house, hellevlng
that it was not so much of a club as It
was a bluff, had the temerity to tempt
fate, to decline to buy exchange, and
Instead to take gold from the treasury.
After this house had done so and. It was
seen that the club did not fall others
who had been timorous followed the
example, so that now It seems to have,
been made plain that.jio dire pun
ishment await those who choose' this
course, or, as one of the greater bank
ers put It this morning, "They have
called and found that it was a bluff
game."
Now the question which confronts
the syndicate,. according to Wall street
authorities. Is this: Shall the rates for
exchange be so fixed upon as to make
It worth while for .those who must
have either exchange or gold for export
to buy exchange? I' they are thus
fixed upon It seems probable that there
win be a considerable lessening of the
profits which the syndicate will divide
on the 1st of Oct. or soon after.
