Destroyed-Cleveland'a 3-Cent Fares.
Mrs. Donald McLean Re-Elected.
Mr. Carnegie Decorated.
Despite the splendid efforts of a
corps of energetic, efficient officials and
thousands of carpenters, masons, ce
ment walk builders and landscape
gnrdners, the JameBtown tercenten
nial exposition will he opened Fri
day unready. Many of the magnifi
cent structures that are to house do
mestic and foreign commercial ex
hibits and shelter the achievements of
the industrial arts are incomplete.
This is acknowledged by the directors
of the exposition with keen regret, yet
it is with the satisfaction that the
sum of what has been done, as com
pared with the unfinished work, forms
a result of which they are justly proud.
In the beauty of the water show,
with its amazing gathering of foreign
fleets representing the most formid
able types of naval fighting machines
of nearly every power of the world,
and In an opening program with Pres
ident Roosevelt in the leading role,
with diplomatic, military and naval
representatives of great and small for
eign nations participating, the public
will have its recompense.
New Governor of Porto Rico.
Regis H. Post has been Inaugurated
governor of Porto Rico In succession of

Island since his appointment to the
position of auditorin 1903. He subse
quently became secretary of Porto

council. His appointment as governor
is generally approved. He is the au
thor of no less than 70 laws for the
insular government, the most Import
ant being the election law, the munici
pal tax law and a law establishing a
commission to study and suppress
tropical anemia.
In his brief Inaugural address Gov
ernor Post declared nrs intention of
following the policies of his predeces
sor. He strongly advocated better
transportation facilities from the In
terior to the coast to relieve the farm
ers of the present ruinous freight rates
to the markets. He said he would
strive to keep the judiciary fair and
impartial, and he recommended the
extension of educational advantages.
He made no reference to citizenship

amination of the little lad, and romped
with him for half an hour, but
he became thoroughly convinced tlu.t
the boy Is not Horace Marvin ind so

accompanied him.
The Mechanlcville clew Is the only
definite trace Mr. Marvin has been
able to find. Allen, who was arrested
as the suspected ahdurlor, is to he tak
en to Cntskill to answer to the charge

S LOST
Charles F.Gondolf Charged with
Havi.ig Some of Them.
Bonds Specified Are 85 Out of 200
That Were Missing-Complaint Stat
ed That These Bonds Were Nego
tiated by the New Amsterdam Bank
For Accused Sept. 23, 1906.
New York, April 23. Charles F.
flondolf, who was arrested last week
during search for the missing bonds
believed to have been taken by Will
lam F. Walker, the fugitive treasurer
of the savings bank of New Britain,
Conn., was held in $20,000 bail for trial
in police court.
Gondolf was arrested last Thurs
day and held In $20,000 bail for exam
ination. An effort was made by his
lawyer to get him out on ball, but the
district attorney objected to the secur
ities offered.
When brought before a magistrate
yesterday Gondolf was confronted
with a complaint signed by Charles
B. Oldershaw, secretary of the New
Britain bank, charging him with hav
ing in his possession stolen bonds to
the amount of $85,000, knowing them
to have been stolen. The only wit
nesses examined were Mr. Oldershaw
and Charles H. Noble, bank commis
sioner of Connecticut, who made an
examination of the New Britain bank
on Aug. 1. 190G, and again In the early
part of March, 1907.
Mr. Oldershaw said he had made a
statement of the bonds held by the
bank on Aug. 1, 1900, but had not
seen the bonds mentioned in the com
plaint since June 1 of that year,
when the coupons were payable. He
was not sure that they were In the
bank vaults after June 1, but knew
they were gone on Feb. 12, 1907, when
the disappearance of the bonds was
noted, three days after Walker disap
peared. Mr. Oldershaw testified fur
ther that bonds in the New Britain
bank were In the custody of .Walker.
They were kept in a vault and no one
except Walker knew the combination,
so far as he was aware.
He said there was another copy of
the combination In a sealed envelope
in the possession of the president of
the bank but this had never been open
ed to his knowledge. Walker, he said,
was responsible for all the securities
In the possession of the bank.
The bonds specified in the complaint
were 85 out of 200 that were missing
from the bank vaults. They represent
ed a par value of $85,000, but are said
to have been worth more than that.
The complaint stated that these bonds
were negotiated by the New Amster
dam bank for Gondolf on Sept. 23,
1906. Officials of the New Amsterdam
bank were in court to Identify Gon
dolf as the man who brought them to
the bank but they were not called to
the stand, as Gondolf's lawyer waived
examination.
Bank Examiner Noble testified to
having gone over the securities of the
bank on Aug. 1, 1906, but took no
memorandum of the numbers of the
bonds so they could be Identified by
him. He said he took the list made
out by tho bank and simply checked it
oft, making n personal examination of
each security to see that It was really
on hand.
He did not take down the numbers
hut said there were bonds of the
Chicago, St. Paul & Omaha 6 per cents
In the bank at the time. He was not
prepared to say that the bonds re
ported missing were the same ones
he checked off.
At the conclusion of Noble's testi
mony Gondolf was held In $20,000 bail
for trial. In making out the formal
complaint, Gondolf refused to answer
any questions. Ho was returned to
prison in default of bail.
Portion of Missing Bonds Recovered.
New York, April 23. A portion of
the bonds alleged to have been taken
from the Trust Company of America
by William O. Douglas, who is under
arrest on a charge of larceny, were re
covered In an apartment in the Man
hattan club, according to Oakley
Thome, president of the Trust Com
pany of America.
The club officials refused to either
affirm or deny the story, the detectives
were very secretive about the matter.
It was said that Mrs. Douglas had
disappeared and in consequence her
friends became exercised over her ab
sence. She was found last night,
however, at the home of her parents
Brooklyn.
Thele were rumors of possible addi
tional arrests, but the detective
bureau denied having taken such ac
tion. Glmbel'i Body Taken to Philadelphia.

TRIAL OF BLACK HAND MEN.
13 Case of 8hootlng, 13 of Conspiracy
and Six of Dynamiting.
Wllkes-Barre, April 23. More than
a score of foreigners charged with be
ing members of the "Black Hand" so
ciety and responsible for many crimes
In this vicinity, were placed on trial
here. Thirteen cases of shooting with
attempt to kill, 13 of conspiracy, six
of dynamiting and two of robbery by
threats and menaces are charged
against the men who are alleged to be
the leaders of the "Black Hand."
Hundreds of foreign families In this
section have for several years lived In
a state bordering on terror as a result
of threats which In many cases have
been followed up with murder.
The Pennsylvania constabulary has
given much attention to the "Black
Hand." The men on trial were ar
rested in February at the Instance of
District Attorney Salesberg. Thirty
two men were captured, and all but 10,
fc'bo were released after habeas corpus
proceedings, were held without ball.
The men who exposed the personnel
of the society are Charles Salvatore
and Joseph Ritz of Browntown. The
persecution of these men began in the
early part of last year, when a letter
was slipped under their door demand
ing $500, lest the entire Ritz family de
sired to be annihilated.
The principal witnesses In the cases
have been placed under ball to appear,
and families that were driven away by
the society's persecutions were brought
back as witnesses by the district at
torney from Buffalo, Rochester and
many other cities.
