THIEVES BREAK INTO MONTEREY CLUB AT NIGHT Bind and- Gag Caretaker and Loot House of Apparel Belonging to Members WaTnesboi-o, Pa., Sept. B.—The Monterey Country Club, near Blue Ridge Summit, the favorite moun tain resort, was broken into last night by two thieves, one wearing a uniform, by breaking a lock on one of the dfiora. E. E. Tressler, a caretaker, wlio was sleeping on a lower floor, was awakened by the noise of footsteps on the upper floor. He secured his revolver and was creeping down the stairway to investigate, when near the door that gave entrance to the room, he had a flashlight thrown on him and a gun pushed in his face. He was told that if ho made an outcry he would be ehot. The thieves Tressler .what he was doing in the building any way. He told them he had a right to be there as he was the care taker and had a bedroom there. They would not believe Mr. Tress ler's story until he took them to his room to verify his assertion. Then the robbers took a sheet from the bed and, tearing it into shredo, they placed Mr. Tressler in a chair and tied him fast, also tying band ages over his mouth. It was sev eral hours before he was able to re lease himself and he then notified officials of the club of the robbery and they in turn called up police headquarters in Waynesboro and Hagerstown, asking that officers ap prehend the thieves. The thieves carried off a lot of sweaters, shoes, trousers and other articles belonging to the members of the club who are spending tho summer on the mountain. • Attack Parcel Post and Mail Service Washington, Sept. 6.—Attacks on the policy of the Post Office Depart ment as to rural mall delivery and parcel post service, were made late yesterday before tho House Com mittee on Expenditures in the Post Office Department. _ W. D. Brown, editor of R. F. D. News, and counsel for rural carriers, charged that the lengthening of rural routes had been ordered in discriminately throughout the coun try, with the result that patrons got poor service and carriers were made to undergo additional hardships without adequate compensation. Routes that were twenty-four miles formerly have been increased in length to thirty miles. The theory of the department, Mr. Brown said, is that this enables the mails to be delivered to more per sons at the same cost as formerly. He declared, however, that patrons on the twenty-four mile route, who formerly had mail brought close to their door, now must walk half a mile or a mile to get it. Carriers are forced to make the longer route for the same money as the old. Twenty-four miles make a route sufficiently long for a day's trip, Mr. Brown said. He pointed out that I while carriers can use automobiles | in summer and make the route they must be prepared to use other ve hicles in winter weather. Until very recently the parcel post system failed to measure up to the arguments made for Its adoption, that it would help in carrying farm products to the cities. This was attributed to failure of the depart ment to use proper methods for transporting goods. Two reasons were given, first, the rigid require ments made for packing, and, sec ond, the system of handling. Perish able articles were dumped in a sack indiscriminately, resulting in their damage and making farmers and patrons disappointed with the re sults. Mr. Brown went into a criticism of the department for the way routes have been marked out over the country. He said reports to him were that local communities were not consulted when routes were changed, some one in the de partment marking out a route on a map without regard to road or other conditions. He admitted, in reply to questions by Representative Humphreys, Democrat, of Missis sippi, that the department made changes whenever necessary.

Wilson & Co. and the Cudahy Packing Company—will be pre sented to a grand Jury in Chicago, beginning September 15, Attorney General Palmer announced. Tho proceedings against tho packers are based on the findings of the Federal Trade Commission in its recent report on the investi gation into the meat packing indus try of the United States, which found that "the power of the Big Five in the United Sates has been and is being unfairly used to mani pulate livestock markets: restrict interstate and international supplies of food and control the prices of dressed meats and other foods."

Yester day in most stores it was impossible to buy more than one or two pounds of the granulated sugar. Many of the smaller stores have had none at all for almost a week, but all the dealers ir. the city are confident that a day or so will see the arrival of the detas'ed carloads. The shortage in the city has been hastened by the fact that ten days ago the surrounding counties bcg'an to feel the near famine. At once au j tomobiles from York. Adams and I Cumberland counties came into Har l'ir.burg and bought sugar by tho hun dred-pound sack. Granulated sugar is the only kind which is short, however, and many families are buying brown and soft "A" grades. Uncertain railroad fa cilities are blamed for the delay.

B.—That the death of his brother, niece and nephew, who were burned to death June 22 in a fire that destroyed the old homestead of Conrad Staub, at Sedom Seen, a hamlet near here on the Wabash Railroad, was the re sult of a plot to obtain money through tire insurance to purchase a large farm, is the startling alle gation made by Joseph Staub, who, in a signed confession before Police Commissioner Walsh, implicates three others, including one of the victims. The alleged plotters planned only the destruction of the homestead, according to Staub's confession, but excessive indulgence in liquor ap parently stupefied them to such an extent that they failed to ascertain whether all members of the family were safely outside the building be fore firing it. After the torch had been applied to the oil-soaked floors it was discovered that George Staub. a brother, and the latter's son and daughter, aged 7 and 4, were sleep ing on the second floor. Efforts to rescue the three were unavailing, as the dwelling was a mass of flames a few minutes after the torch had been applied.
