EXPRESS OFFICE ROBBED BY THREE MEN OF $18,000 Two Bandits Escape on Train, Third Is Captured by Railway Company Employes. By the Associated Press. CHICAGO, January 3.—The Amerl- can Railway Express office at the La Salle street terminal was robbed of $18,000 by three men yesterday, two of whom escaped on a departing New York Central train. The third was captured by station employes and later identified by police as Louis Berardi, a companion of Carl Fontana, leader of a gang that has been implicated in a number of rob- beries hers.

Lead and Copper Output Increased in 1924. Gains in both lead and arsenic pro- duction were made in the United States during 1924, with arsenic pro- duction and sales breaking all previ- ous records, the Geological Survey announced yesterday. Lead mining made a gain of 8 per cent, and lead smelt- ing and refining a gain of 15 per cent, while zinc mining and smelting re- mained nearly stationary. Copper production also broke all previous records, except those for the years during the World War. The butput from domestic sources during the year was 1628,000,000 pounds, compared with 1,435,000,000 pounds in 1923, an increase of more than 13 per cent. Production of new refined copper from domestlo Sources was about 1,764,000,000 pounds, compared with 1,464.000,000 pounds in 1923. In 1924 the production of new refined copper from domestic and foreign sources amuonted to about 2,293,000,000 pounds. The importance of the cotton tex- tile industry to Britain may be gath- ered from the fact that the mills of Lancashire contribute ahout one-fifth of the total exports from the British Isles. Directly concerned in the In- dustry are about 600,000 men and women—about two women to each man. Of the world’s spindleage, Lan- cashire and its immediate viclnity hold two out of every five.

SOFIA, Bulgaria, December 14.— Bulgaria is plunging into a hard winter, said Premier Alexander Tsan- koff recently to the Assoclated Press. “The feeding of the country is a grave problem,” he continued. “Although we grow wneat, we have had a short crop, and also we have had to tyrn over large quantity of grain to Jugoslavia under the restitution treaty. “We are trying to develop granary In southern Bulgaria,™ new the 1925—PART 1. premier went on to say, “but the money 1is lacking for development. Our payments to the allies amount to 157,000,300 leva annually, and we are meeting them fully and promptly. The support of the reparational and mil- itary commissions alone costs us 30,- 000,000 leva. To Serbia we are paying 116,000,000 annually, in addition to her share of the general reparations. There is nothing left for improve- ments of any kind, either agricultural, rallway or educational. “And one of our most distressing burdens at the present time, as winter approaches, is_the constant flow of refugees from Macedonia, Thrace and the Dobrudja. The shortage of food and of money makes this problem pe- cullarly dlstressing. “We are doing our best to prevent turther depreciation of the lev, which is now stabilized at 137 to the dollar.
