The foreman of the grand jury which brought the firat indictments has been driven abso- lately out of busimess in this ecity, while the unspeakable Schmitx has had a golden stream of patronage flowing into his office.”—From sermon of Rev. Carl Warner, pastor of Trinity Meth- odist Episcopal chureh. In a vigorous sermon on the graft situation delivered yesterday at Trinity Methodist Episcopal church, Rev. Carl Warner, the pastor, said that the forces of civic corruption had sought to avenge themselves in an attempt to destroy the business of B. P. Oliver, the real estate broker, foreman of the Oli- ver grand jury which first brought in- dictments again Abe Ruef, the dis- graced Schmitz and other corrupters of the city government. Juror’s Business Ruined Dr. Warner did mot mention Oliver by name, but his inference was direct, as he said: “The foreman of the grand jury which brought the first indictments has been driven absolutely out of business in this city, while the unspeakable Schmitz nas had a gclden stream of patronage flowing inte his office.” That startling statement was made in a sermon on the subject, “The Sta- bility of Governme it." In citing the case of Oliver the clergy- man voiced repor which have been current in real estate circles. Oliver Admits Logics B. P. Oliver was reticent last evening when asked concerning the remarks of the pastor. He said that he did not care to make a statement concerning any loss which his business might have suffered through his connections with the grand jury which first brought indictments against the or- ganized grafters under the Schmitz- Ruef regime unless he had proof to substantiate his assertions. He ad- mitted that he had lost business and that he had heard the reports that his business had seriously suffered, but he added that it was an exazgeration to say that he had been driven out of business. IN NEW YORK HOME “I have lost business,” said Oliver, “but I ca not say positively that it has been on account of my connection with the anti-graft movement. I may have my suspicion, but I have no positive proof, and for that reason I do not wish to make any statements that can not be properly supported. Difficult to Do Duty “It may be that in some instances attempts have been made to injure me in my business because of my connection with the grand jury. How- ever, I have been here a long time and there is no likellthood that T will not be abl to provide a living for myself and my family in the business which I have always followed. “I will say this, though, that my experience in civic matters has taught ‘me that it is exceedingly difficult for a man to do his honest duty in a posi- tion of public trust unless he is pos- sessed of independent means. T have found that for a man to fight for the right, opposing interests with which he may have business relations, means that he will suffer pecuniary loss. As far as I am concerned, however, I have no fear for myself.” sk i L R POSSES SEARCH IN VAIN FOR MISSING CHILDREN Little Boy and Girl Mysterious- ly Vanish From Home LATROBE, Pa., May 2.—Posses who have been searching for the last 48 hours for Emma and Alvin Blaugh, 7 and b years old, who disappeared mys- teriously from the home of their par- ents, Mr. and Mrs. Michael Blaugh, have about given up hope of finding them.

In the con- fiict, which lasted for several minutes, ome of the pirates was mortally wounded while rowing in the bay in a stolen boat; his comrade was captured, {and the other member of the gang es- caped by land and water. Invade District in Launch The thieves invaded Winehaven, which is about four miles from Richmond, in a launch at ¢ o'clock today. They were seen to land, five strong, and Mahnkee observed them stealing wine. As a peace officer he went (o the wa- ter fromt to stop the thieving. Threats followed from the five men. Finally he threw back his coat to dlsplay a star as his badge of authority in interfering. This act was the signal for shoeting. One of the pirates immediately drew a revolver and emptied it at the plucky officer. Six shots were fired, one strik- ing Mahnkee in the left leg above the knee. He fell backward, while his as~ sailant continued to shoot umtil the pistol was empty. About 25 men em- ployed at the refinery at Wnehaven saw the fire chief go down. Posse Joins Battle An alarm was raised that bay pirates had killed Mahnkee, and this began the general conflict. Nearly all the em- ployes of the refinery were at the Winehaven hotel, a short distance from whkere Mahnkee fell. Obtaining re- volvers, knives and rifles, the refinery workers rushed to the shore and sur- rounded the spot, where they were jolned by deputy marshals. This attack drove the five bay pirates into cover. Two leaped into the launch in which the gang had come to Wine- bhaven, one ran down the shore to a road and succeeded in eluding pursuit by reaching underbrush, which comn- cealed him until he was over the brow of a Bill. The two men who had reached the launch were fired at by the pursuers, but speeding up the craft made around San Pablo point hefore they could be reached or hal!'fi Pirates Hide in Bushes This separated the two men remain- ing near the warehouse from the com- federates, and the chase was centered on these fugitives. One of them was supposed to have been the man who shot Mahnkee, although that 1 still uncertain. Seeing escape fromx the inland cut off, the two pirates ran down the shore for a considerable dis- tance and hid behind a clump of bushes. While the refinery workers were surrounding the two fugitives an alarm was sent to Richmond for help, and Marshal Gregory started for Wine- haven, which is distaut from the main part of the town. Before he reached the place the two ambushed men had been driven from cover by shots, and had raced toward the water fromt. The pirstes came across a rowboat, with one oar. They leaped in and pushed off from the shore, enabled by thelr lead to get almost beyond pistol range before their pursuers had reached the point where the boat had been moored. Eighteen Shots Fired But they were handicapped by have ing only one oar and made slow speeds Also the tide was against them. Finally one of the refinery men, armed with a small caliber rifle, hit one of the pirates in the back. The wounded man fell and both pirates threw their arms overboard. Marshall Gregory, who had arrived, procured a rowboat and took both men into custody. The wounded pirate was ROME, May 2.—While on the Red sea April 17 en route to Mombasa Theo- dore Roosevelt wrote a’letter to Car- dinal Satolli, in which he sald: “I look forward to renewing our ac- quaintance a year hence, when I shall present my respects to the holy father, to whom I beg of you to give my personal regards.” taken to the Abbott sanitarium. where it was found that his wound probably would be mortal. The wounded fire chief, Mahnkee, had been taken to Richmond and to the hospital. His injuries consisted of a revolver wound in the left leg and shock. Attempts to identity the two cap- tives falled, both refusing to talk.
