Nervy Procedure Last Saturday Night
by Robbers of Whom There Is no
Trace Only Secured Thirty-eight
Dollars.
Adams bad a session with two bold
highwaymen on Saturday evening, In
which pistols, gags and midnight
cries featured most predominantly.
.About 8:30 Saturday evening, Har
vey Itlcliardson, of the firm of Rich
ardson Brothers, prepared to close
the store for tho night. The store
building Is a large brick structure
with old-fashioned Iron shutters on
the windows In front and rear. Mr.
Richardson closed the Bhuttcrs on
the front windows and locking the
front door, proceeded to mo nacK m
tho room, whero he started to close
tho shutters on the back windows.
As he stopped out of the door no
was commanded by two men to throw
up his hands.

son Into tho offlce by forcing the door.
Here luchardson ran neninu xne saie
and attempted to draw his gun, when
the robbers shot him tnrougn tne
third flncer of his right hand. Rich
ardson's gun waB struck up and dls-,
charged Into the colling.
Bound and Gaggtd.
Tim robbers overpowered the store
keeper and bound him securely with
some cotton clothesline and large
binding twine. Then, tearing a small
curtain from the office window, they
used It as a gag, binding It in place
with two large bandana handker
chiefs, one over the gag and one over
tho eyes.
The robbers now turned tneir at
tention to the safe, which had not
vet been closed. From It and tho cash
register they took leaving oeninu
a couplo of checks. They then blew
out the lamp and taking an Iron box
from the safo and Richardson's pistol,
wont out of the back door, closed the
shutters and made off In the dark-noss.
Mr. Richardson, left alone In the
store, rolled to the safe door ana
managed to work tho gag from his
mouth by rubbing It against the cor
ner of the safo door. Having cleared
his voice he rolled to the front of
the store, whore he succeeded In at
tracting the attention of a cnance
passerby after having been bound
about half nn hour.
The robbers were wise in their ac
tions, and took only what could not
be identified. They left behind tho
checks and the proprietor's watch.
Tho iron box they carried away witn
them was of no value, as It contained
Insurance papers.
Sheriff T. D. Taylor went to Adams
yesterday and spent the day in look
ing for somo clue to the robbers, but
could find none. One man was ar
rested at Helix, but told a satisfactory
story and was released. The night
was very dark and the robbers were
seen but indistinctly by Mr. Richard
son, before they bound his eyes, so
that at tho present time the authori
ties have no clue upon which to work.

Prunes In California.
Thc California Fruit Grower, April
18, reports the prune situation In that
state. as follows:
The prune market, contrary to ex
pectations, shows weakness In place
of the hardening tendency naturally
looked for, owing to the unfavora
ble reports from the large producing
districts. Reports received at these
offices during the week would indicate
that the prune crop of this state at
the present time Ib about 40 per cent
short as compared with that of last
season. In the lower San Joaquin
valley six of the largest orchards, ag
gregating upwards of 3000 acres, re
port the shortage to bo fully BO por
cent as compared with last year. The
trees were overloaded last season.
henco It Ib but natural that they
should take a rest this year. Condi
tions indicate that the fruit will run
to large sizes.
Old prunes are freely offered on
2V4 and 2c basis for outside and
Santa Clara respectively. A firm of
fer of 2c for outside stock would be
confirmed by some holders but quo
tations are not being generally made
on 2V&c basis.
Exports of prunes from tho United
States for the eight months ended
February 28, amounted to 69,109,646
pounds in 1903, and for the same pe
riod In 1902, the exports were 18,937,
996 pounds, and in the year 1901 but
6,920,888 pounds of prunes went ex
port. In short tho foreign markets
took one-third of last season's crop
at better prices than can be obtained
at present for spot stocks.
