Oldtlme Offender Now In Custody at Monroe, Mich., Charged With 3)30,000 Theft. WASHINGTON, July 1. F. El McMillen, chief Inspector of the Postoffice Depar ment, was today notified of the capture and arrest at Monroe, Mich., of Charles Stevens, alias Charles Savage, a negro, in connection with the recent robbery at Kansas City, Mo., of a $50,000 through registered pouch of mail from Los An geles to New Tork City. The negro was Identified by a photo graph and officials of the Postoffice De partment assume that he is the man wanted for the alleged robbery. A re ward of $3000 was offered by the Depart ment for the arrest and convlotion of the perpetrator. Inspector will be sent to Monroe. The negro, who is about 30 years of age. will be taken to Kansas City for trial. The mail Douch. which was Btolen at the transfer point in Kansas City, had been already recovered. .Stevens, it is said, served a sentence of six years for the robbery of mall at Salt Lake City and Portland, Or., and once waa arrested in connection with a $10,000 diamond ring robbery at Portland, Or. The nearo known as Charles Savage, who was arrested in Michigan yesterday on a charge of robbing the mails, is believed to be the same Savage who par ticipated in a number of robberies in this city about seven years and who waa but a short time ago released from the Fed eral prison at McNeils Island, Wash., where he served two years for robbing a mail pouch at the Union Depot in Portland. Previous to this robbery Savage, to gether with Kelly Wiley, another negro, participated In the robbery of several rooms at the Hotel Portland. Wiley was convicted on his own confession and sentenced to three years in the Oregon Penitentiary. At the expiration of this sentence, he drifted to Seattle and was arrested at -that place while robbing a saloon, and is now serving a three-year term at Walla Walla. Through a technicality Savage escaped conviction in the Hotel Portland robbery case and managed to escape from the courtroom before the Portland detectives could arrest him on one of several other counts they had against him. He fled to Salt Lake City, where he became in volved In other shady transactions and was shortly afterward arrested at Den ver for robbery. During the time he spent in Salt Lake he became entangled with a colored woman and this caused his supposed wife, Frankie Savage, also well known to the Portland police, to go to Denver and testify against him. Her testimony assisted materially in convict ing him. Frankie Savage was brought back from Montreal. Canada, with Sav age, by Detective Joe Day at the time of the Portland Hotel robbery. After serving his sentence In Colorado, Savage was brought back to Portland by the Postoffice officials and tried and con victed on the charge or robbing the mails at the Union Depot.

But Heavy Payments From New Ap propriations Mean Deficit in July Heavy Draft on Banks. WASHINGTON, July 1. From the Treasury standpoint, the fiscal year Just closed has been most satisfactory. Since about the middle of October last, when the period of money stringency set in and the consequent depression in business began to be felt, there has been a con stant falling off in Government reve nues up to the month Just closed. For June a surplus is shown of nearly $4, 000.000. This fact, however, is not signifi cant, as June Is unfailingly a surplus month, largely due to the fact that it Is the closing month of the fiscal year, when appropriations gradually reach the point of exhaustion. The month of June, 1907. showed a surplus of approximately $11,000,000 and every preceding June for many years past has shown a large surplus. As June uniformly : shows a surplus. July as certainly shows a deficit. Nearly all appropriations begin to be available on the first of July and this year Treasury officials are looking forward to a deficit larger than . usual and, while they are not willing at this time to express an opinion as to its size. It is believed that $20,000,000 for the one month would be a conservative estimate, wltn a chance of its being considerably larger. The amount of cash now In the Treasury vaults and available to meet expendi tures Is about $70,000,000. ' In addition to this, there Is on deposit with National Iviianks about $1B3.R44.000, which Is at all J times subject to call by the Secretary. A considerable portion of this sum is likely to be called into the treasury within the next few days and, while Mr. Cortelyou has not indicated the amount, it Is thought ti will be less than $50,000,000. PERS0NALMENTI0N. Sam Kaufman, of Aberdeen, Is regis tered at the Portland, being on his way Eaat. Dr. Ralph A. Fenton. who has been away from the city for the past 10 days, has returned. N. K.
