TELLS OF HIS GRIME
Rogers Says Lovell Lured Him
to Kidnap Girl.
WAS TO DIVIDE RANSOM
Captured Criminal Blames Partner
for' Leading Him Into Scheme.
Posse Surrounds Lovell in
Hills Nenr Coalinga.
FRESXO. Cal.. July 1. Grover C.
Rogers, who on Monday evening kidnaped
Krina. the l$-year-old daughter of Adolph
Pomengine. in such sensational fashion
and who was captured late yesterday,
was brought to the county Jail here to
day from Coallnga and told the story of
his crime.
Hb says that Tony Lovell. his partner,
who Is still at large, met him In a sa
loon a week pgo and unfolded a plan to
kidnap the jrirl and hold her for a $5000
ransom. Rogers says he at first would
have nothing to do with the scheme, but
finally consented, lured on by the prom
ise that he would get half. He Insists
that he had never known the girl or
where she lived, but had known her
father and was friendly with him.
Rogers said Sunday night Lovell fur
nished him with a ptatol and a mask
and both walked to the Domengine
ranch, where they hitched up a team to
the rancher's buggy. Rogers declares
that Lovell set Are to the barn and the
men then took the girl In the buggy. At
Coalinga Lovell left his partner, saying
he would keep a lookout for the old man.
The horses were then turned loose.
Lovell Is supposed to be surrounded to
day, 14 miles west of Coalinga in the
hills. A posse of 100 men is In the vicin
ity and his capture appears certain.

G.
S. STEVENS ARRESTED FOR
KAXSAS CITT CRIME.
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.

SMALL SURPLUS IN JUNE
TREASURY'S CONDITION SHOWS
IMPROVEMENT.
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.
