Washington, May 10. Th filibuster
was temporarily broken late this after
noon and the conference report on th
currency bill was adopted by a vots of
43 to 23. Senator La Follette voted In
the affirmative, so that he could move
to reconsider, and says' that he will
continue the flght Indefinitely. , .
Late this afternoon Senator : Ston
yielded to Senator Qore.
It was announced that Senator Bacon
would follow Oore, but by clever tac
tics Aldrlch, with the aid of other lead
ers who favor, the bill, caught th fili
busters napping and forced a vote on
the adoption of th report. -
La Follette, who had returned' from
his brtef sleep, was equal to the occa
sion, however, and astonished Aldrich
and the others by calmly voting in the
affirmative. .. This, gave La Follette -th
right to move to reconsider. There
upon, La Follette announced that he
had no Idea of giving in and would
continue the fight as long as possible.
Senator Davis of Arkansas is on his
way from Little Rock, and La Follette

v An amateur safe breaker - Went into

with th chisel and pip wrenoh he" "
found In th back "room tried to open.
(hp safe, 'Whether h succeeded or not
tifanager-J. C. Baird does not know, a
the combination lock was twisted so -.
badly he could not get the door open.
'Even had the robber succeeded in
his task he could not havo become rich ;
as there was less than 120 in the safe.
Zooks Doc Whan X leaves. .
"The cracksman entered the building ,
by way of the side door which has a
common lock ' that ordinary keys will
open, y When he went out be locked the '
door. -This shows he was in no hurry.
That' he was an amateur seems prob
able from the fact that Ji did not
have, any tools 'of his - own; Profes- -sionals
always have a drilling outfit
and oil-and soap to 'make their work
noiseless. This night-worker had none .
of these aids- to Quick safe-breaking.
Another thing that shows he was not
an old hand la th fact that experi- -
enoea cracasmen never enter a piac
like the Standard ' Electrio company
where there Is hardly ever any forge
sum . money to be found.' .
Ktill more evidence of the novle In
this business Is shown by the fact that
tbe Imitation. Raffles pulled, the orna
mental knobs pf f the door hinge - of ;.
th safe In the evident belief that these
held th door In place. ' , t

Nothing else In the store Is missing r
a far- as Mr. Balrd could ascertain
this' morning. Th safe had been pulled -out
from the office and into th back '
room-' where It ' would be out of eight.
The Intruder sat on a small stool while ,
he drilled a hoi on on eld of the ;
combination knob. Tiring; - of this he -took
a wrench and pounded the knob
off. ' No' professional would have been
likely to do this.
. CP. Potter, th foreman of tbe elec
tric company,- found that the plae had
been entered when he came to the of
fice this morning shortly after 8
O'clock. - "- . fc --. ..; - - '.
The only possible clue to the identity
of the bungler lies in the fact, that
two hoboes oame Into th office yeater

these was a seedy old man with whis
kers and a blind eye. He asked the
manager for - a job cutting ' wood and
when told there was no wood to cut
asked for the price of a meal. Mr.

over the ground preliminary to at
