"The police prefer that we do not give cut the facts." ?aid Mrs. Glannlni. "and my fa ther does not know as yet whether he will prosecute the thief. No, we positively will not give out the name. It in probablo that we will allow him to leave the State. He has made full confession and ail the prop erty has been recovered. The loss to us will amount to K0O or JX."
