Gustav Bosr.0. He Is a former em?
ploye of the Richard firm, and in re?
garded by the police as merely the
tool of clever crooks.
The plot, says Lieutenant Browne,
of the detective bureau, was hatched
in Sing Sing and was one of the
cleverest jobs of swindling that Iho
American or foreign police have hail
to solve. The police say that the plot
was conceived by Jean Isolds Bense,
who was sent to Sing Sing for four
years in 1904 for forging the name
of John L. Alvarez. Dense got out of
Sing Sing on November 1st last, eight
days before the swindling operation
was begun .het?. Bense's chief as?
sistant, according to the police, was
Frank Pollno, who ?was Kent to Sing
Sing in 190;t for defrauding the Rich?
ard banking firm out of ?ivO on a
forged chock while working there as
a bookkeeper.
The Paris police. picked up Follno
and a man who called himself a count,
and gave his name variously an Al?
bert TVOneion and Albert D'Augtlo,
on February 271 Ii, but they were sub?
sequently released, having given a
good account of themselves. When a
further attempt to arrest wan made
they had flown. 'Bozzo himself was
round in Paris on March 7th,' and
under the "third degree" he Anally
made a confession.,

RACE RIOTERS HAVE 200

Uzzlc, Eastern Shore Negro Editor,
Who is One of the Accused,

NORFOLK. VA., March 17.--Tho
first, of the alleged Eastern Short'
race riot cases removed from Judge

ty, to Norfolk city fort trial ' began
this morning when J. D. Uzzlo, the

"not guilty."
Uzzlo, convicted with tho negroes

in Judge Dlackstone's court 'soveral
months ago to three years in tb"
penitentiary. This case, like thine
of Burton and Conquest, abfo sonten
ccd to state's prison, was appealed
and Iho supreme court, which allowed
all three defendants now trials, re?
manding tho case to Norfolk.
This morning's boat from Cape

200 white and negro residents of Ac
comae and Northampton counties in?
terested In tho outcome of tho three
trials and all were In the court, room
when ?zzlo was arraigned and en?
tered his plea of "not guilty."
The first witness In the case was
Onrlnnd Beloto. who declared that he
was twlco shot by Uzzle, this being
the origin of the race troubles w-hlr.h

Negro vote In Some of the northern
State? Ha? Grown to Formidable
Sire and Republican Party Needa It
lo Win.
WASHINGTON. P, C, March 17.?1
ntslurblng Informal Ion In roaotllng
Republicans In Washington concern-1
Ins B ??rloua deflection In tho negro
vote or the country thla year. .lust
at thin stage In previous national
campaign", during tho last twenty
years, disquieting rumors aboul tho
iittltudo of the negroes have been
current, but, In tho past, little atten?
tion hns boon paid to them. Tho Re?
publicans have figured that tho ne?
gro voto necessarily would be cast
for their candidates, because, It has
appeared heretofore, the men who
wero not representative of their race
In a broad sense.
In tho Sotttih, na many Republicans
vk-w- it, It doea not nialto much dif?
ference particularly about the negro
vote, because of tho political condi?
tions which exist In that section. The
negro In the South, however, will bo
permitted to be a dumiuunf jmlltlcal
factor; but In some of the Northern
states tho uogroes actually hold n
balance of power at elections. In
lltcifo very states where tho negro
voto Is greatest It will bo necessary
for any Republican candidate to poll
enough votes to carry t-ho states. Oth?
erwise ho will bo lost.
Par-scolng Republicans aro taking
notlco of tho situation and It Is be?
coming moro evident every dny that
It a candidate bo not prcaonlcd by
tho Chicago convent Ion who can get
the great bulk of tihe negro voto In
tho North the Republican party Is
In for a sound dniblng uext Novem?
ber.
Statistics show that the negro voto
in many Northern states Is Increas?
ing rnpldly. T.lie managers of tho
campaign of at least ono of Iho Ko
publlcnn candidates for President
have mac|.< an nnnlysis of tho negro
voto In Botno Important Northern
slates nnd, on paper, It looks pretty
formidable. In Ohio. Tor Instance, tho
black vote has Increased tremendous?
ly In Wio last five years. It Is now
between 66,000 and 60,000. Substan?
tially the name ratio of Increase ap?
plies to other states. Hero aro some
or tho statistics:
In Indiana the black voto has
Jumped from 18.000 to 30,000; In Illi?
nois, from 30,000 to 60.000; In Kan?
sas, from 15,000 to 35.000; In Oregon,
from 14.000 to 21,000 In Missouri,
from 46,000 to 60.000; in Now Jersey,
from 22,000 to 30,000.
This list might be continued
Uhrough othor states. The llgurcs
given aro In round numbers, hut a
careful examination Indicates that
they aro approximately accurate. No
sane person could supposo that, if a
considerable majority of the negro
vole wero cast against tho Republican
candidate, he could carry New Jer?
sey, west Virginia, Oiiio. Indiana,
Missouri or Oregon, not to mention
otiher states which certainly would bo
affected seriously In tho event of tho
general revolt of tho negroes being
carried to the polls.
In view of those facts. It Is pretty
certain that t-ho delegates to Uio Chi?
cago convention will think prottv hard
before nominating any tar? who is
not assured of his ability ,o canv
states in which t-he negro voto is so
trerucidotu and Important n factor.
