The youns man turned to cro, and the cashier returned to his dettk, under which he noticed somethiiifr black, which he at lirst thought was a doff. The black object sprang up and moved toward tho cash drawer. The startled cashier turned to the window to llnd the young man there covering him with a revolver. The man inside I also held a revolver to the cashier's head while he transferred packages of bills to his pockets, dropping a luickage In hia haste.

With his revolver still covering the cashier, the man on tho inside backed slowly to tho frato, opened it and passed out, around to his companion. The men hurried out of the door, k-oping Mr. Cobb covered with their revolvers to tho last. It was some seconds before the cashier recovered. Then he caught up his revolver, pressed tho electric button and rushed toward the gate.

On the motion today of Mr. Balfour, tho government leader, that the house of commons adjourn over Easter, Sir Dllke, Radical member of the Forest of Dean division of Giouc.h-tershirc, expressed regret that tic; government, before adjourning, had not afforded the house an opxrtunity of its policy in regard to Crete.

The. Liberal Iarty, Sir Charles added, was strongly united in this matter, in spite of reports to tho contrary. Parliamentary secretary, Mr. Curzon, replied for the government. He raid no one could rightly complain at lack of opportunity to discuss the conduct of the government There had been many discus-Ions on the subject and on the speeches of the marquis of Salisbury, although It was truo there had not been a vote of censure, tho government having failed to persuade the Liberal leader, Sir William Hurcourt, to repeat in the house the martial oration so much admired at Norwich, whtlo In the six debates on Crete the matter had only been raised twice and in the French chamber of deputies only once.

-Touching upon the question of the withdrawal of Uie Gf'ck troops from the Island of Ciete, Mr. Curzon asserted fiat this would open tho door leading to an almost immediate and paciiio settlement of the question. Concluding, ho thought no one would deny the policy of the government, peace in Europo and the Utieration ot Crete, was a good one, but that if the opposition had an altcrna.tive, let the bouse hear it. In reply Sir William Harcourt said that, (ilthciugu th government declined his challenge, he would not decline its challenge now made, although he was of the opinion the matter was of so great Importance it ought to have been discussed on a definito issue. It was now the duty of tho oposition to the government to record the united views of the Liberals.

He asked: What kind of liberty for Cre. Is the kind Crete wants? The explanation given, the speaker Insisted, was not given In tho house, but at smoking concerts and it seemed to him that this showed a desire to disparage the house of Therefore, he regretted that the government, had undertaken to stille discussion. In the house, as 110 government had ever done before. In the present concert of Europe, Said Bir -Williams, Great Britain seemed to be giving everything and getting nothing. Proceeding to defend the government's action In Armenia and in Crete, Mr.

Balfour said, that it England had stood atool 1 from tho concert, the result would not have been tho offer of autonomy to Crete an autonomy which ho was absolutely confident would be given. He thought it unbecoming In the leader of tne opposition to charge friendly powers with selilshifess and with carrying nothing for freedom or good government. Mr. Labouchere said that In view of tho thorough distrust felt In tho government and of tho serious crisis In the East, ho did not think tho eye of parliament ought to be closed for a fortnight. He, therefore, moved that tho houso do not adjourn.

This motion was rejected, 310 to 41, and Mr. Balfour's motion to adjourn over Easter was carried. Only the Radical menibeis supported Mr. Iibouchore'it proposal.
