CHILD-STEALING.
The Mystery that Surrounded the
Niles Case
Cleared Up-The Father Procured the Children
to be Stolen. Fearing the Decision
of the Court.

| Especial to THE Observation-Disclosures Disnatcb
SPRINGFIELD, o., April 2O-The mystery
surrounding the most sensational case of
child stealing probably since the Charley
boss affair has been solved by the arrest
OF Miss Effie Cutler, Miss Drummer, Miss
Bachelor and Ellen Talbot on the charge
OF stealing the Niles children at the insti
cation Of their father, DIR. Niles. The
story OF the stealing of the children reads
more like romance than sober reality. DIR.
and Mrs. Niles have beea fighting in the
courts for the custody of the children for
some time. Three weeks ago on the eve of
the decision of the court, the children were
stolen and could not be found. Miss Ellen
Talbot, dressmaker, confessed TODAY that
she hired horse and buggy and stole the
cnlloren at o'clock in the morning from
the house where the sheriff had placed
them Tor safe keeping, and drove with them
twenty miles to lonely country place be-
longing to Mr.. and Mrs. Cutler Here
they were kept in secret and allowed to see
no one. Miss Talbot further confessed
that about a week afterwards she again
went to the country house. The children
were taken into room and the sunny
haired boys, Paul and Louis shorn of their
curls. Some powerful black hair dive was
then applied to their heads and their hair
became a deep black. They were then
dressed in two suits of girls cloth
ing, which Miss Talbot took out for
the purpose, to complete the disguise.
The children were then taken to Pittsbure
and finally to little country town in
Michigan, Howell, Livingston county. A
detective started after the children this
morning. The Cutters were to get $40 for
stealing and taking care of the children.
The money was placed on table and taken
without any explanation except by move
ments in the sign language The father
was also arrested and lodged in Jail on the
charge of child stealing, as he is said to
have planned the whole scheme. 1t is be-
lleved by the lawyers and detectives en-
gagged on the case that the offense IS clearly
comprehended under the Ohio statute on
kidnapping or child-stealing, for which the
punishment is from one to twenty years in
the penitentiary. DR.. Niles had the chill
dren stolen, it is claimed, because it was
generally thought the courts would give
them to his wife and she threatened to put
them In convent, to which he was violently
opposed. Miss Drummer and Miss Kate
Bachelor were arrested this evening for
completely in the kidnapping case. Miss
Bachelor is boarding house keeper with
whom the children were left for safe.keep-
ing. The sheriff has received a telegram
from Michigan saying that the children
would soon be returned.

Rloting in the Coke Regions.

ScoTTDALE, Pa, April %. -Rioting strik-
ers continue in the coke regions. The
Leisering plant of the Frick coke company
is kept in an uproar. Since Saturday
night the works have been surrounded bv
mob day and night. and the explosion of
bombs and firing of guns can be heard at
all hours. The coke company has sworn
out an Injunction against thirty three of
the leaders, and also instituted criminal
charges against them. The Injunction
papers and warrants have been placed in
the hands of the sheriff and constables,
but they claim to be powerless to serve
them without the assistance of troops. A
number of coke plants are running a full
force, while others have started up again.
To-day was prolific of excitement and
small riots throughout this region. Women
generally are leading and are most bitter in
their attacks upon the deputies. Hereto
fore they have been silent, but when the
evictors attacked their homes the foreign
women especially were driven wild. During
a squabble to-day two deputies were pain
FULLY injured. But few evictions were
made, as the sheriffs fear opposition and
are gathering larger forces of deputies.

Hour. The negotiations were protracted on
cereals, fours and oils, including Pc
troleum and lard. Some question in
regard to tobacco was also raised,
but as it did not come within the
scope Of reciprocity, the American tariff
was put aside. Premier Canovas offered
resistance to the abolition of the tariff on
nour, owing to the protests of Spanish
traders. Eventually representation that

per cent since 1889, has been completely

OF Spanish flour while increasing Cuban
consumption to 100000 barrels yearly, all
OF which will be American product. If
the pressure of Spanish interests had not
been counteracted by the demands of the
CUBAN commission, Canovas would have de-
cline to make such concession. The pros
pect that dangerous tension of the rela-
tlons of Spain with Cuba and Porto
Rico would result possibly in civil
war, obliged the government to sacrifice
home Industries to colonial interests.
Under the new convention America will
obtain kind of zollverein with the
Spanish Antilles. Wheat, BEANS -four,
lard, petroleum, manufactured products
and machinery will enter practically free
OF duty. Among other Spanish exports,
olive oil will be replaced by American lard,
and beans now exported to Cuba in large
quantities will cease to be sent. The ad-
vantages resulting to Cuba will be great
but 1t is impossible to estimate the injury
to Spanish trade.

MONTPELIER, Idaho, April 2O.-TSpecial
telegram to The HERALD. The prelimin-
airy examination of DR.. E. E. Rivers aud
A. M. Musser for the murder of S. b. Nc
Cart was concluded here last night before
Judge Kelley. Twenty five witnesses were
examined for the prosecution and on Satur-
DAY afternoon the prosecution rested their
case. The defense only put five witnesses
on the stand. The evidence showed that
Il. E. Rivers and a. NJ. Musser and others
went into the Arcade hotel and there was
notice placed on the table that one of the
tables was reserved for S. B. Nc
Cart and family. Rivers took
the notice from the table and put

they sat at the table Mozart went into the
dining room after having been informed
that the notice was put into the stove and
accused Rivers of doing it. Rivers denied
'he accusation and moved to the next table,
When Mozart picked up chair and struck
hlvers and called him vile names. Mozart
Agaln struck Rivers with the chair, when
Rivers pulled out pistol and shot Mozart
In the leg. Mozart again picked up a chair
and went after Rivers the third time, when
Rivers fired the fatal shot and killed him
Instantly.
The attorneys for Rivers made plea for
self-defense. The court at o'clock last
night held Rivers under bonds of $500 to
await the action of the grand jury which
VIII meet in October. A. M. Musser, ir.,
was discharged as there was no evidence to
snow that there was conspiracy between
Musser and Rivers to take the life of Nc
Cart. n
The examination lasted from Wednesday
until Sunnay evening, night sessions being
In, order, but the attorneys on both sides
agreed to continue the examination without
adjournment, hence the court was held on
Sunday, and the arguments of the attor-
neys and the verdict of the court were
rendered on the Sabbath day.
Considerable feeling is expressed in re-
gard to the low bonds Rivers Is held under.
Sheriff Jones leaves with the prisoner for
the county Jail this evening as he has not
been able TO furnish bonds so far. The
feeling between Rivers and Mozart has
grown out of Rivers trying to elope with
McCart's stepdaughter. Never in the his
tory OF this county has so much interest
been taken by the citizens as in this trial.
