A FIENDISH CRIME
Attempt Made to Set Fire to an o. Ipban
Asylum

Asylum
CINCINNATI, March 30-Au attempt to
burn the colored orphan asylum at Avon
dale aud its thrty-fve inmates very
nearly succeeded last night. Shortly be-
fore O'Clock, when the children were un-
dressing for bed, strong odor Of smoke
and oil was detected, and one Of the girls
noticed smoke curling from a crack near
the window on the north side. The
matron quickly got the children in line
and marched them out. The smoke grew
denser and the fire department Of the viii
lage and city was called upon. The flames,
which were between the wall and plaster
ing, were finally extinguished after doing
damage amounting to several hundred
dollars.
Investigation revealed startling facts
The structure is frame, resting on stone
pillars and leaving a space between the
ground and the floor. IN this space was
found the charred remains Of a large pile
OF kindling, over which kerosene had
been poured. There is no clue to the per-
son who started the fire, but the colored
people say the asylum has been an eye
sore to the whites, some OF whom would
not scruple at any means to secure its re-
moval' The white boys in the neighbor-
hood are also source of annoyance to
the Institution. The most probable theory
is that the fire was due to the plotting Of
these youths.
During the excitement Matron Dunlap
and a two-year-old child were overcome
by smoke and were restored to conscious
ness with great difficulty. The colored
people are greatly excited over the out
rage.

REFUSED THE APPLICATION
A Case Testing the Criminal Code o
Texas

WAsHINGToN, March 30-The supreme
court of the United States today refused
to grant an application for writ Of ha-
beas corpus In the somewhat celebrated
murder case of Dick Duncan VS.. Mccall,
sheriff Of Belpar county, Texas, in which
1t was sought to bring into question the
validity OF the entire penal code of the
state OF Texas.
Duncan was indicted, tried and CON
victed in Texas OF murder and sentenced
TO be hanged. He appealed the case
through all the intermediate courts of the
state OF Texas, and when the court of APP
peals OF the Lone Star state decided
against him the case was taken to the
United States courts, where the decision
was still against him. 1t was finally
brought here. The supreme court, in
opinion by Chief Justice Fuller, aiiirms
the Judgment of the court from which
the appeal was taken.
Duncan's contention was that the code
of Texas was never lawfully enacted In
accordance with the requirements OF the
state constitution, and that the code en-
rolled differed through errors of the en-
rolling clerks from the code passed by the
state legislature, Had Duncan's conten-
tion been sustained, II would have re-
suited In the release of all the prisoners
In the state and would have totally upset
the state criminal system.

likely to be rejected, as many OF the dele
gates have been instructed against 1t.

Declared Not GUILTY

CHICAGO, March 30-The case of j. j.
West vs., the people of the state Of Illinois,
in which an opinion was handed down by
the supreme court today. grows out Of a
struggle for the possession Of the Chicago
Times. Several years ago West aud Clin-
ton A. Snowden, then owner of the Times,
secured the cooperation OF wealthy capi-
taiists Of keOkuk, Ia. and bOught the
Times from the late Wilbur i. Storey.
West was installed as manager OF the
paper in behalf of the syndicate. The
company became so largely involved by
the eXtravagant management OF West that
1t was found necessary TO 0ust West from
the management in order to protect the
property.
Investigation of the affairs Of the com
pany disclosed the fact there was an over
issue Of stock to the extent Of several
hundred shares. Criminal proceedings
were at once instituted against West and
Secretary Graham. Wet was found
guilty aud sentenced to five years in the
penitentiary, while Graham was acquit-
ted. An appeal was taken to the supreme
court, which reversed the judgment and
removed the case

RIOT IN PENNSYLVANIA
One Thousand Strikers Attack
Frick's Coke Ovens Near
Pittsburg
Coke Ovens Destroyed, Rail-
way Tracks Torn Up and
Much Damage Done
Preparations Being Made for q
Great Strike to Take Place
May

PrTrsBURG, March 3O-Nearly 1,00t
strikers attacked Frick's coke works al
Morewood at 2 O'Clock this morning, de-
stroying the coke ovens and railway track
and broke the windows in a number OF
houses. Several raiders were arrested
Riots are also reported at Leissenring and
at Leith. Considerable property was de-
stroyed.
There is great excitement throughout
the coke country, and serious trouble is
apprehended. The trouble has assumed a
new phase and now threatens TO develop
into war between the operators and the
labor organizations. Frick stated today
that heretofore he had not antagonized
labor, but in the future he did not pro-
pose to stand idly by and see his property
destroyed
SCorrsDALE, Pa, March 30-There is
rioting at large number Of coke plants.
A mob Of 1900 infuriated strikers swept
down on the Jimtown plant today, routed
the wofkmen, assaulted several men and
threatened the uperintendents life. A
bomb was set off at the West LeiSsenring
mine and the men notified not 10 go to
also raided and the wOrkmen put to
flight Labor leaders are trying TO allay
the excitement, as other raids are feard
The Frick Coke company officials here
have notified the sheriifs to increase their
forces.
HUNTINGTON, Pa, March 30-Elaborate
preparations have been made by the EN-
ployes of the Central Pennsylvania coal
mines for a general strike May !. Their
grievances, they say, are beyond further
endurance, and only sweeping shut
down will avail them anything. The scale
provided at the Columbia convention for
80 cents per tou of 1900 pounds has been
ignored by all the operators, who demand
OF the men 2,240 pounds per ton The
miners will make demand for the eight
hour day and absolute freedom from the
system OF purchasing necessaries Of life
from their employers.
The present action of the miners is
largely due to the general resumption Of
the pluck me- stores, and the method of
keeping the men continually In debt to
operators. At today's conference between
miners Of Broadiop, Gallietsen and Clear
field regions, representing over IL 900 men,
a general strike on May | was agreed
upon.

TRACED TO RUSSIANS
The Recent Murder of Beltoheff, th
Bulgarian Minister

BERLIN, March 30-The Cologne Gazette
commenting upon the murder Of Beltcheff,
Bulgarian minister of finance, says; THE
Importance Of the Bcltchef murder is en-
HANGED by the coincidence that the new
agitation in Bulgaria is traced to Rus
slams and the fact that papers in the
French foreign Office declare that the
mandate which the ConStantinople con-
ference granted to Prince Alexander, the
depOSed ruler Of Bulgaria, cannot be con
tinued to Prince Ferdinand, the present
ruler of that country.
1t Is reported that "A note has been issued
by Degiers. Russian secretary Of state and
foreign affairs, forrunniDg The intention
Of Russia TO interfere in the Balkans.
This circumstance, combined with the
demonstrated massing Of Russian troops
on the Austrian frontier, is looked upon
as sign of the approaching of critical
days in Eastern Europe.
