Press Report.
Buffalo, June 15.--A letter received
here on Saturday brought the news
that s. +. Kizeminsll. better known ms
s. f. Frank, had been sent to the salt
mines Of Siberia for life. Mr.. Frank
was a resident of Buffalo for twenty
five years, and was n leader among
poles here. He lived at No. 1152 Broad
way, and was an insurance agent
For time he was local superintendent
OF the Prudential Insurace society.
About two years ago he moved to AL
lentown, Pa, where he became super
intsndent OF the United States Indus
trial Life Insurance company. He turn
ed his business here over to his two
sons, who still conduct It, and, as he
frequently visited Buffalo continued his
Wide acquaintance.
Franks wife never came to this coun-
try. fearing the sea voyage, but he kept
up constant correspondence with her
and sent her money regularly. ON
March . he wrote to his sons in TINS
city that he was going 10 Poland to
see their mother The next letter was
received here March s. and was dated
on the NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. liner Diana.
No further message was received here
until Saturday, when Antony e. SIKH,
of this city, received a letter from his
cousin. S. Jankowski, who is also a
cousin of Frank.
The letter was dated at Ulrchawek.
Poland. but had been mailed at THORN,
Germany, the writer saying he was
afraid to mail II in Portland, as It would
be examined. and he would be punished
for writing It, Jankowskl wrote that
Frank had been seized and had been
sentenced to the salt mines at Siberia
without trial.
The whole proceedings was rushed,
as 1t is usually In the case of spies. As
soon as Frank was arrested Jankowski
had appealed to the United States con-
sui at Warsaw and requested him to
intercede. as Frank was an American
citizen. The consul started an inquiry.
but was informed that Il would be of
no avail, as Frank was on his way TO
Siberia, and the sentence would not
be reconsldered.
The Polish settlement here was great
ly wrought up when the news of the ar
rest was received Frank must have
citizenship papers, as he voted regu-
larry here for over fifteen years
Immediate steps We're taken to bring
the matter to the attention of the gov
ernment petition has been drawn up
and signed by 2000 Poles calling on Sec
rotary Gresham TO Investigate forth
with. 1t will be forwarded to washing
ton In a few days
Franks sons say they know Of no
reason why he should have been de-
tained In Russia, as he had never ex-
pressed strong anti-Czar sentiments

TRUSTEES ASSOCIATION.
Special Dispatch.

Special Dispatch.
Austin, Tex. June 15.-speaking of
this proposed organization yesterday
State Superintendent Carlisle said Il
regard the proposition to organize
state trustees' association at Galveston
on the eth Of this month as another
one Of the many unmistakable evil
dences OF educational progress in this
state. 1t viii be remembered that this
proposition originated with member
OF a city school board, and the meet
ing at Galveston viii be composed OF
city trustees, for the reason that the
proposition came too late to have meet
tions to send delegates and for the rea-
son that the county trustees now In
office go out July /. But 1 have no
doubt that the organization Will be
made broad enough to include all class
es Of school trustees. During the com
ing year / hope each county trustees
association will select delegates to the
next state association so that when
the state association meets In 1895 we
shall have large attendance.
During the last year 1t has been
county trustees associations, and /
have been pleased to note the striking
growth Of the interest In school work
that trustees are manifesting. There
was n time when many trustees I'm
this state seemed to think they per-
formed their whole duty by contract
ing with teachers and approving their
salary vouchers, This IL no longer 50.
ON the contrary trustees are taking
an active and intelligent interest In
all phases OF school work. The infu-
enoe Of this interest has been one OF
the potent factors In producing the gen
eral Improvement of our schools, and
every increase of that interest In a
promise of future progress. II seems,
therefore. eminently proper that the
men who are exertlng such a great
influence upon the schools and who
are destined to exercise a stlll greater
influence upon them should meet to
confer with each other and discuss the
great problems with which they have
to deal. sincerely hope that every
city school board VIII send delegates
to the Galveston meeting on the 27th
Inst, and that good start win be
made In movement which. II sue
cessful, cannot fail to accomplish great
and general good.
