Special to the Register.
Kingwood, July 12.-An attempt was
made to rob the passengers on train No

ing. When the train left Tunnelton,
at 4 o'clock, Judge ]. T. Hoke and DR..
]. H. Manown were the only passen-

left the station two very rough look
ing men boarded the train and entered
the coach. The train officials did not
notice them get on. The men ap-
preached the two passengers and de-
manded hands up" DR.. Manown put
up his hands promptly, but Judge Hoke
declined very forcibly and threatened
to call the train officials. The would
be robbers desisted when threatened.
They did not exhibit firearms but seem
ed to be prepared and held their hands
on their hip pockets. The robbers I'M
mediately left the coach but rode on to
Kingwood and escaped among the
crowd before officers could be summon
ed. The sheriff is looking for the men
tonight.

GROWS WORSE AND WORSE.
Lewis, the Bond Forger, Now Believed to
Have Cleaned Up 100000.

Urbana, O., July 12.-There We're
more developments in the Lewis bond
forgeries to-day. e. NJ. Gottscheel,
representing the Third National Bank,
of Dayton. was at Mechanicsburg to-
day. He had two bonds of a thousand
dollars each Of the Mechanicsburg
school bonds. Both were declared for
geries. These bonds were different
from the other forgeries and show that
two sets of spurious bonds are out on
the Mechanicsburg school issue.
The Farmers Bank, Of Mechanics
burg. through Attorney Frank Chance,
filed a suit tonight against 2. T. Lew
is and Sarah Lewis, the Mutual Life
Insurance Company Third National
Bank of Dayton, z. b. Hutchison, of In
dianapolis, and others holding mort
cages and judgments against Lewis
This suit is for the marshaling of liens.
These parties alone hold one hundred
thousand of forged bonds. 1t is now
believed that the forgeries will reach
three hundred thousand dollars. 1t is
known now that the poor fund Of
Adams county is invested in spurious
Butler county bonds.

FOUR TRADE COMMITTEES
Make Their Reports to the American Flint
Glass Workers Union.

Special to the Register.
Toledo, o., July 12.-Four trade COM
mittees reported at to-day's session of
the meeting of the Flint Glassworkers'
convention, viz: stopper grinders, cas-
ter place, lamp workers and scatters.
Their reports were adopted without
much debate, indicating that it is the
purpose of the delegates to push busi-
ness and complete the work as soon as
possible.
All of these committees reported wage
lists, which are virtually last years
scales. The lamp workers committee
added half a dozen new articles in the
chemical branch of their department
and fixed prices thereon. 1t was de-
veloped in their deliberations that
pill bottle, similar to the vials made bS
them, is being blown in a mold in the
prescription branch, but it is not likely
to cause much trouble to the lamp
workers, as the bottle cannot be blown
any cheaper than it can be made from
the tube over a lamp. 1t was also
brought out that vials with screw
necks, nearly two inches in diameter,
are being made over lamps, showing the
high degree of proficiency that has been
reached in this branch of the flint glasS
business. The caster place committee
reported about the same agreement as
the wage question that was reached at
the conference between the manufactur-
ers' and workers committees in Phila-
delphia on June 5. At that conference
the manufacturers asked for an equal
ization of the fish globe lists by reduc-
ing some moves and in increasing othen
moves. The convention to-day sus-
tanned their committees position. Ac-
cordingly the lists will not be changed.
The stopper grinders committees re-
port contained nothing important, and
it was adopted without debate
