Captain Booth got hold OF n lease In

fore the famous Benwood pool had
been struck by the Fisher company,

THEE CAPTURED
Early Yesterday Morning by Officer
Knnbe-Ho Pleads Guilty.


Saturday night the police had quite
a chase after a fugitive from Pennsyl-
vania Justice, a young fellow named
Robert Speers. About midnight, word
was received at police headquarters
that q robbery had been committed
in Washington, Pa, and the supposition
was that the robber had cought a
freight and come to Wheeling. A de-
scriptton Of the suspect was telephon-
ed here. and Lieutent Supler. who was
on duty at the time, notified the officers
on duty to keep a lookout for the
man. He also telephoned to the Baltl-
more & Ohio depot and found that n
freight was due from Pittsburgh about
3 o'clock. Acting upon the informa-
ton, he and officer Michaels went to the
tunned to head 1t off. knowing that
most of the tramps get or the trains
at that point.
When they arrived there they found
several 'vags" and examined them. but
none OF them answered the description.
In the meantime Officer Knabe, who
had been notified with the others.
caught the man Just as he jumped off
the train on Seventeenth street. He
took him to the building, where he gave
his name as c. s. johnson. He was
searched and after being stripped mo-
ney amounting to about $50, was found
under his arm. He finally admitted his
guilt and was locked up.

AN INTERNATIONAL AGREEMENT
As to the Price OF Nheat which Mr.. Bryan
Must. to be ConAisfcnt, Onnonc.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Nov. 22.-The
Post this morning says: A conference
OF nations on the subject Of the worlds
wheat market is understood TO be de-
sired by at least n of the great for
eign wheat growing empires. It Is
stated In official circles here that Rus
sia Is particularly friendly to such an
idea and is believed to be making over
lures, not only to the United States,
but to England. the Argentine Repub-
lie and Australia, which are the prin-
c!pal wheat growing nations OF the
world.
The idea suggested, as outlined here,
Is that these nations, should they see
fit TO unite in En agreement upon the
subject, could fix n price for wheat, to
be maintained uniformly through va
r.ous seasons Of yer production and
unsatisfactory crops caused by drought
or continual rain, and thus make the
principal grain staple upon which the
millions OF consumers depend for food
almost as Interchangeable In value as
gold itself has become. This would
enable the producer, in the event OF an
unusually large crop, to store his wheat
and obtain thereon D loan that would
tide him over until the wheat was in
demand In the worlds markets, when
ho would receive a full and fair price for

Coal Miners Wording.

About all of the coal miners in this
section are now at work at sixty-one
cents, but the mines operating are those
that do not come in direct competition
with the Pittsburgh district, hence the
settlement was not hard to make. All
operators realize that forty-1lve cents
Is not enough for mining coal. That
price was proposed as much by repre-
sentative miners as operators and only
as an ~cxpediency to be discarded as
soon as others were forced to do better.
