Massillon, Nov. 23.-The big burly
burglar who scared Baggage Master
Edwards out of several years grown at
the Pennsylvania freight depot Monday
evening has been located. The burglary
was at once reported to the Pennsylva-
MIA railway detectives, and Special ON
Ger Stacy went to work on the case.
wednesday morning officer Stacy and
Officer Getz, of the local police force,
went to work and in the afternoon a
thirteen-year-old boy named Forsyth
was in the relentless grip of the law.
But in this case the law was not so re-
lentless. The boy, it is said, confessed
He told how he entered the depot
through the cellar and prowled about
the offices. He heard footsteps ap-
preaching Just as he had secured pos
session of a lamp. The boy was scared
half out Of his wits but lodged under
the counter as Edwards entered and
struck a match. Finding that he would
be discovered the youthful prowler
made a break through the door leading
into the freight department. He bang
ed into a truck and the lamp he had
clung to came with a crash to the floor.
Edwards did not give chase, but went to
a nearby telephone and called up an
athletic reporter who assisted in a
search of the premises and then called
the police.
Detective Stacy and officer Getz de-
serve credit for their quick work. AT
police headquarters Wednesday even
ing it was given out that the railway
officer would not prefer charges against
the boy at present. He will be given
an opportunity of studying and cor
recting the error Of his ways.

BIG BICYCLE TRUST.
Indications Are That Smaller Con.
Germs Will Fight It.

New York, May 1.-The Herald says
that recent developments in the at
tempted formation of a bicycle trust
indicate the huSeness of the scheme as
contemplated by the promoters and
prove that all is not plain sailing to-
ward the perfection of the scheme. Not
only was it the intention of the pro-
meters to form a close combination of
all the big manufacturers of bicvcles,
but they aimed to bring into the trust
all makers of saddles. tires. rims, tub
ing and all other bicycle parts.
With this end in view options have
been secured on the plants of many
manufacturers 6f supplies and parts
1t made little difference that some
makers of parts, like saddlemen. for
instance, had already formed a trust
of their own. AS a matter of fact, it
is stated on excellent authority. A T.
Garford, who recently formed the BIZ
cycle saddle trust, was largely inStru-
mental in whipping the saddle and
parts-makers into line for the bigger
combination
1t now appears that the big bicycle
manufacturers are not nearly so unan-
imous in the opinion that the proposed
trust. if contaminated, will be able to

A PAUPER CLERK APPOINTED
JAMES SABINE CHOSEN BY COM
MISSIoNERS.
Caused Some Disappointment to
Third Precinct Democrats-Joseph
Bull Was a Candidate.

Those who predicted that William F.
Gray was secure in his position as clerk
of the board of county commissioners
pauper committee after Joseph T..
, Eldredge, the new appointee, had been
removed from the place last week, did
not speak by the card. Gray's tenn
porary advantage was attributable to
the opposition of Commissioners Arm
strond and RawlinS to Eldredge's ap-
pointment AS solution of the prob
lem, it was suggested that a new man
should be appointed to the clerkship,
since for the majority to urge upon
Commissioner Whitaker. chairman of
the pauper committee, the retention of
Clerk Gray, against whom he had
strong objections, would be a breach of
official ethics.
At yesterdays session of the board
Mr.. Gray made the way out of the
difficulty an easy task by rendering his
resignation. His letter of resignation
stated his belief that such a course
would be for the best interest of all
concerned, because if he remained he
feared there would be a lack of har-
mony between himself and Commits
sioner Whitaker.
Clerk Gray's resignation was prompt
ly accepted, to take effect the end of
this week, and James Sabine, jr, a
well-known resident of the Fourth pre-
cinct, was unanimously chosen to sue
coed him. Mr.. Sabine was endorsed by
