COLLINS HEIDI
Claims That He Will Be Able to
Clear Himself of the
Charge.

Sergeant Gender, Of the Springfield
police, and Louis Keller, the latter the
owner of the rig alleged to have been
wrongfully retained by William Woods
and H. 7. Collins, who were arrested in
this city Friday afternoon, arrived in
Canton Saturday afternoon and at once
called at the police station. They de-
cided to release Woods as he was merely
employed by Collins, who will be taken
to Springfield to have preliminary
hearing. The story told by Keller was
to the effect that Collins hired the
horse and wagon to make trips through
the state as a peddler, and that every
week an amount Of money was to be
sent to Keller at Springfield for the
payment of the rig hired. 1t appears
that during the last week such money
had not been sent and Keller grew
suspicious and sent word to the various
cities requesting the arrest of the two
men. Collins said that he could prove
that he did not steal the rig as charg-
ed by the officers but that he merely
hired 1t and kept 1t overtime. Just what
disposition will be made of the case
is not known by the Springfield parties,
but they allege they have evidence
which will convict Collins. The prisoner
is well known in this city and has many
friends here. and has wife and family
in South Cherry street. He alleges he
is not guilty of any crime and will dis
prove any assertions made by the owner
of the rig regarding his guilt. 1t Is
understood that Collins wife is In des-
titute circumstances at the present
time. One of the officers who called at

PENSION CLAIMS.
Wooster Attorney Tells Why
He Believes They Have
Been Delayed.

A Wooster attorney who has quite a
number of pension claims of Eighth
Ohio boys before the department in an
gives the following reasons for delay in
action upon the claims:
I'm regard to pensions for Spanish
war soldiers, the government has been
very slow to act on any of the claims
as yet, and good deal Of complaint has
been heard because the boys have re-
ceived nothing, and nothing seems to
be done with their claims-neither al
lowed nor rejected. There may be j
clue to the action of the government
taken from the fact that, just after
peace with Spain was announced, and
a good many claims for pensions were
placed before the government, the sur
geon general of the army, Sternberg,
said he was sorry to see so many of the
Spanish war soldiers applying for pen
sions on account of their physical con-
dition after coming home from Cuba,
as he thought the then evident effects
of the campaign were only temporary,
and that probably in two years the
boys would be all right physically. One
year of that time is about up, and no
action has been taken with the claims,
y
some are not much better, although
the yellow color has left their skin. The
large quantities of poison absorbed by
the boys in Cuba and the lack of whole
some food at that time to counteract
the poison and the exposure, is believed
by many to have caused permanent
disease of the stomach, liver, kidneys Or
Observation-Disclosures happened to be the
least able TO resist the poison and it's
effects.
THE first claim in the Spanish war
in any numbers were those of the 14th
New York boys, who were discharged
on October 27 1898, and within the last
two weeks the pension office has COM
menced to issue orders to those boys
to appear before the local medical
boards for physical examination. The
list New York boys who fought at San
Juan Hill were mustered out on NoVem-
Der Is, 1898; they expect soon to receive
orders for medical examination, al
though the pension office has not yet
taken any action whatever in their
cases. The Sth Ohio boys were mus
tered out November 81 1898. No orders
for medical examination has been made
is acting on the Spanish war claims
according to the date of filing-as it is
understood it is doing-it can be read
lily seen why the boys of the Sth Ohio
have not received orders for medical
examination. The fact that the 14tll
New York boys have just commenced
TO receive orders is favorable evidence
for the Sth Ohio boys to expect similar
action in their cases before long. Mean.
while the only thing to do is to await
the convenience of the government"

TO DEMANDS.

Will Come to Terms.
FOR SCHOOL CHILDREN
viii Now BE Amicabiy Adjusted by Pro-
perty Owners Ceding the Territory
To the city school
Dist rict.

There are hopes that the board of ed
ucation of Canton and board Of educa-
ton of Canton township are about to
come to some satisfactory conclusion
concerning the territory lying south of
Harrison avenue. The pupils from that
district owing to the fact that the town
ship board would not cede the territory
to the city board, were compelled to 60
to the Burkhill school or pay tuition 20
the Canton schools while at the same
time the property holders were taxed
for the maintenance of the country
school. At the present term of school
pupils have refused to go to the country
school and the board of education of
this city refused to permit them to enter
the local schools without planking down
the cash for tuition. This raised howl
and the parents of pupils in the district
named formed an organization and in
sisted that the territory be ceded to the
city school district. 1t is understood
that the township board has about con-
cluded to acceed to the peoples demand
and they will meet with the board of
education tonight to take some action
in the matter. 1t is said the residents
of the Brookside school district which
lies west of South Market street extern
sion will also demand that portion of
the territory be added to the city school
district.

YOUNG STERLING ROBBED.
Evidently Assaulted on His Way From
Denver to Chicago.
HE REMEMBERS NOTHING
Concerning the Trip. Though He Reoog-
nized His Father Unable TO Give
An Account of What Occurred
to Him lin the Deten-
tion hospital.

Attorney James Sterling of 500 North
PWalnut street, returned home from
Chicago Sunday morning, where he had
gone to ascertain the condition of his
son, William II. Sterling, who was
taken in charge by the police OF that
city and found to be in a partly de-
mented condition. Mr.. Sterling upon his
arrival in Chicago found his boy in the
detention hospital where he had re-
ceived every attention at the hands of
the physicians.
There is a great mystery surrounding
young Sterlings condition. The boy
recognized his father at once but was
unable to give him any connected
account of how he became in the condi-
tion he was found in by the Chicago
officers. To News-Democrat reporter
Mr.. Sterling said that his son was in
too excited condition to bring him home
on Friday. Saturday he was more
quiet but upon the advice Of the super
intendant of the hospital it was decid-
ed that the unfortunate young soldier
should remain in the hospital until he
was further improved in healtL. Sc
the father came home without him.
1t seems that when Sterling's regi-
ment-the First Colorado-returned
from the Philippines it was mustered
out at San Francisco but came to Den
yer intact. Sterling remained in Denver
with relatives for several days and then
left for home coming by way OF
Chicago. He left Denver, according to
a telegram received by Attorney Sterl-
ing from the lieutenant Of his sons
company, last Monday evening and in
all probability arrived in Chicago
Wednesday evening. The entire journey
is blank to the boy. He Is certain OF
two things; that he had a through
, ticket to Canton and wore his full sol
diers uniform. When he was found by
the Chicago police he had no ticket and
no uniform He wore pair of olc
ragged trousers, "a blue shirt iwtt
pockets in it and an old pair Of tar
shoes. The boy remembers nothing o1
his trip from Denver: cannot tell the
name of the railroad. when he arrived
in Chicago or any other details of what
evidently has been an awful experience
Mr.. Sterling is satisfied that his sor
has been beaten and robbed. Nothing
will be left undone to solve the mystery
Mr.. Sterling will at once communicate
with the relatives at Denver and viii
ask the assistance of the Chicago police
Officials TO nelp MIN III his ehuedNors
to locate his sons supposed assailants
When found by the police young Sterl'
ing was penniless
William Sterling is % years. Of age
He enlisted in the First Colorado regi
ment in the spring of 1898 and served IL
the Philippines for one year and one
day. He was wounded by a Mausel
bullet which passed through his lef
arm during a battle with Spaniards
He was known as a, brave, patriotic
soldier who was never found wanting
in the courage which makes the Ameri
can soldier the greatest fighter in the
world.

SYNOD CLOSES.
One of the Most Important Ses.
siOns That Have Been Held
For Years.

The proceedings of the Central Synod
Of the Reformed church which had
been held in this city the past week
came to close Saturday night about
1920 o'clock by final adjournment.
The synodical ministers who were in
attendance sustained the opinion that
this was probably one of the most i'm
portant of their sessions with reference
to past meetings and that considerable
business was transacted and that the
affair mutually was a determined sue
cess. It's delegates were Hospitality re-
ceived by the members Of the congrega-
tions of the Reformed churches in this
city, and the thanks and praises which
the departing brethren lavished upon
their kind hosts were gratifying to the
extreme. The synod was a meeting
of the representative ministers Of the
Reformed churches Of this state and
Michigan and many prominent divines
delivered inspiring and brilliant ad-
dresses on educational and theological
subjects during the sessions, and the
event was one ever to be remembered
| by visiting delegates. An effort was
made to secure a return of the synod
to this city in 1900 but a reverend
gentleman from Lima extended an invi-
tation and it was unanimously decided
to meet in that city on the second
Wednesday in September next year, in
the First Reformed church.
The death Of DR.. l. M. Stearn. Of
Indianapolis, a member of one of the
synods of the church was fitly commem-
GRATED by the appointment of COM
mittee to draft resolutions for that pur-
pose, and which resolutions were after
ward adopted by a rising vote.
The reports of the committees on
state religion, mission house, church
publications and foreign missions was
continued by discussion and their proper
reference Saturday afternoon and even
ing. The reports were altogether en-
couraging and the boards were con-
graduated on their successful manage
ment of these affairs.
Memorials were presented on the
death Of Rev. II. Trout, formerly of
Cleveland, and Rev. M. Noll. of New
Knoxville, who previous to their
deaths had been members of the Central
Synod. Eulogies were pronounced on
| their deceased and the memorials was
ordered inscribed on the minutes.
Rev. Shade, of Alliance, was con-
frmed as editor of the Sunday school
| literature department of the synod,
and Rev. Sebring was elected treasurer
of the synod.
The boundary lines between the clas-
sis of Erie and Toledo were formally
established after some discussion. There
had been some trouble experienced
as to Just what classes certain minis
ters in these districts belonged to and
this was finally decided.
A vote of thanks was rendered Rev.
f. C. Nau, of the First Reformed church
of this city, for the able assistance
rendered the synod during it's sessions
and the use of the church for it's meet
ings. The newspapers received their
share of thanks for the recording of
the proceedings.
After the reading of the minutes of
the synod and their adoption as correct,
a final adjournment Of the synod was
had.
