MR. LAFFER
Tells What He Knows Of the Alleged
Grand Stand PLAY.

Vice President ]. NJ. LATER of the
Peoples Savings bank, was inter-
viewed Monday morning by Dem,
ocrat reporter in relation to the pro,
posed grand stand" robbery of the
Peoples bank.
"Thc first information ! received in
relation to n robbery of our bank about
to occur" said Mr.. LATER, "was on
Wednesday evening, Nov. 81. At that
time was called up by telephone and
requested to come down to the Beacon
Journal office, upon a matter of i'm.
portance. started Immediately, and
met in n room In the newspaper office
Officer Washer and Detective Sherman.
They informed me that a plan was on
foot to burglarize the Peoples Saw,
ings bank, but that I need feel no
alarm as the Detectives said they were
onto the scheme; knew who the parties
were and would be arrested before
any money was stolen or the safe
damaged.
''The officers did not state who would
do the job or how or when 1t would
take place. l felt no alarm or un-
easiness, because in the first place, all
moneys and deposits in the bank were
fully covered by burglar insurance,
and l also placed confidence In the
ability Of the police officers to pre-
vent the robbery,
whether there is anything in the
newspaper reports regarding state.

by certain officers, | do not know, and
decline to express an opinion.
81 have nothing further to say except
that as soon as learned of the plan
to rob the bank, | notified the other
bank officials at once. Patrons and
depositors of the bank need not feel
the least uneasiness over the affair"
Mr.. LATER is not at all pleased that
his bank was selected as the instru,
ment by which this unusual object
lesson was to be taught. His state

cry sort OF light imaginable was dis,
cussed from pure, soft moonlight UP
through various stages of evolution to
the electric light. 1t seems that moon
light, soft and fancyllke must win
out in the race, for the town has been
left in total darkness both nights siuce
the contract expired. Barberton citi,
zens go about their business with
lanterns, like Diogenes of old, and were
honest men as scarce In Barberton as
they were among old Diogenes' neigh
bors, many robberies would doubtless
be reported during the time the town
is in darkness. 1t will require con-
siderable time to prepare even a
makeshift light system, and 1t is
thought the experience will be a les
son to Barbertonians.
DR.. II. L. Davidson has as his guest
Mr.. John Johnston, his brother-in
law, of Seattle, Washington. Mr.
Johnston has lately returned from
Klondike, and has many interesting

Robert Reimschuesel, of Millers-

Representatives Of the Schlitz Brew

deavoring to establish agencies and

The saloon now occupied by Dave
Taylor, ON Second ST., will be bought

conduct the business hereafter.
There will be a wholesale flying of

next Monday. Fifteen or twenty
birds will be brought here from Niles,
and released on that day,

Tied Bed Sheet Around
His Neck
Throwing Other End Over Hook
In Cell.
la Physician Says Prisoner Is Not
Insane.

Thomas j. Ryan made second at
tempt to end his life at the county jail
early Monday morning.
About / o'clock the other prisoners
confined in the upper corridor heard
jar and at once went to Ryan's cell.
He was found with rope, made from
bed sheet, around his neck, He had
fastened one end to a hook in the cell.
When his weight was thrown on the
rope the hook gave way, allowing him
to drop to the floor. He was not ser
iously injured.
DR.. Foltz, the jail physician, says
that Ryan is determined to die and
that he Is not insane. He has dread
of going to the penltentiary fearing
that he will be killed by the men who
have been sent there on evidence which
he was instrumental in collecting. DR.,
Foltz Is of the opinion that Ryan has
been acting a part for the past week.
He apears as though he was oblivious
to all his surroundings, The authori-
ties are now convinced that he is pos
sessed OF all his faculties. Ryan has
remarkable nerve, One day last
week DR. Foltz pushed needle into
the prisoners heel to the depth of an
inch. Ryan never filnched. He was
taken to the iniirmary Saturday but
was sent back to the jail rs there was
no room for him at the county house.

Proceedings We're Alleged
Irregular.
Attorneys Present Bills For
Their Services
In Defending Prisoners-Sentenced
to PenItentiary.

A motion for new trial has been
filed by the attorneys for Edmund Ep-
pley who was found guilty of having
dynamite in his possession the night
of the riot.
Eppley has already had two trials.
In the first case the jury disagreed.
The second jury to hear the case was
out for 231a hours before reaching an
agreement.
The Ryan incident cuts some figure
In the motion for a new trial. 1t Is
alleged that there was misconduct on
the part of the witness, Martin Hol-
leran, who is said to have been bribed
by Ryan to testify falsely in behalf Of
the state.
1t is also claimed that there was mis-
conduct on the part of the Court
calling in the jury to give it instruc,
tions. This took place Sunday morn
ing, and the attorneys for the defend
ant hold that it was an irregularity.
They also state that they have learne
of new evidence tending to prove the
innocence of the accused. The motion
will be heard Wednesday.

The crowd filed out of the room and

the detective produced document of
perhaps dozen or more type written
pages which he proceeded to read. At
noon he was still reading and n re-

1t was at this point that Prosecutor
Wanamaker sprung the biggest sen
sation OF the whole transaction, that
Is as far as the public is concerned.
Several days ago the Prosecutor is al
legged to have said: "File the report,
let the axe fall where II will"
In view Of this 1t was supposed that
the Prosecutor would not stand for
any secret proceedings, Those who had
heard OF this statement therefore were
treated to a genuine surprise when he
said:
1T is question whether the public
should be permitted to hear this re-
port before the Commissioners have
had an opportunity to pass Judgment
upon IT. A detective In his work may

the BUSINESS WORLD.
SOitening In Prices Of Staples and Cotton
ST enlightened During the Past Week.

General distributive trade is of salts
factory volume, though affected by
weather conditions and holidays. Spring
business is eniarging at many markets
east and west. A softening of prices Of
speculatively dealt in staples is to be
noted, but the reactions are of narrow
extent. Money Is steady as a whole,
and no higher than a week ago. Bank
clearings comparisons are rather less
favorable, partly because Of less pro-
nounced speculative activity at this time
last year.
Foreign demand for wheat remains
small, American stocks are large, farm
ers are reported holding supplies back
and crop damages cares are discounted
by mild weather. The strength of corn
has been a feature.
There is a larger volume of business
in pig iron at some markets, but less at
others, and prices of that product are
quiet and steady. The floating of the
new sheet combination has impaired
strength to that branch of trade.
The strength of cotton goods remains
a leading feature. The Fall River SELL
ing committee marked up print cloths
this week and the reports of dividends
declared point to exceptionally profit
able conditions in the manufacturing
branch
Wool is on the whole quieter and some
of the finer grades could be moved at
slight concessions, but low grades re-
main steady. Wooden goods continue in
| good demand for fall delivery and the
| outlook here is regarded as encouraging.
There is little new in boots and shoes,
and leather has been quiet, but very
heavy sales of hides are reported at the
west, the new upper leather combina-
ton being reported large buyer at
slight concessions.
| Business failures for the week number
1853, compared with 220 in this week a
year ago and 1873 in 1898.
