FAv0RS UNIONS.
Promi minent Laboring Man Says
Unionism Is Growing
In Canton.

A laboring man prominent in union
circles in Canton said the other day
that he believed that within a short
time vast change would sweep over
the laboring circles of the country and
that the present steel strike Is but an
example of It's effect. From this he
said that the laboring men of Canton
should take warning. He said that
they should get together and organize
so as to be in position to be benefited
from whatever change should occur.
Canton has In the past been slow to
appreciate the value of organized la
bor," said he, "but more interest is
being taken now as the recent organi-
zation of the street railway employees
and of the BARRIERS will testify. There
are in all perhaps 10 or 16 unions in the
city when there are 40 or so different
kinds of labor represented in the city"
An Akron labor leader on visit to
the city the other day said that In
Akron there are .4Tunions. that nearly
every industry IL represented. He
brought with him program Of the big

Mysterious Disappearance OF
viii c. Schroeder, For-
mcrly of Alliance.

Will c. Schroeder, formerly a clerk
at hotel in Alliance, but who for ten
years has been a ticket clerk at the
Union depot, Cleveland, has probably
committed suicide.
He was mysteriously absent from
home for several days, but finally tele-
graphed from Laporte, Ind, that he
would be home Wednesday.
That day he reached Cleveland but
did not go home. He went to a boat
house, hired boat and boy to ac-
company him, as he claimed, out on
the lake to fish. Soon the boy return
ed saying that Schroeder had leaped in
to the water.
The boy had this note addressed to
Louis Schroeder, brothes:
"As you all know l am 32 years old
I have had no trouble with my rela-
tions and l love them all, nor have
had any trouble with my employers
as my accounts are all straight, which
will be seen later. / am going to my
grave on account of insanity that |
know is but temporary. but I cannot
help it, When you get this letter
will be dead. WILL"
Louis and Frank, brothers of Will
are also employed in the Cleveland de-
pot. Wills accounts were found to be
all right. He had an attack of typhoid
fever last winter, however, and has moi
been quite himself since.

For Others.

Harry Shay is still held in the city
prison. He is the suspect the News
Democrat mentioned, Thursday, in con-
nection with the murder of John Har-
tong, of Greentown. Once before he
was held in the workhouse for some
time and it is probable he will go there
again for safe-keeping, till the authori-
ties have decided upon plan of pro-
cedure.
Mayor Robertson stated to the News
Democrat, Thursday, that the man
would be held on some charge or other,
and intimated that the Hartong case
was not the only one that might be
urged to keep him where the authorl-
ties can get at him. Several charges
could be made. He is a confessed vag-
rant, and as he went about the city
with his hand tied up, stating that he
had lost all of his fingers in an accident
in Pittsburg, while in fact his hand
was as well as 1t ever was, 1t might
not be impossible to hold him for some
time on the charge of obtaining money
by false pretense.
Shay is known to the police of sew
eral cities as "Hollidaysburg Slim" He
has a record in various police courts
in the country.
II is known that during the investi-
cation of the Hartong case, with parti-
cular reference to the case against Will

the identification. Other evidence
may have been obtained by the author

police and the county authorities, are

son. But it has been understood thai
Henderson was an accessory and mo-
really present at the time the murder
was committed, and as Hartong, before
his death, confided to a friend that he
thought one of the men was a neighbor
all four seem to be accounted for
''Yorkey Dick" has kept himself in Sc
