Disappeared From the Wisconsin Town

Name of Lawrence, Though His True
Name Is Larson.
Special to The Globe.

Special to The Globe.
WINNIPEG, Man, July 17.-About
a year ago a man named Lawrence ar
rived at Wetaskiwan with his wife, os-
tensibly looking around for an oppor-
tunity for investment. He concluded
that there was a splendid opening for
large general department store, so
he engaged extensive premises, put in
an enormous stock "and all went mer-
ry as a marriage bell"
The other day, however, some gen
tlemen from the states called to see
Mr.. Lawrence. They were Prosecut-
ing Attorney Plumber, Sheriff Ans
ton, Registrar of Deeds Anderson, of
Durand, Wis, and John D. Devor, of
Reedsburg, Wis. Mr.. Lawrence SEEM
ed somewhat astonished to see these
gentlemen, more particularly as they
were accompanied by a Canadian Of
ficer of the law. His old friends did
not speak to him as Mr.. Lawrence, but
as Mr.. Larson, and he answered to
the name.
1t seems that he was badly wanted
on the charge of manufacturing bogus
securities and for stealing trust sums
to the amount of over 100000 in Du-
rand. He had an insurance and real
estate business in Durand and occu-
pied a high position in the community
He endeavored to organize large cas-
ualty insurance company and is said
to have literally manufactured mort
cages and notes to the extent of
81, 100000, which he deposited with the
secretary of this company. Some of
his frauds were discovered shortly af-
forwards and realizing on what he
could lay his hands upon, he fed.
Recently, a young man who had
known Larson in Wisconsin, happened
into his store and at once recognized
him. He communicated with the state
authorities in Wisconsin and Larsons
arrest followed. He was brought down
from Wetaskiwan last night and is now
lodged in the barracks. 1t is likely that
extradition proceedings will be waived.

CHALLENGES AMERICAN
AND FAILS TO MEET HIM
Capt. Wester, of the Swedish Army,
Shows the White Feather in a
Difficulty With William Casper.

STOCKHOLM, Sweden, July ia
great sensation has been caused in
military circles here by the conduct
of Capt. Arvid Wester, who, after chal-
longing an American, William Casper,
to fight a duel, failed to appear at the
spot selected for the encounter.
The trouble arose at a performance
last night in the grand arena palace.
WeSter, who was in the full uniform of
a captain on the general staff and
wearing his decorations, disturbed the
seance of a mind reader. Casper, who
is the manager of the establishment,
demonstrated with the captain and de-
manded an apology. This Wester re-
fused and Casper said the officers con-
duct was ungentlemanly and disgrace
full.
The captain then challenged the
American, who accepted and repaired
to the meeting place at o'clock this
morning, with his seconds, including
the secretary Of the United States le-
cation (Joseph Muir. Wester, who
was war correspondent in Cuba and
South Africa, failed to appear, and, as
consequence, will undoubtedly be
forced to retire from the army. Casper
has been the recipient Of many con-
gratulations.
Capt. Wester was the military at
tache to the legation of Sweden and
Norway at Washington at the time Of
the outbreak of the war between the
United States and Spain. He went
through that war, as he did through
the war between Turkey and Greece.
He was attached to Gen. Skaters
headquarters as a foreign guest.

EUROPEAN CONFERENCE
ON TRUST QUESTION
Important Move of Russia Which
Seems to Bode Monopoly
No Good.

LONDON, July 17-DetaiIs of an
Important move by Russia which have
evidently been suppressed hitherto by
the censor have transpired in London.
This move is proposal by the i'm
perial government, for an international
conference to deal with trusts.
Baron de Staal, Russian ambassa-
dor in London, ten days ago presented
to the British government note from
M. de Witte, the Russian minister of
finance, which note was sent also to
all the powers that signed the Brus-
sells sugar convention, proposing that
these powers should consider, In COM
mon, means to protect international
commerce against the artificial depres-
sion of prices, not only by government
measures, such as export bounties or
the control of production, but also
by the much more dangerous processes
adopted by trusts, private undertake
ings or cartels, which tend artifcially
to influence the international market.
This explains the mysterious refer
ence made in the Financial Messenger
of st. Petersburg early this week to
a recent note of NJ. de Witte, which,
the paper said, lis an application, in
the economic domain, of the principles
of The Hague conference"

Gently fell heir, and to which his. right

Bassler has been pardoned by the New

last fall, on a charge of burglary. The
story of the crime, as he related it to
the court of pardons, was that while
intoxicated he fell through a store win
dow with no intention of stealing.
Another prisoner, sentenced for ten
years in 1896 on a charge Of breaking
into a postoffice, was paroled iii order
that he might take up the manufacture
of a sewing machine invented by him
while behind the bars. A company
with an authorized capitalization of
81, 100000 has been chartered to manu-
facture the machine. The pardoned
prisoner is said to have received $780,
900 cash and a block of stock in the

HENNEBERRY WILL
HAVE TO STAY OUT
No Chance for Former Professor of
Gaelic at the Catholic
University.

DENVER, Col, July 17.-Bishop
Thomas J. Conaty, rector of the Catho-
lie university at Washington, made a
statement before the convention of the
Ancient Order of Hibernians today in
regard to the deposing of DR.. Richard
Henneberry as professor of Gaelic at
the university, which practically put
an end to the agitation for the profess
sor's reinstatement.
The bishop said the fact that Arch
bishop Ireland and four of the most
prominent and most beloved churchmen
in the United States were the principal
sponsors for the institution was an
evidence to the Irish people that it
would be conducted properly. 1t was
the desire of the college authorities to
continue the Gaelic chair, which had
been established with $4,000 donated
by the Hibernians.
DR.. Bunne was being educated at the
Gaelic schools in Europe for the pur-
pose of taking the chair. AT present o
Gaelic professor from Harvard college,
who had volunteered to teach the Irish
language, was at work in the uniyer-
sity.
The morning session of the biennial
convention of the Ancient Order of Hi
bernians was taken up principally with
an address by Bishop Thomas j. Conaty.
rector of the Catholic university at WASH
ington. Practically the only business
transacted was the adoption of the re-
port of the committee on rules and order
of business. which is similar to that
adopted at the last biennial convention at
Boston.
AT the morning session of the Women's
Auxiliary the question Of forming an in
dependent Organization distinct from the
a. o. II. was discussed. The prevailing
sentiment was that compromise should
be effected that would give the women
an advisory board to work in conjunction
with the national directors of the "A. o. III.
Bishop O naty addressed the women,
urging them to found chair in Trinity
college, one of the institutions connected
with the Catholic university.
The reports of the officers of the An
cient Order of Hibernians were presented
at an executive session.

suddenly found the water tapping at
their doorsteps.
All along the lake front the waves
swept up against breakwaters or over
the beach. Steamers were tossed about
at their docks, smaller craft were
thrown on the shore, boats were brok-
en- and in several. instances loss of life
was narPo<g3y averted.
A wave of heavy atmospheric pres
sure passed over the city and as it
struck the lake moving from west to
east, the water was pushed back With
the pressure released the waves came
rushing back and dashed up over the
land and then receded to the normal
water line.

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, July 17.-If-
the voice and influence of President
Mitchell, of the United Mine Workers,
shall prevail with the members of his
organization, there will be no general
strike of the organization. The chances
of such a step being taken now are
very remote. In his speech in the con-
vention this afternoon Mr.. Mitchell ad-
vised strongly against a strike and
urged that the bituminous miners con-
tinue at work and that a system of as
sessment upon the members of the or
der, which he outlined, be carried into
effect, as the best means of affording
aid and support to the striking anthra-
cite men in the East.

the newspapers will get it just the

ceedings of the convention when 1T
goes into executive session and they
always will, even if they have to buy
their news from some of the gentlemen
who are in favor of an executive seS-
sion."
The speech of Mr.. Reese carried the
day, the vote was reconSidered and it
was decided that the meetings of the
convention would be open to the public.

dress, which was as follows; .a
I'm determining the grave and i'm
portant question which now confrontS
you-namely, the advisability of inau-
gurating a national suspension of coal
mining in defense of our struggling
fellow workers in the anthracite field
Of Pennsylvania, it is imperative that
you should weigh with the greatest
possible care the momentous problem
with which you have to deal. Neither
passion nor prejudice should influence
your action in any particular, and L
sincerely trust that your decision,
whatever it may be, shall carry hope
and inspiration to that great army or
men, women and children in the an
thracite fields who are watching and
praying in expectation that this as

which shall prove sufficient to enable
them to obtain living wages and hu-
name American conditions of employ

Personally, wish to impress upon
you a realization of the fact that their
success will be yours, and their defeat
will be your defeat. Moreover, the de-
struction of the United Mine Workers
organization in the anthracite coal

| greatest possible shock to the Ameri-

of the entire nation are centered on
that contest, the hearts of all liberty
loving, patriotic citizens beat in SYM

great victory will be achieved if the
coal miners themselves will set the ex-
ample and take the initiative by doing
their full duty.
