Curtis, Mansfield o., man, and Me-
linda Abbott were acquitted yesterday
from the charge of bigamy. Curtis
was divorced at Mansfield, o.. from
the woman he married at Toronto.
Later he married Melinda Abbott at
Niagara Falls, N Y.
The crown attorney endeavored to
show that Curtis, as British subject,
had gone to the United States to
be married a second time while his
wife still lived. The Judge considered
that there had been no proof of this.
nor that Curtis had, in suing for dr.
vorce in the United States, sought to
evade the Canadian laws. He charged
the jurors to bring in a verdict of not
guilty and both were discharged.

FORM new SCALE.
West Virginia Miners Will De-
mand an Increased Wage
After April1.

Wheeling, w. Va, Jan. 16.-At their
convention in Huntington, this state,
the West Virginia miners formulated
new scale, which the operators will
be asked to sign on April 1. The OPP
orators are invited to attend the joint
conference of the workers and opera
tives of the competitive fields at In
dianapolis the last of this month.
West Virginia operators have not been
present at these conferences since
1887, the year subsequent to their in
spection.
Failing to attend the Indianapolis
gathering or grant the concessions
asked may precipitate the greatest
strike West Virginia has ever seen,
for the men we're never so well organ.
izzd, but control of the principal fields
by the steel trust and railroads makes
them face complication. The scale
is lower than the Ohio rate, but coal is
said to be easier mined in West Vir-
ginia.

Lorain Boy Accidentally Killed
While Protecting q School
House Against Thieves.

Lorain, O., Jan. 16.-Walter Camp
bell, aged Is, came to sad and un-
timely death Wednesday in the West
Side school house at Elyria. He with
Lee Hunkey, had been asked to stay
in the school house by the principal,
Charles Williams, to keep lookout
that no one stole a skeleton which had
recently been added to the school.
They borrowed an old navy pistol be-
longing to the janitor and thus outfit
ted prepared to protect the skeleton.
During the night the boys took turns
going down into the basement to fire
up the furnace. 1t was toward morn
ing when Walter Campbell went down
for the last time and as he stepped over
to throw a shovel of coal the revolver
slipped from the belt he wore and fell
to the floor. The conclusion caused
the weapon to explode, the ball pene-
trating Walters abdomen. After q
short time he began to lapse into un-
consciousness and he died at o'clock
this morning.

That mystery over the continued
reports that President G. M. Schwab
of the United States Steel corporation,
is playing the tables heavily at Monte
Carlo, taken in connection with Mr..
Schwabs strenuous denials that he has
visited the Casino there at all, causes
increasing wonderment on this side
of the water as the week grows older.
The morning papers added another
chapter. A New York World dispatch
from Monte Carlo says:
The report that Mr.. Schwab had
cabled the Associated Press in New
York denying sensational" playing
has created unbounded astonishment
here where every one had seen the
venturing of great sums by the steel
magnate. The demurrer by Mr..
Schwab has excited more talk than
any happening within 10 years. Mr..
Schwab won, hand running, two bets
of $1,000 each yesterday, stalking the
dllO"tu Oh d Sh pOs'i
coups. Such playing is regarded as
distinctly sensational, and that has
been the character Of his play every
day since he came here.
When Mr.. Schwab's denial first ap-
peared it was supposed the early
stories were the work of sensational
newspaper fakirs. The thing has pass
ed that stage, however. Men who
know G. M. Schwab well smile at the
thought that he would wire an emphat-
ic denial to the Associated Press If
the reports about his playing were
true. The solution to the mystery will
probably be found to lie in the fact
that some enterprising American, who
looks like the steel magnate, has a
little money and wants the prestige, is
posing as Schwab. and that the whole
colony of Monte Carlo has been taken
in.

Diamond Match Company of

Akron, O., Jan. 16.-Harry willard
one Of the mechanical engineers en-
ployed by the Diamond Match COM
pany, left Akron, Wednesday for
Manila, where he will superintend the
erection of plant for the company.
Owing to the nature of the climate
the buildings will not be as substan-
tial as those erected in other coun-
tries, but the new plant will be as well
prepared to turn out matches as any
other.
The Diamond company has been

nopolize the business in that portion

(Staff Specially
Alliance, Jan. l6.-In the brief ac-
count Of the death Of William Lands,
which occurred at the Massillon asylum
there appears to be somewhat Of SEN
sation. Mr.. Lands was taken to the
asylum some time ago. Last Tuesday
Mrs. Lands visited the hospital and
found her husband in serious condi-
tion.. A relative of Mr.. Lands was in
terviewed this morning and gives the
following statement:
Mrs. Landis is much wrought up
over the affair. On last Tuesday even
ing she called at the hospital 10 see her
husband. She found him suffering ter
ribly from burns evidently received by
his having been placed in sitting po-
sition in scalding water. She inquired
of the attendants how her husband hap
pened to be in that condition, but they
were reticent and claimed to know
nothing of the occurrence"
Nov, you see, Mr.. Landis was en-
tirely unable to leave his bed. He had
to be carried like child, and we can
see no possible way that he could have
been scaided except that an attendant,
In perhaps giving him sitz bath failed
to watch the temperature of the water.
Mrs. Landis came home Tuesday even
ing, hut early next morning word came
that death had relieved her husbands
sufferings."

GOSSIP OF ANTE-ROOM and LOBBY
ABOUT The STATECAPIT0L BUILDING
Incidents Of the Naming of q Senator.-.
Worried Over MckInnon's Committees
personal and Political.
BY Der E. WILLIAMSON.
tStaf Correspondent)

(Staf Correspondent.)
~ OLUMBUS, Jan. 1e.-The compli-
~ ment paid Senator Foraker by peo-
pie of Columbus and of Ohio generally
was one that he probably appreciated.
There was more of crush to hear his
speech acknowledging the honor than
there was to hear Governor Nash ac-
cept the governors chair.
The ladies paid their respects to Sem
ator Foraker by their presence, and by
the elaborateness of their toilets and
the beauty of their faces. The central
gallery held notable company of men
and women.
Representative and Mrs. Pollock,
during the inaugural exercises and at
the ceremonies incident to the re-elec-
tion of United States Senator Foraker
entertained Mr.. Pollock's father and
mother, Mr.. and Mrs. John Pollock, OF
North Lawrence. r. Il. Pollock and
wife, cousins of the representative,
were also his guests, as was also Mrs.
Elizabeth Ray. of Canton.
-
The speaker is still keeping the men,
bers busy guessing what places they
are to get on the committees. Business
cannot proceed until committees are
named.
Senator Foraker was not the only
presidential possibility in the gather
ing. There was. for instance. Tom
johnson.
The decorator of the house of repre-
seItatives had taken note of the notice
served that Hanna was to be elected
two years hence, and had added to the
collection of pictures in the hall, that
of the junior senator. Between the
pleasant countenance of Foraker and
for forbidding face of Hanna, was
placed a good likeness of the placid,
kindly features of the beloved McKin-
ley.
A number of fashily dressed black
women lent color to the occasion We'd
nesday. 1t probably reminded Senator
Foraker of his beloved Porto Rico, ex-
cept possibly in the matter of dress.
The senator has not taught the people OF
the country of which legislative SPELL
binders declared he was the father,
to dress extensively, if at all.
Foraker's address was made to fall
fiatter than 1t otherwise would by the
fact that a local paper, the Citizen,
went to press with his speech an hour
before it was delivered. A great many
had read it before the senator had
even arrived in the chamber, or before
the joint session had been held This
was through a misunderstanding in The
time of holding the session. 1t was
one of those newspaper misadventures
that occur in the best regulated plants,
and there was no intention to act in
bad faith with contemporaries nor to
embarass Senator Foraker.
