TROUBLE At HAZlETON.
Special Policeman Is Beaten and
Stabbed.

in the service of the Lehigh Valley Coal
Company, was assaulted and stabbed
while attempting to rescue his son.
William Scheuch, a nonunion work.
man, from mob of about 5000 strikers
in the outskirts of Hazleton. The
trouble occurred at the company's No.
40 colliery, where young Scheuch
worked, in an attempt on the part OF
the strikers. who had gathered from all
parts of the Hazleton region. to frus-
triate the plans of the company for
partial resumption.
Two hundred and fifty nonunion
men had been secured. A majority of
them were taken to the workings in Il
special train. with which the strikers
did not attempt to interfere, but
Scheuch, who lived in this city,
walked from his home toward the
colliery. He fell into the hands of
the pickets and most of the clothing
was torn from his back in the struggle
that followed. When Scheuch's father
rushed to his aid the mob set upon
the elder Scheuch, who finally was
rescued by mine foreman and re-
moved to hospital.
Scheuch was stabbed in the breast
and on each hip, kicked in the alb
domen and struck on the head with
stone. His injuries are not very
serious The effort to prevent work
at the mine was successful.
The report of a resumption at the
Cranberry colliery of A. Pardee & Co.
caused about 500 men to gather near
the mine but no attempt was made to
start work.

GETS TEN YEARS.
H. St. John Dix Sentenced to tho
Penitentiary.

Penitentiary.
Whatcom, Aug. 26.-Judge Neterer,
who heard the argument OF the attor-
neys for H. St. John Dix, charged with
wrecking two banks in this county, for
a new trial, overruled their motion and
sentenced him to ten years in the pen
itentiary, the limit OF the law in this
state for the crime of bank wrecking.
Col. Lindsay OF Seattle presented the
argument in favor of a new trial. He
assigned errors which he claimed were
sufficient to justify the court in setting
aside the verdict. They were: The in
sufficiency of the evidence, the admit
ting of the memoranda where were
quoted the minutes of the meeting OF
the directors and of which the defendant
was elected president, the insufiiciency
OF the information. County Attorney
Meade represented the state and replied
briefly to Col. Lindsay. In sentencing
the prisoner Judge Neterer reviewed
the case at length.

PANAMA CANAL
French Court; Decide Two I'm.
portant Points About Legal.
ity Of Its Purchase.

Washington, Aug. 25.-The investi-
CATION in Paris OF the French Panama
Canal Companv's proposed sale OF prop
erty and rights to the United States
has proceeded far enough to justify a
strong belief that clear title can be
acquired, and that, in the event OF a
satisfactory treaty with Colombia, the
Isthmian canal will be built on the
Panama route. No official OF the govern
ment is willing to gay this in so many
words, however, and those who are
especially charged with the complex
and difficult inquiry at the French
capital keenly appreciate the fine ques-
tions in law and equity that must be
solved. The French court OF law,
which was charged with the protection
of creditors of the failed De Lesseps
Company, and by which the iiquidator,
or receiver, was appointed, has decided
at least two of the main points which
the president of the United States has
to consider in his negotiations for the
purchase conditionally authorized by
congress. Inasmuch as the liquidator
appointed by the French court is a trus-
tee representing creditors of the former
canal company. who we're to receive 60
per cent. of the proceeds OF canal opera
tions from the Hutin company, it be-
comes serious question whether he
has power to vacate the rights OF these
creditors and substitute therefor an
equitable share in the proceeds of the
present company's sale to the United
States.
1t was also questioned whether the
court had the power to authorize the
trustee to do this. The court has decid-
ed both uuestiOns in the affirmative

Vast Endowment for School on InduItssA

Vast Endowment for School on InduItsial
Lines.
The new Carnegie Polytechnic School,
whose buildings Will soon be erected in
Pittsburg. will be more richly endowed
than any other educational institution
in the world; 1t will coItain room for
the instruction of o3er 100000 stu
dents, on the broadcast and most practi.
cal lines Of Industrial science and art,
and commercial law and practice, and
Its professors will be men of the high
est rank In their respective fields of
learning. 1t is to be complete In Its
curriculum Of practical instruction, and
will be worldwide In Its scope of edu-
catiOnal usefulness. 1t will be the
largest training school for artisans ever
known, and will make Pittsburg noted
as the center of advanced practical ed
ucation. This is the comprehensive
Idea Of Andrew Carnegie its founder.
He announces that he will donate $685.
100000 to place the school OIL working
basis.
Some idea of the magnitude Of the
operations which the school will be en-
abled to undertake, through its large
endowment, may be Cleaned from the
fact that Pratt Institute, Brooklyn, rec
ognized as one Of the leading institu-
tions Of Its kind, II not the leading one,
possesses an endowment fund OF only
$2,00OOO0, while the buildings and
equipments cost only about $S50,0O0 ad-
ditional While $6,OOOOO0 may now be
used for site, buildings. and equipment
Of the Carnegie school In Pittsburg. 1t
is not certain that this amount will be
the limit.

follows:
I'VE. the undersigned members Of the
