FAIR STENoGRAPHER IN
PLOT TO ROB EMPLOYER
Young Woman and Her Sweetheart
Plan to Assault Rich Manufactures.

NEW YORK, Nov. 6.-An alleged
plot, which might have resulted in the
death of Samuel Lewis, a clothing man
ufacturer In Mercer street, has been
disclosed by information which reached
District Attorney Jerome a few days
ago. Edward Devau, employe of pri-
vate detective agency, is under arrest
on charges Of attempt to commit grand
larceny, assault and robbery. Miss Ella
Eagan, a handsome young Stenograph-
er, also is in the hands of the police.
She is being held IN the house of de-
tention as witness, charged with hav-
ing knowledge of the plot.
Several days ago Walter Nelson call
ed upon the district attorney and de-
clared he had information of plot to
rob Mr.. Lewis. Nelson said he was
employed by a private detective con-
Germ and that Devau, a clerk in the Of
flee, had tried to hire him to assault
Lewis. Agents of the district attor-
ney took the matter in charge. Nelson
was instructed to accept the PROPOSE
ton. He managed so well that one Of
the county detectives was taken into
the scheme. 1t appears, according to
Nelson, that Miss Eagan, Devau's
sweetheart, was employed by Lewis.
She told Devau that the manufacturer
frequently remained in his Office until
late in the evening and then walked
down from the top floor through dark
stairway with large sums of money.
1t was planned to strike him down
with a piece of lead pipe. Nelson says
he was instructed to hit him, and if
he had done so with the weapon Devau
furnished, Lewis certainly would have
been killed. The scheme was put into
operation. Nelson and the county de-
tective, who was posing as an expert
criminal, entered the Mercer street
building, while Devau remained outside
on the watch.
Other police agents were secreted in
a building opposite, and when Devau
had taken his post he was arrested. He

LIVERPOOL, Nov 6.-Lord Goschen,
formerly chancellor of the exchequer,
speaking here today, said he favored
retaliation under extraordinary cir
cumstances requiring heroic legisla-
ton, but he was opposed to giving the
government a mandate authorizing re-
taliatory tariffs. The speaker added
that Joseph Chamberlain's policy was
dangerous and that it was unstates-

not prepared to accept it as being I'M

Williston's Ignite Coal.

TIE fuel question: il one that is now
auitating the public mind throughout
the whole length and breadth Of the
u:;itrd States. and many are the specu.
lations advanced concerning the out,
Gene. Owing to the coal combines and
the stikes, the. general masses in thf
east are suffering more or less from lack
Of coal. and from every city the cry fot
fuel goes up from the middle and poor-'
er classes. which is indeed touching to
tender and responsive hearts, and calls
,orth the sympathy of those who are
more fortunately situated. Among
nearly all the states in the Union, North
Dakota IL PROBABLY the least affected bv
the great coal famine that now exists in
the United States. It is well-known
fact that in the western part OF North
Dakota, and especially in the Missouri
river valley, Ignite coal abounds in IN.
limited quantities, but nowhere in all
this vast region is the quantity greater.
or the quality better. than in Williams
county. For several years Ignite coal
has. been mined here mainly for local
use, but during the past SIX months.
three or four large mines have been
opened. and are worked bv large forces
of men, not alone for local purposes,
but for shipment to points in the state
less favored by nature in the matter of
fuel. The first mine in the vicinity
of WilIiston to be opened and
worked for commercial purposes, IA that
owned by r. N. Miller of the Williston
Fuel company. situated about four miles
from town. which embraces \ vein
about ten feet thick. but the extent of
which is absolutely unknown.
The second mine 10 that opened up
and operated by the Pioneer Coal COM
panv, situated near Spring Brook, which
is of eqnal depth of the Miller mine,
and probably Of equal extent. which. as
we said before, is unknown. This mine
is operated by the Pioneer Coal COM
panv mainly for comm ercial purposes.
and is meeting with q success far beyond
the most sanguine anticipation OF it's
owners. Mr.. J. C. Dryer. one Of the
owners of the mine. and the manager of
the business. informs the Graphic that
for the past sixty days they have been
shipping on an average of about three
car loads day, and this week they have
received orders for one train load to be
sent to Winters & Ames ut Minneapolis.
besides several orders from the Grafton
Flour Mills, the Grand Forks Light and
Power Co., of Grand Forks, the Valley
Lumber Co.. of Hillsboro; Miller 4
Baker. and the Deaf and Dumb school
at Devils Lake. besides many smaller
orders from other points. These facts
demonstrate that the fuel problem, 90
lar as North Dakota is concerned At
least, is solved by the development Of
the Williston mines, and if the the bust
ness is handled with judicious care,
Williston will become the largest ship
ping point of Ignite coal Of any town in
the state. The coal is OF the very best
quality, and every test it. hHs undergone
has strengthened the pubIic's faith il
its utility as fuel, not only for domestic
use, but for steam heating as well.
