People Gazed IS Pretty Miss Goldie
Was Taken to Police Station.

Findlay. o., Feb 21.-The people OF

ruary Is, 1903 The charge is preferred
in an affidavit signed by Chief of Police
John L. Kramer. Miss Cantner is said
to be the daughter of poor but highly
respected country people residing near
McComb, Hancock county.
Information was conveyed to Chief OF
Police Kramer by suspicious neighbors,
and the former Immediately instituted
an investigation.
Before Mayor Metca1fe Miss Cantner
pleaded innocence, and in default of bail
was sent to the city prison to await a
preliminary hearing Wednesday, morn
ing. The arrest of Miss Cantner and

lection by well known men, both mar
ried and single, of this city, and by men
of Toledo, Piqua, Mansfield and several
other large cities.
Chief Kramer stated that he had sus-
pected an existing intimacy between
Miss Cantner and the aged attorney
named in the affidavit upon which the
warrant for the formers arrest is based
but that now, he says, he has conclus-
i've evidence and viii personally prose-
cute the case in the interest of moral
ity.

Bradstreet's says:
Winter weather has retarded but not
checked spring jobbing trade which,
despite drawbacks, is still far in ad
vance of a year ago. Retail business
has been more noticeably effected and
buying has lessened temporarily. This
has also further accentuated the vex-
ing transportation problem. The favor
able side of the weather situation is
unquestiOnably the heavy snow, which
has covered the entire surplus produc-
ing winter wheat belt, putting the plant
temporarily at least out Of danger
from unreasonable changes. Other de-
VelOpmenfs Of the week were favorable.
The price situation, taken as whole
is remarkable one. Counter produce,
butter and eggs, has displayed excep-
tional strength, while the majority of
staples retain their steadiness except
where further advances are noted as in
the case of cotton goods, which are
very strong at the highest prices in
years Collections are rather better as
a whole, ranging from fair to good the
country over. Industry is active. linn
tied only by the facilities.
The shoe leather trade is rather irregu-
lar. Leather is reported quiet except at
the west, where considerable sales at fun
prices are reported by the tanners The
sugar market has been unsettled, but the
change on the week has been d slight adj
vance on refined despite stories that job
bers are recruiting prices. Coffee remains
steady at close to the lowest price on rec
ord.
Consumption still leads production in the
cruder forms of iron and steel.

SLOAN roo PROMINENT
And Trevelyan Doubts the Story of
His Reinstatement.

In writing of the chances of Tod Sloan
being reinstated by the Jockey club OF
Great Britain. Francis Trevelyan eX-
presses his views as follows:
The rumor grows that Tod Sloan IS
to get his license again this year and
win be able, if he so wills to ride on the
English turf. 1 assuredly hope that 1t
is SO, but at that 1 have to take the lib
erty of doubling it.
AS a matter of fact, whatever one
may think of the cases of the other
American Jockeys who have got into
trouble on this side of the Atlantic, one
has to concede that Sloan has given the
authorities no chance to regard him in
the light of a penitent. l Will not say
that one does not admire the irreDres-
sible little man from Indiana for this
very thing. but the grand moguls of a
game like racing are apt to take an
other view Of the matter.
Sloan has shot pigeons, has brought
French horses over to England and
(almost) pulled off magnificent coups
with them. has notored himself into
prominence. even # he had never been
known as a jockey. and has generally
kept himself perpetualiy in the public
eye till one is inclined to doubt whether
the authorities viii ever again care to
put him in good standing, no matter
what one may think of him personally"
