IN A BOX CAR
Man and Wife Rode to AIlianee-To
Workhouse by Trolley.

Alliance, Sept. 5.-A man and wo-
man claiming to be Harry Moore and
wife of Leetonia, were arrested by
Railroad officer Joe Wier here this
afternoon as they were coming into
the city on freight train. The cou.
pie were taken from box car n
which they said they had ridden from
Leetonia to Alliance in search of
work.
From all appearances both had
been drinking heavily and the twJ
presented a sorry spectacle of youth
gone wrong. The woman says she is
but 19 years of age and that she mar.
lied Moore in Leetonia two years ago
She shows signs of former beauty and
refinement and her speech is perfect
The man seems to be no better than
the ordinary bum and while in charge
of the officers pleaded continually for
g drink
The two were arraigned before May
or Walker and were fined for their
offense and on their inability to fur
nish the necessary funds were taken
to the Canton workhouse this evening
by railroad officers.

COTTON TELLS Of
THE ATTEMPT TO
DESTROY GATES
Says He Was Hired to Do the Job
by Ike SheeIy Who Promise,
Him $50.
sHEELY is WORTH OVER
A HUNDRED THOUSAND

. Toledo, o., Sept. 5.-'I suppose I
might as well tell you now, as you will
soon find it out" With this as an
opening sentence, Riley Cotton contin-
ued and made full and complete con-
fession of the part he and Park Wright
played in the dastardly attempt to
blow up the state reservoir at st. Marys
last May.
In his confession he says that Ike
Sheely, who was recently arrested, was
the one who made the deal with him.
"Sheely, who is worth more than a
hundred thousand dollars. came to me
and offered me $3.50 to blow out the
gates of the reservoir" he said. AT
first l stalled, but being hard up, f.
nally yielded, Sheely told me who his
accomplices were, but l dealt with
him."
Cotton then tells how, with the as
sistance of Wright, he rowed up to the
ledu6dlSS anu pldCSu JWO lOV-pOuuu
charges of dynamite that had been
stolen from a nearby stone quarry in
the gatehead, and how but one had ex-
ploded.
Had they both gone off" he said.
There would have been terrible
slaughter of the people below, as the
gates could never have stood the
double charge"
Continuing, Cotton said: Il saw Shee-
ly few days after and he said his pals
were kicking because it was poor job,
and insisted that il be tried again. He
said several ether wealthy men we're
in with him. l have not been paid all
my money yet"
The testimony Of Wright is practi-
cally a corroboration OF that of Cotton.
So far there have been 13 arrests in
the case, and most of the people are
prominent and wealthy. Had 1t not
been for Cotton talking to friend on
the deal while drunk, it is likely that
the murderous attempt would never
have been discovered
:, At a preliminary trial today Isaac
Lee and John Sheely were bound over
to the gand jury in $4,000 bail each.
The state board of public works Is the
prosecutor.

HER CONSCIENCE
Prompted Woman to Restore Money
After Many Years.

Bert D. Ashbaugh, who is employed
at Abt's store, received a letter Mon
day from a certain woman of Canton
contained $l1. Mr.. Ashbaugh, about
1884, had and 10-Cent store in the
Oberly Block, on the site now occupied
by the First National Bank, and in the
missive he received yesterday an ex-
planation was given that while the
writer was clerk in his store she took
$40 from him. She said in the letter
that she did not know exactly how
much she had taken, but was positive
that the amount did not exceed $40.
Her conscience being guilty, she re-
turned the money after keeping it
about 20 years, but added to it 81 for
interest.
Mr.. Ashbaugh accepted the money
and was glad to know that the wom-
ans conscience had been aroused.

REVOLT IN CAUCASUS

st. Petersburg, Sept. 6.-The revolt
in Caucasus is growing, and the troops
seem powerless to hold in check the
patches, from Tifiis during the night
state that the whole eastern part OF
Caucasus is being terrorized by the
Tartar refugees from Baku, Elisabet-
pot and Shusha districts. Details from
Shusha show that a series of engage
ments have been fought from behind
regular positions, the Armenians and
Tartars attacking each other and at
tempting to carry the positions, so that
they will be left with a free hand to
sack the towns or their enemies and
kill all who fall in their way. One
town was assaulted and 200 houses
burned to the ground.
The governor of Baku sent several
subordinate officers to the two oppos-
ing factions in an endeavor to stop the
fighting. The officers were greeted
with a storm of bullets from both the
Armenians and Tartars, and with the
hasty withdrawal of the governors
peacemakers the two factions recon-
menced their fighting with redoubled
fury.
The official account of the casualties
during the outbreak is 200
Private advices, however, are much
higher and 1t is said that at least 5000
people have lost their lives in the re-
volt since its inception several weeks
ago.
The news from Baku is more alarm
ing every hour. The factory quarter is
aflame and innumerable other incendi-
aries keep the troops on the constant
move to put out the fires. The troops
are acting with the utmost yigor, but
seem to be unsuccessful In restoring
order.
Armed rioters attacked the oil works
in Palakhan, suburb of Baku, yester-
day and forced the soldiers to retire af-
ter several hours of hot fighting. The
torch was then applied to the huge oil
tanks and they have been burning
throughout the night.
Tartar bands are securing the coun-
try, numbering and pillaging the farm
ers. Many cottages and farm houses
have been abandoned. the inhabitants
seeking places of safety. Famine is
adding its horror to the situation
through the whole of Caucasia.

Mldshlpman Jackson,s PunIshmen nd.

Washington. ID. c., Sept, 5.-Mid-
shipman Jackson, who belongs to dis
tinguished Virginia family and recent
ly court-martialed and sentenced to dis
missal from the service for absence
without leave, may have his punish
ment commuted to reduction by one
class, He pleaded guilty when brought
to trial. Strong appeals have been
made to the President for mitigation of
Jackson's sentence, and it is understood
here tnat he will yield to this persua-
sion because of the offenders youth
1t is likely that the President will
require Jackson to serve three years at
sea instead of two. and take rank in
the class below that in which he gradu-
ated.

tionary soldier and an aide-de-camp of

ton was we'll delivered by Miss Eva

delphia. Among the descendants pres
ent were Lavid Lower of Larwell, Ind;
David Wolf, wife and daughter, of
Robertsville. and MarCellus Zedaker,
wife and mother of Youngstown. 1t
was decided to erect suitable monu-
ment in the old Sanor cemetery to
mark the resting place of the first set
tier.
The spot is now marked only by a
sandstone monument upon which the
inscription Is almost iliegible. Tho
following committee was appointed to
arrange details for the erection of the
monument each member being a de-
scendaut and representing one of the
pioneer children: Lyman Sanor, Jac-
OBJ Sanor, J. Nj. Sanor, l.. B. Matthias,
Judge S. J. Firestone, Jesse White
leather, Hon. d. w. Crist, Marcellus

RUSSIAN THANKSGIVING
Services at Portsmouth Ended In an
Ovation.

Portsmouth, N. H., Sept. 5.-The Rus
sian thanksgiving services at Christ
church after the signing of the treaty
ended in an ovation. The edifice was
filled before 5 o'clock, except for the
news reserved for the Russian ENJOYS
and members of their suite and several
invited guests. Thousands lined the
sidewalks, and the paths leading to the
doors. 1t was Sis O'Clock before the
first diplomat apeared, that of the giant
frame of M. Pokotiloff, Russian minis
ter to Pekin.
When NJ Witte and Baron Rosen
appeared they were greeted by the wav-
ing of handkerchiefs and the clapping
of hands. AS they left the edifice to
enter their automobile en- route to their
hotel, the greeting took more demon-
strative form. Men and women crowd
ed about them, and cheers broke forth.
It soon became pandemonium OF ju-
bilation. The ENJOYS heartily clasped
the outstretched hands of those near
est them and bowed in acknowledge
ment of the greeting from the hundreds
who were unable to approach to the
line of enthusiastic human beings that
fianked the distinguished men and
blocked their pathway as they slowly
made their way to their conveyance.
1t was a scene as memorable as it was
impressive and will long live In the
minds OF the five thousand people pres
ent
Assistant Secretary Peirce was the
first of the distinguished party to enter
the church. Then came the members
of the Russian suite singly and by
twos and threes. Baroness Rosen and
her daughter sat behind them to the
left of the auditorium. Mrs. Potter,
wife of Bishop Potter, entered alone
and found some trouble In being seated,
the usher not recognizing her.

Then came the governor and city Of
ficials of Portsmouth, Rear Admiral
Mead, commandant of the navy yard,
and Capt Winslow of the Mayflower
and his officers.
At 500 o'clock, half an hour after
the time fixed for the peace service to
begin, the approach of the envoys was
the signal for applause. AS M. Witte
and Baron Rosen entered the vast aud
ience arose and remained standing un-
til the two diplomatics had passed up
the side aisle and were seated inside of
the railing, with their backs toward
the congregation.
The professional followed the volun-
tary, the people again rising and re-
naming standing until the choir boys
and visiting Russian priests from the
st. Nicholas cathedral, in New York
city, and Bishop Potter had circled the
auditorium and had passed within the
chancel. The rector, Rev. G. Lebrine,
led, and Bishop Potter, with steady
tread and clad in his ecclesiastical
robes, came last. When the procession
al left the order was reversed. Holy,
Holy Lord" was sung when 1t en-
tered; as 1t departed, my Country,
'Tis of Thee" was taken up by the
congregation and sung with glad ac-
claim.
The service was known as the festi-
val song and was of the high episcopal
form. There was chanting of tie pray
ers and of the beatitudes, with its
Blessed are the peace makers, for they
shall see God" the magnificent chant
ing of the creed, prayer, the national
Russian hymn, and a solemn TIE Deum
by the visiting Russian priests from
New York cathedral of st. Nicholas.
Twilight was coming on as the visit
ing archpriest arose and the Russian
priests and choir formed semi-circle
within the chancel. The incense that
had been burned filled the auditorium
with pleasing perfume. The lights
within the chancel threw into bold re-
lief the huge stone vases, with their
profusion Of hydranges. golden glow
and ferns and the shining leaves of the
palms that hid the railing. But they
did not dim the burning candles or de-
tract from the mellowing light that
shone through the magnificent stained
glass windows in the rear of the chan
Gel. From white to pink, it glowed; !;
then to yellow and dark blue, harmon
izing the coloring of the glasses and
tinting them with the skill of Mu-
rillo, each line of the "Crucif1xion,"
the Ascension" and the "Resurrec-
tion," which it represented, adding ad-
ditional impressiveness to the ecclesi-
astical Kaleidoscope Of color, with its
background of subdued tints in the
auditorium.
At the conclusion of the TIE Duem,
M. Witte and Baron Rosen walked for
ward at the command of the arch
priest and kissed the cross. An ad-
dress was delivered in which they were
praised for their efforts in bringing
about peace. Prayers for those who
fell in battle followed. The congrega-
ton stood during the address.
The ENJOYS were dismissed and took
their places with the members of their
suite.
Bishop Potter pronounced the bene-
diction, and "Our Country, 'Tis of
Thee" was sung as the professional de-
nortad
