EIGHT REFUGEE S

Pittsburg, Pa, April 3O.-Eight
refugees from San Francisco were
looked after by the local police to-
day and were later sent on their way
east. They are: Robert j. BarkilIe
and his sister Helena, of 118th street
New York; Mr.. and Mrs. Charles
Wheeler and Howard Wheeler, five
years old, of Brooklyn, N. Y; Agnes
Glover, a hospital nurse of Bangor.
Me; William Mcintyre, a vaudeville
performer, of New York, and Charles
Richardson, of Boston, Mass. Harold
Wheeler is blind from injuries he re-
ceiVed in the devasted city, and Miss
Barkelle is suffering from two broken
ribs and Il badly lacerated scalp. Her
vocal cords are also affected and she
cannot speak. The others are not in
jured.
The party arrived in Pittsburg PEN
niless but with free transportation to
their homes. They are suffering great
ly from hunger but when they asked
for food at the Union depot restau-
rant 1t was refused them as no orders
had been issued by the Pennsylvania
railroad to feed refugees. The party
then went to the police station and
later through the efforts of the pe.
lice were supplied with food at the
depot restaurant. The party was then
sent on their way, the police paying
for Pullman tickets for all, the west
ern railroads which furnished free
transportation not supplying berths.

FROM MANY STATES
Bishops Gathered to Do Honor to the
Centenary of the Catholic Ca
thedral-Celebration Ends.

Baltimore Md, April 30.-The CEN
tenary of the Catholic cathedral, which
was begun yesterday with most
brilliant spectacle. in the procession
before the high mass in the morning,
ended this evening with the public
reception to the visiting prelates.
1t was matter of general regret
that illness prevented Secretary of the
Navy Bonaparte from welcoming the
visitors in an address, as had been
expected, but this did not detract from
the impressiveness of the scene in
which Cardinal Gibbons, in his full
robes, and the archbishops and bishops
in their purple robes stood in strong
relief against the handsome toilets OF
the ladies.
AS Cardinal Gibbons entered the en-
tire audience, which was made up of
the leading citizens of Baltimore, stood
up and greeted His Eminence with ap-
plause. The cardinal then took a seat
in the centre OF the stage and on
either side were such of the dignitar-
les as still renamed, number, among
them Mgr. Diomede Faleonio, having

Washington, d. c., April 30.-The
nomination of George Clark as post
master of Canton was made over the
head of Cortelyou and was as much a
surprise to Clark as it was to Post
master Frease. Clark had about CIV
en- up the contest, as Cortelyou had
stated that he was in favor of continu-
ing the old postmaster in the office.
Some of Clark's friends decided to take
up the matter over the head of the
postmaster general, and the situation
was placed before the president him
self. 1t was urged that it was neces-
sary for the president to do something
to show his confidence in Representa-
tive Kennedy and that, as the latter
had voted for the rate bill in accord
ance with the wishes of the president,
he was now entitled to consideration.

returned home. On the left sat Arch
bishop Glennon, of St. Louis, and on
the right Archbishop Ryan, Of Phila-
delphia, while other prelates near by
were Archbishop Messner, of Milwau-
kee; Archbishop Blenk, of New Or
leans; Bishops Allen, of Mobile; Car
roll, of Helena; Monaghan, of Will
mington, Del; Burke, of Kansas;
Northrop, of Charleston and Hoban
of Scranton.
Bishop J. Donahue, of Wheeling,
was the only speaker. He referred to
the prelates present in pleasantries,
calling them by name and as each one
rose in response to the compliment,
cheers rang through the hall. Striking
a serious vein, he proceeded to give
an optimistic view of the future of
the Catholic church in America. At
the conclusion of the address the en-
tire audience, including the dignitar-
les Joined in singing MY Country
'Tis of Thee" an orchestra furnished
instrumental music. =

OVER THE HEAD Of CORTELY YOU
George Clark Was Appointed Postmaster of Can
TOMAS Much of a Surprise 10 Him as if Was
TO FreaSe.

1t is understood that Senator Foraker
and Speaker Cannon were enlisted in
the contest, and the president sud-
denly decided that he would exercise
his prerogative and make the appoint
ment.
Walter Wellman, the newspaper cor
respondent, is relation by marriage
with Clark, and also personal friend
of the president He is credited with
doing some of the heavy work to land
the prize for Clark.
Kennedy made a personal appeal to
the president, and made the claim that
if the appointment was not made pri-
or to the congressional convention in
his district he would be placed in a
hazardous position and might be de-
feated for denomination. 1t was this
plea that won the day for Clark.

THE STATE WON
In the First Rund in It's Fight Against
the Bridge Trust.

s'S JS''aSS
Cleveland, o., April 30.-The state
won the first round here today in its
fight against the bridge trust when
Judge Schwan denied a motion of
the King Bridge Company to strike
out certain allegations in the suit to
recover damages. The clauses to which
the company objected accused it of
being the part of a combination re-
stricting trade and defrauding Ashta-
bula county in the letting of bridge
contracts.
Certain causes of action which set
forth that the companies cut up con-
tracts so that the county commission
ers could let them without competi-
tive bids were also objected TO by the
King Company.
The attorneys sor the state fought
against the motions so that the evil
dence concerning these operations may
be presented to the jury.

Because his mOther-in-law did this

to kill the said Marietta Haney be
cause she took the side of her mother
in the quarrels.
1t appears that about week ago
Haney got into scrap with his wife
and she left him, going to one of the
neighbors for several days, and when
she went back home she found her
trunk and her clothes on the porch
where her husband had put them the
first night she was away. 1t was at
this time that she says that her hus
band struck her on the head and
threatened to kill her. Haney says
that he did not do so, but that he
threatened to put his wife's daughter
out of the house if she did not keep
quiet.
The war waxed long and hot before
Justice Barrick, one side charging one
thing and the other side denying il,
until it was very late for a justice
court to be open, but His Honor
finally decided, amid the gloom of the
setting sun, that he would take the
case under adVisement and would an

SOME OF THE DEALS.
1t developed yesterday that the
Queen City Savings Bank and Trust
company in the Carew building, holds
$4,000 of the forged Wood county
(Ohio) bonds. These bonds are in the
bank as security for loan made per
sonally to A. l.. Rich. 1t was also
learned yesterday that when the rep
resentative of the Queen City Saw
ings Bank and Trust company went
to Milwaukee to make the loan 10
Messrs. Briggs, Rich and Woolley last
February on $4,000 of these worthless
bonds the bank charged the brokers
$4,000 cash for making the thirty-day
loan and per cent interest. In other
words, the bank charged $5275 for
loan of $4,000 for 80 days. AS the
brokers had to have cash quickly they
agreed to the banks terms. This loan
as stated was taken up at it's maturity
and new loan on these forged bonds
made by the Union Savings Bank and
Trust company, which still holds
these bonds. Mr.. Rich later got the
Queen City Savings Bank and Trust
company to let him have a loan OF
$4,000 of these worthless bonds.
These the bank now holds.
1t was also ascertained yesterday
that Briggs and WOolley nave been
unable to liquidate in any part the
loan of $4,000 at the Union Savings
bank, which is secured by the forged
Woods county bonds and combined
notes of Briggs, Rich and Woolley.
1t has left Briggs and Woolley abso-
lutely penniless, not having means to
pay their Office force, while Rich is
in hiding with several thousand dol.
lars of his ill-gotten gains.

THE BELOIT DEAL.

1t is further stated that there has
been deposited at the Union Savings
Bank and Trust company $4,000 of
the Beloit (Wis.) gas deal to protect
this bank, but these bonds have no
value unless the deal is closed, AMI
the Union Savings Bank and Trust
company-may now have to come for
ward to complete the financing of the
deal in order to protect itself against
the $55,000 forged Wood county Sonds
When this has taken place the $685.
600 forged bonds will be destroyed
and the Beloit deal bonds will take
their place as security for the loan.
The $4,000 loan made by James
vile (Wis.) bank with these bogus
bonds as security has been paid, and
half the amount due that bank on the
Beloit deal There still remains in
the hands of banks $4,000 of these
bogus bonds, which are held as Sc
curity for loans.
Intimate friends of Rich are trying
to figure out why he committed the
forgeries. They say that he has more
than enough assets to pay the amount
of his forgeries. He drew big sal
ary as president Of the John Steptoe
company here, in addition to owning
more than a controlling interest in
the stock Of the company He also
had large dividends paid on this
stock. He is a director of the Third
