Louisville People Fear Losing the Plant of the
Buckeye Jack Manufacturing Co.

Louisville, Aug. 21.-The business
men of Louisville are somewhat dis
turbed over the prospect of losing the
works of the Buckeye Jack Manufac-
turing company. 1t has become known
that this company expects soon to
enlarge its business and that it cannot
do 30 here on account of inability to
secure skilled labor. For these rea-
sons, 1t is said, the company will
probably 60 elsewhere.
This company manufactures the
Buckeye railroad track jacks and the
Buckeye automatic lowering jack.
The former Is largely used by rail-
roads. as 1t is the best jack on the
market for raising and lowering
tracks in leveling and making repairs.

BLOOD THIRSTY
cossaeks Are Blamed for Recent Riot
ing and Disturbances.

st. Petersburg, Aug. 22.-Details of
the recent rioting and disturbances
which occurred at Stavropol, govern
ment Of Stavropol, in Caucasia, show
that the trouble was due to the blood
thirsty tactics of the Cossacks.
A crowd assembled near the col
lege in the city of Stavropol to- pro-
test against the arrest of a deputy
in the outlawed duma. This assem-
bly, was conducting itself in an orderly
manner, although the policies of the
government we're being sharply crit
Iicised, when the Cossacks charged the
crowd with drawn sabres.
Many women and children we're In
the assembly but the Cossacks showed
no mercy toward them. They we're cut
down with the men,
The crowd was defenseless against
the onslaught of the apparently in
furiated Cossacks, and many were
slaughtered in the most awful man
ner.
The prefect of the police, Mortified
at the excesses of the troops, finally
prevailed on the officers of the Co.'S
sacks to call off. their men and the
massacre was stopped.

WOMAN WEPT
When She Told of Her
Unhappiness-Arrested
For Trying to Console
Herself With Another.

The troubles of mismated couple
are many and often lead to sensa-
tional discoveries. Such is the his
tory of the marriage of Michael Roth
and Rose Snyder. who about one year
ago were married in the city of Cleve-
land. That their union was not hap
py one is clearly shown by the actions
Of the wife.
Last night at about IL o'clock Off
Ger Penley in company with the hus-
band went to No. 1000 East Lake
street and placed under arrest Rose
It is said, unlawfully cohabiting as
man and wife. 1t seems about week
ago Roth's wife left his bed and
board in Cleveland, coming to Canton
with Untch after she had instituted
divorce proceedings in the Cleveland
courts against her husband, alleging
extreme cruelty.
THE WOMAN WEPT.
When interviewed by News repre-
sentative in her cell at police head
quarters, the woman with tears in her
eyes stated she could not live happily
with her husband, claiming that he
beat her and remained away from
home at night spending his money and
left her to- provide for herself. She
says she endured his abuse as long
az she could, and when John Untch
invited her to accompany him to Can
ton stating he would give her a good
home, she innocently said she could
see no harm in accepting his offer,
stating she was perfectly satisfied to
live with Untch and forget her past
troubles and begin life anew. Her
lawful husband, however, did not take
the same view of the actions of his
wife, and as soon as he learned of
her whereabouts he came to Canton
and caused her arrest as we'll as the
arrest of her mutual friend.
The parties will be held at police
headquarters on the charge of disor-
derry conduct until this morning when
the husband stated he would appear
before the mayor and file an affidavit
against his wife and her friend and
prosecute them for their unlawful
acts.
