The mayor heard of the ease and
investigated it thoroughly. The girl
lived with her parents here and
worked at the Silk Mills. She gave
them, or rather they took most of
her earnings. Then the father left
the city and for while the girl
and mother lived together. The
mother left later and joined her
husband in the west leaving the
girl to shift for herself.
She was able TO get along all
right for time, her wages being

became i'll she had no money to
pay for doctors services or medi-
cine nor for common necessities.
The girl prayed not TO he taken To
the pcor house. She told several
persons that if she were taken to
the poor house she would kill her.

Mayor Scherff has investigated
the case and found that the girl
is deserving of assistance. He is
now making preparations TO either
have benefit performance or So
cial of some nature to secure
money for the girl by soliciting
small subscriptions.

To Meet in Columbus on
Thursday.
MATTERS OFIMPORTANCE
Will be Discussed at Coming
Session.
Legal Advise will be Sought Deter
mining if Marion Company Has
Violated the Antitrust Law.


AS announced last week The exc
cutive committee Of the Ohio mde-
pendent Telephone association will
meet in Columbus Thursday to
take up several matters Of import
ance TO the independent telephone
interests of the state. One Of the
principal topics will be that of the
propositions which have been made
to independents in number of
localities by the Bell TO take
over the local exchanges Of the
latter and in return TO pse the
Bell long distance lines.
While little has been said publicly
on this line since last spring yet
the Bell people have not been rest
ing during the summer and n num-
ber of independents are consider
ing the proposition I'm a serious
manner. The offer which has been
made to the Independents is that
the latter take over the Bell en-
changes at inventoried cost price
with discount of from 6 To 8
per cent. fer depreciation and that
the Bell long distance lines be
connected with the independent ex-
cliSiges.
The Bell long distance company
does not ask for an exclusive con-
tract but only that long distance
business be routed by the best and
most direct wires. While the onic-
ers of the independent association
may not be aware Of it yet it is a
fact that several independent ex-
changes are considering this propo-
sition in q favorable light, espe-
cially in localities where the
United States long distance wires
arc few in number or entirely lack,
ing.
The contract at Marion. where
both companies have completed a
deal, will be taken up and legal
advice will be sought whether the
contract is n violation Of the Val,
entine antitrust act. While the
Bell officials refuse to discuss the
question it is understood that they
have sevral contracts practically
ready TO sign with Independent com,
panies. - Ohio State Journal.

IS RENDERED
In Schrashun Bankruptcy
Proceeding.
FRAUD WAS COMMITTED

latives the Money.

cy Law is Made for all Of a Mans
Creditors.

In the United States district court
at Cleveland, Saturday, Judge Taylor
rendered a decision in the bankruptcy
merly proprietor of the Sterling Store
proceeding of A. schrashun, for
in this city.
The court found that Schrashun
committed fraud in turning over
$4,000 to his brother, Edward Schra-
shun, of Canton, before starting the
proceedings. schrashun's
brother was directed to turn this
money over to II Il. Hill, trustee in
the case, so that It may be distrib-
uted among all of the creditors.
THE bankruptcy law is made for
the benefit OF all creditors, and
not a certain few said Judge Tay-

Before the bankruptcy proceeding
was started, Schrashun not only
turned over the $4,000 to his broth
err but gave $4,000 to his sister. Miss
Emma Schrashun, of Canton. Moth
ing has been done as yet in regard 10
the money given to the sister. On
the witness stand at the first hearing
of the case Schrashun admitted that
he owes his brother and sister money
and that he turned these amounts oy-
er to them. The court says that
these two creditors must share pro-
portionately with all the rest.
Following the rendering of the de-
cision, Schrashun gave notice of an
appeal to the United States circuit
court of Cincinnati. He claims that
he owes his brother $4,000 and his
sister $4,000.
C. G. Fisher, attorney for all the
creditors except Schrashun's brother
ana sister and II. r. HHl. the trus-
tee, were present at The hearing

New Steel Steamer Cypress Lost
on Lake Superior.
TWENTY-ONE DEATHS RESULT
Entire Crew, With the Exception OF
the Second Mate, Perishes in
the Disaster.

Sault Ste. Marie, Mich, Oct. 12.--
The steel steamer Cypress, owned by
the Lackawanna Transportation com.
pany and on her second trip down the
lakes with a cargo of ore, was
wrecked in Lake Superior off Deer
Park, about thirty miles from Grand
Marais, and all of the crew of twenty.
two excepting the second mate were
lost. He was washed ashore near
Deer Park, dashed to a hferaft and
barely alive, and it was some hours
before he was able to give any details
Of the disaster.
Further details of the disaster seem
to indicate that the laundering of the
ship was due to a sudden leak,
through which the waters rushed with
such volume as to overcome all efforts
to keep the vessel afoat. The steamer
George Stephenson of the Pittsburg
Steamship company, while locking
through, reported that she had passed
the Cypress several hours before the
accident. A red streak was distin-
guishable in the water behind her, In
dicating that her plates had been
sprung and that the iron with which
the ship was loaded was discoloring
the water.
