FOR BENEFIT OF
C|TY'S UNEMPLOYED
Work on the Streets of the
City Will Begin Earlier
Than Usual.
DEUKER LED THE WAY.
HE RECOMMENDED THAT THE
BOARD OF WORKS TAKE THIS
ACTION AND HIS ADVICE WILL
BE FOLLOWED.

Councilman Deuker, at council
meeting last evening, recommended
that for the benefit of the unemployed
in this city, that the board of public
works begin street improvement work
without further loss of time. He
stated that he knew that il was not
the custom to begin street improve
ment work at this time of year but
that owing TO the fact that there were
a number of unemployed men in Rich
mond it would be wise TO give them
street employment as quickly as pos
sible
Some men have not been at work
for several weeks because they have
been unable to get employment. Tho
majority of them would welcome the
opportunity TO work for the city even
though they were given employment
only for a couple of weeks. This plan
has been adopted in other cities and
has been the means OF relieving con-
siderable suffering" stated Mr.. Deu-
ker. In making this statement he
voiced the sentiment OF all the coun-
cilmen. The board of public works
will heed the recommendation made
by Mr. Deuker.

Asserted That One Hundred
And Thirteen Men Control
All the Business of the
Country Today.
RECENT PANIC WAS
MANUFACTURED BY MEN.
There Were Many Selfish Ends
To Be Met by These Kings
Of Finance. Through Med

Washington, d. c., March 17.-Sen-
ator La Toilette. taking the Aldrich
bill as a text, launched a broadsids
against the trusts and consultations
in the business industrial and ffnan-
cial world of today. He read "A list Of

of the country. He asserted that the
National City bank, Standard Oil and
the National Bank of Commerce and
j. p. Morgan dominated the capital OF
country at will.
He also declared that the recent
panic was manufactured. There were
no commercial reasons for the panic
he claimed. There were speculative.
legislative and political reasons, why
panic might serve these special i'll
terests. There were special business
scores to settle, legislation to be block
ed and currency measure suited to the
system, to secure. Morgan and Rookie
feller had the whole country terroriz-
ed he said. At the right moment they
ended the panic and they had the
most of the money of the country in

Thought by. Working Men on
Streets, 1t Will Do Much
Toward Keeping City's Law
Breakers in the Clear.
PRISONERS CANNOT BE
CONFINED ELSEWHERE.
Must Serve in County Jail and
1t Is Thought That They
Should Be Worked Hard for
Their Board.

The Richmond city council favors
the plan of boarding and caring for
prisoners convicted and sentenced
for violations of city ordinances at
the city Jail, and Of making them
earn their board and keep by work
ing on the streets attached to ball and
chain.
This sentiment cropped out when
the committee on claims recommend
ed the allowance of the claim of
s47.2O for the boarding of municipal
prisoners at the county Jail. This
claim was filed by Sheriff Meredith
two weeks ago. Council acted favor
ably on the committees report.
Councilman Bartel asked City At
torney Study for his opinion on the
question as to whether the city could
not make arrangements to board
municipal prisoners in some neigh
boring city which has a workhouse
Mr.. Study stated that the law pro-
vided that in the event a city had no
workhouse all men convicted of yio-
lating a city ordinance must be con-
fined at the county Jail and that the
sheriff should be paid the same rate
of board as the county did.
Councilman Bartel then stated he
thought it was, time that some dras-
tic step should be take nto protect
the city. Councilman Deuker then
recommended the ball and chain
cure. and the other councilmen ap-
peared to be pleased with the sug-
gestion No action in the matter, how
ever, was taken.
City Attorney Study stated that the
city court did not use discretion in
filming men convicted of violating
city ordinances. He said that recently
a man was fined SO and costs on
charge OF lettering. That meant, he
said, that the city had 10 pay that
mans board for twenty days. Ser
geant McManus stated thar he
thought the enforcement of the lolter-
ing ordinance was having rhe effect
of driving saloon buns either TO work
or out of the city

Lee Robinson, in an Insane
Frenzy, BattIed Four Strong
Men for His Liberty at the
Court House Today.
FORCE WAS USED TO
HOLD CRAZEO MAN.
He FrOthed at the Mouth and
His Eyes Protruded From
His Head in the Wild Battle
FlerCeIy Fought.

Making wild dash for liberty, Lee
Robinson. colored, sprang from the
witness chair in the Wayne circuit
court room this morning and rushed
to the door. In true football fashion
Sheriff Meredith, Deputy Sheriff
Mashmeyer, Prosecutor Jessup and A.
M. Feemster, Cambridge City attor-
ney, pounced upon Robinson. The
man fought with wonderful strength
and pushed his attackers about with
the fiercenesS of a, lion. Sheriff Mer-
edith struck him twice in the face with
Clenched fist, but this did not seem to
deter him. Pushing and pulling and
begging for his liberty, Robinson man
aged to force his way to the door of the
court room and on through. He beg
ged for the chance to throw himself
from the third floor into the marble
flOOred court below. saying demoniac-
ally, Let me go; Id rather be dead.
o, let me gO-l cant pay that money"
The sheriff and deputy succeeded i'll
overpowering the man finally, without
resOrting to their maces. and led him
~ liiV Lop VI IIit SldIl way -hCtSu-
meyer attempted to lead him down,
but he became rebellious again and re-
newed his fighting. He fought as
furiously as a mad man and when he
reached the bottom of the stairway, un-
able to resist the pulling and tugging z
of Mashmeyer, he broke out into fran
tic crying He frothed at the mouth
and his eyes prOtruded from his head
as those of the insane. After a few
minutes he was subdued completely
and as soon as he regained his com
posure he was taken to the county Jail
and locked up for safe keeping. Those
who witnessed the mans fight for lib
erty and heard his half -crazed appeal
TO be permitted to take his own life in
cruel manner, expressed the opinion
he probably was insane temporarily
or under the influence of liquor.
The fierceness of the struggle on
the third floor and stairway kept Rob
inson's hands engaged, and this is be
lieved to have prevented him using a
razor which was found in his poch ct
upon search.
Sheriff Meredith has sprained hand
as the result of the fight. When ask
ed why he did not use a shot filled
slung, which he carries the sheriff
said he did not want to hit any man
until he proves himself the better of
the two. To this attitude Robinson
owes his escape from severe bodily in
juries.

Charge of Grand Larceny Is
Changed to Petit and En-
bezzIement Charged.
TOOK EMPLOYERS MONEY.
THOUGH BY AUTHORITIES, LEASE
INTENDED TO MAKE AWAY
WITH FUNDS PLACED IN HIS
KEEPING BY WILLS.

Schuyler NJ. Lease. formerly of Cam
bridge City, found himself as a bubble
on the seas of the law. after he arriv-
ed in the Wayne circuit court room
this morning. When first he came.
he expected to be tried on the charge of
grand larceny. He was agreeably sur
prised a few minutes later to learn the
charge had been made petit larceny.
and the first affidavit dismissed. But
petit larceny was not all to which he
was to answer. Prosecutor Jessup
drew from another pocket an affidavit
charging him with embezzlement
Lease will be prosecuted on both charg-
es.
Lease was arrested at St. Louis and
charged with the theft of some $40.
which belonged 10 John B. Wills. his
former employer at Cambridge City.
1t developed afterwards that Wills had
placed $3.50 of the sum into Leases
hands for safe keeping. Wills repre-
sented this amount was due him and
his sister from the estate of their faith
er. The state was informed that ST.

of the Peoples Drug store at Cam
bridge. which was operated by Wills.
when Lease left for the far west with
out announcing his Intentions The
affidavit charging grand larceny was
prepared on this information. Wills
stated this morning the sum taken
was but SD and as a consequence the
charge had to be made petit larceny.
as the sum taken was less than $50.
1t is believed by the authorities.
Lease intended fully to abscond with
the $3.50 as We'll as the smaller
amount, and for this reason The charge
of embezzlement was placed against
him. as il is alleged he had purposely
and feloniously appropriated the mon
ey for his own use. when he fled from
Cambridge.
