FAILS TO FIX The BLAME
Coroner Simply Condemns Conditions
at ColIinWood.

Coroner Simply Condemns Conditions
at Collnwood.
Cleveland, March II. - Coroner
Burke has rendered his decision in
the Collinwood school fire. Conditions
existing are blamed, but no fault is
charged to- any one.
Fred Hirter, the janitor, is exon
Grated by the coroner. He says he
found that he was at his post when
the fire broke out and that he duly
gave the alarm upon discovering the
fire and that he opened the front and
rear doors of the building:
The coroner found that the fire
started in closet under the front
stairway and was caused by overhead
ed pipes which ignited the stairway.
The death of the children, he says,
was due to faulty construction, where
by'a partition projected in front of the
stairway at the bottom, making the
children turn out of the way in their
rush for the door.
He holds that the children became
panic stricken and were damned in
the doorway because of the turn in
the hall to get to the door.

New Safety Deposit Boxes.

The Lumbermens National bank
OF this city has installed a new set
safety boxes for the convenience of
the patrons of that institution; and
the boxes are being rapidly taken.
There are sixty of the boxes in all
and they are Of the very latest make
and pattern.
The boxes are provided with two
locks, the key to one lock being
held by the bank and the key to the
other lock being in the possession of
the owner of the box. In this man
ner absolute privacy is assured to
any one who desires safety
depository for documents of all
kinds. The boxes are of various
sizes and fitted to accommodate any
class of papers.
The installing of these safety
deposit boxes adds very materially
to the Lumbermens National Bank

months, free man until he again
comes to the bar Of justice to face
the thirty-nine indictments which are
still pending against him and upon
which he had to furnish $345,000 bail
before being released from custody.
Pursuant to the order of the higher
tribunal Judge Dunno of the superior
court, before whom Schmitz was tried
and convicted, dismissed the indict-
ment in the extortion cases and or
dered Schmitz discharged, but at the
same time he directed that the extor-
ton case be submitted to the new
grand jury for the purpose of having
new indictment found.
District Attorney Langdon would
not say what steps would be taken to
bring the extortion matter to the at
tention of the present grand jury, but
it Is probable, in view Of the courts
suggestion, that it will be laid before
the inquisitorial body without loss of
time.

Law as to Fish House,

AS the Pioneer has been frequently
asked as to when the season closes
far the use of fish houses on the
various inland lakes of the state,
we will state that fish houses may
be used from the 18th of December
of any year until the 1st of April
following, license having first been OBJ
tanned therefor from the State Game
and Fish Commission.
The law relative to the matter is
as follows:
Sec. 46. Fish Houses No per-
son shall erect, have or maintain
upon the ice in any of the waters
of this state any fish house, struct-
ure, enclosure or shelter whatever
to protect the person of the occu-
pant while engaged in fishing
through the ice.
Except, that on all inland lakes
of this state, a fish house may be
used for the purpose of taking
pickerel, suckers and redhorse from
the fifteenth of December to the
first of April following, provided,
further, that any person desiring to
use such houses shall first make
application for a permit for such
use to, and obtain such permit

notices posted in the vicinity of

AS Burton is member of the
club offering the reward it looks as
though he will have to stand his
share of the expense of the payment
of the reward if he desires to remain
a member of the club. Whatever
course he may decide to pursue in
this respect of course is a matter of
no small consequence to the state
game and fish commission, as it's
duty and interest in the case ended
when the law was indicated by the
payment of the fine.

MUST PAY REWARD FOR
HIS own CONVICTION
Little Falls Hunter Is Fined 500 for
Shooting Game Out of the
Season.

PIT. Paul Pioneer Press: Convicted
by his plea of guilty of shooting
game out of season, Barney Burton
of Little Falls has placed himself
in the peculiar position of having
to contribute to the payment of
a reward for his own conviction.
The obligation to contribute to a
fund for that purpose arises out
of the fact of his membership in a
gun club which offered the reward
for the conviction of a violator of
the game laws.
Burton, who is prominent mer-
chant at Little Falls, was indicted
last fall on a charge of shooting
prairie chickens before the season
opened. The case was continued
at the fall term of court and was to
have come up this spring, but Burton
decided to dispose of the matter
and entered a plea of guilty. He
was fined 500, but his troubles
did not end there. He is a member
of the Little Falls Gun club, which
posted notices throughout that
section of the country offering a
reward of $40 for the arrest and
conviction of anyone found violat-
ing the game laws.
Constable w. T. Tourtilott has
put in a claim to the state game and
fish commission for the $40 reward
offered by the state in such cases,
and in addition volunteered the in
formation that he intended to put
in claim for the reward offered
by the gun club through the many

CHINA HOLDING HER OWN.
Continues Negotiations With Japan on
Tatsu Maru Incident.

continues negotiations With Japan on
Tatsu Maru Incident.
Picking, March 12.-The negotia-
lions between China and Japan re-
garding the Tatsu Maru, the Japanese
steamer that was seized by China Feb.
z on the ground that she was convey
ing arms and ammunition to Chinese
revolutionists, are proceeding on the
basis of China's offer to compromise
on condition that Japan put stop to
the importation of arms and ammuni-
ton from Japan into Chinese terri
tory.
China seems to be holding her own
In the proceedings, for her claim to
the right to consider the Portuguese
side of the question separately from
the controversy with Japan has been
accepted by Japan, at least provision
ally, and she has been able to sustain
her claim of justification in making
the seizure on the ground that the
Tatsu Maru discharged her cargo in
Chinese waters. China also has sus-
tanned her contention that the cargo
of the Japanese vessel was liable to
confiscation. She admits, in sub
stance, that she was wrong in hauling
down the Japanese flag on the Tatsu
Maru and for this error has apollo
gized, but she has not receded from
her argument that she had the right
to confiscate the ship and its cargo,
nor from the principle of equable adj
justment Of the difficulty, upon which
she has all along insisted.
1t is understoo in Hongkong that
the consignees of the cargo of the
Tatsu Maru have repudiated their
obligations on the ground that the
vessel depressed from the course she
was charted to follow.

Brownsville riot, just made to the

FIRST STEPS TAKEN
Legal Action for Separation Be-
gun by Evelyn Thaw.
HUSBAND WILL FIGHT SUIT

Intends to Contest Allegation That He
Was Insane at the Time Of His Mar
riage-Thaw Family Said to Be in
Favor of AnnuIment.
New York, March 12.-The first
legal step has been taken by counsel
for Evelyn Nesbit Thaw in her con-
templated action to secure the annul-
ment of her marriage to Harry K.
Thaw.
Daniel o'Reilly, the young wife's
counsel, sent a clerk to the Mattea-
wan asylum to serve the papers in
the case upon Thaw and also sent pa
pers to be served on Thaw's mother
He said:
Legally speaking, Harry Thaw is
dead, so it is necessary to have for a
defendant his next of kin. The mother
will not try to make any trouble for
us. She is very kindly disposed to-
ward our case and is sympathetic
with the attitude young Mrs. Thaw
has taken. We do not believe that we
will experience any difficulty in pro-
curing decision in our favor.
Nothing has been done in regard
to a settlement The reported figures
"a lump sum of $4,000 and an an
nual allowance Of $15,000-are all
guesswork."
Thaw Will Einh+ Caee
According to A. Russell Peabody,
Thaw's counsel, Thaw will oppose the
annulment with every means at his
command and will contest the allega-
ton that he was insane at the time
of his marriage. It is stated that Mrs.
Thaw is prepared to testify in her
own behalf in this action, but that if
her testimony should be useful in Sc
curing Thaw's release from the in
sane asylum she is prepared to give
evidence in his favor.
It is reported that members of
Thaw's family strongly favor the move
to annul the marriage and that If it
be successful Evelyn Thaw will be
provided for financially.
Although counsel for both Thaw and
his wife announce that the action is
about to begin neither would disclose
the cause of the difference between
the two, but it was stated that the
trouble began a year ago during
Thaw's first trial and that reconcilia
ton was an impossibility.
A copy of the summons and COM
plant issued on behalf of Evelyn
Thaw has been made public. It al.
leges that at the time of the marriage
Harry K. Thaw was lunatic and of
unsound mind and was incapable Of
making valid contract and incapable
of contracting marriage"
