ANOTHER
DISASTER
Is Narrowly Averted
When SchooIhouSe is
DESTROYED

TOLEDO, Ohio, March lO.-A new
school house in this city recently
erected at cost of $4,000 was
totally destroyed by fire this morning
No loss of life resulted from the
confiagration.
That there was not a repetition OF
the terrible holocaust at Cleveland was
do to the fact that the children were
not called into thei rclasses as yet
but We're playing about the yard OF
the school.
In another fifteen minutes the 500
children would have been inside the
building and the loss of life would
undoub-e edly been terrible as just ff-
teen minutes after the fire was dis
covered the building lay a shoulder
ing mass of ruins.
The cause of the fire is not known
at the present time although rumors
of incendiarism are afloat here. The
building was one OF the finest Of its
kind IN the city and has 5een occu
pied but few months.

Standard is.
Again Running

The days of gloom have past and
once again the cheering rumble OF
the mill makes sweet music to our
ears The terms of agreement has
been accepted and duly signed by the
officers of the unions and Mr. Feust.
manager of the Standard company.
BY the terms the men are to resume
work with the same scale of hours
and wages that were in force prior to
the shut down and to abide by these
terms for at least a period of one
year.
The settlement was brough about
through the effort of the new manager
OF the Standard mine at Bodie who
has won the confidence of the people
of that mining camp.
The same men have returned to
work and the Standard mine and
mill are once more the scene of great
activity and peace reigns.

SChmitZ to
be Released

SAN FRANCISCO. March 10.-As a
result of the Supreme Court decision
of yesterday declaring that Schmitz
was not guilty of graft in the French
restaurant cases his attorneys today
demanded that he be released from
custody. Judge Dunno was busy in
another court and the man sitting in
his court refused to realese the
prisoner. An appeal was then taken
to the Supreme Court for d mandate
for the release of Schmitz and he will
probably gain his freedom within
the next twenty-four hours although
a heavy bail will be demanded by the,
court. Ruef will also be released
within the next couple of days. This
is the worst setback that the prosecu-
tion has received and the effect is
already felt here.

VAN DUZ-ER
IS CHARGED
With Fraud by Postal

A fraud order is reported TO have

against eN-Congressman Van Duezer.
It is stated by some local victims of
the mining stock bunco man that
some time inside of the past month
the department issued the order.
Since his retirement from Congress
he has been especially active in the
sale of worthless mining stock. A
few, months ago he was reported to
have gone ito the newspaper business
by issuing a mining publication at
Chicago Later he was heard from in
Pennsylvania His whereabounts have
been much of afprob1em for over two
years and for his last term as Con-
gressman in fact when he did not dare
show up at Washington for fear OF
arrest for the sale of fraudulent min
ing stock and for obtaining money
in various ways by felse pretenses.
| During his first term at Washing

speech in the House against wildcat

information received by the Sun, that
he had a purpose in making that
speech. 1t had the effect of leadins
