BOARD tn TRY
To ESTABLISH
NIGHT SCHOOLS

II the legislature will pass a
law permitting the school board
to use its funds to start night
schools to teach foreign born citi-
zens over 81 years of age night
schools will be established in the
future in Tacoma to make Ameri-
cans out of the foreign population.
The school board Is willing but
the law prevents it now.
A petition was presented to the
board yesterday by the Scandina-
vian Brotherhood requesting ac-
ton looking to the teaching of
1000 or more foreigners in Ia
coma the rudiments of English
and to give a thorough basis for
education in the night schools.
The board discussed the petit
ton favorably but said 1t could
not act until the Law Is changed.

SUSPICION POINTS
TOPITTSBURG MAN
He Is Said To Be Implicated in Al
legged Plot To Poison John 0.
Schenk, Wheeling Millionaire.

WHEELING, w Va. Nov. IA
Sunday was a day of rest in the
Schenk case so far as the authorities
we're concerned The most sensational
feature OF the day was report eman'
ating from Pittsburg TO the effect that
prominent insurance man OF that
city was implicated In the attempt to
take the life OF Wheeling's millionaire
pork packer, John q. Schenk Private
detectives. It is said, have begun
systemic search for the Pittsburger,
and II reports are true he Will probab-
IL be in the tolls within the next day
or so.
II was the mind of this man, it is
said. that conceived the idea of TAX
ing the mans life by Sow poisoning,
and the woman, so rumor says. was
only va tool In his hands.
When Prosecuting Attorney Hand
Ian was seen he said that there had
been no new Developments In the case,
but that he expected 20 continue his
work Of securing evidence. IL Is more
than probable that the time for the
preliminary hearing will be fixed to-
day. The arrests OF the men said 10
be implicated in the case will not be
made until after this hearing.
Friends OF Mrs. Schenk are coming
10 the front protesting their belief in
her innocence, and they say that an
effort will be made either to have her
released on bail or given hearing at
the earliest possible date.
A prominent resident, who has been
a nelghbor OF the Schenk family for
years said that friends OF rs. Schenk
considered that her arrest on the day
following the adjournment OF the grand
fury was in itself evidence that the
prosecution did not have conclusive
proof Of the charges TO submit to the
grand jury
The womans friends claim that her
arrest was made at this time In order
to keep her I'm jail and give the prose-
cutting attorney an opportunity to
harass her I'm the endeavor to secure
a confession or at least damaging
statements that might be used against
her at the trial.
Under these circumstances the in
formant said that an effort would be
h.ade to secure her release or an early
trial II necessary a special grand
Jury could be called and the case dis
posed OF. Her friends declare that to
keep her in jail subjected to harass
Ing interviews at the hands OF the au-
thorities Is a gross injustice.
