.STEEN WAS CALLED
A RAIL WAY SLEUTH
L. R. Bush Also Flatly Re-
fused at First to Believe
Nephew Was Insane.

;, That Sheriff Steen was. q private de-
tective for the Pennsylvania railroad
company was the charge made by L.
r. Bush. an uncle of Joseph S. Bush,
the insane man who was taken to his
home at Salem, Ind, the first of this
week by the Wayne county sheriff.
Bush also declared that his nephew
was not insane, and that he should
be declared OF sound mind, and re-
leased.
This man is private detective for
that railroad Company" said Bush's
uncle, speaking of Sheriff Steen.
The company has sent him here to
have my nephew placed in an insane
hospital just in order to get out of
paying damages. The story my neph.
ew tells about being thrown from the
moving Pennsylvania train near
Eaton, O.. is correct l believe, and Jo-
seph should not be taken to an
asylum
The elder Bush made this state
ment after a lunacy commission had
declared Bush of unsound mind and
papers had been made out for his ap-
plication for admission into the
Southern Indiana Hospital for the In
sane at Madison.
1t was with difficulty, it is said,
that the mother of Bush and his
brother finally convinced the uncle
that Joseph Bush was insane. The
old man at first firmly believed his
nephew's story about being followed
from New Orleans by gang" and
that the gang" threw him from the
Pennsylvania train near Eaton.
The relatives who had come to this
city last Sunday to identify Bush fin
ally prevailed upon the elder Bush to
listen to reason" They told him
that Sheriff Steen was actually the
sheriff Of Wayne county and that he
had done everything possible for Bush
during the latter's Incarceration at
the Jail. They also told the uncle of
the three or four different times Steen
had prevented Bush from committing
suicide.
Bush will enter the Southern Insane
hospital within a few days.

COAL STRIKE LOSS
No Settlement in Great Eng
lish Walkout Has Yet
Been Reached.
~ {National News Assoc Ia tion)

LONDON, March 15.-With the
United Kingdom perched on the
brink of perdition" as one publicist
expresses it, the joint conference Of
government representatives., members
Of the executive committee of the
Federated Miners Union and oper-
ators resumed their settlement con-
ferences in the national local strike
at the foreign office at noon today.
The halt in the weeks negotiations
over the method of adjusting prices
in a minimum wage scale upset the
calculations of those vino had pre-
dicted a settlement this week and it
was currently believed as the confer
ence gathered that the parley would
either break up in a deadlock or be
adjourned until next week.
Belief was also expressed, however,
that Premier Asquith would have an
important announcement to make in
the House of Commons after the
meeting. Even sould the tide sudden
ly turn It Is estimated that it would
be nearly . fortnight before coal
would again be pouring into the mar
ket from the collieries.
So great has become the stagna-
tion of the business that the daily
loss from the strike is now estimated
above $15,OOO,O0O
In some of the districts the peo-
pie are becoming desperate and it
has been found expedient to increase
the military guard.
Women and men. stung to despera-
ton by the hunger appeals of their
children are making threats to at
tack provision warehouses. Keir
Hardy. member OF parliament. declar-
ed today that, in his opinion. 1t would
be found necessary to terminate the
struggle by an enactment in parlia-
ment.

The Commoner Tells a Large
Audience Yesterday of the
Reform Wave Which Is
Sweeping the World.
BRYAN OPTIMISTIC
OVER THE OUTLOOK
At Close of Address the Old
Idealistic Flame Flaed
Bright From His Eyes
World Is Better.

William Jennings Bryan changed
his subject yesterday afternoon and
spoke on the progressive movement
in the United States and all over the
world, to a large audience at the Gen
nett theatre.
Il have come to bring you all en-
couragement-you who are trying to
better conditions. l am going to
speak on reform. Everybody In this
room is a reformer-and l am going
to prove this by the process of elimin-
ation.'
Bryan then proceeded throughout
the rest of the afternoon to adduce
evidence that the change for the bet
ter is reform-and that reform is
sweeping the country. He called the
Y. NJ. c. A. one of the most potent
forces in the world in the movement
to settle conditions.
The trip that Bryan took through
out the civilized world few years
ago, which made him an internation-
al figure, was turned into service
! ycSlcIudy WHICH AC SISCu S0oC "AN~A
case, from China and Bolivia to our
own little United States, to prove the
| onrush of intelligence, the growth of
fraternity among mankind and the
progress of mankind in the new ethi-
cal awakening, which Bryan declared
| was sweeping the world and partic-
ularly here in the United States.
Raps the Socialists.
1t was only here and there that Bry-
an went into anything particularly
BryanesQue. For the most part 1t
was a copilation of national and In
ternational tendencies.
Still Bryan took a fall out of the
socialists by indirection when he
said:
There are some people VINO think
that the world must grow worse be-
fore it may grow better. / am not
that it is dangerous to allow the
world to slip back because / am not
sure that it can be put forward again
| If l were morally certain that could
raise the dead to life l would not
kill a man to experiment on-Id use
dead one."
| He came forward with the suggest
ion that the ownership of newspapers
should be made known.
1--WE ought to know who owns a
newspaper SO that We can trace any
selfish suppression of fact" Too often
brilliant editors are hired to blind our
eyes while public service corporations
walk off with our pocket books"
Bryan spoke Of the bipartisan ma
chine and declared that it made NO diff
ference who was the father Of a re-
form-it was case of men and meas
ures.
The direct election of senators had
been successfully proposed by the Re.
publicans, the Prohibitionists, the Pop.
ulists and the Democrats, he said.
! The only place in which Bryan
warmed up to his old form was in the
last sentences in which he pictured
the wd4ld sweeping forward toward
better things.
Then his eye lit up, as it has many
times, and something of the old ideal
istic flame which has made Bryan the
idol of many a man flared high:
! THE world is growing better, there
is a God in heaven-and l have come
to tell you so!"

cONvlcTs MISSING
No Trace Of the Three Nebraska

0VOtSSVOVO0o
;. LINCOLN, Neb. March 15.-No
trace of the three convicts who killed
three men and wounded another and
then escaped from the state prison
yesterday has been found today.
Three men surrounded early in the
morning, thought to have been the
murderers, were not the men wanted.
In the prison itself every precau-
tion has been taken to prevent an
outbreak of the prisoners. The con-
victs are kept locked in their cells,
their meals being passed into them
through the little grated openings in
the doors. The unusual action of the
prison officials is based largely on
the belief that the outbreak yesterday
was the result of a secret organiza-
tion of robbers that is believed to
have succeeded in smuggling arms into
the prisoners cells. For some time
many Of the convicts have displayed
a sullen mood and the prison guards
fear that further trouble may occur.
In the meantime posses are seeking
the escaped convicts, Charles Taylor,
John Dowd and Charles Morley. The
men were clad only in their prison
clothes and whether their confeder-
ates on the outside had hidden cloth
ing on the outside where they might
get it is one of the questions the pris-
on officials are trying to solve. 1t
is generally believed they are in
hiding near Lincoln, and the entire
countryside has engaged in the
search
