boy BURNED TO DEATH
John Pickens Family, Well Known
Here, Bereaved.

OF the death of Wilson PiCkenS
whose parents are well known to Os
kaloosa people, Mrs Pickens being
formerly Miss Minnie button, the
Hastings (Neb.) Tribune of Tuesday
Sept. l, says:
Wilson, the year old son of Mr.
and Mrs. John Pickens of 1921 West
bird street, died at $3.50 o'clock this
morning of toxaemia resulting from
body and leg burns received at about
o'clock yesterday afternoon, when
a can of burning gasoline was spilled
over his legs enveloping him in fam
es.
Wilson and his playmates had filled
large coffee can with gasoline from
the Falk garage and after attempting
to burn some of it on the ground with
out success had just succeeded in IL
hitting the remainder in the can When
the Van Patten auto livery wagon
was sighted by the boys coming
through the alley where they wert
playing.
Fearing that the burning gasoline
might set the automobile on fire the
boys began frantically to kick at the
can in an effort to remove it from
the alley.
One of the boys finally removed
the can but the burning gasoline wak
thrown over the legs of Wilson
whose clothes Immediately caught
afire.
Wilson started to run for home
paying no attention to John Gallo
ways command to lies down on the
ground and roll on the grass. Seeing
that Wilson was too frightened tC
obey his command young Galloway
displaying rare presence of mind
made a run for him, caught him
caught him around the waist and
after tripping him to the grC-nd roll
ed him in the grass until the fame
were extinguished.
Mrs. Mary Dowd, who resides with
her daughter, Mrs. Falk, grabbed 3
blanket and rushed to where Wilson
lay, which was about half block
west of the Falk residence. She pick
ed Wilson up in her arms and car
ried him to the Falk home, where
with the help of Aaron Shannon, she
stripped the lads clothing from the
body and rubbed the burned fest
with grease. Physicians were called
and in short time arrived and treat
ed the wounds.
Early this morning when a phyBi
clan arrived at the Pickens home tc
dress the wounds Wilson appeared
slightly delirious, calling to the doct
or as he entered, 81 won the race
Later he asked for something to eat
He was given matted milk, which he
seemed to relish. and twas thought
until an hour before the end came
that his chances for recovery were
good.

PROPOSED REPEAL OF
TOLLS LAW ATTACKED.
Minority Members of Commit
tee Assail Policy ofPres-
ident Wilson.

Washington. March fS.-Vigorolis
Icaunciation OF the Sims bill. which he
characterized as . notice to the world
that the United States abandoned its
policy of an American controlled Pan
anna canal and virtually surrendered its
power To regulate its commerce be-
cause of the new peace ct. any price
policy Featured a minority report to
rllc House today by Representative
knowland. of California, against repeal
of the tolls exemption clause OF the
Panama canal act.
The interstate committee,
of which Mr.. Knowland Is a member,
has favorably reported tie Sims bill,
proposing a fla. repeal. The Knowland
minority report said in part:
"A situation unparalleled n unprec-
edented in history now confronts this
nation, The passage of the bill would
give a British Interpretation to the
Hay-Pauncefote treaty and thus sur
render for all time rights vitality affect
ing this nation, commercially, strate-
gically n politically.
Thousands of patriotic American
citizens insist that we can not MAIN
tain our national honor In the present
controversy IL we abjectlyl surrender
every American right at Panama. The
history of this country would have
been less glorious had we failed to urge
u contentious even when fully con-
WINGED of our right. When the vene-
zuela question stirred the nation. it
was &. mistake to this new peace ut
any price policy for President Grover
Cleveland to have declared in a mes
sage hat commanded the respect OF
the world:
To-day the United States Is prac-
tically sovereign on this continent and
Its fiat liz law on the subjects to which
1t confines its interposition.'"
The report warned the Interstate
committee and members OF
the House that by the provisions OF the
Sims bill it would forever foreclose the
right Of the United States to pass
through the canal without payment OF
tolls, either battleships. revenue cut
ters, golfers, transports or other gov
eminent owned craft.

GRIEF AMONG CLERKS
IN BANKRUPT STORES
Savings, Sick Benefit Fund and
Jobs Are All Lost in the
Siegel Crash.

New York, March 16.--A little cheer
came to the employees OF the bankrupt
Siegel stores here. today. with the an
nouncement that John Claflin would
place as many as possible of the 1000
in h various department stores.
throughout the city. in which he is in
terested. This announcement means
that at least three large department
stores will furnish positions to Siegel
employees. 1t is expected that other
merchants will likewise come to the
rescue.
Pathetic scenes We're frequent, today.
in the Fourteenth street store and the
Simpson-Crawford store. which close
for good, tonight, by order of the court.
The employees. generally. reported as
usual. but it was plain that their hearts
were not In the work, as they waited
on the bargain hunters, who came in
goodly numbers. A lull in the work
would find a gathering of little groups,
discussing the trouble that had over
taken them, and a girl or woman in
tears was not an infrequent sight.
Hundreds of the store clerks, it ap-
pears, besides losing jobs, will lose their
savings. They We're depositors, in a
small "a in the defunct Siegel bank,
their accounts averaging from $25 to
$500. Moreover, the sick benefit fund,
of the two stores. is swallowed up in
the crash. Employees contributed 2per
CEN of their salaries to this fund.
Besides the criminal proceedings,
against Henry Siegel and Frank Vogel,
the affairs of the concerns. which they
headed, are likely to be tied up with
endless litigation.

CHICAGO YEGGMEM
LOOT STORE SAFE

Chicago. March 16.-Five armed rob
bers broke into the mail order branch
of the Hartman Furniture at
1918 Wentworth avenue, today, blew
open the office safe, tossed out it's con-
tents, threw aside valuable securities,
discarded $4,000 in money orders and
escaped with $4,000, the weekly payroll
of the company.
The quintet worked with machine
like precision. A basement window
furnished them ingress. One remained
outside n the other four attacked,
bound n gagged at Waterman. A
second employe of the furniture COM
pany was surprised on the second
fioor and was bound, gagged and led 10
the basement.
Passing through the buildings. the
thieves waylaid a third Waterman and
carried him also to the basement. They
then attacked the safe in the office on
the second floor. The door was blown
off with nitroglycerin.
Failure of the watchmen to make
their hourly report IN the burglar
alarm service led a telegraph company
to send one of its special watchmen to
the building.
The outside guard covered him with
a revolver and escorted him within the
building, where he was bound, gagged
and left with the three other watch
men.
The burglars worked leisurely and
apparently left The valuable papers and
money orders by design, taking only
currency which would less likely lead
OF detection.
The bonds of one of the watchmen
were loosely tied and, after several
hours. he worked himself free and re-
leased his companions, after which the
police were notified of the theft.

UNCLAIMED ISLANDS
BECOMING VALUABLE

Christiana, March 1.-THE arctic ISL
ands of Spitzbergen, unclaimed and al
most uninhabited, the resort Of whalers
and Walrus hunters and the only place
within the arctic circle visited by tour
lists, are this summe to engage the at
tention of the powers including the
United States, in an effort officially to
declare them neutral IL provide for
their policing during the summer
months, when lawlessness on the part
of the crews of visiting whalers and
seal hunters has been increasing.
No power ever has made a serious
claim to Spitzbergen, the mountainous
islands north of Norway and northeast
of Greenland having been regarded as
almost valueless. But the discovery of
coal, which is being worked principally
by American capital, has completely
changed the outlook, and incidentally
brought the United States into the
group of powers whose voices are to
be heard concerning the future of the
islands.
TWO international conferences will be
held before July. Early in June repre-
sentatives of Russia, Sweden and Nor
way will meet at Christiana to draw up
proposals to be submitted to the gen
eral conference to be held two weeks
later.
