WIFE'S
THROAT AND
own WRISTS.
Want to Finish Job Schu-
meister Threat From
Bedside.

Enraged at his wife's renuncia-
ton. Ben Schumeister, aged IS
years, slashed her throat with a
razor and then cut his own wrists
and throat, in his wife's apartments.
521h Twenty-second street, at
about $50 o'clock last evening.
Both may live. DR.. Joseph De-
Silva reported today from St An
thongs hospital.
II want to finish the job," Schu-
meister is said to have asserted
when he regained consciousness
after his wounds had been treated
in the hospital. The Schumeisters
have ben in this city about eight
months. Recently they separated
and Mrs. Schumacher filed suit for
divorce charging habitual drunken
ness.
Since then Mrs. Schumeister has
lived at 521h Twenty-second street
with her own son, Clinton C. Sum-
mers, aged 36 years. Summers
was in the apartment last evening
when Schumacher entered by the
back door and, it is alleged. began
abusing his wife for casting him
of.
Mr.. Summers believes that his
step father WIS intoxicated.
Ordered Hin Oxt
Mrs. Schumeister attempted to
thrust her husband back out of
the door, telling him to 60 away
and that she did not want him in
her home. He resisted, and upon
further attempts on her part to put
him out, he pulled and old straight
edge razor from his pocket and
drew it across her throat.
t With her neck slashed from ear
to ear, the woman staggered away
and fell to the floor.
With no further hesitation, the
man inflicted cuts on each Of his
wrists and gashed his own throat
with the razor, falling on the floor
where blood from his and his
wife's wounds mingled in q large
pool.
The son, who had sprung to the
rescue too late, hurriedly called the
police.
Cut Jugular.
Mr.. Schumeister's condition was
more serious than that of his wife.
The razor did not penetrate to the
large blood vessels in either wrist,
cutting merely the muscular tis-
sues. However, the jugular vein in
his neck was severed, and he was
nearly dead from loss Of blood
| when he arrived at the hospital
TRANSMISSION of blood was used.
Only muscular tissues in Mrs.
Schumeister's neck were severed,
and though she is horribly wound
ed her condition is not as serious
as Schumeister's.

, Overshadowing the spectacular
features Of this failure, one of the
greatest in New York's financial his

eventually will result in young
Ryan and his father forgetting
their personal. difference. Their
estrangement dates from Oct 20,
1917, wien the elder Ryan, a few
days after the death Of his first wife,
Allan's mother, married Mrs Cor
nelius c. Cuyler. Up to that time
the relations between father and
son had been most pleasant The
elder Ryan had set the boy up in
business and afforded him every
opportunity to exercise his financial
bent.
The marriage, however, was fol-
lowed by a bitter personal verbal
attack by the son on the father be-
cause the latter had failed to wait
at least a year before taking another
wife. Since then, so far as is known,
the two have not spoken. However,

HARDING BUSY
DAY AND NIGHT
TO END TIEUPS
Doing Everything
Possible, Lalu-
renee Told.
By DAVID LAWRENCE.

Copyright, 1922, by The Argus.)
Washington, D. c., July 26.-~The
government is doing all in its pow
er and is working day and night to
bring about a settlement of the
strikes-just because we cannot
talk about it is no reason to sup
pose we are doing nothing"
Thus did a spokesman Of the ad-
ministration describe the policy of
the government which at the mo-
ment has not reached the point
where its details can be disclosed.
In. a nutshell, however, this may
be said to be the latest phases of
the strike situation:
President Harding will wait q
reasonable length Of time, perhaps
q week, to determine whether the
country's needs will be satisfied by
the production Of coal under the
emergency arrangements made by
the operators since the invitation to
open the mines was extended by
the White house.
Plan Separate Agreements.
The alternative measures in the
event that the nations fuel supply
Is inadequate cannot be revealed
but they contemplate in a broad
sense definite program of COOP
Grafton with the governors Of states
whereby individual agreements can
be made with the striking miners
The effort is to establish a sort oi
status quo which will not prejudice
the case Of either side while Q CON-
mission soon to be appointed by the
president makes an exhaustive in
quiry into the coal industry and
presents its recommendations.
Rail Beard Must Act.
As for the rail strike, Presi-
dent Harding wants the United
States Railroad Labor Board tc
make the moves that will bring the
disputants together. This involves
all the issues that have arisen since
the strike was called and here, too
the tendency IL to ask both sides
to accept settlement on the basis

Bile, M. E. Pastor
Says.

Chicago, July 26.-The present
industrial unrest is a challenge to
the church." DR.. A. E. Craig, pastor
of Trinity NJ E. church OF Evans
vile, Ind. said at a conference Of
Chicago ministers of the Metho-
dist Episcopal church here today.
Gan we hopa" he continued,
that it will prove adequate to
move up and grasp this situation
with firm hand and be a controll-
ing factor in this work of recon-
struction? The church can not do
all we desire, for unhappily its grip
upon the industrial situation has
hitherto been very slight. 1t is not
too much to say that the church
has largely stood aside and left the
solution Of this vexed problem to
other agencies Perhaps it has been
wise in this. 1t may have been jus
titled. But no longer can such
aloofness be defensible. The very
life Of the church itself is at issue
and such a scheme of detachment
can only result in defeat and hu-
initiation.
Must be Mediator.
The church must be the media
tor in this clash of conflicting in
dustriai claim.
"A stupid, blind indifference on
the one hand or a hysterical agi-
tation on the other alike will prove
unavailing. In nature there is no
remedial agency equal to the light.
Let the searching light of truthful
Investigation be turned upon our
seething industrial unrest and heal
ing will be sure to follow.
Democracy is more than a 20
litical formula 1t is an industrial
issue also, and the church will be
remiss If it fails to grasp the sig
nificance Of this new movement.
"The church must never surren-
der to the dictates of either capital
or labor. But when the public is
thrown into q panic and loud clam
or arises for antiquated and dis
counted methods of suppression
the church must maintain its sane.
tity and be ready to show the futil.
ity Of such a remedy for our in
dustrial unrest"
