Old Man Wrestles With Adversary and Calls for Help, But Spectators Could Not Understand Him. THOUGHT THIEF WAS SUBDUING INSANE MAN

Crdbk Went Calmly About His Business and After Getting Roll Left Station and Then Vanished. The night bell at Dr. Charles Mar vel's office at midnight Saturday rang vigorously. -What is it?w inquired the division physician of the Penney! vanla Railroad company. "Old man. can't talk a word of English, down at the station and badly in need of medical attention," the doctor was inform ed. When Dr. Marvel arrived at the station he was hurried into the men's waiting room and there he saw an aged German, ' wrestling about the room with a young man. The old man was, with his free hand, gesticulating wildly and shouting at the top of his lungs. None of the group who witnessed the wrestling bout could tell what the aged man was saying, as none understood German. Finally the young man subdued bis aged antagonist and explained .to the physician and the railroad men that the old German, whose name it was later learned was William Schultz, was Intoxicated and had become so wild that he felt called upon to subdue him. "I understand a little German and I learn from what the old man has been saying that he has a son living here. If you will watch him I will go and telephone to his son." The stranger then left the room and lias never been seen since. After the young man's disappearance It was learned, through the aid of an Interpreter, that the stranger had been robber of $234 by the stranger, who he had met at Cincinnati but whose name he did not know. Schultz came to Richmond via Dayton. It Is presumed the crook came on the same train with him. Whether he robbed 8chnlts on the train or at the local station, during the wrestling bout. Is not known. The crook got every cent Schults bad on blm but left a ticket for San Francisco. 8chnlts was cared for here until this morning, when be was sent to Chics go, from where he will be sent to San Francisco.

Think Roosevelt's Guild Hall

Address Was an Insult to the Irish People and Liberty Lovers. to PORTLAND CONVENTION IS NOW IN SESSION President Cumimngs of the Ancient Hibernians Frankly States He Is Peeved Over T. R.'s Address. (American Newi Service) Portland, Oreg., July 18. Unless all signs fail, delegates to the National convention of the Ancient Order of Hibernians will take pointed action on the speech made by Theodore Roosevelt in Guild Hall. London, in June. A conflict Is in prospect as the more conservative delegates will op pose any official action at the conven tlon, which opens tomorrow. The more radical delegates declare the speech an insult to the whole Irish race, and un-American as w,ell. Matthew Cummings of Boston, presi dent of the Hibernians, is especially bitter in his denunciation of the ex president. While President Cummings declares that Roosevelt's attitude is simply a personal matter with him and that he .will take no steps to bring the subject before the conven tlon, other delegates probably will do so. The Vatican incident is also the subject of no little comment among leaders of the Hibernians. Train loads of delegates are arriving today and it is understood tomorrow there will be 1.200 delegates here. , Repeats Criticism. President Cummings' first criticism of the Roosevelt incident, was made recently at Lexington, Mass. In an interview given here Mr. Cummings said: "I have not changed my views particle since I made that speech at the Lexington picnic. Ex-President Roosevelt misrepresented in his speech the American people, the lov ers of liberty. This country has been the home of the oppressed of all lands and -has always prided Itself in being the champion and defender of weaken ed nations. It has always believed as President Lincoln, the American mar tyr of liberty believed, that no nation was good enough to govern another. The American people believed in government for the people, of the people and by the people. Roosevelt is for imperialism at the most brutal kind, because he has stated that ignorance and cruelty would be far better than the timid methods used by England for the government of the Egyptian people. His speech was offensive to the Irish people, as they have suffered for eight hundred years from the very cruelty and Injustice he advocated. Ireland bas been governed by fire and sword and the hangman's halter during all these years and In spite of England's tyranny and oppression the desire for freedom is still as great among the Irish people as it was when the English Invader first landed on Irish soil. Roosevelt's speech put into practice would destroy the desire for freedom among all struggling nations." BOY GETS LECTURE Clayton Harris, a thirteen year old boy, was arrested for riding a bicycle on the sidewalk, but released by Mayor Zimmerman in city court. He was warned that if he appeared again a fine would be assessed.

Reached at the Conferences at Pittsburg and Philadelphia Today. PREPARATIONS FOR A STRUGGLE CONTINUE If Peace Efforts Fail, Both the Pennsylvania Company and Striking Employes Will Be c jq j I I WUIIU. I vuuji (American News Service! Philadelphia, July 18. The crucial conference of conductors and trainmen representatives and General Manager Meyers of the Pennsylvania railroad concluded at 1:30 o'clock today. It was stated that the situation had par tially cleared, but another conference late this afternoon or tomorrow would be necessary. All Indications now are that the crisis is past and there is little further danger ot a strike on the Pennsylvania system. Philadelphia, July 18. The hope of a peaceable settlement of the dispute between the Pennsylvania railroad and its employes grew stronger hour ly today, and the statement was made this morning that the opposing sides in the conference today would reach a compromise which would clear away the last difficulties. Similar action was predicted for the Pittsburg con ference today. Nevertheless, the rail road went ahead with its preparations for a great struggle. Company officials gave it out that the preparations for a fight had been so thorough that there would be no hitch in train service should the men walk out, non-union men . having been recruited In several' cities in the last few days. The force of carpenters here and elsewhere that has been working might and main to house strike-break ers and guard property, continued their labors unabated. Make No Concessions, President W. G. Lee of the trainmen's organization declared this morn ing, however, when asked his plans. that the men would make no conces sions, Leading labor leaders today refused to comment on the report that the loivr vuiuuicui vu iuc ic;'uiv iucw iuo iv i comotive engineers bad determined to join in the strike movement This report has been gaining strength since the conference of G. M Wilson, assistant president of the Brotherhood of Engineers, and Lee and President Garretson of the Con ductors, last Friday. Reports that Theodore Roosevelt had intervened to bring about peace between company and men received no confirmation here today and were not credited in view of the denial from Oyster Bay Reports that the employes would yield in their demands brought forth the following explanation of the men's demands from President Lee: Explanation by Lee. The freight conductors now work ing on runs for which a full day's pay is not given to be paid a minimum day's wages of at least $3.63. with overtime after 10 hours, or above 100 miles, or at least 3.6 cents a mile, or 36.3 cents an hour.

(d) Conductors now receiving $4.40 and $4.80 for runs of 12 hours, or 120 miles, and 12 hours, or 130 miles, respectively, to continue to receive these amounts, with overtime after 13 and 12 hours respectively. These figures directly contradict those given out by the company and Kopvziixuy muoe cuuuuuca m vile iSDtei Issued over President McCreary's name in which the demands of the conductors running 12 hours are plac - ed at $4.80 and those running 13 hours at S9..U.

wages be increased, or that they belrowly escaped assassination. Gover

i Members of the State Board ol

Charities Attend Meeting and Oppose the Proposed Jail Site. R0BBINS IN ANSWER TO STATE SEC. BUTLER Defends the Jail Site But Butler Insists that County Infirmary Is the Best Place Gavisk Speaks. At a joint meeting held today ot the -' Wayne county commissioners, the Wayne county council, members of the -state board of charities, the county board of charities and several well ' known citizens, the question of the proper method of caring for the In- ' sane of Wayne county was under consideration and tne debate that took place at times waxed warm, especial ly between Amos W. Butler of the state charity board and John F. Robbins, county attorney. Secretary Butler of the state board maintained . the position that exper ience in Indiana had shown conclusive' ly to those men and women trained in the care of Insane, that they should never be confined in jails or In Institutions that are in any way connected with jails. The secretary declared that Wayne county would be taking a backward step as a recognised propressive cpunty if it should proceed " with the propsed plan to erect a. detention hospital for the Insane on the , jail grounds. Gavisk and Butler. Father Gavisk of Indianapolis, a member of the state board of charities and considered, one of the best Inform" ed men of "the state on the question ot the care of the insane, also, spoke, vigorously on the subject ' and like Secretary Butler held that the proposed detention hospital for Wayne conn-.' ty should be J? entirely ; distinct from the jail and divorced from the care of the sheriff. Attorney Robbins, representing the county commissioners, made a talk that was as vigorous in defense of the Wayne county plan as the words of Secretary Butler and Father - Gavisk were against it. Attorney Robbins declared that the real shame of the whole affair was that the general assembly of Indiana did not adequately provide tor the care ot the Insane. In the meantime Attorney Robbina said Wayne county : believed that by erecting a detention ' hospital on ground adjoining the jail, but to be made a separate and distinct institution, it would be fulfilling a duty that it owed to such unfortunates. The county attorney also maintained that only the dangerous insane should be cared for and that It would be a much better plan that to place the dangerous insane at the county poor farm, far away from the sheriff, who under the law was expected to protect those' who might be in danger of harm from gut!l unfortunates. Trying to Solve Problem. In conclusion Attorney Robbina said that Wayne county did not deserve to have Its motives Impugned; that It was trying to solve the problem the best that it could be solved under the circumstances and that It was an honest endeavor to keep the insane out of the jaiL , Secretary Butler In reply said that it was admitted by all that It was the duty of the state to care for all the insane, but that when the state through any cause had failed to make were trying to oo wnat tney aeemeq best in the situation,' but he felt cer tain that they had misjudged the situation. He, referred to the manner In which the Insane in various other counties of the state are cared for at ' poor farms and he said the plan worked admirably and avoided altogether the possible stigma attached, to being : confined in a Jail or an annex thereto. William Dudley Foulke and Timothy Nicholson spoke in favor 'of the state board's plan and Judge Fox is d a short talk said he had always been: and still was an advocate of maintaining an institution of the sort proposed on the jail ground,. but keeping it aydistinct and separate institution from the jaO. The council voted the additional appropriation of $3100 for the proposed detention hospital, leaving it to the board to decide where it shall go or ; whether it shall be built at alL The council also voted f $3,000 additional for the dining hall and boiler house construction at the poor farm and ; $1,000 for general repairs at the poor farm. - - .
