Barker Must Insure Safety of Children. Wellsville, 0. March 10.—The large public school at Empire, eight miles from here, has been closed by direc- tion of Mayor Griffith until the board of education has made alterations for the safsty of the school children.

Harry Mills, roadmaster for the’ HOTBED GF ANARCHISTS. King Alfonso Insists on Visiting Bar- celona. Madrid, March 10.—It develops here that a section of the Spanish ministry is bitterly opposed to King Alfonso’s going Lo Barcelona, which is described as a “‘wasps’ uest,” but the king, with a display of the cld Bourbon courage, has refused to be dissuaded. He con- siders it his duty to go and is confi- dent that his visit to Barcelona will appeal to the chivalrous spirit of the Spanish peopie and have a good effect. A dispatch has been received here from the Spanish minister to Switzer- land saying that the anarchists of Geneva have decreed the death of King Alfonso and Premier Maura. Barcelona, March 10.—General Li- nares, the captain general of Catalo- nia, is confident that the coming visit of King Alfonso to Barcelona will pass off safely. General Linares de- clares the population of this city is anxious to show its loyalty to the king, whose courage in coming after the repeated bomb outrages here is greatly admired. Nevertheless, the captain general is sparing no precau- tions to safeguard his majesty. The official programme of the visit has not been allowed to be printed and the houses along the streets through which the king is to pass have been thoroughly searched. TOLEDO ICEMEN RELEASED Sentences Suspended After Be- ing in Jail a Month. Toledo, 0., March 10.—Judge Brough, in common pleas court, has issued an order releasing from jail R. C. Lem- mon, R. A. Beard and Joseph Miller, the ice dealers sentenced to six months’ imprisonment for violation of the antitrust laws. The men had served thirty-seven days. The motion for suspension of sen- tence was made last week and there ‘was also presented to the court a peti- tion numerously signed asking that the men be given their freedom. Coun- sel for the prisoners and the prosecut- ing attorney argued the court had au- thority to suspend sentence if it was thought the ends of justice had been served. The state declared it would make no objection to an order of sus- pension. It was argued that the fam- ilies and business of the prisoners need them and that they had been sufficiently punished. The court or- dered their immediate release. The three men plainly show their thirty- seven days’ conflnement and at once left the courtroom for their homes. It has now been nearly a year since the icemen were brought to trial un- der the Valentine law charged with conspiracy in restraint of trade. The case was fought through all the state courts and while the original sentence was to the workhouse the supreme court held they would have to go 1 jail instead. All three men are in poor health and two of them are with- out means. SUSPECT HELD BY POLICE Janesville (Wis.) Murders May Be Nearing Solution. Janesville, Wis,, March 10.—With the arrest of a Norwegian, who gives’ his name as Otto Ende Wallin, the local police may have the solution of the recent attacks on Janesville wo- men. Wallin, whom the police are in- clined to believe insane, was arrested after a call had been sent in to the police station announcing that a bur- glar was trying to enter a residence in the First ward. On his person was found a rare collection of junk, including six wo- men’s pocketbooks, half a dozen knives and several men’s pocketbooks. He wore two suits of clothes, includ- ing a brown canvas coat with fur about the neck, which, with his phy- sical description, practically answers that of the man suspected of attacking several women in this city during last fall and winter. The police are sweat- ing him out. Aged Couple in Suicide Pact. Chicago, March 10.—Theodere En- glebreck, seventy years of age, and his wife Anna, seventy-five years of age, were found dead in their room at the home of their daughter, Mrs. Anna Bostrum.
