r.-tiised to (rive him money, and a cool

His services were gratefully accepted,
and he apparently worked with unre
mitting energy to fret some trace of the
stolen child. On Thursday suspicion
hecan to be directed toward him, but
he dented all connection with the kid
niipltiir. anil Conway Bcouted the Idea.
This suspicion, hod its inception in the
fact that H. O. Ulake, a furniture deal
er ami a boon companion of Hardy,
was found to be missing. The police
having once taken up thia line followed
It, and with success, j
An active search for Wake wag be
gun. He was found on Thursday by
some representatives of an Albany
newspaper and was Induced to go to
the olllce of the riper with Hardy. He
was then IndiiVctly accused of knowing
where the child was, but he assumed an
attitude of injured Innocence. He was
threatened, but replied with absolute
denials of the charges. Persuasion was
then tried. The paper offered him J2,ono
If he would produce the child. To this
offer he coolly replied, "Make It 2,500,
and I'll see what 1 can do about It."
A bargain wag struck. Blake declared
that he did not know wh re the missing
boy was, but that he knew a man who
did know wliete the child could be
found. He promised faithfully that if
he received J2 5O0 he would arrange that
John Conway should be delivered to his
parents within two hours after day
light. The man's cupidity got the better
of his Judgment. He Beemed to think
that he could know all about the boy's
whereabouts without being charMed
with complicity in the kidnaping.
Conway Hoy KccaTered.
A rescuing party left Albany In a
carriage with Bluke, taking a circuitous
route, and finally drew up at the west
ern boundary of the city and proceeded
along the Schenectady turnpike to Kar
nera, a small station on the Central,
eight miles west of Albany. They pro
ceeded under the direction of Blake. On
the edMe of a woods Just outside of
Karners ninkeelgnaled the party to stop.
' Here the rescuers were shown the
child, who wus with a mashed man
some distance away in the woods. Aft
er some parleying wlih Blake over the
payment of the ransom, the officers suc
ceeded in rescuing the child without
payment of the promised reward. In
the commotion Liluke t-acaped. On the
following day. however, he was cap
tured, and with Hardy is now In cus
tody. The police had great dliTiculty
in re-'traimhs the excited people from
lynching Blake and Hardy.
A third party implicated In the kid
naping of the Conway boy Is Albert
S. Warner, a New York lawyer, who la
still at laree and for whom the police In
several cities are scorching. A woman,
whose name has not yet been made
public, Is also thought io huve been
connected with the caae.
Wainer was said to have been In
Newark, N. J., the day after the little
Conway boy was kidnaped. The Al
bany police believe he la now In Ulster
county.
It Is now believed that the abduction
of the Conway lad was but a detail of
one of the most daring plots that was
ever invent, d by man. It was planned
to kidnap children In this vicinity by
the wholesale and demand a ransom for
their return. The work was to be done
by a notorious gung of ciooks, whose
baB of operations Is New York city.
The children were to be taken the same
as was the Conwuy boy and If ransom
was refused were to be quietly disposed
of. liardy, the uncle of the boy, was
not one of the originators, but was
merely an Informer for Blake aud War

Mr. Ratehford, prerildetit of the United

B one. lie did not come wi!llnly and did
not treat with the operators on tot ma
that Indicate any dr;iie to protect the in
terests and welfare nf tin; mlnero uf th
l'lttsburg d'strb-t. He openlv claimed
that the operators of the district had
m-re thun their share of the trnde; that
some of it was h-dm taken (rein them,
and that more would be. He claimed "he
operator have a lair- r share of the lako
tonriaifp than they are entitled to and that
they would not be permitted to retain it.
In vw of the fact that Mr. Ratehford
lives in Columbn. which Is th; hrne of
the leudliiK operators of thn IIockinK vhI
1 y and the l.ireeat competltoif for Julio
trade the Pltt.Mhurfr operators have to

PicFidcnt M. I. Ratehford was been
after the conference and said he had
nothing more to add for publication at
this time. He and Secretary Pearce
have returned to Columbus.
President Patrick Polan said he wan
very sorry that no conclusion had been
reached. "Many of the operators seem
to think that it would he humiliation
for them to make concessions," he as
serted. "The time to talk about humili
ation is pat. 1 am of the opinion
that If the operators had acceded to our
rcciu ts, w hich were certainly fair, they
would not have stumped theiiidelvts ha
cowards, hut ns fen tie men who are de
sirous of doin wliit is fair and just.
J"hey have absolutely refused to meet
our demands, aud there Is no other
course for us to puieue. We must con
tinue the strike with unabated vigor."
The camp of the striking miners,
which has been maintained for the past
four wtcks at Sandy Creek In order to
keep the miners from returning to work
in that pit, has been broken up and the
70 men sent to their homes. This ac
tion was taken hy the miners' otllciuls
bectiie the mine there Is tightly clos
ed, and the strikers are fully in sym
pathy with the movement for higher
Writes.
The cainneis at Turtle Creek are
very much elated over a rumor ailoat
amont? th strikers that T. H. D Ar
mltt, superintendent of the Oakhill
mines, want to some of the Italian
strikers and effered to pay them half
of the money they forfaited and 61
cents a ton for ditrfjlrg coal if they
would return to work. T'.iR the strik
ers say, ia an evidence of wakr.es on
the part of the ofllcials of the company,
who they claim are apparently anxious
to have the strike scttlr-d now at any
pnc so that hy can get their mine
to working. Superintendent De Armitt
could not he found to aflinn or deny
the report.
