Pirate Treasure found by boys taken by cops
Four thirteen year old boys in Windsor Ontario believed they found pirate gold but turned over a stash of dull yellow metal. The pieces were identified as pure gold by a jeweler yet the Sandwich police seized the gold under a law that assigns ownership to the government if title is unclear. The incident ends with police custody and questions over rightful ownership.

The Montfair Gas Coal Company cut wages to 22 cents a ton for leaders and $2 a day for outside labor $2.40 a day for inside labor as the union coalition nears affiliation. Union coal production was 102 650 tons weekly forming 43.7 percent of the field while nonunion operators mined 49.4 percent of 116 140 tons. The National Miners Union with 14 locals opposes the cut, but relief rolls leave 400 men to pressure acceptance.
