May Attack the ordinance.

The case of Howard Kitchen against the
indianapolis Gas Company to recover money
alleged to have been overpaid was tried be-
fore Justice Walpole yesterday afternoon
and taken under advisement. During the
progress of the trial it developed that the
company will attack the constitutionality of
the gas ordinance in the higher courts In
of appeals Kitchen had a heating
stove, which he also used for cooking pur-
poses. Upon receiving knowledge of this
fact the company added Is cents a month
to the charges for the stove. Kitchen paid
the additional charge voluntarily until a
few days ago, when he brought suit TO re-
cover the amount thus paid. His attorney
argued that ii was the character of the
stove and not the purpose for which il was
used that regulated the charge. Mr.. Winter
took issue with him upon this point He
also said that the city had no more right
10 regulate the price 10 be charged for gas
than IL had to regulate the price to be
asked for dry goods.

NO WAITING ROOM THERE.
Reason the Big Four Did Not Keep
1t Omen.

The Supreme Court, yesterday, in an opin-
ion by Judge McCabe affirmed the decision
of the Decatur Circuit Court in the case OF
the State against the Big Four railroad
company for failing to keep its waiting
room at Adams. a town in that county
open for one hour prior TO the schedule
time for the arrival of the noon train. The
complaint was made by Isaac ID. Warts,
and is based on the statute containing such
a provision and which provides penalty
of from 500 to $500 fine The lower court
sustained the railroad companys motion 10
quaSh the affidavit on the ground that there
is waiting room at the station in quas-
ton. The opinion does not involve the con-
stitutionalty of the law. and the Supreme
Court declined to pass upon that question.

M'CREA DISCOURAGED
The Pennsylvania Vice President
Talks in a PesSimiStic Strain.
He Thinks Railroads Will Not Recover
from the Present Depression for
Some Time-The Union Railway.

The Pennsylvania officials who were in
the city yesterday returned to Pittsburg
last night. James AIcCrea, vice president
Of the Pennsylvania Company, said there
was bet little that is encouraging in the
business situation. There was little more
grain moving on a low rate stimulant and
the Pennsylvania lines were handling a lit
tie more coal and coke, as stocks had been
allowed to get so low that they must be
replenished. but there was oy no means an
ordinary or healthy volume of traffic NOV
Ing. He thinks il will be some time before
tie railroads recover from the present de-
preston When questioned as to whether
he thought further reductions would be
necessary he said he feared they would. In
answer to the remark that he took a dis
NAL view of the situation Mr.. McCrea said
II any would make a trip from the
Ohio river TO JOhnstOwn, Pa, and see the
Idle manufactures, the idle coal mines and
coke ovens and not have the blues he was
made Of different business ideas than he
had.
He stated that for two weeks he had been
attending meetings, and az most of them
how to practice further economies without
detriment 10 the railway service was the
problem under consideration. He came here
TO talk over matters with the Union rail-
way and Belt road officials and to attend

It is thought that the meeting Of the gen.

cago to-day will be an interesting one. AS
ISOLATION officials have for some time past
been quietly investigating certain matters,
and their reports will be laid before the
meeting. Positive proof of rate cutting

This month. the fifth in our calendar.
was the third with the Romans The
origin Of the name is somewhat doubt
full. but the best etymology seems to
show that il is derived from the goddess
Maia. the mother Of Mercury. that swift
messenger of Jove. Though the Ro-
mans held many festivals in this month,
in one respect they deemed it to be un-
luck-to contract marriages in May. In
our mother-land of England, from time
almost immemorial, the first day of May
has been time for floral festivities and
innocent out-of-door jollity. During
Cromwelian times the severe sectaries
abolished the May pole dances and re-
joicing, doing all they could to turn the
world into what they declared it to be-
q vale Of tears. Happily that day Of
prejudice and bigptry has passed, and
we welcome the month Of flowers, % We
should, charming gift from the creator.
Travel In the Northwest 10 never pleas
anter than in this month. and no part Of
this section is more attractive than the
beautiful valley Of the upper Mississippi.
