They Consider Legal Proceedings T."
Regulate Well Boring.
An adjourned meeting OF citizens own
ing property in the vicinity OF the Sec
ond-street oil region was held at 8
O'Clock last evening at the federal
building on Main street. The meeting
had been called to oppose the further
development of the oil measures. and it
was decided that injunction proceedings
should be begun at once, through the
district attorneys Office, and that such
other legal talent as might be necessary
should be employed to assist the dis
trict attorney.
The meeting was not altogether har-
monious, the question OF costs giving
rise to some discussion. One enthusi-
astic gentleman said he had $50 to give
for the payment of necessary expenses.
but when the representative OF the dis
trict attorney informed the meeting that
it would be necessary to have on hand
ct le asst 5000 or $500 before suit could be
brought there was no satisfactory re-
Hponse.
The opposition to the sinking OF oil
wells, however, has so far crystalizsd
es to make it reasonably certain that the
oil prodncers will meet with some legal
objections. II the matter is to be taken
into the courts it is perhaps as well that
suits should be- begun promptly and de-
oded one way or the other as soon as

Is NOISE A NUISANCE?
LODGING HOUSES VS.. TOBOGGAN
SLIDES.
Tho Finance Committee of tho Council
Has DifHcult Matter to
Handle-A Legal
Side.

A number OF the residents and prop
erty owners in the vicinity OF the tobog-
gan slide on Broadway presented pro-
test against granting the toboggan COM
pany license, and at the last meeting
OF the city council, to which the protest
was addressed, that body referred the
matter TO its finance committee.
Yesterday morning the finance com
mittee met and had the representatives
OF both sides before 1t, and then ad-
journed without any definite result.
Further investigation will be necessary
before the finance committee can de-
eide whether tho slide ia nuisance,
and whether the city has any power to
act.
The fight on the place ia led by Man
sger Babcock of the Southern Hotel.
Mr.. Hickeon, the owner of the Rivera,
and J. K. Gilmore. owner of the South-
ern. also take hand and they have en-
ployed an attorney to look after their
interests.
Mr.. Quinn's side of the question was
not presented yesterday. HIS is the man
who has invested $4,000 in this enterprise
and on Monday will appear before the
council with his rebuttal.
He will produce a petition, he says,
signed by more than two-thirds of the
property owners in the block, and rep.
resenting over two million dollars worth
OF property. He will also claim that the
fight against him is simply a
plan to bleed him and offer in
evidence the fact that che parties who
are making the fight against him have
on numerous occasions offered to drop
the matter for consideration and
threatened if they were not paid that
they would make him tear down his in
sttution.
Last night members OF the council
visited the different buildings where
the complaints came from.
The matter will dou btless be feature
of Mondays session of the council.

EDITORIAL MENTION.

The Republican breakdown las
evening from the public debate
on county affairs was the talk of
the town. Men who were blinded
by the hrag and buster of the old
Doodle ring, saw the whole mat
ter quite clearly when the word
went a 'ong the line that the Re-
publicans had flunked.
Mrs Walsh's ranch is assessed
at $500 yet when there was talk
Of purchasing it for the county
$1,000 was the price offered, we
believe, bv Mr.. kersey himself.
We cali this high asses ment.
ne Gardner property with 600
a res is assesst d at $500. Itleases
50 acres for $50 a year. 1t is
worth between six and seven
thousand dollars. We would call
this IA low assessment.
The V. & L. II. r. Co. regards
the election of John ID. kersey as
one Of more Importance to the
country at large tnan the passage
OF a free coinage bill or the repeal
of the Mckinley law.
Some close observers who hav
been through the gre tier pare Of
the State are predicting a major
ity # III lelet 1908 for the Silver
ticket.
Storey county will give 500 ma
iority for Newlands, Jones and
the whole Silver ticket, according
o the latest reports.

A SQUARE BACkDOWN.

After all the blatant devices on
the part of the Republicans to the
financial showing made by the
Silver party, and their seeming
eagerness to meet the Silver men
in debate on the one issue of the
county campaign, the backdown
of yesterday was pitiable.
The open letter to Mr. Kersey
was mailed to every voter in the
county yesterday morning and
the Silver Central Committee was
ready to make MATCH
The only thing in the way was
the absence of one OF the prin.
ciples, Mr.. Kersey was not there.
In order to take no snap Judge
ment in the issue, the time was
extended until six in the evening,
but still Mr.. Kersey did not appear
and the Silver Central Committee
who had arranged for the Opera
House was obliged to print hand
bills informing the public that
owing to the refusal Of the Repub-
licans to meet the Silver men in
public debate, the meeting could
not be held
1t is square backdown and a
square acknowledgements that the
figures in the APPEAL were correct.
A party never before in this
county stood before the taxpayers
in such a pitiable condition, as
the Republicans Of Ormsby. The
Silver administration clearly
demonstrated that the county
could be run $4,000 year
cheaper than under the old Re-
publican ring and they are gnash-
ing their teeth with rage that the
showing has not only been made
but proven.
Later in the evening the Re
publicans pasted poster on the
dead walls containing a mass Of
figures calculated to mislead and
blind the voters, but the main is
sue, the question Of the actual dis
tursements was lodged If these
figures would bear investigation
why did not the Republicans meet
the editor of the APPEAL at the
Opera House last evening and
debate them.
The figures were only intended
to paste on a dead wall They
would not bear discussion before
an audience, and the Republicans
did not dare to trust them where
they could be exposed.
No wonder they avoided public
debate on the question.

CHATTANOOGA. Tenn. Dec. 10
While the guests e the Southern hotel
were at dinner today a heavy explosion
shook the building from basement 20 roof,
followed by a deadly silence. and then
the cry of fire rang through the corridors
like a trumpet call Instantly a panic
reigned. men and women rushed through
the halls completely bereft Of presence Of
mind, for the smoke and flames came Up
the elevator with such incredible rapidly
that everyone recognized not only their
personal effects but their lives TO be in
peril.
Aside from a large number Of transient
guests there were permanently in the
hotel between forty and fifty people, in
cluding among them several newly
married couples, who had recently taken
suites fer the winter. Among the latter
was Mr.. and Mrs. John Pitncr, who had
only this morning returned from their
bridal trip. Mrs. Pinter. nee Carter, Of
Athens had jus, finished spreading her
wedding presents about the room, valued
at several thousand dollars. and gone
down TO dinner when the fire started. The
presents and her handsome troussaau
were destroyed. The other newly-married
couples, who had at their own expense
furnished apartments in the house, lost ali
their furniture and many wedding gifts
Elegant gowns were possessed by the ma
i1rity Of the ladies' in the hotel and the
value of such articles destroyed is placed
away up in the thousands.
c. s. Todd. ticket agent of the Southern
railway, opened his door to be confronted
by a sheet Of flame. in frantic fright he
leaped through the glass window, being
badly cut by the glass and injured in the
fall Many ladies were rescued at the last
moment by firemen. Among these was
Miss Mary Robinson of Chickamauga. She
was rescued by II. 3. Childress, manager
Of the Postal telegraph.
business men who had valuable papers
and personal effect in their rooms offered
large sums TO any one VINO would make an
effort to get their things, but only two msn
dared volunteer. Within an hour the build
ing was gutted and a wreck. 1t was erected
i'm 1887 and was formerly known as the
Palace being opened first by NOight Bros.
of Cincinnati. The ground was leased for
nnty-nine years from the y. & G. railroad

MURDERED WITH AN Ak.
A. ID. Barnes. a Chicago Jonitor, the
Victim.

CHICAGO, Dec. THE dead body Of
A. d. Barnes, janitor Of the Hiawatha
building, at 25S Thirty-seventh-st., was
found this morning jammed into packing
case. which had been thrust into a hole
beneath the sidewalk on S. Park-ave., be-
tween Slxty-third and Sixty-fourth-sts.
The body, which was naked with the
exception Of a pair of socks, bore over
score Of ugly wounds, half Of them suffi-
cient to cause death, even if the man had
aimed no further injury than the one
blow. The wounds had evidently been
inflicted with both the cutting edge and
the blunt side OF an ak, and covered the
body from the right temple down to the
knees.
Two men are in custody charged with
the crime-Edward Jordan, the assistant
janitOr, and Lewis Jersey, a man Of no
occupation. The crime was unquestonably
committed in the basement of the house, as
the police discovered there ,ate this after
noon the clothing worn by Barnes when
last seen alive and the b.ood-smeared AK.
Signs Of a struggle were plainly visible,
showing that Barnes must have made
hard fight
No other motive than that of robbery is
ascribed for the crime, for Barnes, as Ear
as known, had NJ enemies, ard a watch
and $50 in money which he had or his per-
son when last seen are missing The To-
ice are also looking for Annie Mahaney
girl with whom Barnes was a one time
very intimate. There Is no especial clew
leading up to her however.

WASHINGTON. d. c. Dec. 10

WASHINGTON, D. c., Dec. 10.
The contemplated remova! of the Office
Of the collector of internal revenue from
I4awrenceburg to indianapolis is still a
subject of discussion at the treasury de-
partment Judge Holman is doing all he
can to prevent its removal, and today in
formed The Sentinel correspondent that
the change would not take place. Il have
been to see Commissioner Miller" said he
to The Sentinel correspondent, "and the
commissioner has practically indicated to
me that the change would not take pace
I desire the office to remain in Lawrence
burg which is my home. if possible, and I
do not believe that the department wi.
think the change Of sufficient Importance
TO warrant the expense which viii be in
Cured by moving it,
The Sentinel correspondent called upon
Commissioner Miller, however, in regard
to the matter and he informed him that the
department had not fully settled the ques-
ton. The republicans in congress are
evidently trying to defeat the appropria-
ton Of S5OO000 for the collection of the
tax on incomes, said he. IF they should
succeed in this the removal viii very prob
ably take place. 1 do not believe, how
ever. that they viii be successful in their
efforts to embarrass the administration by
refusing the appropriations necessary to
carry out the laws now on the statute
books. The members of the party in con-
gress with whom 1 have talked, intend to
secure this appropriation if any appropria-
tions whatever are made at this session.
If they succeed, as I believe they will, it
seems that the change Of the interna. rev.
enue office from Lawrenceburg to Indian
apolis wi be very advisable. L think the
change advisable, and the indications at
the present are that it viii be made"
Several prominent republican senators
were today seen by The Sentine, corre-
spondent and interrogated as to whether or
not they intended to Try TO prevent the ap-
propria ton for the collection of the income
tax. Senator Allison said that, while it
was the original intention Of the repub-
leans 20 pursue this course, they had prac-
tically agreed 70 allow the appropriation to
go through without any serious objection,
mercy voting against il when it comes up
in the senate. If this course is followed
out it will result in the removal of the
office to indianapolis.
