ment on the ground that the term, two

of value; that King might have intended,
so far as the indictment showed, TO vote
the Republican ticket anyhow that it was
not charged that. the Republican ticket was
before the voters for their suffrage, and
that the statute only forbids hiring persons
to vote for a Candidate rather than a

ON A GRAIN DEAL.
Lawrenceburg Mills Company Sues ii
f.. Kinney & Co.

In the Superior Court yesterday the Law
renceburg Roller Mills Company began an
action for damages for alleged breach of
contract against Horace E. Kinney & Co.,
grain Dealers of Indianapolis. The COM
plant recites that the plaintiffs, July 10
last, entered into a contract with Kinney
& Co. by which the firm was to furnish the
Lawrenceburg mills 80, 900 bushels of wheat
at GO cents a bushel. The grain, it is
averred was to be shipped during the
month of July. The plaintiffs aver they
made preparations to grind the wheat into
flour, and had arranged TO dispose of most
of it during the first half of the month of
August. Kinney q Co., it is claimed, began
shipping the wheat but dld not complete
the contract, and the latter part of July
asked and were granted an extension of
time in which to furnish the remainder of
the order.
The charge is made that the defendants
might have completed the shipment by
Aug. 16, and it is intimated that the firm
finding that the price of wheat had gone up
in the meantime, declined to buy the grain
at the prevailing price. The plaintiffs de-
clare that when it was discovered that the
defendant company was not making an
honest effort to fulfill the contract they de-
manded that the remainder of the wheat be
declared he was under no obligations to
furnish more grain. The plaintiffs aver
that on Aug. 16 there was yet due them on
the Kinney contract 20,942 bushels of wheat.
At the time, 1t is claimed, the price of
wheat was 81 cents, and has not since gone
lower. The plaintiffs declare that they
have been damaged in the sum of 3,769,
and ask judgment for that amount.

To the Editor of the Indianapolis Journal:
inclose a notice recently received from
the Natural Gas Company which reads:
Beginning Oct /, 1897 the rate for nat
ural gas. when used for fuel and light, win
be 70 cents per 1000 cubic feet When used
for fuel only the rate viii be the same as
heretofore, 1913 cents per 1000 cubic feet"
l understand that consumers will not be
allowed to use two meters, one for fuel
and one for light. The notice is to prove a
prohibitory measure, and force consumers
to go back to the use of artificial gas at
about ten times the cost of the natural ar
ticle. Most of the business houses and a
great many residences piped their places
and put in Welsbach burners at consider
able expense. In order TO get the cheaper
and better light, the Light, Heat and Pow
er Company tartltcial gas manufactured
feeling the falling off in this custom. have
got some sort of a push on the Natural
Gas Company with the result of this notice
being served. DO you or your readers know
OF any similar state of affairs in any other
town supplied with natural gas or have
you any suggestions To offer? IT is to be
regretted that the Light Heat and Power
Company finds that the circumstances of
trade and manufacture have set against
them, but are consumers TO be compelled
10 buy their gas at 81. so per 900 Ness dis
counts, instead of buying a better article

NEW SALARY ORDINANCE
MIR. WOLCOTT WILL TRY TO PASS
ONE DURING PRESENT COUNCIL.
lit VIII Fix the Salary and Wages
of Every EmpIOye of
the City.

Frank Z. Wolcott, chairman of the Coun-
ell finance committee, is at work on an
amended salary ordinance In 1894 an ordi-
nance of this kind was passed, fixing the
salaries of the mayor, heads of depart
ments, clerks in the various boards, and
some of the minor positions in the en-
gineer's and foreman of street repairs Of
fee. Many of the minor positions were not
covered by the ordinance, such as laborers
in the street repairs department, sewer
gangs and the like. Since the ordinance
was passed the park law went into effect,
and several ordinances creating offices with
in the discretion of the various boards have
been passed. The offices thus created are
not regulated in the salary ordinance. A
recent instance was the garbage ordinance,
which authorized the board to see that the
law was observed by the garbage contrac-
tor, and presumably carried with it the
power to appoint inspectors for that pur-
pose. In such cases the boards have en-
ployed men at their own discretion. stipu-
lating what salary they should receive.
When Smith Meyers was made chief garb-
age inspector his salary was fixed at SIS
a month, although inspectors in the en-
gineer's office were only receiving $50 a
month under the ordinance of 1894
discretionary power in the matter of en-
ploying laborers in various capacities and
pays such wages as it regards advisable
1t is understood that the new ordinance
is aimed more at the Park Board than in
any other direction. Salaries in that de-
partment were increased at the pleasure of
the Park Board, which was under no check
in this respect.
Mr.. Wolcott's ordinance will fix the sal
aries and wages to be paid every employee
of the city, in order that no discretionary
power in the matter of paying employees
may be exercised in the future by any de-
partment. The provisions of this ordinance
were talked over at the meeting of the
finance committee last Friday night. Con-
troller Johnson was present to give infor-
nation concerning the general appropria-
ton ordinance which was passed Monday
night. He gave the idea hearty approval
He told the committee that he thought it
was subject that ought to be taken up
and disposed of. Mr.. johnson believes it
unWlse TO leave discretionary power with
any department when it comes to spending
money.
1t was Mr.. Wolcott's intention to intro
duce the ordinance at the meeting of the
Council Monday night, but as it is very
pared in time. The chairman of the finance
committee is ambitious to get this measure
through before he leaves the Council. 1t is
possible that special meeting will be called
yet this month for it's Introduction, there
is but one more regular meeting before the
presen& Council adjourns sine die. All Or
dinances have to lay over at least one meet
ing night before they can be passed with
out unanimous consent and as this subject
is one of considerable Importance, the Coun-
Gil will want to give it careful consideration.

The damage suit of Lydia A. Sanderson
against the Citizens Street-railroad Com
pany is again on trial in the Superior Court
The case was tried in Room last spring,
but the jury failed to agree. The plaintin
was injured May 49, 1896, while getting off a
car at the corner OF Washington and Penn
sylvania streets. She charges that the car
started forward before she had time to
alight. She says that at the time of the
accident she was under contract to go to
San Jose, Cal, to clerk in a store where
she was to receive a salary of $40 a week.
On account of her injuries she was unable
to take the position She estimates her
damages at $4,000 The street-car company
claim the plaintiffs injuries are due to her
own negligence in trying TO get off the car
before it had stopped.

MARKET ON SIDEWALKS.
Controller johnson Does Not Believe
Hucksters Must Move.

Hucksters Must Move.
Controller Johnson says that he was in
terested in the recent decision of what IS
known as the Richmond market case by the
Supreme Court. Mr.. Johnson says that the
decision Of the court was. in effect, that a
city cannot take streets for market pur-
poses in front of residences, where the own
ers would be annoyed by marketers coming
and going in the night, unless the prop
erty owners give consent. At first he was
under the impression that the decision
might make it necessary to discontinue the
use OF the sidewalks about the courthouse
for market purposes, but after reading the
abstracts published, he decided this would
not be the effect of the decision unless the
county should object. AS matter of fact,
county officials are put TO considerable in
convenience in getting in and out of the
courthouse on market days, and would have
the right to apply for an injunction if they
were so inclined.
the fact that Delaware, Market and Ala
bama STREETS are practically tmpaSsabl on
account of market wagons backed up at
the courthouse sidewalks on market days,
but Mr.. Johnson does not think any one
would have the right TO relief, under the de-
csion of the Supreme Court, with the ex-
ception of the proper county officials.
The city derives considerable revenue
from the use of the sidewalks by the mar
raised as to whether the county was not
entitled to some portion of the fees collect
ed but il was tacitly decided not to push
that subject to a court decision.

prosecution against him and caused him no
end of trouble and humiliation. He AYERS
that on July q, 1897, he was arrested at
the Union Station at the instance of the de-
PENDANTS, and detained for seventeen hours.
The alleged cause of the detention was
claim against him for $685. The plaintiff adj
mi-s he was about leaving the city, but de-
clares he did not individually owe the de-
PENDANTS anything, and had left sufiiciens

Arrangements are being made by City At
torney Curtis and John w. Kern, special
counsel in the street-car litigation, to push
the case in the Hamilton county Circuit
Court that has been pending there several
years. AS outlined by the mayor after the
3-cent-fare law became operative, efforts
will be made in this suit to quiet the citys
title to the streets of indianapolis. 1t is
claimed that the pleadings will be amended
so as to get all the issues involved in this
important subject in the Hamilton county
case. Some time ago the city attorney said
that an effort would be made to get every
phase of the question into the record, so
that the entire Street-car question might be
passed on by the Indiana Supreme Court.
Additional pleadings will be filed at Mobiles
Vile. AS amended they will bear on the
status of both the Citizens Street-railroad
and the City Railway Company under the
New act. The court will be asked to en-
join both companies from occupancy of the
streets after 1901.

Total recelpts ..............

IOldl TeceiplS AZy, o6U 10
The superintendent of the grounds has
turned in $l,97O.95 received for privileges,
and Secretary Kennedy has turned over
$4,932.50 for entrance fees, privilege tickets
stall rent etc, and $4,000 or $1,000 is still to
be paid in by the secretary. Estimating
the amount still to come in, the total re-
ceipts will aggregate over $4,000.
The bills are not all in and will not be
for some time, but they are estimated at
about $4,000 The income of the board last
year was $50 294, and the fair opened this
year about $1,000 behind. The grounds were
improved during the year a cost of over
$1,000 The board will probably have about
$1,000 in the treasury after the accounts sLTe
all settled Mr.. Robinson says they will
have to pay 81 400 rent for the grounds next
March, and about 1850 in insurance will
have to be paid; and this, together with the
expenses OF the January meeting and the
meetings of the executive committee, will
probably take all the cash they have on
nand.
In November the board will receive from
the State the appropriation of $4,000. which
is allowed annually under the act of 1895,
and this will probably not have to be
drawn upon before the opening of the next
fair.

ONLY OWNED THE DOG,
But @. A. Reichert Claimed He Had
Paid Taxes on 1t.


Charles A. Reichert began an action yes
terday for injunction in the Superior Court
against VIM. H. Schmidt, treasurer. and
Harry B. Smith, auditor of Marion county.
Reichert asks that these officials be en-
joined from collecting alleged illegal taxes
charged against him. In his complaint he
states that while he was abroad, in 1895, the
township assessor made an alleged list of
his personal property, and in his absence
signed plaintiffs name TO the list. He AYERS
he was listed for 81 900 worth of personal
property, including two dogs and poll
The tax charged to him on this amount of
property he AYERS, was SIS to which was
added penalties and delinquencies. The au-
ditor, 1t Is claimed, placed the list on the
tax duplicate and then turned it over to
the treasurer, who has demanded payment,
and threatens to levy on the plaintiff
property The complaint ayers that at the
time the assessment was made the plaintiff
had no personal property except one dog
on which he had already paid the required
amount of tax. He says he has also paid
his poll tax, and asserts that the invalid
assessment now stands as a title on his
real estate. He asks that the treasurer be
restrained from collecting the assessment
and the auditor be required to cancel the
same on the tax duplicate.
