THE TRIAL OF BURTON
PROSECUTOR WILTsIE URGED TO
FOLLOW THE CASE.
1t VIII Come Up the Middle of Next
Month-AIIowances Made i'm
Ferriter Case.

Prosecuting Attorney Wiltsie had a con-
ference yesterday with the County Com
missioners concerniI & the trial of Burton
the alleged slayer Of Fireman James Red
mond. 1t was expected the case will be
called up in the Hancock county court
about the middle of next month.
The commissioners are anxious that Mr.
Wiltsie should prosecute the case in person,
and have urged him to make his arrange
ments to go down to Greenfield when the
case is called. The prosecutor is not eager
to go, but realizes that some one should
conduct the prosecution who is familiar
with all that has thus far been done in the
case Mr.. Wiltsie, it is understood, is quite
willing for the commissioners to appoint
some one else to conduct the prosecution.
The statutes do not require the prosecu-
tor to follow case from the county. Mr.
Wiltsie only appeared in the Ferriter case
because he was urged to take part in 1t.
He drew no allowance from the county,
and in fact was only paid his expenses.
He says that his time will be fully occu-
pied here in the disposition of the usual
large accumulation of minor cases. It is
understood however, that the commission
ers will insist on the prosecutor appearing
in the case.

DIR. Carver wants "A Place.

DR.. William r. Carver, formerly of Ham
iIton county, has been mentioned about the
City Hall the last day or two as a likely
man for one of the subordinate places under
the Board Of Health. DR.. Carver had a
temporary place on the board. His friends
say that he is thoroughly competent for
either the superintendency of the hospital
or for police surgeon. 1t now appears that
the vacancy in the office of police surgeon
will not occur until Jan. l, as DR.. Courtney
was not appointed until Jan. /, 1896. 1t is
believed that he will serve out the two
years. 1t is said at the City Hall that DR..
Bruce NJ Wylie has not been formally APP
pointed, but that ne has the inside track:
In the event DR.. Carver is not given one of
the two most important places, his friends
say that he would make a good man for
clerk of the board. No announcements
were made by the various boards yester-

He Kept Her Cooped Up.

Judge Allen, of the Circuit Court, heard a
peculiar story of jealousy yesterday in the
divorce proceedings of Minnie Marley
against William Marley. The plaintiff is
young and good looking. She testified that
her husband was so jealous of her that he
kept her cooped up in the house on hot days.
He dsliked for her to speak to neighbor
and would not let her read letter from her
mother until he had perused it. At the con-
clusion of the case Mrs. Marley's attorney
intmated that the father should do some
thing toward the support of their child, but
the plaintiff spunkily asserted she wanted
none of the defendants money.
Other divorces were granted as follows in
the Circuit and Superior courts: Edith Van
Every from Michael II. Van Every, Lulu
Kershner from Charles Kershner, MOilie
McIrnery from Michael McIrnery, Anna
Moon from John Moon, Cameron Merri-

tins, while forty-one were due to careless
ness of the company or uncomfortable cir
cumstances. OF the injured ninety-four

informed her when the car arrived at the
tunnel that she must transfer there. She
says she did not desire to be set down at
that point after night and requested that

however, that the conductor refused to

HEATING STREET CARS
CITIZENS COMPANY PLANNING TO
AVOID THE ORDINANCE.
Board of Health Refuses to Aid the
COmpany-HOt Air Does Not
Mean Foul AIR.

The Street Car Company is trying to find
some way to avoid the ordinance passed by
the Council last spring requiring it to heat
all street cars after Dec. /, in weather
when the temperature is below 20 degrees
above zero. w. f. Milholland, secretary of
the company, called en- the Board Of Health
yesterday morning to see if the board
could not be induced to decree that it would
be unhealthy to have the cars heated. Mr..
Milholland contended to President Morrison
that to have stoves in the cars would cause
the air to become foul and unhealthy when
it was heated. Mr.. Miholland said that
electric heaters were unfeasible, because
they consume so much power. He also
said that the company could not charge
steam coils under the seats with hot water
at each end of the line as is done in New
York and other cities, because in Indian
apolis all cars do not pass a given station.
where the cold water could be drawn and
the coils charged with hot water.
Dr. Morrison, after referring to the ordi-
nance, informed Mr. Milholland that the
Board of Health has nothing to do with the
enforcement of the ordinance. That rests
entirely with the police department
Mr.. Milholland limited that the company
wanted the health officials to decree that il
would De unhealthy to neat the cars, as
hot air becomes foul. DR.. Morrison told
him that it did rot necessarily follow that
air was foul because it was hot. He in
sisted that the constant opening and shut
ing of the car doors to receive and dis
charge passengers would insure the admis-
sion of abundant fresh air. IF the air be-
comes too hot" said he cannot your
crews open the ventilators at the top of
the cars?
The health officials gave Mr.. Milholland
to understand that they would not only not
hold that hot air was dangerous, but that
they regarded it necessary to the health
of passengers to have the cars comfortably
warmed during very cold weather. Mr..
Mlholland had nothing to say when he
was asked if the overhead ventiatorS could
not be opened if the cars b scame too warm,
a danger which no one apprehends save the
street car officials who would like to avoid
the expense attached to complying with the
ordinance.
1t was said yesterday that the street car
company is making every effort to comply
with the ordinance, as 1T cannot deny the
Council has the right to order the cars
heated in it's exercise of the police powers
conferred by the State. President Morri-
son, of the Health Board, and DR.. Clark,
city sanitarian, made It plain to the secre-
tary of the company that nothing will be
done by the health officials to induce the
Council to repeal the OF dinance-
