CAPTAIN KRUGER'S REPORT.
Says He Gould Find No "Games'' In
Operation.

Last evening Captain Kruger made a re-
port to the police superintendent stating
that he had visited several places where
gambling was known to be going on, but
had not found anything that would justify
him in making arrests. He had no war
rants. At the Cleveland Club he was accom-
panied by Sergeant Lowe. They were kept
waiting five minutes before the door was
opened and then they found "T' Thompson
'"Tobe" Howe and four or five other per-
sons sitting around but there was no game
in progress The report said the place had
the appearance of a gambling house and it
was the opinion of the captain that the
game had been broken up and the place
cleared during the time he was kept waiting
at the door.
At Fred Heier's place, on South New Jer-
sey street, there was a table and several
chairs in one of the upstairs rooms and
cigar and cigarette StumpS were lying about
as if a number Of men had recently been
in the room. No persons were found in
the place.
At the "Lansha" conducted by Ollie Lam
ham and Jack Shea neither of the proprie-
tors were found and there were no men in
the upper rooms, where 1t has been re-
ported there has been gambling. A billiard
table was found in one of the rooms and
the captain inferred that craps had been
played there.
Last night Captain Dawson visited sew
eraI places where it has been reported
gambling has been going on, but no games
were found and there were no arrests. Su-
perintendent Quigley says he intends to
break up all gambling and the sooner the
gamblers understand this the better it will
be for them.

PoGUE's RUN REPAIRS.
Not Relieved They VIII Prove of Much
benefit Under Present COnditiOns.

Attention has been repeatedly called to
the fact that the improvements that were
made on Pogue's run from Washington
street to the arsenal would prove worse
than useless so long as Instructions in the
lower end Of the stream were not removed.
Under the tracks of the Union Railway at
Delaware street, as well as under the Union
Station, there are arches of stone masonry
that reduce the capacity of the run nearly
one-thrd. Similar arches under the old
railroad frog works on South street are
equally as bad. The city officials have
come to realize that when the first freshet
comes the damage from overfiows will be
as great as before $4,000 was spent to
widen and straighten the run north of
Washington street, unless the capacity of
the outlet is enlarged. Yesterday the Board
of Public Works wrote a letter to A. A
Zion. of the Indianapolis Union Railway
Company, directing that the arches at Del
aware street and under the Union Station
be removed to the satisfaction of the city
engineer. A notice was also sent to Will
liam G. Cochran, directing him to remove
house that projects over the run at Willard
street What the intentions are with ref
erence to the stone arches that extend
across South street and under the old rail-
road frog works does not appear. 1t is
feared that II all these stone arches are not
taken out the water will back up just as
bad as formerly.
PeOpIe said yesterday that the city Of
fcfals are Well aware that when a big rain
comes the useleSsnesS of the work that was
done during the campaign when SIS, 900 was
spent to keep the boo gang in line will
appear, and that the railroad company was
notified simply as a bluff" 1t is said that,
with winter coming on and the probability
of rain coming to hinder the work it
would be unwiSe for the railroad to under
take to remove the arches under the depot
at this time. The work will be expensive
and will require a good deal of time. If the
railroad company refuses to act and
Pogue's run overflows just as bad as ever
it is said the administration will blame the
railroad, and will claim that everything
possible has been done by the officials. Why
the Board Of Works did not write Superin.
tendent Zion three or four months ago that
the arches must be removed is not known
If that work had been begun before the
superintendent of streets put his men to
digging out and Strengthening the channel
north of Washington street the outlet
would have been more nearly adequate to
carry off the water. The volume of the
run has been greatly increased toward the
source but the outlet his been in no wise
enlarged. 1t never was sufficiently large,
and the claim is made that all overfows in
the past have been due to the water back
ing up from the stone arches. Pogue's run
in its present shape is a good zeal like a
funnel When the mouth is filed faster
than the outlet will carry off the water, it

A loan A.xociation,. Affairs.

Saturday night there is to be a meeting
of the stockholders Of the Mechanics
Mutual Savings and Loan Association, No.
l, for the purpose, it is stated. of consid-
ering g. plan by which the stockholders can
recover from the directors money alleged
to have been disbursed out of the loan fund
in violation OF the law. The meeting of the
stockholders is to be held at the grocery
at Nutz & Groskopf No. "a West Maryland
street. Peter Nutz, one of the stockholders,
says that after the association was put into
the hands Of an assignee the fact was dis
closed that between $1,000 and $4,000 had
been paid out of the loan fund in salaries
and other expenses and that 1t was on ac-
count of these expenditures that the assoc
citation had to make an assignment. Mr..
Nutz says some of the stockholders talk
Of bringing an action against the directors
to force them to reimburse the loan fund.

CHIEF BARRETr,s SCHEME.
Plan to Furnish Suburban Towns with
Fire Protection

Fire Protection.
Since the fire at the state fair grounds
the other night, Chief Barrett has been
considering the ACCESSIBILITY of forming
suburban fire protection of some kind 1t
Is only question of time when many of
the smaller towns near Indianapolis will be
reached by electric lines, as Broad Ripple
now is In the East large cities that are
connected with smaller towns by electric
roads have arrangements for sending fire
apparatus III case of CONGREGATIONS at
very short notice. The plan proposed is to
nave special platform cars built suitable to
run over the electric tracks. Such cars In
other cities have a sort of end-board at the
rear of the cars which can be let down to
the ground to form runway" to drive
the apparatus upon the car. BY having two
or three such cars here it would be possible
cai apparatus, etc, to the scene of the fire
in very short time. If such an arrange
ment had been in existence at the time OF
the recent disastrous Broad Ripple fire
some of the six men that persisted in the
flames might have been rescued. The fire
at the fair grounds the other night demon
strated that the State Board of Agriculture
may suffer heavy loss from flames at al
most any moment. 1t has been suggested
that a large ciStern might be constructed In
different buildings the cistern could very
easily be kept filled by the rains most of
the year. In dry seasons good well and
wind pump would furnish plenty of water.
CINE from the indianapolis department and
a load of hose could prevent much loss. The
plan Chief Barrett has in mind, 1t is
claimed would be SO trifiing in the expense

good that might he Accomplished

TAGGART CRITICISED.
Irish Societies Not Pleased with His
Treatment of Timothy SpIann.

In indianapolis there are many Irish So
cieties. Their influence is always felt in
politics. Just now they are considerably
wrought up over the action of the mayor in
deposing Timothy Splann. chief of detec-
tiyes, to make a place for ex-Superintend-
ent Colbert. Last night several Of the most
influential societies met. The mayors ac-
ton came in for a good deal of criticism
and resolutions were passed condemning
him for the course he pursued. Mr.. Splann
is popular in the fraternal organizations,
and has many warm friends who resent the
way in which he was turned down. Ii is said
that Colbert does not stand very well with
these organizations. A number of promi-
nent men in the societies say that the may
or has made a serious blunder, from a po-
ltical point of view if from no other.
