NO ANSWER IN GAS CASE
CITY ATTORNEYS DELAY in THIS
IMPORTANT MATTER CONTINUES.
Supreme Courts Important Ruling on
a WOman's InchOate Right
to an Estate.

The city attorney has not yet filed the
city's answer in the gas injunction case, and
the gas company continues TO charge its
old rates in spite of the ordinance. This
answer was due from the city attorney sew
eral weeks ago and the long delay serves to
give color to the claim made that during
the campaign an understanding was
reached between the gas company and the
Taggart administration that this litigation
should not be pushed.
The Logansport and Wabash Valley Gas
Company, which is controlled by the same
syndicate that owns the indianapolis Gas
Company, obtained from the Federal Court
yesterday a temporary injunction against
the city of Peru, preventing it from enforc-
ing an ordinance for cheap gas The in
junction is upon precisely the same terms
as that obtained against the city OF Indians
apolis, that is the company is required to-
give bond that in case it fails to obtain
permanent injunction it will refund all pay
mentS in excess of the ordinance rate.

cATARRH OF THE STOMACH
A Pleasant, simple, but safe and Eff
fectuaI Care for 1t.

Catarrh Of the stomach has long been con.
sidered the next thing to incurable. The
usual symptoms are full or bloating sensa-
ton after eating, accompanied sometimes
with sour or wGtery risings. formation of
gases, causing pressure on the heart and
lungs, and difficult breathing; headaches,
tickle appetite, nervousness and q general
played out, languid feeling.
There is often foul taste in the mouth,
coated tongue and if the interior of the
stomach could be seen 1t would show a
Shiny, infamed condition.
The cure for this common and obstinate
trouble is found in treatment which causes
the food to be readily, thoroughly digested
before 1t has time to ferment and irritate the
delicate mucous surfaces of the stomach.
To secure prompt and healthy digestion is
the one necessary thing to do and when
normal digestion is secured the catarrhal
condition will have disappeared.
According to DR.. Harlandson the safest
and best treatment is to use after each meal
a tablet composed of Diastase, Aseptic Pep
sin, a little Nux, Golden Seal and fruit
acids. These tablets can now be found at
all drug stores under the name of Stuarts
medicine can be used with perfect safety
and assurance that healthy appetite and
use after meals
Mr. n. j. Booher of 2710 Dearborn street,
Chicago, Ill., writes: "Catarrh is a local
condition, resulting from neglected cold in
the head. whereby the lining membrane OF
the nose becomes inf1amed and the poison
GUS discharge therefrom passing backward
INTO the throat, reaches the stomach, thus
producing catarrh of the stomach. Medical
authorities prescribed for me for three years
for catarrh of stomach without cure: but to-
day l am the happiest of men after using
only one box of Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets.

tite and sound rest from their use.

ton. catarrh of stomach, biliousness, sour
stomach. heartburn and bloating after

SEQUESTERED PROPERTY.
County Assessor Making an Effort to-
Locate 1t.

County Assessor Boswell and his deputies
are reviewing the assessment lists given in
during the last year, and comparing them
with records and lists of other years. BY
this plan the assessor hopes to locate any
thing in the way of sequestered property, of
which it is suspected there is considerable
quantity. The assessor is looking chiefly for
mortgages on outside property, which the
owners have failed to give in. Following is
the form of notice the assessor is sending
out to persons who are believed to be hold
ing back taxable property:
1.-THE records show that there was per-
sonal property in your name on April l,
ment list. Please call at my Office on or be-
fore and explain why such property
should not be added to your tax list In
case you fail to appear by that time, the
law makes it my duty to adjust the matter
in your absence by having the tax duph-
Gates corrected accordingly"

TWO HOURS FROM LOUISVILLE
The Carrier Pigeons Fly the Distance
of 40 Miles.

The contest between five members of the
Indianapolis Homing Club in its flight of
pigeons from Louisville to this city yester-
day morning, has been decided. The
birds were released at o'clock at
Louisville and began arriving here at about
10 O'clock Each bird would, of course, so
to its own cote, and as these are located
in different parts of the city, the differ
ence in the distance has to be considered.
The arrival of each bird was noted and the
exact time taken down. To-day the exact
flying time of each bird will be
computed and the records made
known. H. c. Shroeder's birds made
the no miles in two hours and one
minute, and took first prize.
The second bird at the loft of George
Detz at 1903 o'clock; time, 2 hours and 3
minutes. Edward II. Foullors's bird made
the journey in hours and II minutes. Hugo
Prillers pigeon came next with q mark of
2:1219. There were forty birds in the race
and thirty-five came in before II o'clock.
The next club race will be from Bowling

SITUATION AS TO RATES
FIRMLY HELD HERE, BUT DEMORAL-
lied AT OTHER POINTS.
The Pennsylvania officials Complete
Their Inspection-MiscelIa
and Personal Notes.

A fast freight line official, in speaking of
the rate situation, yesterday, said: ''At In
dianapolis rates are held nearer to tariff
than at any other point, and at the same
time 1 do not know of any place where
shippers are better satisfied with the rates
at which their freights are carried than
at Indianapolis. At Chicago, Peoria and st.
Louis there is more or less decentralization
in rates, and at those points the favored
shippers are less contented than where
rates are better maintained This may be
all right, but some of these freight officials
are running a great risk; some day they
will be brought up with short turn by
the interstate-commerce officials, and there
will be no leniency extended toward them.
The time is not far distant when the rate
demoralizers will be taught the lesson
that the Interstate-commerce Commission
and the bureaus it operates are not oper-
ated for the fun of the thing, but to bring
violators of the interstate-commerce act to
respect the laws of the country. At this
time 1t is a fact that steps are being taken
to punish the violators of the interstate
commerce act, and it will not in the future
be so easy to evade the law and defeat the
ends for which it was passed. With the
great difficulty there is in supplying the
demand for cars to move the business at
tariff rates. think ii an outrage that some
soliciting agent should have the power to
name rates which often hardly pay for car
rying the business. Such soliciting agents
and the general freight agents who counte-
nance such work should be made to feel
that the laws of the United States TO reg
ulate traffic should be respected, and If a
half dozen of these rate cutters could be
punished as prescribed by law this rate de-
mVralization would be short lived"

Supreme Courts Ruling as to the
Right of Dover.

Right of Dover.
The Supreme Court yesterday rendered a
decision in the case of Patrick Haggarty
against Mary J. Wagner that lays down a
new doctrine in realty law. Briefly stated,
this doctrine is that the necessity of parti-
ton of an estate is paramount to the in
choate right of dover residing in the wife
of an heir; that the right of dover does not
accrue until the partition has been made
and the property set off in severalty.
Mary ]. Wagner sued in the Superior
Court to set aside the partition under which
her husbands property had been sold, and
which she claimed to know nothing about.
She won her case in the lower court. but
this was reversed by the Supreme Court.
The decision was written by Judge McCabe,
who stated the question thus:
us it necessary in a partition suit be-
tween co-tenants. where one of the Gotten
ants has a wife living at the time partition
proceedings are had, to make such wife a
party thereto in order to make such pro-
ceedings binding on her in case she outlives
her husband and becomes his surviving
widow
The court refers to the statute declaring
a wife entitled to one-third of all land
owned by her husband and conveyed with
out her consent with the exceptions in ia
vor of prior liens and the right of eminent
domain, and continues:
mo reason has been suggested nor can
we think of any why the inchoate right of
not be extinguished by 9 partition sale
without making her a party, as well as in
cases. where the husbands title was divest-
ed before the section took effect, in cases
The Indianapolis journal. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1867-1904, 1897-11-05

where liens on the land existed at the time
the husband became seized, or where his
seizin was only for a temporary purpose,
appropriated upon compensation in the ex-
ercise of eminent domain, or in cases of
lie use in making highways, canals, rail-
roads, streets, market places and the like"
Judge McCabe's conclusion is thus stated
necessary and the inchoate right of the
wife of a cO-tenant cannot both exist. One
or the other of these rights must give way
and be submerged. 1t ought not, in reason
it cannot, be the paramount right There
fore. it must be the inferior right that is
submerged. 1t follows, from what
we have said that upon principle, the par
tition sale and deed in question vested in
the purchaser the entire title to the real
property in question and extinguished the
inchoate interest of the appellee therein.

THE AssIGNEE's DEFENSE.
Judge Aliens Order i'm the Mechanics
Mutual Case.

In the litigation of the Mechanics Mutual
Savings and Loan Association and the Me-
chanics' Mutual Savings and Loan Associa-
ton, No. 1, Judge Allen yesterday made an
order instructing the assignee to investi-
gate fully the liability of the directors and
officials of the two associations, and bring
any action against them he deemed neces-
sary. 1t is charged that the officials Of the
associations borrowed money from the loan
fund when they had no right to do this.
The attorneys in the case were before the
court yesterday when it made this order.
The assignee declared he had never shown
an unwillingneSS to bring a suit against the
officers. He only desired instructions as to
how to proceed. The attorneys for the
stockholders claim the same kind of an
order was made five months ago, and was
never carried out. Attorney Hord intimated
to Judge Allen yesterday that a special
judge should be appointed to hear this liti-
cation. The court replied that he required
no one else to do his work.
