any clause of the civil-service law or rules

There is no man in the civil service that

Comfort for MIR. Griggs.

To the Editor Of the Indianapolis Journal:
In your issue of yesterday Mr.. j. T.. Griggs
seems a trife nervous over the possible pas
sage of an ordinance forbidding horses to
stand on the downtown streets longer than
thirty minutes. My advice to Mr.. Griggs
is to sell his factory and invest his money
in a livery stable, bicycle factory or a
street railroad. in whose interest this ordi-
nance is to be passed. But. to be serious,
what right has Mr.. Griggs to operate a fac
tory In Indianapolis? In spite of ourselves
we have a population of 100000. 3nd Mr.,
(sriggs must surely see that If we pass an
ordinance making 1t difficult for Il IAN to
make his business drives we shall soon de-
crease our members until the streets will
readily hold all cur horses at one stand
in" / further suggest that Mr.. Griggs re-
move his plant to Irvington, get a horse
sense council and annex indianapolis.
However. Mr.. Griggs should take courage
in the fact that the social and gosspy ele-
ment Of our metropolis is not to be dis
furbed since the inhibition shall apply only
IL business streets. But if Mr.. Griggs is
determined to keep his industry mere and
feed the mouths of many indianapolis fam
lilies / suggest that he employ a small
how to herd" his horse. with Instructions
10 move every thirty minutes. Finally, Mr..
(srfggs If you don't like our ordinance, hitch
your horse at the Belt and walk init is
only two miles. Great is indianapolis!
Greater are its fathers-nit

POGUE's RUN PARK.
People of the Northeast Feel that
Scant Courtesy Was Shown Them.


A good many citizens of the northeast
part of the city feel much piqued at the
scant courtesy shown the committee that
appointed to confer with the Board of
Works concerning parks along Pogues run.
When the committee called on the board
to present the question the board declined
to hear what was to be said, stating that
the wishes of the property owners were
known and that there was no use to dis
cuss the subject. Many do not regard this
as at all satisfactory and fear that moth
ing will be done toward securing parks in
their part of the city. A mass meeting has
been called for Wednesday evening. Jan. s.
This time it will be held in Brghtwood
Residents of the suburb are much inter-
ested in the subject. The Pogue's run tract
including the YandeS and John Hancock
lands, lies along the stream and extend as
lies within easy walking distance of Bright
wood and citizens of the suburb would have
the advantage of parks il they were To-
Gated along Pogueis run. 1t is announced
that the subject will he agitated until def
mite promises have been made by the adj
ministration. There is a feeling that
the board intends to ignore sugges-
lions from citizens and then claim
the credit for anything it may decide to
do, If 1t does anything. Residents OF the
northeast section of the city say that they
DO not care for the credit, particularly, so
they get the parks. Nevertheless they say
it is true that no one thought about con-
sidering their rights until a clamor was
raised eight or nine months ago.

On Sunday the greatest express engine
ever run west of Pittsburg was sent out
at the head of Panhandle train No. T. and
came in on No. % Monday morning. 1t was
a gigantic Glass L engine, with eighty-inch
drive wheels weighing $4,000 pounds, num-
bered 1904. The 1904 is a standard p. r. r..
engine which is being tried on the Penn
sylvania lines west and if she proves a sue

and a few of them may De sent to Fort
Wayne to haul the New York and Chicago

very best shape, having just left the Penn
sylvania, where she had been doing hard
work on regular fast trains she performed
well on the Panhandle and brought in her
heavy train. No. 20, yesterday morning on
time. Engineer James COnboy had charge
of the monster on her first trip and Engi-
neer Robert Buchanan on the second trip,
which was completed Tuesday. On the
east-bound trip the big machine had to

on the system. and although handicapped
by inferior coal at the worst end of the
run, she made great time up and down

Sending Big Engines West.

A railroad attorney, in commenting on the
situation. said he was glad that there was
growing inclination, especially with those
in high authority, to treat railroad inter
ests more conservatively. The railroads
of the country are not only earning a large
revenue, but things very favorable to them
are happening frequently. The extension
of the time for equipment of cars and en-
gines with automatic coupers and air.
brakes by the Interstate-commerc Commits
sion is a matter of the greatest Importance
to the railroads, as the equipment will be
very expensive and would have been bur-
den the most of them could not have easily
borne to have made the change at the time
originally proposed. The total expense thus
far has run into millions, and much is yet
to be done. The attorney thought the vari-
Gus courts were prone to give the roads a
better chance, and it could not now be said
that the railroads, as a rule, were not fair
ly treated. There was disposition TO pro-
tect the men who had really put their mon
ey into the securities of roads. In one di-
rection the railroad companies have done
much to lessen litigation in the lower courts,
and whenever any person presents a claim,
and on the face of it there is shown to be
just cause for damages, the general solicitor
or his representative will take the matter
up at once, and if it can be adjusted on
a reasonable basis it is done without liti-
cation or red tape. He cited number of
cases in the last year where damages had
been claimed that were settled before get
ting into the courts. He thought that just
now she railway arrangements were their
worst affection if the reports of the great
Generalization in rates were true. He was
satisfied that it would be better for all lines
cones ned to divide the business more equal
~ and leave rates that yield some revenue
above actual cost of transportation.

There is excellent authority for stating
that President ingalls, intends to promote
Edward F. Cost, general freight agent of
the Big Four lines, to the position of freight
traffic manager, and the impression is that
w. d. Holiday, assistant general freight
agent will be promoted to the position of
general freight agent. Mr. Cost began his
railroad career on the Bee-line as Office boy,
but his first official work was with the
directly connected with the freight depart
ment of the Big Four, and has filled every
position with marked ability. His ability
as a freight man is readily acknowledged
by such men as Oscar Murray. receiver OF
the Baltimore & Ohio, formerly traff1c man.
traffic manager of the Pennsylvania lines
west of Pittsburg. and G. j. Grammar, traf-
fic manager of the Lake Shore.

BEHIND IN STALL RENTS

AMOUNTING TO NEARLY $4,000.
These Must Be Paid by Friday Night
-POgue's Run Park Mass
Meeting.


Market Master Goebel has had difficulty
in collecting stall rent from many of the
East market tenants Stalls are leased
June l each year. Under the rules of the
Board of Safety and the requirements of
the market ordinance one-half the yearly
rental is payable in advance and the re-
naming half Dec. fnis year number
of the tenants ask. II few days delay,
promising to pay the second instalIment aft
er Christmas. The board granted the con-
cession asked. At present there is between
$4,000 and $1,000 due on the second INSTALL
ment
Mr.. Goebel has made every effort pos
sble to collect the rents since Christmas,
but has been met with many excuses. To-
morrow is the last day of the year. He
says that all rents must positively be paid
by that time. If they are not the Board of
Safety will exercise it's right of declaring
all leases forfeited and will auction them
off early next week, perhaps Monday.
Under the provisions of the ordinance no
man whose lease is declared forfeited can
bid on any market stall or hold space about
the markets for year. Notices have been
posted about the market informing stall
holders that the rules will be strictly en-
forced and no further excuses will be re-
ceived The Board Of Safety does not pro-
pose to be annoyed by tenants who are un-
able or unwilling to pay the rents due the
city. A good deal of leniency has been
shown to those who were in straits but
the board does not feel warranted in
granting further favors to those who can
pay as we'll as not Mr.. Goebe says that
the most trouble Is experienced in the meat
market and inside the big building, as the
country market gardeners who occupy
space on the outside more prompt and
less troubesome.lfa1a ss
