To admit that the building and loan busi- ness is not a good business Is to admit that the members have not enough intelligence TO make rules for their, own benefit. 1T the Investor is paid too much, the borrower pays too high a rate of interest. lf tnS borrower pays too low a rate, the investor gets too small d return.

MKENNA & WELSH DocKETED.
Inspector CosRrove Again Charges
Violation OF Plumbing Ordinance.

Inspector CosRrOve Again Charges
Violation OF Plumbing Ordinance.
Plumbing Inspector Cosgrove is having
endless trouble with MeKenna & Welsh,
the plumbers, who are resisting the in
spector's efforts to enforce the ordinance
The firm was docketed in Police Court
some time ago for refusing TO alter work
in accordance with the ordinance, as most
all the other plumbers did. The firm now
refuses TO submit plans of the work they
DO. as required by the ordinance. and It
is for this they have been docketed a sec
Cnd time.
1t was expected the case would come up
for trial this morning when the informa-
ton docket is called but Inspector Cos
grove received notice late yesterday that
it had been postponed until next Tuesday.
The inspector knows nothing of the rea-
son for this action, but is ready 10 present
his side of the case when called.
According to the plumbing ordinance. all
plumbers are required to submit plans Of
proposed work, which are passed upcn by
the inspector No trouble has been eXpe
Tienced from any except McKenna &
Welsh who proceeded with their work
regardless of the ordinance. On learning
of this Inspector Cosgrove wrote the firm
letter asking that plans of certain work
they did recently be submitted to him.
The firm not only failed to submit plans,
but did not answer the letter, and was
placed on the information docket. In
spector Cosgrove feels that the firm is
endeavoring TO thwart him in the perform
ance of his duty. and the only course open
to him, under the circumstances, is to
place it on the docket.
When the plumbing ordinance became
effective, but before the inspector was ap-
pointed a number of plumbers violated
il unintentionaly, thinking it was not
effective until the inspector was appoint
ed and qualified. There was a considera-
Die lot of work to be changed, therefore,
and on receiving notice, all made the
changes except McKenna & Welsh. who
refused to do it. The firm was docketed,
and fined $50. or thirty days, but this seems
10 have been the last of it. 1t is prob
able this case viii be dealt with more Sc
riously. however, as the inspector wants
to know whether he has the right to en-
force an ordinance.

HAULED 100000 TROOPS.
Plant system Has Carried an Army
Since the War Began.

Since the War Began.
A rough estimate has it that the Plant
System has hauled 10000 troops since the
movements began. OF all these, not
single man has been killed on the road
nor has one been injured This is a good
record, and one of which the Plant Sys-
TEN officials and the train men are
proud.
The system has operated its military
trains altogether by the block system
A section must have passed telegraph
station before the next section behind it
can pass the station at which it waited
for news of the first section. In this way
a telegraph station is always kept be-
tween every section, and the chance of ac-
cidents by collision is minimized.
The Plant System starts it's sections Of
military trains out with at least half an
hour intervals between them. By this
means time and distance are made TO cor
respond, and no long stops at any sta
tons while waiting for orders to move
on are necessary.
The Offices of the Plant System are to
be treated to a new coat of yellow paint.
The buildings stand in need of it. Scat
foldings have been erected, and the paint
ers will begin work at once.

William Gaines Arrested by Police

William Gaines Arrested by Police
for Stealing JeweIry.
William Gaines, colored, is a burglar the
police have been after for some time. He
has been committing numerous robberies
around the city, and while there was no
clue as to his identity, the police knew
there was some one at deviltry who would
soon be caught. This unknown bobbed
up yesterday in the person of Gaines, and
with his capture came The story of several
robberies.
The negro was plying his avocation when
arrested. He was working temporarily
at capt p. f. Gleason's house on Aber-
corn street, near the Colonial park. when
it was discovered a robbery had been COM
mitted. Others were hauled up with
Gaines but il was soon found he was the
guilty party. Ee was taken by Police
man Charles Mock, who questioned him
a few moments, after which the negro
made clean confession of the stealing
and turned over the jewelry he had got
ten.
A further investigation revealed that
Gaines was concerned in another robbery.
Some time ago a gold watch chain was
stolen from the residence of Mr.. Wright
Hunter on Duffy street. There were some
laborers working there al the time, and
among them was Gaines. Chief McDermott
knew nothing of him then, however, and
simply advised Mr. Hunter to await devel-
Opments. The result was that Gaines con-
fessed having committed this robbery, and
told where the chain was secreted. 1t was
later recovered at his home, where he had
1t deposited In some old clothes.
Chief McDermott is satisfied Gaines
makes more than his wages everyw here
he works. He seems to have been lifting
things wherever employed, and it is be
lieved a number of complaints now on the
books will be placed al his door.
