Planted a Graveyard TO Head on n

From the indianapolis Journal
fact leaked out Monday which indi-
Gates the bearing some of the seemingly
harmless bills passed by a general as
sembly have on large interests. One Of
these bills, which passed at the last ses-
sion without any discussion. prohibited
the building of any railway lines through
any graveyard. Little was known of its
purposes, but at that time of the session
bills for the pensioning of civil war vel
Grams and their widows and such other
benevolent measures were being passed
more or less regularly along with pafri-
Otto resolutions, and what little was said
about the bin was thrown out in such a
way as to appeal to the sentiment of the
solons. In an effort to prevent the desc
Grafton of graves, however, the legislators
took a step, the Importance of which thew
never realized, and the facts alleged IN
the case follow: Ever since the Chicago
and West Michigan Railway was built it's
western terminal was at New Buffalo,
where it formed junction with the Mich
igan Central, over the tracks of which il
entered Chicago. AS the business of the
road developed, 1t was found that the
trackage charges made inroads into The
income of the company to the point where
il was deemed desirable to do, away with
them. Accordingly the heads of the road
decided TO bui1d their own line into Chi
cago, and accordingly, through their
agents began to purchase rights of way
wherever desired. Most of the proposed
route ran through the sand dunes along
the upper end of Lake and Porter coun-
ties and here the Knickerbocker Ice Com
pany owns vast tracts of land, from which
it takes sand for its ice houses and for
building purposes In Chicago The new
route of the railway will cut through their
most valuable sand deposits, and the
Knlckerbocker company steadfastly re-
fused to sell.
Only a few weeks before The opening of
the legislature the railway company an
nounced that il proposed to bring con-
demnation proceedings 10 secure possess
sion of the land, and then was Matched
the bill which has rendered Il impossible
for the railway TO complete its line First
of all, the company secured a collection
of what IL known IN medical colleges as
"stiffs," 10 the number of forty or fifty,
and these were buried at Intervals, prop
erly marked. all over the tract The next
step taken was to prepare the graveyard
bill, which was introduced by Representa-
five Patterson, who was innocent of the
motives back OF IL, and passed without
discussion by both branches of the gen
erai assembly, under the suppositlon on
part OF The members that Il was designed
10 thwart the attempt of some cold blood
