TOTAL CUT OF 1920, 900
RESULT OF THE WORK OF THE
FIRST MARIoN COUNTY COUNCIL.
h Total Appropriations Agreed
Upon Amount 10 11,se9.5o-No
New Big Bridges.
Sole Agents for standard Patterns.

The Marion County Council, after a ses-
sion OF nearly three weeks. will finish it's
work this morning by passing the various
ordinances necessary to complete the duties
OF the council. The tax levy ordinance-hx-
ing the rate for general county expenses at
"a cents-has already been agreed on and
yesterday evening late the council finished
the appropriation ordinance: Unless some
changes are made to-day in the estimates
agreed on the total appropriation will
amount to su1 $3.50. This will include the
salaries OF county officers and a fund Of
So. 36s to be expended in maintaining gravel
roads. The III Will also pass the ordi-
nance providing for the refunding of 10000
OF bonds which fall due next June.
Yesterday the council agreed to allow the
recorder $500 to pay for the rebinding OF
old records and 5000 for recopying records.
The recorder had estimated that these two
items would cost the county 5000. 1t has
been finally decided that the county will
not be able to build any large bridges next
year. 1t was estimated that the bridges the
commissioner thought were necessary
would cost in the neighborhood OF $21l, 900.
The elimination CT the bridge expense from
the commissioners estimate will not inter-
fere with the construction of the Central
avenue bridge. The council estimates that IL
has made a cut on the total estimate for
county expenses OF $4,000.

NEW S~TOCKYARDS' CARS
INJUNCTION TO BE ASKED AGAINST
UNION RAILWAY COMPANY.
Refused to Handle n Pittsburg Ship
ment Till Certain Pofnts Were
Settled i'm Court.

Within a day or two the Interstate Stock
yards Company will seek relief from an
embarrassing complication through the
United States Court, by asking that the
Union Railway Company be compelled to
handle cars for it and give 1t service. Back
of this action appears the old stockyards
company, as the original Belt road was
built by those who are interested in the
old stockyards company, with all rights.
privileges and franchises. The Union Rail-
way Company was placed in an embar-
RAISING position when the new stockyards
company made application for service. The
new yards are located on ground through
which there is a switch already laid from
the Belt road. The directors of the Union
Railway Company were divided on the APP
plieation, some opposing 1t and others IA
voring extending the service to the new
company. The legal possibility of suit being
brought to declare the lease of that road
forfeited under the clause relating to rights
and privileges was then pointed out and 1t
was deemed best TO extend the services
only after legal steps had been taken to
protect all parties. 1t was therefore decided
70 refuse the service and let the new COM
pany bring action to compel the Union
Railway Company to serve 1t and this will
be done.
The papers are now being prepared by
Ferdinand Winter. attorney for the new
s~tockyards company, and the suit will be
brought in the United States Court. 1t will
be claimed that service should be ex-
tended to the new company under the in
terstate-commerce law and that the Union
Railway Company is a common carrier and
as such cannot discriminate, as has been
decided in cases brought under this law.
Judge Bake will be asked to grant a per-
emptory writ of mandamuS to compel the
Union Railway Company to deliver cars to
the new s~tockyards and to perpetually en-
join the company from further interference
in the business of the new stockyards. The
opportunity for the suit arose Tuesday. On
that day two carloads of stock were re-
ceived here from P~ittsburg and orders were
Issued to take the stock to the new stock
yards to be fed. The Union Railway Com
pany refused TO transfer the cars. The new
stockyards company will strongly rely on
the fact that the stock to be used in the
test case was shipped from. Pittsburg TO
show that the action can be sustained
Under the law.

A STATE FAIR HONEYMOON.
Groom Slept i'm a Chair i'm Front of
Hotel English.

Hotel English.
The crowded condition of the hotels
Wednesday night made Indianapolis seem a
bleak and dreary place 70 many people,
but to none more than a bright couple who
had just promised to live together for bet
ter or WORSE and their first experience
was one of the worse" They were mar
ried Wednesday afternoon, and with hearts
full of joy and believing they would never
tire of each other they set out for Indianap-
oils on their wedding journey. They were
coming to see the fair, and they came in on
a special train which arrived here about y
o'clock in the evening from the north.
They started out to find a hotel where the
happy groom could write and wife for the
first time, but there were other people in
town ahead of them, and when they gayly
marched up TO the clerk of the first hotel
they entered he sweetly smiled, but re-
GREETED that he had no room" Not dis
couraged by this experience. they went 10
other, but they met the same reply in every
one.
Inc world did not look quite so bright and
the bride commenced TO look as IL she had
no belief in the statement that married lite
is "one grand, sweet song" To tell the
truth. the little bride was getting tired, and
lunch about midnight, and that rested them
some. Then the tramp for a hotel was re-
sumed; The bride grew fearful. They wan
in the morning and the little bride ank
down in one OF the chairs In front of the
Hotel English while the groom made one
last effort. The heart of the clerk was
touched. There was but one unoccupied
room in the house and that was the parlor.
There was not so much as a cot left IN the
house. A happy thought struck him. There
was one cot which was unoccupied, but 1t
had been assigned. AS between a fearful
bride and a man who had not come TO the
was no hesitation, and right after he had
suavely informed two men there was not a
thing in the house he sent a couple of bell
boys scurrrying up for that cot and had
IL taken to the parlor. At last the tired
little bride had a place TO rest and the
groom composed himself in a chair for what
rest he could get.
