MEDICAL BOARDS VERDICT.
A Marion College That VIII Not He
RecOgnixed-The OsteOpaths.

The State Medical Board began a meeting
yesterday which will continue to-day and
possibly tomorrow. This meeting marks
the taking effect of the amendments to the
medical law Of the State made by the last
Legislature. From this time forward a
physician may obtain certificate in Indi-
ana only on diploma acceptable to the
board or on a successful examination. The
fee, also, is increased from Sc to $40.
Dr. Snodgrass. dean of the Curtis Physio-
Medical College, of Marion, was present to
hear the verdict of the board with regard
to his school. The verdict was the same as
last year-the school will not be recognized.
The members of the board say the school
entirely lacks proper equipment. 1t has
not u sufficient staff of professors, it is said.
and the students have no opportunity to
gain practical knowledge either in hospital
work, at clinics or in the dissecting room.
The board adopted a resolution that dip
Tomas from schools outside the United
States will not be recognized Foreign in
situations, even in Canada, do not recognize
diplomas from the medical colleges OF the
United States.
Merrill Moores, deputy attorney general,
will confer with the board to-day as to the
measures TO be taken with regard to the
osteopaths Suits have already been
brought against several osteopaths. The
complaint against physicians who are grad
yates of reputable medical colleges, and
have taken up osteopathy in preference to
medicine, but they are determined to oppose
men who practice osteopathy and know
nothing more about the art of healing.

WAGES OF MINERS,
Labor Commissioner Holds the Scale
Contract Must Prevail.

The state labor commissioners have re-
ceived many petitions from coal miners for
weekly payment of wages, but the labor
commissioners are powerless to take any
action. When the mining scale was signed
on March 81, specifying the scale for the
next year, a clause was inserted by which
wages were to be paid twice a month, on
the 10th and 18th of each month. This con-
tract having been entered into and signed
before the laws were promulgated, the
weekly payment law does not affect the
erless to do anything as that board does
not have the right to abrogate or vitiate
any contract entered into before the law
went into effect.
The miners in the vicinity of Brazil are
those who are most clamorous. They have
also written to Inspector McAbee and asked
him TO institute legal proceedings TO COM
pei the operators TO pay wages weekly, but
Mr.. McAbee declined to take the action en-
missioners. This decision Of Mr.. McAbee
does not meet the approval of the
miners and they have written to Governor
Mount protesting against the failure of the
ton. The State officials will take no ac-
ton.
A certificate was recently sent out to one
manufacturing concern authorizing the pay
ment OF wages bi-weekly and il was re-
turned to the commissioners by the manu-
been misunderstood, as he desired permits
sion to pay his men every two weeks, and
requesting that the wording be changed SO
as to read "bi-monthly." The commission

''bi-monthly."

er is valued at too high a figure. We are
now engaged in corresponding with those
who have offered their property, as well as
with those who own property in the square
who did not offer their holding for sale The
government will, undoubtedly, finally be
obliged to purchase the University Park
site, and those who do not offer at a reas-
enable sum will be obliged to relinquish
their property through condemnation pro-
ceedings. and by this means eventually may
not secure even a fair market figure for
their realty"

government must condemn the land.

IRON MOLDERS' RESOLUTIONS
The Convention Has Not Yet Taken
Any Action.

The iron holders convention spent most
of yesterday in executive session, and many
resolutions and propositions to change laws
of the organization were introduced. While
there is little OF general interest in the pro-
ceedings of the convention, there is a mass
of minor business to be done. and it is likely
the sessions will continue for two weeks
The wages of the members of the affiliated
molding organizations are set by confer
ences between the organizations and COM
mttees of the employers. which occur in
April Of each year.
One resolution introduced yesterday was
that the earnings Of piece workers should be
limited to $3.50 a day. This proposition has
its earnest enemies as well as it's enthusi-
astic friends. and it will probably be warm
ly debated. Another resolution presented
was to establish national molders' home.
An effort will be made to increase the death
and sickness benefits in proportion to the
length of time the member has been in good
standing. AT present these benefits lre SlO0

weeks during sickness. Committees to take
these matters in hand have not yet been APP
pointed.
