out last night to celebrate his escape
from the bullets that his wife fired at

barred door. He made a disturbance
and a few threats, but Mrs. Dixon was
ready for him and sent bullet through
the door. James fed and landed in the
arms of a policeman, who took him to
the county jail for disturbance He will

PNEUMATIC JAIL is INVENTED.
Amy Attempt to Cut a Way Out Warns
the Authorities at Once.


From the Philadelphia Record.
A pneumatic safety Jail is the name
of recent novel application of COM
pressed air which has been developed
and is about to be placed on the mar
ket. The walls Of the vaults or cells
are steel tubes, spaced about four and
one-half inches apart. and the floor
and ceiling of double steel plates with
an air space between. These tubes and
air spaces are all in communication and
are kept filled with compressed ar.
In case the bars are cut in an attempt
to escape, the reduction in the air pres
sure a once sounds an automatic
alarm at any desired point. The door
is also built up with air tubes. and
the lock is also protected by hollow
hinged bar swinging across its face
This must be removed before the lock
can be gotten at. The tubes contain
in their interior octagonal bars about
seven-eighths of an inch in diameter
of hardened tool steel. These are piv-
oted at the ends and readily turn, so
that even if the air pressure were re-
moved the cell would be as difficult to
escape from as any other now on the
market.

washing out of the Maclay bridge. 1t
is true the commissioners have not met

Superior Bench Fakes Up the Howard

Light and Power Company, of Fort Wayne.
and r.. s. Taylor and H.. j. Miller. as adj
miristrators of the estate OF r. II. McDon-
aid. They state that Mcdonald executed to
them his note for s123, 161. SO. with his stock
In the Jenney Company as security. The
company was capitalized at 1000 and they
state Mcdonald held 653 shares Of par value
of $50. 80. The company. they state. was in
solvent and owed 1853. 500. of which SCI, 500
bears s per cent. interest and sos, 600 bears
z per cent.
In 1895 the company issued bonds in the
sum OF 500, 600 to refund this indebtedness,
but the bonds have not been sold and are
still in the hands of the trustee. The petit
ton charges that, on Nov. II, when McDon-
aid was in great and pressing need of mon
ey, land with fraudulent intent and pur-
pose 10 depreciate the value Of the pledged
stock" Mcdonald and three directors de-
clared a dividend of 50 Per cent. on the

plainants claim that the number Of directors
of the company Is eleven and hence this ac-
ton by four of them is illegal. They state
that the additional stock decreased the val
ue OF the stock they held as security SIC, $50.
They claim Mcdonald did not turn over
their pro rata share of the dividend and
they ask that the dividend be declared to
have been illegally made. that they receive
their pro rata share and that the admin

the stock so issued.

THE HOWARDs' ACCOUNT.
Superior Bench WithhOIds Its Deci-
sion a Few Days.

The three Superior Court judges met in
Room l at 9 o'clock yesterday morning. pre-
pared to rule on the demurrer in the suit OF
Sarah l.. Howard against the State. Mrs.
Howard, as administrators of her husbands
estate. brought suit on a claim against the
State for S00.C0. Her husband was one of
the contractors and she alleges that he lost
on his contract because Of numerous changes
made in the original plans Attorney Gen.
eral Ketcham filed a demurrer TO the COM
plant and ii was argued several months ago
before the fun bench OF the Superior Court.
The judges had announced that they would
rule on the question yesterday morning and
at the appointed hour, indicated that they
would override the demurrer. Attorney
General Taylor was present and suggested
that the court had failed to consider the
point raised by Attorney General Keteham,
In which he held that part of the action was
barred by the statute OF limitation. Judge
McMaster and Judge Carter, who had lis
tened To the argument on demurrer, did not
recall that Mr.. Ketcham had touched on this
point. Attorney General Taylor pointed
out that the action brought by Mrs. Howard
was a suit on account and no claim could
be made after six years had passed. II Mrs.
Howard was suing on a contract. then she
could bring her action any time within ff-
teen years from the time the alleged indebt-
edness accrued. After hearing the attorney
general. the court decided to withhold it's de-
clsion until the matter could be further con-
sIdered.

TAXES ON THE NEWS.
Receivers Suit to EnjOin Collection
on Increased Valuation.

Judge McMaster, of the Superior Court,
yesterday made an order authorizing the re-
ceiver of the Indianapolis News to pay into
the county treasury the taxes on $4,000 and
to bring a suit to enjoin the treasurer from
collecting taxes on $4,000 the amount
added to the alleged value of the News plant
by the State Board of Tax Commissioners
at Its sitting last summer. Receiver Brown
paid the taxes as ordered and Immediately
filed the injunction suit.
TIL complaint was prepared by Duncan,
Smith & Hornbrook. The receiver. in bring
ing this suit, represents all the parties to
the action now pending for a dissolution Of
partnership. Last summer the County
Board disqualification fixed the value of the
property of the News, aside from its build
ings, at $4,000. An appeal was at once
made from the county boards action to the
State Tax Commission. the appeal being
filed by Theodore +. Harrison, who claimed
The complaint filed by the receiver AYERS
that Harrison was a stranger TO the News
management and had no knowledge of the
value of it's plant. 1t is asserted that Har-
rison then failed to appear before the state
board, but w. j. Richards, business man
ager of the News. went before the board
and gave testimony as to the full value of
the property. There was no evidence. it is
averred, to show that the value fixed by the
county board was not the full value. 1t Is
charged that the state board arbitrarily
and tyrannically, and without regard to the
actual value of the property" added $4,000
to the amount fixed by the county board,
increasing the alleged total value 10 100000.
1t is averred that Major Richards asked
the state board to give him a list of the
items OF property on which the increased
valuation was placed, and was told that
the board was not called on to give an ac-
count OF it's actions. The receiver AYERS
that the board evidently meant to tax the
good will" of the paper. knowing that the
business was prosperous and the income
large. While admitting that the business
of the News Is prosperous and from IL is
realized u large income, the receiver asserts
that this is not due to the use of any par
ticular piece Of property owned by the firm,
but that 1t is the result of years of labor
and the expenditure of a large amount Of
money in effecting and maintaining an or
ganization of intelligent. capable and expe-
rienced editorial writers and business man
ayers and agents." Also, in acquiring and
maintaining q reputation for integrity and
capacity. The success of the paper, IL is
averred, depends on the organization of its
editorial and reportorial forces and its BUSH
ness management.
AS to the Associated Press franchise, II Is
averred that this is not taxable, since IL is
securing telegraph news by cooperation as
much as possible. The Associated Press
franchise, IL is claimed, Is a source of eX-
pense, not of income, and there is no profit
attaching to il. The complaint AYERS that
only In one State has there been an attempt
to tax the Associated Press franchise. and
this failed.
