Thousands of men and women are af-

The failure of salves and ontments to

Surgical operations are dangerous to life
and moreover not often entirely successful
and at this time are no longer used by the
best physicians or recommended by them.

Stephen Tucker eighty-four years old. one

ship, brought suit in the Superior Court
yesterday for divorce from Mary Tucker.
The latter is seventy-two years of age. They
were married in November, 1885, and lived
together until last fall. Mrs. Tucker is the
plaintiffs second wife. He has four daugh-
ters grown and all are married. Several
months ago Mrs. Tucker brought $4,000
damage suit against her husbands children.
She claimed they had alienated the affec-
tons of Stephen Tucker and had taken him
away from her. This suit is still pending in
the Superior Court.
Until the separation last fall Stephen
Tucker had resided for sixty-four years on
the farm which he owns. The Tucker fam

ship. In his complaint for divorce Mr..
Tucker charges that his aged wife was
cross to him and that he could not live
peaceably with her. He says she conceived
a violent dislike for his daughters and would
not allow them TO come to the farm to visit
him.
After Mrs. Tucker had brought a damage
suit against her husbands children she filed
another suit to enjoin them from removing
grain from their fathers farm. This suit
was tried in the Superior Court and old Mr..
Tucker was there as witness. At that
time he said his wife. about four years ago,
took the reins of government in her own
hands. He declared that i'm the last four
years he had only had about 81 I'm money
that he kept for any length Of time. The
old gentleman said he once had $15 in cash,
but he was not allowed TO keep IL. His
wife, after making vain attempts to get
possession of the money, finally resorted to
a very crafty scheme. He said that one day
she called out 10 him: ''Od man, / am go
ing to do the washing and 1 want you TO
change shirts" Mr.. Tucker related that he
did as his wife bid him and that while in
the act of removing the shirt and at
moment when the garment was directly
over his head and his hands were tied"
his wife succeeded in relieving him of his
fifteen dollars.

Contrary TO the general expectation. SUI
perintendent Power states that the spring

has been reached that IL will be imprac-

water for the reason that not only is the
river much below the level of the proposed

water in the lakes would vary with the

LIMITED in ITS EFFECT
ANTITRUST LAW SAID TO APPLY
ONLY IN CERTAIN CASES.
An Unofficial Opinion by Attorney
General GriYgs Which Is of
Great Interest.

A special dispatch. last evening. conveyed
the information that Attorney General
Griggs I'm a lette- to a citizen of New Jer-
sey, had expressed ar. unofficial opinion that
the Sherman ag thrust law is not appli-
cable to the regulation of trusts except in
interstate relations. In his letter the attor-
ney general seems of the opinion that the
Nation cannot suppress. control or nullify
trusts and monopolies in the various States
but that each State must do the work for
itself.
The views aroused much interest here.
particularly as such an opinion might affect
Indiana. On this point Governor Mount last
evening, said: This opinion is according to
the general impression of the provisions of
the Sherman act and the application of
those provisions. 1t is a well-established
rule that each State legslates for that
which is entirely within its borders and that
the general government legislates for that
which affects the different States. From the
brief synopsis IL is difficult 10 give an in
telligent opinion. 1t all depends on the scope
of the words interstate relations If the
attorney general holds that the federal gov
eminent cannot legislatc against trusts that
extend from State to State. the Standard
Oil Company, for example, it is great vic
tory for the trusts. If the holding is that
the government regulate such trusts
and that the States can take action against
them suppress them within the borders
of the State, it is good law. The Interstate
commerce legislation by the general govern
ment still leaves TO the State the right to
legislate regarding commerce within the
State only. Indiana is practically without an
antitrust law, the on the statutes
is not effective and the attorney general
tells me that it is not stringent enough. 1t
would be almost impossible 10 take any ac-
ton under it, i am told"
Attorney General Taylor said: Il do not
care to express an opinion now. Trusts have
been uniformly held to be contrary TO pub
lie policy and State has the right to legis-
late on anything which is contrary to pub
lie policy. AS 10 just how effective the anti
trust law which now have is, am not
prepared to say. AS soon as i get the ac-
cumulated business off my hands, which re-
suited from the session of the Legislature,
/ am going 10 take up the question of trusts
and see what be done under that law.

LITTLE DEPOT ACCIDENT.


An accident at the Little Depot" cross
ing on Massachusetts avenue last evening
fortunately resulted in no injuries or fatali-
ties. About $50 o'clock North Indianap-
oils and East Tenth-street car, in charge
of Conductor Scott and Motorman Stevens,
was into by string of cars on the
Monon while crossing the tracks. There
were twelve passengers in the car, and
through timely warning all succeeded in get
ting out of the car before IL was struck.
From all that could be learned the accident
was the result of misunderstanding of sig
nails. Conductor Scott says that when they
came to the tracks he got out to that
the line was clear. A string OF cars which
were being switched were cut to clear the
crossing. and when he came up the brake
man gave him signal to come ahead. lie
then signaled the mOtorman. who brought
the street car UP to the railway, when IL
discovered that the gap was closing
up. The cars came back so slowly that the
street car was not damaged beng simply
showed from the rails and turned half
around. In explaining his action in backing
up the engineer stated he understood the
signal given to the Street-car conductor as
"back-up' signal for himself.
