all the building trades in Indianapolis
are now affected by strikes. The car
penters. plumbers, hod carriers and

union hod carriers in the city. about
1900 in number, went on strike, and
as Il consequence all the bricklayers
belonging to the local union were
obliged TO quit work. Building is al.

HE WOULD SHUT OUT oLro.
selectman James rnaugurates a Cru
sads Against It.


No less than ridding the city of oleo-
margarine Is the task Select Council
man Edward James, Of tho sixth ward.
has put upon himself. How this is
going to be effected he himself does
not definitely know. but he Is deter
mined that It shall be done II there is
way Of doing It, and he has taken
steps to discover IL there is a way.
His first move was made at Thurs
days meeting of council, when he in
troduced a resolution directing the food
inspector TO report to council the names
Of all parties who have taken out a
government license for the sale of oieo.
This having been accomplished. Mr..
James proposes to follow 1t UP with
legislation to accomplish looking to
the end he has in view.
Mr.. James says he Is prompted In
this crusade solely by his desire to pro-
tect honest merchants. Unscrupulous
dealers, he says, palm off the imita-
ton butter as the pure creamery pro-
duct to the hurt of the honest dealers
who handle the real article.
The federal laws governing the sale
of oleo prescribe that It shall be la
belled "oleomargerine" In letters of q
stipulated size and that every place
where oleo Is sold notice to that ef-
feet shall be posted. Mr.. James. from
cursory examination. is pretty well
satisfied that the federal laws are in
several instances disregarded. 10 say
the least. and he purposes to show this
by the food inspectors report which
his resolution Of last Thursday called
for.
A heavy special tax on the sale OF
the much leglslated against stuff is
one of the things Mr.. James has In
mind. If this can be done. and he be-
lieves it can. an effective cure Of the
evil is obtained. Mr.. James conduct
of this crusade will be watched with
interest.

MEETING ADJOURNED.

After two hours of explanations. ar
guments and general talk. the COM
mittee decided to adjourn sine die. Mr..
Warren said that the only thing Mr..
Mcfarland had accomplished by COM
ing on from New York was the "meet-
ing OF a number of very delightful
gentlemen" 1t is very doubtful as to
whether the present committee will
again consider the question, but the
matter will undoubtedly be taken up
by the new committee after reorgan-
ization, for, as stated before. the via
duct Is still very much alive.
AS an instance of how easy mat
ter it IL for other cities to erect via
ducts. the fact might be mentioned
that Binghamton will soon commence
the election of an immense 100000
structure over the Chenango street
crossing and that the cost will be d.
vided as follows: Lackawanna Rail-
road company, $4,000; Erie Railroad
company. $4,000; state of New York,
$4,000; city Of Binghamton, $4,000.
That's because there's New York
state law which specifies who shall pay
for erecting viaducts that do away
with grade crossing and what propor-
tion of the cost they shall pay.

Jerry Jones injured as Result of
Sudden Quarrel.

At 1890 o'clock Saturday night a
we'll dressed, dapper looking man APP
piled for treatment at the Lackawanna
hospital. His face was bleeding and
was cut by pieces Of glass. several Of
which were in the flesh. He gave his
name as Jerry Jones and said that he
had had a quarrel in Franklin ave-
nue. saloon with a companion. The
fracas was started by some trivial
cause and was concluded by his an
tagonist striking him IN the face with
a wine glass.
DR.. Busch removed the glass from
the face. bandaged the mans wounds
and he was then dismissed from the
hospital.

Anybody who has been laboring
under the impression since February 20
that the viaduct proposition is dead be-
yond recall would have had that i'm
preston speedily removed had he been
present at Saturday afternoons meet
ing of the joint streets and bridges
committee. held in City Solicitor Vos-
burgs office, in pursuance Of the pro-
visions Of Joint resolution of coun-
ellis lately passed. Viaduct. viaduct,
viaduct was all that was talked for
about two consecutive hours. There
was nothing but talk, however. No ac-
ton was taken.
The Joint resolution referred TO above
was introduced by Mr.. Godshall and
provides that the matter of a viaduct
be left to the joint streets and bridges
committee with instructions that that
body have plans and specifications pre-
pared for the structure; that they pre-
pare an accurate estimate of it's cost,
secure options on all property to be
condemned, if any. and present this
Information, together with a new via
duct ordinance, to councils.
Saturdays meeting was held for the
ostensible purpose of comforting with
Chief Engineer Mcfarland, Of the
Lackawanna company, with view of
hearing that gentlemans ideas on the
question and also to decide upon loca
tion for the viaduct. Present at the
meeting. in addition to Mr.. Mcfarland,
were the following: Major Everett
Warren, representing the company's S
interests; General Manager Silliman,
of the Scranton Railway company;
City Solicitor A. a. Vosburg, City En-
gneer Joseph r. Phillips, Street Com
missioner Roland Thomas and Coun-
cilmen George Sanderson. ]. A. Lans-
ing, J. ]. Schneider, L. NJ. Tewkesbury.

MIR. M'FARLAND'S PLAN.

Mr. Mcfarland presented plan
which he thought was the most suit
able of any and the cheapest for the
city. This provided for the construc-
ton of a viaduct seventy feet wide
from the centre of the street south,
thus requiring the condemnation Of
only thirty feet of private property, as
the street at this point is sixty feet
wide and the sidewalk ten feet Mr..
Warren thought that If such viaduct
was erected the people on the north
side of the street could claim no dam
ages.
Mr.. VOsburg was not SO sure on this
point and said that as the crossing
would be closed they might claim DAM
ages. and referred to the Robinson
street cases, where the street was only
partly closed at one end, yet Judge
Edwards allowed the damage cases to
go to the jury without legally settling
this point, showing that the law was
not clear on it.
Mr.. Warren suggested that the best
plan to pursue would be for the COM
mittee to decide upon width and
location for the viaduct: then let the
city engineer, acting in conjunction
with the engineers of the railroad and
street railway companies, draw up a
set Of plans and present them to the
new streets and bridges committee
with a statement from the officials OF
both companies showing how much
each would contribute. The commit
tee could then secure options on prop
erty to be condemned and an estimate
of the damages to be incurred, and
guided by this information draw up a
suitable ordinance.
COULD NOT AGREE ON PLAN.
This plan seemed to be accepta BILE to
all present, but they couldn't agree on
a location. Some wanted it covering
the entire street; some wanted it to be
constructed from the centre of the
street south and some from the curb
line south. Mr.. Schneider presented a
beautiful scheme by which he pro.
posed that the Lackawanna company
buy up all the property bounded by
West Linden street, their present
tracks, Nealis court and Ninth street
for extra yard room. A bridge could
then be erected over the tracks and
the problem solved. This looked very
nice, but Mr.. Mcfarland dissipated it
in a moment by saying that the curve
into the stone bridge would be entirely
too sharp to be used and that besides
it would cost the company something
like 100000.
Though the committee could not
agree upon a site, there was one thing
they did agree on and that was that
the next viaduct ordinance should pro-
vide explicitly and plainly that the
crossing be closed. 1t was also thought
that the next ordinance prepared
should state distinctly where the struc-
ture was to be built. as the phrase ION
the south side of the street" was con-
sdered too vague. A number of those
present We're inclined to think that on
account of these two omissions the last
ordinance was defeat tied. Some one else
suggested that 1t was lost because 1t
was not voted upon at a special elec-
tion, while Mr.. Calpin who was pres
ent, made bold enough to say that II
was defeated because the two COM
panies didn't offer to contribute enough
towards it's construction.
