TROUBLE ON THE CAR LINES.
Terre Haute Street-Railway Men Have
Their Demands Refused.

Special TO the Indianapolis Journal.
TERRE HAUTE, Ind, Oct. S.-This
morning three organizations of employees
of the Street-railway Company made de-
mands on the management for new labor
conditions and for higher wages. For a
long time the employees of the company
which also has the only electric-lighting
plant in the city, have been complaining of
their treatment. Either the two systems
were doing too much business or the man.
agement has been faulty, but there has
been more or less confusion and large
number of accidents. The service. both of
the car system and the lighting system,
has been very bad, and constant complaint
is going up by the public. The firemen at
the power house first prepared their griev-
ances, and were about to present them
when the electrical workers said they, too
wanted to present grievances Then the
motormen and conductors asked both the
other organizations to wait until they could
formulate demands The result was that
ing.
The company officials held conference
extending over the greater part OF the aft
ernoon and evening, and tonight the rep
resentatives of the four classes of employees
were informed that their demands could
not be complied with. The employees COM
mittee then reported to the Central Labor
Union, and was in session there until 1920
After adjournment no information was fur
nished further than that no strike would
be declared tonight.

BEAUTIFUL DECORATIONS.
Merchants of indianapolis Have Cow
cred Themselves with Glory.

The decorations in the streets and on
the business blocks In the central por-
ton of indianapolis have never been ex-
ceeded in beauty and richness in the en-
tire history of the city. On Washington
street in the large stretch between East
and West streets the merchants have been
at extraordinary pains to adorn not only
their places of business but the sidewalks
in 'front.' and many of those having build
ings facing each other on opposite sides of
the street have extended the scheme of
decoration so as to include beautiful arches
spanning the broad thoroughfare.
Handsome decorations are also to
be found on streets running north
and south, opening into Washing
ton street-being perhaps more ex-
tensive and richer on South Meridian
street. The great business blocks on both
sides of that street from Washington street
to the railroad tracks in many in
stances almost buried beneath masses of
bunting, showing the official colors of the
carnival-red and yellow. The national
flag also plays a prominent part in the
scheme of decoration Of business houses as
well in the immediate neighborhood of
the Magic Circle. Visitors TO the city have
been greatly struck with the enterprise
and spirit of local pride displayed by the
merchants and manufacturers of Indiana's
capital in effort TO make the city In
general harmonic with the gorgeous dis
plays in the vicinity of the monument.

Max Hyman, chairman of the committee

that has given carnival. He said that IL
people will wait until they see the interior

Der OF these Is fixed at ffty-eight, and the
embems TO be worn by members of the en-
tertainment committee have been limited
to fifty. Treasurer Scholz reported that the
subscription fund TO the carnival has
reached the sum of 81. 200. and that of this
amount $4,000 has actually been collected.

viding for an official request to be directed
by the executive committee of the carnival

city to close Friday throughout the entire
day In order to give everybody chance TO
see and take part in the merchants and in

FOR "sHOvING THE QUEER"
Second Man Under Arrest at South
Bend-COins Poorly Made.

Special to the Indianapolis Journal
ELKHART, Ind, Oct. S.-The man who
was arrested here Saturday night after
having passed two bogus s. gold pieces and
having attempted to pass others at various
stores, where the counterfeit was de-
tected. proved to be Wesley Hummer ten
ant of farm five miles southwest OF South
Bend, in st. Joseph county. Superintendent
Braden, of Elkhart, and Chief Turnock. of
South Bend, went to that neighborhood
and arrested Cary Young, who attempted
the same trick here Saturday night, but
was unsuccessful. Young broke from the
business man who tried to hold him, and
escaped, but his capture Sunday, at his
home, was easy. Nothing of incriminat-
ing nature was found on his person or
premises.
AT Runners home nothing was found,
but Mrs. Hummer, who appeared to be
much cast down by the arrest of her hus-
band, surrendered five bogus silver dollars
which she knew he had left in the house.
Hummer had declared tsAt his wife was
the only person who knew he had spurious
money, and she had begged him to throw 1t
away. He said he bought the coins from
man he did not know, and whom he met
near South Bend for the transaction. The
counterfeit is very poorly done, the coins
being made of white metal in rough dies
or molds, and coated with bronze. The
bronze wore off on the paper in which they
were wrapped.

PORTLAND, Ind, Oct. S-After making
a savage attack on his father this morn
ing, David Wesley Wilhelm, long afflicted
with attacks of madness, stepped into an
adjoining room, took a razor from the
clock shelf and almost cut his head from
his body. Before he fell he laid the reeking
razor on table, the imprint of his bloody
hand being left there. The father was
twice knocked down by the piece of iron
which the boy had in his hand, but suffered
no great injury. Young Wilhelm was twen-
ty-four years old. When he arose the
family knew from his appearance that one
of his periodical attacks was at hand. He
said he would go out and milk the cows,
but his father told him not to, as he was
feeling unwell and had better stay In the
house. This provoked the blows. and then
the young man took his own life.
