GOVERNOR AS ARBITER.
He Settles n Question Between the
Custodian and GeoIogist.

friendly point of dispute between Cap
itol Custodian Krietenstein and State Geol-
ogist Blatchley was settled by Governor
Durbin Yesterday afternoon. The dispute
arose over the payment OF the salary Of
Mr.. Pfrimmer. who was recently appointed
by Mr.. Blatchley as the Waterman or jani-
tor for the state museum. Mr.. Pfrimmer
succeeded Homer Miller. who was appoint
ed four years ago by Custodian Vest at the
request of Governor Mount. At that time
Mr. Blatchley was not greatly pleased over
the provision of the law allowing one OF his
assistants to be chosen by another official.
He presented the matter to the ways and
means committee of the House OF Repre-
sentatives at the last session Of the Legis-
lature arguing that inasmuch he is re-
sponsible on his bond for the property in
the museum. he ought to have the appoint
ing of the Waterman for the place.
The committee acquiesced In this view Of
the matter and inserted clause in the gen
eral appropriation bill allowing the geolo-
gist TO name the Waterman for the mu-
scum. the salary 10 be paid out OF the GUS
todian's fund. Custodian krietenstein
raised the point that his fund for paying
salaries OF assistants Is not large enough
this fiscal year 10 provide for the salary OF
Mr.. Blatchley's Waterman. because Gus
todan Vest. short time before he went
out of office, added a janitor 10 the pay
roll. making 1t, with the museum watch
man included. larger by one man than il
mad ever been before. Governor Durbin
suggested that the matter be compromised
by the custodian and the geologist each
paying half of Mr.. Pfrimmers salary out
of their office funds until the LIST OF Novem-
Der, at which time the new appropriation
will become available. The matter was set
tied in this way. The understanding Is that
the new Waterman for the state museum
will receive his entire salary from the Gus
todian's fund after Nov. l.

THE COMING STATE FAIR.
Secretary Downing Says 1t Will BE
Bigger and Better Than Ever.

1--WE are going TO have the biggest and
best State Fair this year that the Indiana
State Board Of Agriculture has ever given"
said Secretary Charles Downing last night.
1.-The reason 1 have for thinking this is
that the prize list and the speed depart
ment are much more attractive this year
than they have ever been before in the his
tory of the State Fair. Another thing. we
are going to have a night attraction at the
coming fair, and it will be of the best that
can be secured. feel confident that 1t will
Draw an even larger crowd than Sousa' S
band drew two years ago. Then the fact
that the Sovereign Grand Lodge of Odd
Fellows will be in session here that week
will bring more Indiana people to the cap
ital than were ever here before, in my
Judgment not excepting the week or the
Grand Army Encampment in 1893. The off,
GERS of the Grand Lodge are making
strenuous efforts to have this years meet
ing Of the Sovereign Grand Lodge outshine
all similar meetings. Another fact to be
considered is that farmers and people gem
orally are In better shape financially than
they have been for many years, and feel
like spending some of the money they have
accumulated in the last four or Ave years.
The military branch, or cantons of the
Odd Fellows will encamp the fair
grounds. and all of their prize drills will be
given in front of the grand stand. This
ought to add very materially to the crowds
ir attendance at the fair.
Mr. Downing also said that the board has
decided upon an innovation at this year s
fair that WILL ii is believed, be received
with favor by the public. The space that
has heretofore been occupied by exhibits

THE TENTH POLICE PRECINCT.
Major Sylvester Busy Preparing
Plans for the Proposed District


Major Sylvester is busy with plans for
the new Tenth police precinct, provided
for in the reorganization law passed by
the last Congress. The Tenth precinct
station is located on Whitney Avenue
near Seventh Street extended, and is al
ready being prepared for occupancy The
exact number Of men to compose the com
mand for the precinct has yet to be de-
termined.
1t is "A complicated task to set the ma
chinery of the new precinct in working
order. and The energies of the Superin-
tendeHt OF Police are being directed to-
ward accomplishing the work. The pres
ent end of the police telegraph system is
focused in the Eighth precinct station. on
Street northwest, and wires will have
to be readjusted TO include the new sta
tion. a large number of patrol boxes
have yet to be provided, and other ar
rGngementS made The building will soon
he in order. but much work in the ma
ture Of alarm and telegraph service is
still to be done.
1t is the intention of Major Sylvester to
provide additional policemen for the Fifth
and the seventh precincts, because the
force now detailed at those stations is
said to be inadequate. In the new pre-
cinct there are to be two mounted ser
geants. Their selection has not yet been
made. While nothing positive is known
regarding transfers and changes from
other precincts. it is probable all will be
called on TO furnish their quota Of men
tor the new precinct
The new law provides for an additional
man at each station during the twenty
four hours to be known as doorman, and
TO have charge OF all prisoners in Gus
tody. This viii relieve the stationkeeper
to a great extent and will ensure the safe
keeping of prisoners while confined at the
stations
