A Surprise In Store.

Lansing, Mich, T. eb. 6.-There Is a
surprise stored away in the senate for
the members of the supreme court. 1t
will be sprung at the senate session
this afternoon, when the substitute
bill to increase the membership of the
supreme court from five TO seven, with
the length of term remaining 10 years,
as at present, comes up for considera-
ton. One of the senators will then
offer an amendment providing that the
salary of each of the seven members
present and to be of the court, shall
be reduced from 81 900 a year to So
600. In this way the aggregate salar-
les of the members of the enlarged
court would be the same as that of
the five judges of the court as now
constituted. The advocates of this new
plan say that if the present supreme
court justices really want and need
the proposed relief in the way of two
additional associates to help them do
the work, they will not object to ST.
900 cut in their salaries to accomplish
the desired result.
The friends of the substitute bill in
tended to bring it up in the senate
Tuesday, but they counted noses and
found they would not be able to get
the proposed measure through.

STATED SALARIES.
Supervisors Favor Them Instead Of
Fees for County Officers.

Lansing, Mich, Feb. 6.-John w.
Ewing, of Grand Ledge, Is presiding at
the biennial meeting of the State Su-
pervisors' association, which will con-
tinue it's sessions through Thursday
About 40 counties are represented.
Tuesdays session was largely devoted
TO the presentation of credentials and
other preliminary business. An invi
tation was extended 10 Gov. Bliss,
Atty. Gen. Oren and Rep. Hemans, of
lngham county, to address the assCcia-
tion to-day on the subject OF taxation
Tuesday evening the association
adopted resolutions indorsing the Wa
terbury bill. substituting graded salar-
les for fees as compensation for coun-
ty officers, and asking for the repeal
of the law which. permits highway
commissioners to purchase road ma
chinery. leaving these purchases to
be made by the full township board.
There is a strong sentiment among
the delegates in favor of Atty. Gen
Oren's idea of separating state and
municipal taxes by having the state
supported by revenue from specific
taxes leaving all direct taxes to be
levied for municipal purposes only A
majority OF the delegates appear to be
opposed to the provision of the tax
commission law which allows no ap-
peal from the commission action In
fixing assessments.

AN ENGINE
DERAILED
TWO STREET CARS WRECKED BY
COLLISION,
WHICH OCCURRED AT AC. G. G. T
CROSSING IN DETROIT.
FORTUNATELY NO ONE INJURED
BY THE ACCIDENT.

Detroit, Mich, Feb. 5.-Passenger
train No. IL of me Detroit, Grand Ha-
ven q Milwaukee railway crashed into
two empty cars of the Detroit railway
line at the Forest avenue crossing on
Dequindre street about 5:45 O'Clock
yesterday afternoon. No one was in
jured, but the street cars were almost
totally wrecked and engine No. 1913 or
the G. & G.. Il. II. r., which was draw
ing the train, was derailed and badly
smashed. The responsibility for the
smashup seems to rest equally upon
the employees of both companies, ac-
cording TO The stories of the specta-
tors.
Four empty cars of the Detroit Rail
way line were being transferred from
the barns on Warren avenue west TO
the repair shops on Jefferson avenue.
They were manned by crew from
the repair shops, comprising Frank A.
Sturm of $40 Thirteenth street, a man
named Bush and motorman whose
identity was not learned. Sturm was
running the motor on the head car
and Bush was similarly engaged on
the second car. The extra motorman
for the time being was conductor.
There is a derailing switch at the
crossing, and according to the stories
of the spectators, me street cars were
stopped west of the railway tracks
while one of the motormen ran ahead
and turned the lever to close the
switch. The crossing is protected by
gates, but these for some reason had
not been lowered, although the watch
man, James Gill, must have known
that the regular outbound train TO
Grand Rapids, which leaves the Brush
street depot at 4:05 o'clock standard
time, was due at the crossing.
The first two street cars crossed the
track in safety, but the engine caught
the third near the rear truck, 1t was
thrown across the street, turned end
for end and after breaking down the
safety gate on the northeast corner or
the crossing, was jamhned in between
"a telephone pole and a frame house in
a space but little wider than the width
of the car. The house and the tele-
! phone pole were unharmed. The rear
platform and whole side of the car
| were torn away, leaving it total
wreck. The coupling connecting the
third and fourth cars was broken and
the fourth car, without being over
turned, was thrown around crossways
! of the avenue.
The engine was derailed, lost its
headlight and pilot and was otherwise
damaged. Another engine was sent
out as soon as word OF the disaster
reached the company's offices, and the
crew OF the disabled engine, compris-
ing Engineer Harry Rice and Fireman
Burt Jones, took the passenger train
on to Grand Rapids.
A switch, engine and crew OF men
worked three or four. hours with the
derailed engine before it could be got
ten back on the rails. Meantime the
street car company's wrecking outfit
was employed in removing the shat
| tered cars.

Fire Runs Convicted.

Port Huron, Mich, Feb. Crank
Barron and Tommy Turner were con-
victed in the circuit court Tuesday
afternoon OF setting fire to the San
born house on Howard street. This
makes five of the gang of youthful in
cendaries who are in the tolls. The
jury returned verdict of guilty in
about an hour. The parents of the
boys are making strenuous efforts to
have the lads released on suspended
sentence and the action of the court.
The boys awaiting sentence are Rich
ard Kerwin, Jr., a son OF Policeman
Kerwin; Tommy Turner, Percy Bur-
CESS. Frank Barron and Yes Robinson.
Four fires were traced TO the boys, and
the police think that the numerous
fires which occurred in packing boxes
in the rear of stores can be traced to
them.
