THOSE POLES
For the Municipal Electric
plant-ReSult of an
Investigation.

The PALLADIUM received a pleasant
call this morning from two members
of the cammittee on the municipal
tion which was called to the condi-
tion of the poles being used. in last
night S edition. These gentlemen
stated that they considered the poles
good, the material used in painting
them good, and had Looked into il
thoroughly; and that where bad poles
we're used the company would re-
move them.
In order to more Thoroughly inves-
tigate trip was taken this morning
by a representative of this paper to
look at the poles again. What he
saw others can see and no argu-
ment is needed about the contract for
these poles no information can be
had at the usual channels. The city
civil engineer knows nothing Of it.
The city clerk, where the contract
would naturally be, has not got it
now, never has had it, never has
seen it. So the only thing the re-
porter could get at was the contract
with the Light, Heat Il Power COM
pany. AS this plant is to be superior
to theirs nothing would be expected
to be inferior to what they were re-
quired to supply. That ordnance
requires TIE poles TO be of live white
cedar, straight, shaved, and not less
than o inches IN diameter at the top,
3S feet high, 5 feet in the ground. set
plumb ana true to the line. 1T the
last meeting of council bill was al
lowed the new concern of 81, GOO for
200 poles, hardware and labor. Five
dollars to the pole ought to pay for
something extra good.
In the yard where these poles were
lying this morning were % just fin
ished, the paint yet green. TIE paint
is yellow ochre priming coat. They
are to have coat of green over this.
OF the y poles not one was straight.
Nineteen of them bad holes in the
butt, of different sizes, some had two
holes. Only five of them were solid
in the butt and of these, one was said
by a lum herman who was loading
some boards into a car near bt 10 he
of the will do variety. Seven Of
them are so bad that the reporter
put his hand in the hole where the
heart was rotted out and could pull
the wood out by the handful. Twelve
of them are but little better. They
are 80 feet in length and the paint in
dicates that they are to go in the
ground but four feet or less Not one
of them is over six inches through at
the top, am most of them are under
that; many under 81 inches. The nan
" ho could set them ''true to the line
would be a most skillful mechanic.

A TOWN in RUINS
Firm of South Carolina Mer-
chants Under Suspicion
of Arson.
HAD REMOVED GOODS
Fire Broke Out Mysteriously In Their
Store and Spread Throughout
the Whole Town.
Twenty-Three Business Houses AT
Timmonsville Destroyed-Many
Chicago Families Suffer.

Columbia, S. c.. Oct. 31.-Twenty-
three business houses, comprising
the heart of the town of Timmons-
vile, were burned yesterday. There
was an explosion III the store of Smith
& Dennis that aroused the town, fol-
lowed by flames bursting out. A keg
of powder is supposed to have ex-
ploded. There was no apparatus for
fighting the fire and citizens were
compelled to witness the destruction
of their property without being able
to stay the flames. One block of 10
brick stores. including the Bank of
Timmonsville. is in the burned dis
trict. The loss is conservatively
placed at 100000, with less than
one-third insurance. w. f. Dennis. of
the firm of Smith & Dennis, general
merchants, was arrested for alleged
arson. Smith. 1t is said, had left the
town when citizens called at his place.
Because of the peculiar manner in
which the fire started suspicion rested
on these men and a search of their
premises revealed boxes of goods,
shoes. etc, stacked in their houses
and barns. 1t is reported that those
goods were removed from their store
before the fire.

FOUND HIS Wife
Did Mr.. William Littlefield
of VaIqa, South Dakota
IA Romance.

Mr.. Littlefield, who caused the
nsation yestt rday by going on his
second quest for his wife, returned
from Muncie this morning, having
found her, and all may yet be happy
though he was in doubtful frame OF
r1ind to some degree. He had his
money, but the lady did not return
with him. She told him that if they
came back together it would attract
attention and cause talk, and for him
~ come back ard she would return
this afternoon He inquired for her
at the depot at Muncie and a trans
fer man who took her to hotel
directed him to her abiding place.
He saw her through the window
She gave him his money, what there
was left, and he came back to Rich
moud. He said if she came this
afternoon be would take her west
with him, but if she did not be
would so without her. She told him
she went because she was angry with
Ler mother. Littlefield says that
be saw Miss Smiths advertisement
for a husband in a matrimonial paper
published in Toledo and answered it.
A correspondence and exchange of
photographs resulted in an engage
ment. He started here with his
threshing clothes and long hair,
out fixed up at Chicago. His home
is at Volga, South Dakota. He came
here last Wednesday and they ar
ranged TO marry and were married at
s o'clock Monday evening OF this
week. Before the wedding
she quarreled with her mother, he
thought because she thought the
wedding was not sufficiently elab-
crate The next morning, before GO
ing, she said to a neighbor that she
didn't like to go so far from
home with that man, but that she
was going away; how far she could
not say, but far enough that the folks
would do well if they ever saw her
alive again. He adds that he came
500 miles to get her and he did not
like to give her up.

GAS MATTERS.
The New Injunction Suit
: Filed at New Castle.

The suit of The Citizens Gas Co.,
Enterprise Gas Co., Indiana Shovel
Co., and the town of New Castle
against the Richmond Gas Co., to en-
Join them from pumping gas out of
this county was filed yesterday in
the circuit court at New Castle.
The case will be pushed as rapidly
As the law permits. In the meantime
the defendants are busily engaged in
laying the pipe line and are pushing
the work as rapidly as possible SO as
to get the gas into Richmond before
the winter sets in.
This morning several wagons came
into town loaded with pipe for the
line in this vicinity. The New Cas-
tie Tribune wipes its eyes and
shrieks that "The pumping station is
about complete ard everything will
be ready in short time to rob us of
our fuel.

The G. r. & NJ. is not having a bed
of roses to lie on at Marion from all
appearances. According TO the Trib-
une of yesterday Councilman Crose
of that village the night before in
formed the council that the G. K. 4
VI. had stolen two streets there and
was gui ty of highway robbery. He
said their methods branded them as
anarchists since they did not seem
to recognize the law as necessary
adjunct to their business. He accused
the city attorney af representing the
company more than be did the
city. 1t appears that the
company have elevated cross
ings over two streets and have
driven piling in the streets to
support them and appear to intend
to leave it that way. The council
passed resolution requiring the re-
moval of this piling. In the matter
of making grades in certain other
streets to be crossed the company
was required to give a $50, 900 bond
to insure the city from any damage
in the making of the street changes,
which the company must make at
their own expense; and the company
not being ready to file the bond the
matter was postponed to a meeting
to be held later, when the bond will
be required.

MANY FAMILIES sUFF EIs
Fire Wipes Ou, Two Blocks OF Dwell
lings In Chicago.

Chicago, Oct. 31.-Seventy- fam
lilies lost their homes last night and
S250,000 worth of property was de
stroyed in fire that started in Peter
son & Co.'S picture frame factory at
Union street and Austin avenue.
Famed by a strong wind the flames
got beyond control and spread TO the
s,.saa1I eacking establishment 81 Eein-
berg & Stopp and a long row Of resi-
dences adjoining. Two blocks of
dwellings skirting Milwaukee avenue
were wiped out before the fire was
subdued. The Peterson factory. which
with contents was valued at Sf75.o00
fully insured, was destroyed. The
bulk of the remainder of the loss
was on residences, fairly well COW
cred by insurance.
There were many rumoTs of lives
lost in the fire, but it is believed that
all people living in the burned build
ings escaped.
One of the incidents of the fire was
the cremation of the body of Frank
]. Ruck at his home. 14S Milwaukee
avenue. He died in the afternoon
of blood poisoning. So quickly did
the flames invade the building that
there was no chance to remove the
body and it was incinerated.

Indiana Apple Belt.
Cam bridge City Tribune J

The apple belt of Indiana this sea
son is confined to very narrow terri
tory along the eastern edge, and CON-
prising Wayne, Union, Fayette and
Franklin counties, the southern por-
tion of Randolph and the eastern
part OF Henry and Rush. Aside from
this the yield is Indifferent, although
in places there are good orchards.
The yield in this vicinity is fully IS
per cent. of crop, and is larger than
any other given locality in the United
States. Cambridge City has been a
buying and shipping center, and it is
safe to say that more apples were
handled here this season than ever
before. Moulton & Reidel of Ander
son were the largest buyers and Sc
cured about $500 barrels. J. c.
Ayers x Son OF Muncie shipped 1 900
barrels from Germantown and 325

QUEER STORY
TOLD BY A GERMAN REFU.
GEE.
Heir to a Vast Estate and
Threatened With All
Sorts of Troubles.

Richard Sternberg created quite a
sensation at the Brunswick hotel
last night. He had been there but a
day, and retired in good shape, but
in the night aroused every body by his
outcries, and finally ran out of his
room crying that some one was after
him trying to kill him.
The police were called and he was
taken to headquarters. He was IN q
very excits d state, and soon lost con-
sciousness. DR.. Markley, city physi-
clan, was called, and -four i the man
in a complete state of catalepsy
caused by the excitement into which
he had worked himse.f. He could not be
aroused but recovered consciousness
this morning and told his story,
which is romantic if true and seems
also to hint at sort of INSANITY
trust at Fort Wayne. He is about
twenty wears of age. He says that
his mother is worth 500, 900, and his
home is at Breslog, Schlieswig, Ger
many. His name is Richard Stern
belg. He and three sisters are the
only heirs to his mothers property.
He has been in this country for
eighteen months and speaks the Lam
guage fairly well for that time OF
familiarity with it, but is still hard
to understand or to make under
stand. He has been around the coun-
try a good deal, but has located no
where as he had money when he came
and his mother sends hin 50 per
week, which supports him. He
finally got to Chicago and then to TT
Wayne where he fell il with a Ger
man who is known here. We do not
use this man name for fear OF
doing him injustice. Sternperg says
tha. be wanted to go home and wrote
TO his mother for money and is ex-
pecting 800 by money order, as he
usually gets his remittances from
home. This German at Fort Wayne
knew this and also that be had prop
erty coming to him, and began steps
to have him declared of unsoInd mind
that be might get this money and be
appointed his guardian. Stern berg
being informed of this ran away be-
fore being detained by the officers
and came here
What there is of foundation for his
story cannot be determined until it
is investigated. The police here
placed him in a boarding house, and
will investigate the case thoroughly.
Tickets found in his pockets show
that he has been playing policy hard,
and he may be more crazed than now
appears.

Portland, Ind, Oct. 31.-On Nov.
