Green Tells His story.

The watch which Green is charged with
stealing he said last night belonged to the
girls mother. He said the girl gave him
the watch, knowing what he intended doing
with it, and that he pawned it to get money
to come to indianapolis. Il did not have
any intention of dsposirg of it," he said,
and to-day 1 thought of mailing the pawn
check to my father so that he could hold it
until l was able to redeem it,"
Green talked like a young man who had
received a fair education. This is simply
a case of love-" he said. 1 love the girl and
1 know she loves me- OF course, L now see
my mistake, but whatever accusation may
be made against me l can say before God
that that girls father takes her back to
Chicago VirtuOuS when j took her
away. l only had SIS or $50 to start with,
and it took so for railroad fare l looked
diligently for a position, but could find
none. Then 1 applied TO Mr.. Smith and
offered to wash dishes or do anything so
that / could earn money. i went to LeVey
Brothers, and | believe they would have
given me position next Monday. As soon
as L was able we intended to get license
and be married The only reason we were
not married when we first came here was
because | did not have the money, and if
we had spent it for license we would not
have had enough for a meal ticket l did
without several meals in order TO make our
meal ticket last a week.
Il am now in prison. but do not regret
what have done | did IL because | loved
her. and when | get out l will marry her. L
have lived a fast life. My father has spent
a great deal of money on me- giving me an
education in music and as good a home as
any young man, but / hardly think my
father will come to my rescue now. | am
twenty years old, but my experience is that
of man of forty. When 1 get out of this

He further stated that his musical train
ing had in measure fitted him for the
stage, and that ii was the intention of HIM
self and wife, when they were married, to
so into the theatrical business. He said he
was writing parts for himself and the girl
for the stage. He said he was a frequent
visitor To the girls home and became well
known there on account of his singing and

AGAINST SMOKE NUISANCE.
building Inspector Files Ahidavits
Against Two Property Owners.

Following closely his threat against
smoke violators, printed in the Journal yes
terday morning, Building Inspector Bartel
yesterday swore out affidavits against
Frank Maus Fauvre and Frank NJ Talbot
Mr.. Bartel charges Mr. Fauvre, who owns
the old Franklin building, at the southeast
corner of the Circle and Market streets,
with ignoring his notices and continuing
to allow a volume of dense black smoke to
pour from his property. Against Mr.. Tai
bolt, who owns the Talbot block, at the
northwest corner of Pennsylvania and Mar
ket streets, the inspector charges prac-
tically the same things-ignoring notices
and continued violations. Mr. Fauvre said
last night that the notice had not been
ignored that his agent had told the in
spector that certain improvements were
under way. He therefore feels that he has
not been treated fairly.
II intend TO prosecute these men," said
Mr.. Bartel yesterday, mot because they are
making any more smoke tl4an some of their
immediate neighbors, or as much perhaps
some who are within a stones throw
but because they have not manifested the
proper attitude toward a settlement of
the nuisance. Other property owners have
intend to obey the law. They gave me
something to go ola and assured for them
selves considerable treatment. Mr.. FauVre
and Mr. Talbot have left me in ignorance
of their intentions. and / can proceed upon
no other theory than that they intend TO
keep on violating the law unless they are
forced TO stop.
The Inspector announced that he would
do his best TO secure convictions in the
Police Court.

ISOLATION OF CHILDREN.
Youthful Criminals to BE Confined mt
Home Until Time of Trial.

With view to ascertaning the prac-
ticability of separate confinement of boys
who have sinned against the law from
hardened criminals Major Megrew and
Charles Mcguire, of the Board of Works,
and Mrs. w. II. Hart, Mrs. James S. Tark-
ington, Mrs. Mary Moody and Mrs. Lew
Wallace jr., members of the committee ap-
pointed by the local Council of Women for
the visitation of state, county and city in
situations, paid a visit to the city police
station yesterday morning. The local
Council Of Women has been very much in
terested in obtaining a reform of methods
Of confinement formerly in vogue, and the
visit of the committee with the board was
the result of considerable discussion.
The visitors found that the garnet of the
station over the present cellrooms could
easily be utilized for youthful criminals,
and the members of the board and the
council committee were very much in favor
of such improvement until they had a talk
with Judge Stubs and Superintendent
Taffe The judge and the superintendent
informed them that hereafter all boys and
girls arrested and brought to the station
will be sent to their parents for close con-
finement at home until their trials occur.
strictly responsible for the isolation of the
children and their appearance in court.
Friday of every week, as announced several
weeks ago by the Journal, has been set
aside for the hearing OF cases against boys
and girls so that they may not come in
contact with older sinners. The visitors
were informed that the plans adopted by
away with police station confinement OF
children altogether.

in the franchise requiring the Southern TO
haul coal at fair rates would be valid
City Attorney Fred Joss, when asked 10
give his opinion on the question, declared
that until ne was requested to render an
opinion to the Board of Works he preferred
to give no expression.
While none of the members of the board
wished TO be quoted on the point, the at
mosphere around the board office has been
filled several times with remarks from at
least two Of the board members who believe
that the city may take the step of insuring
citizens in the future low coal rates. 1t is
believed now that when the franchise is
drawn up for the consideration of the Of
ficials of the road the board will have seen
to IL that the coal rates matter has been
taken care of.
MR.. PARRY'S STATEMENT.
A member of the Board of Works in dis
cussing the attitude of ID. NJ. Parry, presi-
dent of the Southern, on the question of
coal rates inclines TO the view that Mr..
Parry will do whatever is reasonable in the
matter and that he is sincerely anxious to
give Indianapolis citizens chance to bene-
fit by his road in coal rates well in
other matters.
When Intercepted on the point Mr.. Par
~ said to the Journal: "As TO signing a
franchise containing a provision of the
kind suggested | cannot say now what
will do because it would be taking steps in
the dark. Let me say this, however, L VIII
never so long as / am I'm control Of the
Southern-and / have already stated that
with the other gentlemen am not only go
ing TO build the road but run it-go into a
combination with other coal roads to main
tain the existing coal rates or into COM
binatiOn 10 increase them. l see no reason
why coal cannot be hauled TO Indianapolis
for 30 cents per ton. 1t is hauled to An
derson for that rate and indianapolis
should receive the same benefit. | believe
the Southern would be able TO do hauling
for that price-20 cents less than now
charged by the other roads"
The Commercial Club is greatly interested
in the coal rates question, and believes, IL is
asserted. that the board may legally COM
pei the Southern road to provide minimum
rates The Board of Works regards the
coal rates question as of equal Importance
at least with the question of track eleva-
ton.

WESTINGHOUSE BRIDGE.
Members of Works Board Say 1t VIII
Have to Be Repaired.

The condition of the iron bridge on West
Washington street over White river was
investigated by the Board CT Works yester-
day. and Messrs. Megrew and Mcguire, who
looked the structure over, came to the con-
clusion that unless some new planking is
placed in the bridge floor the city would be
a party to damage suits in the near future
The board thinks the general condition of
the bridge warrants continuance of traf-
fic on IT for the present, but will probably
order much-needed repairs TO the floor at
once. The complaint was made by the In
diana Foundry Company, which does con-
siderable hauling of heavy iron work over
the bridge. The street-car company will
probably be ordered by the board to bear
Its part I'm the repair work by laying new
planking between it's tracks on the bridge.

The Directors Consider 1t Upon Re-
quest Of Building Inspector.

The directors of the Y. NJ. G. A. received
a communication the other DAY from
Building Inspector Bartel asking them TO
devise some means 10 abate the smoke
nuisance from their furnace. AT a meet
ing of the directors held Wednesday night
Mr.. SOmmerville suggested that they de-
fer using any new contrivances until they
had exhausted all other means at hand.
Mr. SOmmerviles plan is 10 build a brick
wall in the rear of the freboN that will
keep the smoke from going through the
chimney as soon as ii leaves the fire In
this way IL II thought the smoke would be
again circulated over the fire and all the
gases which IL contains be consumed This
plan was thought by some of the directors
10 be scarcely feasible, IL would require
the constant attendance Of the fireman at
his post IL this cannot BE- done IL is likely
that the patent stoker method will be used.
