EUREKA LODGE AT WORK
ATTEMPT WILL BE MADE TO SECURE
NATIONAL HEADQUARTERS.
Delegates to Chattanooga Convention
WIFI Be Entertained I'm This City
Saturday Afternoon.

Eureka Lodge. No. IA. Brotherhood of Lo-
connective Firemen, is preparing to enter
tain the delegates to the international con-
vention of the order, which convenes in
Chattanooga, Tenn, next Monday, when
they stop over in this city Saturday after
noon. A special train from Chicago, made
up of baggage car and nine Pullmans, will
carry all the delegates from the Northwest
20 the convention. The train will arrive
here early in the afternoon and remain
three or four hours.
During this brief visit the lodge will show
the delegates about the city. The object
of this entertainment is to capture the in
ternatonal headquarters for Indianapolis.
At the last convention it was decided to
move the headquarters from Peoria, H., to
some city where the order would have bet
ter business and mail facilities. The inter-
national organization does about 100000
worth of business a year, employs thirty
clerks and requires a floor space Of 1000
feet. The Locomotive Fireman, their
monthly magazine, is published by the or
der, and a city is wanted that can furnish
more adequate service for the high class
of work required and which will afford
better mail facilities. The circulation OF
the magazine is 10000 month. The object
of Eureka Lodge is to show the delegates
that Indianapolis possesses all the require
ments of the international office.
The special train will be made up in Chi
cago, where the firemen and their wives
and the delegates TO the women's auxiliary
rendezvous. The exact number of delegates
is known and space will be reserved for
them in the train accordingly. The delegates
from Indianapolis will be picked up here,
where crews and the engine will be
changed. Eureka Lodge is preparing to
decorate an engine, which will take the
train on to Chattanooga. The delegates
from this city are Joseph Farrell of No.
IA. Ed Shields, of No. 2, and Joseph H.
Clarke, CT No. 447. Mrs Beatrice Bloomeyer
is the delegate from the Women's Auxiliary
of Eureka Lodge. The reception committee
appointed to receive the visiting delegates
is composed of Henry link. Henry Bloc
meyer. Robert Colder, William Colder and
Joseph III. Clarke.
Eureka Lodge is taking the lead in the
entertainment of delegates and to secure
the international headquarters because the
members of the other two local lodges are
so scattered that they cannot be got to-
gether. The Commercial Club has promised
to assist the local delegates in securing the
headquarters. Mayor Bookwalter who is
member of the Fort Wayne Lodge has
also announced that he will endeavor to be
| here to meet the special train and use his
| influence in capturing the prize.

The Parade Not as Large as Some
That Preceded Ii, but in a Way
Representative.
PICNIC AT THE FAIR GROUNDS
SEVERAL THOUSAND MEN AND
WOMEN ENJOY THEMSELVES.
Hundreds of workmen Watched Their
Streets-Charactero of Observance.

Labor day was never more generally cell
ebrated in Indianapolis than yesterday.
All industries and stores were closed 10
give the employees their annual holiday,
and business and professional men took
one-day vacation. Business life was en-
tirely suspended except with the railroads.

and where 1t was absolutely necessary to
keep affairs moving. and then forces were
reduced to the minimum. Each person had
some particular way of celebrating. Some
joined in the organized labor demonstra-
ton, more preferred to stand on the streets
and be spectators. and others attended the
ball game, pienics or spent the time at
home. However, business affairs were put
away entirely. The great factories were
silent, the hum of machinery was stilled,
and an occasional man, who did not care
to celebrate, weariy moved about in the
large, empty buildings brushing cobwebs
away and oiling neglected machinery. His
only company was perhaps proprietor or
official, who took advantage Of the oppor-
tunity to catch up with some tardy work.
In such cases the two took comfort In each
others society and exchanged words for
perhaps the first and last time. At best
ii was a sleepy job to work on Labor day.
and those who tried 1t took their time
and quit early.
Organized labor did not make as big a
demonstration usual. The parade in the
morning, the main feature of Labor day,
was the best ever given. although there
was not such large turnout. The crowd
at the fair grounds in the afternoon, where
a programme of track events and other
contests were carried out. was less than
usual, and there were not more than 1000
people on the grounds. The big baseball
game proved to be strong competitor,
and in the evening many labor badges were
seen on the passengers alighting from the
crowded Washington Park cars. The
trouble with the parade was that a large
majority of the members of the unions
preferred to stand on the sidewalk and
watch their comrades march. There were
also number of picnics and outing par
ties which detracted from the official cele-
bration in the afternoon. A ball game be-
tween the Star store and Peoples Outfit
ting Company's team, at Capital City Park,
kept more than 900 from the fair grounds.
Not a few stayed at home. But summing
IL all up, there were but few who did not
observe the day in some way, and were
well satisfied in their own mind as TO how
the laborihg mans holiday should be cell
ebrated.

MERCHANTS ICE COMPANY.


The Merchants Ice Company. coop
erative association of Indianapolis butch
ers, saloon keepers and grocers. began
delivering ice yesterday to its patrons. At
present only stockholders are being sup
piled and the company will not solicit ad-
ditional business. The company purchased
the Benner & Schmidt plant. with a capaci-
ty of forty tons daily. and the plant has
been taken out of the ice dealers COM
bination. The Merchants Company does
not expect any hostility at present from the
ice combination, though it feels able to de-
fend one.
The company is now selling ice at Is cents
per hundred and expects to make a profit.
Il. f. Schmidt. formerly of the Benner &
Schmidt plant. is manager. It's progress is
of interest to ice consumers all over the
State, as the artificial and natural COM
panies of the State have a working under
standing. If this company is successful
others will doubtless be formed by those
who feel that the combination prices are
too high.
The management OF the business is in
the hands of Victor r. Jose, proprietor of
Germania Hail. and Councilman John VOL
siffer, of the Fifteenth ward.

INTEREST IN BUILDING TRUST.
Promoters of Columbia Clay PrOduc,
Company WatchfuI.

Promoters OF the Columbia Clay Product
Company are interested in the ports from
the East as to the organization oy the Nor
gan interests of the building trust. The
building trust is not organized to build,
but to furnish materials and control their
price The building trust has the sympathy
of the steel trust, the lumber trust and the
fire-proofing trust. Reports from the East
assert that Charles NJ. Schwab's visit to
Europe is largely to put the finishing
touches on the steel combination in Eu-
rope because New York contractor who
was attempted to be forced to take struc-
tural steel at ruinous prices, and with the
proviso that none of the material was to
be furnished under two years, chartered a
freighter and secured enough building iron
for half dozen sky scrapers within thirty
days. This coup caused, ii is said, the visit
of Schwab abroad.
There is in New York building trust
composed of interests in the steel and other
material trusts, which has been capital
lied at $66. 200. and which intends, by
reason of its ability to get inside prices,
to build buildings and rent them. The pres
ident of the fire-proofing trust is in this
corporation and is also a director in the
steel trust. The promoters of the Column

fire-proof trust now has a practically thor
ough monopoly. The work on their plant
at Rockville will be pushed, and 1T is ex-
pected they will be able to secure orders

NEW PLAN IS OUTLINED
SUBSCRIPTIONS FOR THE PROPOSED
TECHNICAL INSTITUTE.
George w. Brown Suggests that Work
Can BE Done I'm the City's Large
Embellishments.

George W. Brown, whose task II Is as
chairman Of the technical institute finance
committee 10 raise a fund for the purchase
OF the arsenal grounds as a site for the
proposed school, has a new plan to augment
the fund. Although the fund is growing
steadily as the result of the generosity of
wealthy residents Of Indianapolis, Mr..
Brown thinks that citizens generally should
that IL they looked into the movement thor
oushly they would make contributions pro-
portionate to their means. 1t is his idea
therefore that in each large business house
OF mandatory one man, preferably the
cashier or bookkeeper of the concern,
should take charge of the work of collect
ing subscriptions in his place alone. With
the proper amount of missionary work
localized and with one man in each busi-
ness institution of any size to look after
the subscriptions. Mr.. Brown thinks that
the fund would be advanced rapidly.
Discussing the new plan last night. Mr.
Brown said: 'It is the desire of the COM
mittee TO reach everybody. On account of
the fact that 1t takes about all OF our time
TO see the wealthy men Of the community
we have not yet had time to visit all the
manufacturing establishments or large
business concerns. 1t seems to me that In
every plant OF any size there should be at
least one man with enough public spirit
and enthusiasm to take charge of an end
OF this important movement. He could ex-
plain TO the employees of the establishment
with which he may be connected the pur-
pose OF the movement and could constitute
himself a committee OF one to book sub
scripttons and TO collect them. Afterward
he could turn them over TO the general
committee. Because OF the nature of his
work cashier or a bookkeeper would be
the most satisfactory person TO act"
Within the next day or two IL is the pur-
pose OF Mr.. Brown and his associates to
see fifty OF the wealthy men OF the CITY on
behalf OF the movement. From these men
Mr.. Brown expects TO obtain satisfactory
results. A number have signified their in
tention informally of doing something for
the technical school
