The two hogs tipped the scales at

hog average GOO pounds and worth
$3.50. This is as much as fat steer
was worth a few years ago and is
thought to be about the top notch
received in this state for hog at

CAR LINE TO BLUFF
Extension of Rapid Transit That
Should be Secured This
Season.
CHANGE MADE IN THE LOOP
East Half is 20 BE Abandoned for the
Present, But Rest is I'm
changed.
CHANGE MADE IN THE LOOP

Rock Island should not permit the
present season to pass without an eN-
tension, or at least a reliable provis-
ion for an extension, of it's street
railway system. The announcement
ON the part of the Tri-City Railway
company some months ago of its pur-
pose to fulfill its pledge to the city
and construct n loop line to the bluff
was hailed with much qualification at
the time, and the route that was laid
out was regarded as generally pop
ular. While there was some objection
to a short section of the east end.
this obstacle might readily have been
overcome. and by this time il was the
depreciation that the company would
have its ordinance secured and
| its iron ordered so nothing
need stand in the way of
an early start in the spring.
But there have been numerous causes
for the delay, and the company in
surveying its route has encountered
many instructions that were not orig
inally anticipated. Hence il has about
determined to abandon the east half
of the loop altogether for the present
and stop the line at Twentieth street
and Eighteenth street. OF course.
this Will be a source of considerable
disappointment to people residing
east of Twentieth and TO the entire
territory lying between Twentieth
and Twenty-fourth that it was plan
ned to have the loop serve.
To Be No Loop at All.
General Manager Lardner said to-
day, however, that until some of the
other streets leading TO the bluff are
opened up, nothing further is likely
to be done. Mr.. Lardner denied that
any change whatever had been plan
ned or contemplated in the west half
of the loop. Notwithstanding that re-
ports have been current for some
days to the effect-apparently with
the authority of a company's repre-
sentative-that the three blocks be-
tween Fourth and Seventh are to be
abandoned. The line, Mr.. Lardner
stated. will run from Second avenue
and Nineteenth down Second to Fiji
teenth and thence out to Eleventh
avenue and east to Twentieth and out
to Eighteenth. There il will stop for
the present.

sWARTHMORE'S ENDOWMENT.
IL Must Reach S1,OOO,OOO Before DIR.
Swain VIII Accept.

Trustees of Swarthmore College have
been assured of subscriptions to the endow-
ment fund amounting to more than $3.50, OO0
This much was disclosed at a recent meet
ing.
With this amount promised, the trustees
have not, however. been able to assure DR..
Joseph Swain. president Of the Indiana
University. that they can meet the condi-
tons under which he has agreed to accept
the presidency of Swarthmore College.
DR.. Swain has been in Philadelphia and
has conferred with the trustees. He holds
10 his determination not to go East unless
100000 is added to the endowment fund,
making it in all s1.OOOO0O. He must be in
a position to tell the Indiana University his
decision within two weeks, and the trustees
are very anxious TO raise the whole amount
fused 70 put themselves in the position of
underwriting the sum, and must have posi-
tive assurance that the money is on hand
before they will make any positive agree
ment with DR.. Swain.
In the event OF failure to secure DIR.
Swain. William W. BirdSall, the former
president, who resigned. Will not be re-
tanned. 1t Is said that under these cOndi-
tons a member of the faculty would be
made president pro tempOre next fall.
There were only two sums of 100000 sub
scribed-that by Isaac H ClOthier and that
by William L. and Emma c. Bancroft.
Joseph Wharton gave smaller sum, did
the others who brought the amount up TO
its present total.

cinated now that those who have something
like smallpox have a light run OF IL, and
many cannot tell whether ii is varioloid,
measles, chicken pox or breaking out incl
dent TO vaccination. Down on the Ohio
river there are cases of skin eruption called
niger itch which might pass for small
pox If one was determined TO find it,"
The general expression Of opinion Of the
half dozen who talked Of the matter on
this occasion, three being physicians, was
that there is nothing unusual In the situa,
ton. There are cases of smallpox of mild
form in between fifty and sixty OF the
counties, the largest number being IN IN
dianapolis, where eighty cases were re-
ported April 30. Indeed, the latest reports
from all parts OF the State which the Sec
rotary Of the Board of Health has were
that of April 30. If the board has suese-
quent facts il has not made them public
nor has IL transmitted them TO the Gov
ernor Upon his call for the reports by
counties the reports presented yesterday
were those of April 80. Those ngures
showed an increase of between and per
cent. in the number of cases compared
with the report of March 81. There Is not
an official report showing whether the num-
Der of cases has increased since April 81
To an interested citizen with whom the
Governor talked yesterday before going 10
Anderson he said that he had not directly
or officially through the Board of Health
received any information showing that the
disease was spreading rapidly in any part
of the State.
II is quite remarkable that with all the
information in its possession the Board
of Health has not done something with Its
own appropriation to stamp out the disease
If ii had reached dangerous state. 1t had
an appropriation of 5000 on Nov. 1. The
language of the section appropriating the
money reads: For attending the quarter
ly meetings OF the State Board Of Health
TO each of the members of the board, ex-
cepting the secretary, the sum of $40 shall
be paid for each of said meetings; for
other expenses, such as office expenses, Inn
pure food, pollution of streams and pre-
venting the spread of contagious and in
fictitious diseases, the sum of 5000 is al
lowed" The auditors books show that
Of this sum the Board of Health had paid
out but S44 as expenses of the secretary in
visiting places to which he was called to
consider smallpox conditions.
This small expenditure on account of con-
tagious diseases and the large expenditure
for vital statistics, printing, etc, and the
fact that the board has given no reports of
any locality to the Governor upon his call
for the latest would seem to prove that
whatever has been said may be said the
Board of Health by its acts shows no fear
Of anything like an epidemic stage of the
disease.
1t is understood that steps have been
taken to cause the local health authorities
TO be very watchful, and that If they fail
in any locality to do their duty the au-
thority of the board will be exercised.

Want. an Investigation.

To the Editor Of the Indianapolis Journal:
One of your readers notices with much in
terest the quarantine Kentucky has estab-
lished against Indiana. How beautiful
But is it not a good time to settle some
things? The Governor should appoint a
commission to probe this matter to the
bottom. The cry of smallpox is like the
cry of mad dog. Then, these boards of
health are wonderfully disposed to magnify
their big work A year or so ago all the
churches over a large area in eastern In
diana were closed for public safety when
there was no smallpox in the land. The
writer ventures to express the opinion that
one dozen cases of smallpox cannot be
found in the two States now affected by the
senseless cry. Let the Governor. by a
commission, institute a most searching ex-
animation, empowered to send for persons
and papers and smallpox scales!
