new MAN IS APPOINTED
GEORGE w. GROSHEIDER SUCCEEDS
GEORGE e. sTEINHAUER.
The Latter Summarily Removed After
Failing to Send to the Govern
or His Resignation.

Failing to hear from George e. Stein
hauer, Democratic member of the Board
of Police Commissioners Of New Albany.
whose resignation he had requested, Gov
ernor Durbin yesterday summarily removed
Mr. Steinhauer and appointed in his stead
George w. Grosheider. Mr.. Grosheider
was notified of his appointment by wire and
accepted His commission will be forwarded
to-day. Mr.. Grosheider is prominent bus
mess man.
Mr. Steinhauer was quoted In a dispatch
to an afternoon paper yesterday as say
ing that he had received a communication
from the Governors secretary intimating
that his resignation would be acceptable.
but that he had not heard from the Cover
nor directly and had not resigned under the
circumstances. At the Governors Office
yesterday this statement attributed to
Steinhauer created some little amusement,
as official communications from the chief
executive are always made in the third per-
son through his secretary.
No announcement has been made by the
Governor relative to the appointment of a
successor to Mr.. McCulloch the Republic
an commissioner who forwarded his resig-
nation promptly on receipt of the request
from the Governor. 1t is understood that
the appointment will be made to-day.

NOEL REPLIES TO WYNNE
ATTORNEY SAYS HE is GLAD TO BE
RELIEVED FROM DUTY.
Implied Criticism Of Committees
Course In Limiting Investigation-
Will Testify IL Called.

James w. Noel, whom the Council COM
mittee investigating charges against Edwin
d. Logsdon dismissed Saturday, has replied
to the notification sent him by Mr. Wynne
that his services are no longer required.
He says he is glad to be relieved Of the
task. Noeps letter follows:
I'm response to your notice by telephone
that my services are not longer desired and
that the committee will limit its investiga-
tons TO the sprinkling and sweeping con-
tracts, herewith transmit all papers that
Personally l am glad to be relieved OF
my engagement as attorney for your COM
mittee. Nothing but the demands of a
good cause would induce any man to re-
main In such arduous and unpleasant en-
ployment
you contemplated large public service on
your and my part. l was given free hand
and open field, to be unrestricted by polit-
ical pressure. Neither friendship nor self
interest was to be regarded In the perform
ance of our several duties. You were to
have the dignity of court, charged not
with hunting evidence. but with hearing
and considering that which was brought
before you. In this high purpose believed
you to be sincere, and, so believing,
sought to do my duty fearlessly, please
whom 1t might. 1 have no apologies to
make.
"As citizen regret that you have de-
cided to thus limit the investigation after
having consented to take cognizance of any
and all official corruption or misdoing in
Indianapolis. Your attention has been
called to matters yet uninvestigated, within
the scope of your official duty as a stand
ing committee, concerning which the public
has right to know the facts These mat
ters involve alleged corruption in the let
ting OF public franchises and frequent vio-
lation Of law in the administration of office.
Your chairman instructed that witnesses
should be subpoepaed to testify touching
such matters and it will be a matter of
public regret that the examination of these
subjects is to be abandoned. The inference
which the public will naturally draw is that
the detective episode has been seized as a
welcome pretext TO bring the investigation
to a close"
Noel said yesterday that If called to the
stand on subpoena he will not disobey. He
left the inference that he has important
facts to divulge.
The committee will probably hold a ses-
sion this week. although Chairman Wynne
has not decided on what night to resume
the investigation of Mr.. Logsdon's connec-
ton with the letting of sprinkling and
sweeping contracts.

the Merchants Coal Company to strike for
the same scale OF wages. On investigation
Ii was found that the Somerset Company
had posted notices in their mines but had
taken out the machines in the mine and
paid pick rates OF IS cents per ton. The Con-
tfnental Company, believing that the Som
erset people were paying IL cents, posted
notices to pay their employees the same
rate and continued to do until the last
OF May. when they discovered that Al cents
was not being paid by anybody. They then
posted notices that they would pay no more
than SO cents per ton for loading after the
machines. This caused their men to strike.
After a conference with representatives OF
the Merchants Coal Company and the Con-
tinental Coal Company. they agreed TO pay
81 cents per ton for loading after machines

and that the union is growing very rapidly.

TURNED OFF THE GAS.
Indianapolis Company Takes Step
Long Contemplated.

At precisely o'clock yesterday morning
the indianapolis Gas Company shut off the
supply of natural gas from every consumer.
The natural fuel that has been the Joy of
the good housewife for fifteen years will
never be lighted again from the mains OF
the Indianapolis company. The supply dur
ing the past few winters has been so insig-
nificant that the step taken by the COM
pany will not make much difference. In
most houses arrangements have been made
to use other fuel for cooking and heating
purposes.
The Indianapolis Gas Company will de-
vote all its attention to the artificial gas
business and is offering inducements to for
mer natural gas patrons to put in artificial
meters. The many miles of natural mains
paralleling the artificial mains will prob
ably be removed, as the hope OF revival of
the natural gas supply is too remote to
warrant the pipes being retained.
At Elwood, Strawtown, Fishers Station,
Brightwood and the Central-avenue and
Thirty-fourth-s stations the mains
were closed. At the Central-avenue station
they were capped TO guard against leakage.

upon petition, has given committee per-
mission TO ascertain what the sentiment OF
the people Is in regard to the establish

what support the public at large would give
an enterprise of this sort, and for this pur-
pose you are requested to fill out the blanks
below.
1T may be too late TO arrange for such
schools during the present year. yet IL is
thought best to gather information for
future possible use. While IL is hoped that
those who are able TO contribute toward
the support OF such schools may lend their
aid financially. there is no obligation to
subscribe anything and the children OF
those who are unable TO contribute would
be received just as cheerfully as others

weeks ago. Meinrad Wulpi. Of Omaha. was
chosen secretary and II was deemed advisa-
BILE that there be some little correspondence
and investigation before the final touches
We're put ON. The situation is now ripe
for the perfection OF the association and
the meeting has been called for to-day.
Two questions are trou6lng the cas So,
employees and the increased cost of produc-
ton OF coffin boxes. The new association is
being formed largely for the purpose OF
dealing with the labor question and since
the first meeting here the manufacturers
and employees I'm Chicago have fought out
their differences and have practically set
tied their troubles. The manufacturers.
without close organization, Were virtually
at the mercy OF their employees, as they use
skilled labor almost altogether, and the ma
ture OF the work Is such that they cannot
go out and pick up men to I'LL the places of
strikers
I'VE are standing squarely on the prfn-
c.ples OF d. ID. Parry, Of Indianapolis" said
Secretary Wulpi last evening I'VE refuse
fatty to deal with the unions and insist
that we shall use our discretion in the en-
ployment OF union or nonunion men. That
Is, IL we choose to put a nonunion man at
work alongside a union man we insist 1t is
none OF the latter's business. Parry is
right In his attitude toward union labor,
and his principles are going to prevail in
the end"
As TO the increased cost in the manufac-
ture OF coffin boxes the members OF the
association say the time has come when
they must increase the price OF the boxes.
They claim they are now selling the boxes
at sp actual loss. and that the loss has as
sumed such proportions as to cut In ma
tefially on the profits OF the rest OF their
business.

that these schools would keep many chill

provide instruction of a useful kind The
establishment of such a school or schools

BURGLAR-PR00F VAULT.
Safe at the PostofHce Now Made Dou-
bly, Secure.

The vault of the postoffice was yesterday
made more secure against burglars and
safe blowers. Workmen OF the American
District Telegraph Company spent the
day lining the inside of the vault with
wooden doors Running through the doors
is a mesh of network OF very fine wires
so that If robber should bore through the
safe into these doors his tools would strike
the wires and an alarm be sent into the
office of the telegraph company, which
would dispatch one of their private de-
tectives at once TO the scene OF the bur-
glary. The doors also arranged so
that very slight shake or commotion
sends in alarm. By the system the
company tests the safety of the vault
every fifteen minutes.

spection of ]. +. Powell. chief electrician
