FIGHTS TO KEEP WIRES
Western Union seeks Injunction
Against Pennsylvania Railroad 20
Restrain Removal of Poles.

CHICAGO. Jan. THE light between the
Pennsylvania railroad system and the
Western Union Telegraph company was
carried into the federal court today when
the telegraph company fled a bill for an
injunction to restrain the Pittsburg. Gin
%cinnatl, Chicago q st. Louis railroad from
preventing the operation Of its business
en- the railroads after June 2.
The telegraph company asserts that such
action would cause great injury to its
business and inconvenience to the public.
Tho contention is also made that the com
p~lainant has certain agreements with the
United States government for the trans
mission of messages and that these agree
ments cannot be lnterfered with by the
defendant. The Western Union also bases
its petition on the claim that It has con-
tracts with the defendant company and its
predecessors under which the use OF the
right-of-way for poles and wires canrot
be taken away.

PURCHASES A new HOME
SECURITY TRUST COMPANY BUYS
HARTFORD BUILDING.
A Deal Regarded an Excellent One
for This InstitutiOn-TO Re-
move April 4.

Late Saturday afternoon the Security
Trust Company closed a deal with the Con-
necticut Mutual Life Insurance Company
by which the trust company becomes the
possessor of a handsome home of its own.
For the sum of $4,000 the trust company
buys the Hartford block, AS East Market
street, which is in the center of the wall
street" of Indianapolis, with a frontage of
3S1s feet on Market street, running back to
a depth of 10 feet, the building being a
five-story stone, iron and brick structure
of dignified architecture. The directors of
the Security Trust Company were felicitat-
ing themselves on the purchase ssterday,
as the building is admirably suited for the
trust company's purposes and contains one
of the best burglar proof vaults in India Ia,
lined with steel and stone and strongly REIN
forced with steel rails, with time locks and
other appliances to make it perfectly Sc
cure. On this vault alone the constructors
of the building spent $4,000. 1t is built
from the ground up.
The Security trusts new home adjoins
the Law building Immediately to the east,
and has a ten-foot easement to the first
alley to the west, besides an easement for
light and air between the two buildings. 1t

the cause of good morals and temperance

lican party. There is no avoiding this issue
dividing of responsibility. The Nichol-

the Republican party. The Republican
party has. up TO this time. withstood all
the assaults made on the party or on the
NICHOLSON law. The party has steadily
grown stronger in the State until, from
small margins or pluralities IL carried the
State the last general election by about
thirty thousand majority. This in spite
of the Liquor League and the saloon in

ago. when the friends of temperance want
ed to amend or strengthen the Nicholson
law, the Liquor League fought them al
every point. saying let the Nicholson law
alone, satisfied with il, etc. Now,
because the highest court in the State has
decided a point that gives temperance peo-
pie some encouragement TO work for
forcement of the law, great howl comes
I'D from the Liquor and Brewers League
and their henchmen. demanding the repeal
of the. to them, Objectionable features OF

this country. Indiana does not want 10
