Mayor BOokwaIter Issues Order
Against It-Heck's Show Attractions
There will be no confetti throwing at
Heck's carnival shows on West Washington
street all of next week. Mayor BookwaIter
learned that several OF the big stores in
the city had ordered large quantities of con-
fetti for the carnival and he has issued an
order TO superintendent of Police Taffe
that confetti throwing Will not be tolerated.
Mayor Bookwalter says that confetti throw
ing in the past has been overdone and the
privilege abused. He believes there will
be sufficient attractions to amuse and enter
tain everybody without resorting to con-
fetti.
Manager Arnold. in charge of Heck s
big shows, Is determined to make the one
ring circus which will be the feature of
the shows, an entertainment that will
additional acrobatic and aerial acts and
some of the best bareback riders in the
country for the circus. While the old
fashioned one-ring show will be featured
and made as entertaining and amusing as
possible. the other big attractions will not
be sighted by the management, and Wood
ford's dog, pony and monkey circus. Bos-
tock's wild animal arena and the other
shows should attract large crowds.

Held to the Grand Jury.

The cases of the negro Edward Harris
and William Williams, who several weeks
ago exchanged shots during an encounter
with a gang of Bungaloos. of which Will
liams was said to have been the leader,
was ended as far as the Police Court was
concerned yesterday morning by Harris
and Williams both being bound over to
the grand Jury Judge Whallon said that
Harris bore an extremely bad reputation
and had just been released from the work
house, where he served an eight months
sentence for burglary, when he mixed up
with the Bungaloos. AT the time of the
shooting which occurred at Fountain
square Harris said. IL was claimed. that
he was a "colored Tracy and would die
with his boots on or be hanged at Michigan
City. Williams has been in trouble before

Urgent Call for Cars.

In railroad circles east and west. north
and south, officials are preparing for car
shortage, which it is thought is certain to
come should traffic be anything like that Of
last year, and this in spite of the largely
increased equipment. Careful transporta-
ton officials are anxious about the car sit
uation and claim that the prospective in
crease in tonnage will require more than
the new equipment to move it. The in
crease In equipment is about per cent. in
excess of last year. On some roads it is
even greater, and should the traffic be en-
larged the congestion and shortage of last
year may be repeated But some transpor-
tatlon officials take another view of the
matter and express the opinion that the per
diem rules are so we'll adhered TO that it
Will go far to prevent a congestion similar
10 that OF last winter. WeSt-bOund bust
ness. it is claimed, is much heavier than at
the corresponding period of last year, and
the loaded CAR movement demonstrates
Such TO be the case. The movement from
Chicago and st. Louis and other distrib-
ut1ng Western points will break the record
OF last year. The heavy west-bound traffic
and the lighter east-bound movement con-
tributes considerably to the slow movement
of cars, as some of the roads dislike to haul
empty cars either way. 1t is an unusual
thing for west-bound traffic at this season
or the year to be as heavy as east-bound
In fact, never before in July have exactly
similar conditions existed, but transporta-
ton officials are studying the problem care
fully and have frequent conferences with
higher officials in relation to keeping up the
supply of cars and locomotives. They have
considerable confidence that when all the
new equipment ordered is in service they
will be able to take care of all the business,
or at least the most pressing business,
without any marked congestion. One of
the drawbacks is shortage in facilities for
handling trains at such points as Cleve-
land, Peoria, st. Louis, Indianapolis and
Cincinnati. Tracks have been extended
somewhat this year and depot facilities en-
larged. but not to the extent that the grow
ing business of the country requires.

To Build Shops at Louisville.

The Louisville Evening Post says: The
Illinois Central has secured an option on
eighty acres of ground just outside of the
southern part of the city, and it has been
definitely intimated to the city officials that
the building of large shops is under con-
sideration. Certain concessions are neces-
sary, and if these can be secured it is
reasonably certain that the option will be
closed and the shops built. Agents for the
road have been inquiring into labor condi-
tions in Louisville. and the report they
made extremely satisfactory to the
management of the road. In Chicago dis
putes between labor and capital are so fire.
quent that the large corporations lose every
year thousands of dollars from this cause.
This question is said to enter largely into
the consideration, in addition to the fact
that shops to supply the demands of the
territory south Of the Ohio river are

1t is believed at Terre Haute that the
passing of the Evansville Terre Haute
and the Chicago & Eastern Illinois into one
control will be of especial benefit to that
city. While the two roads have been OPP
Grated as a through line there has been no
one located there with official discretion
acting for either road. While the city has
been a terminal point of both roads the
city has been treated more as If il were
simply a junction point. 1t is believed that
some of the higher officials of the consoli-
dat ted roads Will now be located in Terre
Haute with whom commercial and indus
trial interests can do business without hav-
ing TO refer small matters to Chicago or
Evansville, as in the past.

TO points in Minnesota, North Dakota,
Idaho and Washington. The rest went TO
the Canadian Northwest. According to
these estimates the traffic divided
