Gain appears in the receipts of leading
products, except wheat, which shows dis
appointing volume. Distribution of mer-
chandise remains as large as in the cor
responding week of last year, and con-
sumption shows little change, the buying
in retail lines being of the best and
very strong in wearing apparel and other
necessities. Considerable business in
staples is handled by jobbers, and the
mail-order houses are tested to the full
capacity of their working forces.
Labor is fully employed. new demands
for factory products equal expectations.
and the freight movement in all direc-
tons is as heavy as hitherto noted. Iron
and steel materials are not in oversup-
ply. and with a wider inquiry for rails
and structural forms there is liberal buy

How Commissioners Moores Has
Planned the New Building.

HOW Com 1S81Oner MOOrcS HaS
Planned the New Building.
School Commissioner Charles Moores. the
commissioner to whom has been given
charge of the proposed improvements to
the Shortridge High School. has the plans
for the addition to be made to the North
Side high school building, which was made
possible by the act of the last Legislature.
which permits an increase in the tax levy.
The plans for the new building provide for
the tearing down of the old building at
Pennsylvania and North streets and the
erection on the vacant land of a three-story
building 152x172 feet, which will front on
both North and Pennsylvania streets.
In the center of the new building will
be the auditorium. in which will be held
the school celebrations, chief among them
the commencements which have heretofore
been held In English's Opera House. The
new building will have many new depart
ments, among them a lunchroom and kitch-
en-, as we'll as a large and complete gym
nasium. The gymnasium will be in the
basement and will be 60x90 feet I'm size.
The gymnasium will be used for dancing,
and the complaints Of the pupils of the high
school that they have no room in which to
enjoy themselves will be obviated after the
new building is erected. The plans for the
new building were drawn by Vonnegut &
Bohn architects, The building will be be-
gun as soon as the money realized from the
sale of the bonds authorized is available.

the officials and bothering the public for
the past four or five months, Detectives
Asch and Manning, who were instrumental
in unearthing the gang of ghouls. say they
know Simms and have suspected him of be-
ing a ghoul. They say they tried TO get
him when they arrested Cantrell and the
others. Simms is also well known on lndi-
ana avenue among other negroes. Lewis
Brown, a barber IN the Union Station bar
Der shop. said to a Journal reporter a few
days ago that he was we'll acquainted with
Simms and was talking TO him on the
morning that he left indianapolis osten-
sibly for his home I'm Lexington, Ky. Brown
said that Simms told him that the Indian
apolis police were next" TO him and that
He said he decided to visit his parents In
Lexington, first stopping at Louisville, and
that he would later leave for parts UNI
known.
CANTRELL'S VERSION.
All the letters that Simms has written
have been dated at Louisville and II is
probable that he is still in Kentucky.
Rufus Cantrell says that wallace Simms
is myth. Cantrell was greatly annoyed by
the publication of the Simms letters and
claimed that they were written by one of
the doctors now under indictment, charged
with disturbing graves. He claimed that
the doctor had a grievance against him
and had written these letters to further
harass him. Cantrell, to substantiate his
story, said that many of the charges made
in the Simms letters were known to only
Cantrell and the doctor.
The woman Smms alludes to as having
received a letter from her husband in this
city shortly after the murder Of Doc Lung
is probably the one the detectives are
after, and the Information that she is in
Louisville may lead to her apprehension in
the near future.
Simms's statement that the murderers of
ately after the crime in a small rear room
of the laundry is borne out by the discovery
of bar Of soap, covered with hair and
blood, near sink in the rear of the laundry
by Captain Kruger. This discovery was
made few minutes after the finding Of the
Chinaman's body.

George B. Lockwood. of Peru. in charge
of the Republican press bureau during the

Wilson intended resigning. There had been
a number Of applications made for the
place, and the Governor at length fixed
upon Mr.. Lockwood as a young man par
ticularly well qualified to I'LL the somewhat
responsible duties of the Office.
Colonel Wilson probably WILL after a
time re-enter newspaper life. Prior to
his appointment by Governor Mount he was
editor of the Lafayette Courier. and 1t is
said he may resume work with that paper
