CEMENT WORKERS STRIKE
AND NEW MEN GET PLACES
Contractor at Riverside Park Re-
fuses Demand for an Increase
in Wages.

Because their demand for an increase in
wages was not granted, about twenty-five
cement workers employed at Riverside
Park yesterday walked out on strike. The
men were employed by Contractor August
Wacker. who, when the men quit work,
discharged them and sought new employees.
He says little delay resulted from the
strike.
The contract for the work was in the
hands OF Mr.. Wacker. and the city had no
connection with the strike. Mr. Wackei
employed the men and agreed 10 pay them
l7ia cents an hour. They demanded 20 cents
an hour. and took their appeal TO the Board
of Works. which referred them TO Mr..
Power. Mr.. Power told them that Mr.
Wacker held the contract and the city had
nothing TO do with their demands.

AUCTION OF PROPERTY
FORECLOSEO BY STATE
Many indianapolis Lots Will BE
Placed on the Market by
Auditor Sherrick.
OFFICE CLERKS BUSY

Auditor of State David e. Sherrick is
formula ting plans for selling large num-
Der of lots in this city that have been for
feited to the State on foreclosures. Mort
cages were given on the lots some years
ago, when money was borrowed from the
permanent endowment fund of Indiana
University, and were foreclosed about nine
years ago, but until recently no determined
steps were taken to dispose of the prop
erty.
John Bradley, Otto Minger, Benjamin f.
Cline and Albert A. Little were mort
gagors of a tract of land equivalent TO
forty-one lots. These are in Haughville
Park, and will probably be sold at auction
some time next month.
In West Indianapolis there are sixteen
lots in Jamesons first Belmont addition,
which will be sold about the same time
These lots became the property of the
State when a mortgage given by John A
Huston was foreclosed. There are great
many more lots scattered through the
city and county that will be disposed OF
at about the same time.
Deputies in the auditors office are busy
now, preparing abstracts and arranging
other preliminarieS to the sales.

for an Interest in Fathers
Estate.

Mrs. Belle Chamberlain, daughter Of the
late Arunah 3. Compton, filed suit yes
terday, asking to have the will of her de-
ceased father set aside. She declares that
her father at the time of the making of
the will was of unsound mind. and that
he was unduly Influenced by her two
brothers. Arthur B. and Raymond E.
Compton, who received the entire estate.
1t is said that the father in making his
will claimed that Mrs. Chamberlain and
another brother had caused him great
expense, and for this reason left them
nothing at his death of a $4,000 estate.

plaintiff against the heirs of the Compton

DEMONSTRATORS MUST
NOT WAIT TO CHANGE
Men Once Opposed to Saloon Ii
censes Cannot Lawfully Repent
at Eleventh Hour.

Signers of a remonstrance cannot with
draw their names from the paper after the
third day before the meeting of County
Commissioners and by so doing defeat the
purpose of the document. This is the pur-
port of a ruling in the Appellate Court yes
terday.
John Sexton, saloon keeper of Pike
township, applied for license in 1901. A ma
jority of the voters in the township were
secured on remonstrance, but before the
commissioners met and after the third day
before they were to meet number of the
demonstrators withdrew their names. Such
proceedings, says the court do not change
the effect of the remonstrance.
