SECOND CLAIM
FOR $4,000 AGAINST THE

A second large claims has been filed
with A. NJ McCarty, special master
commissioner, against the Structural
Steel Car company of Canton. It was
received Thursday afternoon from the
Ingoldsby Automatic Car company and
is for $4,000. One filed a few days
ago by the Bourne.Fuler company
for $4,000 runs the total up to almost
100000, in addition to the other
claims which have been authenticated.
1t is estimated that if any considera.

ed the dividends in the final settle
ment will be quite small
The Ingoldsby company sues to re-
cover under two contracts which were
entered into with the Structural COM
pany, one for ten patent dump cars
at a cost of $4,000. The company
figured that a profit Of $3.50 would be
made upon each car and that by rea-
son of the contract not being car
ried out 81 500 was lost.
The second contract was for 500
patent dumping coke cars at s1,074
each, or a total of $537, 500, upon which
order it was expected to clear Sat-
500. bringing the total profits up to
$4,000, for which amount the COM
pany is contending is a legal claim.
The claim is an unliquidated one,
and in order to get it in shape that
it can be acted upon by the courts,
Judge Wing appointed Mr.. McCarty a
SDeCial master OmmigSiOner to hear
the evidence and determine the true
status of the two claims. The first
claim was of the same nature of the
second, being for angles, tees, etc,
amounting to 1000 tons. These or

Severely Scored by a

Washington, d. c., May 19.-The
Rev. H. H. Lucas, of Fairmont, w. Va,
in an address today on christian Cit
izenship," before the annual conven-
ton of the Methodist Protestant Chris
tian Endeavor Union, created stir
by his demand for cleaner politics.
Speaking of the great number in the
country who are heart and soul in pol
itics, he said:
"They follow their party, work for
their party, vote for their party-right
Of wrong, decent or indecent, their par
ty. Therefore, they hesitate at moth
ing, IL party votes may be gained
thereby. 1t appears as 10 truth and
righteousness have been dubbed old
fogyism, and drummed out of camp.
What is the influence of the Chris
tian church in politics? Who counts
the church? Who wants its vote. OF
who is afraid of it?
But name one politician Of national
prominence who is not afraid of the
liquor traffic. Have they not all dis
covered that on election day the saloon
counts for more than the church? The
saloon bulldozes, the church dozes."
