INDICTMENTS REGARDED
AS A VERY GOOD JOKE
Fort Wayne Water Trustees In
dicted for Letting River Water
Pollute the Mains.
ANIMUS IS POLITICAL

Special to the Indianapolis Journal.
FORT WAYNE, Ind. Feb. 10.-The grand
jury returned indictments this afternoon
against the three waterwOrks trustees, Ed
ward White. Hugh Hogan and Julius
Tonne, and the Pennsylvania Railroad
Company for maintaining a nuisance in
that they permitted water mains to be in
fected with germs causing disease.
This is the result of a political turn given
TO the fact that there are fifty TO sixty
cases OF typhoid in this city. The trustees
being Republicans for the first time the
typhoid was seized by the courthouse ring
as an opportunity TO charge that the sick
ness was due to lack of vigilance in keep
ing water pumped by railroad company's
private plant from entering the city mains
and injecting il with bacteria from the
river, which furnishes the railroad with
water.
afternoon the local papers print that Prof.
Burrage, of Purdue, pronounced the sam
pie of water taken from the point of the
alleged contamination pure and potable
The papers also print details of the dis
covery of a secret connection in the COM
pany's planning mill, which was placed there
by a former Democratic board and no
record made OF IL or charge collected for
the water used. The indictments are the
joke OF the city tonight

Otherwise the Situation at the Ev-

Materially Changed.
PRESSURE IS VERY LOW

Special to the indianapolis Journal.
EVANSVILLE. Ind, Feb. 10-The river
wall of the water works plant. which has
been gradually sinking for the past two
weeks, was knocked down this afternoon
by Engineer Ludington and his men, who
have. had charge of the plant for several
days. The roof of the building is being
held by props. The engineers decided to re-
move the wall to prevent it falling down
and injuring the machinery.
The situation has not materially changed
during the past twenty-four hours. The
pressure is still low, and IL is still impos-
sibe to force water to the second floors of
buildings in the city. Engineer Ludington
says he still has hopes of saving the plant
but he does not promise when conditions
will be any better.
The west end pumping station is about
ready for action. None of the factories
has been forced to close as yet because of
the decreased water pressure, although all
have been greatly handicapped.
