A DIFFICULT PROBLEM
indianapolis in a Quandary over Its
Bridges.

Indianapolis, April 4.-The bridge
proposition is one which las been agi-
tating Indianapolis for several months
on account of the poor condition OF
several of the structures in this city.
A new feature has been presented in
the discussion of the question on &C
count of the recent flood.
It was clearly demonstrated that
several of the new bridges over Fall
creek do not have sufficient head
way" to accommodate the great flow
of water which is sure to come down
the stream in case of a flood. How to
secure the necessary Roadway will be
a point to be determined in future
bridge construction. 1t will be diff
cult one to solve, too. The reason for
this is that the streets crossing Fall
creek are so low that the Roadway
cannot be secured. To give the head
way it will be necessary to build up
the streets at least twenty feet. Ii
this is done, however, another difficult
point is presented, for the building of
such high approaches would endanger
all property in case the creek should
overflow its banks and it could not
flow Off

London, April 4.-Reports of further
Japanese in the Yalu river region are
reaching London, but no reliable de-
tails are given. A Seoul correspon-
dent believes that the defenses of Port
Arthur have been so weakened that
the early capture of the port is to be
expected. There is little doubt, the
correspondent says, that only a mar
row passage is left, and that at the
first favorable opportunity the Japa-
nese will block the channel. The Rus
slams lave taken many 12-inch guns
out of their ships to arm the old and
new defences of Port Arthur.
The correspondent says he learns
that in the first attack on Port Ar
thur the greater part of the Japanese
torpedo boat f1otilla mistakenly follow
ed two Russian torpedo boat destroy
ers which crossed their path, and thus
failed to enter the harbor to complete
the destruction of the Russian fleet.
A correspondent at Yin Kow says
that the position there is daily becom-
ing stronger. A fortnight ago the jap
anese could have landed with compar-
alive ease, while now they will expert
ence great difficulty. The correspon-
dent says he has received trustworthy
information that the concentration of
troops along the railway has been SO
rapid that it is now impossible for the
Japanese to carry the war into Man
churia with any hope of success, and
that the most they can do is to isolate
Port Arthur and possibly Vladivostok.
Latest trustworthy reports show
that the main Russian concentration
is on the line from Lao Yang to Hal
Cheng, south of Mukden, and that ar
rivals from the north and depletions
from the Port Arthur garrison are con-
centrated there at a convenient point
for dispatch to the Yalu. There is also
a mobile force in readiness to meet
any other threatened Japanese adj
vance or landing. 1t is not easy to
form a correct estimate of the naval
situation.

Gov. Durbin Practices What
He breaches About
ArbOr Day.
PLANTS TREE HIMSELF
The Grounds of the State House

This Follows the Precedent Estab-

indianapolis, April 4.-Commemora-

precedent established by Governor
Mount, Governor Durbin planted a tree
on the lawn east of the statehouse.
Custodian w W. Huffman selected
about twenty trees for planting on
the lawn and gave the governor
the choice of the lot, a fine young ash.
Like worker in the woods the COVER

Injunction Against City.

New Albany, Ind, April 4.-The city

works. The order commands the ap-
pearance of the city in court on May
to show cause why permanent re-
straining order should not be issued

WITHOUT OPPOSITION
The Japanese Army Has Occupied
Another Town.

The Japanese Army Has Occupied
Another Town.
Toxic, April 4.-The advance guard
of the Japanese army in northwestern
Korea occupied the town of Sang
Cheng Saturday afternoon without OPP
position. Sang Cheng is on the Pekin
road, eighteen miles west of Chengju
and about forty miles south of Wiju
When the Japanese drove the Rus
SLAMS out of Chengju last Monday the
Russians withdrew in two columns,
one going over the Koak San road,
and the other over the Pekin road.
The Japanese advance from Chengju
was made very rapidly. 1t was antici-
pated that the Russians would resist
this advance, but they failed to do SO,
and now 1t is not probable that there
will be any further opposition south
Of the Yalu river.
Chengju, because of it's superior
natural surroundings, is the strongest
place between Ping Yang and Win.
Besides these natural advantages
there is an old Korean fort there,
which, had 1t been defended with
spirit, would have been hard to take.
The Japanese are gratifed at the COM
parative ease with which they drove
the Russians from this fort

Peter NiedermeIer Adds Another Muir
der to His Confessions.
Chicago, April ALMOST within the
coils of the hangman's rope, Peter
Niedermeier, one of the car-barn ban
dts, has made what he declares is a
true confession to save two other men
from the gallows and one from long
Imprisonment in the pen.
81 killed Patrick Barrett in his sa-
loon at 1915 Wallace street last May"
said Niedermeier. John Lynch and
James Summons, who are under SEN
tence of death for the crime, and also
Hugh Reilly, who has been sentenced
to the pen, are innocent. They had
nothing to do with the raid.
'I shot and killed Barrett. l make
this statement solely to save innocent
men. I have no hope for life and
do not want innocent persons to suf-
fer for what have done"
On the strength of Niedermeier's
statement the attorneys for the con-
victed men today applied for writ Of
habeas corpus.

There is one men in Indianapolis
just now who is receiving many con-
gratulations and that is Joseph b.
Healing, United States district attOr-
ney. The cause for which Mr.. Keal-
ing has received the commentator of
the people generally is the mastery
manner in which he has prosecuted
the case against the Elkhart bank
wreckers. Mr. Kealing's position has
been hard one. In prosecuting Wal
ter Brown he is attacking one of his
very best friends, yet he has done his
duty in spite of this fact, and Browns
case has been pushed as vigorously
as that against Brodrick. The fact
that Brodrick was driven to the point
of desperation so that he changed his
plea to acknowledge his guilt, speaks
of itself, and it is not hard to under
stand why Mr.. Healing has been con-
graduated.

ELEVENTH DISTRICT CONTEST
The TWO Term Idea Advanced in Ex
PLANTATION of Result.


Indianapolis, april 4.-The renomi
nation of Fred Lands on the Republi-
can ticket as the congressional candi-
date in the Eleventh district has ap-
parently set at rest all doubt on one
proposition, and that is that the peo-
Dle of Indiana generally still abide by
the opinion that man should be given
at least two nominations for this inn
portant position. The two term idea
has always appealed to Indiana peo-
pie In several of the districts for
years the rule was adhered to with
consistency that made it almost i'm
possible for a candidate to break over
it, The few congressman who did
have the temerity to seek renomina-
ton were generally turned down in a
vigorous style that did not give much
encouragement to anyone contemplate
ing asking a third term. OF late years
however, the people apparently have
grown away from the idea that two
terms are enough, and Fred Lands is
the only man at present in the delega-
tion who is not serving at least a
third term. The Lands case, how
ever, has given proof of the fact that
the people apparently believe that
while two terms may not be enough,
that a man should have at least four
years in congress. At the beginning
of the campaign Lands chances were
not very bright. AS the fight progress
ed apparently they grew worse. In
the doubtful counties Major Steele
w~n out and apparently the latter had
things coming his own way But then
sentiment changed. In the very coun-
ties where it was thought Steele would
have no opposition he lost out entirely
and Lands denomination was accom-
plished. The only reason assigned is
that the American idea of fair pay
triumphed and the voters rose to as
sert that man is entitled to two
terms. Whether Lands will find the
two-tcrm spirit too strong to over
come in case he asks third term,
remains to be seen.
