meeting at once to consider the fol-
lowing propositions, viz:
1. The appoi ntment of committee
to investigate md report as to how
far this lack of construction permeates
all the asphalt paving in the city.
:. A committee on finance to solicit
funds for the purpose of prosecuting
the matter and obtaining legal counsel.

certain whether or not the councilmen
have not so far exceeded their author
ity as to Great personal liability on
their part for portion of the indebt-
edness created.
AS Il property, holder and taxpayer
who has ST omitted to these conditions
in the best pos sible spirit, feel that
Che LIMIT is reached. | am willing to
ontribute from my time and my pro-
portion OF the expense in fighting
these conditions along the line sug-
gested above. To be sure. we have a
city election in the near future. 1t is
hoped we may turn the rascals out. :"
But what will that avail us IL we allow
the impositicns of the past few years
to go by unretlressed? 1t will only
enbolden those who follow and. in a
few years, they will be doing likewise.
BY making a vivid example of those
who are now responsible for the i'm
mediate results others will be more
likely to take heed and follow closely
along the path IF equity and justice to
their constituents.
Truly yours,

ARREST A SWINDLER
Postal Authorities Say the Plan Upon
Which Lane Worked Was Similar to
a Number Of Schemes Which Have
Been Broken Up by the Federal Au-


thorites.
Chicago, JAN O1.-Federal authorities
in Chicago and Pittsburg, Pa, work.
ing in conjunction, assert that in the
arrest here of Charles A. Lane, they
have put stop to a scheme by which
innocent persons with money to invest
have been neeced out of more than $685.
900 within the past few months. Lane
who, it is said, has for some months
posed in Pittsburg as banker and
broker. in the keystone building, was
captured by Postoffice Inspectors JOS
eph Farrell of Chicago and r. A.
O'Brien of Pittsburg. Lane was ar
rested on a charge of promoting
scheme to defraud by the use of the
mails and was taken before United
States Commissioner Humphrey, where
the case was continued until today. In
default of $1,000 bonds Lane was plac-
ed in the county Jail to await his hear
ing.
According to Inspector O'Brien the
postal authorities have been receive
ing for some time complaints concern
ing the operations of Charles A. Lane
& Company. O'Brien declared that he
had made frequent visits to the office
Of the concern, but was never able to
find any member of the firm. The
only visits ever made to the postoffice
by the members of the firm, OBrien
asserts were to collect the malls bear
ing money for investment or to close a
transaction with victim, personally
solicited.
The postal authorities say that the
scheme of the Lane company was the
same as all other get-rich-quick con-
Germs. Advertisements were inserted in
many newspapers turnout the country
soliciting investments and promising
that the investor would receive enor-
nous returns. The advertisements
were we'll worded and appeared in such
good form that the authorities declare
hundred of persons in many parts of
the country were victimized.

sTRANGLE WOMAN TO DEATH.
Marie Dessanti of Buffalo Believed to
be Victim of Black Hand.

Buffalo, N Y, Jan. 10.-Marie Des-
santi, aged "a years, was found dead
by her husband yesterday in a room on
the third floor of the Terrace Park ho-
tel. Her hands and feet were tied and
she appears to have been strangled to
death. A few days ago she had in
formed neighbors that she had received
a letter from the Black Hand Society
demanding 5000 under penalty of death.
A man is said to have visited her room
Sunday night and evidence of drinking
was found yesterday. The woman had
been reported to have about $4,000 and
it was said that she was to return to
Italy shortly.

Representative Cattle Sales.
A few Of the cattle sales given out
The Horse Market.

Trade opened this week with liberal
receipts and a weaker tone The at
tendance of outside buyers is about of
proportions of week ago, but the
offerings comprise a smaller percent
age of prime drafters and expressers
than featured the initial opening last
week. There were liberal orders in
the market waiting execution for log
gers for eastern demand. The re-
ceipts, while liberal, included too
many plain farm offerings, for which
the demand is not yet urgent. The
heavy run of out-of-season offerings
has weakened the tone of the market,
as too many arrivals are not partic-
ularly wanted by dealers, which makes
a difficult clearance of plain kinds
without concessions from last week.

prime Boston chunks hold steady at
nominally the following prices.

AssAILs ARMOUR & co.

Witness Springs Sensation at Inter-
state Commerce Hearing.
Washington. Jan. 1O.-The interstate
commerce committee of the house con-
tinued It's hearings on bills to further
restrict the carriers. George f. Mead
u member of the National League of
Commission Merchants of Boston, and
also of the Boston's Fruit Growers ex-
change, took the stand and complained
of the inroads made into his business
by the So-called private car lines.
These lines. he said, have grown to
such an extent that the car line COM
pany known as Armour & Co., prac-
tically controlled the price Of perish
able food commodities in this country.
No line Of business, he declared, per-
haps, suffered SO much from the exc
cution Of the abuse of private car lines
than those which he represented He
maintained that Armour & Co., were
operating without license, and, he said.
he could see why they had the right
TO prey upon our business and hold us
up by the throat. and demand whatever
they see fit
These private car pirates" he de-
clared. can break men, firms and even
statutes by their traffic rates"
A general discussion followed re-
garding the powers invested i'm the in
terstate commerce commission to fix
rates by the Cooper Quarles bill.
Replying to a question by Mr.. Mann.
Mr.. Mead said that on account Of the
freight rates. business interests OF the
country We're not only on the point of
ruin. but that very many business
houses had been ruined.
Asked by Mr.. Lowering If the rail-
roads would welcome a change regard
ing contracts for refrigerating cars.
Mr.. Mead replied that he believed they
would. as thereby they would be freed
from the domination of Armour 4 Co.
who, he said, held over the railroads
the threat to destroy their business.
They need protection against the
highwaymen that hold them up" in
terjected Mr.. Adamson of Georgia. the
witness replying that Armour 4 Co.
used their monster business as Il
threat to force exclusive contracts. Mr..
Mead declared that there We're many
refrigerating car companies with cars
that could do the work the Armour
cars could not do" and yet. he said.
the shippers of peaches and fruit from
Georgia could not use those cars be-
cause Armour & Co. had the exclusive
contract.
Hearing is Postponed.
Chairman Knapp of the interstate
commerce commission yesterday post
poned until next Monday the hearing
at Chicago in the case involving allie
cations of rebates granted by the At
Gibson, Topeka 4 Santa Fe railroad

This action was taken in order to give
President Ripley of the Santa Fe road

a Weak
Stomach

Indigestion is often caused by over
eating. An eminent authority says
the harm done thus exceeds that from
the excessive use of alcohol. Eat all
the good food you want but don't over
load the stomach. A weak stomach
may refuse to digest what you eat.
Then you need good digestant like
Kodol. which digests your food with
out the stomach's aid. This rest and
the wholesome tonics Kodol contains
soon restore health. Dieting unneces-
sary. Kodol quickly relieves the feel
ing Of fulness and bloating from
which some people suffer after meals.
Absolutely cures indigestion.
