HAVE PROPOSITION
TO REMOVE POLES
Central Union Telephone Com.
pany Writes Letter to the
Board of Works.
A JOINT POLE SYSTEM
SAY THEY WILL BEAR THE COST
OF PUTTING ALL WIRES WHERE
POSSIBLE ON THE SAME POLES

The Central Uuion Telephone Co.
has submitted proposition to the
Board Of Public Works which, if IA
vorably acted upon, will relieve the
city of number of unsightly tele.
phone poles.
In letter from the main office at
Indianapolis, the telephone company
proposes a joint pole proposition. In.
stead of having three sets of poles in
different parts of the city as it now is
the company has offered to bear the
expense of installing entirely new
poles which will afford accommodation
for the Light, Heat and Power com
pany. the Municipal Light Plant and
the Central Union wires. Each of
the two former companies will be Civ
en- two arms on which to string
their wires. The old poles and their
fixtures are to be taken down by the
telephone people and given to them
in consideration for their work. The
city electric wires will occupy the
higher positions and a clearance of
fiva feet will be between the high and
low tension wires. This joint pole
arrangement is to extend over such
routes as may be found necessary or
desirable on account of local condi-
tionS.
The Light, Heat and Power compa-
ny will probably be favorable to the
proposition, as they already have an
agreement with the city for joint
poles. This plan will remove many
of the poles which are now proving a
detriment to many properties in the
city, and instead of having three sep.
arate sets of poles there will be one
complete set.
The members of the board who have
read the offer look upon it with favor
and consider it to be fair and good
proposition to the city.

IS ARRESTED ONCE AGAIN
HUNTINGTON IN TROUBLE
Mrs. Van Zant Says that Her Son Earl
Huntington, Has Been in the Habit
of Disturbing Her and Her Neigh
bors.

Earl Huntington was arrested last
night on a peace warrant sworn out by
his mother, Mrs. Elizabeth Van Zant
Mrs. Van Zant says that Earl, who is
about % years old, has been in the
habit of getting drunk and coming to
her house and raising disturbance
until the family and neighbors have
come to fear him. The warrant was
sworn out last week when Earl went
TO his mothers house and made some
very bad threats and attempted to eX-
tort money from his mother. Not
succeeding, there he tried TO make a
raise out of his seventeen-year-old
half-brother. At one time he engag
ed in a friendly bout with Mr.. Van
Zant just to show him what he could
do to him if he interfered, so Mrs. Van
Zant says.
Huntington will be given an oppor-
tunity of presenting his side of the
case in police court this morning.

NOW DANGER OF A
GENERAL UPRISING
Strikes Are Spreading in Rus
Sia and CoSsacks are De-
Serting the Crown.
CIVIL WAR IN CAUCASUS
FROM ALL LARGE CITIES THERE
COMES REPORTS OF MAssA
cREs, DEsERTioN OF TROOPS
AND UPRISiNGS.

st. Petersburg. July 12.-With the
expected announcement of the re,
tirement OF the old cabinet and the
makeup of the new again deferred,
matters in the Russian empire are
becoming more and more critical and
even the official classes that have
heretofore declared that there was no
danger of any general uprising. are
constrained to admit now that fur
ther continuance of the present state
of uncertainty must have a most dan
gerous effect. Strikes are spreading
everywhere and the discontented
workingmen are numbering and pill
alging while even the Cossacks. who
have heretofore been loyal to the
crown, are declared TO have served
notice on their officers in many in
stances that they will no longer act
as police.
Civil War in Caucasus.
In the Caucasus state of civil war
exists and in several instances the
Cossacks have been defeated by the
peasants after desperate fighting and
both sides sustained heavy loss. So
serious are. conditions here that ur-
gent appeals for more troops have
been sent by the Governor, to the au-
thorities at st. Petersburg. but in ev-
cry instance it has been necessary to
send word that no more Cossacka
could be spared for service In the
Caucasus.
At Saratoff there has been practi.
cally continuous series of fights be.
tween the peasants and the troops In
which the latter have lost heavily.
| Because of the fierceness of the at
| tacks by the rioters "drm-dum' bull
| lets have been served out by the Of
| ficers and are being used by the
troops. During the fighting 1t is esti-
mated twenty soldiers have been Kill
| ed and twice that number wounded
while the loss to the rioters is de-
| clared to be three times these figures.
Rise Against Their Officers.
At Sebastopol the gunners in the
fortress tried unsuccessfully to SO.
cure possession of the ammunition
| chamber intending II they had sue.
ceeded TO turn the guns of the garri-
son on their Of1cerS. Inc DloI TALL
| ing, three companies of artillery mu-
| tined and at last accounts were con-
! fined in their barracks while the Off
GERS were afraid to attempt to make
| them prisoners as the loyalty of the
remaining troops in the garrison Is
seriously questioned.
| At Warsaw there has as yet been
no open outbreak, but the fight OF
| the Jews from the city continues. The
police on guard have been reinforced
by strong guard of soldiers ard a
state of sieee has been proclaimed.
All persons are kept off the streets at
| night while crowds are prohibited
gathering on the thoroughfares.
| At Odessa and Moscow there have
been number Of serious clashes be-
tween the troops and the strikers
but details are lacking. 1t Is under
| stood. however, that there were no
| fatalities resulting from the fighting
and that while numerous persons
were hurt none were fatally injured.
