POLICE IN AN CART SQUAD"
Cleveland viii Try to Rid the City
of Improper Pictures-Flne
Points to Settle
Special to The Herald.

Special to The Herald.
LOGANSPORT, Ind, Oct. 3O-T. M.
of Police Kohler has created an art
squad" consisting of a half dozen po-
licemen in plain clothes, to rid the city
of obscene pictures. Schooled by Koh-
Ter to distinguish between the decent
and the indecent, the squad is expected
to peep into all picture machines and
visit all stores where pictorial photo
cards are on exhibition.
But there's the rub" said the chief
tonight. 1--WE shall find 1t difficult
sometimes to tell what is art and what
is obscene. Don't ask me about the
matter; read the statute. A pictures
got to be mighty raw before we can
arrest any one."
The general public, Kohler thinks,
might be shocked before any law is
violated.

encountered and the task of making
exact distinction would fail of fair and

All sorts of complaint would arise
among the men and he, therefore,
strongly opposed the worthy plan of
President Calhoun
Cornelius denied yesterday that Cal
houn had spoken to him of giving bo-
muses. TO the men. He said the COM
pany's president had merely sought
TO ascertain the names of the men who
were specially deserving of commenda-
tion and that he had answered that to
do so with absolute fairness would be
impossible. The unions president had
therefore advised Calhoun to abandon
any such scheme.
The chief of the carmen asserted that
nothing was said about awarding G
money bonuses. and added that he be-
lieved such story was started in the

This move on the part OF the United
Railroads is looked upon as the last
technical incident in the scheme TO
legislate the men completely out OF
employment and place them beyond
the pale of arbitration.
During the day 1T was rJ9mored that
service on the California and Gearv
street railroads would be discontinued
at s o'clock. Representatives of both
roads were in conference with the
strikers and declared that they were
ready to accept any terms which the
United Railroads was prepared to
make.
This meant as a matter of course a
tie-up of eboth roads. but some time
was gained by the fact that the direct
crate of both roads need a few davs
for final action. These roads will con-
tinue in operation therefore for some
days

Calhoun SaidtoE lave Offered to
Donate $4,000 to Carmen.

It has developed in the present con-
troversy that after the great fire Pres
ident Calhoun sought to show some
recognition Of the faithfulness dis
played by the carmen in saving the
property OF the company and in exert
ing themselves IN restoring the car
service Calhoun announced that he
was ready to distribute over $4,000 to
those employees who had done loyal
service. but it is said he was dissuaded
from doing so by President Cornelius
because of the dissension that would
ensue among the men. it being impos-
sible to measure out rewards with ex-
act justice.
hcun made an effort TO gain from the
records and his subordinates the names
of the men who had not fed the COM
pany's predicament and had been active
in preserving its interests But neither
the records nor the division superin-
tendents AFFORDED intelligent informa-
ton as to what the respective en-
pIoyes had done. Calhoun had deter
mined to expend sum exceeding $780,
600 in bonuses. and when the company
could not designate TO him what men
should be rewarded he appealed to Cor
neIius to give him the desired informa-
fion.
The president OF the union pointed
out. however. that It would be impos-
stble TO discriminate justly among the
men. Some had neglected the company
because of higher duty to dependent
ones. Many had performed services

Thornwell Mutually, assistant to
President Calhoun, also declared that
the offer of the corporation to arbi-
trate the differences was the final
offer that it had to make. I'VE are
going ahead to run the cars, and we
will run them, too he asserted. with
a positive nod of the head.
While the officials of the company
refused to discuss the matter, it is
known that they are determined to
have the cars running before the end
Of the week. This is the best assur-
ance that can be given an anxious
public at the present time. 1t is prob
able that the attempt to operate the
lines will be undertaken earlier in the
week, it even being rumored that the
company will try to start some cars
today, but the plans for breaking the
strike are of such proportions that it
cannot be stated with certainty that

No signs of weakening were exhib-
tied at the headquarters of the United
Railroads yesterday. President CAL
houn and his assistant, Thornwell Null
lally declared that they had done their
best to bring about settlement and
had exhausted every resource in this
direction. Their efforts are being di-
rected to carrying out determination
to have the cars in operation again be-
fore the end of the present week at
the latest.
Il regret exceedingly that affairs
have come to such pass that I must
ask my men to turn in their badges

Calhoun. over rs per cent of the car

Carmen Unwilling to Accept
Mayor Schmiz as Mediator.

The carmen refused yesterday to re-
turn to work unless they are granted
some concession that will guarantee to
them a settlement of their difficulties
upon the lines which they have indi-
Gated to the United. Railroads. The
men met early In the morning and re-
fused point blank to accept the pro-
posal of President Calhoun to return
to work and, after the cars had been
set In motion, to arbitrate the ques-
tions of wages and hours. Further
than this the striking carmen an

WANT SOMETHING DEFINITE.
The main obstacle to the operation
of the street cars is the desire of the
men to receive something more definite
than promise from President Cal
houn before they resume work The
men insist that the wage question is
not matter of arbitration. Calhoun
has practically admitted that his
workmen are worth SO day.
This wage the men demand before
they return to work. President CAL
houn declares they must return before
any concession Is made. 1t is be-
cause this question cannot be settled
amicably that the entire city is para
lyzed in its energies. After the car
men had finally declared their refusal
to return to work. President Calhoun
issued an order commanding them to
