ton OF weathered oak When It was
decided to rebuild the church Pastor
Adams had but 5000 at his command,

was so successful that he was enabled
to give out contracts amounting In the
aggregate to $4,000. and when the
church opens today all indebtedness
except about $4,000 win have been paid.
The pastor expects to raise that
amount In a short time. The dedication
of the new church will be at 2 O'Clock

said Mr.. Adams last week. was on the
Sunday before the confiagration and at
the service 1 made an appeal to the
congregation stating that there was
need for new carpets. different kinds
of glass in the windows and several
other things. The sum of $4,000 was
pledged and almost every one of these
pledges has been made good Every
thing I wanted removed disappeared
and everything I asked for has been
supplied, but I had no idea that the
change would be brought about in such
a strenuous manner"

Although practically all Of the

have either gone into bankruptcy, or
become extinct through other chan
nels. 1t is thought likely by the pros
ecutor that when the cases are flnal-
ly disposed of he will be able TO get
a small per cent. OF the amounts
for which he asked judgment.
The prosecutor states that the
stockholders OF the companies will.
In all probability, be declared liable
under the double liability law. Many
of them are still engaged in business
OF some kind. and would be able to
pay their assessments, so tina. it is
probable that Marion county will be
reimbursed In that way.

ly every one Of the concerns pro-
ceeded to go out of business, file petit
tions in bankruptcy and take other
steps to shuttle out of existence.

the prosecutor today. by this con-
certed movement. the bridge trust has
ben broken up, and there is now
little If any Illegal or unfair bidding
being done on bridges in any part
OF the state"
In binging these suits, the prose-
cutor has gone to an expense of more
than 800. all of which will have to
be paid out of his own pocket should
he fail to obtain judgment.
The Marion Bridge company, which
was one of the defendant concerns,
was In reality made up OF only one
man, w. II. Lyons. Since these
suits were started, Mr.. Lyons has
taken his departure and 1t is not
likely that any judgment can be OBJ
tained against him.
At Bellefontaine, Thursday, the
Icircuit court reinstated all of the
bridge company cases, which were
thrown out several months ago by
Judge Dow on the grounds that the
prosecutors failed to secure costs.
The suit which Prosecutor Clark, on
behalf Of Marion county. brought
'sainst the Bellefontaine Bridge
company, was among this number.
He sued for $4,000.
Clark's case was among those rein
stated and the proceeding will now
be carried through. Although the
plant of Bellefontaine concern has
ben destroyed by fire and the COM
pany has practically disbanded, Pros
ecutor Clark hopes to recover per
cent. of the amount for which he
sued. Clark says that up until the
time Judge Dow dismissed his suit,
he had never been asked to secure the
costs
