The scene in the sick ward was
dramatic, only the doctors, the sheriff,
D. J. McGillis and two newspaper men

foot Of the cot, and Muller's eyes
flashed brightly in his pale face as he
rose slightly and said with hiss,

said:

wrong; never shot you, for had no

.FAVORS COVERED PATROL
OPINION OF W.P. O'NEAL
Not be Compelled to Ride Through
the Streets of City in Plain View of
Everyone.

w. p. ONeal of the Board of Pub
lie Works thinks that a cover should
be placed on the patrol wagon. All OF
the police officers are of the same
opinion but there is a hindrance to
carrying this plan into effect. Owing
to the fact that the stable in the rear
of the city building where the patrol
wagon and ambulance are kept is so
low that if top was placed on the
wagon, new quarters would have to be
arranged for or the height of the
wagon considerably lowered.
Every unfortunate that is forced to
take an involuntary ride in the
BLACK maria breads the trip worse
than confinement in the Jail. They
are exposed to the view of the curious
on the streets and they experience the
same feelings as man who is exposed
in pillory.
1T is bad enough to have to arrest a
man but is is shame to force him to
ride through the streets of the city in
a patrol wagon which does not protect
him from the public view," said Serg-
cant McManus, and his statement was
an expression of the views of every
officer on the force. If some arrange
ment can be made by the Board SO
that top can be placed on the patrol
wagon no time will be lost in making
the Improvement.

NO DIRECT EFFECT HERE
RICHMOND DIVISION TRAINMEN
WILL NOT STRIKE.
Leaders Among the Men Say They
Will Stick by Company-OfficiaIs
Willing to concede.

The strike orders issued by the Off
| Gals of the Brotherhoods of Railway
Trainmen and Conductors, will have no
effect on the Richmond division of the
| Pennsylvania, although it may be in
directly affected through other divis-
| ions of the system. Local officials
state that they do not think that the
men will walk out, as the railroads at
the present time will meet almost any
reasonable terms the men ask, in or
der to keep the min the service, ow-
ing to the present conditions, which
exist all over the Pennsylvania, and
| other roads of the country. Espec-
tally is this true of the freight condi-
tons, and the reputation of the rail-
road is at stake at the present time.
The vast amount of freight on the diff
ferent divisions must be handled
promptly and successfully.
The Richmond division conductors
are well satisfied with their conditions
and under. no circumstances will they
strike if the other men walk out, as
they have been through strikes and
find that they generally terminate
with the discharge of the men, and at
the same time profit little, if anything
to those who remain in the service.
They say that the Pennsylvania rail-
road has been kind to them in the past
and at the present critical moment,
they would not walk out, and leave the
road in a rut, such as would happen
in case the trains were left for non
union railroad men to move.
ID q Iayy
said that he would not strike as he
had been through the famous strike of
'92 and '93, and was burnt to such
an extent that under no circumstances
would he obey strike orders. He
based his opinion on the same grounds
as did several Richmond division con-
ductors.
The railroad telegraphers, who are
also affected by the strike orders are
not members of the trainmens' I'M
ion, and will not strike in the event
that all the other trainmen walk out.
They also base their opinions upon
the generous manner in which they
have been handled by the Pennsylva-
MIA as a railroad corporation. The
movements of the men on the other di-
visions of the Pennsylvania and the
other railroads, are watched with ca
ger interest, among all the raili Cad
men located in Richmond.

Hacker, of the Bartholomew circuit
court, has decided that street is not
a street until it is opened for travel.
The city sought to enjoin the railway
company from putting down additio-
nal tracks across a new street which
had been ordered open by the city
council.
The railway company had laid some
additional tracks, the railway officials
alleging that the new street was mer-
ely being opened to give the Indiana
polls, Columbus & Southern traction
company way out of the city for its
Seymour extension.
The city applied for an Injunction

SCARCITY OF LABOR.
Holding back the Completion Of the
Two Big Pipe Lines from Tulsa,
!. r., to the Gulf of Mexico.

A repre- sentative of the Gulf Pipe
Line company, stated to a Palladium
reporter, that owing to the scarcity of
labor, such as tongsmen, tank build
ers, structural iron workers, telegraph
and telephone construction men,
painters, transfers, laborers for ditch
ing, ETC., the work of completing the
pipe lines from Tulsa, I. T., to the gulf
is not progressing as rapidly as it
should.
The Gulf Pipe Line Company can
give employment to an army of men
for the work as described above. The
climate in the southwest. where the
lines are being laid, is such as to make
out door work just as pleasant and
congenial in the winter as in the sum-
mer months.
We believe the great number of I'M
employed men throughout this section
would do we'll by writing the Gulf Pipe
Line company of Tulsa, l. T., for full
information, etc.

ASKS FOR A RECEIVER
John L. McCuIloch Has Brought Suit
Against Marion Tribune Pub
fishing Company.

Marion, Ind, Feb. 2S.-John L. Nc
Culloch, one of the large stockholders
in the Marion Tribune company,
which published the Marion News
Tribune, has filed suit against the
company, asking for an accounting
and for the appointment of receiver.
He alleges mismanagement of the
plant, asserting that Charles w. Ell
and Oscar E. Halderman, who have
held a majority of the stock since 1902
have elected themselves annually as
directors, that Charles w. Halderman
has been named as president, Eli Hal
derman vice president, and Oscar E.
Halderman, secretary and treasurer,
from year to year. MiSmanagement
is alleged, the complaining stockhold-
er asserting that no dividends are de-
clared and that the controlling stock
holders are taking up the profits in sal
aries. 1t is alleged that courtesy
for railroads and traction
companies to the extent of $1,000
worth a year has been given, the Off
GERS using the transportation and pass
es for their personal use and render
ing no account to the stockholders.

GOODOFFER FROM HENLEY
WILLING TO GIVE $4,000
In Case that Nine Other Men in the
City Can Be Secured to Give a Like
Amount to the Y. M. c. A.-The
Committee Encouraged.

Workers i'm the cause of the Y. M
.. A., are decidedly happy now, all
occasioned by the statement by NJ. c.
Henley, to a committee which called
upon him, that he would be one of
ten men to give $4,000 to the cause in
this city. Mr.. Henley stated that the
y. NJ. G.. A. cause in Richmond is a
good one and all should lend their aid
and assistance to the work. The
committee which called upon him is
now actively engaged in securing the
names of nine other Richmond citizens
who will contribute $4,000 each and
they are confident that at least that
many men in the city will show their
Willingness to aid the cause, by max
ing donations of that size.
In addition to the amount pledged by
Mr.. Henley, the members of the execu-
tive committee reported thirty-nine
subscriptions amounting TO $1,546,
making the total fund up to date
$31,S72.5O 1t is hoped that enough
can be raised before tonight to make
the amount an even $4,000.
Would Be Poor Distinction.
An interesting fact was brought to
light yesterday, in that If Richmond
fails in raising 100000 for which the
members of the committees are work
ing, it will be the only city out of
twenty-five during the past year,
which did not raise the stipulated
amount set. In many cities the do
nations have by far exceeded that for
which the people were working.
The idea of failure, however, is not
entertained by the members of the
committees, and the work will be
pushed to the finish.

a very enthusiastic and encouraging
rehearsal of the May Festival chorus

Coliseum and the work done showed
that both numbers are well under way.
Most of the time was spent on
Brahms Requiem which is the
most difficult of the two numbers.
''The Swan and the Skylark,' howev-
and practically has been learned, as
far as the mechanical memorizing of
the notes. Only the different standings
and Interpretation work remain.
During the rehearsal. Lee b. Nus

twenty voices. Three of the soloists
of this choir are the same that will be

GENERAL TRACK ELEVATION.

RumOr has it in Pennsylvania rail-

soon begin the long cherished idea of
track elevation over it's entire sys-

engineers in the United States have

uation in several of the larger cities,
and it is expected that some visible
