HANLY IS GIVEN ADVICE
Friends Caution Against an
Extra Session.
UNWISE BUSINESS MOVE

Indianapolis. March 1.-the close
political friends of Governor Hanly
are urging him to abandon any idea
he may have of calling the members
of the state legislature together in
special session. Two or three of his
friends, it is understood, nave talked
to him very plainly in the last two Or
three days.
While it is known that the Govern.
or is much dissatisfied with the ap-
preparation BILL it is not believed now
that he will insist in bringing the leg
islature back to the city.
1t has been pointed out to the execu.
tive that he himself is largely respon.
sible for the condition of the appro-
priation bill. In its extraordinary
haste to adjourn Monday, the house
accepted the senate amendments to
the bill without objection. Among
these amendments was an item OF
$25, 900 to be expended in making In
diana known at the jamestown Expo
sition.
1t is this item that is particular
ly odious to Governor Hanly, and 1t
has been feared he would veto the
appropriation bill on account of this
contemplated expenditure of State
funds.
When the appropriation bill reached
the house Monday it was at a time
when the Republican leaders were
about to bring about an adjournment.
Governor Hanly's own friends in the
legislature watched the clock while
the amendments We're being read. 1t
was understood generally that the ear
ly adjournment of the house had the
sanction of the Governor.
The closest personal friends of the
governor declare they do not know
what he proposes to do about the bill
Men who believed they knew the gov
ernor like a book confess they are up
in the air. They have given up trying
to handle him.
Some of the more intrepid of the
Governors friends have been pointing
out to him some of the direful results
that a special session of the legisla-
ture would bring about
To begin With, they have pointed
out the bad business Judgment of call
ing a special session of the Legisla-
ture at an expense of from $4,000 to
800, 900 to save an item of $4,000
that crept into the appropriation bill
as the result of the Legislatures
haste in bringing its session to
close.
Besides that" said a friend of the
Governor, che has been told that the
in special session would
probably pass the Farber insurance
bill over his veto, and would also re-
peal the metropolitan police law"

MEETING OF TRACTION MEN.

A meeting was held at Corners
vile Thursday night which was attend
by all those men directly interested
in the construction of the new Milton
Connersville traction line, the survey
for which has already been made. The
line has been on paper for some time
but it is the idea of the directors to
begin the work as soon as warm
weather comes. and if the finances
now promised are forthcoming.
Establishment of the road will give
Richmond and Connersville an cleo
trio connection although it will be in
roundabout circuit Just what ac-
ton was taken by the promoters last
night is not known.
With the building of the Columb bus.
Greensburg and Richmond traction
line. which is yet on paper, Richmond
and Connersville will have direct
traction connection. The develop
ments of the latter named road have
not been heard from in the past few
weeks, and just what will be done is
not known. Local men who say they
are willing to form stock company
for the promotion of the road. have
as yet heard nothing from other inter
ested parties in Greensburg and Co
lumbus. Ind. and therefore plans are
at q standstill.
