STORAGE ROOMS IN
RICHMOND ARE FILLED
Evidence of the Demand Exist.
ing for Houses.
FEW AVAILABLE DWELLINGS

1t is a singular fact that practically
all of the storage rooms in Richmond
are now filled with furniture. This is
significant, as it is further evidence Of
the shortage of houses, and the crying
need for such. Many people are mov-
ing to the city, but have not been able
to secure homes In view of this fact
they have taken rooms. stored their
furniture and piled request after re-
quest for suitable homes upon the
rental agencies. The demand for
houses increases every day and there
are about ten available houses in the
entire city at the present time accord
ing to reports.

Few RemonStranceS Are En-
tered Against Work That
Is Contemplated.
MANY PLANS ARE DRAWN.
A NEW RECORD WILL BE ESTA8-
LISHED I'M RICHMOND THIS
YEAR IN THE WAY OF PUBLIC
WORK.

That Richmond people are desirous
of having the best there is and are
willing to stand all assessments that
the city may be beautified. is evidenc-
ed by the large number of improve
ment plans that have been drawn by
the city engineer so FAR this year and
the comparatively few complaints or
remonstrances filed against the i'm
provements.
Although it is only June. forty i'm
provement plans have been drawn by
the engineer. while thirty-five of these
have been accepted by the board of
public works. This years record up
todate is greater than in any previous
year. Last year there were only about
thirty seven public improvements
made during the entire year and this
record was considered exceptionally
good.
On the largest public improvements
for which plans have been prepared
and accepted, not one remonstrance
has been registered This improve
ment is the $4,000 west side sewer,
for which bids will be asked Friday.
The city officials feel that a record
has been broken which means much
for the city while the property owners
seem as well pleased as do the city Of
ficials.
City Treasurer Nimrod Johnson will
be about the busiest man in the coun-
ty. when all the improvements are
completed and are approved as he will
then have to file notices with all prop
erty owners affected.

Young Man Who BrutalIy AS.
SauIted Officer Golden
Arrested tuesday.
HE COULD NOT GIVE BOND.
FlcER WINTERS AND THE PUB
Lie PREsS-MAY GET PRISON
SENTENCE.

Earl Huntington, who brutally as
saulted ex-police officer William Gold
en-. was arrested Tuesday night at
Eighth and Main streets by Officer
/ Scott Winters and was arraigned in
/ police court. charged with assault and
1 battery. On account of the numerous
witnesses that are to De summoned in
the case, it was continued until Fri
day morning. Huntington's bond was
| fixed at $500 by Judge Converse. which
bond Huntington said might just as
well been placed at a million, as far as
| his likelihood of securing it is con-
cerned
| Huntingdon asked about the possibil-
| ity of securing a lawyer and he was in
structed by the court that if he could
get a member of the Wayne county
bar to defend him, the court was very
willing to grant the right
Golden was in court. looking much
| the worse for the rough treatment he
had received. One eye partially
closed. his face mass of black and
blue spots, with here and there a scar.
and his nose larger than it's normal
size, on account of broken bone. the
former patrolman looked perfectly the
part of a willing prosecuting witness.
Huntington Threatens.
According to the police, Huntington
was too much under the influence of
liquor when arrested to resist Officer
Winters. He was also full of threats
and promised to bore Officer Winters
with bullet for taking him in charge.
In addition to this threat Huntington
made few concerning the public
press. All reporters handling the de-
tails of his trial are to be dealt with
severely. the exact manner of outlawry
not having been determined.
Prosecutor Jessup would accept no
plea from Huntington, intimating that
something more serious than mere as
sault and battery may be the charge
on which the authorities will try to
rid the suffering public of Hunting
tons presence for some time to come
The police are thoroughly disgusted
with Huntington and make nc bones
about their desire TO see him abroad
ed to the penitentiary. They declare
that he shows no signs of reformation
and is a menace to the community.
Jim Kelly, who was a party to the
assault on Golden. has not yet been
found. The latest report concerning
him is that he is at Muncie.

 Shortly before 12 o'clock last night fire was discovered in the L. R. Cart CT block, 45 and AT French street. The place was occupied by Joseph Misario and Tony Zappone. All had to hustle to get out of the way in time to escape the fire. Officer Hick- ey sent in an alarm from box 72 and the department hurried to the house and extinguished the blaze The damage to the building will amount to a few hundred dollars and perhaps $100 would come near making good the damage to the furniture. It is thought that the fire originated from a kerosene lamp.

TIE PUBLIC BE JAMMED.

That's what the trolley corpora tion seems to say to patrons on tne Baldwin street line. If you doubt us just watch the Baldwin street car leave Center scuare during rush / hour and see how they jam the whole crowd into one car and have an empty car standing at the green ana send the other empties back to the car barns. We, of course, don't un- derstand why they do business thls way, anl it really doesn't concern us. But 1t will be too late to change the program when some one loses their life or limb. The writer saw the car las. Saturday noon leave Center square and there wasn't even Changing on" room unless youd hang on to the wheals. and a car lying idle standing at the green.
