FARE IS REDUCED
ON TRACTION LINE
1t Affects Only Points That
Are Near Richmond.
TO MEET COMPETITION.

The local interurban ticket Offices
have received the new passenger tar.
iff sheets for the Richmond e. Dayton
division of the Indiana, Columbus &
Eastern traction line, and the sheets
show a change in some of the fares to
nearby cities. The fare to Eaton o..
which has been thirty-five cents will
after the new rates go into effect be
thirty cents. A number of stations
along the line show a decline of five
cents on a one way trip ticket. There
is no increase in the rates to any
points along the division.
1t is thought that since the two.
cent rate law went into effect on the
Pennsylvania, and large number of
local travellers have taken the steam
road in preference to the interurbans
the decrease In the rate Is made that
the electric road might hold the local
traffic. There is no decrease In the
rates to more distant points, only to
those towns in close proximity to
Richmond.
The new sheets go into effect April
25.

A new Navy FOR
GERMAN EMPIRE
Government Proposes TO Build
More and Bigger Ships.
Program Adopted in 1900 Found
To Be Already Out Of Date.

Berlin, Nov. 23.-The most important
measures that the government sub
nit to the Reichstag, which reassembes
today, are bills modifying the naval
programme Of 1900 and abolshing the
act which limits stock exchange
operations in futures.
The naval proposals are divided into
two parts. The first reduces the
service term of naval vessels from
twenty-five to twenty years, and the
second increases the size of battle
ships and great cruisers
The reduction of the life limit of
naval vessels to twenty years means
the building within twelve years of five
battle ships and one large cruiser more
than the number contemplated within
this period by the programme of 1900.
The total number of active ships Will
remain unchanged, but the compare
lively inefficient vessels will be re-
placed by larger and more modern ones
Germany will have built or building
nine DreadnOughtS. or war ships of a
later type, by 1913, and seventeen by
1919.
Adopting $500 to the ton as the unit
of increase, it is calculated that the
new scheme will require S15,OOO.OOO a
year more than the German navy pre-
viously has cost, or. with the projected
submarine vessels and auxiliary ships,
$17.500,000 a year more.
The new plan, if carried out, will
keep all the German ship yards capable
Of constructing the largest class of
warships busy until after 1920
The estimates of the ministry of the
interior contain the sum of $685., 900 for
improving Count Zeppelins airship,
and s5,0O0.000 for widening the Kaiser
Wilhelm Canal.

cation to Be Made When Body
Reaches Canada.

Philadelphia, Nov. 21.-Has the body

tered to be sent to ST. Thomas, Can
ada. whittier it is now enroute, and
where it is to be buried alongside of
those Of relatives.
The casket was water-soaked hut
