SCHOOL HACK CASE
WILL Be APPEALED
Supreme Court Will Decide If
Student Must Walk to
The Wagon.
TRUSTEE ARGUES EXPENSE
DECLARES CHILDREN HAVE BUT
SHORT DISTANCE TO TRAVEL
POINT AT ISSUE is OF INTER-
EST OVER THE STATE.

indianapolis, Oct. 1.-THE supreme
court will be asked to say whether the
Lawrence township wagon which hauls
children to the Oaklandon school
should go half a mile out of its way
to get Esther Smith, a pupil of the
school, or whether she should walk
that half mile.
Charles c. Lyle, trustee of that
township. has prepared an answer in
the suit of Charles C. Smith, father of
the little girl in which he tells his
side of the situation as he sees it,
Judge Harvey will rule in few days
and the case will then go to the SUI
preme court whichever way he de-
cides. The father sued to force tht,
trustee to send the wagon to the Smith
home to get and to deliver his child.
A week ago Judge Harvey overruled
a demurrer in support of which the
attorney for the trustees showed that
to go after each child and deliver him
to his home at night would result in
the necessity for an additional wagon,
and that the township would thus be
called upon to spend much additional
money. But the judge overruled that
the safety and the comfort of the chill
dren were involved and that these
items should be considered before the
item of expense.
Delivered Near Homes.
In his answer the trustee says that
as matter of fact all the children OF
the school that was abandoned under
the new law would be delivered al
points near their homes in time tC
reach home before dark, even in the
dead of winter.
He says that he mapped out a route
for the wagon in which the Smith sir
rides and that the route runs through
the middle of the school district ir
which the school was abandoned be
cause of the poor attendance. The
route was so planned he says, that
of mile to walk to get to the wagon
and some of them had that far to go to
get to the old school house.
The trustee says that the town.
ship has three districts that were
abandoned under the new law, and that
II the wagons had to go to the homes
of all the children the number of wag
ons would have to be doubled. and
that the expense involved would be ar
excessive and unnecessary burden or
the taxpayers of the township TIC
expect to go to all the homes with one
wagon for each abandoned school dis
Arict, he says, would mean that some OF
the children would have to be in the
wagon five or six hours each day.
Speaks of Smith Case.
AS to the Smith case in particular
the trustee said that the road owe,
which the girl would walk for less
than half a mile is good. and that she
would at all times be in full view of he,
parents as she went to and returned
from the wagon.
Just such questions as are involved
in this suit have been raised in ma
1orfty Of the thousand townships al
the state as the direct result of the new
law providing for the abandonment q
poorly attended schools and the trans
fer of children so that the action il
this case will be followed with grea
interest by thousands of people in In

ABE RUFF PLEADS GUILTY.
Ex-Friseo Boss" Admits Charge: Of
Extortion.

San Francisco.-Abraham Ruef, bet
ter known as Abe Ruef, the acknowl-
edged adviser of Mayor Schmitz and
once the recognized dictator of mu-
nicipal affairs in San Francisco, plead
ed guilty to the charge of extortion
in Judge. DUNES court Wednesday.
Sentence will be pronounced upon him
two weeks hence.
After private conference with his
four attorneys in Judge DUNES pr1-
vate chambers Wednesday afternoon,
and after they had withdrawn from
his case because of the resolution he
had taken to change his plea ana
avoid trial, Ruef, to the utter aston
ishment of the prosecution, arose in
court and announced in a dramatic
address that, after long and earnest
consideration, he had determined to
withdraw his plea of not guilty and
enter plea of guilty. He asked that
the jury be dismissed and the trial
abandoned. He declared that his
sole motive in accusing himself in
open court was to save the lives of
those who are nearest and dearest to
him, his aged father and mother, his
maiden sister and niece, who, he
says could not stand the strain. of a
long trial. =.

HARTMAN T[AlID
WALL STREET KING DENOUNCED
AS RAILROAD WREckER.
PROSECUTION IS AHEAD
Report Of Special Attorneys PREPARED
For Interstate Commerce Com.
mission Calls Huge Deals
~~~ ILLEGAL.

/ New York.-An extract of the inter.
state commerce commission findings
| on It's investigation of the Harri-
man railroad combination was made
public Wednesday, and it is said that
the report is by far the most sensa,
tional ever put out by the commission.
1t Is stated that the commission has
found that railroad competition has
been choked of entirely in an area
equal to one-third of the United
States, and that in this area Harri.
man is absolute master; that Harri-
mans contracts with the Rock Island,
Southern Pacific, the Santa Fe, the H.
linois Central and the San Pedro
roads are In violation of the antitrust
acts and recommends that the attor-
ney general proceed against them:
that the purchase of the shares of one
railroad by another was a bad practice
that ought to be stopped by law; that
there should be new and effective
laws to prevent imitation of securities
like that in the Alton organization:
that. the profits of the great railroads
OF the far west are being used to buy
stock and control systems in the east,
| instead of building more roads for the
development of the west.
Attorneys Frank B. kellogg and
Charles A. Severance, who wrote the
report for the commission, find that
the Hartman reorganization of the Al
| ton was lone of the most remarkable
| cases of manipulation and stock wa
tering ever known" and they demand
that laws be passed which shall stop
such practices in future.
| The report concludes that Hartman
now has absolute control of the ILL
| nois Central and that he is so power
full in the Santa Fe that he has been
able to stop all competition between
it and his roads.
1t is declared that the combination
| of the Union and Southern Pacific sys-
tenn has been so powerful as not only
% suppress all competition, but to pre-
vent the building of the San Pedro
| road from Salt Lake to Los Angeles
as an independent line. The independ-
ent railroad, in the great empire DOM
| mated by Hartman, is found to be i'm
possible. The report of the COM
mission will be sent to Attorney Gen.
eral Bonaparte in few days.
In view of the well-knowp attitude
| Of the administration toward the Har-
rfman combination, no doubt is enter
tanned that series of great suits will
be instituted in the immediate future
to dissolve the different agreements,
contracts. and stockholding arrange
ments by which the Union Pacific
holds control of many of it's proper
ties.

'lE Of MINNESOTA,
The State Fair,


Minneapolis The heavy work I'M
der contemplation at the Minnesota
State Fair grounds was forwarded at
a special meeting Of the board of
managerv, held at the secretary's
Office, when preliminary plans for
new Poultry building and the Dairy
building were examined and the sew-
erage system was outlined.
Mr.. Alban Of Thori, Alban & Fish.
er, the architects of the two new
buildings, explained the preliminary
plans and discussed details with the
board members. As q result of the
conference the plans will be altered
in some respects and specifications
will be drawn ut once. In a general
way the Dairy Building will be about
ITO by $50 feet in size and the Poultry
Building 16o by 100. Both will be OF
brick and of simple though attractive
design.
A. R. starkey, engineer in charge
OF the st. Paul sewers, appeared be-
fore the board and explained plans
for the sewerage of the grounds. He
recommended project for pumping
the fair grounds sewage through a
special pipe line to the sewer at Prior
avenue and will prepare detailed plans
for this work as we'll Is for system
for the grounds proper. The depart.
ment will do this for the fair grounds
at the bare cost of the draughtmen's
work. It is probable that specifica.
tions will be ready for the sewer
work in ten days.
AS the building plans will be ready
about the same time several large
contracts will be let shortly and the
grounds will be very busy with nu.
merous gangs of men at work by June
1st.
After disposing of the Office bust.
ness the board inspected the work in
progress on the fair grounds-the
grading about the grand stand and
speed barns and the new Manufact,
urers building.

PS,knolpal Events Gathered In the
Old Scandinavian Countries

1t must be admitted that both Sweden
and Norway would like to control the
Islands OF Spitzenbergen Swenska
Dagbladet states that Foreign Minister
isvolsky, of Russia, being questioned
oy certain foreign ambassadors as to
Russ1as position on that matter, de-
clared that Russia was willing to let
Norway establish jurisdiction oyer the
Islands. In spite of the good authority
Tor this news it should be taken with
reservation. Still this is perhaps what
might be expected. 1t stands to reason
that Russia would rather see the is
lands under Norwegian than under
Swedish or international control, or
was the whole story set in motion by
interested parties merely as a feeler?

The Danish state railways seem to

figures are not known at this writing.
1t really looks as II the government
OF Denmark is planning a military al
lance with Germany. Our authority
on this highly important subject is
Wort Land, Conservative Danish
newspaper. The statements made by
the paper are sufficiently plain and
frank. The paper first points to the
probability of a war between Germany
and England. In such war England
will blockade the German harbors, and
she may be expected to- choose Den
mark as a basis for her operations It
must be the aim of Denmark to pre-
vent such an eventuality. A strong
naval station must be established some
where among the islands of Eastern
Denmark, and the number of the coast
defense cruisers must be increased
from to 6. and that of the torpedo
boats from 80 to 40. The defenses of
Copenhagen must also be perfected on
the sea side. The expenses connected
with such improvements would be al
most $15,000,O00. The Germans alone
would be apt to invade Denmark by
land. In return for the evident aid
which the above defenses would render
5
plan will be that the Germans shall
! leave Denmark alone so that the coun-
try will need no defenses on the land
side. We would not have devoted Sc
much space to this sensational matter
If it had not been for the high stand
ing of our authority.
There is such an overwhelming su-
perabundance of Sorensens, Jensens

tell who is who. But there is way
out OF this. BY paying one dollar and
getting the consent Of the authorities
a man may change his name. The
Swedish minister to Copenhagen COM
planned the other day that many of the
names adopted by ordinary Danish
mortals are names which for centuries
past have been illustrious in the his
tory of Sweden. The Danish minister
of justice Immediately took notice. OF
the complaint and instructed the Dan
ish authorities to be a little more dis
eliminating than before in bestowing
new names upon members of the SEN
family.
