Police Are of a Different Opin-
ion and Judge Converse and
Chief Bailey Declare 1t Must
Be Obeyed.
EDMUND CROSIER WAS
FINED IN CITY COURT,
In Some Places the Streets
Have Been Made Unfit for a
Woman to Pass and Maui
seating Even to the Men.

That's a contemplate ordinance"'
said City Attorney I. J. Study this
morning in police court, when he refer
red TO the one passed by the city coun-
Gil several years ago. whose provisions
made it 4 punishable offense to spit on
the sidewalks. He had just acted As
prosecutor in the case of Edmund
Crosier. who was arrested Thanksgiv-
ing night for splitting on the sidewalk
in front OF the Greek candy store ON
Main street, and who was fined 81 and
costs by Judge Converse for his deed.
Just on what grounds Study thinks the
ordinance contemplate, no one could
ascertain, for as soon as the case was
ended Study left the CITY hall.
Police officers and Judge W. c. Con-
verse think differently in regard to
the splitting ordinance. Judge Con
verse says that as long as the ordi-
nance is on the docket it has to be tn
forced and Chief OF Police Jesse Bal
ley makes the assertion that it will be
obeyed to the letter.
Says II Is a Good One.
Judge Converse. in speaking of the
Crosier case. says that the ordinance
is q good one since it protects the
sidewalks against being DECORATED with
infected sputum. which may be after
ward picked up by women's skirts and
} communicated to their systems. The
practice of splitting on the sidewalks
! is filthy one. Members of the Rich
mond police department are waging i
war against sidewalk splitting and f.
will not cease until the men of Rich
mond have been trained to walk to the
curb and expectorate in the streets.
Several sections of the downtown
streets in past months have been
| filthy with tobacco spit. Some OF
these sections have been unfit for a
woman to pass and In many instances
even men are led to cross the street to
avoid the nausea which the filth inva-
riably causes. This condition has
been complained of so often the police
! in conjunction with the city board of
health. decided to act forcibly.
! Since the city has posted notices
warning people to not spit on the side
walks, and the matter given space In
the public press. police and board ot
health officers claim there is no excuse
for the practice and they will act &C
cordingly. Patrolmen have been ask
ed to act discreetly when a man ia
caught splitting on the sidewalk.
There has been much complaint
against the enforcement Of the ordi-
nance. but no heed has been paid 10
this. There is no doubt but that the
general public wants the ordinance
strictly enforced.

4 Movement to Make Two

SIGNATURES SECURED TO

Decision Rendered at Terre
Haute Makes More Trouble
For the Saloon Keepers
Movement in Illinois.

New Castle, Ind. Nov. 29.-Iemper-
ance Will see big day OF success in
this city today, when two remonstranc-
ss, which make two townships dry
and close fifteen saloons in the next
year through their agency will be
filed. With the temperance people of
this city working on q remOnstrance,
the only township in the county where
no effort to oust the saloons had been
made was Jefferson township. Sev-
eral days after the campaign was COM
1nenced in this oity and township the
temperance people of Jefferson town
ship set to work in a quiet way TO get
Ths remonstrance, with 137 names
signed, the majority Of the voters of
the township, has been prepared and
will be fled with the county auditor
today. There are two saloons In Sui
phur Springs owned by Noah Warner
and Jobe Haskett. These made a fight
against the remonstrance at the outset
but finally saw the futility Of the eff
fort, ceased their efforts and Surren-
dered themselves to the inevitable.
coming before the commissioners next
Monday, but 1t will be defeated by the
remonstrance. In this city it is eN-
pected to file the remonstrance late
xhis evening.

EXTENSION OF TIME
TO REMOVE POLES
No Action Is Taken Toward
Complying With the Or
dinance.
VIEWS OF Mr.. MERRILL.
HOME TELEPHONE COMPANY
HAS ITS WIRES NEARLY ALL
REMOVED FROM MAIN STREET,
BUT POLES REMAIN AS BEFORE

In all probability there will be an
extension of time for the removal OF
poles from Main street. The Ordinan-
ce goes into effect Dec l, with a pro-
vision of thirty days in which poles
must be removed President Merrill
OF the board of public works. gives
it as his opinion that at the meeting
of council next Monday night the mat
ter would be brought ND with a sug-
gestiOn for an extension Of time. It
would be a physical impOssibility to
COMPLY with the law within the time
stipulated by the ordnance.
No move of any kind toward COM
plying with the ordinance has heon
made except by the Home Telephone
corloany. II has removed all its wires
from Main street excaOt two or three
toll lines, and they will soon be TAX
en- away The wires have been put
in c0nduits IN the first alley north
Of Main street. The Home company
made the change. not especially on ac-
connt of the city ordinance, but be-
cause Of the installation of it's new
system. which made +he change an adj
VISIBLE one. The Home company re-
moved no poles as bv a Joint agree
mont may revert to the Light, Heat
& Power company.

FORMER PASTOR IS
WITNESS IN TRIAL
Tells of Conversation That
He Had With Mrs. Anna
Bradley.
HAD OFFERED HER ADVICE.
TOLD HER NOT TO APPEAR TOO
ANXIOUS TO MARRY BROWN
AND THAT SHE COULD NOT
BLUFF HIM-AiDS IN DEFENSE.

Washington. Nov. 29-Rev, David
Utter, Mrs. Bradley's former pastor ut
Salt Lake City, testified in her trial to-
day. He said he called on Mrs Bradley
and talked about her marriage 10
Brown. He expressed belief that
Brown would not marry her. He told
her not to seem anxious as that would
place her at a disadvantage. She said
it was because of the children and that
when a gun is pointed at him he will
accede. He told her she could not
bluff Brown. She said Arthur Brown
was a coward at heart. He asked her
if it came to the point, would she do
it? She replied, of course not" lie
did not understand she would do the
act herself, but that her father or
brother might. The last half of DR.
Utters testimony was not favorable to
the government.

COMBINATION MADE
AGAINST W|hBURN
Can He Prove His Innocence
On Friday, the Thirteenth
Of the Month.
FREEMAN is NOT SCARED.
LUCKY DATES THE DECISIONS
ARE INVARIABLY FAVORABLE
TO DEFENDANTS IN THE CASES.

When Julias Winburn, Colored. was
this morning on the charge of burglary
and entered plea of not guilty, Judge
Henry c. Fox postponed the hearing of
the case to December Is, which date
falls on Friday. Winburn WINGED.
but the court attaches smiled broadly.
Winburn apparently did not fancy the
idea of being tried on a day around
which hangs so much popular super.
stition. Attorney Perry Freeman
who will aid Winburn's cause. says he
is not in the least worried by the date
as he believes he can aquit his man
then in preference to all other times
He says decisions handed down in the
Wayne circuit court on days which are
generally stunned because they are
termed unluclly, invariably have been
in favor of the defendant. There is
some speculation as to whether Win.
burn will break the old precedent by
being convicted. Winburn is accused
of committing burglary at the saloon
of Henry Shell. on North Twelfth
street. 1t seems that Winburn is de
pending much on brother residing AT
kokomo to aid him financially in the
defense. His brother will arrive In
Richmond today and make preliminary
arrangements for the hearing.

MASONS TAKING PART.
Record Of the State in This Regard ia
Broken.

ElwoOd, Ind, Nov. 29-FOr the first
time in the history of fraternities in
the state, SO far as the records show.
the MasonS have taken an active part
in a fight against the granting of a
liquor license. Possibly no lodge has
ever been called to confront the sort
of proposition that exists here. Quin-
cy lodge occupies new home and the
quarters for many years which shelf
cred the organization Is partly owned
by the lodge and the lower floor by
Mat Moore Of Anderson.
Recently n districting ordinance was
passed. obliginG all saloons to come
from the factory districts to the cen
trail portion of the city. The room un-
der the old Masonic hall was rented.
Norm Benner, horseman and saloon
keeper, secured it, and had applied
for license. He would have likely OBJ
tanned license had not the Masons
joined with the temperance workers
at joint meeting and aided in the
work of securing signatures to a re-
monstrance. The laws of the order
prohibit such tenants.

Arthur II. SDurlOck, the former Ad

who so brutally assaulted his wife Oh
Railroad street several days ago and
ing near the home Of Daniel McManus
police sergeant, will be arraigned in
police court Saturday morning, and
Notwithstanding the strong defense he
claims to have arranged, it is thought
he will be dealt harshly with by the
court. Spurloch since his confinement
has been reticent and uncommunica-
tive. He will not speak of the Incl

Sergeant McManus, who made the
arrest under rather exciting condi-
tions hopes the court will deal with
the man as he thinks he should be
dealt with. McManus' feelings are
not the only ones that are perturbec
by Spnrlock's vicious assault. The
circumstances were revolving and
cOwardly in the extreme, the officers
at the city building assert
Spurlock had a quarrel with his
wife. Later he sent two bogus tele
phone messages TO MS wife and anoth
er woman. The first said he had been
injured under a Pennsylvania train al

few minutes later, informed his wife
that he was then dead. Spurlock sent
both. His wife secured rig and was
going to him When he met her on Rail

beating her in brutal fashion. Sever

her. When the assault was later re
newed Sergeant McManus took hand

That the recent announcement or
Treasurer Benz. Myrick that he would
use every means lawful TO collect poll

Wayne county who are in arrears. has
had very stimulating effect upon
those who are delinquent is evident.
During the past week many men who
have not paid such taxes in several
years, visited Mr.. Myrick and made
settlement. One man in arrears for
sixteen years, voluntarily paid all and
another paid for ten years. One old
cOlOred man made settlement for four
years tax.
Treasurer Myrick has received a
communication from the state beard
of tax commissioners at Indianapolis
asking that every known means be us

who have been neCle rtfll. The board
Of tax commissioners lays especial
emphasis upon the plan Of filing civil
suit through tie prosecutor. who may
garnishee or attach TIE wares of men

ever, is inclined to be fair-minded
about the matter and has made the
statement that he would notify all
men that they were behind in poll and
