APPLY BY THE HUNDRED
Veterans Present Their Claim for Ser

Provisions of McCumber Bill.

Marion, Ind, March 4.-Under the
terms of the McCumber service pen
sion bill between five and six hundred
veterans of the Marion Soldiers Home
have applied for the pension it pro-
vides. As soon as the bill was passed
Governor George Steele, of the Sol
diers' Home, wrote Commissioner of
Pensions Warner for the blanks that
petitioners for the pensions at the
home might be accommodated. More
over, when the pension blanks arrived
Governor Steele had it announced that
all veterans could make application
through the adjutant's office at the
home without any cost to them. This
resulted in great rush of business at
the adjutants office, and although Ad-
jutant Stuart MCGOWAN and his assist
ants have lent themselves willingly
to his work, it has, in addition to their
usual duties, swamped them.

Chicago, ILL.,, March 4.-Acuteness
was eliminated from the railroad labor
situation this morning by the appoint
ment by the managers of the forty-two
western roads, of a committee to con-
fer with the railway trainmen tomor-
row. Last week the railroads deliv-
cred an ultimatum to the effect that
they would grant the trainmen ten
per cent increase instead of the Is per
cent they demanded. This was not
satisfactory to the men. Their COM
mittees left Chicago to order a vote
on the adyisability of strike The
railroad managers changed their at
titude and decided to reopen negotia-
tions with the unions. This will be
done as soon as the managers COM
mittee can be organized.
The conductors order is now taking
referendum vote to decide whether
its members will accept the ten per
cent increase offered by the roads Re-
ports of the unions declare that the
action of the managers today is con-
ciliatory, and while there is always a
possibility of a crisis that present de-
velopements render strike out of

Danville, ILL.,, March 4.-Three jur-

talesmen were prejudiced against
theatres or playhouses or belonged TO
secret societies, which were averse to
such amusements.

WIN A PARTIAL VICTORY
Decision Of Supreme Court in Favor
of the Officers Of the Fertilizer
Trust.

Washington, March 4.-The officers
of the Fertilizer trust, won a partial
victory in the supreme court of the
United States today when their ap-
peal from the decision of the circuit
court, of eastern Virginia dismissing
their application for writ of habeas
corpus was upheld. At the time of
the appealing they were in the Gus
tody of u. S. Marshal Treat who de-
sired to take them to Tennessee to
answer to an indictment of entering
into conspiracy in the restraint of
trade. The supreme court held the
court erred in granting the writ and
ordered the officers to be released
from custody.
Chief Justice Fuller added this did
not affect the merits of the case
or prejudice further proceedings.

important matters to come before the
board was referred to a committee.
Much time was given over to the
discussion of a proper secretary for
the club. 1t was the sentiment of the
directors that a secretary should be
chosen to succeed William Scott,
who should devote all his time to the
clubs interest as Mr.. Scott had done.
1t is the inteneion that the new sec
rotary shall be thoroughly competent
and progressive. There were six ap-
plicants considered by the directors
last night. Their names have already
been published.
Supt. Nettleton Neff told the board
that he was making progress on the
report he is preparing concerning
Richmond's industries and financial
institutions. This report will be
very broad in its scope. 1t is very
probable that the report when COM
pleted will be published and used for
purposes. Often COM

Commercial club concerning Rich

Neff is now preparing will give such

ming at 1880 o'clock and adjourning at

importance brought to the considera-
tion of council was motion made by
Councilman Deuker, to have the board
of public works confer with the vari-
Gus companies in the city to see IL
some agreement cannot be made
whereby they will agree not to place
poles in ten feet wide alleys.
Mr.. Deuker stated that nearly all
the companies concerned were now
placing poles in various alleys of the
city and that the poles placed in the
small alleys nearly obstructed them.
He said that these companies had
franchise rights to place these poles
in all alleys, but he thought If they
were approached in the proper man.
ner, they would consent not to place
them in the narrow alleys.
Study Would Pass Ordinance.
City Attorney Study, with his usual
promptness to grasp an opportunity to
place the chip on the shoulder, stated
that the council could pass an ordi-
nance forbidding the companies plac-
ing of poles in narrow alleys, as they
had no right to place them in such
thoroughfares. He said that not
withstanding their franchises, they
had no authority to obstruct a thor
oughfare, remarking that the big
wood poles in 10 feet wide alleys vir-
tually amounted to an obstruction.
Mr.. Study thought that in such alleys
small iron poles could be erected. BY
a unanimous vote, the resolution was
to the board.
Tells of Visit TO MCGOWAN.
Mr.. Study told council of his inter-
view with President Hugh MCGOWAN
in Indianapolis last week. He said
that Mr.. McGowan stated that he was
more than anxious that the local trac-

he would visit Richmond after the leg
