INDIANA GOVERNOR
Asks For Constables to Keep
Out Kentucky Night Riders.

Gov. Hanly, of Indiana, in his
message to the legislature said:
In the early spring numerous raids
were made in that part of the State
bordering upon the Ohio, upon prop
erty of persons engaged in growing
tobacco, resulting in much destruc-
ton. Many letters were written,
threatening personal violence to the
growers. In a few weeks the tobac-
co crop will be cut and housed, and
growers will hold the crops at their
peril, with prospects of destruction
by fire.
TAKES SHOT AT KENTUCKY.
"For year, one-third of Ken
lucky has been in a state of anarchy.
Neither life nor property is secure.
Special legislation is necessary to
make homes of our citizens and their
property secure"
The governor asks for special con-
stables leaving to him the compensa-
ton to be allowed them and an APP
preparation of $4,000. He says that
such legislation alone will have a
lettering effect.

T piano consigned to Mrs. Wheeler. svaiuedsat about s40o. had been shipped by that road and was in the freight shed at the time of the fire. The piano was burned, and the question of the responsibility of the carrier hinged up- on the twenty-four hours notice Of goods arrived, sent by the railroad to the person. receiving the goods.
 The railroad claimed that such no- tice had been sent to Mrs Wheeler, as to the arrival of her piano, and claim ed that their responsibility ceased af- ter twenty-fouf hours of such arrival notice. They claimed that Mrs Wheel CT had been given ample opportunity to remove her goods from the shed.

Mayor Has Perry Street
 Car Tracks Ripped Up

per hours last night. Both lines had all they could do to carry the subur- banites within walking distance of home.
 The ordinance commanding the Trac- ton Company to move the tracks was passed on February g. The Traction Company wae given ninety days within which to move the tracks over to La awrence Street. This time expired on May 3. and nothing had been moved. Mayor Teague directed letter to Gen eral Manager Ragland drawing his at- tention to the circumstances. MT. Ragland said that he understood that the Council had given him an addi- tional thirty days in which to move the tracks.
 This. he said. was done in the res- olution offered by Alderman Moritz and passed by the Council. This "an-. thorized and empowered" the Mayor to give company thirty days mere.
 The Mayor said yesterday that after the company had been allowed over three months he had granted 1t an ad- ditional two weeks in which to take up the tracks. This he thought was reasonable. s
 Moreover, the city had already let its contract for the paving of South Perry Street. The contractors were about ready to go to work. The paw ing could not go as long as the car tracks were undisturbed.
 Mfr. Ragiand saM yesterday the tear-' ing up of the tracks would disturb the service for two weeks. He indicated that 1t had been his purpose to put on Lawrence Street the rails which would be taken up from Hull Street Hull Street is being paved with asphalt and 1t is necessary to lay paving rails on 1t. These have been laid by the tracks in preparation for the paving. Mir. Ragland said yesterday that it was his intention to have laid the old rails on Lawrence Street.
 In explaining the position of the Traction Company Mir. Ragland said yesterday:
 Ragland's Statement.
 VI. H. Ragland. General Manager of the Traction Company. said this morn tng:
 "of the action of the Mayor in tear ing up the tracks on Perry Street we have nothing to say. That Is mat ter that I do not care to discuss.
 T do say, however, that we antici, pated that the question would be fully settled at the meeting of the Council tonight Two weeks ago the Council, at our suggestion, asked the Mayor to hold up on the Perry Street question until tonight. We expected that this would be done. and we were prepar- ing ourselves for the decision, what ever 1t was. As a consequence, he had not begun the removal of the tracks"

 The Police Department has been busy today trying to learn the whereabouts of white man, Ed Metz. who for some months has been living at 1112 Small Street, in the northern part of the city.
 Metz is said to be about 50. years old. For some months he has been op- erating small store in the northern part of the city and disappeared from his home early Sunday morning. ,-
 The mans wife last night notified the Police Department of his disappear apce. A search was made for him but he could not be located. When Metz failed to show up at his home this morning the search for him by the po- lice was renewed but up until tonight the mystery surrounding his strange disappearance had not been cleared. Mrs. Metz says that when her hus- band disappeared from home Sunday morning he had large amount of money. She seems inclined to believe that her husband was robbed during the day and killed. gAss.s The police do not put much credence' in this theory and believe that Metz will return home in 8 few days. but in the meantime they are trying to learn of his whereabouts.
