Has Made No Decision in Re-
gard to Demurrer Filed by
City Against Complaint Of
T. H. |. & E. Traction.
EXPRESSES HIS VIEWS
ON SITUATION. HOWEVER
Ordinance Drawn Against the
Traction Company Looked
Like City Was Attempting
To Hold Club Over Line.

Yesterday afternoon, Judge Ander-
son of the federal court at Indianapolis
without finally or formally ruling upon
the demurrer filed by the City OF Rich
mond against the complaint entered
by the Terre Haute, Indianapolis and
Eastern traction company for relief
from the ordinance sUspending the on
GRAFTON of traction cars on Main street.
gave his views on the case but said he
would give il his further consider
alton. The situation in the traction
case as il now stands is that so far as
the merits of the case are concerned,
Judge Anderson is clearly with the
city. So far as the technicalities of
the case are concerned il is possible
that he may hold the complaint OF tho
traction company good In this event
1t will be necessary for the city To file
and answer TO the complaint.
Club Over Traction.
After City Attorney Study. his assc
ciate attorney. Frank T. Gavin. of In
dianapolis and Attorney Winters for
the traction company had completed
their arguments yesterday Judge An
derson stated that in the first place,
he was very much impressed with the
fact that inasmuch as the traction
company had been xarcising rights
and privileges over Main street sew
erai years before he enactment of the
ordinance which is now the subject of
contention, this ordinance. upon first
consideration. looked like an attempt
on the part of the city TO hold a club
over the company.
Court Not Sure.
Judge Anderson then stated that up-
on further consideration. if he could
be satisfied that the temporary iniunc-
tion against the enforcement of the or
dinance would afford complete protec-
tlon for the company. for any of viola
tlons of the ordinance pending tho
outcome of the litigation and. in the
event that the case should be decided
against the company. he would think
that all the equal protection TO which
the company was entitled. was given
by the temporary injunction. Howev-
er, the court stated. he was not sure as
to this point.
troversy, Judge Anderson stated. as he
was at present advised. that he felt GER
tain that the Lontz and Freeman ordi-
nance gave the company no rights over
Main street, and that whatever right
the company possessed must be by vir-
tue of the 1889 franchise. This fran
chise. he thought. was to be strictly
construed and he pointed out that ID
did not confer the right. to operate
either freight or passenger traction
cars over Main street. The court
stated that he did not agree with Mr..
Winters, counsel for the traction COM
pany, that the control Of the streets
was in the hands of the city authorities
but that legislation had been enacted
which enabled the traction company To
engage in and do things not provided
in the original franchise of the COM
pany held from the City OF Richmond.

LAND OF THE UNKNOWN.

Siberia is an almost unknown land
to the American. There are nearly
Ave million square miles Of territory,
but if the average person in this
country were called upon to name a
city in all that vast country he would
fail.
The American consul at Dalny pre-
SCENTS a number of important facts as
to the resources of Russia's Asiatic
possessions.
There are only 900, 600 people in
Siberia. which is uivalent TO a den
sity of population of only IA per
square mile.
There Is very n'tle city life in ST.

PUMPKIN PIE.

Nina Irving, in New York Press.)
Take away your fancy buildings will
their higly favored sauces,
And your rainbow-colored ices, SO
tempting TO the eve.
And you cakes of many layers crown
ed with wreaths of sugar roses.
Like the flowers of wax our parlors
used to boast in days gone by.
For these dainties are not in It for a
minute when beside them
Lo. disk of brown and yellow. thick
and luscious, We espy.
And We reach with eager longing and
the appetite of 20.
For a creamy golden segment of
delicious pumpkin pie.
All the dreams of home and mother
that dust of years have covered.
While. as Fortunes battered football
We We're always on the fly.
Come TO soothe our RULED spirits with
the vision of farmhouse
In a green and quiet valley and be-
meath cloudless sky.
There the big round punkins ripened
in the sunny fields of autumn.
And We watched the stems each morn
ing till we found them brown
and dry,
Then We plucked the globes in tri-
umph. and we bore them to the
kitchen,
Where they soon were sliced and rea-
dy to be baked in pumpkin pie.
o, the Briton loves plum-pudding,
and the French delight in truf-
fies.
And for sauerkraut and sausage does
the exiled Teuton sigh.
And the dish of macaroni pleases
most the dark Italian.
While for bowls of oatmeal porridge
all the Scottish babies cry:
But TO every son of freedom, whether
born In old New England,
Or beyond the rugged Rockies or the
proud Sierras high,
Or among the cane and cotton and
magnolias down in Dixie,
There is nothing quite so tasty" as
a piece of pumpkin pie.

THE NANIES OF EUROPE.

1t is reported in London upon VIA
is said to be good authority that IL
English government intends # al
early date TO send a battie~hip squad
ron around The world in imitatinn o
the successful cruise of the American
fleet under Admiral sperly, now Il
anchor off the coast of China anC
just about to start for home BY va,
OF the Suez canal and the Mediter
ranean sea.
The American fleet as it sailed
from San Francisco was by far The
strongest naval armament that ever
attempted an ocean wide voyage
Fourteen battleships. ali of the most
modern equipment. left New York
City and two others joined the feet
before IL left San Francisco This
fleet of 16 battleships is strong
enough to defeat the fleets of all the
nations of the world gathered around
China and more than twice the fight
ing strength Of the Russian and Jap
anese fleets. which met in the de-
cisive naval battle of The Russo-Jap-
anese war.
The sending of such an imposing
fleet of battleships on voyage
around the world was an innovation
in naval operations Great Britain
keeps up two large fleets of battle
ships, but both are kept reasonably
close to her own shores One is sta
TONED near the Island of Malta and
is known as the Mediterranean fleet.
The other is always kept close to the
coast of England and is known as the
Channel fleet. In each of these fleets
more than 20 battleships are always
kept in commission. and the strength
of either fleet is greater than that
of the American squadron. In adj
dition to these few battleships are
kept near Gibraltar and three large
battleships are now in Chinese wa
tiers.
The policy of Great Britain. how
ever, has been TO keep her battle
ships at home and TO send the lighter
cruisers for long voyages, An Eng
lish battleship of the modern type
has never crossed the Atlantic or
visited any of the English colonies,
except India. England maintains a
large fleet of fast cruisers in Cana
dian waters under vice admiral, but
this fleet. although admirable for fast
travel could not cope with
the heavy guns of the battle
ships. No English battleship has
ever visited Australia, and. in fact.
the English naval power in the Pa
cifc has never been formidable
The decision of the English gov
eminent TO attempt a similar venture
is tribute TO the wisdom of the
American government 1t is to be
hoped that the English fleet will time
its visit TO America with the return
of our squadron. Sixteen American
and 20 English battleships moving to-
gether would present a splendid spec

cities, and the general growth OF most
Siberian cities is slow, though there
are a few boom towns" as STREET
ensk, which grew from 200 in 1897
to 5000 in 1900.
On December 10. 1892. the Trans
Siberian railway committee was ere
ated TO COLOMBO the land opened by
that road. and generally to promote
the economic development of ST.
IBERIA. The committee began at once
to promote emigration from Euor-
pean Russia 10 Siberia, and as a re-
suit of their endeavors. not merely
did the numbers of the emigrants
greatly increase, but their mortality
rapidly diminished In 1919, of
COCO emigrants, 1900 died on the
way; while in 1899. of $4,000 emil
grants, only 300 died on the way.
From 1861 to 1892, $4,000 Rus
sian farmers entered Siberia. while
from 1893 to 1899 these figures rose
TO 100000 This great increase
was due not only TO cheaper and bet
ter methods of travel, but to the bet
ter terms on which land could be OBJ
tanned. and to the constant care and
watchfulness of the committee men
toned. Before the Russo-Japanese
war most of the emigrants did not
go beyond Lake Baikal. remaining in
the governments of Tobolsk and
Tomsk and in the district of Akmo-
linsk. where they found the soil much
better on the average than that of
those parts of Russia whence they
came At the present time every
colonist arriving in Siberia receives
81 acres of land free, paying no taxes
on this land for the first three years,
and only half the regular taxes for
the next three. Penniless emigrants
have their passage paid by the gov
eminent, and wood from the crown
lands TO build their homes.
The government has established
depots for the sale OF agricultural
implements of all kinds to the i'm
migrants, often selling them at re-
dueed rates and on easy terms of
payment. During 1907 over 100000
persons, according 10 the latest Of
fetal figures, emigrated from Euro
pean Russia to Siberia. and of this
record breaking number fewer than
ever before returned to their former
homes.
In 1877 the Samara-Orenburg rail-
way was completed, uniting the fer
tile South Urel steppes to European
Russia and on November Z, 1901,
through rail communication was es-
tablished between European Russia
and the Russian port of Vladivostok,
on the Pacific coast, by the compile
tion of the Trans-Siberian railway,
begun at Vladivostok in 1891. This
railway. which is 4.125 miles in
length, does not at present pass who'll
ly through Russian territory, travers-
ing for 1,072 miles of its length the
Chinese province OF Hoi-Lung-Kiang
and Kirin, the northermost provinces
of Manchuria. This portion of the
line is operated by the Chinese East
sern Railway Co., nominally Chino
! Russian corporation.
