INJUNCTION IS
ASKED BY SUIT
Glen Miller Traction Squab-
BILE in Court for Anoth.
er Hearing.
HILL Is THE PLAINTIFF.
CLAIMS HIS RESIDENCE is DAM
AGED AND ANNOYANCE WILL
FOLLOW OPERATION OF IN
TERURBAN CARS.

This afternoon in the circuit court
suit for injunction against the city
and the T. H. l. & E. traction COM
pany, to prevent the placing of a trac-
ton line through Glen Miller park,
was filed. In this suit George w.
Hill, 2277 Main street, was named as
plaintiff. He represents all the citi-
zens who have protested against the
placing of a traction line in the park.
In the suit the plaintiff sets forth
specific damages, alleging that his
home is opposite the point where the
park line Joins with the Main street
line and that his property is damaged
by the operation of cars through the
park; that it mars the view from his
home and that he will be greatly an
noyed by the additional noise and con-
fusion.
The injunction proceedings were
prepared by Attorneys Wilfred Jessup
and A. NJ. Gardner. 1t is not known
when the case will be brought to the
attention of Judge Fox.

AUTHORIZED BONDS
Issue Ordered to Cover Ex-
pense of New Washington
Township Road.
MAY BE SOME COMPLAINT.

The county commissioners met this
afternoon and passed an ordinance au-
thoriZing the issuance of bonds to the
amount of $4,000 for the building of
the Washington township road. This
was the first road petitioned for in
Wayne county under the new law. 1t
has been a thorn in the side of the
commissioners ever since the petition
was filed with them. The bonds au-
thorized today will be placed on sale
two weeks from today. 1t is regarded
as probable that demonstrators against
the road will seek to prevent the COM
missioners from selling these bonds by
filing suit to enjoin.

Marks End of Route in Freight
Interchange Case That
Was Long.
ATTORNEYS FEEL REASONABLY
SURE OF FAVORABLE VERDICT
IN CELEBRATED CASE NOW IN
COURT.

The filing of the brief in the case
of the Commercial club of the City of
Richmond and the Indiana State Rail-
way Commission against the P, c., c.
& ST. L. Railway company, yesterday,
marked the consummation of a long
legal preliminary. The counsel for
the plaintiffs has hope for favorable
action upon the part of the high court.
The point at stake is one of principle
and fair dealing, as much as law, but
sentiment never weighs in the balance
of justice.
The case began with the petition of
the Commercial club before the rail
road commission. An ORDER was made
by the commission directing the roads
to make a physical connection and in
terchange freight. From this order
the Pennsylvania took an appeal unto
statute to the superior court of Marion
county The superior court affirmed
and sustained the order of the commits
sion and the Pennsylvania then ap-
pealed the judgment to the superior
court of Indiana.
The case has been presented so far
upon the complaint filed by the Penn.
ylvania railroad in the superior court
and the appeal to the supreme court is
upon the sufficiency of the complaint
filed by the railroad company.
If the supreme court upholds the
complaint then the case will be sent
down for the trial in the Marion SUI
perior court and tried upon it's merits
and evidence introduced by both sides
the case being tried in the regular
way. If a demurrer to the complaint
Is sustained, the Pennsylvania rail
road will then be compelled to either
file an amended complaint or abandon
it's proceedings.
The presumption is that the railroad
company in its present complaint has
alleged all the facts which will sup
port it's contention, and if defeated on
the present complaint the matter will
probably be closed.

GRAND JURY BUSY
At SPRINGFIELD
Six Alleged Leaders in Riots
Arrested as Result of
Investigations
TASK is NOT HALF DONE.
SMALL TOWN NEAR SPRINGFIELD
ISSUES WARNING AND NEGROES
HAVE BEGUN TO FLEE FOR
THEIR LIVES.

Springfield, ILL.,, Aug. 22.-The grand
fury yesterday indicted six more al
legged leaders in the recent race riots.
Four of them were indicted four times
each for malicious mischief and incit-
ing riot, and two were held on two
charges each. All were the result of
the destruction of Lopcr's restaurant.
Those indicted today were Ernst
Humphrey, huckster; Rudolph Bred
meyer, mechanic; John SCHEME, gro
Gerry clerk; William Sutton. cabman;
Herbert Carey, blacksmith. and one
other man whose identity was kept Sc
cret at the order of Judge Creighton
because he is understood to have fled
from Springfield.
1t is rumored an indictment charg-
ing murder also is to be returned
against Humphrey and more indict-
ments are anticipated against Kate
Howard and Abraham Raymer, who
are under serious indictments. Among
others who may be indicted are many
living in nearby towns.
Jury's Task Not Half Done.
That the grand jury has not half fin
ished the task is shown by the state
ment of Assistant States attorney
Wines tonight. He said the prosecu-
tors were confident half a hundred or
more indictments would be returned
within the next ten days.
The coroner's jury returned a ver-
dict saying Louis Johnson, the boy
who was killed during the riot at Lo-
per's restaurant, was shot by an I'M
known person. This decision was
reached only after delay, Coroner
Woodruff having discovered no au-
topsy had been made. The coroner
and a physician went to Mechanics
burg, where they exhumed the body
and made an examination. The ply
stefan reported to the jury that the
boy was killed by the shot which
struck him in the neck
Rolla Reyes. the boy who was shot
accidentally by a playmate, which oc-
the superstition that negro had shot
Him, is said to have good chance of
recovery. William III. Bowe, who was
shot and beaten by negro thugs, is
thought to be on the road to recovery.
News came from Buffalo. fifteen
miles from Springfield, today, saying
that race hatred has reached a high
pitch there. In front of the interur-
ban station at Buffalo is large sign:
'All niggers are warned out of town

Frank Gilmore, the actor, tells the
following story about his aunt, Miss

years ago.

of the evening" said Mr.. Gilmore.
"Glancing through her part hastily at
breakfast, she noticed that there was
one scene in which she had SO little to

scene and get to the longer passages.
when night came, and my aunt
made her appearance, she did very
well in the first scene. In the second
scene occurred the passages she had
skipped in the morning. She rushed to
the corner in which she left her book,
but it was not there. Finally, the
stage manager, receiving no response
to his repeated calls, sought her out
and pushed her ON the stage. There
she was, before a large audience. with
out the slightest idea of what she was
supposed to do or say. The scene was
a courtroom. AT a high desk sat the
presiding judge. letter perfect in his
part, because he had it ready to read

trial was taking place, and Miss

she was to be the principal witness.
