DID SPLENDID WORK
SkiIful Fighting by Firemen
Saved House From Com
pIete Destruction.
BUT LITTLE WATER USED

1t was due to the efficient work OF
the fire department that the Bescher
and Scott home was not destroyed en-
tirely by fire yesterday afternoon.
The ladies did splendid work and
used as little water as possible. Since
the addition of the chemical wagons
to the department it is possible to
distinguish any blaze that has not as
sumed too large a proportion. 1t is a
long run for the wagons to West Fipst
street and the National Road and by
the time they arrived yesterday after
noon, it looked as if the entire struc-
ture was doomed. Only two lines of
hose were laid and by skillful work
on the part of the men these sufficed.
The water froze soon after leaving the
hose and the ice added to the danger
of the struggle, while the firemen
were working on THE roof.

Local Concern Urges Congress
sionai Ways and Means
Committee to Reduce Tar
if on Thrashers.
FOREIGN MACHINES DO
NOT GIVE COMPETITION
Company Officials Point Out
That European Thrashers
Are Inferior to American
Built Machines.

The Gaar, Scott & Company of this
city, one of the largest thrashing ma
chine concerns in the world, would
welcome a reduction of tariff on for
eign built thrashers and on materials
which enter into the construction of
such machines as constructed ythe
local concern.
This announcement is made by the
company in letter just received by
the congressional ways and means
committee. which is now considering
the proposed tariff revision Gaar,
Scott & Co. especially desires that the
tariff on Canadian built thrashers be
reduced at least one-half. Manufac-
turing concerns throughout the state
of Indiana have written to the ways
and means committee urging tariff re-
duction. The following is the letter re-
ceived by the committee from Gaar,
Scott & Co.: ....- -p. ....
1--WE find from investigation that the
wages paid by thrashing machine man.
ufacturers in England and Germany
are from % to 40 per cent lower than
are paid in this country; but this diff
ference is greatly reduced, if not en-
tirefy wiped out. by superior methods
of production. improved shop equip
E1ent, shop practices, etc.
at is also true as a general thing
foreign agricultural implements and
machinery are inferior to those pro-
ouced in this country. and in many
lines this exists to such an extent that
the American farmer would not have
the foreign product, regardless of
price.
The difference of wages in this
country and Canada in our line is not
very great. and we have no OBJECTION
v hatever to the tariff on thrashing
machinery from that country being re-
duced to the same amount that tire
Canadian puts on our machinery, or
even to lower point. In fact we think
the duty should be reduced at least
Gre half regardless of what the Cana
dian government may do, and taken off
entirely If they will do the same.
I'VE again beg to say that we will
welcome any reduction in the tariff on
tnrashing machinery that is made on
the materials entering into the con-
siruction thereof"

Judge Fox this Morning Makes
Several Ancient Cases
Walk the Plank.
ATTORNEYS STILL GROGGY
UNHEARD OF ACTIVITY, OF COURT
STILL CAUSES GoSslP-JUDGE
PUTS STOP TO KELLEY LlTl-
cHTToN.

Further advance to bring about the
clearing of the civil docket in the
Wayne circuit court was made by
Judge Fox this morning. In cases
in which he had given notice that sum-
mary action would be taken, the judge
did not hesitate any longer. He dis
missed them with comment. In other
cases he notified attorneys they must
file answers or submit their demur-
-e:s at once.
The judge also listed a number of
cases which are to be set for trial.
No cases are set and none will be
placed upon the trial docket before
,.ext week. There will be no circuit
court tomorrow and probably none
Saturday. Judge Fox will be at New
Castle to hear case in the Henry
circuit court for Judge Jackson. 1t
was announced the petition to remove
the guardian in the case of Scott VS..
Null will be heard next Monday.
Kelley Case Dismissed.
One of the cases to fall beneath the
courts az was that of John H. Kelley
vs.. Bonnielee Kelley for divorce. This
case was dismissed for lack of prose
cation. The kelleys have figured more
prominently in the circuit court in the
last two years than any other residents
in the county. The defendant in the
above entitled cause has had a suit
PENDING against the above plaintiff for
support Of minor children. The court
handed this case knockout blow, also
when it was ordered dismissed at the
cost of the plaintiff. This ends for
the time being the Kelley litigation.
At least half dozen attorneys have
been involved in the fiascos in some
way or other.
The case of Thomas Mullica VS.. the
Union Traction Company was dismiss
ed at the plaintiffs cost for want of
prosecution. This is change of ven
ue case that had been on the docket
for :: long time without any steps be-
ing taken. g....
Handed the Icy Nit
The divorce suit of William Wilson
VS.. Emma Wilson was handed the
icy NIT by the court also. When the
docket was called Tuesday the judge
declared that unless something was
done this case would be scratched of
the books at the next calling.
Another case to fall by the wayside
was that of Indian Belle Benster vs.
William Horton. The court announced
that he believes at the next calling
he will dismiss the case of Schneider
vs. Ferguson for want of prosecution
It has been on the docket for four
years and was reinstated after hav-
ing been dismissed for want of prose-
cation.

Increase Attendance.

Health conditions in the public
schools are better at present than they
have been for some time. No reports
have been made to Miss Winchester

Cold Wave Victims Swarm
Upon Associated Charities
And Ask Assistance in Food,
Fuel and Clothes.
HEAR T-BREAKING ARE
SOME OF TALES TOLD
consumptive, Out of Employ
ment, and Wife Sick in Bed,
Proudly Asks Charity for
The First Time.

Tales of the father of the family be-
ing in jail, being i'll or being out of
work were poured into the ears of
Mrs. Elizabeth Gambler, city mission
ary, yesterday when the first chill
blast of the cold wave swept into the
Associated Charities headquarters a
small army of the unfortunate and
suffering poor. With aching heart
Mrs. Gambler heard these tales of dis
tress and she did what she could to
relieve the suffering, but her charity
did not extent far, owing to the depict
ed condition of the Associated Chart
les treasury.
Yesterday was the first day of the
winter when the poor experience the
first real pangs of exposure, conse-
Quently the demands for assistance
We're many, and the majority of the
petitions were for fuel and clothes.
The stream of petitioners continued
to file into the Associated Charitie S
office today. but many were forced to
leave without that charity they
sought. The township trustee has al
so, yesterday and today, been beseiged
by cold wave victims.
consumptiye Aaks Aid.
One Of the most pathetic cases re-
corded yesterday was the appeal
made to the Associated Charities by a
consumptive. BY reason of his physi-
cal condition, he has been unable to
secure work at his trade and the other
odd jobs which he has obtained have
been SO infreGuent as to furnish but
meager living. His wife, in an eff
fort to keep the wolf from the door
became a physical wreck and is now
sick in bed. The man came to Mrs.
Gambler and with tears in his eyes
asked for groceries and fuel to supply
them for few days. He said. Il have
never appealed for aid before and /
never intend to again. Mrs. Gambler
knew of the conditions and furnished
the desired supplies. In speaking of
this case this morning she stated that
the family. while poor, was a very
proud one and this had prevented
them for some time from asking for
aid.
Many Are in Jail.
A colored family which had to re-
sort to charity because it's father was
sent to Jail for violation of the gambl-
Ing laws of the state has been one of
the patrons Of the Associated Charit-
les. There are other families who are
in dire circumstances because the
heads of the family are in Jail. and
they will have to be provided for by
the charitable organizations
The plea. ''out OF work, whiJ, not
nearly SO general as in previous
years, is not infrequently given by
those appealing. Cases of .'inability
to secure work because of illne ss'' are
frequent.
