Rev. DR.. CQtf1eU Gives Praise
at Revival Service TO d. q. Reid

At the union evangelistic meeting
held in Reid Memorial church last
night, the Rev. J. Everest Cathell.
former rector of ST. Pauls Episcopal
church, in the course of his sermon
paid a beautiful and an unusual
tribute to Daniel G. Reid. He spoke
as follows:
Several congregations of Christian
people of Richmond are representa-
lively assembled here tonight for pur-
poses of renewal and increase of spir-
itual life and power, in all the
churches. We are met in one of the
most complete and beautiful houses of
God in the whole land,-erected by
the personal generosity OF a we'll
known man in loving memory of the
piety of his Christian parents. In the
holy Gospels it is said Of a man He
loveth our nation and hath built us a
synagogue" 1t may be said Of Daniel
G. Reid, He loveth our city, and has
given us q worshipful house of pray
en-" Doubtless. Richmond people all
appreciate. In various estimates. this
Reid Memorial church. Doubtless, all
Christian people are grateful for such
i1lial testimony to parental piety. But

it may be wondered if such apprecia-
ton and gratitude ever takes the form
Of supplication for Gods blessing up
on the benefactor. Mr.. Reid was a
well known Richmond boy and man.
His diligence and integrity in bust
ness gave him pre-eminence in this
city. While he lived here he always
gave literally and generally to the
cause OF religion. His transfer to the
crowded metropolis. the larger world
to which his surprising abilities have
summoned and engaged him have in
creased alike his opportunities AMI
responsibilities. If the Christian folk
OF this city do not remember such
man in their prayers and cody faith.
1T is not likely any body else will ever
think OF him in such connection. His
needs of such pious sympathy may be
greater than We cen understand. He
deserves place alike in gratitude and
the intercessions OF the Christian peo-
pie of this city. When a man of such
talents in the secular world is brought
into the Kingdom of Heaven, the &C.
cession is significant beyond estima-
ton. IT he comes in on the wings of
friendly interest. his service to God
and to men will be incalculable

A BRIEF VACATION

Hilariously ''soused" with the "Oh

ship without rudder, Irwin Deyers,
aged g. years. was gathered up by
Patrolman Westenberg on North
Ninth and D streets this morning just
an hour after the man had been re-
leased from the county Jail where he
had been a boarder for the past eleven
days, for intoxication. In the city
court this afternoon the old man put
up pitifu1 tale. He stated that his
home was in Shelbyville and that ii

mediately. Devers' request was grant
ed by Judge Converse and the man

He MAY NAME TWO OTHERS

PLACES ON THE TEAM-ALL
MADE FINE RECORDS.

Carl Allison, captain and quarter on
team, which won the state champion
ship, has been chosen by Heze Clark,
former Indiana star and expert high
school foot ball critic, for the captain
cy and quarter back position on the
all-Indiana high school eleven. Clar
ence Ferling and Carlos Haas, tackle
and full back on the high school eleven
will also probably receive places on
the All-Indiana team.
There was no question about Ali
son with Mr.. Clark. Allison directed
his team in most superb manner and
his individual efforts has won many a
game. Haas and Ferling in their re-
spective positions, did not shine Xix e
Allison, but were not given as much
credit as was due them, in all probable
ity. Had these two been playing on
a team without Allison, the credit that
is Allison's would be theirs. Their
selection by Mr. Clark for the All-In-
diana team remains somewhat prob
lematical because there are number
of other excellent players in these re-
Spect1ve positions IN the state.
Always on the Job.
Allison and Haa; never fell down
during the entire season. whether call.
ed upon to carry the ball or to punt
in safe territory. In the latter respect
both are excellent kickers in all of its
branches. Allison did much of the
punting and drop kicking while Haas
did the place kicking. Both played an
excellent defensive game AS field
general. Allison was in a class by him.
self TO the unframed eye, Ferling's
efforts did not show off like his other
two team mates. His forte was that
of defense and breaking up the oppo
nent's offense. Much credit is due
him for the teams showing this year.
These three have played on the high
school team the past four years and
from the first. they have been stars.
However. not until this year were they
picked as All-Indiana stars. Their
development into Ail-Indiana men this
year is largely due to the efforts of
James Callahan. former Michigan
varsity man. who coached them until
in the middle Of the season.

palladium Specially

Indianapolis, Ind. Nov 19.-The in
terurban railroads Of Indiana declare
that they are not receiving sufficient
compensation for the carrying of the
United States mails and they are seek
ing to get better rate from the gov
eminent. And right on the heels
of this announcement comes the state
ment from Washington that the post
office department is starting an in
vestigation to find out of the govern
ment is not paying an exorbitant price
to railroads Of all kinds for carrying
the mails. So there seems to be two
sides to the question.
The Central Electric Railway asso-
citation met here yesterday The
membership is made up of high Off
Gals Of electric railways Of the central
states, and they meet several times a
year to discuss electric railway mat
tiers. One of the subjects under dis
cussion yesterday, was that Of the rate
for carrying the mail.
What Speakers Said.
Several speakers declared that the
rate was too low, and some Of them ad-
vocated the cancellation of the present
contracts which the roads have with
the government. They said they be-
lieved a concerted action along that
line on the part of the electric railways
would bring the government to time in
the matter of rates. A committee
IN -
make further investigations and re-
port at the next meeting.
Another matter under discussion
was that of adopting a standard kind
OF draw bar for use on interurban cars.
1t was pointed out that there has
grown up great interchange Of bust
ness among interurbans and that there
is large amount Of through travel.
passengers changing from one road to
another. 1t is the belief of the Off
Gals of these roads that this class of
business will grow and increase until
1t will be necessary to run through
cars over two or more roads in order to
accommodate through passengers. This
will necessitate the adoption Of stand
ard ears or standard couplings, so that
car from one road may be coupled
on to a car on another road, just as
cars on steam roads are now coupled
to cars OF the other road
To adopt such a standard coupler
would cost the interurabn roads a
large amount of money, but the asso-
citation appointed a committee to in
vestigate the matter and report at
the next meeting on some device for
that purpose. The electric railway
men realize that they will be required
to do this some day by law passed
either by the federal government or by
the separate states. and some OF the
speakers on the subject yesterday said
that the sooner they do. 1t the better
off they will be.
Electric railway men were present
yesterday from practically every cleo
trio road in Indiana, Illinois, Michigan.

SUGAR TRUST FRAUD
1t Is Generally Believed the
Shakeup Made Today Is a
Forerunner of Wholesale
House Cleaning.

New York. Nov. 19.-Collector of
the Port Loeb today caused one CT
the biggest shakeups that ever occur
red in the customs department, when
he announced the discharge from the
service Of James F. Vail, deputy col
lector OF the port, and eighteen other
customs officers. The shakeup is the
result of Investigations into the weigh
ing department, in connection with
the Sugar Trust fraud Those dis
charged besides Vail were George E.
Bedell, an inspector formerly chief
clerk of the weighing department.:
James P. Shiland and Joseph o. Car
rol, ex-foreman of weighing districts;
ten assistant weighers. three inspec-
tors, formerly assistant weighers; one
inspector and one assistant gauger.
Came as Surprise.
The dismissal of Vail came as a big
surprise. His name was mentioned
by witnesses at the trial of Antonio
and Phillip Musica, charged with brib-
ing government inspectors, but moth
ing that would directly implicate him
in the alleged bribery was told. Vail
was promoted to the office of deputy
collector from that of deputy surveyor
of the port and his salary was raised
five thousand dollars.
Collector Loeb in telling of Wallis
dismissal makes it clear that no proof
that he was guilty of any corruption
had been found.
Around the customs department to-
day it was generally believed that this
shake up, by which nineteen men lost
their jobs, is only the forerunner of a
greater house cleaning.
