COMPROMISE PLAN
WILL Be ACCEPTED
Commissioners Expect to Ap-
prove Suggestion OF the
Commercial Club.

After whispered conference with
E. NJ. Haas and Secretary C. w. Jor-
dan of the Commercial Club Wednes-
day afternoon which lasted about IF
teen minutes the county commission
ers agreed that the club members
should secure options to ground desir
ed on the National Road, which will
figure in the compromise proposition
between the commissioners and the
Terre Haute, Indianapolis and Eastern
Traction company over the location of
the company's tracks on the highway.
The board agreed with the CONNER
cial Club representatives that If the
compromise would cost the county
nothing, only a waiver of it's action to
force the company to comply with its
orders, that the board probably would
accept the compromise proposal of
the Commercial Club. On Saturday
when the board will again be in ses-
sion, the Commercial Club committee
men likely will have a report to sub
NIT to the board.
Options on the land desired in Or
der to effect this compromise and
which will have to be purchased or
otherwise acquired from landowners,
will be secured by the committeeman.

A STRIKE TOMORROW.

CHICAGO, Sept. 2s-Thirty-five
thousand shopmen employed on the
Illinois Central and other Hartman
lines will be ordered to strike tomor-
row unless the railroad officials agree
to demands OF the new Federation Of
Shop Unions today.
This was the word passed out from
union headquarters in Chicago today.
Julius Kruttschnitts, vice-president of
the Union Pac. n. r., to whom the ul-
timatum of the union was presented,
has until midnight to make reply.
Hope Of gaining recognition for the
Federation without q strike has been
abandoned. Kruttschnitt so far has
ignored the union appeals.
J. w. King. head of the Information
al Union OF Blacksmiths, Is authority
for the statement that the strike will
be called unless the Federation Is rec.
ognixed. Kline said he did not expect
reply from Kruttschnitt and intimat-
ed that noon tomorrow would see the
order posted in shops all over the
west.
The strike of clerks on the South
ern division OF the Illinois Central is
spreading. On this strike, the shop
men base their hopes, for II they
should walk out, the Illinois Central
would be unable to turn wheel.

HAPPY HOUSEKEEPING.

The worst kind Of toll which house
work has in the past demanded is dish
washing and laundry work. Con-
scientious housewives made their work
a real burden by constant scrubbing,
while the Indifferent kind sacrificed
their families on the altar Of cheap
soaps reeking with rosin, .alkalies and
unpleasant smelling fats.
The constantly increasing army of
users of Hewitt's Easy Task soap find
their labors divided in two and their
hours of recreation doubled. And,
even more important, every item of
household washing shows an improve
ment which would make the most ex-
acting rejoice.

TWO MEN HELD ON
ROBBERY CHARGES
Yeager and Bodicker to Be
Tried but Ray Hilbert
Was Released.

Facing charges of highway robbery,
which on conviction means long terms,
In the penitentiary, Thomas Yeager
and Edward Bodicker. both well
known here. were taken to the county
Jail on Thursday morning, each held
in default of $4,000 bond. Ray Hilbert,
the third young man to be arrested on
the charge, was released on his own
recognizance, the police claiming he
had no connection with the alleged
crime, and was victim of circumstan-
ces.
Yeager and Bodicker have both been
identified by Samuel Pearson, a New
Paris carpenter, as the persons who
accompanied him from a Main street
saloon, then followed him up an al
ley off South A street, between Thir-
teenth and Fourteenth streets and
there cracked him on the skull and
robbed him of $3.50. The accused will
be tried during the October term Of
court. 1t was declared that both
would retain John F. Robbins as their
attorney.
The connection which Hilbert bore
to the crime, according to the under
standing of the police, was that he was
one of the four playing pool Tuesday
evening in the rear of a saloon, on
Main between Sixth and Seventh
streets, and when Pearson announced
his intention to go home about 8
o'clock. he said, as did Yeager and b.
dicker, he would accompany him. Hill
bert lives on North Seventeenth street.
Hilbert did not see the atual assault,
aording to his story to the police. He
Ia willing to testify that he accom-
panied the men as far as the alley and
there left the three who turned in.
Hilbert says he continued to his home.
Yeager is the man who is believed to
have struck Pearson.
Bodicker has served a term in JEFF
fersonville roformatory, the police say,
FOR snatching a pocket book from a
woman, while walking down North
Seventh street.

FINGERS
At COP-P|NCHtD
College Boy with a Bun Was
Pulled Off Train by Of
ficer Harry Hebble.

Because Lindsay Franciscus, a
youth said to be the son of a wealthy
ST. Louisian, who was enroute east
to college. placed his thumb to his
nose and derisively twiddled his fin
gers at Officer Hebble. just as Penn
sylvania passenger train No. "a was
pulling out of the station about 8
o'clock on Wednesday evening, he
landed behind the bars in the city Jail
The officer who had some trouble
in making the young man be quiet
while the train was waiting here, climb
ed onto the observation platform of
the rear car and jerked Franciscus
from the car. From conveyance such
as a modern Pullman car with every
conceivable luxury, the lad was trans
ferred to the patrol wagon and taken
to headquarters and slated with pub
lie intoxication. About an hour later,
a stranger, flashily dressed. appeared
and paid his fine. 81 and costs. Fran
discus, who had previously telegraph
ed his parents of his plight was then
released and is now supposedly in
New York city, as he caught the next
train out.
The officer could stand the actions
of the youth SO long as the latter kept
his hilarity we'll curbed and did not
annoy others at the depot, but when
the insulting name was flashed by the
sign language to the officer, even
though No. "a was pulling out this was
more than the latter could stand.
After relating the circumstances OF
the arrest of the young man, Chief
Gormon conducted an examination of
frequenters of the different signs,
such as lone finger" two fingers"
and others which he says he learned
at school.

CHORUS GIRL BRIDE
Alarmed Over Continued
Absence of Husband.

NEW YORK, Sept. 15.-Mrs. Louis
Marshall Ream, who was Eleanor
Pendleton of the chorus of The Belle
of Mayfair" and is now the daughter
in-law of Norman B. Ream, the multi
millionaire, is alone in the parlor of
her little flat at 206 West Fifty-third
street wondering what has become of
her young husband.
The bride has waited since last FRI
day for him to come back from his
fathers country home at Thompson,
Conn, and now she says she has about
reached the limit of her patience.
There is much mystery about the
continued absence of the son of the
millionaire, who left his chorus girl
bride three days ago to ask forgive
ness for his unexpected marriage of
September 1. This mysterious silence
has led to the impression that the ex-
pected forgiveness has not been forth
coming.
But where is the bridegroom?
This is question that Mrs. Eleanor
Pendleton Ream would like to have
answered.
"He is not here" said the lonely
bride today at her home. Il don't
know when he will be here, and 1
haven't heard from him. That's all
there is to be said"
Mrs. Eleanor Pendleton Ream has
had six trunks packed ready for a
prospective moving to the Hotel Got
ham after the hoped-for forgiveness
arrived along with the now missing
husband.
Young Ream is supposed to be still
at Thompson. His father is there,
silent. The family lawyer who was
called there for the weekend has not
returned.

Notices sent out recently from the

ington warning Indiana corporations
which have failed to make returns on
time of their liability for a penalty Of
from $4,000 to $4,000 have created a
panic among the officials of more than
1000 corporations. The notices were
dated Sept 5.
The returns are required under the
provisions of the special excise tax
law passed August 5, 1909. All cor
porations, joint stock companies, as
sociations and insurance companies
are required by the act to make a re-
turn showing their annual net profits
before March l, of each year. The law
requires the payment of l per cent
excise tax on net profits above $1,000.
The corporations which failed to re-
port, for the most part, were those
which did not make a profit of $1,000
and which were not required to pay
any tax. But their failure to make a
return subjects them to the same pen
atty as though their returns had been
fraudulent.
The notices sent out September s,
contain an offer to compromise and it
has been stated from a reliable source
that the district revenue officials have
received notices that no sum less than
SO is to be accepted in a compro-
mise. This is taken to mean that the
sum of $40 will be accepted in all
cases. Elan H. Neal, revenue col
lector for Indiana, would not confirm
the report that his office had receiv-
ed a private communication but it is
known positively that certain persons
representing derelicit corporations
have been told to send in $40 and all
would be we'll.
Stricken with sudden fear, some of
the smaller companies subject to the
provisions of the excise tax law, has
tened to send in $50, 800, $50 and as
much as 5000 in some instances, de-
