cles of incorporation is that the COM
pany intends to engage in the retail
shoe business in Richmond and In.
dianapolis and elsewhere. There are
thousand shares of stock each share
being worth 800.
Mr.. Feltman is we'll known in this
city, having for many years been en-

DR., SMELSER PLANS
TO MAKE A FIGHT
Promises an Expose of Meth
DDS of Members of the
State Medical Board.

BY fighting fire with fire, Il general
of medical registration and their
methods is planned in the charges
which are contemplated against the
members of the board by attorneys
for Dr. s. G. Smelser of this city.
against whom charges of incompe-
tence have been filed with the board.
DR.. Smelser, who lives at 81 South
Eighth street, is vice president of the
board. He will be given a hearing
by Governor Marshall on March 10 un-
less this meeting is postponed.
The members of the board, with
the exception of DR.. Smelser. are
James NJ. Dinnen, Fort Wayne; w. I.
Gott. Charlottesville; N. S. Garfield,
Frankfort; w. A. Spurgeon, Muncie;
and J. P. Spaunhurst, indianapolis.
1t is likely that those members of the
board who have opposed DR.. Smelser,
including all but DR.. Spaunhurst of In
dianapolis, will be made defendants
in civil damage suits by the local ply
sician.
III Is dlSO tudl StNli ooihdpS
suit. or suit for SANDER or libel will
be filed against practicing physician
of this city whose name has not been
divulged. The basis of the action
probably will be that alleged malicious
attempts were made to injure the
standing of DR. Smelser. The matter
is left entirely in the hands of the at
torneys for the physician including
John F. Robbins OF this city. and form
er Judges Robsn. and Watson of In
dianapolis. The amount of damages
to be asked in each suit has not been
determined.
Members of the medical board are
allowed s6 per day when the board is
in session. but it is declared the rec
ords show that on particularly siren
uous days. some of the older members
of the board drew double the amount
allowed by law. 1t is also charged b!
DR.. Smelser that an effort was made
to make him a tool of the board. DR.
Spaunhurst. whose appointment to the
board was fought by the older mem
! bers. because. it is alleged, he was ar
csteopath. was befriended by DR.. Smell
ser. he states. and DIR. Spaunhurst i:
said to be the only member of the
board who is now defending DR.. Smell
ser.

COUNCIL DELAYS
LICENSE ACTION
Wants to Understand Proc
tor Law More Fully Be-
fore Taking Action.

Blissful ignorance Of the Proctor II.
quor regulative bill, recently passed
by the legislature, was shown by city
council last night, when an ordinance
was introduced. raising the liquor IL
censcs in Richmond from 1851 to
$500. for city license, as may be done
under the Proctor law. Council decid-
ed to wait until they fully understood
the bill before taking any action.
City Attorney Gardner was ordered
to secure copies of the bill and mail
them to each councilman. Another
meeting will be held next Monday
night, when the ordinances and Proc
tor bill will be discussed Meantime
the ordinance stands on first reading.
Another reason for the delay was to
await the decision Of the county COM
missioners Wednesday morning as to
the ratio of saloons per population.
Gardner explained that this would
make little difference. but council
thought otherwise.
Applause from council greeted the
appearance OF the ordinance appro-
priating $156 to refund fines assessed
by the city court for a violation of
the right and left ordinance. 1t was
passed last night on a suspension of
the rules. The city controller will
make out warrants soon for payment
Of the fines.
A suggestion was made that several
of the new macadam streets which
the board proposes to construct this
summer, be treated with preparation
OF oil mixed with sand. which it was
Claimed has been used with success
in many cities. The board will inves
tigate. Condition of cross walks all
over the city were complained Of by
Councilman Williams.
President Hammond of the board OF
works, asked that the police depart
ment enforce the hitching ordinance
more rigidly than has been the Gus
tom during the past few months. He
said lives are being. endangered every
day from this cause.
The city attorney is now preparing
formula for standard gas" which
will be included in the ordinance tc
be presented soon relative to the gas
supply. He is corresponding with the
New York utilities commission on this
matter.

last week of the legislature and pass
ed both houses. Late on Monday
night Lieutenant Governor Hail ap-
