Attorney-general Honan Says
Established Saloons Are
Not Affected by the Regu-
lation Act.
CITY LICENSE FEE
CAN BE MADE $500
Mayor Wants Ordinance Pro-
viding $500 License With
drawn, but Gardner Does
Not Favor Action.

When at the capital yesterday, City
Attorney A. NJ. Gardner was given an
Interpretation of the Proctor saloon
reglation bill from the attorney gener-
al which nearly coincided with his
own
According to Honan all existing sal
oon licenses are perpetual unless re-
voked for violation of the law. He
admits that the matter may have to
be settled in court, but says the intent
of the law was to permit all saloons
now in existence to continue in opera
ton.
Council may raise the city license to
$500. instead of $500. if desired. There
is now an ordinance before council
fixing the rate of the city license at
$500. Last Monday, when the ordin-
ance was drawn Gardner thought that
$500 was the limit that could be as
sessed in cities of Richmond's class.
Mayor Zimmerman Immediately
moved at a special meeting of the
board of works this morning, that the
ordinance be withdrawn from council
and the license rate fixed at $500 in.
stead of $500. making the entire total
license fee 800.
Gardner objected to changing the
ordinance, however. on the ground
that 1t is already before council, and if
that body desires an increase in the
rate it may amend the ordinance. The
mayors reason for wishing to with.
draw the ordinance Is that he fears
council will not raise the license fee.
The city attorney himself. although
not expressing definite opinion, says
if the county commissioners had fixed
the ratio of saloons at one for each
1000 inhabitants, instead of one for
each 500 the plan IF increasing the IL
cense fee would be more feasible.
No vote was taken by the board on
the mayors motion, but it is under
stood he will advise council to raise
the license fee Councilmen are not
in favor of the s7O0 license.
Honans statement to Attorney
Gardner was as follows:
"No saloon in operation before en-
actment of the Proctor law can be put
out of business because the number OF
saloons is more than the ratio fixed
by the county commissioners. Ii
censes of established saloons may be
renewed without regard to the ratio
when the applicant shows the proper
qualifications"
The attorney general said this in
depreciation was to be applied to In
dianapolis. Licenses may be sold
| transferred or business continued af
ter death of the person who originally
held the license, according to the at
| torney general.

FUND ESTABLISHED
FOR THE ORPHANS
Bequest of Miss Smith Placed
in Fund, Interest to
White Institute.

Because the estate of the late Mary
Emily Smith, who died in the summer
of 1909 is not large enough to meet
her desire that the money be used to
establish a home in the county for or.
phan children. DIR. E. B. Grosvenor
and A. A. Smith, executors of the es
tate, in their final report to Judge
Fox Friday request that the funds be
held in trust and the interest from the
principle go to Whites institute, Wa
bash. Ind. where most of Wayne coun
tvs orphans are sent.
The residue of the estate after 9th
err provisions in favor of relatives OF
the decedent had been fulfilled
amounted to approximately $13.25O
The executors propose that this money
be placed in the hands of two trus
tees. one of whom shall be trust
company, to be known as trustees OF
Mary Emily Smith fund" Not only dc
the executors propose that the princi
pie of the Mary Emily Smith fund be
kept intact but that the trustees shall
be empowered to receive other dona
tions subscribed for similar pur
pose.
The accruing earnings from the
principle of the trust fund shall be
used for the purpose which the deced
ent designated in her last will At al
times the judge of the Wayne circui,
court has the power to investigate as
to the condition of the trust fund anC
no money can be expended or distrib
uted without the courts order being
given.
The report of the executors has
not as yet been approved by Judge
Fox but undoubtedly will be. Ir
brief the report shows that the es
tate consists of a 100 acre farm o.
the value of $4,000 at least, and a per
sonal estate of s5.265.5S. making the
total amount approximately s13,265
The executors show that in settling uI
the estate, the expense of s1,055 wa:
incurred, including attorneys fees
their own fees, taxes. etc.

Today with Men Interest

In the interests of the general trac-

which he Is promoting, John G. Curtis
general manager of the Cincinnati,
Bluffton & Chicago Traction company
outlined his plan for the construction
OF the section of the road from Union
City to Harrison. O., at a meeting of
traction interests in the Commercial
club rooms this morning.
As eastern capital Is rather timid in
entering the western traction field,
Curtis declared that the line should
be financed by private subscriptions
for stock in the territory beneAted, or
by township subsidies.

ing OF A. L. Jenkins. Fred Charles

make close study Of the territory
between Richmond and Liberty next
week. Next Friday a meeting of the
general committee will be held at the
Commercial club. when decision will
be reached as TO whether or not the
company should be formed.
To Decide on Method.
In case it is decided to organize it,
the general committee will decide
whether or not private subscription or
township subsidies will be used as
a method of financing the new organi
zation.
Township subsidies were literally
voted to the c. II. & NJ. now the c. &
O.. when that road was built through
this section of the country. Wayne
township voted about s175.00O. The
general committee thinks the town
ship would vote as much or more for

greater benefit to the township.
Richmond is the hub of Curtis pros.
pective system. Only IS miles of the
line are now built. from Huntington to
