sentenced TO Jackson prison for two

MAYOR LIKELY TO LOSE

Mayor Thompson. who is now ad-
Vocatlng the passage of the Thomp-
son street car franchise, TO hear him
tell 1t, was very active among the
republican aldermen In the commit
lee room OF the council chamber,
tuesday morning, trying To persuade
them not TO disturb the Thompson
Harpfer program for submitting the
franchise TO the people Jan. 23, as il
went through the council last Tues
day night, with the aid OF the steam
roller. He pleaded with them earn
estly not TO insist on submitting the
Vernon civil service measure along
with the Thompson and Gilman pro-
positions.
The mayor even tackled Aid. Koe-
mig, who filed the notice of reconsid-
Grafton on the street car measures,
but Koenig was firm and the present
outlook is that Koenig will have
enough votes TO swing the reconsid-
Grafton tonight. The spectacle of the
mayor of the city lobbying among
the aldermen was a rather unusual
one, and was the occasion for no lit
tie comment on the part of the city
dads.
In the event of reconsideration
Koenig and his colleagues will insist
first of all on a change Ia the word
ing OF the Thompson proposition as
the council resolution orders 1t sub
mitted. Most of the aldermen who
voted aye" last week are now con-
vinced that the form in which the
proposition is stated is most unfair,
inasmuch as it mentions only the ad-
xyo.a fn Of.
and none of its disadvantages. There
is no reference at all TO the fact that
the city will have TO assume the paw
Ing burden. and Judge Hally, who
drafted the resolution as corporation
counsel, has been sharply criticised
because of 1t. Koenig's idea is that
the proposition should be stated in

BATTLE FOR THREE-CENT
FARES ON IN TOLEDO
Mayor Whitlock Is To Sign City
Ordinance Which Demands
Cut Rate.

TOLEDO, Ohio, Jan. 2.-The people
OF Toledo VS.. the street railway com
pany. This is the lineup for battle
which viii probably y@staft TIT oledo to-
day when Mayor Brand WhitlocK is
expected TO sign a city ordinance pass
ed last night which amounts TO an ap-
peal to the people to take charge OF
their own franchise rights on all
street car lines and force three-cent
fare. o,.
The ordinance, framed by City Sol
licitor Schrieber. forces an, arbitrary
three-cent fare provision on the car
company tovbe effective until a per-
manent franchise is drawn. The ordi-
nance holds that the street car fare
of the city is three cents and the peo-
pie are called upon to pay no more.
Schrieber stands ready 10 bring suit
for damages for any person who may
be evicted from car when refusing
TO pay higher fare.
II is not known what move the car
company contemplates 20 meet the
city ordinance. but II appears II must
either submit or the lines will be
practically paralyzed.
Although the three-cent fare ordi.
nance has not yet gone into effect,
the citizens today insisted on assert
ing their rights But one case Of vio-
fence fs reported, one man being
severely beaten when he refused
either TO pay FIVE cents or get OF the
car. In most cases the passengers re.
fuse TO pay the FIVE cents and then
force the crew 30 carry them from
the car. One motorman and con
ductor carried on bodily eight husky
