INDIANAPOLIS, May 2-when DIR.
Amelia Keller. president of the wom-
ans Franchise League. and a practic-
ing physician. arrived to open the con-
vention of that organization today. she
was a little tardy and somewhat
flushed. When asked what was the
matter. she informed a sister suffra-
gist that she had just welcomed a new
suffragist into the world. and had not
had any sleep.
How can We best win over the leg

session this afternoon. DIR. Keller. re-
calling the experience of the suffrage
workers who appealed to the recent
legislature, arose from her chair on
the platform an said: There Is only
one way to win over the legislature,
and that is to get out and collect ST.

swer created a profound sensation,
but she had not yet finished.

would scorn the use of money. but
such men are scarce in the Indiana

The names of several physical di-
rectors of various Y NJ c. A. organ
izations throughout the country are
being considered by the local Y. NJ. c.

very successful, and he has organized
several clubs and other organizations.
In 1910 he took charge of athletics
and gymnasium work in the public
schools, and since then regular instruc-
tors in this work have been appointed
by the school board.
During the past three years swim

ports, apparently from an authentic
source, indicate that a traction line
may soon be started from this city to
COnnersville and points south of that
city, which will eventually give an
outlet toward Cincinnati.
According to reported plans the IN
dianapolis and Eastern line, known as
the Honey Bee traction system, will
be the connecting link between the
lines north and south. The Terre
Haute, Indianapolis and Eastern trac-
ton line, operating between Indiana
polls and Richmond, with a spur at
Cambridge City to Milton, is an i'm
portant loop.
A subsidy was recently voted in
Fayette county which will make pos
sible the extension of the Indianapolis
ates between indianapolis and Con
nersville. A movement has already
been started looking to the voting of
another subsidy in Fayette county,
and the word from Connersville is
that the proposition will be favorably
acted upon. From Connersville also
comes the news that an organized eff
fort to secure right of way for the
extension of the lines through Frank
lin county would be approved.
Charles l.. Henry is at the head of
the Indianapolis and Cincinnati trac-
tinn limo on6 tho tinnc 0f hiC
concerns in Cincinnati make it seem
almost certain that such a thing as
building through from Connersville is
not an improbable feat.
The extension of the T. H. I. & E.
from Milton to Connersville or from
Dunreith to Rushville would complete
ly tie up the dead ends of two prom
inent interurban properties. The ex-
tension of the l. c. line from Con-
nersville to Cincinnati would give an
all trolley route from Fort Wayne to
that city, which, when properly con-
sidered, is not such wild railroad
dream as many might suppose.
The Honey Bee line has perfected
arrangements with the T. H. l. & E.
to use the station of the latter COM
pany for freight and passenger traf-
fic and through a working agreement
with connecting lines, and the build
ing of extensions from Milton to Con-
nersville and from COnnersville to
Cincinnati, the desires for an all troll
ley could be gratified easily, and it
is said that this program will be
worked out within a few years.

WALLACE'S TRIAL
OPENED IN COURT
Charge Assault and Battery
With Intent to Commit
Manslaughter.

The trial of the state against Will
liam Wallace charged with assault
and battery with intent to commit
manslaughter was started this morn
ing in the Wayne circuit court. The
case is being tried before a jury.
Wallace is charged with having as
saulted Jesse Killing on March 13,
1913, with an iron dray pin. Killing
testified that there was no provoca-
ton on. his part for the assault be-
ing committed. A conversation be-
tween the two was being held rela-
tive to the hitching of a horse and
Wallace remarked that his black horse
was lame. Killing testified that while
he was in the act of removing the
harness from one Of his horses in
order that the animal might drink
from a tub in a barn, Wallace struck
him with the iron bar, He rushed at
Killing cursing him and saying he
would kill him, according to Killing s
testimony. Both men are employed as
teamsters by Forrest Munger.
Killing said he was struck over the
head with the iron pin and fell to
his knees. When Killing struggled to
his feet he was again assaulted by
Wallace who struck him aver the
head again. The men then clinched
and Wallace was thrown against one
of the wagons. Killing stated that
he called for help and dragged his
advasery to the alley in the rear of
the barn.
Killing, on crOSS-eXamination, teSti-
fed as to trouble which the men had
had previous to this time. While un-
loading machinery from a box car
Wallace was said to have chided Hill
ling that he could not do a mans
work Killing responded that he
could haul as much machinery as
Wallace could. Insinuations against
Wallaces honesty, it is believed, tend
ed to open the breach which existed
between the two men.
Killing admitted that at one time
he had been in Jail for six months in
Rushville pending trial for murder
While employed in Rushville hauling
chickens Hilling shot a man who as
saulted him. He was acquitted by the
jury. Killing alleged that he shot in
self defense.
The jury is composed of w. S. Eli
ason, Frank Allison, Link Jones, JOS
eph D. King, Ed. Allen, Clarence l..
Pitts, Oliver Spencer. John w Retz,
J. E. Dunkan, Herman Osterman, Jas.

Frustrated. Several neighbors who
heard the shot ran into the Houck
home.
Many reasons are assigned for
Houck ending his life, principal among
which is the report that he had finan-
cial troubles. This, however. is deni-
ed by some, who declare that Mr..
Houck had been in ill health for some
time.
1t is said that Houck has had do

tributed to that alleged fact.
He is survived by the widow. an
adopted son, Richard, Il, a brother,

ton.
No note was left explaining reasons
for his rash act.

Long Discussion on The

{National News Association

WASHINGTON, May 2.-Represent-
ative Currie, of California, in the house
today offered an amendment to in
crease the duty on figs from 2 to 21a
cents per pound. The amendment was
rejected. A similar amendment af
fecting raisins was lost. Representa-
tive Hayes, of California, sought res
toration of the Payne law rate on
olives, but his amendment suffered the
fate.
Criticising the Democrats for levy
ing an annual tax of more than a half
million dollars on the poor mans
mince pie, Representative Willis, of
Ohio, Republican, moved to Zante
currants on the free list but was. de-
feated. Representative Hayes, of Coli
fornia, tried to have the duty on al
monds increased to 4 cents pound,
and to have the present duties on wal
nuts restored, but Sboth amendments
were rejected.
Representative Moore, of Pennsyl
vania, sought an increase in the duty
on peanuts, but the amendment was
killed
Representative Thomas assailed Re-
publican Leader Mann, reminding the
bewhiskered representative from
Illinois that it was shearing time. He
said the perambulation of Mann had
cost the government $10,000,000
'Is this some more of that moon

The Lemon Schedule.
The lemon tariff controversy came
up in the house again today, Republi-
cans contending that the rate on
lemons in the Underwood bill was too
low, and Democrats directing their fire
at the California lemon trust. Lemon
duties have been a source of dispute
for more than twenty years. The I'm
derwood rate on lemons is "a per cent.
In the Wilson bill of 1897 lemons car
ried a duty of 10 per cent. The pres
ent law carries lemons at per cent
Under the Underwood bill it is esti-
mdleu IndL Ine SduIoIuid ieHlOH pro-
ducers would lose control of all the
markets east of the Allegheny noun
tains. The present law. Democrats
contend, gives them absolute control
of the New York market despite the
cheapness of lemons raised in Sicily,
and the low freight rates across the
Atlantic.
California Republicans claimed the
Underwood rate was too low, and pro-
posed an amendment increasing the
duties to the level of the present law.
Leader Underwood continued to as
sert today that he would take no ac-
tion to shut off legitimate debate.

MAY CLOSE THE MILLS,

BOSTON, May 2-Sales of wool
have dropped again owing to conflict
ing reports from Washington regard
ing the tariff The trade is very ner-
vous. 90 dealers and manufacturers
are likely to proceed very cautiously
until the bil has passed. Recent sales
have reduced to considerable extent
the burdensome stocks of certain
grades, and the market is now in fairly
god shape to meet the proposed tariff
changes.
Predictions are being freely made
that many mills will close down for
longer of shorter terms, or until the
tariff uncertainty is removed.
