ment Above All Routes

PROMISES HIS
Believes Boosters Must Get

From Government for
Road.

Rep. Finly H. Gray of the Sixth In
diana district was in the city today
and had much to say in approval of
the movement being so actively sup
ported in Wayne county to have the
federal government select the Nation
al Old Trails route as transconti-
mental highway, but he made very lit
tie comment on the situation existing
between the United States and Ger
many, on the one hand, and the Unit
ed States and Mexico on the other.
Our International complica tions. it
must be admitted, are acute at this
time," Mr.. Gray gravely remarked.
He said that he might give out a
statement tomorrow setting forth his
opinions on the situat tion.
Help for Road.
whenever you get ready to build
the National road. I am for you and
will support the movement"
This was the statement made by
Mr.. Gray in a discussion today with
DR. |. S. Harold and Lawrence Hand
ley, who are taking active part in
boosting the naturalization of the
old highway.
Congressman Gray spent part of the
day in the city calling on friends.
Mr.. Gray called attention to the
publicity work of the Lincoln highway
and said the promoters of that road
were exerting tremendous pressure at
Washington to obtain government aid
fer that route. He said he believed
ii the government built a national
I,eMway at this time it would be the
iNcoln highway and that it behooved
me National Old Trails advocates to
become very active at once
Spend Much Money
The Lincoln highway people are
spending much money to get their
project before the public. The large
cities OF the north are spending thous-
ands of dollars boosting the claims of
the Lincoln highway.
Mr.. Gray indicated that he would
back and assist the Old Trails move
ment.
The Old Trails route passes direct
ly through my district; why shouldn't
| be heartily in favor of it against all
other routes? 1t is also the best of
the three contemplated routes" he re-
marked. The day of the continental
highways is here and in my opinion
government funds can be much better
expended for the maintenance of such
roads than in making so-called i'm
provements Of non-naviga BILE rivers"

TRACTION COMPANY

COUNTY RATE CASE

An answer filed in circuit court to-
company to the countv's suit to re-
store the former reduced traction
rates declares the county commits
sioners exceeded their authority in
1901 by stipulating the rates of fare
and that the public utilities commits
sion considered and disapproved a
special request of the traction com
pany that the schedule here, remain
unchanged
Within the answer is copy Of the
petition of the traction company to
the utilities commission asking that
rates be made uniformly two cents a
mile on all lines except in Wayne
county and that the fare within the
city limits be five cents. The traction
company pointed out that under the
former five cent unit fare system the
charge per mile in some cases was
less than one and one-half cents
The ruling of the board against dis
eliminating in the case of Wayne
county together with a special order
made by the utilities commission spec

county and the general order for two
cent rate on all other lines Of the T.

County Attorney Hoelscher said to-
day he will file demurrer to the an
swer to have it thrown out of court
on the grounds that it is an argumen-
tative denial and not plain statement
Of facts.
Il still entertain no hope of victory
for the county, said Mr.. Hoelscher.

DOES REVENUE
Law APPLY TO
TRUCK LINES?
Question of Placing Stamps
on Bills of Lading Puzzles
Shippers and Local Car
riers.

Alleged violations of the federal
statute requiring a war tax stamp of
one cent on every bill of lading or
manifest attached to shipments of
commodities from Richmond shippers
have been called to the attention OF
Peter J. Kruver. state internal reve-
nue. collector at indianapolis, it was
declared here today.
These violations deal exclusively
with shipments made through the au-
tomobile trucks and hacks running
from Richmond to neighboring towns
One Richmond shipper explained that
he had failed to attach stamps TO this
kind OF consignments because he mis-
interpreted the law believing that the
bus lines were excluded from the car
riers required to accept only bills OF
lading carrying the authorized stamps.
He explained that he had no desire
wantonly or fragrantly to violate the
law and expressed his belief that the
other cases of violations which had
been reported were the result Of SINH
lar understanding of the statute.
The bill which subjected shipments
to taxation of one cent and went into
effect on December 81, read, that all
railroads and other carriers must is
sue a bill of lading, manifest or other
evidence of receipt" bearing the stamp.
Both shipper and carrier is liable to
a fine of $50 for each offense.
It is the consensus OF opinion among
the officials of Richmond banks, which
are the only institutions supply the
stamps. that other carriers" include
the bus lines and hacks.
When the law went into effect, both
hack drivers and shippers purchased
a large number of the stamps, but with
the passing of time, they became lax
in stamping the bills of lading and re-
ceipts until they decided that the law
did not include them as carriers.

Along Lower San River.

VIENNA, June 3 The Galician
stronghold. Przemysl. which was cap
tured from the Austrians by Rus
sian army in March. has been recap
tured by the Austro-German forces
who entered that place at o'clock
this morning. it is officially an
nounced.
This is the greatest victory won by
the Austro-German forces since Gen.
Won Mackensen launched his mighty
offensive movement against the Rus.
slams in northern Galicia six weeks
ago. The official announcement was
brief it is said
"Przemysl was retaken by Us to-
day"
Russian Loss Heavy.
Previously 1t had been officially an
nounced that the AIstro-German fore
es of Gen. Mackensen had stormed
four of the Russian forts north and
northeast of the city. 1t is acknowl
edged that the AustroGerman loss o.
life was heavy. Four whole regiment
Of infantry were hurled against thu
Russian defenses. Both the city and
forts surrounding it, had been ba'.
tered by a long and tremendous bon-
bardment of twelve, fourteen and si.-
teen-inch howitzers.
The Russians fought bravely. but
lacked artillery and ammunition. Fol-
lowing the mighty night and day can
nonade, the Austrians and Germans
swept forward In a great bayonet
charge. Many Russians are reportsd d
to have been captured as we'll as a
vast quantity OF supplies.
Army In Retreat.
The remnant of the Russian army
at Przemysl is unofficially reported o
be In retreat toward the east The
Austro-German forces are now reaay
to launch a great drive for the recap
ture of Lemberg, the only remaining
city of importance held by the Rus
slams in Galicia. Military experts
rank the Austro-German offensive In
northern Galicia which has been
crowned by the magnificent victory
at Przemysl as one of the greatest ex-
ploits of the war.
Przemysl fell into the hands of the
Russians on March % after a siege OF
about six months.
Bring Up Big Guns.
A number of forts defending Pre-
mysl had been practically destroyed
by the Austrians before surrendering
to the Russians and the Russians cid
not have time to repair them before
the Austro-German army began its at
tack. The Germans showed marvel
Gus efficiency in moving their heavy
guns forward over bad roads in time
to take part in the last stage OF the
assault.
Przemysl is an important railway
center. Its capture releases a huge
Austrian force for operations against
the Russians along the lower valley o.
the San river. 1t is estimated tlat
the Russian army of defensive mum
bered closely to 25O.o men. but not
all were in the city.

JUDGE PRINCE AND .C0NDRAY IN DEBATE MEET Al REPUBLICAN AUTHOR WINS VOTES FOR HIS ROAD LAW, ACCORDING TO
 REPORT.

Representative c. T. Condray, au- thor of the good road bill which bears his name, and Judge P. H. Prince of Conway met in debate at Mr. Con- drays appointment at Republican last night. Over the telephone today Os- ear Lyons, well-known merchant of Republican, stated to the Log Cabin Democrat that MT. Condray clearly bested Judge Prince in the debate and
 won many votes for the proposed
 law.
 Mr. Condray spoke for 15 minutes, explaining the details of the law and
 assuring his hearers it was not the dangerous proposition which many had said it was. He was followed by
 Judge Prince, who spoke 40 minutes severely attacking the provisions of the bill and the commissioners named in it. Mr. Condray in a rejoinder spoke for about 30 minutes and took up and answered each objection rais- ed by Judge Prince.
 MT. Condray announced that he had invited Judge Prince to meet him at every appointment. They left Re publican this morning for Guy, where they were scheduled to speak at 2 o'clock this afternoon.
