WAR REVIEW
FOR THE DAY

LONDON, Oct. S. Roumanian
troops that invaded Bulgaria have
been defeated in battle and flung back
across the Danube. All reports receiv-
ed here today indicated that the Rou-
manians, suffering superior numbers,
escaped by crossing back over the
river.
Field Marshal Won Mackensen drew
two columns Of troops to encircie the
army Of invasion. Caught by the
movement the Roumanians had no
choice but to retire, which they did
speedily.
On the western front the fighting of
the past tWenty-four hours has been Of
minor Importance. The French cap
tured 900 guns from the Germans but
on that section Of the Somme held by
the British there were only artillery
duels.
Fighting Of greatest bitterness con.
tinues on the eastern front, the Austro-
German forces making a stubborn
stand especially in volhynea, before
the assaults of the Russians.

NEW YORK, Oct 5.-Most of the
chain restaurants" and lunch rooms
of New York City today fell in line
with those which yesterday suddenly
raised their prices on practically all
the dishes they serve The reason
given is that the prices of commodi-
ties have risen from 10 to 100 per
cent. within the last year.
Regular business mems noon
lunches which two days ago cost a
quarter, today cost 80 cents, and the
price of most individual dishes have
been raised. Potatoes have become
a luxury. Restauranteurs explained
today that last year Jersey potatoes
were $1.70 sack and that this year
they are quoted at $3.50. It is pre-
dicted that they will reach $6 before
long.
Other increases pointed out as the
causes of the rise in restaurant prices
are: Beans. $9.65 for 100 pounds, for
merly $3.50; peas. s675, formerly
$3.50; -four. $3.50, formerly $50;
eggs, A cents, formerly 36.

BOND FILES BRIEF
TO OBTAIN RULING
ON COMPENSATION

For the purpose Of definitely deter
mining whether the city has the au-
thority to make monthly payments,
under the state workmen's compensa-
tion act, out of its compensation in
surance fund, to the widows of the
two police officers murdered last July,
Mrs. G. M. Little and Mrs Elmer
Stephenson, City Attorney Bond has
fled brief with the state industrial
board in which the contention is made
that the city is not required to COM

their husbands were not city officers
but were state officers.

the interests of Mrs. Little and Mrs.
Stephenson, said today that before the

METER
CHARGE
IS MADE

That the Richmond City
Water Works company acted
without authority in charging
its patrons a meter rental the
first of this month in it's col
lection of payments for water
used the past three months,
was the statement made by
City Attorney Bond yester-
day by the Indiana Public
Utilities Commission when
he appeared before the COM
mission to protest against the
water company's action.
Will Not Allow Charge
"The commissioners will notify the
water works company that the Rich
mond water rate order, which became
operative August 1, gave it no author
ity to make a meter rental charge in
addition to the minimum monthly
service charge of so cents, and the
commission will notify the company
to this effect at once" City Attorney
Bond said today
The city attorney presented the re-
ceipted water bill of a city official
showing that he had been charged so
cents each month, the minimum rate,
for his water service and in addition
had been charged a so cent meter
rental.

the water company over the meter

JESSUP REFUSES
TO SETTLE DATE
OF EVANS CASE
SNy/k. rum SERWCE

Plans of the South Side Improve
ment association to get the Evans ap-
peal in the circuit court settled quick
ly, received a serious jolt today.
City Attorney Bond this morning
asked Wilfred Jessup, attorney for the
Evans family, to agree upon date
for trial. October 19 was one of the
first dates open and suitable for the
bearing. Mr.. Jessup merely laughed
and walked from sthe court room
This was taken by Mr. Bond to
mean that Mr.. Jessup8will not be ready
to try the case for some time yet
Declines His Reason
Mr.. Jessup declined to give any rea-
son why he did not want to set date
when Mr. Bond followed him into the
hall and he quickly switched the con-
versation to another subject.
1t is rumored that sale of the prop
erty Is on foot. The South Side asso-
ciation is anxious to get the suit out
of the way before the emergency ses-
sion of the county council is called to
act upon the bridge appropriations.
The report of ]. L. Harrington, Kan
sas City bridge expert, on the bridge
situation is expected within the next
two weeks.
The commissioners will call for a
session of the council soon after.
1t has been pointed out that it would
not be advisable to build the South G
street bridge until the appeal is set
tied. The Improvement association
fears that the council will hesitate to
make the appropriation until the case
is settled
