uance Of the Beaver Dam emergency

granted increase in rates to four tele-
phone companies. The Coon Valley
Farmers Telephone Company authorized
an increase Of $1.00 per quarter to all
telephones. The Western Wisconsin

UNCLE SAM
after PARTNERS
Revenue Collectors Seeking
Two Hundred of Them For
Failure To File Income
Tax Returns.
WILL ASSESS PENMTl
Deputy Revenue Officer Joseph Custer
Declares That Men Must Pay Pen
alties and Make Reports AS Well
Clearing Up 1918 Work.

Joseph Custer, Deputy United States
Revenue collector in charge of the
work of collecting the income tax in
Kenosha received today list Of some
two hundred Kenosha partnerships who
have failed to make proper returns to
the department and he is now busy cit
ing the members Of these partnerships
to appear and pay the penalty for their
neglect. Under the law partnership
is not assessed income taxes by the
Federal Government but every partner
ship is required to make a report in
order that the full facts may be known
in regard to the earnings of the people
employed by the partnership. 1t is
some time decidedly interesting in
making up the income statement Of one
or both of the partners. Of the long
list of partnerships in business in Ke-
nosha it is declared that but two of the
number have filed the reports required
by the Federal. government. The rest
Of them are liable to the penalty and
it must be collected.
"These people have all been notified
to make their reports, declared Gus
ter this morning, "and they have paid
absolutely no attention to the order.
Now they must pay the penalties. They
must as well make the belated reports
and the income statements of men en-
ployed by them are liable to be review
ed in the light of the new reports. -
It. is stated that the collectors are
now making the final cleanup of the
collection of the tax on 1918 incomes
and getting ready to start the work Of
making out reports for the 1919 assess
ments.
1t is declared that the work in Ke-
nosha city and county is now pretty
well cleared up and that with the fin
ing Of the partners and securing their
reports, the decks will be pretty well
cleared for the new levy.

No North Or South Main
Street In Kenosha When
Work Planned Is Carried
Out By City.
HOLD CONFERENCE TODAY
Members of Street Assessment Commit
tee Seek Final Adjustments That
Council May Take Final Action On
Contracts Friday Night.

The old ''Mason and Dixon line y
which has divided Kenosha ever since
John Bullen was active in founding the
town, is going to disappear when Main
street is improved, as the members of
the street assessment committee, which
met this afternoon to take some final
action on the plans for the construc-
ton of the new bridge and the straight
ening out of the street, declared that
when this work is completed "North
Main street. and ''South Main street y
is going to disappear from the maps o.
the city and Main street will run o.
way from Milwaukee avenue
north to English Court on the
1t may be necessary to ma sAe
change in the numbers on the street but
the members of the committee are Of the
opinion that this is greatly to be pre-
ferred to the division of the street.
At the meeting this afternoon the
committee took up with the officials of
the N. r.. Allen. Company exchanges of
property north of the Main street
bridge to carry out the plans for
aightening the street and it is
thought that the plans as made will be
worked out without serious difficulties.
1t is the plan of the committee to Sc
cure "a little added land at the inter
section of Grand avenue Ind the new
Main street with view of widening
out the curve in the roadway and MAX
ing it safer. 1t is feared that short
turn at tbs corner might offer danger
Gus competition to any campaign to
make the streets of the city safe for
traffic The committee is also consid
ering a plan to make a better curve at
the corner Of Milwaukee avenue and the
present North Main street by cutting
off a portion of the wide sidewalk lines
at this intersection.
The meeting this afternoon was in the
nature Of a cleanup meeting and it was
expected that q number of property
owners having claims in connection with
the proposed change in the street grades
would be heard. The committee has
been advised that all objections made
by the railway company to the order
of the commission will have been re-
moved by Friday night so that the City
Council may 60 ahead and let con
tracts for the work if the aldermen
are satisfied with the prices offered by
the contractors.
1t is declared by members of the com
mittee that it is not improbable that
the report will suggest that the city s
portion of the work be let to Greiling
Brothers and that the railway portion
of the work be let to Edward Gillen.
This would be a contract using the low
est combination of bids.
The companies interested with the
city in the improvement, have given
the understanding that they will insist
on "lowest bids contracts.

that they knew nothing about it. The

Estate Of the Late RinelIi
Settles With Chicago Man
Who Bought of Ar
cadia Lands.
MANY kENOsHANS lose
Statement To Court Shows Land Which
Had Been Sold Forming Kenosha
Colony In Florida Had Been Mort
gagged For Full Value.

The official bursting of the bubble
which had for it's feature the estab-
lishment of colony for Kenosha peo-
pie in the lands of the Arcadia Lands
Company in Florida came on Tuesday
afternoon in the County Court of Keno
sha county when the executors of the
estate of the late Sebastian Rinelli set
tied with Michaele Coylaonese of Chi
cago for a contract which he had made
with Rin6lli for the purchase Of lands
in the Arcadia subdivision. The claim
of the Chicago man, which amounted
to $1,000, was settled by the executors
Of the estate for $1,345. The Chicago
man had been one of the men who had
sought to purchase land in the Arcadia
plot and he was willing to make the
last payment on the land if the execu-
tors of the Rinelli estate could furnish
him a deed to the property. They 'ad:
mitted that they could not furnish such
q deed.
The Arcadia colony caught in its web
probably two scores of Kenosha people.
The colony was organized by the late
Sebastian Rinelli and the Rev. Father
Bandizonne, one time pastor in Keno
sha, had been active in the work of the
organization. No blame is attached to
any of the originators for the failure
of the scheme, but it was stated in the
court that probably $4,000 would not
represent the losses sustained by the
Kenosha people.
The land which was offered for sale
was good land, well located, but the
promoters Of the plan did not know
that a great mortgage had been placed
on it until after most of the land CON
tracts had been closed up and the PEG
pie had paid their money. 1t was at
this time that the owners of the mort
gage on the land foreclosed and the
people found that there was nothing to
be decided to them. Rinelli was active
in efforts to clear up the transaction
when he died out in Idaho some time
ago. Not single other claim was filed
against the Rinelli estate as a result of
the colony plan and the time for the
fling of such claims has now expired.
