Delaware Suffs

Decline to Take mo" and New Effort

Dover-Despite the decisive defeat
yesterday by the lower house of the
Delaware legislature of the resolution
to ratify the woman suffrage amend
ment, friends of the measure said to-
day it was by no means dead, as rati-
fcation resolution is still in the senate
and the parliamentary situation is not
such as to make it impossible to re-
consider the vote in the house. Suf-
fragist leaders were greatly encour-
aged by the announcement late last
night that Alfred I. Dupont would sup
port the resolution and declared they
would make every effort to have it re.
considered in the house when the legis-
lature reassembles on Monday. Until
last night Mr.. Dupont, who exerts a
powerful influence in Republican poll
tics of the state, had assumed a neu-
trail attitude in the suffrage fight and
his announcement caused jubilation in
the suffragists camp.

Harry SOrensen, Wanted for Forgery
at Kenosha, Not Under Arrest at
Fond du Lac.

Detective Charles Rock went to
Fond du Lac on Saturday to bring
Harry Sorensen here for trial on
charges of forgery, came back empty
handed. When he reached Fond du
Lac he found a man in jail charged
with forgery but when he took look
at him he promptly announced that
he was not Sorensen. The man had
given the name of John Hibberd and
he had admitted that he might have
been little careless in issuing checks
at one time or another. He was later
found to be a man wanted at Kewau
nee, ILL.,, and he was turned over to
officials from that county on Saturday.
81 wonder where the dickens Sorensen
is ?" was the comment of the Kenosha
detective when he got back home. He
and the rest of the police here are
still wondering but they know that he
is not in Jail at Fond du Lac.

ASKS FOR AIMS
TAKES A TAXI

You remember that old story of the
Kenosha pauper who went into the
Office of the pauper commissioner on
the morning of circus day and asked
for her five dollar allowance and then
took all the children to the circus
Well, she has been backed off the
boards by one Clarence Mccarthy, 10
years old, and held by the police as
deserter from the United States navy.
He told the police hard luck story.
He asked aims to get back to the sta
tion at Great Lakes and the police
officers wiped the tears from their
faces and dug down in their pockets
and gave him 70 cents. They even
took him out to the station in the
paddy wagon" and he got the car.
But he didn't stay on the car. Not
that fellow. He turned around and
walked right out again and with the
20 cents he had collected rode back
downtown in taxicab. He went past
the police wagon, jogging back to the
station, reclining on the sinking cush-
ions Of the taxicab like millionaire.
Failed to Get Away Though.
Clarence did not get away with it.
A minute later he was found by
police officer and taken to the station
again and now he is waiting for the
Great naval officials to come up and
get him. While he fingered waiting
for his Carve mean the taxi-he
picked up a suitcase out at the station
and it contained navy uniform.
The police also have Earl Darrol
who is believed to be deserter from
the navy. He was first picked up two
weeks ago but he was allowed to go
with the understanding that he was
going back to the station. He went to
Racine instead and the police are now
going to hold him until they find out
or not he is wanted by the
navy officials.

REINBERG HERE
SCANS GAS BILLS

Not "air" but "errors" was the
cause Of the sudden jump in gas bills
in Kenosha last month, according to
the informal report of Engineer Rein
berg of the Wisconsin Railroad Com
mission, who responded to an informal
complaint made to the commission and
came from Milwaukee to Kenosha to
make an examination of some of the
bills and check them up with the books
of the company. The report of the
engineer has not been filed with the
commission, or if it has, it has not
been forwarded to Kenosha, but he has
given an informal report to some of
the protesting patrons of the company
and it is admitted that this does not
indicate that the jump of the bills
was due to extra air pressure put
into the mains when factory when
a mistake and blew air into the mains
in place of. sucking it out.
Attorney Made Complaint.
The complaint to the commission
was made by Attorney A. E. Buckmas-
ter who paid his bill of double See
usual amount under protest. Other
people took, similar steps in paying the
bills. "Reinberg has informed me-"
said Attorney Buckmaster, chat the
trouble in the bill I had was book
keeping error and he said that it was
possible other bills were similarly af-
fected. The matter has been straight
ened out following his investigation
and l take it that others will get the
same treatment. He admitted the pos
sibility that there had been some
"curb reading" of meters, but 1 have
no information on this matter. All
sought in my appeal to the commits
sion was fair treatment for the pat
rons of the company"
1t was said that there was no idea
of any deliberate fraud on the part of
any employee Of the company, but that
the clerical errors which had crept in
may have caused mistakes. 1t is ex-
pected that some time later on a
formal report will be given the patrons.

Railroad Commission Sets April 18th as Date
for Hearing on Proposed Raise in
Rates to Be Charged for Water.
SHOWS GREAT NEED FOR EXTENSION
Water Board Submits Financial Statement in Connec-
ton with Petition Asking that Rate
Raise Be Ordered at Once

The Wisconsin Railroad Commission
today set April 10 as the date for hear
ing the petition Of the city Of Keno
sha for an advance in the water rates
to be charged in Kenosha and notice
of the hearing was served on John
@. Slater, city attorney, Frank eraser,
president of the water board, the
Kenosha Chamber of Commerce, George
Fischer, Jr., Norman J. Ross, Kenosha
Evening News, Charles Carlson and
Charles A. Tarbell as citizens and Of
fcials interested in the change in
water rates for the city. Copies Of
the petition filed by the city have been
sent to the interested parties with the
understanding that they may examine
the proposed rate and make such OBJ
jections as they see fit.
Growth of the City the Cause.
The petition of the city shows that
the cause for the demand of an in
creased rate for water is the rapid
growth of the city. In this regard the
petition says:
That by reason of the rapid and CON
tinual growth Of said city, the addi-
tion Of large territory thereto, the in
creased cost Of labor and material,
your petitioner is unable to furnish
or supply water to its patrons at the
rate fixed and established by your
, honorable commission, the said rates
being inadequate and insufficient
Your petitioner herewith submits
for consideration a revised schedule
Of water rates which may be sufficient
to enable your petitioner to properly
perform it's functions as public
utility in operating the said water
works plant and in furnishing and
supplying water to it's patrons, and
therefore appeals to the railroad COM
mission to fix or approve schedule
to become effective as soon as possible
and to grant such relief as may be
proper, equitable and just in the pre-
misses and in order that the said public
utility may be properly maintained.
New Rates Are Suggested.
In suggesting new rates to be adopt
ed by the commission to the city, the
commission submits an exhaustive re-
port showing operating expenses and
operating revenues. These figures are
based largely on the annual report of
the water board to the common council,
published some time ago. The com
mission says in regard to the pro-
posed rates:
Here Is revised schedule of water
rates for the city of Kenosha, Wiscon-
sin, submitted by the board of water
commissioners of Wisconsin for it's
approval the schedule to become eff
fective Immediately:

NERYY BURGLAR
VISITS GREETINGS

The nerviest burglar in Kenosha
made his debut at the Greening cloth
ing store on Rowland avenue Wedncs-
day evening. The Greening store was
burglarized recently and one of the
men sent up to prison, but this fact
evidently had no effect on last night
visitor who even announced his coming
with crash and clatter which was
heard for blocks IN the west side
district.
Burglar Is Discovered.
It was at e-thirty o'clock when
the sound of a terrific noise was
heard but persons who heard thought
that the noise emanated from one of
the many garages which are located
in the section. The Greetings live
above the store, but Mrs. Greening did
not connect the noise with their build
ing. About twenty minutes later Emil
Fox, night Waterman, made his rounds
and discovered a young man, in a long
visored cap which shaded his face,
Iooting articles in the back of the
store. He flashed on his light, and the
man, alarmed, fed through the back
door. 1t was evidently someone who
had made thorough study of the To-
cation of the store, for by the time
Fox was in the back alley there was no
trace of the man. After futile at
tempt to pick up the trail Fox re-
turned to the store, where Mr.. Green
ing, just returning from a meeting,
had discovered the burglary.
Door Barred and Bottled.
Since the first burglary special pre-
cautions have been taken to guard
against reoccurence and the read door
is fastened so securely with wooden
bars and iron bolts that it seems al
most impossible for anyone to have
forced open the door. The impossible
was done, however, and the person or
persons pushed open the door, the
crashing of the bars and bolts causing
the terrific noise which was heard for
blocks. That the work was presumably
done by one man seems probable from
the fact that both Fox and neighbor
obtained good glimpse of the burglar
in his fight through the alley.
Find Finger Prints.
The police have been working on the
case and new developments are ex-
pected when finger prints, indelibly
imprinted upon the glass of the door,
are examined. It has been impossible
to determine the loss to the store as
the man evidently knew the stock
and took only such articles
the theft of which could not be easily
discovered.
