steady growth of interest in rail-

originated at western and south

prospects.
Among traders and the profess
sional element there has also been
considerable switching of accounts
from industrials to the rails.

GETS GIRL BACK IN
RAID ON GYPSIES

HAVANA, Cuba, July 13-Jessie Cos
tello, 10 years old, daughter Of John
Costello of St. Louis, Mo, said to have
been missing from her home since
April 25, was rescued tonight by de-
tectives who raided house in the
Jesus Delmonte suburb Of Havana and
arrested a gypsy woman named Milano
Marino and her son and daughter,
George and Anna.
The raid was made at the solicita-
tion Of the girls father, who, the po-
lice say, has been on the trail of the
childs alleged abductors for more than
month. Besides abduction of the
child, Costello charged the gypsies
with having robbed him Of $1,750 in
money, which according to the authori-
ties, was found in the raided house.
ST. LOUIS, Mo, July 14-Both
John Costello and Jessie Costello,
whom the former is reported to have
rescued from gypsies in Havana last
night were arrested here last May on
suspicion. The girl at the time &C.
cording to police reports, declared her
correct name to be Angelina Marino
and that Costello had obtained her
from her father, who she said resided
in Philadelphia, in trade for one OF
his own children.

JAPAN WANTS PEACE
SAYS DIR. SCHURMAN
(By Associated Press)

NEW YORK, July 14.-Appoint-
ment Of Japanese-American joint
high commission by the two govern
ments to study the question of Japan
ese immigration to this country was
advocated by Dr.. Jacob Gould Schur-
man, former president of Cornell uni
versity, in an address at a luncheon
of the council on foreign relations
here today.
1--WE have not outside this hemi-
sphere any problems so difficult and
delicate as those affecting our rela-
tions with Japan" declared DR..
Schurman, who has just returned
from an extensive tour of the Orient
in a party with Frank A. Vanderlip.
former president of the National City
bank "Yet more than any other they
have been made the football of party
politicians 1t is high time our ma
tional government took them serious
ly in hand"
"My dominant impression of ia
pan," Dr. Schurman continued, "is
that Japan is profoundly desirous of
maintaining peace and friendship with
the United States and that for the &C.
complishment of that end she is ready
to make all the concessions and sacri.
fices which a sensitive, high-spirited
and powerful nation could be neces-
sarily expected to undertake."

(By Associated Press)

SACRAMENTO. Cal, July IA
First hand study Of the Japanese prob

tinued today by members Of the house
immigration and naturalization com
mittee, who were to spend the day in
taking evidence in this district, where
according to evidence heard yester-
day, the Japanese are more central
lied than in any other portion of the
state.
Two members OF the committee who
yesterday visited the town Of Florin.
a Japanese settlement nearby, re-
ported at the hearing last night they
found but two Japanese children on
the street. The visit was unannounced
John Reese. the only American mer
chant in the town, told the committee
that the word had been passed among
the Japanese to keep the children out
of sight while the committee was in
this part Of the state.

Thomas c. Eliason, Wayne
County Pioneer, Celebrates
Eighty-Fo Fourth Birthday

Mr.. Thomas G. Eliason celebrated

stead, Saturday. July 10. Mr.. Eliason
was kept busy the entire day raceiv-
ing congratulations from friends and
relatives. Although confined to his
room since December last he has
shown a marked interest in the hap
penings of the outside world
Mr. Eliason has seen the origin OF
many of Richmond's oldest firms and
recalls many interesting incidents Of
the early days, and the great curiosity
which accompanied the first train
through Wayne county. He has
known this county from it's first state
of wilderness, his father having pur-
chased the present tract Of land
known as the Eliason homestead from
the government 106 years ago, 2 years
before Indiana became a state.
He has been a reader Of the Pal
ladium for 20 years and used to drive
to Richmond for the sole purpose Of
getting his weekly copy. He con-
siders the mail service one Of the
greatest conveniences the farmers
enjoy.

MAYORS OFFICE MAY
Be VACATED AS HE
LEAVES FOR A REST?

When Mayor w w Zimmerman
leaves the city on his vacation of 80
days. extended to him Monday evening
by the city council, will a vacancy
occur in the office of mayor?
Under the state law provision Is
made that in the event of vacancy
in the office Of mayor the city con-
troller shall assume that office, and he
is fully empowered to act as mayor un-
til a new mayor is elected and as
sumes office, but the controller is not
permitted, in such contingency. to
continue to serve as controller. 1t is
provided that the acting mayor shall
appoint an acting controller.
In the event Mayor Zimmerman's
80 days leave of absence constitutes
no vacancy in his office, and City
Attorney B. C. Robbins is inclined to
believe that it does not, it would ap-
pear that the controller has no au-
thority to serve as acting mayor in
any capacity. Mr. Robbins has not
thoroughly investigated the question.
Won't Make Much Difference.
Mr.. Robbins is of the opinion that
under normal conditions the absence
Of the mayor from the city will make
little or no difference in the conduct
of municipal affairs.
He mentioned the fact that the law
requires that the mayor shall either
approve or disapprove each ordinance
passed by council. He pointed out
however, that all ordinaces enacted
by council can be mailed to the mayor
for his consideration. In the event
the mayor fails to act upon an ordin-
ance within 10 days after its passage,
it is automatically disapproved but it
can become law if council passes it
again by two-thirds vote.
The ordinary management Of city
affairs is in the hands of the board
of public works, so the mayors alb.
sence would have no influence on the
work of that body. S. K. Morgan, q
justice of the peace, will preside ove1
city court, his salary to be paid by
the mayor.
