suit in superior court four within a
few days.
I'VE are instructed to fight the
case to finish" Zechiel replied,
when asked if his client was at
tempting to settle with Mrs. Meter.
zechiel indicated the case soon
will come to trial in the county
court, as any attempt to transfer
the matter to a court of other juris-
diction would be futile.
1t had been reported that Jordan
was hoping to get the case trans
ferred to federal court.
Jordan, himself, recently declared,
Mrs. Melter will not get one cent
from me-"
Since the suit was filed, Jordan
has married and now is living in
New York. He claims Washington,

Mrs. Melter charges she met Jor-

engaged.

VOTE FOR POLICE

MorriSSey SuSpendS Anoth-

Police affairs were the subjects of
two resolutions adopted Monday
night by the executive committee of
the Indianapolis Federation of Com
munity Civic Clubs at meeting in
the office of the federation presi-
dent, Edward o. Snethen, Circle
Tower.
While the committee was voting
its opinion that police women
should be retained, Mrs. Margaret
V. Osborn, an officer, was suspended
by Chief Mike Morrissey. Three
other police women have lost their
positions in the last few months.
The second resolution opposes de-
motion of Lieutenant Frank Owen,
head of the accident prevention
bureau. Under the 1888 budget as
submitted to the city council, Owen
would be reduced to a sergeant.
Mrs. Osborn, 622 West Forty
first street, was suspended on Nor
risSey's charge that she failed to
make a report on a street car
automobile collision Sunday at
Fifty-Second street and College ave-
nue.. She contends there was no
need for a report, as no one was
injured and there was no law vio-
lation.
MorrisSey said today he suspended
Mrs. Osborn on complaint by "a
citizen" No charge has yet been
filed. Morrissey said he still is in
vestigating the case.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 13.-Har-

wheat belt Of the west.
John Josiah Wheat Farmer Esq,
grim and discouraged, reaps his
golden grain, loads it into trucks,
and sends it to market. He does
not expect it to bring him more
than 25 or 80 cents a bushel, scarce
ly enough to repay him for his seed
and labor, much less enable him to
feed his family another year, clothe
his children and send them to
school, pay taxes and the interest
on the mortgage he contracted when
wheat brought $1.50 a bushel.
He expects no relief this year, nor
the next, nor the next.
But across the horizon, ten years
in the future, he sights a ray of
hope, and it gives him heart for his
harvest work.

Somehow, young folk tied by
