Members of the Works Board
gasped yesterday when seven con-
struction firms submitted identical
bids for the Works Progress Admin
istration improvement of w. Mich
igan-St from Indiana-av to White
River.
These bids of $15577 included
supervision, management and rent
al of equipment for the work The
WPA will pay labor costs and the
city will furnish materials.
Firms bidding were the Cooper
Construction Co., Indiana Asphalt
Paving Co., William D. VOgel, Co.
lumbia Construction Co., J. N. Nor
gan & Sons Co., Union Asphalt
Construction Co., and the Hoosier
Construction Co.
After making some remarks about
single track minds" the Works

CITY, COMP ANY
SHARE COST OF
TRACK REMOVAL
Car Line to Pay for Part of
Repairs in Money or
Old Rails.

Property owners Will not have to
pay for removal Of street car tracks
on those lines where traCkless trolley
and bus service have been put into
effect, Ernest F. Frick, Works Board
secretary, promised today.
He pointed out that the city has
two agreements with the Indianap-
oils Railways, Inc, either one Of
which, would completely pay the re-
moval and patching costs.
One agreement provides that the
street car company pay percentage
OF the total reconstruction or re-
surfaclng cost, and the other gives
the city the right to remove the
rails and sell them.
Cost of Steel Factor
(which one of these agreements
we will use depends entirely on the
price of scrap Steel" Mr.. Frick said.
If we can get more by salvaging
the rails and then use that money
to match our $5OO,OOOO Federal street
Improvement fund we will follow
this second agreement. Otherwise.
the street car company will have TO
live up to the terms of the old
contract
In cases where the rails are re-
moved and the street later is paved.

then the porperty owners will have

line or not, he declared.
The salvaging agreement was
made when the Marion County
Commissioners froze a large part
of the city's gasoline tax revenue
by two law suits.
City Lacks Funds for Materials
The Works Progress Administra-
ton had given the city half a mil
lion dollars to spend for street i'm
prOvement, but Henry B. Steeg, city
engineer, said the city did not have
enough money to buy materials for
these projects. Federal money can
be used for labor costs only.
City officials felt that if they
could get a good price for these
rails, they then would be in a posi-
ton to start several new street i'm
prOvement projects.
Federal money will not be used
to pave streets in neighborhoods
where property owners are able to
pay assessments. The Works Board
decided that the $5OO,OOO will be
used to pay for improvements in
those sections where property own
ers can not meet their share of the
cost.

BEETLE ETH HORDES
 WIDEN RAVACES
Pests Retirement Leaves Path of Destruction in
 Eastern States

Philadelphia (UP).-The annual invading hordes of Japanese beetles have retired after their 18th sea- son, leaving g path of destruction through plant and tree life in five eastern states.
 While the beetle retires, leaving nibbled roses, threadbare hollyhocks an trees shorn of their foliage and fruit, his enemy-the entomologist is working for his destruction in research laboratories throughout the infested area.
 This year, the insects spread over a larger area than in 1884, accord- ing to Dr. I. M. Hawley, senior entoinologist in charge of the bio- logical department of the Japanese beetle research laboratories at Moorestown, N. J.
 Extends to Maryland
 Northern New Jersey, north- eastern Maryland, northern Dela- ware and the southern tip of New York were the scenes of new in- vasions as the hordes spread vest ward in Pennsylvania as far as Lancaster.
 Each year, they usually travel from five to ten miles further than the preceding year, but their 1885
 Although he could not give a complete explanation for this new advance. Dr. Hawley said that there had been isolated colonies of the beetles in many new areas and these probably had spread out to meet their kind in the main dis- trict.
 The onslaught in the affected area was particularly heavy this year. The bugs did not stay in the countryside, but invaded cities, blinding motorists, perching on pedestrians shoulders-and getting in their hair.
 Weather Important Factor "The favorable weather conditions caused the presence. of @ few more than usual in the old area" Dr.. Hawley says. "A dry spell in July or early August would kill many of the larvae, but this year and last, we had wet weather at that time so larvae developed into healthy beetles"
 But each time the, insect gains 8 victory, the research workers counter with the discovery of a new insecticides more effective antagonistic parasite, or some new point of attack.
 Dr. Walter E. Fleming, entomo- gologist in charge of insecticidal investigation at the Mooretown laboratories, said that a new list of e-fighting sprays will be ready soon for shade and deciduous trees.

$120, 900 Sought In
 Taxes From Capone
Uncle Sam Demanding All Justly Due Liquor Levies; Little Sympathy to Be Shown DetirOned OverIOrd

O,Banion's career was later ended in the sp-called @kaudshake" fl1rr- der. John Tprio, notorious former beer baron and racketeer, was also arrested at this brewery and setl- tenced to nine months in jail and fined $5,O00. Torio was murdered later.
 Capone became the real power, aided by F1sco and Delaney. He directed the traffic from his head quarters in Chicago hotel and from his mansion in Miami.
 MT. Lawrence stated the old rec crds indicate that among the nick- names of Capone and his l1encEi- men. were the following: snorlly, Bragger, Scarface, Big Fellow, Rusty. Dutch, Little Jack, Greasy Thumb and Loud-mouth Hymie.
 It was testified, in Q divorce pro- ceeding, by the wife of John J. Nolan that Nolan made . knilliprl dollars selling illegal beer. When questioned as to her personal knowledge of this fact, she replied, T not only kept the house for that fellow, I kept the books, too" The record also shows that printed cop ies of the license numbers of all automobiles driven by government agents were found in the possession of one of the alleged conspirators. These were printed for distribution to. the members and employees of the syndicate, with instructions to "be on their guard"
 Col0rful Stan
 It was revealed that these ale legged conspirators had regular titles similar to those held by men in le- gitinnate industry. For example, re- ports show Joseph Fusco was the general manager and purchasing agent for the syndicate for trucks and beer-rtlaking equipment; Jack Guzik was financial secretary and in charge of operations in the ab- sence of Capoile; Lyman Levine was the collector for the syndicate; Steve Swoboda was the breWInas- ter; Frank Juffra was chief-in- charge of Wort transportation; AL bert Johnson was chief beer truck driver and special convoy man and Nicholas Juffra was organizer ant president of the world Motor Ser. vice Company, which did practical ly all of the trucking for the syn. dicate.
 Attorney General Cummings is determined to make all tax evaderi pay the government what is justly due 1t and that is all," said Mir Lawrence to-day. We are exceed. ingly careful, following his specific instructions, not to be arbitrary ol oppressive and to assert liability ir such cases IS this only when there Is reasonable evidence of 1t"
 The. other members, in addition to those already named, linked witt FAl Capone by the taxes and pen aities unit include his brother Ralph Capone, August Dodd Charles Fuehrmeyer, George A Hewlett and Mike Lopristi.

SECRET AGENTS EYE SINGAPORE
Big Cache of Dynamite Found Belonging to Japs
 in Private House

Singapore (U.P)-secret service men of Singapore again are keep ing close watch upon Japanese. ~ Excitement over the Japanese spy scare last December scarcely had died when 1t was learned that ,a big cache of dynamite had been found in a private house in Singa- pore belonging to Japanese.
 Recently quantities of explosives were stolen from the military works at Changi, and the police took up the trail Of the thieves. They raid- ed the house and the occupants fed, trying to check the pursuit by throwing a sack of explosives be- hind them. But they were caught and ,arraigned on charges of being in possession of thE dynamite ille- gally. The raiders also found sacks of cocaine in the house.
 This case has revived anxiety among the British residents of Shanghai about the activities of their Japanese 1leighbors in this key point of the British defense system.
 Last December there was a seri- ous spy scare In Singapore when g seties of mysterious events occurred. Y. Nishimura, a Japanese busi- ness man, fell dead while entering police headquarters to be inter- viewed. Two days later two Japa- nese were arrested on charges of suspected espionage, and were to be deported. Soon afterward police raided a Japanese hotel here, and several Japanese were escorted to police headquarters. Later more de- .portation warrants were issued. After this scare the laws govern ing the description of the Stnga- pore Base and kindred subjects were frightened and all seemed quiet again until the discovery of the eaxret cache of dynamite.

GOLD FLOW TO u. S.
REACHES new HIGH
1884 Import Put in Stocks as
Foreign Capital Seeks
Safety.

BY the Associated Press.
The Bureau of Foreign Commerce
has reported that more gold flowed
into the United States from foreign
countries in 1884 than in any previous
year in the history of the country.
The record import of Sl,187, ,000. 900
worth of gold, which exceeded pre-
vious records even on the old dollar
value basis, was credited by the bureau
partly to the return of American capi-
tai, which had fed this country, and
partly to a rush of foreign capital to
America. seeking to escape the un-
settled monetary conditions abroad.
The figures were contained in the
annual report on the balance of in
ternational payments, given by Amos
E. Taylor, finance officer of the Com
merce Department Bureau.
The devaluation of the dollar to Sc
per cent of its former gold value on
January 81. 1884. the report said. was
the signal for "one of the largest in
ternational gold movements ever re-
corded"
The largest export business since
1880 had to be paid for, and that
brought more gold.
Most of the refuge" foreign money
which came to America in 1884 went
into the stock market, the bureau said.
One Commerce Department official,
who preferred his name be not used.
said that when international money
markets we're upset. America tried to
eliminate the danger of foreigners
leaving money in the United States
which could be pulled out suddenly
by imposition of restrictive measures
on European bank balances and for
eign exchange holdings in America.
Instead of going into bonds, the new
flow of foreign capital entered the
stock market.
A sudden change in the foreign at
titude toward America. or the appear
ance of a safer shelter in Europe, the
department official said. would result
in the quick sale of these stocks on
the United States market.
