WOMAN SHOWED
THREE LICENSES,
BUT HAS 11 DOGS
After Being Discharged, She
Is Rearrested—s 7 Cases
Are Continued.
.Fifty-seven cases. In which the defend
ants are charged with violating cither
tfie State or the city license laws, were
called In city court today. In each case
a continuance was granted.
Some of the defendants were charged
with not having a State automobile truck
Utfcnse in compliance with the new law
passed by the recent Legislature. Others
filled to have city automobile trick
licet,?* and still others are alleged not
to have obtained city dog licenses.
Possibly the most Interesting no-dog
lMecse case was that of Mrs. Maud
Brown, 27. 241 North Elder avenue. She
was arrested yesterday by Patrolman
dogs, a dog that looked to me like a
showed the prosecutor three dog licenses
and the prosecutor, after viewing the
licenses, dismissed the case. A few
minutes later. Patrolman Hoclago ap
peared and when he asked the prosecutor
In regard to Mrs. Brown's case, was
informed that she had shown three dog
lWnses and the case had been dismissed.
THREE LICENSEB
BI T ELEVEN DOGS.
“Did she have only three do g licenses."
exclaimed the policeman. "I counted
eleven dogs at her home yesterday. There
was the big collie dog, a lot of poodle
dogs, a dog that loked to me like a
bulldog, and I don't know what kind
of dogs the others were but there were
eleven of them.”
The prosecutor advised the policeman
to rearrest Mrs. Brown and she was
again arrested and charged with not
bating enough dg licenses.
Mounted Officer Lambert arrested Jes 9
Taylor. 33, a driver for the Indianapolis
Coal Company, charging him with hav
lng an automobile in which there was
no State license. The caso was con
tinned In city court until Aug. 4. How
ever, there was an argument between
Mounted Officer Lambert and a man who
■aid that he was the yard man in charge
of the Indianapolis Coal Company's
trucks. This man said that he was using
“home-made" licenses painted on old li
cense plates on the coal companj's seven
trucks and that he expected to continue
using these licenses. He explained that
the company had obtained llceases for
their trucks, but the license plates had
been destroyed in a fire.
MI ST OBTAIN*
DUPLICATE PI.ATES.
Mounted Officer Bambert insisted that
It was necessary for the truck owners
to obtain new duplicate license plates at
the office of the secretary of State which
would cost $1 25 a pair. The argument
w.U be settled when Taylor's case is
tiled on Aug. 4.

ble resurrection of the old reactionary
progressive tilt and some of the more
timid openly express the wish that Mr.
Beveridge had accepted that ambassador
ship to Japan, or Yap, or Iceland, or
wherever he might have removed himself
from the Indiana arena. They den t like
the looks of things and admit If.
Senator New is here and ne Is pop
ular with the workers. He joined the
Party at breakfast this morning, after
caving spent the evening conferring with
Lake County leaders and he feels pretty
well satisfied that if he is obliged to
make a fight for the nomination be can
count on the faithful from this corner
cf Indiana. The i-ecator la too old and
too clever a politician to confess that he
fi' worried, but nevertheless he la losing
no opportunity to strengthen his fences.
That is reflected by bis appointments
and by the appointments of his friends
The Senator hopes to do by organization
what the Beveridge force* expect to do
by oratory.
SENATOR NEW
WHOLE SHOW.
Senator New is the whole show here
today for the popular, handshaking Jim
Watson 5a not in evidence. Watson's
genial personality, his great oratorical
powers and his beaming smile always
divide attention, but Jim is not a can
didate this year and has little to worry
about for a while. Perhaps he hasn't
forgotten 1916.
Aside from the discussions of the sen
atorial race, which is uppermost In the
minds of most Republicans, there are
half a dozen little booinleti being aired
In connection with the next gubernato
rial race. It is evident that Republicans
never tire of playing the game and they
seem to be nlwnys on the job.
R. M. Wamuth of Huntington, Repub
lican State chairman. Is pretty mn<-h In
evidence- Kd has his eyes on the Gov
ernor's chair and there are a lot of the
regular organization fellow* ready to go

LESH SAID
TO HATE BEE.
U. S. Lesh. attorney general, is said
by some to have the gubernatorial bee
in his bonnet. In fact tome of the
bigger leaders have intimated that his
candidacy would be mighty acceptable
provided that he does not stub his toe
in the next year or so.
Even the name of Charles W. Jewett,
mayor of Indianapolis, is mentioned In
connection with the Statebouse. Jewett
is known to have harbored political am
bitions. but after his candidate was so
decisively defeated by Samuel Lewis
Shank In the mayoralty primaries last
spring his luster as a political general
has been somewhat tarnished. However,
certain of the Marion County crowd hav*
a feeling that he would make a good
representative in the Governor's office
and they seem to be willing to again try
to nominate a man of their own ilk.

Captain Anderson was found IS mile:

vessel might have been a survivor of th(
old days of the corsairs. Six brawny
swarthy sailors comprised his crew, four
of them Canadians, one a Bailsman and
the skipper.
Guns lay about the deck in consplc-
soldiers. The troops did not have the
heart to fire on them and they staggered
into the city.
ARMY HORSES

Cavalry horses were sacrificed for
food, the city being unable to care for
the refugees otherwise. The fire depart

and misrepresentation were made by at
torneys for opponents and proponent* of

which opened at 2 o'clock in the after
noon and adjourned at 10 p in. Pro
ponents of the referendum were repre

the opponents of the election had their
ease in 'lie hands of William 11. Thomp
son of the legal firm of Miller. Dailey A
Thompson.
MANY PRESENT WHEN
HEARING OPENS.
Approximately one hundred persons
were In the council room In the city hall
when the hearing opened. The number,
however, thinned down to about tweuty
flve as the hearing progressed.
The hearing v.-us presided over by Dr
Sumner A. Kumiss, chairman of the
committee on election. Several of the
other eounellmen were present. Including
Russell Willson, president, and Gustave
Schmidt, who figured tn the return of
the remonstrance to the hands of the city
clerk when it bad been removed, after
being filed, by oppopests of the refer
endum.
The biggest sensation of the bearing
was created when G W. .Miller, who was
active In tbe circulation of the retnon-
Ktrnr.iV. charged he petition had t.eeu
altered after It had been released from
the cu vdv of the city clerk Names
had been added, be claimed, and other
names, originally written tn ink, had
been retraced with lead pencil, to create
the impression the names had been re
traced by proponents of the election, to
make them legal.

Witnesses produced by the attorney
for the opponents of the referendum con
sisted of bank officials who are qualified
as handwriting experts, who offered
testimony to show several page* of names

Evidence offered by Mr. Thompson, was
Intended to show that several of the
names on the petition were names of

years Additional evidence produced
tended to prove tlie signatures wort
forgeries, and letters were read wherein

ARCI E OVER BASIS OF
SIGNATURES REQUIRED.
Tbe b'g contention between the two
sides, throughout the hearing, seemed
to be the basis f->r deteiralnl g the num
her of signatures necessary to make the
remonstrance legal It wn conrended
by Mr Harding that the number of sig
natures was determined on a basis of 5
pe r cent of the registered voters who
cast a vote for secretary of State at the
last preceding general election, while
Mr. Thompson declared tho vote for sec
retary of State had no heart; g whatever
In determining the number of signatures
necessary. He declared the number of
legal voters residing in the city of Indi
anapolis would be the determining fac
tor.
On the latter basis. It was claimed 10.-
500 signatures would be necessary to
make the remonstrance valid, on a basis
of a voting population In the city of
217.727. Mr. Harding declared, however,
that only approximately .8,000 signatures
were necessary, although the remon
strance, as filed, contained more than
12.000 names.
Mr. Thompson presented evidence tend
ing to show that nearly 5.1 K) names on
the remonstrance should be stricken off.

WASHINGTON, July 28.—Betting
on horse races has been going on

The arrest followed complaints
from several congressmen that their

actual work.

said to have done nothing to dis

mon usage is to obtain the physical re

prejudiced. The State’s attorney may
defend the county by presenting affi
davits showing that ail the court is un
prejudiced and public sentiment fairly
divided. All the affidavits must be made
by bona fide voters of the county.
