Breach Between Municipal
Body and Its Attorney
Has Been Widened.
WORKM
ONANIOOSLYASKED
CANT BE A DICTATOR.
HOWEVER, IT SEEMS TO BE GEN
ERAL IMPRESSION THAT MR.
STUDY WAS RIGHT IN HIS TRAC
TION CONTENTION.
City Attorney T. J. Study is still very
wroth over the action of council sus
pending the Main street freight car or
dinance for a period of one month. Mr.
Study admits that Mayor Sohillinger,
ly holding up the suspension ordi
nance for ten days and then placing
liis veto on it, can make the measure
ineffective, but that does not tool his
indignation against the city fathers.
Mr. Study states that he is afraid the
traction officials will gain the impres
sion that they can make monkeys of
the council. He also accuses council
of having no backbone.
"Just when a satisfactory agreement
between the city and the traction com
pany was about to be made, council in
terferes and now it is probable that ev
erything will end in a farce." bitterly
complained the city attorney. He is
about ready to give up the fight.
Are on a War Footing.
The breach between the city attor
ney and council, which started last fall
when he fought the appropriation for
Held Memorial hospital, has been grad
ually widening and at the present time
council and Mr. Study are ou a war
footing.
Council resents the efforts of the city
attorney to dictate what it shall and
shall not do and council loses no op
portunity in "handing it out" to the
city's legal adiser. One of the coun
cilmen states that he hopes Mr. Study
will soon awake to the fact that he
cannot ride council with whip and
Bpur. )
Can't Dictate to Council.
"Mr. Study may run the mayor,
board of public works and some other
departments of city government, but
He cannot dictate to a republican, coun
cil," said this councilman. - - "He takes
as active part in debates at council
meetings as the councilmen do them
seles. Eery action brought before
council brings! Mr. Study to his feet.
telling us what we shall or shall not
do. Council has been very patient with
the city attorney, but he cannot con
tinue these tactics much longer."
Hint to the Attorney.
It is generally regarded that coun
cil's action Monday night in suspend
Jng the Main street freight car ordi
nance was a "sassy" method on the
part of council in telling Mr. Study to
attend to his knitting and offer ad-
ice when asked for. However, it seems
to be the general impression that in
his fight with council Monday night,
the city attorney was in the right.
WAS WELL KNOWN HERE
Mrs. Martha E. Pratt Dies at
'ndianapolis.
MINISTER AMONG FRIENDS.
Mrs. Martha E. Pratt, whose death
Is announced from Indianapolis, was
well known to the older members of
the Friends' church in Richmond and
Wayne county. She was known as a
doctor, nurse, minister and needle art
1st. Her youngest child, with whom
phe made her home, is Mrs. Hannah
Tratt Jessup. whose work in the min
Jstry has made her known to Friends'
churches from Maine to California.
Mrs. Pratt was the mother of four chil
dren, three of whom survive her. Her
eon, Charles B. Pratt, was an attorney
of prominence, read his bible in thir
teen languages, and was at one time
president of the Council in Boston.

ELECTRICAL DISPLAY ON.

at Craighead's Establish
ment Attractive.
The electrical cooking: display given
fy the Craighead company, at their
More on Main street, is attracting a
great deal of attention and is creat
ing much comment among the women
of the city. Electricity is 'being used
as fuel and is doing more in this line
than the most sanguine would expect.
All the tests- made with cooking uten
sils have proven highly successful and
probably better results are. obtained
than through any other means. Chaf
ing dishes, radiaters and electrical nov
elties are being tested, and the same
degree of efficiency illustrated In the
work of the cooking utensils sur
rounds the work of the novelties. A
large crowd was in the store all day
today watching the tests.

THE ROOSEVELT FACE
When President Roosevelt says a thing he says It In a manner calculated to
prove that he means it. Sometimes in public speaking every fiber of his body
and every muscle of his face seems to be endowed, with the terrible earnest
ness of the brain behind the physical mask. At such moments there is no mis
taking the president's attitude. He stands for the principle he Is uttering
stands for it with both feet and the solidness of the man's character is ex
pressed in his face. When the president looks that way you need not hear
what he is saying in order to understand perfectly well that he is giving utter
ance to something in which he believes heart and soul.
PUBLIC MEETING TO
BE WELL ATTENDED
There Is Much Interest Shown
In the Traction Matter.
ROUTE FOB-PR EI GHT . LINE.
Indications are that the public
meeting in regard to the traction sit
uation, which will be held at the
council chamber Thursday evening,
will be well attended. Property own
ers on North. Twenty-second street
will be out in force as they are all
jf .. ....
opposed to running a track down that
street to be used as a freight route.
This street borders Glen Miller
park and it. has long been the dream
of the east end to make North Twenty-second
street a boulevard some day.
It is maintained that the running of
a car line down this street would not
only hurt this project but ruin the
beauty of Glen Miller.
A -Question Has Arisen.
A question has arisen whether the
traction company in case the Twenty
second street . route w;as . decided on
and the tracks, on - North 'Twentieth
street were taken, up, would forfeit its
franchise. It seems to be the im
pression of several members of the
city council that the tearing up of
these tracks would forfeit the com
pany's franchise. The city attornev
will investigate this matter.

LDN MONTGOMERY
DESERTS HIS FAMILY
Young Farmer Departed Sud
denly Leaving Wife and
Child Without Means.
WARRANT FOR HIS ARREST,
WIFE HAS GONE TO HOME OF
HER FATHER SHE IS STILL DE
VOTED TO " HUSBAND AND
WOULD HARDLY PROSECUTE.
The police were notified today of
the arrest of Alonzo Montgomery, a
young farmer residing south of this
city, who is wanted here for deserting
his wife. The police sent a warrant
toWabash last "Week expecting the
man would show up in. that city as
he has relatives there. He will be
brought to Richmond at once and if
he refuses to support his young wife
and baby he will be prosecuted.
Montgomery is 22 years of age and
over six feet in heighth. For some
time prior to his leaving tha county
Boston pike. Montgomery and his
wife and child lived in a litt'e shack
on the Miller farm. His wife is only
somery naa no money or food in the
house.
Goes to Father's Home.
Mr. Miller had been depending cn
Montgomery to assist him on the farm
this spring. When Montgomery sud
denly left for parts unfciowa lie had
to get another man and his wife' to
assist in the farm work, and to make
room for them, Mrs. Montgomery pid
her sick child had to leave the shacr
and go to the home of her father who
lives near the Miller farm and vrhose
home is small and poorly adapted for
additional tenants.
Mrs. Montgomery is still devoted to
her husband, despite his actions and
she told the officials wlio investigated
her case that she was certain Alonzo
did not desert her for another woman.
She said she supposed he just wanted
a change and that she knew he would !
come back to her as soon as he tired!
of wandering. It is very doubtful if
Mrs. Montgomery would

ation in April last year, and his time
of appointment would have expired
April 17, and he would not have been
eligible for service after that date, un
less another, civil service examination
was taken again this year. Mr.
Goins is a graduate of the Rlchmotid
high school and was one of the best
orators in his class, as well as a good
student. , His civil service examina
tion was .passed with a grade of
9S.50.
List is .Sadly Depleted.
The present civil service examin
ation eligible list for .rural route car
riers is now sadly depleted and it

handicapped , in case of sickness or
death of several of its employes.
The appointment of the Mr. Goins
was unknown to Postmaster Speken
hier until this morning and then he
had received no official notification.
The appointment .was made direct

ARCHITECT PROBABLY WILL
BE USED.
Contrary to recent reports, plana
for a new building for the Second
National bank and the Richmond
Trust company were received Tues
day but up to the present time none
of the plans have been accepted.
Plans submitted by an out-of-town ar
chitect were the most acceptable and
it is probable that a deal , will be

The new building will be three
stories in heighth and will occupy tho
rooms now used by the second Natio
nal bank, McDonnell's drug store mid
the Jenkins jewelry store. Tho
ground floor of the new building will
be used by the bank and the Rich
mond trust company. The second and
third floors will be used for office
rooms.
Cost Estimated at $45,0C0.
It is understood that the plans
which will probably be accepted call
for first story frontings on Main and
North Eighth streets of stone. Tho
second and third stories will be press,
ed brick. Large stone columns will

to the building, t is estimated that
the cost of the building will be in tho
neighborhood of $43,000.
As soon as the plans have been
accepted bids for erecting tho build
ing will at once be asked for. It is
the desire of the directors of the Sec
ond National and the Richmond Trust
company to have work started on tho
erection of the new building as early
this spring as jossible so that tha '
building will be ready for occupancy
late in the fall.

MERE UDJl WRECKER
Put Tie Across Panhandle
Track at Kokomo.
SAYS THAT HE WAS DRUNK.
Kokomo, Ind., March 20. David
Vennekens, eighteen years old. has
confessed to the local police to at
tempting to wreck the Cincinnati "ex
press on the P. C. C. & St. U rail
road in the south part of this city,
last Friday night. .
Vennekens placed a tie across th
rails at a grade crossing, expecting
the obstruction to derail the locomo-
tive and pile the express cars
and
sleepers on top of iL The train was
running at a high rate of speed when
it struck the tie. Luckily, the pilot
of the locomotive caught the tie and
hurled it out of the way. The engi
neer, fearing train robbers, did not
stop after striking the tie, but ran
on to the next station, where he re
ported the matter to the division su
perintendent. Little difficulty was met with in
tracing the crime to Vennekens. He
confessed as soon as he was arrested,
but said he was Intoxicated at the
time he placed the tie on the track,
and did not realize what he was doing.
The police doubt the truth of this as
sertion, for the reason that Venne
kens has been in .trouble before and
has served a term in the Indiana
school for boys for robbery.

It has been announced by .s
