Questionable houses until all of them will be forced suspend business entirely. Not only the city, but the county at large, will falla under the Cleaning process and in the near futttre Terre Haute will be struggling Along sans boot-legging houses, road houses, places whereiit wild women oongregate.

Prosecutor Douglas filed another suit for abatement against George Thomas, Delia Kabbes and William Wallace Saturday morning asking the Superior Court to issue an order abating house at Second and Cherry street*, *&ld to be owned by Thomas and conduoted by Wallace and the Kabbes woman. It is charged that intoxicating liquors are sold in this establishment and that wild women congregate there for the purpose of providing hilarious ent&iaimnent for wandering males* i

The afimnr flrrTa-refc that Thoina*, |®wner of the property, is aware of the Alleged law violations and that he will tiot cause the place to be closed.

Therefore, the court is asked to abate the house, give an order to have all personal property sold and require the defendants to pay a sum of $50X The Jlate asked for an answer to the abatement was July 18s is brought to the attention of the «ourt that the place has been searched ©n numerous occasions and that intoxicating liquor has been found there In great quantities* It is also said that Wallace has been arrested and been convicted of violating the liquor laws, y According tos the present plans of the prosecutor houses of a questionable type are to be eliminated from the entire oountf through a slow but persistent system of abatement proceedings.

One man Bigned to report Saturday, one man released, and lines out for several more might be given as the summ'ary of the Saturday morning report.

The newest addition to the team, due to report Saturday, ia our old friend, "Hank" Faynter, the pitcher, who formerly performed in this league, and while his former record was not the best he assures Manager Brown that he is In better condition than

Labor troubles in a factory in which he is Interested caused lilm to leave the team upon ita return from th* road trip Thursday, and "Brownie" decided that it was best to let iho youngster go, as he was not doing much good with the bat and was not-really .property of the local club, ^iew Players Coming.

Manager Mord Brown and President Jack Oleary have been keeping the telegraph wires hot in an offort to land some really worth while phtyerj ami if some, of these men live ijp to their promises to report there will be at least two or three new players on tne Job by Sunday evening.
