The remains of Augustln Dais, -who died suddenly yesterday afternoon at the Hotel Continental, were em balmed to-day and tent to London, where the body will arrive on Saturday morning. The funeral services will take place in a Catholic church In London, and then the body will be sent to New York. There will bo no religious ceremony here. Dr. Herbert, who was summoned on Mon day, found Mr. Daly suffering from a severe attack of pneumonia. On the following day Labadie La grave, of Charity Hospital, was called into consultation, and he confirmed the diagnosis of Dr. Herbert. The greatest ympathy is expressed for Mrs. Daly. Telegrams and cards arrived constantly. It was ' flrgt intended to ha,ve a religious ceremony at Paris, at which the mlnisiter of fine arts and many dramatlo and artistic celebrities would have attended, but the plan was al " tered at Mrs. Daly's desire. LONDON", June 8. The flags on Daly's Theater were half-masted to-day on ac count of the death of Augustln Daly, and among the large colony of American actors , and actresses here his demise is the subject of great regret. ;Charlea Frohman said: I regard Sir Henry Irving and Mr. Daly as having done more for the elevation of the stage in their respective countries than . any managers of the time, and America's loss In this respect Is irreparable." Mr. Daly left London on Saturday, hav lng apparently fully regained his health. 'and ins'sted on a 'little outing in Paris, though some of his friends fear that he was overambittous. NEW YORK. June 8.-A dispatch to the World from Paris says: Mrs. Daly and Ada Rehan were with Augustln Daly when he died. Mr. Daly had been ill In London two weeks with a severe attack of the grip ana complete rest naa been ordered, but he . wanted to come to Paris on urgent business. His physician strongly advised against the trip, nevertheless Mr. and Mrs. Daly and Miss Rehan crossed over last Saturday. On arrival here Mr. Daly Immediately took to his bed and never left It. He would see nobody except an old friend, Eugene Grlvaz, a celebrated water-color artist. Mr. Daly iestlngly put him in charge of tho ladles. aly was treated for a slight attack of pneumonia, and as his condition caused no fear of a fatal issue M. Grlvaz accompanied the ladles through their shornlne. Tupsdav Mr. Daly was worse and a trained nurse was called, tout Tuesday night the patient was better and talked cheerfully until late. He talked again Wednesday morning, but was silent from noon until 2 o'clock, when he had a slight spasm and died. At a meeting of the trustees of the Actors' Fund of America, held in this city today, resolutions were adopted expressing rrofound regret at the death In Parts of Augusun uaiy. Judge Daly, brother of the dead manager, to-night received a cablegram from John -Farrlngton. manager of Daly's London Theater, saying that on Friday he and Mrs. Daly, accompanying the body, would start from Paris, and that Mrs. Dalv would kaii with the body on Saturday, June 10, for Ida Orme Iloraevlilpa Marcus Mayer Marcus R. Mayer, who has been the man ager of Adeilna Patti, Eernhardt and oth rs, and is at present the manager of Oiga Nethersole. was horsewhipped yesterday on the steamship St. Paul, shortly before the vessel sailed from New York. Miss Id; Orme, an actress and composer of songs wielded the whip. Twice the lash fell acros the theatrical manager's face, each time raising a well. Miss Orme then ran dow n the gangplank, but was pursued and cap tuted. Mr. Mayer, however, found tha he would lose his passage on the St. Paul if he remained to make a charge against her and declined to do this. She was released The young womin. who has figured la fmbllc happenings before, reached the Amertan line pier early in the morning and at enco went aboard the St. Paul. Mr. Mayer accompanied by Mls Nethersole and Joreph Herbert, reached the hfp twenty minutes before sailing time, and stood jjft beyond the gsnspia.nk. talking to George W. Lederer. manager nl the Casino, and Mr. Herbert. Mls Orm. who stood behind the group, drew the whip, and, reaching Aver Mr. Lederer's shoulder, struck Jlayer. twice In the face with It. As he fell

back his tllk hat was knocked off and rolled down the gangplank and was trampled upon by the startled crowd. Miss Orme tied down the deck to the gangplank used by the second-cabin passenger and thence to the pier, where she was seized by Mr. Lederer. Policeman Kelty said that If Mr. Mayer would go to the station house and make a complaint against the woman h would arrest her, but otherwise he could not do so. Mr. Mayer, as he bathed the marks left by the whip on his face, said that he did not know his assailant, and was at a lo?r to account for her act. "She was arrested In London some years ago." he raid, "and In an interview I said that she was undoubtedly insane. She was in. an asylum at that time. I believe, and may have nursed some resentment against me." Miss Orme has written several songs which became popular. She appeared at a Broadway theater stveral years ago under the management cf Lionel lawrence, and. it i3 said, was also in the chorus at the Casino. She was born in Bloomington. 111., and her father, it U said, was a wealthy ranch owner. She haa a sister living in BloomIngton. "I horsewhipped Marcus Mayer because he has in?ulted and persecuted me for years." said Miss Orme. "He grossly Insuited me in' London even years ago. I was acting at the Trafalgar-square Theater then, and he had me discharged. Since then he has steadily hounded me from city to city and prevented me from getting a position. He has spread the report that I am insane, and it was through his machinations that the English police kidnaped me and lock me to an insane aylum in England. I was released through the intervention of Colonel Hay, the American ambassador In Lor-don."

Petition Before the noard of Works President Downing Interest. A petition asking for the extension of Division street, or Klondike avenue, as it is now called, from Morris street to Kentucky avenue, was filed with the Board of Works yesterday. The document was signed by thirty-three residents of West Indianapolis who live adjacent to the requested extension. If the petition should be granted by the board, it would mean the opening of a thoroughfare directly through the land which now belongs to the Interstate Stock Yards Company, where It was proposed to build the new stock yards. It Is thought that the petition is. In reality, a blowaimed at the new stock yards enterprise. The matter will probably be taken up by the Board of Works at its regular meeting this morning. President Downing, of the board, is said to be heavily interested In the old company, which is righting the new organization. THE BUILDING IXSPECTOR. He Moves an Quickly aa One Can Say "Jack Roblmon." Building Inspector Robinson, a good-na tured person as a rule, has at last become ruffled up a bit. He has Just discovered with a sudden shock of cruel enlightenment that the wayward citizens of Indianapolis pay but little attention to his official advices and warnings. Mr. Robinson was discovered yesterday at his desk in the Board of Safe ty office composing sundry and divers communications, to be sent to offenders against the public safety laws. "I thought I would drop a line to these fellows who Insist upon leaving their side walk cellar doors open," he said, thoughtfully, as he rubbed his nose with the butt end of his pen. "Why, Mr. Robinson." quoth the caller, "surely you warned those parties months ago. Tell me cot that they dare continue their unlawful proceedings." "Aye, they dare," said Mr. Robinson. "And they mustn't, you knowreally they mustn't. I am telling tnem now mat iney mustn't." "And how about that dreadful portico in front of the St. Charles tavern? Is that unsightly structure to remain standing de spite all or your protests! "Ah, that portico." said the Inspector, sadly. "It must be removed. Yes. without dcubt, that portico must be removed. I'll pen a missive to the owners and tell "em so that's what I'll do." "And then again, come to think of it, there's that old Little's Hotel, on East Washington street. In the springtime you declared It must be demolished. "And demolished it shall be or else re paired," returned the inspector, with a frown that suggested unhappiness at the turn tno conversation had taken. I understand that the proprietors are making the repairs, you know. If they don't make the repairs, why I'll I'll warn them. I'll write them a letter: ' "While pursuing this train of thought." mued the visitor, "there comes Into my mina a picture or a long row of horrid shanties and unclean abiding places Im mediately east oi yon Hotel Uttle. Back in the dim past you said that this row of buildings menaced the safety of pedestrians. you aeciareu mat twere better far If they were transformed Into fuel for various kitchen stoves, and you said that you would insist upon their Immediate dismissal from further service-. That row of buildings is still In business." "But not for long not for long!" ex claimed Mr. ttobinson. the light of insnlra tlon In each eye. as he dipped hh pen deep into xne inn Dome. Acuon snaw tie taken i II write a letter or warning. And he set himself religiously to the task. The Measles Epidemic. City Sanitarian Clark fays that this spring has been a record-breaker In the measles line. Up to yesterday noon 1.M0 cases had been reported to the: Health Hoard since January, and Dr. Clark Is of the opinion that as many more have never been reported. There have been but two deaths from the nuiaay.

BISHOP JOSEPH FRANCIS

RECTOR OF ST. PAUL'S AT EVAXSVI LLC CHOSEN AS A COMPROMISE. Balloting; Till After Xoon Yesterday The Salary Is Raised The Episcopal diocesan convention settled on Rev. Joseph -M. Francis, rector of St. Paul's Church, Evansville, to be bishop yes terday afternoon at 12:30 o'clock. The cler gymen and laymen had balloted three hour3 the night before and could come to no conclusion. The delegates reconvened at 10 o'clock yesterday morning and balloted two hours before they elected. It was generally said that Rev. G. A. Carstenaen. or tnia city, represented the anti-riunllsts and Rev. John Jacob Faude, of Minneapolis, the ritualists. Mr. Carstensen was ahead when the convention adjourned at 12:43 o'clock yesterday morning. , Neither of the two fac tions would agree to give over in favor of the other, and the only course was a middle one, which resulted in Mr. Francis's election. At yesterday afternoon's session. the closing one, the convention "loosened up" and raised the bishop's salary tfOO, making It J2.500. It also allowed him $300 a year traveling expenses. It is likely that at next year's convention the salary will be increased considerably. The new bishop will probably not come into his office until next September. The standing committee of the diocese must notify every bishop; in the country of the election, and the approval of a majority of them must be received before the elec tion is valid. Then arrangements must be made for the consecration of the bishop. This may take place either in this city or at Mr. Francis's own church, but it is expected that he will ask that it occur at Evansville, and his wish will receive deference. He i3 popular with clergy and laymen. The vote by which he was elected in the lay hou?e of the convention was twenty-eight. Mr. Faude had eighteen and Mr. Carstensen eight, and though Mr. Francis was thus elected by only one vote, it was known that it was because promises had been made of votes for the other candidates, and the reason was not that any one really objected to Mr. Francis's election. The clergy house elected Mr. Faude twice before it learned that the lay delegates had elected Mr. Francis. Then the clergymen also turned to Mr. Francis. Mr. Francis was born at Philadelphia. He Is forty-two years old. He was graduated frcm the Theological Seminary at Nashotah. Wis. After living a short time at Watertown. Wis., he went to Japan as a. missionary and ftayed ten years. He was chosen bishop of Toklo. but the church found it could not carry out the plans it had for work in Japan and Mr. Francis did not become a bishop. In January, 1898, he" became rector or St. Paul s trnurcn. .vansvllle. His parishioners are devoted to him. The one who nominated him said Mr. Francis came to the parish when it was divided against itself and far in debt. After a year, he continued, Mr. Francis had united the factions and cleared the debt. He said he had no doubt he could bring the diocese out of the slough of financial despond. "He will lift this nightmare that Is around our necks."" he declared. And though this climax was followed by a storm of laughter, the speech lost none of its strength and made an impression. When two dioceses were made out of Indiana the funds were divided, and this weakened both materially. Besides, the churchmen say,' Indiana, is truly a missionary diocese. A plan that has been urged by the mission boards for several years will be followed out in building up the new diocese, it is said. Thl3 plan is to abandon for a time the attempt to establish the church in "unfertile" fields. Effort and money will be spent in strengthening the parishes in the towns where there is a promising prospect. When the church diocese becomes prosperous, s the Eplscopals believe it must in a few years, the church will be extended into the secluded places. The diocese has for many years received from the National. Domestic and Foreign Mission Society $2,000 a year for missions In Indiana. This year the sum will be reduced $500. The dlovese in yesterday's convention pledged itself to raise $2,500 for home missions. This will give with which to support the missions in this diocese this year. POSTAL CLERKS ADJOURN. ; The Passage of the Reclassification Bill Urged. At Its third session yesterday morning the National Association of Railway Postal Clerks took up most ot the time in a discussion of the reclassification of the service, which really means a readjustment of the wages of the clerk3 in the railway mall service. Tho members of the association are very hopeful of securing the passage of the reclassification measure at the next session of Congress. It has twice passed the United States Senate, but has both time-? met the disapproval of the House, and the postal clerks are Inclined to attribute Its failure there to Speaker Reed, who, they say, has always been against the measure. The Postoffice Department is in hearty sympathy with the proposed legislation, as is D. B. Henderson, who is likely to become Speaker Reed's successor, and these facts lead the association to feel greatly encouraged over the Immediate outlook for the passage of the measure. Two other lawmakers. Representatives Overstreet. of Indiana, and General Grosvenor. of Ohio, are also warm supporters of the cause. Hy an unanimous vote, the convention decided to urge the passage of the bill. The morning session closed with the reports of those committees which had not offered reports the day before. The report of the ways and means committee, favoring an assessment of $1 on each member to furnish the association's expense fund, was adopted. The committee on revision of constitution andx by-laws reported a number of changes, and. although there was some discussion in regard to several of the new rules, the report was finally adopted in Its entirety. The principal change was in the beneficiary department, and provided that the fees collected by the local secretaries shall hereafter be sent directly to the national secretary, instead of to the secretaries of the different divisions. Resolutions were passed thanking President Kidwell and Superintendent Holloway, of the fifth division, for the excellent management of the convention, and another resolution was adopted assuring Representative Henderson of the association's sincere appreciation of his interest in its welfare and congratulating him on his prospective election to the speakership. The election of officers then took place and resulted as follows: President C. I Shaffer, of Chicago. Vice President C. W. Eddln, of Atlanta, Ga. Secretary and Treasurer Geo. A. Wood, of Portsmouth. N. H. The only contest of the election was between C. W. Eddin. of Atlanta, and Ryran Dleffenbach. of Los Angeles. Gal., for the vice presidency, the former being elected by a close vote. San Antonio. Tex., was the city selected for the meeting place of the convention next year. The ladles' auxiliary held a meeting during the afternoon and perfected its organization. Mrs. Blair, of St. Paul, who Is an instructress t the Agricultural College of Minnesota, delivered an address on the purpose of the new society. In the evening the ladle? gave a farewell reception and entertainment In the Denlson parlors. Mrs. Wood, of Portsmouth. N. H.. president of the National Association, read a paper showing the benetlts to be derived from a permanent organization: Mrs. James Elliott, of St. Paul, told of the work accomplished by the ladles of the postal service In St. Paul and Minneapolis, and musical numbers were given by Mrs. Shaffer, of Chicago, and Mrs. Joslln, of St. Paul. Tobacco at the R. R. Y. 31. C. A. Considerable comment was heard yesterday regarding the proposed plan of J. Q. Van Winkle, general superintendent of the Big Four, to place tobacco on sale at the Brlghtwood railroad Y. M. C. A. Secretary B. W. Titus in speaking of the matter said the proposed plan was in opposition to Y. : C. A. practices. He had not yet rece.ved notice of the matter from Mr. Van Winkle, but thought no objection would be marie for the reason that the railroad company Is a large contributor to the railroad department of the organization. Reformatory Improvements. The secretary of the State Board of Charities returned from a trip to the Jeffersonvllle Reformatory yesterday. He saw the plans for the improvements to be made at

the Reformatory- The plans will be submitted to the Governor June 13. They provide for a new cellhouse containing six hundred cells. The old cellhouse, which was condemned In ISO and every year since then, will be remodeled and enough cf the old cells will be left to make the whole number ot cells one thousand. Two hundred thousand dollars will be expended on the cellhouses. A new shop, a new laundry and improved heating and ventilating apparatus are to be constructed. A .YOUNG CUBAN NEGRO.

Exceptions Taken to Ills Remarks at Simpson Chapel. A young Cuban negro, who was educated in New Orleans, lectured last night at Simpson Chapel on the condition of the negro In Cuba, and in the course of his remarks he made a number of strong statements, which several colored men who were there deprecate as having a tendency to stir up colored people to violence. J. H. Lawrence was one of those there, and he asked the lecturer to reply to certain questions, but the Cuban declined to be Interrupted. The ecturer denounced Booker T. Washington. end Fred Douglass, on the ground that trey were pandering to the prejudices of the Caucasian and accomplished very little in the way of advance for the colored race. He said it would be better for the negro in this country to take the t-ame course the i;egro took in Cuba to free himself from the oppression of the Spaniards. Mr. Law-Tt-nce took exceptions to his tirade against the efforts of such noble men as Booker T. Washington, who. he believes. Is doing more to lead the negro to salvation than any other colored man. He believes the colored man should fiTst perfect himself in all that is required for good citizenship, and with that attained the colored man will naturally take the place to which he is entitled in the brotherhood of man. GflVEWAGNERIANSCENES REMARKABLE PERFORMANCE BY SCHOOL NO. 8 TUPILS. Children Handle Well the Difficult Music The Concert To-Mght. Plymouth Church was comfortably filled yesterday afternoon by children from the eighth grade rooms of the various school buildings throughout the city. They had come to listen to the chorus from school No. 3. in its final rehearsal for the concert which occurs this evening. The programme was a somewhat remarkable one for a chorus of three hundred grammar school children to attempt. It will be remembered that the pupils of the school gave a concert last January which was a pleasant surprise to all who heard it. At that time Gounod's "Gallia" and Adams's "Holy Child" were sung, and the present programme is made up of this latter work, repeated by request, and selections from Richard Wagner. "The Holy Child" was rendered with the same delicacy of tone and movement that characterized It at the first concert, the only difference being that this time the solo parts were taken by two of the sixth grade pupils of No. 8. The selections from Wagner were what surprised musical people yesterday afternoon. From the third act of "Tannhaueser" the first and second scenes were given in full, with the final part of the last scene. The difficult "Pilgrims' Chorus." with its slow movement and perplexing modulations, was sung with remarkable precision and with a sympathetic appreciation which reemed almost beyond the power of children. In contrast to its solemn and religious tone was the march from the .s-c-ord act of "Tannhaueser" and the "Spinning Chorus." from the "Flying Dutchman." The first of these developed astonishing breadth and volume, while the second was sung with a delightful grace and lightness. The difficult part of Wolfram was well taken by Henry Newton. His voice showed to special advantage in the song to the evening star, - which was given with feeling. Mis Iglemann captured the hearts of her audience by her beautiful rendering of "Elizabeth's Prayer." The organist was Mr. W. P. Kent. His playing of the Introduction to the third; act of "Tannhaueser" showed a good understanding of the number. A pretty feature of the close of the programme was the showering of Mr. Dykema with flowers by the children of the chorus. While he had had the most perfect control of them during the concert be now found himself at their mercy. The concert itself will be given to-night at 7:4o in Plymouth Church. Children's Day Service.

THE ODD FELLOWS HOME

COMMERCIAL CLUB XOT STRIVING TO TAKE IT FROM GREEXSBURC, Bat If It Is to Be Moved Indianapo lis 3Iay Make Effort. anIt is not unlikely that Indianapoli? may have an opportunity to ask for the location of the orphans' home which the Odd Felows expected to build at Greensburg. The heme was located there after a sharp competition, and the city donated 160 acres of and and agreed to furnish water, gas. street improvements, etc., free of charge. The land has not been taken Into, the city limits as yet. and none of the agreements made by the city have been fulfilled. Fcr that reason the order Is considering stepping the work on the home and moving It. A dispatch from Greensburg In the Jour nal yesterday stated that the Commercial Club of this city had agreed to pay the expenses incidental to the stopping of work and the removal of the home to Indianapolis. This ij news to the officers of the commercial Club, and It is rrobable that the statement is a mistake. President English said he had never heard of this action hav ing been taken, but he was heartily in favor of Indianapolis making an attempt to secure the home If there Is any chance for It. He stated that the matter had not been brought up in any of the board meetings, so far as he knew, and it was likely that If any encouragement had been given to such a prop osition it had been an expression of willingness on the part of individual members to push the matter along. He was satisfied the club would be willing to take it up If the home Is to be moved. Assistant Secre tary Hoover, of the club, said that nothing had ever come up In any of the meetings, so far as he knew, on such a proposition. The only member of the committee which has charge of the heme who lives in Indianapolis is Mrs. Anna W. La Follette. She said yesterday that no action has as yet been taken by the order, but that action will be taken unless Greensburg fulfills its obligations. She further stated that the officers of the home will give the Common Council of Greensburg an opportunity to take action. W. H. Leedy, grand secretary of the Odd Fellows, said yesterday afternoon that when the contest was on for the location of the home he tried hard to get it for Indianapolis. "I -went to the Board of Trade," &ald he, '.'and told the members it would cost about $25,000 to secure the home for this city, and that I would raise from $6,000 to $8,000 among the lodges of the city if the board would take the matter up. The board did nothing, so I went to tho Commercial Club and a nominal offer of $5,000 was made, merely to keep the city in the competition. The Commercial Club raid it was willing to co-operate with the Board of Trade in the movement, but that the board might be expected to take the lead. When the board finally did take ac tion on it it was too late for the Commercial Club to take It up, and Indianapolis practically made no fight for It. The contest for the home was principally between Kokomo and Greensburg, although New Castle was also an applicant. If the home is to be moved I believe a good sum can be raised In the lodges of the city, hut I hardly expect the sum would be equal to that which could have been raised before. It would probably cost $DO,000 to $25,(XK) to bring it here. It is the intention first to erect a thirty-flve-thousand-dollar building and then put up additional building-. WUhln a short time I am sure $10WJ0 will be spent on buildings. Indianapolis Is the place for the home, and if It is to be moved I hope it will come to this city." GREENSBURG WAKES UP. Doesn't Like the Prospect of Losing Odd Fellows Home. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. GREENSBURG, Ind., June S.The one topic of conversation to-day Is Judge Chipman's letter to the contractor of the I. O. O. F. Home, asking for a cash proposition to cancel the building contract. One of the members of the City Council, who has opposed taking the grounds into the corporation, says he will now vote affirmatively if the home people will make their proposition more definite and specific, so he may know what he is voting for, as he is opposed to Increasing taxation or disbursing money on propositions of the blanket variety. The municipal authorities are asked to grade and macadamize Washington street from the public square to the home building, a distance of one mile, at an expense of $6,000 to $10,000, when this street is macadamized to 100 rods of tho main entrance of the building and Main street within 400 feet of the main entrance.

The City Council some time ago secured a contract from the electric light company for freo lights for the building and grounds for five years. To-day a telegram was received from the water company stating that it would extend Its mains to the institution and put in proper tire protection.

Stevenson, an Odd Fellow, taxpayer and a contributor to the I. O. O. F. Home, states that he will file an injunction against the city entering into a contract with the water company to furnish free water and fire protection to the institution and counsel have been employed to draft proper proceedings. THE EX-OFFICERS' SIDE OF IT. Do Sot Believe They Owe the County Anything. Experts Bookwalter ond McCaslln say they have received instructions from the County Commissioners to proceed with tho examination of books in the county offices. In the report published yesterday the experts showed the result of their work in the offices of sheriff and clerk. The other offices to be Investigated are the recorder, auditor and treasurer. It is understood that the books in the recorder's office are to be taken up next. Yesterday afternoon the experts visited the County Commissioners to learn the opinion of the board on the report just made public. The commissioners suggested that the facts brought out in the report were largely questions of law which would have to be passed on by the county attorney. The experts then outlined their plans for future work and were told to proceed with the examination of books in the recorder's office. Commissioner McGregor said yesterday evening that as far as he. could say now the investigation would be carried out as originally planned. He knew of no reason why it should not. J. W. Fesler, ex-county clerk, said yesterday that he did not think he would be called on to return any money to the county that had been paid him for making copies of records. These records, he said, were wcrn out and new ones had to be made. He said he did not think any one would contend that he should have paid out part of his salary In replacing books th.it were worn out during the years his predecessors were in office. Ex-Sheriff Emmett says that when he went out of office he was $3,000 short in salary. He served as sheriff when the fee and salary law was yet new. Since he left the office he has collected $2.2110 In fees, which he applied on his salary. He says he has not received the amount which the law says he should have. He says he was never allowed a per dlcm for attendance at the Criminal Court, but since his time sheriffs have been paid for this work, lie employed nine deputies in his office, he says, mid paid them not less than $13 a week. If he eeuld not collect fees during the week sufficient to pay them he borrowed money on Saturday night from one of the banks. "Instead of my being indebted to the county," concludes Mr. Emmett in his statement, "it owes me for services." Former Sheriff A. L. Womack declared yesterday that he has none of the county's money, notwithstanding the report of the experts. As to the collections he made during his term of office. Mr. Womack says that what he did while in office was on the advice of his attorney. W. T. Brown. He Is confident that Mr. Brown knew what he was talking about. Ex-Sheriff Shufelton says he followed the methods adopted by his predecessors when he went into office. He also followed the law as cloiely as he kaew how. When he

was unable to interpret the exact meaning cf any part of the fee and salary law and could not find a good precedent to follow he called In a lawyer ar.d took his advice. Mr. Shufelton says that when a court would refuse to allow one of his claims he would simply waive the claim. He went out of office, he says, with $2.273..T due him on salary. Mr. Shufelton thinks "the whole matter is simply a question of interpreting the fee and salary law." County. Attorney Brown proposes to study the recent cplnions of the Supreme Court affecting the fees of county officers. He thinks It may take a suit In court to determine the questions ra!sed by the report of the experts. "The men are all good for the amounts that may be said to be In controversy," remarked the attorney yesterday, "and the county will have no trouble in getting the money If the courts decide that it is entitled to it or if it is made plain without litigation to the ex-county officers that the money belongs to the county."
