DEPRESSED TRACKS, TOO

CITY EXGIKEirS PLANS TO BE PRESENTED MAYOR TO-MORROW. Ill Ektlinate of Cost of Solving: Grade Crossing; Problem Ia About 92,000,000. The plans of Engineer Jeup for the elevation of the railroad tracks in thi3 city are nearlng completion and will bo ready for submission to Mayor Taggart to-morrow. As nearly as can be estimated, the entire cost will be about J2,000,000, all of which the railroads will be asked to pay. The term "elevated tracks" as applied to the new order of things provided for in Engineer J Jeup's plan Is ambiguous, Inasmuch as there will be nearly, If not quite, as much depression as elevation of tracks when the scheme Is completed. In the congested portion of the city near the Union Station the grades of Pennsylvania and Delaware streets and Capitol and Senate avenues can be depressed bo as to admit of a crossing beneath the tracks without disfiguring the streets and inconveniencing traffic by building a tunnel like that on Illinois street, it Is claimed. The plans contemplate a gradual rise in the grade of the tracks in either direction out of the Union Station, and by the time the Big Four and Monon reach. Washington street the tracks will be far above the street level, so as not to Interfere with wagon or streetcar traffic on the surface. There will be little. of the damaging of property Interests and none of the general unsightliness of the Chicago track elevation plan in the scheme of Engineer Jeup, it is claimed. Instead of solid stone structures filled with and and connected over street crossings by steel bridges, the Indianapolis plan will be to bring the trains Into the city over steel structures like those of the elevated street railways of New York and Chicago. In this way the lower floors of contiguous property will not be shut off from light and air, as is the case in Chicago, and the damages assessed will not be greater than they would for the building of an e'evated street-railway past the buildings. The roads to bo most affected by the elevation are the Pennsylvania, Monon, Lake Erie &. Western and the Cleveland and Cln cinnati divisions of the Big Four road. Very little elevation will bo necessary in the case of the Belt Railroad. While as yet nothing has been said as to the distribution of the cost of the elevation. Mayor Taggart says that the Chicago plan, by which the railroads pay the entire cost of the elevation and the city settles for the damage done to property values, will no doubt be adopted. He is of opinion that, inasmuch as the city, during its days of infancy and need,- invited the railroads to enter the city at established grades. It should not now ask the roads to pay the whole blil for changing them. He aid that the railroads assisted the development of the city to an incalculable degree, and the result of their influence on the prdperty and growth of the city is "largely responsible for the present demand for less dangerous means of ingress and egress. The plans are In such shape that but little work is required to complete them, but they cannot be put on paper until several minor matters have been settled and for this reason specific grades cannot be quoted for most of the streets until those in others have been established. - . 4 FLAGMEN - REQUIRED. Board of "Work Discusses the Grade Crossing: Question. Aside from the regular routine work yesterday morning the Board of Works spent much time in the discussion of plans whereby immediate protection could be afforded the people of this city who are compelled to cross 'railroad tracks at hours when, as at present, there is no protection afforded by the railroad companies. The two recent fatalities those of Mrs. Frances Zearing And little. Hazel Shafer were cited by the city officials as ample evidence of the necessity for track elevation as a finality and crossing tenders as an immediate measure. Mr. Montgomery, of the Board of "Works, expressed himself in favor of compelling tho railroad companies to station flagmen at every crossing within the "mile square" during every hour in each day and night. It is expected that by Friday the plans of City Engineer Jeup will have been completed for the elevation of all the tracks within the city, and a meeting of city officials will be held at that time to talk over the situation with a view to the introduction of a "blanket" track elevation ordinance in the next meeting of Council Monday night. At that time it is expected that arrangements will be made for the exercise of greater vigilance in keeping all trains running within the city limits down to the ordinance speed limit of six miles an hour. Tho finance committee of the Council will meet to-night in the city clerk's office to consider the appropriation of , 1150,000 for building the proposed bridges over Fall creek and White river. The judiciary committee will meet Saturday night to consider the new stockyards ordinance, and all citizens who are interested are invited to be present and make themselves heard cither for or against its passage. AGAINST ADULTERATED FOOD. The City Health Department Begins Prosecations. The first blow to be struck by the city health department against the sale of adulterated food in this city was delivered yesterday when suit was filed against W. A. Painter, who operates a creamery at 1102 Fletcher avenue. He was charged with using formaldehyde In his milk in order to keep it from souring. John C. Brill, a dairyman, of Sherman drive, south of Tenth street, was also sued for the same offense. Dr. Clark employed Dr. John F. Geis to make the analyses on which the prosecutions were brought, and the result of Qr. Geis's work leads Dr. Clark to believe that wholesale adulteration of food has been in order inthls city for some time past. In discussing the milk cases Dr. Clark said that, while formaldehyde is a fine disinfectant for surgical instruments, it is, like corrosive sublimate, a poor article of diet, and its presence in milk Is a menace to the lives of children and the health of adults. Demmeyer Bros., grocers, of East Washington street, were sued for selling vinegar which was lacking in proper acids. In pursuing his work Dr. Gels ascertained that many of the soda fountains in the city are supplied with syrups which were "loaded" with salicylic acid, and were therefore dangerous to health. To what extent these syrups are used he is unable to say, but he is of opinion that their sale is widespread. Want Senate Avenue Opened. A petition is reported to be in circulation on the South Side in favor of the opening of Senate avenue from Merrill street south, through the property of the Premier Steel Company. It Is generally understood by the people of that part of the city that the present owners of the steel plant do not intend to use it and that it will probably be idle in any event for years, and, as there is no street between Capitol avenue and Missouri street from Merrill to McCarty street, tho land might just as well be utilized for the accommodation of the public. PennsylvanlaSt. Resident Complain. Complaint Js made by residents of North Pennsylvania street that, In spite of the fact that the repair work on the street-railroad tracks has been finished to a point above North street, the street has not been cleaned of the lime and mud left from the building of the foundation for the street-car tracks. Each passing vehicle throws a cloud of dust into the air. to the great annoyance of the people living close by. Contract Sljrned.

The following has been received by the Journal: "I notice in the Journal a published list of letters now in the postoffice and uncalled for. This reminds me that I recently learned that only such letters as aro mailed outside the city, or those giving street and number, are advertised where parties to whom adddressed cannot be located. Letters mailed in the city and simply addressed 'City,' or 'City, care general delivery,' are never advertised if not called for. Why this distinction? Has the address anything to do with the importance of the letter? The postal regulations governing the advertising of letters do provide that letters addressed as given shall not be advertised. The presumption of the department is that when a letter is mailed in person in the same city, the street number c-au ue secured, n a letter is received at the postofflce with the address only as "City," the directory is consulted and a special list of street and house numbers is consulted and the letter delivered if the person's name is found. If not found, the address is presumed to be wrong and the writer is sunnoFpd tn hvA hattF foPiitH. for finding the addresses than the departiucuu a letter sent to tne address, "General Delivery," is held for the required thirty days at the general delivery and then sent to tho dead letter office. If advertised it would have to be held two weeks after advertising. The person to whom a letter is sent under this address is supposed to call at tho office for his mail, and the department is not charged with the duty of delivering it to him except as called for. or this reason such letters are not advertised. Indiana's Wheat Crop. Grain dealers of this city have come to the conclusion that the cutting of wheat is nearly over in the State and that the yield In Indiana will not exceed 17,000,000 to 13,000,000 bushels. It was expected last February that the yield would be from 50,000,000 to 65,000,000 bushels. The best part of the present crop Is in the central portion of the State, and from Seymour, Shelbyvllle, Rushville and Richmond to this city the yield is good. From this city to Vlncennes and from Vincennes to Evansville it is also good, but north and northeast of this city the crop Is poor. Marion county will probably average a better yield than other counties and, with the exception of Hendricks county, there is little wheat west of this county. Meetlnor of State Medical Board. The State Board of Medical Registration and Examination will meet on July 11 for the regular semi-annual examination. After that date no more applications for certificates on licenses will be considered, as the extension of time made by the law will then expire. Summer Trade Heavier Than Winter. We learn from that now famous up-town studiothe most artistic in the West that the buslnes3 during June has been heavier than the month during the holidays last winter. Incidentally it has been proved that this same studio Issues more different styles of photographic work than any other in the United States; tome of these styles are Invented and are exclusively the property of Mr. Kltchell, while others are imitated by some down-town galleries, but the difference between the original and the imitation is so p.Ipable that few people are detlved after comparing one with the other. It Is our hope that our people may continue to appreciate the rar quality of Kltchell work, and that he may be content to abide long with us, ,

"About a yar ago a doctor and his irtfa came to board with us. We already bad Ml?3 G., who was at that time thin and; yellow and considerably out of health. The first morning the new boarders cams to the table as guests, the your.g lady remarked as she ?at her cup down, "This Is coffee!" while the doctor added, "Xot at all like the poor coffee they have been siring us at tbe hotel." I smiled behind my napkin and asked If either of them ever used Postum Food Coffee. The doctor said he had tasted It, but it was weak, miserable stuff. Miss G. bad beard of It end wished she could try it. I said nothing:, but at the end of three months, when Ml5S G. was ready to leave us for a new field of labor, said, "I have been giving you Postum Food Coffee all the tlm you have been here." "What, is that coffee, Postum?" Fhe said. I remarked that I had noticed with great pleasure her dally gala in health, and now that she was leaving us after only three months at our table, she had rosy cheeks and a plump figure, which was all the argument anyone needed to prove the fact that she had been uell cared for, and the reason for her gain in health was the use of Postum Food Coffee, for no other change had been made of any account in her food. The doctor was very mirth delighted wlta the experiment, and Uncovered that where he tad tried Tostum before, he bad been unfortunate In having it underbolled. Postum must be boiled fifteen cr twenty minutes to bring out the delicious flavor, and then it will suit the taste of any one." 2drs. Florence Dougherty, riaccrville. Ids.
