COMMISSION AGREEMENT

SOME OF THE nOAIIS AHE 9 A II) TO DC VIOLATING ITS TKIIMS. The nir Four Will Make .More Money Iudepeudent of tbe Clieanpeake 1 Ohio General otei. General passenger agents of pome of the Eagtern trunk lines who have recently been in the West say that in spite of recent agreements some of the West ern lines are still paying commissions on passenger busines?. The discovery was made that the Western division of one of the principal trunk lines was openly paying commissions to a -big tourist firm. When the general passenger agent of this line was asked for an explanation he said he had voted to discontinue paying commissions on the main line, but not in the Western division. It is likely that this mat ter will be brought before the Joint-Passenger Association at it3 next meeting. The fear Is expressed by some of the general passenger agents that this violation of the agreement of Jan. 1 will become general unless the present offender chinges its policy. At least two of the trunk lines have suffered a considerable loss of business In consequence of this payment of 'commissions by their connecting rival. Some of the Chicago papers thl3 week conveyed the Impression that the Michigan Central was guilty of irregularities In St. Paul-Chlcago-Buffalo eastbound passenger rates, but upon Investiga tion It Is learned that this supposition is without substantial standing. The Dlff Pour's Favorable Exhibits. A transportation official, in speaking of the handsome earnings of the Big Four lines proper, said he thought they were In gome measure due to its now being Independent of tho Chesapeake & Ohio, although still working friendly with it. For some years past the Big x our had, in effect. been compelled to turn the bulk of Its export freight over to the Chesapeake & unio rrorn Chicago, Peoria and St. Louis, in which case it gets but a 110-mlle haul after the freight reaches Indianapolis, whereas tne same rreignt can rully as readily be shipped over the Bee-line division to tide water, the Big Four getting a 2SS-mlle haul from Indianapolis to Cleveland, and the same Is true on business shipped from rew YorK westward. The Increase in loaded car movement of the Big Four re cently over tne division between Indianapolis and Cleveland demonstrated that the management appreciate the fact of the Increase In revenue resulting through the longer haul. Conductors' Lore Feast. This evening the Indianapolis division of tho - Order of - Railway Conductors will have what they term a "love feast" In their hall on Massachusetts avenue. Grand Clef Clarke and other members of promi nence rrorn otner divisions will be pres ent, and several addresses will be made. These will be followed by a social time at the hall, after which refreshments will be served. At midnight thirty or more-new members will be Initiated.' The Indianapolis division is now one of the largest in numbers In the organization, and has become noted for Its aggressiveness in the interest of the membership. An Increase of 94,000,000. Tho Pennsylvania's report published March, 1809, showed: Stocks owned by the company, $122.891,225; bonds owned by the company, S39.7S0.SS2; cash In bank. $14,000,000; trust fund. $9.387,941: sinking fund, $7,033,064; Insurance fund, $1,069,000. This gives a total of $207,42,112. against a capital stock of $129.305,000. The year ending December, 1599, the system showed an increase of $4,000,000 net over the preceding year. There is doubt if there is a corporation in the world, outside of the large Insurance and trust companies, which can public facts like these. Personal, Local and General IVotes. Commercial Agent F. 1. Harkness, of the Erie, stationed at Chicago, has resigned. It. R. Bentley, of Pittsburg, general baggage agent of the Pennsylvania lines west, is in the city. Charles Riley, car service superintendent of the Baltimore & Ohio Southwestern, Is in the city on a business and pleasure trip combined. ' The Chicago & Eastern Illinois announces that It is now open for business to Arkansas, Texas and the Southwest via Thebes and the Cotton Belt. m The power on the Indianapolis division of the Panhandle is insufficient and some of the engines of the Grand Rapids & Indiana are in service on this division. In the year 1S99 there were twenty-seven locomotives of the Cincinnati. Hamilton & Dayton road thoroughly rebuilt at the shops of the Indiana, Decatur & Western in this city. E. O. McCormlck, passenger tratflc manager of the Southern Pacific, has taken his young brother-in-law. Will Henry, of Cincinnati, to San Francisco to start his railroad career. R. J. Hoffman has been appointed mechanical engineer of the Santa Fe system, with headquarters at Topeka. He was on the editorial staff of the Railway Review until two years ago. Stockholders of the Baltimore & Lehigh Narrow Gauge Railroad have authorized the directors to make the road standard gauge from Baltimore to the Pennsylvania state line. J. B. Eckman. chief inspector In the Indianapolis district of the Joint Weighing and Inspection Bureaus, who was Injured ten days ago when alighting from an electric car, is still so 111 ad ,to conilne him to his room. W. II. Fisher, general passenger agent of the Hocking Valley, has sent out a handsome lithograph of a handsome woman looking over a map of the "Buckeye Route." and tho title of tho picture is "Silent Persuasion." J. T. Hanrahan, vice president of the Illinois Central, M. C. Markham, assistant traffic manager, and A. H. Hanson, general passenger agent, have started on an extended Western trip and while absent will visit Butte, Portland and San Francisco. William Ashton has accepted the position of resident engineer of the Oregon Shortline, succeeding the late Chief Engineer O'Melveney. His successor as division engineer of tha Union Pacific at Denver will be E. Stcnger, of the Nebraska division. E. A. Ford, general passenger agent of the Pennsylvania lines west, is spending fcveral days visiting the more important points on tho system, stirring tip representatives of the passenger department and listening to grievances, should any be entertained. Frank Ferris has resigned from the general Irelght managership of the Lake Michigan and Lake Superior Transportation Company. For two years Mr. .Ferris has been tho chief freight agent of the lake line, going from Cincinnati, where he acted as general agent for the Bis Four. W. A. Cox. who has represented the Chicago & Northwestern at Cincinnati, left yesterday for Philadelphia, his new field. Ills family, which now resides in Indianapolis, will In a few days go to Philadelphia. Mr. Cox stated last evening that A. J. Cleveland would be his successor In the Cincinnati district. J. Q. Hicks, general yardmaster at Indianapolis of the Big Four lines. U inclined to boast over the fact that at Indianapolis In January 4 3-13 per cent, more cars were handled than in January. 1810. while the pay rolls show that the yards were operated this year at 24 per cent, less than In January last year. The business of tho Railway Officials and Employes Association has so increased th.i last few months as to necessitate their having more room, and the association now occupies twenty rooms In tho Ingalls block. Yesterday T. E. Clarke, general inanuger of the Iowa Central road, authorized the association to operate over its lines. There are between forty and fifty agencies in Chicago of railroads known as outside lines that Is, lines having the termi

nals there. The larger systems, such as the Great Northern, the Canadian Pacific, etc., will in all probability continue to retain separate agencies there, but joint agencies for the smaller roads will, it Is generally believed, bo established. The Panhandle engine programme for the present year calls for twelve passenger engines and twenty-eight freight engines, and so far only ten of the new machines have been received. The freight engines now in ue are known as the G 4A. and the passenger engines to be received shortly will be known as the G 4. They will be the heaviest locomotives ever used on the Pennsylvania lines west of Pittsburg. The officers of the New York Central have made arrangements with two large casualty insurance companies by which the lives of the employes may be insured. Special rates have been secured, and the railway company has o arranged that, in the event of any employe so desiring, the amount of the premiums will be deducted from his wages each month and turned over to one or the other of the insurance companies which have the privilege of Insuring tho employes. The Lake Shore, in connection with the Wabash, will attempt to make a record run from Cleveland to St. Louis on Sunday. The road has an arrangement to carry a theatrical company from Cleveland to St. Louis, and will make fast time. At Toledo the train will be turned over to the Wabash. It is said that a time schedule has been arranged that Is even faster than the limited on the Big Four, the fastest train that la at present run between Cleveland and St. Louis. Col. William Shaw, representing the passenger department of the Chicago. Burlington & Quincy, is in the city. He has recently visited many of the important points and says he could but notice that the ticket scalpers are closing their offices and entering other lines of business. At Cincinnati but one scalper of importance is doing business, one of their number, and one of the shrewdest in the business, last week going into the laundry business, and at Indianapolis they are practically frozen out. No better testimony of the ability of Oscar G. Murray and John K. Cowan could be presented than the simple reference to the fact that the men at the head of the fctrongest contemporary lines have been investing in B. & O. stocks. No matter whether a consolidation is intended or a plan to strengthen rates, the fact remains that either proposition is an acknowledgment of the restoration of the strength of the B. & O., and any interpretation of the present conditions is complimentary to the present managers. A large folder, which is called "No. 21 of the Four-track Series," hac been issued by the passenger department of the New York Central lines. This folder bears the title, "Round the World by Way of New York and Niagara Falls in Sixty to Eighty Days." It contains a large amount of Information of a cosmopolitan character, and an excellent railway map of the United States showing the railway systems in' good proportion. This folder is a sequel to the address given by Mr. Daniels before the International Commercial Congress at Philadelphia. G. A. R. ENCAMPMENT.

A Preliminary Meeting; Held to Slake Arrangements. Eight years have passed since the State Encampment of the Grand Army has been held In this city. JL has been going about the State because cities have desired it and because the veterans in some portions of the State feel that Indianapolis has not given them the cordial welcome that other cities have extended. At the last encampment no city wanted the annual meeting. Fort Wayne, Evansvllle, Lafayette, Muncie, South Bend, Richmond, Columbus and' Terre Haute have had it In turn. It seems more of a burden than other cities care to take up at the pace which has been set. As no other city wanted the encampment, the Indianapolis delegates invited It to meet in this city. It is the desire of citizens and veterans in this city to have Indianapolis extend a cordial welcome. That it will, when attention Is called to the matter, there is no doubt. Veterans in Indianapolis think that it Is much better for the city every way to give the Grand Army's thousands of visitors a cordial welcome than it Is to seek to attract some political or other convention here to hold its session. With a view of securing a proper organization, a number of citizens and veterans met last evening at Grand Army headquarters to take the first steps for an organization that will Insure a Utting reception of the State Encampment May 16 and 17. General Carnahan was chosen temporary chairman and Z. A. Smith temporary secretary. The sentiment of the meeting was to ask the public-spirited citizens who are not veterans to give direction to the organization, so as to make it an affair of the citizens, rather than the ex-soldiers. To that end the following citizens were selected and requested to act as a committee to select an executive committee and any further organization that seemed necessary: D. M. Parry, William H. Armstrong, C. E. Coffin, E. K. Criley. W. E. English, H. P. Wasson, J. R. Carnahan and Z. A. Smith. This committee will meet at an early day. Typographical .Union Officer. The nomination of officers of the International Typographical Union was given out yesterday by President S. B. Donnelly. The election will take place by the referencum method next May. There are three nominations for president, as follows: S. U. Donnelly, of New York; J. M. Lynch, of Syracuse, and W. B. Prescott, of Indian apolis. For first vice president, the nomina tions are: M. T. I3urton. or Memphis; u. is Ilasting3, of Hamilton; John W. Hays, of Minneapolis; C. E. Hawkes. of San Francisco; C. E. Holmes, of Columbia; S. L. I.efflngwell. of Indianapolis; J. M. Lynch, of Syracuse; H. G. Stephenson, of Dallas; W. C. Walters, of Wilmington; G. II. Rus11, of Chattanooga; W. S. Whitmore, of St. Louis. There are several candidates for trustees of the Childs-Drexel Home. Governor of n. Province. Lieutenant Austin Tarker, U. S. A., now in the Philippine Islands, writes home that he is enjoying the distinction of ruling over cne of the provinces of the island of Luzon as Governor. He acquired the position when on Nov. 3 he was sent to join his regiment which was stationed some dis tance north of Manila and from thera they were to make an attack on the natives. On the approach of the troops the Governor in charge ran away and left Lieutenant Parker in charge of the place. - Ho also writes that all the better class of natives are anxious to have the United States assume control of the islands, and that it will be a fine place for young men to build themselves up in business after the war has terminated. Model for Ilronte Door. The board of monument regents held an adjourned meeting yesterday afternoon for tho purpose of agreeing upon a model for the double bronze doors for the monument A model prepared by Rudolph Schwartz, of ths city, which is of very beautiful de sign, was finally selected, and the secre tary of the board was instructed to adver tlso for bids, which are to be based on the molel selected. The bKls will be pon?d nt the next meeting, which will be held the latter part of March. Must Pay or Stand Snii. Factory Inspector McAbee said yesterday that unless tho Republic Iron and Steel Company pay its men to-day for the work up to Feb. 10 he will bring suit against it Monday to enfoice the weekly payment law. lie says that the report that the com pany had paid the men last Saturday, and thus prevented suit on the part of the in speetor. was untrue, as the men had only been paid for the work done the last fifteen days in January. Evidence In the Kyle Cnse. All the evidence has been heard in the Mtivln Kyle case in the Federal Court and the arguments will begin this morning. The evidence for the defense consisted chiefly of Kyle's own denial and statements of several men with whom he worked in the mail service as to bis character and as to the nature of several records of the mall serv ice which had been Introduced In evidence R.

MAN MAY BE RELEASED

JUDGE LEATIIERS'S DECISION IX A WIFE-BEATIXG CASE. Power of the Police Jndge In Assault and Battery Cases A Stockyards Case Other Court Cases Judge "Leathers, of the Superior Court, yesterday announced a decision that will doubtless be very unpopular with wives whose husbands show a tendency to administer corporal punishment to them. If the court is right In Its views the work house is probably full of men who have no right there and who are illegally detained. This question arose In the habeas corpus suit brought by James Small against William Essmann, superintendent of the work house, and Joseph Collier, who some time ago acted as special Judge In the city Police Court. Collier was acting in this capacity on Sept. 19, 1S99, and on that date the plaintiff in the case, was convicted of the charge of assault and battery on his wife. Special Judge Collier heard the evidence and assessed a fine of $100 against Small and sent him to the workhouse for 120 days. Small now brings suit for his release on the ground that this sentence and fine was Illegal and void. In tho argument before Judge Leathers yesterday it was contended that the police judgo has no right to assess a fine of more than $25 in a case of assault and battery and cannot add imprisonment as a part of the punishment. It is asserted that the Jurisdiction of a police Judge, un der the law, is the same as that of a Jus tice of the peace. Judge Leathers Indi cated that he was Inclined to share the view of the plaintiff's attorney In this mat ter and said he would hold that the plaintiff la illegally imprisoned. County Attorney Brown, who appeared for the defendants, said that while he was also inclined to the belief that the court was interpreting the law correctly, he would not like for the record to show a judgment against the defendants until he had time to investigate the matter more thoroughly. Both court and attorneys recognized the Importance of the questions Involved, and Judge Leathers said he would hold the matter in abeyance until to-day to give the county attorney an opportunity of examining the law. Should the attorney fall to show the court where It is In error in this case, the plaintiff, Small, will probably be released to-day. JESSE II. STAATS'S SLIT. He Alleges that a Hospital Attendant Broke Ilia 1Mb a. Jesse II. Staats yesterday began an ac tion for damages against George F. Edenharter, superintendent of the Central Hos pital for the Insane, and Franklin M. Wiles, an assistant physician at the hospital. The plaintiff says that during the summer of 1S9S he was afflicted with ma larial fever and sometimes became flighty. A commission investigated his sanity, and he was sent to the Insane Hospital for treatment. He charges that the defendants sent him to Ward "Z," where the violently Insane are kept, Instead of send ing him where he could have the. careful nursing his condition required. The plaintiff charges that while he was in this ward he was set upon by Edward Brown," one of the attendants, who was very strong, and badly, used. He charges that he was held by an attendant named James Prather while Brown assaulted him. Three of his ribs were broken, he asserts. He says he sent for Dr. Edenharter, and the latter refused -td "visit him, and Dr. Wiles refused to prescribe for him. The plaintiff charges that as the result of his experience in the hospital he is physically unable to earn his own living. He demands damages In the sum of $10,000. ' 1 9" SPOILED HER VOICE. An Amended Complaint In the Dam ac Salt of Harriet II. Clevenirer. An amended complaint has been filed in the Superior Court in'the suit of Harriet H. Clevenger against John and Philip Owen, proprietors of uthe When building. Miss Clevenger is an actress and formerly kept a school of elocution In the When building. When the property was remodeled her business was seriously Interfered with. She came down one morning and found that the walls of the room had been torn away. She avers she had to stand on the sidewalk and receive her pupils, who were of tender age and required looking after. The weather was bitterly cold, she says. She also says that during zero weather she was compelled to go about the city and seek another room, and as a result of the exposure she became afflicted with throat trouble and her voice was ruined. She demands $6,000 damages. The attorney for the defendants filed a demurrer to this complaint, asserting that It was Miss Clevenger' s own fault that she exposed herself, and she ought not to hold the defendants responsible for what she did. GALLUP ESTATE TAXES. Directions for .an Increased JadgmentHlgh Conrt Decisions. The case of Edward P. Gallup, executor, against William H. Schmidt, treasurer of Marlon county, came up for rehearing before the Supreme Court yesterday, was reversed and remanded to the Circuit Court with directions to increase the Judgment against the estate in the amount of $3,700, which will make the total amount of the Judgment $T.2,718.69. t A judgment enjoining the Big Four Railroad from making a fill across-the bed of the old Wabash and Erlo. canal, was affirmed by the Supreme Court. A Judgment for $1,200 recovered by Marcus Hotsenpiller against the Creamery Package Manufacturing Company was reerscd by the Appellate Court. The Appellate Court affirmed the decision of the lower court in giving Asa Eden a Judgment against James Green and Anderson W. Heinly on account of injuries received, due to the negligence of the defendants while driving the hospital ambulance. THE JVOTE CANCELED. Judge Allen Scathingly Criticises an . Attorney. Judge Allen, of the Circuit Court, yesterday decided the suit of Lillle Gordon against Frank M. Branthoover in favor of the plaintiff. The suit was to have a note canceled on the ground that It was fraudulently executed. Branthoover is an attorney, who formerly lived In this city. The plaintiff is a colored woman, who was his client. She testified that she was having some trouble over a piece of property, and her attorney advised her to make out a note for $s)0 payable to her mother. She says that Branthoover Inserted his own name In the note, instead of her mother's. He turned the note over to his wife, from whom he ha separated, in payment of a debt. Lillle Gordon brought suit to have the note canceled, and Branthoover's wife filed a cross-complaint, asking that payment be enforced, since she had come by It innocently. Judge Allen canceled the note and remarked' incidentally that Branthoover ought to be in the penitentiary. THE CLAIM XOT GOOD. Jmlge Leuthers Refuses to Allow It to Go to the Jury. The suit for damages on account of al leged breach of contract, brought by Henry F. Cloud against Ell F. Ritter, has been thrown out of court. The suit was brought in Room 2, Superior Court, and went to trial two or three days ago. Two pieces

You have Been it suddenly and without warning, sieze the victim In its relentless grasp and fairly wrench asunder the fibers of the nervous system. That terrible pain in the back of the head and shooting up and down the spine, the throbbing temples, the aching back and legs, the soreness in muscles and bones as if bruised or beaten, the feeble pulse, the tottering step all these are familiar to you. But have you noticed the after effecta of LaGrlppe?

Cloud, It appears, purchased two lots of Captain Ritter and after paying $50 on them, gave a mortgage for the remainder. He failed to pay oft the mortgage, however, and finally had some trouble with his wife. As a settlement of their difficulty the North Indianapolis real estate was conveyed to her. It is claimed that Cloud then came to Captain Ritter and requested him to foreclose the mortgage on the property. A suit for foreclosure was brought, but while it -was pending. Cloud, it is claimed, persuaded his wife to deed the property back to Captain Ritter and as an inducement for her to do this, he paid her $15. It Is claimed that Cloud then called on Ritter and requested that he be allowed to redeem the lots and was told by Ritter that if he would pay oft the mortgages within a ycarhe might have the property. A year passed and the mortgages were not paid off. Then, according to the evidence. Cloud began an action against Ritter for $1,000 on account of the latter's alleged failure to keep the terms of a contract. Judge Leathers decided that the plaintiff did not have a good case and declined to allow It to go to the Jury. Ordered to Pay tbe Money. In the Circuit Court yesterday Judge Allen Instructed the city attorney to direct the city controller to Issue a warrant on the treasurer for $5,000, payable to Jasper O. Tansell, who holds a Judgment against the city for $7,000. Tansell sued the city on account of personal Injuries and received a verdict for this amountf There is only $5,000 In the fund set aside by the city tcrpay judgments, and the city attorney had refused to order the controller to Issue the warrant. Mandatory proceedings were brought by Tansell, and the matter came up yesterday before Judge Allen. The Snlt la Dismissed. The suit for receiver brought by Charles E. .Rockwood against his partners in the firm of Harrellr Tibbs, Gish & Co., brokers at the Union stockyards, was dismissed yesterday and the differences between Rockwood and the other members of the firm will be adjusted out of court. A Snlt on Notes. The Richmond Stove Company has sued Isaac L. Frankem on notes which It is claimed the defendant executed to the company. It is claimed the notes have been lost. Judgment is demanded for $1,375. THE COURT RECORD. SUPREME COURT. 1S37L P. & E. Ry Co. vs. A., C. & S. Ry Co. Fountain C. C. Affirmed in part and reversed in part. Baker, J.-l. Where there is no demurrer filed to the complaint in the trial court the complaint on appeal will be held sufficient if It states- facts sufficient to bar another action. 2. If a complaint Is tested by demurrer, all Inferences and intentions arc taken against the pleader, but where a complaint is first challenged after a Judgment has been ren dered. all Inferences and intendments are taken in favor of the pleader, and there must be a total failure to state some essential element of right of recovery to render the complaint insufficient. 3. Marking a street on a plat does not of Itself create a street, but there must be an acceptance by the proper local authorities or by general public user. 4. A landlord may have an intermeddler enjo ned from making a permanent obstruction on his property. 18S12. Gallup vs. Schmidt. Marion C. C. Reversed. Hadley, C. J. 1. An executor has no authority outside of the county of his appointment except as It is given him by the court; and is ever present and ofttcally a resident in the county during the pendency of his trust, and is required without notice other than presentation to answer to every sort of claim or demand, wUain the Jurldiction of the court, asserted against the assets in als hands for administration, and he is amenable to the taxing laws, so far as they affect his trust, In the same manner as it his personal residence is in the county, and although he may be personally a nonresident but as an officer of the court he Is ever present. 2. The courts are open to those only who are aggrieved and a person will not be permitted to assail a revenue statute on behalf of others who are making no complaint. 3. An assessment by a county auditor Is only prima facie correct, relief against which may be had through the courts. 4. If a party against whose property an assessment has been made, is at any time in the course of the proceeding, before a conclusive judgment is tendered, afforded by law an opportunity to contest Its correctness, he is accorded due process of law within the meaning of tne fourteenth amendment of Article 4 of Section 2 of the federal Constitution. 5. The right to tax property is a sovereign light reserved to the Jurisdiction charged with the duty of Us protection, and the authority of a taxing district to require all classes of property sheltered by it to pay its rateable proportion of the expenses of maintaining the government Is unaffected by the residence of the owner. 6. The Legislature has plenary power to create a tax for public revenue against all property located In the State and to provide the procedure for Itr. levy and collection. 7. When the purpose of a statute is to aid In the collection of public revenue it must be liberally construed. 8. A plaintiff may bring his suit as soon as his right of action accrues, but whether he shall proceed with It depends upon whether he has given the defendant such notice as the law requires. 9.

Even after the disease is apparently dead, the physical weakness, mental apathy and depression of spirits remain. Chronic disorders, which before were unable to gain a foothold, now find an open door, inviting entrance to the system. But there is a remedy that cures LaGrippe and removes Its dangerous after effects. There are hundreds of men and women in almost every community, who were weak and despondent, unable to work, and without courage, but who have recovered health, heart and ambition through the remarkable healing and strengthening qualities of r.
