Lend er Declare to Present Mnjor that if He Hnckx Out It Will Hi l'Mva rtliee. It Is rractically certain that Mayor T;igarart will not accept a r. nomination if it is offered to him. lie Rave the Democratic city committee his personal assurantv to that effect last niht. He advised the committee tu agree upon some other candidate. The Democratic city committee assembled at the headquarters of the state executive committee. In the Lombard building, last night, presumably for the sole purpose of determining the date of the Democratic primaries to elect a city ticket, but after this business wa transacted Chairman Fanning uncovered another little scheme which made the most of those present formet the date that had been agreed upon for the primaries jn their eagerness to embrace Mr. Fanning' new proposal. The object of this scheme was to prrsuaüe Mayor Taggart to accept a renomination. It became known for the first time to a number of thune present that Mr. Taggart bad prepared a letter for immediate publication, in which he stated that he would not accept a renomination for mayor If It were given him. and it was at once decided that It the Democrats wern to have him fur their candidate the city committee would have to act without delay. MR. M0ÜRK FORGOTTEN. Not one word was said about the faet that William F. Moore, a loyal Democrat, had publicly anntuneed his candidacy for the nomination of major. No ono seemed to think it would be Indecorous for the city committee to publicly invite another Democrat to be a candidate, ard tho name of Mr. Moore seemed to be completely forgotten. A committee composed of Thomas L. Sullivan. W. W. Spencer. John J. Apptl and J. K. Mcl'uiiJiiKh wan hastily appointed and instructed to tirst persuade and then threaten Mayor Taggart if he declined to accept tho nomination The committee lost no time in tiadinx the mayor ami explaining the object of its Visit. Mr. Sullivan was the principal spokesman, and when ho had finished what he had to ay there was nothing left to Le said. He attempted to persuade Mr. Taggart that he was ' the logical candidate; that the people wanted him, and, what was more, they were going to have him. To all of the entreaties of the committee llajor -TaKgart turned a deaf tar, and persistently declined to accept the honor which the committee sought to thrust upon him. Finally, growing dentate, the committer in.-isted that if Mr. Tafijjart refused to run again the party would like it a? an evidence of cowardice. Mr. Taggart winced at this thrust, but stuck to nia original reäolutioti. A STRING TO IT. Finally, just before the committee left. Mr. Taggart promised that he would withhold the letter he had written for publkacation for a few days, and with this the committee vas forced to bo sati'tlod. It was after 11 o'clock when It returned to headquarters and broke the news. Several of the committeemen talj after tho meeting had adjourned that they still had hopes that Mr. Taggart would accept the nomination, as his promise to withhold his letter irom publication, even though it might be for only a few days, gave them room X'or encouragement The primaries will bo held between the hours of 11 a. m. und s p. m. on Monday. Aug. lo. At the suggestion of Chairman Fanning It was decided to mike a sixtyday poll, and the book? will be distributed among the precinct committeemen ' about Aug. 7. Ilia i'lnnrpc "Unekrd Out.'

III'MIAM SWS IT I II 1'Vb.MS III RTF I L (OMI'KTITmN. Denial tlint Pli? lelnn Und nn Alllmice - lrlt h Justice of tlie Peace I.oeUmnn. The City Hoard of Health last night completed its investigation relative to the alleged irregularities in the matter of handling insanity cases by employes of the city at the free Dispensary. Following Is the verdict made last night after a personal examination of Superintendent J. F. Benham. Dr. J. F. Hicks. II. A. Jacobs. J. It. Young, Klwood Gray. Drivers Thomas F. Delaney and Henry Heid and Matron Mrs. Elizabeth Cronnon: "In our judgment some affidavits were rr.ade after too brief a period of observation, but we are convinced that they expressed the honest opinions of the aoiants aftfr personal examination of the patient. "There Is no evidence that any affidavit was ever made for the purpose of securing witness fees either for the affiant or for any other person connected with the Institution. "There is no evidence of any medical attendant or examining physician ever in-j-tipating an investiKatlon knowing that the patient was not insane. "There is no evidence of any pool of all employes of the Dispensary for the purpose of dividing the fees from insanity inquests. "There is no evidence of an understanding or agreement between Dispensary employes and any justice of the peace for mutual benefit. "There is a mutual understanding between the tlvo Dispensary internes by which they share equally the legitimate fees of th institution, such as insanity Inquest fees, autopsies and coroner's fees, neither the superintendent. ambulance drivers nor other employes participating In th division of such fees." This statement was signed by Drs. V. A. Morrison. K. D. Moffet and C. C. Keyer. SFPT. HEXHAM'S STATEMENT. Farlier in the day affidavits were made by each of the attaches of the Dispensary, denying the existence of a "pool" for the division of Insanity fees. East night It was shown that there was an agreement among the five internes for the equal division of all fees received. Dr. Denham, the superintendent, upon his examination, said the agreement was known to him and was by his sanction in force. He recited an Instance several years ago when such an agreement did exist, but was broken by one of the members of the dispensary force who sought to secure for himself more fees than the others and this resulted at the time in a noticeable increase in the number of Insanity commissions held and the dismissal of the Interne, there being a certain incenthe to each Interne not to miss anything for himself. He fa id he had not. nor had the matron. Mrs. Cronnon. nor the ambulance drivers, Thomas Delaney and Henry Heid, shared In the division of the fees. He thought such an agreement a matter of fairness to each, and, in fact, a safe-guard, preventing competition among physicians. He thought it should be explained that the division was not of fee3 from insanity inquests alone, but of court fees, autopsies and witness fees when testimony was given before the coroner. He knew of no agreement that any justice of the peace was to have all of the cases sent to him. He also said that a few days before the recent agitation of tho matter be had directed the internes to distribute the cases among the various Justices. He said he had heard of no such complaints against any of the Internes and their conduct toward pat'ents. and he had no knowledge of any physician connected with the Dispensary making charges for attendance. COMPLIMENTED THE INTERNES. He said he had found all members of the Dispensary staff under him gentlemanly in their conduct and thought none so lowminded as to instigate proceedings which would deprive any person of liberty without what they would consider just cause. The testimony of each of the attaches of the Dispensary was in about the same tenor, all denying that any inquests had been brought about for the purpose of securing fees, knowing at the time there was no good ground for confining a person. The questions put by the committee were pointed and of a nature designed to bring out Information. Members of the board left the Dispensary with a feeling that the internes had been fair and honest and had been subjected to much unfavorable criticism, even though made in good faith, by reason of Insufficient investigation into the true nature of the cases. There was also a feeling that Justice of the Peace Iickman had exercised a dominating influence ever some members of the staff. Two members of the committee expressed sympathy for Matron Cronnon. who mado many of the affidavits. She had not participated in the division of any of the fees and it was claimed made the affidavits upon being assured by Luckm'm that it was her duty to do so. Fn vor Secret Invent int ion. There was a lull In the insanity investigation yesterday so far as the Board of State Charities was concerned. Secretary Butler remained in his office in the Statehouse all day and when asked on what day the board will resume its investigation replied, "I cannot say as to that, I leave that matter to the board." Senator Thomas 1Z. Ellison, of Fort Wayne, a member of the board, remained in the city yesterday, after spending Tuesday nlht at Central Hospital. This was taken as an indication that the investigation will be resumed this morning. Prof. Uutler declared himself heartily In favor of secret investigations of such charges as have been made against city Dispensary Internes and employes. "You nevr heard of anything being discovered In a public Investigation," lie said. Cure Shown In In 111 eat. The papers in the case of Newton Elliott, of Southport, who was adjudged to be insane, show considerable more care in their preparation than other such papers for several months. The commission was composed of Justice William S. bookman. Dr. T. W. Curry and Dr. 11. C. Itoyer. all of whom go into debate In thHr sworn statements. Elliott thinks someone is trying to injure him and tr!t? to get away from the Imaginary person. At times he is violent and fi short time ago injured his sister who was confined to her bed. A member of hl3 family made the affidavit upon which the commission acted. AN ARMY POST HERE. Senntor Fnlrbnnkn Imlumr Commercial CIuh'M Plan. The special committee of the Commercial Club appointed to look after the project of securing the location of a regular army post and camp of instruction in this city has presented Its plan to Senator Fairbank?, who Indorses it and suggests that immediate action be taken. The idea is to purchase !. acres of ground on either Fall creek or White river, from four to ten miles from the city, and present it to the government .ri exchange for the Arsenal tract, the latter to be ued as a location for the Fniversity of Indianapolis. The army post de!red to ! located here would be one of four provided for in an .ot pa-ed by tlv last Congress. It would b occupied contanlly by from ten to fourteen rompanles of "regulars" and lr. addition a cirri' of Jnvtriation would be maintained t" which the militias of surrounding States would com ai intervals. If a post of llda kind Is located here it would mean.

INTERNES

It is said, the expenditure of several million dollars by the government within the next few years. Major Shaler. commandant of the Arsenal, considers Indianapolis an ideal location for an army post o:i account of its being so near th" ccnttr of population and on account of 1M admirable transportation facilities. Major Shaler cites the further fact that from this section cf the country a large per cent, of Spanish-American war volunteers and recruits was drawn.

A WOMAN KILLED. Mr. Trnbne, Colored, Fell tint of a Wngon Ilefore u Locomotive. Mrs. JoMo Trabue, colored, fifty years of age. was kill 1 yesterday morning at Norwool by being run over by a Big Four engine. She was driving to the city with Mrs. Laura Müh r, h r daughter-in-law, and s-at on a chair in the roar of the wagon. Mrs. Mliir whipped the horse to get across the track in front of the engine, which was coming toward them and was not far away. The sudden start caused Mrs. Trabue's chair to tip backward and she was thrown out and on to the track directly in front of the engine, which ran over her. Pieces of the body were picked up alor:g the track for some disiam . e. They were taken to the city morgue by City Dispensary riot tors. ine trainmen ret used to pic k up the por tions of th1 bodv distributed aio the track and left the work for the Dispensary fmysieians ro do. The ambulance was deayed for about an hour through a misunderstanding. The woman lived on Perkins pike with her husband and seven children. WORK OF TAX BOARD It OVAL ARCH MASONS OF CKAWFOHIIS VILLI! AI'FHAL. Commissioners Have Not Decided tlint They Will Finploy Tax Ferrets. The State Board of Tax Commissioners at Us session yesterday morning resumed the hearing of the appeal brought by the Pittsburg Plate Glass Company, of Elwood, from the assessment made by the Madison County' Board of Review. The company seeks to have its assessment reduced from $100,000 to $63,000. The Royal Arch Masons of Crawfordsvillo presented an appeal from their assessment by the Montgomery County Board of Review. Tho lower taxing tribunal placed mortgages belonging to the lodge amounting to J3.100 on the duplicate for the first time this year. The lodgo protested on the ground that it is a charitable Institution and not subject to taxation. State Auditor Kart, who Is a member of the Tax Board, was asked last evening if the board had ccrae to any decision with reference to the offer made by Tax Ferrets Leslie and Ayres to collect taxes all over the State on a percentage basis. "We have not decided that matter," he replied, "but have it still under advisement." The appeals on the docket for to-day's session of the t(.ard are: The Standard oil Company, from the Marion County Board of Review; the Cumberland Telephone and Telegraph Company. from Vanderburg County Board or Review; Standard Oil Company, from Vanderburg County Board of Review; Michael Grimmer, from Lake County Board oJ Review; Bo Grand T. Meyer, from the Bake County Board of Review. Tho appeals of Grimmer and Mes'er possess more than ordinary interest. Mr. Grimmer is auditor of Lake county, and by virtue of his office occupies a position on the County Board of Review. The board as an entirety assessed the personal property of the Standard Oil Company in Whiting at $t,Gö,l;v,v paying no attention to additional improvements. Mr. Grimmer took an appeal from this assessment to the State Tax Board, alleging that the company should bo assessed J-ij0.(m on additional improvements and on personal property at least $.;oo,0oa. Mr. Meyer, as trustee for another holds a note which he claims Is listed for taxation in Illinois. He is. however, acting as trustee under an Indiana court and the Lake County Board of Review placed the note on the duplicate, hence Mr. Meyer's appeal to the State board. Frank Martin, secretary of the tax board, said yesterday that he understood the Standard Oil Company's appeal from Vanderburg county involves the question of the right to as.-ess franchises. ONE CROP FOILS DROUGHT DAILY HARVEST OF NEW CORPORATIONS CONTINUES LARGE. Telephone, Oil, Lnntl and Grocery CompnnlcM Kile Article, with Varied Capital. "There is one consolation," said Secretary of State Hunt yesterday. "If the drought Is injuring- corn it has had no perceptible effect on the crop of new incorporations." Mr. Hunt's statement is easily demonstrable to any one who will examine the records of the se-cretary'3 office, day by day, for many weeks past. As a rule, the incorporations flow into the otTice in a steady, although not large;, stream each day. Occasionally, however, the stream is exceptionally large. Yesterday was a fair averaige day. The Odcll Telephone Company, of Glen Hall. Tippecanoe county, Indiana, riled articles stating the capitalization to be $10,000. The company intends to maintain and operate telephones and exchanges in Tippecanoe, Montgomery and Fountain counties. The stockholders are Samuel Ik Lutz, William B. Foresman and Harry G. Lutz. The Citizens Land Company, of South Uend, is capitalized at $10. 'v0 and its directors are Arthur Kennedy, J. McM. Smith and Jasper Carst. The odon Oil Company, with a capital of Ja.'".1", proposes to sink and operate gjs and oil wells in Daviess county. Tne principal office will lie in Ovlon. Daviess county. The directors and oitiecrs are: President, Henry H. Crooke; vice president. Milo Smiley; secretary. Daniel W. Haves; treasurer. Belden I). Sniü-y; Caleb K. O'Dell. John A. Ward. Lowry Cooper. Court Levi, Albert Diefendorf and William J. Dinner. The Marion Grocers' Company, capitalized at ?.".(m., will conduct its business in Marion, Grant county. Its directors are A. W. Carr for three years, Ed Leapley and P. G. Pow is lor two years and Guy Fshelman and Robert W. Shugarl for one yea r. A straw indicating that the wind of prosperity is blowing over Indiana was the tiling of a notice by the Acme Milling Company, of Aurora, that it has decided to create and issue preferred stock to the amount of F.o.mn. The only kind of stock heretofore authorized by this company was common, and the issue was limited to JIj.ikV. The new issue raises the capitalization to ". Only one foreign incorporation filed articles yesterday Hunter W. French & Co.. or Chicago. Its designated Indiana repre sentative is Edward It. Dye, of Monticello. TO KEEP FOURTH WARD DRY.

CAli GOODS BOOM

CAl'SEO HA" THE IJHOl GUT KILLING GROWING VEGETABLES. I'roftpcet I tlint Itetnller Will Open the Next Season with Emptr Shel es. GREAT SCARCITY OF BEANS PRICE EXPECTED TO GO TO $.1 WITHIN TWO WEEKS. Plenty of Corn, and Suinll Crop at Cotton Would Help Dry Goods IIiiKinefts. "Trade in wholesale grocery lines continues good in spite of the hot weather and the drought," said William Kothe, of Koine. Wells & Bauer, yesterday. "This is because of the scarcity of all kinds of vegetables, which forces the consumer to use canned goods and dried fruits. We have never had such a trade in canned goods since we have been in business as we have had during the past week. We are getting ?1 a doz n for tomatoes, and expect the price to be $1.10 next week. "It looks as if the retailer will go into the new season with empty shelves. When you figure that it would cot 57 cents a dozen to 'put up water in three-pound cans, you can realize that the present prices, although they may seem high, ate really not out of proportion. I don't think there is any doubt that everything in the canned Roods line will bring much higher prices this fall than during the past spring. "Broom corn has doubled in value within the last forty, days, and it looks as if brocms would go much higher than they are now. "We are paying 52. 00 cash for beans today, with a prostet of a $3 price within the next two weeks. The explanation for this lies in the great scarcity of beans. What the new crop will sell for is guesswork. "It Is impossible to get a price from any packer on pickles or kraut. These articles may bring extreme prices if wc o not have a general rain very soon. "There Is n. general tie-up of teamsters and dock hands on the coast, and this has about paralyzed the canning industry in California. Unless the difttculty is settled within the next few days the results will be very serious. The canners have all withdrawn prices, and will not accept any orders until the strikers settle. "The present strike in the Fast has made most ot the packers very nervous because only a small proportion of them were able to buy cans and store them in their factories. The rest of them have placed orders for August shipment and it is simply a question of how long the strike may last whether thev will get their cans or not. "Taking the condition of the tomato and corn crops and the uncertainty of the cans, the packers are certainly not in an enviable situation, it looks very much as if they are 'up against the real thing.' "Providence plays a wonderful part in the equalization of commerce and crops," continued Mr. Kothe. "Sixty days ago the packers were begging for orders and making all kinds of concessions. Now you cannot lind a packer that will even name a price. At that time it looked as if there would be unprcccdentedly large crops of all kinds, but along came the month's drought and completely changed things." xxx "The drought has affected our business In two ways," said a representative of Hibben, Hollweg Co., wholesale dry goods, yesterday. "One effect has been to cause us uneasiness as to the probable amount of corn that will be harvested and the other is in the uncertainty over the cotton crop. Plenty of corn and a small crop of cotton would mean a better price ftr cotton goods, but the reverse would leave the matter in uncertainty. "The general condition of the dry goods trade has, however, been satisfactory. 1 do not remember a time when we have had as brisk a summer trade as we have had this year. Our advance order business for fall has been unusually good. Customers have paid well, which is another good indication. Indeed, everything points to better conditions this fall than wo have seen for several years. "When you come to think of it, dry goods are not high. They are extremely cheap when compared with other tilings. There is room for an advance of several points in many lines. A number of calico manufacturers have been threatening an advance for tho past three weeks, but it has not come yet. I think they are like the balance cf the trade, holding off on account of the weather and crop conditions." xxx Charles O'Connor, of the wholesale grocery house of M. O'Connor & Co., said yesterday: "Beans are going up because of the fact that old stocks arc about exhausted and the prospect for the new crop is by no means bright. Potatoes in Indiana oro doomed this season. Syrup is soaring in price. All grades of prunes have advanced one-half cent a pound. Some grades of cheap baking powder are going up because of the corn-starch used in 'filling them. Corn is high and therefore cornstarch has gone up in price." South Carolina's Prosperity T. S. Cox, general agent of the State Life Insurance Company in South Carolina, visited State Auditor Hart yesterday afternoon in company with "Wilbur S. Wynn, secretary and actuary of the company. Mr. Cox talked enthusiastically of the financial ami commercial condition of his State. "We now have more cotton mill spindles than anv other State In the Union except Massachusetts, and I think that is remarkable in view of our small size," he said. THE 0ESERVANT BANKER. Conflict with n Patron Thnt Thinks He Should Spruce l'p.' The Observant Banker ha? not let it become generally known, but during his many years of experience in conducting a financial institution he has kept close tab on the countless peculiarities of his customers. It would be difficult to state whether the peculiarities or tho customers are the more numerous, since the banker has grown gray in his chosen profession and naturally has formed the acquaintance of a host of clients. In a burst of confidence the Observant Banker yesterday told of some of these peculiar customers of his. "For instance." ho said, "there Is tha well-dressed customer that feels a kindly interest In me personally. He tells me that It Is time I purchased a new hat. that a silk hat would look well on me. Ho announces that a man of my ge ought to wear a long-tailed coat by all means. 'By sprucing up a little, he says, 'you will notice a chanpe in your business. Why. It is an obligation you owe as a mark of respect to your customers.' Then this friendly counselor tells me that 1 ought to gel my clothes in Boston. 'You are a victim.' he declares, 'if you continue to patronize the tailor that has been your cli-nt for years.' In h'.s sartorial lecture my customer does not frrget to tell me that he thinks the cut of my whiskers could be irpprovt.i considerably. 'I notice that you do not wear any Jewelry,' he says, with evident pain in his voice. 'A seal ring Is just the proper caper. No ore will know whether it was your great-grandfather's or not and It will" look solid and substantial and will carry with it the air of money.' "Of course I smile and look pleased and tell my customer that he is partly riht. but that I have run quite a long time as I am and do not care to change. I add that 1 ft el on me the mark of my ancestors and realize- that I am one of th? class that was cast out or the temple a couple oi thousand years ago. and for -his reason do not desire to become too conspicuous. I remind my client that possibly if I should adopt the changes he suggests the rank and f i I r of my customers would say I am contem

plating another marriage or that I am going to break up. either of which opinions would hurt my feelings and irritate me greatly."

NEW LEASE ON LIFE. Supreme Court (irnnti John Rlnkuril a Stay of Execution.
