INTERURBAN FRANCHISE
M2W HOARD OF WOnKS TO TKE ACTION IMMEDIATELY. Lonsr Line of Oiflceieeker In Major's Itoom Council to lloll Special Meeting To-XlRht. George F. McCulloch, president of the Union Traction Company, was before the Board of Works yesterday afternoon to reiterate the statements he made on other occasions regarding the necessity of the board taking immediate action on the interurban franchise cpjestion. Mr. McCulloch said he desired the board to make terms whereby the Union Traction Company's cars may enter the city at the earliest day possible. "The roads are entitled to a final consideration of this subject." said Mr. McCulloch. "It is a subject in which tho companies and the city are vitally interested, and for that reason the matter should be settled at once. The three companies which have been foolish enough to build their roads are at your mercy. "vVe will be obliged to accept what your board gives us. The question is how much encouragement will you give to the eight or ten similar roads which may be built when an adjustment of the matter is made. Our road would not have been built to Indianapolis had we known there would have been such a delay and controversy in getting a franchise. "We are not asking for any specific thing, as we must take and accept what the board deems advisable, but it is due my company that the matter be taken up at once by the new Board of Works and the new City Council. The last contract prepared by the old board Is satisfactory to us and we refer the matter to the new board. We would like the board to take action this week, so that the contract can be sent to the Council Monday night. We want to make arrangements lor the winter if the board does not care to take up the matter at once. We will not run cars into the city until we are granted permission by the board and Council in the proper manner. Our line carried lio.uio passengers to Indianapolis during September, and we are ready to dump t he gas belt into Indianapolis when we are given a franchise." Chairman Megrew and Mr. Logsdon deemed it advisable to take the matter under advisement for a few days, but at a subsequent conference with Mayor Rookwalter it was thought best to take action on the interurban franchise matter the last of this week so that the contract can go to the Council Monday night. AVISII TO WOHK FOR CITY. Lone Line of oniccsceker In Mayor Ilooknnller'n Ofllee. A steady stream of officeseekers poured into the mayor's office yesterday afternoon, and most of them took their turn In line to await the pleasure of the mayor. A few remained in the office until nearly 6 o'clock without having an opportunity of making their wants known to Mayor Bookwalter. The mayor was closeted part of the afternoon with Chairman Megrew and Mr. Logsdon. of the Hoard of Works, relative to the appointments to be made under the jurisdiction of the board, and the list probably will be made public to-morrow morning. Mayor Rookwalter said last evening that he was not ready to make known any additional appointments, but there may be a few announced by the end of the week. The question of selecting a suitable engineer to succeed City Engineer Jeup is occupying the attention of Mayor Bookwalter. There are several applicants for the place. Xnrth Illinnift-Strcet Pnrf ment. Vice President Jones, of the Indianapolis Street-railway Company, and Clarence Kenyon, of the Hoosier Construction Company, were before the Board of Works yesterday at the request of the board, which is trying to arrange matters so that the Hoosier Company can complete the laying of blocks on North Illinois street and get the street open for traffic. The street car company is anxious to complete the paving between the tracks and the two could not agree on the question of the street-railway company permitting the Hoosier Company to secure its blocks first. Terms were made whereby the Hoosier Company was to pave eighteen inches outside the tracks, the street-railway company to pay for the work. Sneclnl Meeting of Conncil To-MrM. There will be a special meeting of the City Council to-night for the purpose of announcing the appointment of committees. President Haldeman said last night that he had not completed the list of committees, but will be ready to-night to make the appointments. He said he has endeavored to appoint men on the committees who are suitable for the work they will be required to do. The election of a councilman to fill the chair vacated by Mr. Megrew may be held at the regular meeting Monday night. There are now four candidates for the place, Albert Daller. James Munro, W. H. Wheeler and Lew Shank. The lirst three served in the last Council. HOARD OF WORKS ROUTINE. FINAL ASSESSMENT ROLLS APPROVED.

POLLUTION OF STREAMS. Dr. Hurty Think There I o Danger of Factories Moving Away. Some citizens of Anderson and Knightstown are agitated because of the attitude toward stream pollution manifested by Dr. J. N. Hurty, secretary of the State Board of Health. Dr. Hurty has stated that the pollution of water which goes on in many cities of the State, caused by dumping refuse from distilleries, strawboard factories, and steel plants into streams, is dangerous to public health and must be corrected. He has received word that several northern Indiana newspapers, and the citizens of the two cities mentioned and cithers, are afraid that if the steel trust and other bi corporations which come within the circle of his censure are made to conform to the requirements of the law. they will move their plants to cities where no action will be taken against them. Dr. Hurty stated yesterday that he believed the fears of the gas belt newspapers are groundless. "There is no reason," he said, "why the abuse cannot be remedied without loss or great inconvenience to the manufacturing institutions, which are the greatest sinners at the present time. What I have said and done has come from personal investigation at the instance of local board of health and popular complaint. I do not think It necessary for factories to pour poison Into streams; there are means convenient and cheap of getting rid of refuse other than endangering public health. Nor. in my humble opinion, will any corporation cut oiT its nose to spite its face." CliaiiKCM at tli Poatofllcc.
