The president rn tern, rapped sharply with his gavel. "The bill la Indefinitely postponed." he said, and the host of Senate bill No. H3 fled through the ceiling. CROWDED WITH VISITORS. The Senate did very little else at morning and afternoon sessions than to debate on the Hendee till. It was called up as a f pedal order of business at 11 o'clock yesterday mprning. Interest in the measure was general, and the Senate was crowded with visitors at both sessions. Representatives of powerful corporations which have been fighting the bill desperately were present. Many prominent lawyers, attracted by the legal problems involved, had seats where they could hear the speeches. Many women who delight In oratorical fireworks secured eats and remained throughout the wearisome hours. Governor Durbln came in shortly before the bill was called up and occupied a seat with the president of the Senate. It was known that the Governor favored the passage of the measure, as it had been submitted to him by the attorney general before being presented by Senator Handee. and because it contained a clause that would have permitted the legal authorities of the State to oust John S. Dudley, sheriff of Sullivan county, in defiance of the statutes and the Governor's ruling-. Attorney General Miller, directly Interested in the measure, was present both morning and afternoon, consulting frequently with Senator Hendee and putting in a good word for the bill whenever he found an opportunity with such senators as he knew to be opposed to It. . When the hour of 11 o'clock came Senator Hendee took the floor at once and began to speak for the bill. He used up nearly an hour In presenting its virtues and delivered an address which was clear, direct and forcible. It was Interspersed with legal citations relieved by humor, and from every standpoint it was regarded as a masterly argument. In brief. Senator Hendee's speech was as follows: ORIGIN OF THE DILI. "Some few months ag( the State of Indiana and the newspapers In the State were agitated, and the entire commonwealth was suffering from a lack of coal, and It was then generally believed that the coal operators of the State had combined, and under these circumstances the attorney general began to Investigate the subject to sec what he could do for the State in the event a combination did exist. He was forced to the amazing conclusion that he could literally do nothing. There was no law on the statute books which would enable him to proceed against this combination if it existed. His hands were tied. "Another matter which existed and partly accounted for the origin of this bill was the Sullivan county sheriff matter. It was found on looking up the law on that subject that the attorney general could not move, even If the sheriff in that county were holding his office in defiance of the whole State of Indiana. It was particularly to remedy the two evils above set out that the attorney general drafted his bill. If the counties have a prosecuting attorney which represents the Interests of that particular community In such cases, why should not the State of Indiana have Its, attorney likewise In power to protect the interests of the people. State and commonwealth. When It la considered that every corporation doing business In Indiana does It by reason of the privilege granted by the State of Indiana. It would seem that it Is a necessary consequence that the attorney for the State should have some power to see that the corporations, both foreign and domestic, complied substantially and reasonably with the laws of the State." Senator Hendee then took up the bill by sections, showing what the old law now Is and how It was sought to be amended and made the statement that "When the statutes were revised in 1S33 and again In 1SS1. no such thing as a foreign corporation doing business In Indiana existed and consequently the present law has not a single syllable relating to the control of foreign corporations doing business in Indiana. ' NECESSARY CONTROL. "The fifth section seeks to control In a reasonable manner foreign corporations doing business within the limits of the State

of Indiana and flnce the State Rives the foreign corporations power to operate in Indiana, certainly the state's attorney should be granted the power to enforce the rights of the State with reference to these foreign corporations. Corporations are organized in New Jersey and never build a plant In New Jersey but come over into Indiana and other States and build - their plants, hire their laborers here, and if you seek under the present law to have them

obey the laws of Indiana and bring suit to that end, they simply snap their lingers In your face and say. we are residents of tne state of New Jersey and you will nave to sue us in the federal courts or our native State or in the State courts of our native State. New Jersey charters corporations to do almost anvthinir excet)t to mur der and these corporations so chartered now have exercised over them no control whatever by the State of Indiana." The next section was discussed by the senator by stating that It simply related to the mode of procedure of bringing informations into the Supreme Court of the State of Indiana: conferred upon the Su preme Court of the State original Jurisdiction In the matters relating to informations filed by the attorney general. "Certainly, if the State of Indiana grams foreign or domestic corporations the right to do business in Indiana, then In suits pertaining to these foreign and domestic corporations their suit should be tried in the highest courts of the State of Indiana and the Information should be brought by the attorney for the State of Indiana." The senator said that the balance of the bill so duplicated the present law that it was not necessary to discuss those points. BILL CONSTITUTIONAL. The senator next took up the constitu tionality of the bill and showed that under Section four. Article seven of the constitu tion which states, that the Supreme Court shall have original jurisdiction in such matters as the General Assembly may designate, that so far as the constitutional ity of the bill is concerned there" should be no question about that. lie next showed that the bill creates no new causes for Information either by the prosecuting attorney or by the attorney general, and cited the Portland Gas Company case. In the 153d Indiana, and several other cases from the leading States of the Union on that subject. Speaking of the bill in ceneral. tne sena tor said that the great points of the bill were two: first, the conferring of original jurisdiction on the Supreme Court, which was in conformity with the law of the leading States of tho Union; second, that part of the bill giving the State of Indiana some power and control over foreign corporations. Continuing further he said, among the in controvertible reasons why the bill should pass, was the fact that there is now form ing a large combine situated in a foreign State, organized for the purpose of controling all the soft coal fields In the State of Indiana. "As the law now stands this coal combine can go on being organized under the laws of a foreign State and the State of Indiana must stand idly by and see the fuel which Is the life of its factories liter ally stolen away from it and the State is powerless under the existing law to save itself. The attorney general's hands are tied. The State is without power. "This bill is designed to get arter tne get-rlch-qulck companies, 'graveyard insurance companies, fake accident insurance companies, spurious fire and life Insurance companies. Since all these corporations are put Into existence by a charter from the State of Indiana, it would seem to be a necesary conclusion that the State of Indiana, by Its legal depart ment, should be empowered to purge itself of such robbing schemes and companies. This cannot be done unless this bill passes," STAND ON THE PLATFORM. In concluding the senator said: "I see by the papers that John D. Rockefeller has served notice on Congress that there must bo no anti-trust legislation. The same papers also announce that the lobby here In Indianapolis says that the State Legislature of Indiana must not pass the at torney general's bill. I do not know how you, my fellow-senators, feel about It, but I feel that I am here representing neither the corporations nor the newspapers, tut I am here representing the people of the State of Indiana, to pass and vote for such laws as I believe are for the best Interests of the State of Indiana. I believe that you will have less trouble to explain to your constituency why j'ou voted for this bill than to explain why you voted against it. I did not have any more sense in the last campaign tnan to go on the stump and advocate a law regulating the control of the large corporations, and I believed that I was standing on the piatfoTm of the Republican party, and since the Congress of the United States is now engaged in the laudable purpose of trying to regulate these things. It occurs to me that It Is common sense for the State of Indiana to pass reasonable laws on the same subject. So far as this bill is concerned I assume every responsibility In the Senate for lt. I Indorse every syllable of it. It Is my bill and I hope every senator will do his duty to the State and to the people by voting for it." He was followed by Senator Fortune, of Jeffersonvllle, Democratic floor leader, who placed himself on record ultimately as favoring the bill. Senator Fortune made the principal argument that while he favored many things which the bill provided, yet he was opposed to those provisions which required all complaints against corporations to be heard In the Supreme Court as a trial court. Such a procedure would tend to endless annoyance, not so much to corporations as to complainants, and would tend also, he said, to lessen the importance of Circuit Courts. There Is no question but that fair trials can be secured in Circuit Courts, the senator from Clark said, and he could not understand the wisdom of a bill which provides that the Supreme Court shall be the only court for the hearing of this class of litigation. MR. FORTUNE'S OBJECTIONS. Another serious objection raised by Senator Fortune from his point of view was that It deprived citizens of the right of a trial by jury and deprived him of the right of being heard In ti-e community in which he resides. The senator delivered a telling speech. Interrupted now and then by applause. He received the undivided attention of the senators. In brief he said: 'The two objectlonal features to the bill are: "First. It makes the Supreme Court of tho State a court of original Jurisdiction and thereby ousts the jurisdiction of every Circuit Court in the State in which quo warranto proceedings are instituted. 'Second, tho bill, as drafted, applies to Individuals as well as to corporations and trusts. "By the ordinance of 17S7 the Northwest Territory was ceded to the United States with the express condition that the citizens to reside in the territory werenot to be deprived of the right of trial by Jury. This principle was reiterated in the Constitution of the State of Indiana In 1M6, and at the time of its revision in 1S51, and has been handed down to English-speaking people from Magna Charta. It is contended by the friends of the bill that a Jury might be Impaneled In the Supreme Court of the State to try questions of fact, but as a matter of fact, every Supreme Court decision from the first Blackford up to the last decision rendered has held that the Supreme Court is a court of error. and that it will not pass upon questions of fact, but will review tho action presented to it "purely upon questions of law. "Sixty-first Indiana, in a well written and carefully considered case, decided that all quo warranto proceedings were triable by Jury, and tnis case nas never neen repeaieu It. therefore, follows that under the meas ure proposed .an action tried in the Su preme Court wouia arxiisn tne ngnt or tne litieant to a trial by Jury. "Another most serious objection to the bill would be depriving the citizens of the right of trial by a Jury of his peers In tha vicinage, which means taking -away from him the right to be tried In the lo cation where he resides. ir. tnis bill should become a law with the railroad consolidation bill, the two laws would prac tically put all litigants residing outside of the city of Indianapolis to the necessity of coming to the Federal or Supreme Court in the city of Indianapolis to try their rights, either upon questions of law or fact. BALL TAKES THE FLOOR. The Senate adjourned at noon, and when, at 2 o'clock, the body was again convened Senator Walter L. Ball, of Murtcle, was recognized by the chair. Senator Ball spoke for half an hour, launching shafts of In vective, denunciation and wit at the Hendee measure. His periods were all climaxes, but he succeeded In making a number cf telling points. To give the Supreme Court original juris diction In this or any other kind of case would be dangerous and subversive of the standing of the court, and contrary to tho Constitution and the will of the people, de clared Senator BalL Such an act by the Legislature could not help but degrade the

Supreme Court, he said, and would tend to remove the confidence of the people in the Supreme Court as the court of appeal.

The bill gives the attorney general too much power, he contended. He pointed to Attorney General Miller, sitting near by, and said: "In the hands of the present distinguished attorney general I have no fear but that the provisions of the bill. If made Into law, would be ably and honestly car ried out. for the attorney general is an honest man, but who knows of the future? Who knows or can guess witt absolute cer tainty what kind of men wi'l be attorney generals of Indiana In the future? To give a man the right to bring a corporation into court on the flimsiest kind of pretext will be to sow the seeds of corruption and In justice." Senator Ball declared that the bill, if en acted into law, would be a constant temptation to prosecuting attorneys to hale corporations into court by information to the attorney general for the fees that might be involved in the case. More than that, he said, it miirht tend to corrupt the honesty of young and struggling lawyers serving as prosecutors and anxious to make , all tne money possible. They might be tempted to blackmail or to deal dishonestly with corporations and the people who elected them. lie went into the bill at length, and made arguments on each section showing where. in his opinion, the bill was unwise and dan gerous. DAUSMAN' S POLISHED SPEECH. He was followed by Senator Dausman, who made a polished, scholarly address. The senator from Goshen spoke quietly and briefly, but he did good work In behalf of the bill. To the argument advanced by Senator Ball that the Supreme Court would be lowered by being made a court of orig inal jurisdiction Senator Dausman answered that every lawyer In the country recognized the Supreme Court of Massachusetts as the ablest tribunal In the United States. It Is a court of original Jurisdiction in these cases, said Senator Dausman. and its standard has not been vitiated. The bill was not unwise or unjust in any particular, he maintained, and should pass if the people are to be given the protection to which they are entitled against unjust and grasping corporations. Corporations that are organized and are operated within the law need have nothing to fear from this bill, he said: only those that know they are evil and detrimental to the good of the people. Senator Davis, of Greene, answered for the opposition, although Senator Davis, like Senator Fortune, voted for the bill when It came to the final test. He argued against the provision that gives the attorney general power to bring usurping public officers Into the Supreme Court for trial, and against the suspension In such cases of the right of citizens of trial by jury. The senator spoke briefly without indulging in loud invective. Senator Wood, of Lafayette, for the bill. and Senator Milburn, of Dubois, against, closed the debate. Each supplemented arguments made previously, although Sena tor MiiDurn urged earnestly that his amendment striking out the clause relating to usurping public officers should be adopted. The amendment was lost. The Democrats took the nositfon that thev would have voted for the Hendee measure had the Republicans consented to eliminate the section giving the attorney general the right to sue usurping officers in the Supreme Court. Their ultimate stand, how ever, inaicated that they would not have supported the bill en masse In any form. ' FIGHT 0. HEALTH DILL. Measure Providlne More Tlrnatlo Quarantine Law Passed by House. The fight on House bill No. 7 Boulden providing for the restriction of dangerous and communicable diseases, was the feature of yesterday afternoon's session of the House. The debate on the m en sii r a tl-h a prolonged over an hour and a half, and in the end it was passed by the very close vote of 52 to 36, when the indications were that it would be defeated, or at least that it would fail to pass. The bill provides a more drastic law for the establishment and enforcement of quar antines in cases of dancrerous and rnn. taglous diseases and fixes the punishment for the violation of the law at a fine of from $10 to 550, to which may be added Imprisonment in the county jail for a period not to exceed six months. As to what shall be held to be dangerous and communicable diseases the bill lists "smallpox, diphtheria, membraneous croup, scarlet fever, measles or any other communicable disease named In the rules of the State Board of Health." It was due to the fact that diphtheria. measles and croup were specifically mentioned in the bill that the opposition was manifested from several members. Mr. Bell, of Randolph, spoke first against the bill, saying that while he thought it was a good bill in many respects he was convinced that it Should he ATTlAtidpH en a a trt cut out at least the provisions concerning measies ana croup. Mr. Baird, of Delaware, who Is a physician and the chairman of the cnmmftt on health, supported the bill. He rgued that me existing quarantine laws in Indiana are ineffective, and said that the very recent trouble over the snread of the maiinnr epidemic in several parts of the State was ample evidence that a new bill, such as the one under consideration, should be enacted mio law. BOYD FOR THE INDIVIDUAL. Mr. Boyd, of Putnam, who Is a great stickler for Individual rights, opposed the bill, because, he asserted, it gave too much power to the health officer and did not respect personal privileges. He thought the present health laws were sufficient to enable the authorities to control any epidemic. 'If we were in the midst of a great crisis," he said, "If we were threatened with an invasion of the bubonic plague, or leprosy, then there would be some excuse for such a bill becoming a law, but there Is no necessity for it at present and I am opposed to the needless interference with the rights of the individual." Mr. Van Fleet, of Elkhart, also opposed the bill, and he spoke with some heat. He cited one section of the bill which he said would empower the health officer to'removo any child suffering from diphtheria, the croup or the measles to the pesthouse. "Such a law would be an outrage on the people of Indiana," he declared, "and this bill should never be rassed without amendments. I'm here to say right now that if this bill becomes a law and a child of mine is taken with diphtheria and the health officers come to my house to remove that child to the pesthouse, I'll meet them at the door with a shotgun, and If necessary I'll use it, too!" Dr. Kirkman, of Wayne, expressed his surprise at the objections raised by the gentlemen from Elkhart and Putnam. There was nothing in the bill, he said, that would permit of such construction as they ff.arr1 lie said that the bill rihl nnr snn. template the removal of children suffering a mi . . a . . m wan aipnineria, croup or ine measies 10 the pesthouse.

He said that he. was against the bill for two reasons; first, bernnso It was too broad in its srnna ami gave the health officers too much arbitrary a a . w a auinoriiy an power, anu. second, oeeause it provided that the county or city should Hour 11 the exnenses of atfpndanro nnl support of persons in quarantine" whether or not Bum ycisiuia inifcui. wo auie 10 pay sucn expenses. AMENDMENT IS TABLED. Mr. Bamberger, of Marion, spoke briefly in support of the bill and then offered motion to recommit with instructions to report an amendment cutting out the word measles wherever It occured in the bill. His motion Was promptly tabled, even those op posed to the bill voting against it. It was their evident intention to kill the whole bill or make no change In it. Mr. Boulden, of Clinton, the author of the bill, spoke at length In Its defense. He argued that the present quarantine law or whnllv trtfldenuate and ht rtoA Ir stances of the violations of such laws in this and other cities. A case to which he referred was one in which a woman who had nur5ea smaui'v auu wan tnor rMicKlf Infnrmpri of everv nsnert nf tho H rna nriK nn a crowded street rnr nn 1 v and 'detected the unmistakable odor that imna nit9 m r 1 1 ro I .

Mr Boulden asserted, there would be no more, smallpox patients running at large over our cities, spreading the dread dif easo omall sides. At the conclusion of Mr. Boulden'a tjpeech the roll'as called on the passage. of the bill. Al tn conclusion ox tne cru call

there were but fifty . ayes and at this critical point Mr. Mitchell, of Hamilton, changed his vote to aj-e and the bill was passed. Two others changed their votes, making the total when the result was announced D3 to 28. House bill No. 15S Mum me rt which proposes a law for municipal improvements as a substitute for the Barrett and Artman laws, which It repeals, was handed down on second reading at the opening of the session as a special order. Several minor amendments were offered and accepted by the author, but one that was offered by Mr. Bell was immediately withdrawn as soon as the member from Randolph learned its real Import. The amendment was prepared by an Indianapolis attorney at the instance of an Indianapolis contractor who Is largely interested in municipal inprovernents and It was handed Mr. Bell with the request that he introduce it at the right time. He was informed that the change proposed was unimportant and wholly technical. It developed, however, that if the amendment had been adopted the -bill would then shut out all remonstrances

against proposed Improvements. FOR MUNICIPAL IMPROVEMENT. The bill was advanced to engrossment without objection. The bill is an exceed ingly bulky document and members of the House who have not gone Into it thoroughly declare that it would take a Philadelphia lawyer to grasp its full meaning. Mr. Mummert, the author, has prepared the fol lowing summary of the provisions of the bill which shows all its important features: "House bill No. 1SS, for general municipal Improvements, is one of tho Important measures pending in the Legislature. It af fects all cities of the State under 3U,uw inhabitants. It repeals the Artman law passed at the last session and re-enacts parts of the old Barrett law. "It provides for all improvements, street and alley pavement, sewers, sidewalks, and that city councils and town boards may ny resolution of necessity order the Improve ments. "It provides manner to be heard by prop erty owners affected. "It provides for publication of time for those affected to be heard. "It provides that two-thirds of the prop erty owners residing on a street proposed to De improved and representing two-iniras of the lineal feet of abutting property remonstrating shall prevent the improve ment. "It provides for detailed plans and specifi cations, publication of notice, letting to lowest bidder, etc. "It enacts a definite law for sidewalk im provement, on which the statutes have been uncertain and have permitted building un der three constructions. "It protects cities from damage suits and provides the manner of assessment of benefits, including city and school property. "It dennes property to be assessed so as to include franchises of street-railway com panies. "It provides for appointment of apprais ers to assess benefits, for appeal, and that If the assessment of benefits amounts to $10 or over it may bo paid in ten annual installments, and specifies in detail the man ner of carrying into effect all Improvements, manner of remonstrances, appeal, etc. ine House adjourned a half hour earlier than usual In order that the Republican members might have time for their caucus before the dinner hour. BILLS PASSED BY SENATE. Work Accomplished Before Oratory Began to Flow. Even handicapped by the long debate on the Hendee bill, the Senate managed to transact considerable business from 10 o'clock to 11 o'clock yesterday morning. Senator Wood called up his garnishee bills on third reading, but before the sen ators had an opportunity to get Into any wrangle, the hour arrived for the discus sion of the Hendee measure and discussion of the garnishee bill was postponed until this morning. On Mr. Wood's measure there will be undoubtedly a warm fight. The Democrats have caucus&ed and have decided to oppose it. Several Democrats that were believed to favor the measure are bound by the caucus action and will vote against the bill. In addition a number of Republicans make no secret of the fact that they intend to say everything they can against the measure and to vote against it when the time comes. All in all. it looks very much like the measure advocated by the ltetail Grocers' Association and other organizations will have a stormy passage, even If it get into harbor at all. It will be brought up this morning the first thing. The Sunday baseball bill was not called up because there was no time to devote to Its discussion. It will certainly be brought up this morning or this afternoon. The Senate pässed seven bills. Senator Goodwlne's bill prohibiting the sending of homeless girls to the Industrial School for Girls when they have committed no offence was passed by a vote of 41 to 0. Senator Gochenour's bill amending the drainage laws was passed. Favorable action was taken on Senator Barlow's bill supplemental to the act providing for the construction and repair of lish ladders. Senator Newhouse's bill increasing the pay of two assistant State librarians to $100 a year went through with only two votes against it. Two bills by Senator Wood, amending the acts regulating the descent of personal property and real estate, were passed. Senator Layman's bill to reimburse the Twenty-seventh Indiana Regimental Association for money expended in placing tablets on the spot where the regiment was engaged at Gettysburg was passed. Senator Goodwlne's bill to separate the Indiana Industrial School for Girls and the Woman's Prison was called up. but on motion of Senator Davis, who wanted time to prepare an amendment, it was made the special order of business for Friday morning at 11 o'clock. Senator Matson's voting machine bill was made the special order for this afternoon At 2 o'cloclc House bills No. 10, No. 112, No. 177, No. 178, No. 250 and No. 258 were received and referred to the proper committees. Senate bills No. 101, No.-158, No. 163, No. 225, No. 22G, No. 227 and No. 228 were Bent to the House. 9 BUSINESS OF TUG IIOtSE. Action on BUI A fleet ins Clerks and Sheriffs Hunting: of Quail. The sheriffs and county clerks of the Stato who have been lobbying actively for the bill which provides that In cases where they do not collect sufficient fees to equal the amounts of their salaries they shall be paid the difference between the amounts collected and their salaries out of the general fund of the county had the satisfaction of seeing their bill advanced to third reading in the House yesterday forenoon. However, their Joy was tempered with a little fear, for there was a hard fight made on the bill, and it was apparent that It cannot be passed without another fight, which may result in its death. The vot on the contested points yesterday was not especially close, as the bill had fifty-eight votes for it at one time and sixty at another, but the hostility of certain influential members was such as to Justify fears for the bill's future.Mr. Sayre, of Wabash, offered the first amendment to the amendment recommended by tho committee. The committee's recommendation was that a provision should be incorporated to the effect that the county commissioners should not reimburse the officers for their, uncollected fees until the officers showed that they had made an effort to collect the fees and that they were uncollectible. Mr. 8ayre's amendment pro vided for the striking out of four lines which, he declared, made the bill ambiguous. The lines In question provided that the officers should be paid in full out of the county treasury the amount of all uncollected fees. Further on in the bill there was another proviso to the effect that the officers should not receive a greater amount than the salary provided by law. Mr. Sayre insisted that the lines he sought to strike out were unessential to the effect of tho bill, and that a case might arise in which a sheriff or clerk would seek to recover the full amount of all uncollected fees, no matter whether the total amount received by him exceeded the amount of his fixed salary. Mr. Bamberger and Mr. Stansbury spoke against Mr. Sayre's amendment, and then Mr. Kimball moved that the amendment be tabled. The motion prevailed on an aye and no vote of li to 30. Mr. Branch then offered a motion to recommit with Instructions to report an amendment cutting out all reference to county clerks in the bill and make it apply only to sheriffs. This motion iru tabled. but the opponents of the bill bobbed up with, another. Mr. 0 too key moved to

amend the measure by striking out the

retroactive claus and make the bill take effect Jan. 1. l'J03. In its present form the bill will reimburse former sherifls and clerks back until Jan. 1, 1&U0. Mr. Siookey's amendment was tabled by a vote of CO to 24, in the face of the argument that its adop tion would save the taxpayers of the State over $300.000, und the committee amendment was taen concurred in and the bill ad vanced to engrossment. MORE PROLONGED FIGHT. The House had a second and even more prolonged fight during the forenoon over Mr. Lopp's bill prohibiting the hunting of quail for a period of three years from and after the taking effect of the law. The bill came up on third reading, and it was finally passed by the close vote of 53 to 3S after the floodgates of oratory had been opened for an hour for the edification of the gal leries and the amusement of the members themselves. Mr. Morgan, of Marlon, made the open ing speech against the bill. He seemed to feel that his attitude on the measure might be misconstrued, and he prefaced his speech with the declaration: "I do not come here to oppose this bill as a city dude or anything of that sort. It is always expected that opposition to a bill of this kind comes from city fellows who want to get out with a gun and dos and hunt all over the coun try whenever it suits them. I am opposed to the bill because 1 think a man ought to have the right to hunt on his own farm whenever he wants to." Mr. Boyd, of Putnam, supported the measure. "I am in favor of this bill," he said, "because I am opposed to the killing or quail, the beautiful, little brown Diras, at any time and under any circumstances. Why should a man ruthlessly slay the Innocent little friends of the farmer? He does not need them for food. He cannot plead self-defense. The desire to hunt Is a residual instinct that remains in us from the days of primitive man. when man se cured his food and clothing as the trophies of the chase. Why should the man of today cultivate and foster these brutal instincts that the race In civilized communities should have forgotten a century ago? lou have no right to kill any animal unless you need it for food, -or unless your own life is imperiled and you kill In selfdefense. "I cannot understand why any man should want to kill such an innocent, such a beautiful and such a useful little bird as the quail.- I should like to see the bill changed to that it would prohibit the hunt ing of these birds for all time to come, but it should be passed as it is by all means." Mr. lioyd s speech was liberally punctu ated with applause and he had evidently struck a popular chord. FARMER INTERESTS. Yesterday was Mr. Adair's day to repre sent the farmer interests of Jay county, or at least he so declared in opening his speech in opposition to the bill. A few days since Mr. Adair spoke for the commercial interests of his county, but he apparently believes in giving every Interest its day. Mr. Adair declared that he was not blood thirsty, that he was not a hunter and that he couldn't hit a flock of barns with a double-barreled shotgun, but he was opposed to the bill because his farmer con stituents did not want any change in the present law. Mr. Robertson, on the other hand, said that the farmers of his county wanted the bill passed and that he would support it. Mr. üaird. who said that he was from the rural districts and that he believed that fact was patent to everybody, favored the bill. He made an effective plea for the quail and closed with a sort of "Woodman. spare that tree peroration, in which he said: "The little brown bird has been a great friend of mine since early boyhood, and I want to do all I can for him now. Let's eat chickens for the next three yearsand give the little brown fellow a chance." Mr. Stookey opposed the bilL although he said he would favor the reducing of the open season, and he offered a motion to re commit with the purpose of securing such an amendment, which would require vir tually a new bill, but his motion was tabled and the bill was placed on Its pas sage. .During the roll call Mr. Sayre took occa sion to explain his vote by saying that he had not formed a very decided opinion about the bill. "I'm not a sportsman," he said, "and I haven't a very exalted opinion of any one who Is, but for once I desire to get in line with the gentleman from Johnson, and If he will Indicate how he would like to have me vot on the bill. I'll vote that way." "Vote aye!" shouted Slack across the hall, and the member from Wabash voted for the bill. Nearly every member took occasion to explain his vote'. At the close of the roll call, when it was thought that the bill had passed, Morgan and Stookey changed their votes from no to aye. It Is probable that they contemplate making an effort to re consider the vote some time to-day. just Derore adjournment for noon Mr. Sayre offered a motion to reconsider the vote by which House bill No. 10, Increasing tne state scnooi tax levy from 11 to 16 cents, was passed on Monday. The motion was entered of record and action on it will be taken later. Under the rules a motion to reconsider any action must be made on the same day or the day following that the action was taken. GEORGE ROGERS CLARK STATUE. Republican 3Iembers of the Ilome Hold a Caucus on the Bill. The Republican members of the House held a caucus last evening to discuss the Senate bill appropriating $5,000 for a statue of George Rogers Clark, to be placed in Statuary Hall at the Capitol at Wash ington. It developed during the caucus that many of the members were not pleased with the bill and although final action was not taken on the question, the Senate bill in all probability will not be made a caucus measure in the House In Its present form. It Is possible that the House majority may decide to let the bill nie in committee and leave the question to be determined by tho next Legislature. Such a course was suggested as a compromise. Several of the Republicans present at the caucus expressed the sentiment that the Republican senators should not have made the George Rogers Clark bill a caucus measure without first holding a conference with the House majority. Others said that they were in favor of substituting the name of Gen. Benjamin Harrison for that of Clark, and by others the name of the late Col. Richard W. Thompson, of Terre Haute, was mentioned. The question was discussed at length, and it was finally decided that another caucus should be held before definite action Is taken. An amusing feature of the conference was that several of the members exhibited a lamentable ignorance of who George Rogers Clark was. One member alluded to him as "John Rogers Clark," another as "Charles Clark Rogers," while one frankly owned his lack of historical knowledge by asking: "Who was this George Rogers Clark, anyway, and what did he do?" Before adjournment the bill Introduced by Representative Stansbury, providing for a Stato commission to purchase or contract for supplies for all the schools of the State. rwas discussed and it was decided to make the bill a caucus measure. As has been heretofore pointed out the friends of the bill believe that its enactment will result In a saving to the taxpayers of the State of at least $1,000,000 annually. CITV CHARTER AM EX D M EXT. Bamberger Bill Baffle Pay of Indianapolis Firemen and Policemen. Representative Bamberger, of the Marion county delegation, will introduce a bill today providing for an amendment to the charter of the city of Indianapolis so that the City Council will be empowered to Increase the salaries of members of the police and fire departments. Tne bill was prepared at the instance of a committee representing the city fire department, composed of Capt. S. W. Pugh, Capt. Bert Swiggert and Morris Healey. The firemen say that the bill will have the support of every member of the Marion county delegation and that it Is indorsed by Mayor Bookwalter and the city administration. Section 03 of the city charter provides that the annual pay of officers, members and employes of the fire and police force shall be fixed by ordinance of the Common Council, and that It shall be lawful in such ordinance to grade the members of such forces and to regulate their pay, not only by rank, but by their length of service. From this section of the charter it is claimed that it was intended that the Council should have the right to arrange for graded pay TIICrtK IS OXLY OJTE LAXATIVE BROMO-QUINIKE.

of the policemen and firemen according to length of service. However, Section 23 of the charter, defining the powers and duties of the Common Council, provides that no salary shall be changed after the election or appointment of a person to office until his term expires or his office is vacated. The proposed amendment adds a clause excepting from this provision officers and members of the police and fire departments, and provides that their pay may be graded according to length of service by ordinance of Council as was originally intended by the charter. will sot rtnsic it.

Attorney General Miller's Attitude on the Hendee Measure. "When the attorney general asks the Legislature for a law which he believes to be demanded by the best interests of the State and which is essential to him in order that he may carry out the duties of the office to which the people of the State have elected him. and when, after devoting all his time and energy to securing the passage of such a bill, the Legislature which is supposed to be directly representative of the people, flatly refuses his request, what is there for the attorney general to do? I feel that I have done my whole duty in this matter, and so far as I am concerned no further time will be wasted on the bill. I have official business that will demand all my time, but if I had ample leisure I should not have the slightest inclination to pursue the matter after the action of the Senate." Such was Attorney General Miller's answer, last evening, to the question whether his bill, which was defeated in the Senate yesterday afternoon, would be Introduced in the House, or in either branch of the Legislature, in a slightly modified form, and another effort made to secure its enactment. Mr. Miller did not attempt to conceal his displeasure at the attitude of the Senate toward his bill, but he declined to discuss the matter beyond making the brief statement quoted. Mr. Wells Gl res a Dinner. Representative Wells, of Fort Wayne, one of the prominent members on the minority side of the House, gave a dinner at the Grand last evening to a number of his colleagues and some of the representatives of organized labor who are keeping in touch with legislative . affairs. Hie guests were Representatives Scifers, McDowell and Jackley and Senator Fortune, William Blythe, secretary of the eleventh division of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers: F. B. Alley, legislative representative of the engineers; John T. Williams and George Dively, representatives of the Brotherhood of Railroad Trainmen, and W. S. Friesner, representative of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Firemen. E. A. Perkins, president of the State Federation of Labor, was to have been one of the guests, but he was called from the city and was unable to be present. Salaries of Superintendents. The caucus of the Republican members of the House last evening was prolonged until such a late hour that none of the House committees met, and consequently few bills will be reported to-day. The committee on benevolent and scientific institutions, however, managed to hold a short, informal session and decided to report favorably on the bill, offered by Representative Cravens, providing that the Governor and boards of control of the several hospitals for the insane may fix the salaries of the superintendents of those institutions. Speech by Tarklngton. Representative Booth Tarklngton, of this city, is credited with having made a speech in the Republican caucus last evening in which he declared that he was in favor of providing a statue for George Rogers Clarke because Clarke has been dead longer than any of the other men whose names have been mentioned in connection with 'the honor. Oil Men Are Aroused. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. MARION, Ind., Feb. 10.At a meeting of the Indiana Oil Men's Exchange, composed of the operators of the Grant county field, a committee was named to go to Indianapolis to Join other oil operators of the Statp In an effort to defeat the bill introduced by Representative Stultz. of Huntington county, which provides for a commission to assess benefits to oil operators from drains in the vicinity in which they are operating. The committee named by the Grant county operators will meet committees from other oil fields at Indianapolis Thursday morning at 10 o'clock. The plan of procedure will then be outlined. It is said that if the Stultz bill becomes a law it will absolutely shut down the oil wells of the State until the assessments provided by the commission can be ascertained. This will require anywhere from sixty days to six months, and would mean a loss to the farmers, or royalty holders, of about $3,500 a day throughout the State. Opposed to Knott and Bill. Special to th Indianapolis Journal. HAMMOND, Ind., Feb. 10. Mayor Knotts and Senate Bill 220 are being denounced on all sides by the people of Hammond. The Trades and Labor Council, representing 7,000 union men, have passed redhot resolutions condemning the scheme to revolutionize municipal governments in cities under 35,000. The bill is characterized as unjust and vicious. Knotts has always posed as the friend of unionism, and the local unions have sent a cry all over the State calling for help from their brethren. The local Board of Trade and Commercial Club Merchants League also denounce the bill as one which would make a despotic czar of Mayor Knotts. A powerful lobby is being organized to fight the bill.
