Resolution Adopted by L-al Committee Indorsing the Opinion of Three Former Jndgrt.

- CENTRAL LABOR UNION ACTS

FORMATION OF THE i S ( ONSl.MERS' LEAOIE INDORSED. Committee Appointed at a Former Meeting Submits Its Report to the Central Body. The legal committee f the Gas Consumers' League, consisting of fifteen of the leading lawyers of the city, met at the Commercial Club rooms yesterday, and, after a full discussion of the law involved In the controversy, unanimously passed the following resolution: "Whereas, Having carefully considered and discussed the law governing the Consumers' Gas Trust Company of the city of Indianapolis, and the rights and duties of said company and its officers, and having rend and folly considered the opinion rendered by ex-Judges Elliott, Howe and Walker, we do hereby Indorse and fully approve the said opinion, believing that such opinion states the law of the case." Ex-Judge Lawson M. Harvey was elected chairman of the committee and Merrill Moores secretary. The committee then entered into a discussion of legal remedies proposed by various members and appointed subcommittees to report at a later meeting to be held during the week. There was a full meeting of the executive committee of the Gas Consumers' League hi Id in another room of the Commercial Club at 1 p. in. yesterda. resulting in the election of Alfred F. Fotts as chairman and Col. C. E. Merrifleld as secretary. The general situation was discussed and the secretary Instructed to advise the board of directors or the Consumers' Gas Trust Company that the Gas Consumers' League was now fully organized, and offered its services to the majority of the board of directors of the Consumers' Gas Trust Company to give them every aid in holding said company for the public service by the manufacture and distribution of gas in accordance with the terms of the articles of association of said company. A subcommittee was appointed to submit definite plans for future action along the several lines proposed. The finance committee is to meet to-day at 1 o'clock at the Commercial Club rooms. The letter of Herman Lieber, declining the presidency of the league, has been made public. It Is as follows: "Gentlemen I understand my name has been mentioned as president of the Gas C onsumers' League, and wish to say If I were not In ray advanced year.; 1 would accept and regard the place at a great honor. I think, houever, that men who are in the prime of life are needed to fill the offices successfully. "It seems strange to me that we should be forced to protect ournelves against the evil inliuences which have crept into the active management of th-e Consumers' Gas Trust. And yet such is the case. In the first place, the object of our league must be to see that the title f the Consumers' Gas Trust is firmly established iu the irame of the people. "The steps which will follow are simple enough, and your committee is so constituted that you can give the reconstructed board of directors business-like advice. "We all learn by experience, and certainly ought to know by this time that a public institution like the Consumers' Gas Trust roust be carried on under the same control, under the same restrictions, as a wide-awake bank or any similar private institution of the same magnitude. Now. gentlemen, your cry is, 'Save the Trust.' BtllCTi me that i am fully with you. You can depend on my moral support aa well as my nnancial aid." CENTRAL. LABOR RESOLUTIONS. The Organisation of the Consumers' Uns Leagae Is Indorsed. The committee, appointed by the Central Labor Union several weeks ago to act upon the question of the Consumers' Gas Trust Company, reported last night at the meeting of the organisation. The committee includes E. P. Barry, J. F. White. M. F. Butler and E. J. Collins. The following resolutions were offered und adopted: "It has always been the recognized policy of the Central Labor Union to propose and support measures and movements for the common weifate. and in harmony with this policy we now pledge our united and best efforts to the movement now being organized In this city 'o save the Consumers' Gas Tr-ist. to '.he end that this company will b; enabled to fulnil the purpose of its origin, to supply gas to the people at the lowest possible cost. "In this connection this body desires to add its voice to the emphatic and wellmerited rebuke which all classes of citizens are now administering to the promoters of the Eureka Investment Company, which concern, it seems, is to oe used as the instrument to wreck the Trust Company, if j-uch result is possible. That men who have been, and are still, acting as directors In the Gas Trust Company should be guilty of using Thnr ability and business energy in efforts to divert most sacred trust from its avowed purpose; that instead of endeavoring to overcome difficulties they have so acted as to seriously jeopardize the future life of a beneficent institution, is to our mind reprehensible in the highest degree, and deserves the unqualified censure .of all honest men. We believe that men should be Judftd largely by their acts and the failure of these men to carry out the plain provisions of t trust will justify the widespread suspicion that they ought not to be trusted in other affairs In our everyday life. The Central Lab..- Union also desires to record Its warm commendation of the acts of the majority members of the present organized board of directors, who. under the leadership of Mujot W. J. Richards, are now courageously and intelligent lv llghting for the life and future usefulness of the Trust Company, and we herebv extend to them whatever aid it is possible for us to g:ve In this contest. "For the purpose of aiding in the crystallization of public opinion and in the practical w,.rk incident to the campaign to prevent the wrecking ( f the Consumers' Gas Trust, we hereby Indorse the organization of the Consumers' Gas League and earnestly urge upon the members of all affiliated unions to become members of this league, which involves no financial obligation, and thereby give active and substantial support to the movement.''

A dozen years or so ago John Farson, of Chicago, who was one of the speakers at the Meridian-street M. E. Church last night, was endowed with little or nothing In the way of worldly goods, but he possessed a magnificent nerve, a good education, a clear head, the money-making instinct and an abundance of "get up and git," both mental and physical. To-day he is rated as one of Chicago's millionaires and is at the head of the big bond brokerage and banking firm of Farson, Leach A Co., which has branches in New York, Philadelphia and Boston and does a business that extends all over the country. Mr. Farson had just one other natural advantage which is not given to every man he was born in Indiana. He selected Union City for his birthplace some forty-eight years ago, getting barely inside" the State line, but his feet first touched Hoosier soil and he started rixht with the world. "Newspaper men have got me into all kinds of trouble,'' said Mr. Farson last night at the Claypool, a few minutes before he left for his train, "but they have never ill treated me and I bear them no ill wHl," he added, with a smile. "As an instance of the liberties they have taken with me and the trouble that has piled up on me as a result, a few months ago I casually remarked that a model servant girl would be worth her weight in gold, or, I believe, a million dollars was the valuation I placed on such a rarity. A Chicago newspaper man immediately wrote a story, setting out that I had said I would give $1,000,000 for a model servant girl. The story must have been widely copied, for since that time I have received not less than 20,000 letters from all parts of this country and from all the countries ?a the world Germany, France, Russia. England. Australia, India, Chin.t, Japan, New Zealand, and I know not what others from girls and women who applied for the prize. One that I recall wrote that she was sure she was just the woman I wanted for she had had thirteen years' experience in an insane asylum. XXX "Aain, the story got started In some way that I would give $1,000,000 to a deserving educational institution, and as a result I am receiving an average of 100 letters a day now on that subject. Howjver. the humorous side of these hoaxes appeals as much to me as to anyone, and I have enjoyed them, although I am sorry to think that so many people have been duped by them." In personal appearance Mr. Farson is a BURGLARS ARE ABROAD CIGAR STORE 13 STEVEK803 BUILDING PREY FOR THIEVES. Valuable Property Stolen from Rest deuces Superintendent K rimer Opposed to Publicity. Between 3 o'clock yesterday afternoon and 8 o'clock last night burglars broke open the door of the storeroom of the Stevenson building cigar stand and stole twenty boxes of line cigars and a quantity of tobacco. The act was a most daring one, as the halls of the building are always filled with people during those hours and the door was torn from its hinges without regard for noise or appearances. The police were notified as soon as the discovery was made, but they were unable to locate the thieves. The residence of Ira Chapman, 3537 North Meridian street, was broken into on Sunday afternoon and about $4J0 worth of jewelry stolen. Tho residence of Judge Vinson Carter was entered by house breakers on Sunday afternoon and they secured about $75 in money and 1300 worth of silverware. Under the present administration red tape U the whole thing at the police station and the greatest care is being taken that all robberies and burglaries be kept from the public. Every patrolman on the force has been instructed that to tell of a I theft to a reporter would probably mean expulsion from the service. At the pres ent time the ctty is iniestea wun ourglon nod thieves. An order was issued on Sunday to the effect that no reporters were to be allowed to ride on the patrol wagon. The order in itself is of little significance until it is known that much of the news heretofore got by the reporters was obtained thtough riding to the scene of action on the patrol wagon, win re the Information was obtainable first hand. The order that the patrol is no longer to be used tor that purpose, in addition to an order that the destination of the wagon when it leaves the police station is not to be to'd. will keep muh news of robberies and thefts from the papers. History of Lynchrhuuu Case. The committee of Irish citizens, who propose to print the full history of the Lynchhaun case, has asked Assistant United States District Attorney La Follette, who conducted the prosecution of James Lynchehaun in his tiial before United States Commissioner Moores, in conjunction with James Fox, of New York, to pret.nt the British side of the hearing for the book. The committee proposes to send these books or pamphlets to all the Irish societies in the country so that Irishmen may become acquainted with all the proceedings. Both sides of the controversy will be s I out in the report and, if possible. Mr. La Follette's speech at the trial will be published In full. The speech was delive.ed extemporaneously and Mr. La Follette said he did not know whether he could comply with the request of the committee or not. At present he is very busy with the work of the Inderal grand Jury. Guldie Graham Keleuaed. Goldie Graham, the young woman arrested Saturday night and charged with malicious trespass, pleaded guilty in Police Court yesterday and as a result of the evidence brought out in the trial she was released on the promise of her parents to ; v fot the tour window lights and the door which she had broken. Mrs. Goldie Graham has been married but a few months, and it seems that her father-in-law succeeded In Inducing her young husband to leave her and that caused ail the trouble Saturday night.

little below the average height, slight of form, but compactly built, with every evidence of a good physique and an abundance of nervous energy. He is smooth shaven, his features are clear-cut and regular, and the lines about his mouth and eyes bespeak the humorous, kindly bent in his nature. With his hat on Mr. Farson would be taken for a mau of from thirty to forty years, and even with his hat off, revealing a bald spot on the top of his head, he does not look the forty-eight years to which he confesses. XXX Aside from furnishing material for mll-

llon-dollar model servant stories Mr. Farson finds his chief diversion in automobiliug. He is a motorphobe of a pronounced type, owns half a dozen machines, including an $8,000 touring car; is president of the Chicago Automobile Club, and enters into the sport with unbounded enthusiasm. A few weeks ago he made a run from Chicago down to Champaign to attend the IllinoisChicago football game. "We have 300 members of the Chicago Automobile Club now," he said, "and I expect confidently to see that number increased to 1,000 within a year or two." Automobile Topics of New York, in speaking of Mr. Farson as president of the Chicago club, says: "His first official utterance after being elected strikes a note which the worst motorphobe in the Western city cannot but echo with approval. For a city which boasts of the finest boulevard system in the world Chicago has certainly a great deal to be ashamed of In the way of wretched streets. Cleaning the Augean stables was child's play as compared with the job of tidying up the thoroughfares of the Windy City. Promises of reform in this direction have figured in every political platform since the Indians carried the town out of Fort Dearborn, and if John 1 arson can make any appreciable headway toward such a result he need have no fears about ever being side-tracked as Vice President of the United States." XXX Speaking of serious affairs, Mr. Farson expressed the opinion that the general financial situation is much improved. "We are getting away from the panicky condition of a few weeks ago. when everybody was holding his breath and expecting the bottom to fall out of everything at any moment." he said. "Money is easier, and the return of confidence in the market is very apparent. The market reports to-day showed all stocks, with a possible exception, steady and in good shape. There is plenty of money In the country, the banks are full of it. and with the return of confidence it is bound to come out more freely and at lower rates. Of course, the tendency will be toward the conservative all along tho lim until after the next election, but I do not believe we shall have a recurrence of the conditions of a few weeks since." HOLY CROSS CHURCH FAIR IT OPENS AT MASONIC HALL VERY - AISP1CIOISLY. Thing" Good to I '.at nnd Many Necessaries on Sale in the Booths Severn! Contests Arranged. The fair which is being given by the Holy Cross Church under the direction of ita pastor, Ihe Rev. Jpjnes A. Wade, at Masonic Hall, opened last night with a fine attendance. The local merchants have been generous in their giving, and many wholesale and retail firms from all over the country have contributed articles of value to the few people who are trying to defray the expenses incurred in putting In the new heating and lighting plant at the corner of Oiieutal and Ohio streets, which will light and heat the church, school and several other buildings connected with the institution. The officers of the fair are: James A. Wade, president; Robert W. Waiden, vice president; John J. Flaherty, secretary, and Jeremiah A. Egan, treasurer. A regular home-cooked dinner will be served each day from 11 until 2 o'clock, and the ladies in charge declare that each patron will get his money's worth before leaving. Thanksgiving day a special turkey dinner will be served, but the cost will be the same 15 cents. Thursday afternoon a card party will be given, and all are Invited to attend, with the assurance from the young ladies who will have charge of it that they will have a fine time. In the evening a band concert will be given, and also a dnnce, which is expected to interest many outside of the church who will not 1. able to attend the theaters. One of the novel features of the fair is the country store, which is in charge of the following ladies: Miss Catherine Sullivan, president, Miss Gorman, Miss Nettle Lander Miss Marguerite Landers, Miss Mollie .Murray, Miss Anna Wise, Miss Myrtle Jacobs and Miss Anna Sweeney. There may be found anything desirable, especially furniture and stoves, and, unlike other country stores which have been seen in this city, everything is new. Next to the country store is the pillow and doll booth, which is in charge of the Children of Mary. Each one of the girls beiunging to that society ha made a pillow tor the fair, and many very beautiful ones are on sale. This booth is iu charge of Misses Angela Culllty. Bertha Farrell, Nellie Fitzgerald, Anna Murphy. Stella Henninkamp. Mary Senefield. Julia Foley and Margaret Flanagan. The candy booth is also in charge of the Children of Mary, and many toothsome articles are offered there for sale. Passing along, the next booth is run by the Youug Men s institute. und there kinds oi" soft drinks, and cigars are offered for sale. J. A. Lgun is in charge, and he is assisted by Herman Kirkoff, Loo Connaughton, Miss Mollle Murry and Miss Mamie Gorman. The Ladies' Social Club has secured a large space and served ice cream and home-made cake. This is '.n charge of Mrs. J. P. Bene, field, Mrs. D. L. Powell. Mrs. E. E. Eich and Mis. James Powers.

The wheel of fortune, which decides the winner of many valuable articles, is In charge of Mr. E. Eich and Mr. John Richoff. This booth proved to be the Osnter of attraction, and was the best n.oney-maker in the hall. Last, but not least, is tiie gypsy tent, in charge of Miss L Gr anon and Miss Corcoran. It is possible to have one's fortune told a dozen times a day, and each time hear new things. A mm very interesting contests have been arranged. Including the contest for the most popular young lady in the church, for which a ICS coat Is offered to the winner, the most popular altar society in the city, the nttot for the winner being two large vases valued at $15, and the contest for the most popular child under five years, to which a very beautiful doll will be given.

He Points Out thnt the Complaints Against Indianapolis Factories Are Unfounded.

AN INTERNATIONAL ORGANIZER RUDOLF SCHIRRA. OF THE BAKERS" I N ION , MAKES A SPEECH. Present Stntus of Trouble nt the Indinnnpolis Foundry Company's Plant Local Lnlior News. A report was read last night at the meeting of the Central Labor Union in Pierson s Hall from Factory Inspector McAbee, stating that a thorough investigation had been made of the factorits in the city in which, it was charged, the child labor laws had been violated by the employers hiring children under the age limit. In his report Mr. McAbee said that it had been found that children under the age of fourteen were not employed in the factories mentioned in the complaints and where it was found thai, young children were employed they were always working with their mothers in the factories. The two factories where it was charged young children were employed were the Van Camp Packing Company and the Malleable iron works. The matter of child labor was discussed at length by the members of the Central Iabor Union, the general opinion prevailing that under no condition should children below the ages of fourteen be employed in the factories. LENGTHY SESSION. The meeting of the Central Labor Union was unusually long, although nothing of great importance came before the body. The grievance committee reported in regard to the trouble at the Indianapolis polo rinks, advising that the rinks should not be placed on the unfair list at the present time. Although C. C. Buck, Contractor of the rink work, has agreed that all his men shall join the carpenters' union, and they have made the first payment on their fifteen-dollar initiation fees, there is a suspicion among the carpenters that now that the work is completed, their first payments will be forfeited and the men will back out of the union. For this reason action on the rinks will not be taken until the remaining payments fall due. The men employed by Mr. Buck formerly belonged to Conrad, Bender's unioa, an organization formed to compete with the organized carpenters of the city. The arbitration committee handed in a report in the right that has been going on between the National Association of Steamfitters and the United Association of Plumbers. The report favored the former, and recommended that their delegates be refused seats in the Central Labor Union. The trouble dates from the strike of the steamfltters last June, during which it was charged and found to be true that the members of the Plumbers' Union took the places of the steam litters, working at less than the union scale and more than union hours. INTERNATIONAL ORGANIZER. Rudolf Schlrra, general organizer of the Bakery and Confectionery Workers' Inn rnational Union of America, was present. and spoke at length on the union label. The organiser is from Cleveland, O., and is in the city to organize more solidly the local union of tkl organization which he represents. He will be in Indianapolis until Christmas. His visit is due to the lack of Interest that is being manifested by the members of the local union. Fred Randall, of Denver, Col., an organizer of the Western Federation of Miners, who are now on strike in Colorado, was also present and spoke on unionism. He said In the course of his remarks that it had been claimed that the recent accident in the Vindicator shaft at Cripple Creek was due to the miners, as a piece of a revolver used to discharge the dynamite had been found in the bottom of the mine. Mr. Randall claimed that he was well acquainted with the mine; that there is three hundred feet of water in the bottom of the mine and that it would have been impossible for the operators to find a revolver, as was stated. He said he believed the explosion was entirely accidental, caused by the friction of the elevator iu the shaft, which drops 600 feet in less than a minute. A resolution was adopted by the central body to the effect that all merchants employing fake labels be declared as not running union houses. There has been more or less complaint among union people of the city of the labels some merchants use. At certain stores, when the purchasers ask for the union label, the merchants say that they can get them the label in a few minutes and then go out and secure counterfeit labels. m SUIT MAY BE BROUGHT. Indianapolis Foundry Company Will Probably Seek Injunetion. Officials of the Indianapolis Foundry Company are expected to file a suit for an Injunction and permanent restraining order to-day against the local unions of the Iron Molders' Union, which have declared a strike against their shop and keep pickets continually about the plant. The injunction will cite that the men now employed by the company have been hindered, threatened and intimidated by members of the striking unions, and as a precaution, they have had to fit up quarters where their employes can eat and sleep; that it has becoaae dangerous for their men to go to and from work; that the company's property Is in peril at the hands of the strikers and that the injunction is necessary for the company to continue in business. About one hundred and forty iron molders are on strike at the Indianapolis Foundry Company, having walked out a month ago because of the refusal of the company to grant their demands for union shop. D. I. Dissette. one of the officers of the company, said that they absolutely refuse to discharge tic ir nonunion men and hire only union men. "Our men can do as they please," he said. "If they join the union that is their affair, and If they do not, that also is their business. We refuse to make any discrimination." STRIKE IS SETTLED. A Labor Difficulty nt Terre Hante Fiunlly Adjusted. Labor Commissioner McCormick returned yesterday from Terre Haute, where he spent several days trying to settle the strike at the American Car and Foundry Company's plant. The trouble was adjusted yesterday morning. One hundred and five men struck several days ago because the company refused to reinstate twelve men that had been discharged for alleged insubordination. With Mr. McCormick at Terre Haute was D. C. Hogan, organizer for the Interstate Association of Car Workers. Both worked hard until the difficulty was adjusted. The strikers returned to work on the agreement of the company to reinstate four of the twelve men discharged. This company is a branch establishment of a large corporation. Another branch is situated at Jeffertonville and had a strike on its hands a few weeks ago. LONDON LABOR LEADER. Hon. James O'Cirndy Will Deliver Address Here on Dec. 7. Active preparations will be made by labor leaders of the city- for a large mass meetlug to be held in Masonic Hall on the night of Dec. 7. The occasion will be an address by Hon. James O'Grady, of London, international delegate to the American Federation of Labor, which has Just euded. There

Christinn Ministers Deride It Hns n Place Methodists and Canteen. At the regular meeting of the Christian ministers of the city held yesterday the ;.estion of how far politics should enter into preaching was discussed at some iength. All the ministers, without exception, agreed that politics might be referred to in their sermons. The occasion of the discussion was a paper upon the subject read at the meeting by the Rev. Frank W. Norton, of the ifvington Christian Church. Mr. Norton thought that since Christianity entered into all the other relations of life it might also tnter into politics. He said that if religion was not to be encouraged and manifested in political affairs, in which of the activities of hie should it be manifested?

Against Repeal of Canteen Law. The committee composed of the Revs. Stansfleld, Goodwin and Hyde yesterday reported at the meeting of the Methodist Ministers' Association on the proposition to repeal the law which prohibits the sale of Intoxicants In army canteens. The report contained the following resolution, which was unanimously adopted: "Resolved. That, as representing the entire body of Methodist preachers in Indianapolis and vicinity, and as we believe the entire bodv of Methodist preachers in Indiana, and the more than 200.00Ü Methodists of the State, we most earnestly protest against such a repeal. We believe the canteen, as we now have it. has not had a fair trial in point of time, and from the avowed opposition of certain military officers and others, they seem determined to Ignore or break the fully expressed wish of the people through Congress as to sobriety In the army." The principal question tmder discussion at the meeting was "Shall the Time Limit as to Pastorates be Restored to One Year?" The matter was discussed at some length, but no definite steps were taken. COOPER'S THREE SUITS HE ACCUSES IIIS FATHER-IX-LAW OF DOLG MANY MEAN THINGS. In l in Made that He Lost His Wife and His Money Damage Salt Compromised Court News, William H. Cooper yesterday filed three suits in the Superior Court, two of them against his father-in-law, John Ellis, and the third against John Ellis and others. In the first suit Cooper sues to recover $10.000 damages for money given to his father-in-law, in trust. He alleges that he gave Ellis $9,600 in 1888 to be held, controlled and managed by him. In 1902, Cooper alleges, he made demands for the return of the money, which were refused. The second suit against Ellis is also to recover $10,000. Cooper alleges that he married Annette Ellis, the daughter of the defendant, on Nov. 28, 1883. Shortly after that date, Cooper charges, Ellis "wrongfully, wickedly and maliciously contrived and intended to injure the plaintiff by wrongfully and maliciously coaxing, tempting and persuading his wife to leave him, and that Ellis did, on OcL L 1902, induce Mrs. Cooper to file divorce proceedings In the Circuit Court." The court denied her a divorce and she returned to her husband. It is further alleged by Cooper that after his wife had returned to him his father-in-law still attempted to get her to leave him and finally did get her to do so, causing the plaintiff great humiliation and mental distress. The third suit is against John Ellis, Joepa i:ilis and the Security Trust Company, guardian of Joseph Ellis, and is brought to qujet title to thirty-three acres of land and live lots in Augusta, lnd. COMPROMISED Milt g3,000. Miss Bertha Yoang Settles Trith the Hallway Companies. Miss Bertha Young yesterday received $3,000 damages from the Indianapolis Traction and Terminal Company and the Indianapolis Union Railway Company in Judge Leathers's court by agreement of the parties to the suit. On the night of Nov. 26, 1902, Miss Young was the only passenger on a street car going to the South Side. When the car reached the intersection of the Belt tracks and Southeastern avenue a Belt switch enigne ran into the street car from the east and lifted it off the rails. A Belt engine a few seconds later struck the street car from the west and knocked it even feet. Miss Young received internal injuries by reason of the collision, and the motorman of tht street car and one of the trainmen were killed. Miss Young filed a suit for $15,000 before Judge Leathers on account of her injuries, and the case was venued to Brown county and Judge Buckingham was to have tried it. The attorneys on both sides agreed to dismiss the suit and settle it by agreement. An amended complaint was then filed by Miss Young yesterday in the Marion Superior Court in order that the case might be settled in the court where It was originally brought a SAYS SALOON IS M ISANCE. Lucy A. Caylor Wants S5.000 Damages and Restraining- Order. The State of Indiana on the relation of Lucy A.

McXamara on account of alleged damages to her property by the operation of a saloon near her premises. Th plaintiff alleges that Compton runs a saloon Immediately north of her property, a cement sidewalk only Intervening between the two premises. Mrs. Caylor further alUges that Compton has sold intoxicating liquors on Sundays and at other illegal hours and has permitted drunken persons to congregate about his place who engage in loud talk and profane and vile language and other disorderly conduct within the hearing of the plaintiff and her family. The plaintiff also asks that a permanent Injunction may i.su- to restrain Comptop from selling intoxicants.
