With the closing down of the co-opera-tive factories last night the window-glass industry in this State is practically at a standstill. The Hurrle Glass Company and the Blackford Window Glass Company. both of Hartford City, are still In operation, but they do not belong to either of the ’trusts or the co-operative federation. The fact that the co-opera-tives finally consented to close down yesterday ig a matter of considerable surprise among glass men as some of the co-operatives flatly refused to listen to the proposals of the trusts and announced that they would run until the last of June, when the present wage agreement expires. It is believed that some of the co-operatives would have held out but for the fact that President Burns and President Denny, of the old and new L. A. 300, ordered the men out and threatened. It is said, to blacklist them with the union If they did not come to terms. However, it is understood that the two trusts helped matters by paying the co-operative companies considerations that would about equal the value of the glass they could manufacture between now and the last of

June.

With the closing of the co-operative factories comes an announcement that Leopold Mambourg, of Muncie, business agent of the co-operatives, has sold to a Pittsburg (Pa.) company 1,000,000 boxes of glass. This, it is said, will about equal the output of the co-operatives during the next Are, and it lends color to the report that, the trusts, in order to Induce the co-operatives to close down at thia time so that prices can be advanced, have entered into an agreement to market the entire product of the co-oper-atives. The closing of the window glass factories means that several thousand men in this State will be out of employment for several weeks, but this was not unexpected, as all of the window glass factories close during the summer. It Is likely, though, that work will be resumed earlier than usual, as it is understood that the stocks are not heavy, and, furthermore, it is thought the activity of the officials of the labor organizations In getting the co-operatives to close at this time means th&t the wage scale for the next fire has been practically agreed to. The factories, it is said, will resume about September 16. Befor e the opening of the next Are there promises to be unusual activity among the manufacturers in erecting new plants, although It is represented by the trusts that there is now an overproduction. Few new factories, however, will be erected in the gas belt this year, as compared to other years. Many of the manufacturers are losing confidence in the gas field. The tendency Is toward the coal fields, where Inducements are being held out. It Is understood that two, and possibly four, glass factories will be located at Terre Haute this summer, and a large company has been incorporated for the purpose of building a plant at Vincennes. A number of Indiana manufacturers are preparing built plants in Ohio, where they can obtain coal at a low price. One company made up of Dunkirk -window glass men has begun the construction of a large factory at Sandusky, O., and has entered into a long contract for coal, to be delivered at less than a dollar a ton. However, a number of the manufacturers continue to pin their faith to the gas belt, and large factories are to be erected at Matthews and at Shlrely. NO PLUMBING ORDINANCE. Mayor Taggart Vetoes the Council Measure. Mayor Taggart has returned to the City Council, with his disapproval, the plumbing ordinance, which was passed by the Council May 6, after ten years of agitation over the subject. It is considered likely now that the ordinance will fail, as a two-thirds vote is necessary to pass it over the mayor’s disapproval, and it is expected that the Democrats will stand by the mayor. The veto message fol-

lows;

’The plumbing inspector, according to the provisions of the ordinance, is appointed by the Board of Health and Charities. Any appeal from any decision of the inspector, according to the present ordinance, must be made to the Board of Public Works. It would seem to me that the plumbing inspector, who would be under the jurisdiction of the Board of Public Health and Charities, that any appeal from hts decision in regard to plumbing matters should be made to said Board of Health. "Section 6 provides that in case of a firm or combination of persons, other than a corporation, engaged in the business of plumbing, each and every member of such firm or combination of persons shall pass such examination, and be licensed as herein provided. This is an unjust discrimination between a corporation and a firm. “Section 16 provides that every dwelling house, hotel, apartment house, tenement house, factory, store or other building in which plumbing arrangements are to be placed shall be connected with the city sewer, when such sewer is provided, and when such sewer Is not provided with a cesspool In a location to be approved by the Inspector of plumbing. As no distance for a sewer connection Is named from a building, It is indefinite and uncertain in this section. "The meaning of tenement house and apartment should be defined. Ordinarily a tenement house Is a building arranged for three or ifaore families doing cooking independently. According to Section 17, every building in which a fire wall divides said building there shall be separate and independent plumbing. Many double houses are now being constructed, with a fire wall" separating the two halves. In order to reduce the cost of plumbing in these buildings a line of soil pipe is run in this fire wall for the purpose of eervlng the two sides of the building; also, one house drain, with all of the necessary appurtenances. According to the provisions of this section It will be necessary to provide separate and independent drains, and separate and independent soil and vent pipes. This is burdening the property owners with considerable extra expense. “In Section 25 another burdensome provision exists, requiring every refrigerator or waste pipe to discharge Into a drip tray, and thence into an open sink. This provision would be proper In hotels, tenement houses and apartment houses, but I think it entirely unnecessary in private dwellings, as the owner of the dwelling would be required to put in in addition to the drip tray, a sink. This sink must be provided with a flap, with a vent pipe, oil df which would add greatly to the cost of the plumbing. “Section 32 is in conflict with Section 26 as to the else of vent pipes. “Section- 41 provides for grease traps under every sink in hotels, restaurants, eating house or boarding-house, or other public cooking establishments. This provision should be made optional with the Inspector to require only -such grease traps where a waste pipe would be liable to be clogged up by grease from the kitchen sink in the kind of buildings described. •The provisions of this ordinance requiring' in all cases extra heavy cast Iron or wrought iron soil, vent and waste pipes; providing for vent pipes for all trap*, requiring independent soil ana vent pipes for all buildings or parts of 1 buildings separated by fire walls, requir1 ing a test of all plumbing and drainage ) system, will add greatly to the present cost of plumbing. A plumbing ordinance. in rov judgment, should be J passed requiting at the beginning only j such provisions as are necessary to »e- > cure proper sanitary conditions. It is also apparent that one plumbing tnspeci tor can not look after and do the work satisfactorily provided for in this ordi- ; nance, The result will be that the in-

spection of plumbing In many houses will be delayed, causing additional ex-

pense to the property owners.” Council Committee Meetings.

The City Council committee on ordinances will meet again to-morrow night to consider Mr. Perrott’s ordinance for the repeal of the ordinance granting to the Parry Manufacturing Company the right to lay a switch to its new factory site west of White river. The committee was not able to reach a decision at

its last meeting.

The committee on sewers, streets and alleys will also meet to-morrow night to consider the ordinance for an asphalt pavement in Bellefontaine street, from Fifteenth to Twenty-first street, and the ordinance for a wooden block pavement in Tenth etreet, from the canal to

West street.

“ITIIE EltCTIOI OF LOREE

MADE PRESIDENT OF THE B. & O, AS EXPECTED.

MR. BAERNSTEIN’S RECITAL Mr. Baernsteln’s song recital at the Propylmum last night seemed to indicate that there is truth in the old saying, “The third time's the charm.” On his two previous appearances here this season the audiences were surprisingly small. Last night, however, he faced a house more nearly commensurate with hls artistic standing, one fine in quality and at least fair In numbers. It was a delightful occasion. Mr. Baernsteln’s voice was at times husky, and the heavy fore part of the program was a severe strain. Hans Sach s song from “Die Meisterslnger" suffered on this account and suggested the wisdom of omitting one or two of the more exacting numbers Immediately following, such as the song of the dancing-master, with Its trying skips, demanding' a throat In prime condition. Anxious.not to disappoint his hearers, however, Mr. Baernsteln followed his printed program exactly, and by his masterly art and emotional power made an unforgettable impression. In the ballads that succeeded the operatic airs and the oratorio selections, Mr. Baernstein's voice regained Its bell-llke timbre, and from then on he was heard at his best. The beautiful Schubert songs, “Der Lindenbaum,” sung wim exquisite tenderness; “Wohin?” poetic and dreamy, and “Der Doppelgsenger,” piercing in Its anguish, formed an incomparable group. Near neighbors In depth of appeal and artistic loveliness were Grieg’s ‘Tch Llebe Dlch” and Schumann’s ‘Tch Grolle Nicht,” every line of which is freighted with profound feeling, every bar of which is a tragedy. Mr. Baensteln’s voice might here have been an inferior voice, and his intensely musical temperament and fine, chaste ardor would still have won him distinction; advantaged as he was by one of depth, power and of the ’cello’s timbre, warm in sympathy and Instant In response to textual.modulations, he won a triumph. Double and triple measures of applause were his re-

ward.

The English songs of the next group. In lighter \ein, came as a relief. Of these, Mr. Van der Stucken's dainty ballal, “The Sweetest Flower That Blows.” was the one of rarest quality. Finally there came a group of humorous songs, including “A Tragic Tale,” “Falstaff’s g,” ‘The Quid Plaid Shawl” and “Off Philadelphia," which sent the audl-

Som

to

ence away with smiling faces. It was a remarkable recital. The wide gamut of emotions sounded, the engaging presence of the singer, his self-con-trol, though conscious of hls treacherous throat, the beauty of the songs themselves—"Jewel songs,” all of them— combined to make It so. It is to be hoped we shall hear Mr. Baernxtein in

Indianapolis again.

AMUSEMENTS.

GENERAL MOVEMENT UPWARD

This is What is Looked for on the Pennsylvania Lines, and the Situation Causes Conjecture —Other Railroad News.

L. F. Loree was elected president of the Baltimore & Ohio system of railways at the annual meeting of that company, yesterday afternoon, as was expected. The purpose of the Pennsylvania is to have charge of the Baltimore & Ohio property, and Mr. Loree, it is asserted,

L. F. LOREE, The New President of the B. &, 0.

will appoint as general manager George L. Potter, the present general manager of the Pennsylvania lines west of Pittsburg. This will mean a general movement upward on the Pennsylvania lines, and everyone Is wondering what is going to happen. If Mr. Potter goes to the Baltimore A Ohio as general manager, it is expected that G. L. Peck, the present general superintendent, will be promoted to general manager, but all of this Is “roundhouse talk,” no one here being able to figure out what will happen. If J. J. Turner becomes general maanger, H. I. Miller will be made general manager of the Vandalia, and/there will be a shifting around on that road. All of the Pennsylvania officers hero are in the dark as to what will happen in the way of appointments. If John W. Renner Is made fourth vicepresident it will be a departure from the usual methods in line of promotions on the Pennsylvania. There has not been a change for many years in the auditing department, of which Mr. Renner Is the head.

ANDERSON’S NUMEROUS TRAINS

Th® Park Theater. Herbert Hall Winslow's well-liked comedy drama, “A Barrel of Money,” will be the last attraction of the season at the Park Theater, opening there this afternoon and continuing the rest of the week. In “A Barrel of Money” there is a sensational element, a complicated plot, and enough comedy to satisfy to the fullest extent the most ardent devotee of that very pleasant adjunct to an enjoyable.- dramatic production. The play is produced with special ricenery, said to be elaborate. It includes the Interior of a country tavern, kept by a typical “downEaster,” whose homespun logic and Vermont vernacular are as refreshing as the odor of new-mown hay. Then there Is the Interior of an Iron mill at work and the exterior and outlying grounds of a residence on the Hudson, and the rich parlor of a prosperous manufacturer. Lulu May appears as Roxy, Ralph Ravencraft as Hy Haslett and John Preston In the heavy role of Harrison Swift, the mill superintendent. “My Moonbeam Babe” will be given at every performance. Military Drama at the Grand. On Saturday night at the Grand Opera House there is to be a performance of. the military drama, “The Hero of the Ninety-third New York Regiment,” for the benefit of the Troop A cavalry organization of the Modern Woodmen of America. The drama is to be presented under the management of Albert Church, who has secured a list of professional actors for the various speaking parts of the play. The supernumary parts will be played by the members of the Modern Woodmen. The play deals with certain episodes In the civil war, is in five acts, with a tableau, and its most Important and thrilling scene deals with Pickett’s famous charge at the battle of Gettysburg. In the action of the play several horses are used, and these will be secured from the cavalry troop for whose benefit the performance Is given. The play has been In rehearsal for several weeks, and the managers promise that a finished performance will be given. The play has been produced successfully In the East. FIRE DEPARTMENT CHANGES.

116 Chances to Get in or Out of that City Daily. [Special to The Indianapolis N«wa] ANDERSON, Ind., May 30.—Railway men and travelers are speculating as to whether there is another city in Indiana with facilities for getting in and out equal to the proposed arrangement for this city. At this time there are 110 opportunities daily for entering or departing from this city on regular passenger cars of the steam and electric railway lines. When the new schedule and improved train service goes Into effect on the Big Four Monday the daily Ins and outs, electric and steam, will be increased to 116, of which number fortyfour are on the railroads, and the rest on the interurban lines. One hundred and sixty miles of electric railway of the Union Traction Compkny centers in this city. There are four divisions—Muncle, Marion. Elwood and Indianapolis, with this city as a general terminal. On each division the interurban cars start out at 5 a. m. daily, except on the Indianapolis line, where the cars begin their schedule at 4:30 a. m. Cars are in and out on each division every hour until 11 o’clock p. m., the last cars coming in during the midnight hour. The central passenger station of the electric lines Is in the largest ground floor room of the Masonic Temple, in the central part of the city. Porters and train callers, baggage hustlers and ticket sellers are all In evidence at this station. At the Big Four station, the position of station master has become an important one, and two men now have the work of calling trains.

Shifting of Apparatus and Numbers to Meet New Conditions. The building of three new engine houses, the remodeling of others, and the purchase of new apparatus by the fire detriment will necessitate much readjustment in the department, and the renumbering‘of several of the houses. The changes in the numbering have already been decided on, keeping In view the policy of the Board of Safety to have the houses at which there are engines numbered in rotation. The engine now at No. 4 house, Madison avenue and Morris street, will be taken to the present Nc.. 17 hose house at Morris and West streets. The numoers will be changed about, and there will be an old hose wagon and a new hook and ladder wagon at the old No. 4 house. The hose house No. 10. at Illinois and Merrill streets, will retain the same number, but there will be a new engine stationed there. There will also be a new engine at No. 16 house in East Washington street, and its number will be changed to No. 11. Old No. 11, in Virginia avenue, will be changed to No. 12. No. 12. at Bevllle avenue and Michigan street, will be No. 20. The engine now at No. 9, In North Indianapolis, will bs taken to the Haughville house, now No. 20, which will be known as No. 9. The No. 12 Bevills-avenue hose house will be renumbered No. 20. The present No. 9 North Indianapolis house will be hose company No. 23. The new house to be built at English avenue and Harlan street will be No. 15. The new hose house at Ashland avenue and Twentysecond street will be No. 22. The new house In Cereaiinetown will be No. 24. The hose company at the West Indianapolis house will still be No. 19 and the new hook and ladder company to be stationed at this house will be No. 6. The new hook and ladder company to be stationed at the house at Morris etreqt and Madison avenue will be No. 7. The book and ladder company at the house at Hillside avenue and Sixteenth street will be No. *. The engine company at the same house will remain No. 2.

JUDGE BAKER ON PORTO RICO. Letter Written in March, 1900, In Harmony with Recent Decision. While the Porto Rico tariff question was pending In Congress, in March, 1900, John H. Baker, judge of the United States court, wrote a letter to a Senator, at Washington, in which he expressed views that are In accord with the judgment of the Supreme Court in its ruling on the tariff measure. In the letter Judge

Baker said:

“I have not given any careful consider^ ation to the constitutional questions in» volved in the recent Tariff bill passed by the House. I am disposed to think that the power of Congress to legislate for the' territories belonging to the United States Is plenary, and that the only limitation upon such power is found In the prohibitory clauses of the constitution. There are some things that the Congress is expressly prohibited from doing, and, of course, those things it can not do whether intended to operate upon the people of the States or of the territories. I do not assent to the doctrine that seems to be contended for by those who aro loudest in their clamor against the recent. Porto Rico tariff bill of the House, that the inhabitants of a territory are entitled to claim all the privileges and immunities secured by the constitution to the inhabitants of the Staves. If this were so, I see no reason why the judges appointed for the term of four years should not hold their offices during good behavior. "The constitution dedares that the Judicial power of the United States shall be vested In one Supreme Court, and in such Inferior courts as may from time to time be established by Congress, and that the judges of these courts shall hold their offices during good behavior, and receive a compensation to be fixed by law, which shall not be diminished during their term. Now, if the Territories are a part of the United States, in the sense of this clause of the constitution, then the practice from Washington down, of every department of the Government

has been wrong.

“I think the question involved in the Porto Rico tariff bill Is simply one of public policy, and, speaking for myself, I think that the wiser policy in dealing

wlth the people of that island would be to give them free access to our markets. I am In sympathy with the proposed Davis amendment, which, as I understand it, proposes to carry by congressional enactment certain provisions of the constitution to the Island of Porto Rico and make them a part of the supreme law of that island. I realise that the sugar, tobacco and coffee, constituting the staple products of that island, are owned either by the great planters of the island or by speculators, who have bought them up and who alone will be benefited by their free Importation into this country; but It does not seem to me that this consideration ought to be entitled to great weight in determining the policy of the Government In reference to the people of

that island.

“As to the existing crop of sugar, tobacco and coffee now in the hands of the larger planters and speculators, a free trade policy will only give them an advantage for the present crop. In respect to future crops, the laboring people of Porto Rico will doubtless receive their share of the benefit of a free trade policy by enhanced prices for their labor, and by an Increased 'opportunity to

labor.

‘With the knowledge of tbs subject which I now possess, if called upon to vote upon the question, I should, as a matter of policy simply, vote in favor of a policy of free trade between the island of Porto Rico and the United States.” West Indianapolis Entertainment. An entertainment at Trinity M. E. church, West Indianapolis, under the auspices of the choir, was largely attended, and creditable.

CHICAGO. May to-day were □ot a holiday, the machinists’ strike would be in lull blast,” said Business Agent Roderick, of District No. 8, of the International Association of Machinists. It is regarded as an advantage by the union mfen that they have a holiday preceding the strike, which was ordered here yesterday, as all the workmen can be so rounded up In the Interval of one day that the tie-up of the local machinery plants will be made practically complete to-mor-row morning. According to the calculations of Agent Roderick, about 2,000 machinists will be Involved at the start in the general walkout. This is only half the number of union machinists in Chicago and vicinity. It is claimed by Roderick and others of the union’s executive board that the reason why the other 2,000 will not be affected is that their employers have either ttigped the union scale of wages already, or express their willingness to sign. It has been the claim for the union machinists that a strike by them would regult in the complete tie-up of every foundry or workshop under the ban of their strike order. If these claims are mode good the general strike now declared would throw perhaps 25.000 or 30,000 men out of employment In Chicago. UNIONS AT LOGGERHEADS. Carpenters Are Boycotting the Wood < Workera* Organization. [Special to Th# Indianapolis Nswa.) ELWOOD, Ind., May 30.—The question which of two unions shall have the jurisdiction over building work done on the inside oi mills, the point of dispute between the Carpenters’ Union and the Amalgamated Association of Woodworkers, has stopped all building improvements In the city. All of tbs union carpenters have* stopped work. Tbs wood-workers employed In the mills are going right along. The circumstance of one union fighting another is an unusual one. Notwithstanding the material from the mills bears the union label, the carpenters refusq to work unless the men who produce it demand an advance of wages. No decision on the matter hgs yet been reachfed by the executive committee of the American Federation of Labor, which has the matter under ad-

visement.
