fSpecs*! to The Indianapolis Sew*} VINCENNES, ind.. April 1*.—What is regarded the most sensational suit for damages filed in the Knox circuit court in months was placed on the docket Thursday, when Dr. Georga F. Smith, of Bickneil. brought action against Drs. Thomas If. Staley. Harry E. Dees, present coroner of Knox county. William E. Kessinger. and

Guy H. Wilson, all practicing Bfcknell

physicians and surgeons Dr. Smith township

asks and alleges that the defendants used every effort to gat him out of BlcknelL Blackhand letters threats of murder, false charges, court triala and sensational allegations feature the long complaint. The suit. It is said, is the outgrowth of trouble which took place more than a year ago when efforts were made to have state board of medical examiners revoke the license of Dr. Smith on the ground that he obtained the license through fraud. The charges were filed with the state board and after a hearing in Indianapolis the license was revoked. Dr. Smith later took an appeal to the Knox circuit court and won his case, again obtaining his license and opening his offices in Bickneil. It is said in the complaint that before the charges were filed with the state board, blackhand letters were sent to Dr. Smith threatening his life In the event he failed to leave the dtv of Bickneil within a certain length bf time. All parties in the suit are prominent and wealthy.

Harris •( Butler, Says Strikes Are the Great Cause. “If the modern world with Us highly specialised industrial aystem could only exist without strife betwmn employer and employe," declared Prot wilmer C. Harris, head of the history department in a lecture at Butler College Thursday, “we would have more luxuries and comforts than nay of us want at this time." - _ _ .. Professor Harris scouted the theory that excessive demands for luxuries were the cause of the high coat of living. Hs referred to the present railway strike as an example to prove niffUtiiii •Tf we could only perfect this great international machine so that no cog would slip,“ he aaid. "there would b« plenty for every one. Professor Harris said strikes are the great cause for high prices.

Notice to Gas Consumers!

There has been no material change in the gas situation during

oil W(

improve conditions to any great ex-

tent, while embargoes against Indianapolis on our principal coal

the past 48 hours. A few cars of coal and

tne p terda

were received yes-

ay, but not sufficient to

roads make future prospects more gloomy than they have been heretofore. We have been able to do no more than maintain gas stocks by our system of fair pressure during cooking hours and a

minimum pressure at other times.

A slight change will be made in the hours of better supply so

that they will be as follows:

5:30 to 7:30 A. M. 11 A. M. to 1 P. M.

5 to 7 P.M.

The reason for the change in the early period is the request of . many workmen for a supply of gas for earlier breakfast. The hours first established by us are those desired by the greatest number of consumers, but since some must have an early breakfast in .order to get to work in time, and those who are accustomed to later breakfasts can change to an earlier time during this emergency, it has seemed reasonable to make the change in-

dicated.

To gas consumers who are disappointed because they can not get gas for heating, we are able to report that the railroads are still able to move coke to most of the coal yards of the city. Up to the present time there has been no shortage of fuel for domestic

purposes.
