1). & 0. REFUSED * ORDER TYING UP STATE ON RATES Anderson Denies Immediate Ban on Interference With Federal Boost. SETS HEARING FEB. 21 Hearing on the application of the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad for a temporary injunction against the public service commission of Indiana and U. S. Lesh, attorney general for Indiana, to prevent the State authorities from interfering with the order of the Interstate Commerce Commission issued Thursday by which intrastate passenger and freight rates for Indiana are raised to a level with interstate rates, was set f.-r Monday morning at 10 o'clock by Judge Gilbert B. Anderson in Federal Court today after he had refused to grant a temporary restraining order. The case will be heard before three Judge*. Judge Francis E. Baker nnd another judge from the Circuit Court of Appeals at Chicago 3nd Judge An lcrson. Attorneys for the B. & O. came into court apaprently expecting to have an easy victory. The bill of complaint was printed and practically was the same used In similar suits decided in favor of the carriers in Illinois and Wsconsln. From the manner in which Morrison R. Waite, Cincinnati, general solicitor for the railroad, presented his case if'“*ms apparent he thought the proceedings little more than a matter of form. ANDERSON .NOT MUCH IMPRESSED. The line of questioning pursued by Judge Anderson and his remarks indicated early ia the hearing, however, that the court did not so regard it. “The mere fact that someone else has granted an order of this character,’* Judge Anderson said, “is not sufficient to make your case. I cannot see where the emergency lies in this matter. You want to have this put into effect in the face of opposition of the Sta*. You will have to show me. You are asking execution in advance of Judgment.” Attorney General Lesh opposed the restraining order on the ground that there was no necessity in view of the fact the Btate had no intention of taking any immediate 6teps in the matter, but would wait until disposal of the injunction suit filed Thursday by the public service coinmission to prevent the new rates from bting put into effect. ROADS FEAR IRREPARABLE LOSS. Attorneys for the railroads underrook to show that the delay would cause an “irreparable loss to the companies of about $15,000 a day.” This argument met with little :ympathy from the court. “The shippers and passengers are the ones who will suffer the irreparable loss in case this restraining order is issued and the higher rates are put into effect and then later the question is decided against you,” Judge Anderson said. "They never could 'get back their money.” Suits exactly like the one filed by the Baltimore & Ohio are being filed by practically every carrier in Indiana engaged In interstate traffic. At the hearing the prlneinal argument for the railroad was made by Mr. Waite, although attorneys for various other roads broke in ffom time to time. Attorney General Lesh and Sutuner Kenner, assistant attorney general, appeared for the State.

RED AGENTS PLACE ORDERS IN CHICAGO

CHICAGO, Feb. 18. —Chicago garment manufacturers reported today their approach by men said to be representatives of the Russian soviet government who are here attempting to sign contracts for huge orders of clothing. According to one dealer, the “soviet agents'' appear to be plentifully supplied with money and have offered to deposit sums as high as $500,000 in local hauks as evidence of good faith. Where factory outputs are small they have offered to advance three weeks' wages to defray the expense of factory enlargement. In making their negotiations the “soviet” agents are said to have told man-

AID TO PRIVATE SCHOOLS FALLS UNDER ASSAULT (Continued From IWge One.) i reason why the State should extend 1 funds to them. MINORITY REPORTS SIGNED BY FIFIELD. The minority committee reports, all signed by Representative Oito G. Fitield, 1 Lake Copnty, favored referring the bills to the committee of the whole for action, i The majority reports in each instance provided for indefinite postponement. The bills were introduced by Representative Raymond E. Willis of Steuben County for Tri-State College; Representative J. Glenn Harris, Lake County, for Valparaiso University; Representative | George W. Freemnn, Howard County, for Central Normal College, and Representative Benjamin F. Davis, Hendricks County, for the SIOO,OOO appropriation. The debate was lengthy and the members in several instances uttered somewhat acrimonious .statements. It was charged by Representative Oscar A. Ahlgren. Lake County, that most of the members, Inasmuch as they had never visited some of the institutions and yet objected to extending aid, were speaking on a subject of which they knew nothing. SPEAKER CUTS OFF DEBATE. In the discussion of the levy for Valparaiso, the Speaker, John F. McClure, cut off debate. Representative Harris demanded the right to close the argument on his own bill, but the Speaker Ignored him and put the question. Representative Harris then demanded the ayes and noes, and when it came his time to rote he denounced the Speaker for not giving him an opportunity to speak on his own bill in answer to the arguments against him. “Whenever the Speaker arbitrarily shuts off dehate on a measure and denies a member the opportunity to express his arguments in opposition to statements made against him on the floor of the House, then it is time for the members of the House to wake up nnd do something,” staid Representative Harris. “I don’t care what any one else thinks about it. I mean what I say. I vote no.” It was charged by Representative R J*. Barker, Posev County, that the founder of Valparaiso had become rich from receipts of the school and now wished to turn over the university to the State. “Is not this the same manner in which Indiana University, Purdue University and the State Normal School got on the State pay roll?” asked Representative Barker. Representative Harris replied that tHat may have been the way in which the schools came under State control, but he added that now the State, since i is paying $650 per capita for the education of the students in the thtee State schools, should not object to a small levy for the private institutions that are Just as efficient as the State universities. He scored the representatives of the universities who. he said, are engaged in a lobby for their schools.

STATE WATERWAY COMMISSION FAILS. The House Committee on Rivers and Waters returned a divided report on Senate bill No. lift, providing for crention of a commission to decide on construction of the Lake Michigan toOhlo River waterway. The minority report favored Indefinite postponement and was. adopted. It was deelared that the $5.000, that wonld be appropriated could be better used for the topographical survey of the State, for which a bill is now pending In the House. The Committee on Federal Relations reported favorably a resolution that the House and Senate join in a barbecue at the Coliseum at the State fair grounds Saturday. Feb. 26. The barbecue 1s to be arranged by Representative Charles Kares, a barbeeueist of Evansville, and is to be attended by the Legislators and wives and friends. The James bill, providing additional clerical help for county auditor*, was reported unfavorably by the Judiciary B. Committee. A similar bill had been killed on the floor of the House during the present session. A flood of bills was expected to be introduced In the House late in the day. the last day for introduction of measures. A rule adopted at the beginning of the session placed a limit of forty-five days on the introduction of bills. After to-

ufacturers of their “inside information” that President-elect Harding will recognize officially the existing Russian government on March 18. A number of clothing manufacturers, it is reported, have refused to sign the soviet contracts, declaring the proposition to be a clever propaganda scheme to create favor for Russia among the garment workers here, many of whom are out of work because of canceled contracts. MEXICO CITY, Feb. 18.—A “soviet party” ha* been formed in Mexico with General leader. It was declared today that the Governors of twelve States were affiliated with Che movement.

day no bills can be introduced without the consent of the majority of the members. TAKE CUE FROM ROAD AFFAIRS AND SET LIMIT (Continued From Page One.) enforcement would be a matter of administration. Senator Estes Duncan, Cloverdale, said that it must be assumed that men who handle State funds are honest. He declared there should be enough honorable men in the State to administer the law properly. Senator Holmes explained later that the finance board of the State would check the withdrawals. “They also check the withdrawals of the highway director,” Senutor Strode replied. He recalled again that it has been charged that the highway director had abused his rights under ilie law and demanded to know what assurance the Senate had that it would not take place again. “The bill ought not to appeal to the Senate for one minute," Senator Joseph M. Cravens of Madison exclaimed. “What do they do wlih all the money of the fish and game and oil inspection departments? If they caE't take care of their affairs the board ought to be abolished." It was then that Senator Moorhead asked and obtained permission to amend his bill to limit the withdrawals. 1 ÜBERCULOSIS DRUG BILL PASSED. After having once failed because of a lack of a constitutional majority the Maier bill, providing that the State food and drug department shall inspect medicines advertised as beneficial to persona suffering from tuberculosis, passed the Senate today by a vote of 27 to 11. Other bills passed include the following: Providing that the sanitary district law shall apply to cities of the second as well ns the first class; that building and loan companies and associations may publish their fiiiaucia! reports instead of delivering them to stockholders in person, as is the custom now; that the hoard of health may reimburse George Lambert of Clinton In the sum of $273.22 due him from the hydrophobia fund.

SENTENCE TO FARM CHANGED (Continued From Pg* One.) bottle of “white mule” whisky and the three whisky glasses were exhibited in court ns part of the evidence. So strong was the evidence that Shaneff was found guilty and fined SIOO and costs and sentenced to serve fifty days on the Indiana State Farm. He was asked If lie wished to appeal and Shnncff said "no, that he got off as light us he could expect.” A feature of the evidence was Slianeff s plea to the. policeman not to arrest him, as the "penal farm is a terrible place. I know all about it, as my brother Just got out of the farm and he told me." When Patrolman Owens asked Slianeff what was so ••terrible" about the Indiana State Farm Owens testified that Mike answered, “They make you fiork there." But the “soft pedal” arrangement, made in some mysterious way after the sentence had been pronounced in court, iias kept Slianeff’ in jail for fifty days Instead of his going to the farm. When asked about the mysterious change in the court order Judge Walter Pritchard said: “Someone came to, me. I don't remember who, but they told me Slianeff was sick, and 1 changed tile order and sent him to Jail instead of the farm.” Mike Shaneff is 21. He appears to he a powerfully built man, whom the average person would think was an athlete He is a close frlen dos Louie Brown and “Fat” Louie, boxing and wrestling promoter; is n prominent worker for the “good government political machine," and spends most of his time in the city clerk's office or In the vicinity of the turnkey's office nnd city court. Louie lines up the voters in the west end for the “good government machine.” He is a professional bondsman. Tiie records show that Angel Shnncff. brother of Mike, was convicted of operating a blind tiger, nnd on Jan. 28, 1820, was sentenced to serve forty days on the Indiana State Farm and fined SIOO and cost*.

MAN HELD UP IN OWN HOME Stumbles on Burglar at Work and Encounter Costs $75. Another chapter in the crime wave that has been sweeping Indianapolis was recorded last night when a burglar held up and robbed a man who had returned home unexpectedly and a few hours later a street car conductor was held up and robbed. A. P. Conklin, 2029 North Meridian street, his wife and daughter returned home at 7 o’clock. Mr. Conklin walked into a room where he had left a package of cigarettes and found them missing. Thinking they were upstairs, he went to the second floor. At the top of the stairway he met a man who covered him with a revolver. “Jfand over your money and do it quick," was the order. Conklin handed the man a roll of bills, amounting to about $75. Then Conklin was ordered to turn his face to the wall, then was told to enter a designated room and lock the door. He obeyed. WOMEN BUN FROM HOUSE. Mrs. Conklin and her daughter heard the man ordering Conklin to give up his money and ran from the house. When the police emergency squad, under Sergeant Sheehan, reached the house, Conklin was still locked in the room, the men had not returned and the burglar had escaped. Tho thief bad entered by forcing a window in a sun parlor and had left the house by another window. The only thing the burglar had taken before Conklin arrived home was the package of cigarettes. The burglar was a white man. There has been a series of bold robberies in the North Meridian street residence district during the last month and police have been baffled. Detectives have been unable to obtain any clews and it was not until Conklin was held up that any person was found who could give the police a description of the robber. BOY HELPS IN HOLD-UP. The other hold-up was committed at the end of the Shelby street enr line at Shelby street and Perry avenue. Dale Beach, 1838 Sugar Grove avenue, conductor, was on the rear plntforin when a man, accompanied by a boy who did not appear to be more than 15, ran from behind a billboard. The boy pulled the trolley from the wire and the man got on the car, poking a revolver In Beach's side. When tiie conductor proved slow at surrendering his money the man reached over and pulled a bill book from the street car man’s pocket and took the conductor's watch. He left the car and both robbers disappeared tn an alley. No attempt was made to rob Charles Wilkins, 1734 Paris avenue, the motorman. Tho. thieves did not take the change In the holder on the conductor's belt. There was $9 in the fold taken from the conductor. Burglars during the night entered School No. 3. Utica! and Washington streets, and ransacked the desks. Beulah Ames, employed by tho Hook Drug Company, 105 North Illinois street, reported sls was stolen from the pocket of her coat that was hanging in the store.

NO FOES ATTEND BONDS HEARING Cash, Not Memorial, Is Plea of Advocates. That they were in favor of a straight cash bonus for ex-soldlers In to the erection of a memorial was the consensus of opinion expressed by approximately 200 ex-service men who attended a public hearing last night on the Newman bill, which provides a State bonus of $lO for each month of service. No estimates were given by supporters of the bill as to the probable cost, but those who have figured out the proposition say it would entail an expenditure of approximately $20,000,000. Representatives of the World War Veterans’ Association, American War Mothers and disabled veterans, as well as Representatives in the Legislature, spoke for the measure. There were no speakers in opposition. Only three members of the House Ways and Means Committee, before which the hearing was held, were present. They were Representatives Otto G. Fifield, chairman; John W. Winesburg, Wabash County, and Henry L. Humrichouser, j Marshall County. I Almost every speaker took occasion tcJ score the Bowers German language billlf which is now ready for third reading and passage in the Senate. Representative Outer TT.

Dr. Charles 11. Bidaman, member of the 1919 Assembly and father of bonus bills in that and the special session of 1920, which were defeated, spoke In favor of the new measure. Mr3. Alice M. French, national head Os the American War Mothers, declared the War Mothers were a unit In favor of the bill. “Indiana shed the first blood that was spilled In the World War and It was an Indiana boy that fired the first shot of the war,” she said. “I am sorry that Indiana was not the first State to pass a bonus bill."
