SHANK SAYS JEWETT MUST MAKE ANSWER Insists on Replies to Eight Questions Submitted to Mayor. ‘BURGLARY 7 PLAN HINTED Mayor Charles W. Jewett was challenged to answer eight questions by Samuel Lewis Shank in speeches last night under pain of being adjudged a. crook or a coward by default. “Several days ago I addressed eight ; public questions to the mayor touching j on the garbage plant deal, he condition of streets, the failure to establish play- ‘ grounds and other matters of votal iru- I portante to the citizens of Indianapolis." j said Mr. Shank. “He has not answered j those questions, although he is stumping , the city in an effort to get the people j to confirm his choice for his successor, j “Charlie’s idea of a hot campaign j speech is to declare with frantic ernpha- j sis that Lew Shank shall not be mayor j of ludianapolls :|gain. the Inference be- : ing that they who think for Charlie and | promise him high honors are planning some fancy counting on electiou day. Where they get the idea that lndianapo-1 lis is going to stand for a repetition of the daylight burglary of four years ago is beyond me. SPOILED CHILDREN, “They remind me of spoiled children. ; Tuesday evening they hired all the bands in town to interrupt my meeting on In- j dlana avenue, the biggest demonstration 1 ever held there. The bands drew- a j small crowd from the outskirts of our j meeting where people could not hear, j Then the Indianapolis News devotes six j columns, including five stories and two j editorials to glorifying the Howe meet- j ing, which at the same time they said . was only a routine meeting no larger j and of no more importance than dozens of meetings held every week. My meeting they covered in about three sticks. If the Howe meeting was only a routine affair why did the News play it up as the biggest story of the day. There is a direct lie in that sort of thing. A newspaper which purports to tell the news and then performs in that childish fashion is on a parity with confidence men. “The News also made a crack about a horse which It said might make a speech for me. Without meaning anything personal to Dick Smith, I'll say that if any barnyard folk do speak for me they won’t bray. SAYS RIFE PACE SECOND IN COMMAND. “The News is trying hard to find; a gambler in the crowd supporting me to match against Rufe rage, negro crap shooter, who Is second in command of the Howe forces. They'll find one alright because the truth gives no concern to the institution of distilled j hypocrisy." Dr. W. H. Foreman. 4339 Broadway, j delivered a speech at the McKinley Club, I East Michigan street aud Hamilton ave- j nne, last night in the interest of Mr. Shank's candidacy. * Mrs. M. B. Spellman also addressed the ' McKinley Club, urging women workers ! to continue plugging np to election day. j Mr. Shank spoke last night at 810 Blake street, 450 West Fifteenth street, j 606 North Alabama street aud 901 College! avenue. Tonight he will speak at a dance giTen by the Mapleton Athletic i Club, Thirty-Fourth street and Capitol avenue; at 31S West Twentieth street and at five meetings in the Thirteenth ward.

‘HOLD-UP YARN PROVES FIZZLE Frees Men Charged With Mass Attack on Case. A strange reversal of the story told to ! the officers who arrested six men early yesterday morning failed to convict the men in city court today. Judge Pritchard dismissed charges of petit larceny, disorderly conduct and vagrancy against Leroy Lahcy. John Rockford, Dan Lynch and James Kelley, and charges of petit larceny and assault and battery with intent to rob against Bernard Shea. Mrs. Alice Lacy, employed in Fred Fitsford’s restaurant. 403 Kentucky avenue, called the police yesterday morning and told a dramatic story of how she had drawn a revolver when Shea opened the cash register, and how she bed forced fifteen men. who had stolen chewing gum and cigarettes and had refused to pay for their lunch, into the street a' ter they had broken soda bottles, and after two of them had grabbed her. Mrs. Lacy was strangely silent In court today. Pttsford did most of the talking, declaring that there had been no robbery at his restaurant, and that he even found an extra 6-cent pieec In the restaurant after the trouble. Pltsford was not at the restaurant when the trouble occurred, but arrived after the police had rounded up six men and after about four others had escaped. Three Men Arrested on Picketing Charge Three men were arrested today on affidavits charging them with violating the picketing ordinance at the C. and G. Pattern Works. The affidavits were sworn out by Fred Neff, 48 Euclid avenue. Those arrested were Francis Dillon. 83. 1319 Tabor street; A1 Moseman, SO, 3028 Central avenue, and Will Landmeyer, 1409 Kennington avenue. The men are held under bonds of $2,500. They are said to have attacked an employe of the pattern works. Cost Engineers to Hear Cleveland Man “X.iihor Remuneration - ’ will he the subject of an address by Charles E.

‘ELIJAH’ ORATORIO PRESENTED HERE Community Chorus, Assisted by Chicagoans, Portray Excellent Talent. “Elijah,” Mendelssohn's oratorio, was presented Wednesday evening in Tomlinson Hall by the Community Chorus, assisted by Mrs. Helen Protherce Axtell, soprano; Arthur Kraft, tenor; Minna Hager, contralto, and Rollin Pease, bass, all of Chicago, under the direction of Edward Bailey Birge. The concert was one of the municipal series being presented this season under the auspices of the school and park boards. Mrs. Axtell. who has appeared with the chorus before, is a finished oratorio singer, and her numbers were given with dignity and expressive beauty. Mr. Kraft, who is also well known among musical folk of the city, interpreted his .parts with artistic skill. Mr Pease, who sang the leading role of “Elijah," has a rich, powerful voice which showed to an excellent advantage In his numbers. Mrs. Hager's full voice wag most pleasing in her part. Particularly admirable were the quartette numbers, which displayed fine shading and smooth tone blending. A pleasing feature was the singing of a trio number by Mrs. Everett C. Johnscn. Miss Ruth Orerbaugh and Mrs. Jean McCormack, local artists. The chorus is one of which Indianapolis should be exceedingly proud for the great mass of voices has been trained to an unusually high point of ensemble singing. There is no roughuess no distressing thin intervals but it is a firm steady outpouring of tone that is absolutely satisfying to an audience. The interpretation of the various c lion rets was worthy of comment also, the big climax in the first part being given with splendid dramatic intensity. The instrumental setting was played , by the Municipal Symphony orchestra under the direction of P. Marinas Paulsen, with Miss*Dorothy Knight at the piano. BOOKWALTER MAKES PLAIN HIS PURPOSE (Continued From Page One.) the fraud that they have used, boasted and gloated over in every primary since 1912. “The people of Indianapolis do not know the full extent of the rottenness of the primary and election four years ago. In both instances fraudulent tickets were printed and used. A representative of the machine was sent to Chicago at the time of the primary because the scheme was crooked and they did not dare to trust any one of the hundred or more printers in Indianapolis to handle such a matter. MANY CANDIDATES DOUBLE-CROSSED. “Promises had been made to every candidate that if they would stand by Jewett they would eb put on the slate. Then the real slate was made up and emissaries sent to Chicago to get the tickets printed and on the day of the primary the double rr ss was put over on every candidate excepting the few ‘approved' by the machine. “That was not the worst of It. At the time of the election a copy of the official ballot was taken to Chicago and thousands of fraudulent tickets printed. These tickets in large quantities were placed with certain precinct committeemen with Instructions to hold them in their possession and that on the night of the election they would be notified how many had to be substituted fur actual votes cast In the ballot box. “This was done in more than twenty precincts. If the boasls of the gang are to be depended on, after the tickets bad been substituted the discovery was made that the Chicago product was printed on different paper and when the real and bogus tickets were placed side by side the fraud was easily noticeable. CHICKIED AFTER DANGER PASSED. “Some of the parties responsible did not sleep well until the time fixed by law had expired and they were allowed to destroy the ballots, which had been preserved. All of these charges cannot be substantiated now because the evidence was destroyed, but after the danger point had passed the parties who were responsible for it laughed and chuckled and boasted about how they had fixed the opposing candidate, who at that time was Mr. Shank. “If the same job 'thimblerigging' is not contemplated now, then why are so many henchmen boasting that the Robison and Shank people will wake up the morning after the primary to find that they have been ‘thrown,’ as one of the ’good government aud clean politics' crowd puts it?"

Jovial Fat Men Are Best Bonding Risk That bonding companies consider married men who live within their incomes and good-natured fat men ss the best risks, was set forth by Frederick N. Withey of New Y’ork in his talk at the weekly luncheon of the Klwanis Club, at the Hotel Severin yesterday. He said that a woman in a financial position was less likely to commit theft than a man, and that the desire to dress as well as her neighbor was the most common cause of theft by women. It was announced the Klwanis base - ball team will play its first game with De Pauw University at Grcencastle next Monday. The team will he accompanied by a large number of “rooters.”' HOED MAN FOR INVESTIGATION. Detectives today are Investigating to determine the reason why Louis Bremer, 21, who says he lives at the Y.

HOWE BUBBLE BURSTS AFTER HALL’S SPEECH (Continued From Fage One.) efforts being given a professor's chair and later the presidency. This office Professor Howe is said to have admin- j isterod in such a manner as to bring j the college to the brink of ruin, and 1 necessitate the employment of Pat Page j as athletic director at a salary of $7,500 ; and a financial secretary at an equal 1 expense in an effort to put Butler back ! on a sound financial basis. IV. O. Dunlavey. presided over the j meeting and following Mr. Hall's talk E. J. Robison spoke. In part Mr. flail said: “I have known Professor Howe since boyhood. We were students in Butler College together and I want to say very frankly that he was at all times a brilliant student, a student xshose ability I always have admired. And thanks to the kindness of a benefactor he was enabled to pursue his studies at Butler, in Germany and at Harvard lulversity. There is no question but that Professor Howe knows as much about the German language as any mau in Indianapolis today. lie can give you offhand the derivation of any German word and can parse any German verb as easily as if it were In His native tongue. He has taught German for years and during his years In Gesmany he thoroughly absorbed the German viewpoint in language, economics, politics and the system of German ‘kultur.’ “But as cultured and as highly educated, particularly In German, as Professor Howe is, it was with feelings of (he keenest amusement that I read a few ] days ago the wonderful tributes paid Professor Howe by Claris Adams and j Judge Quincy A. Myers at the McKinley Club meeting. And as I read I wondered what magic wand had transferred my friend of thirty-five years into such a hero. Os course, I realized that Mr. Adams Is still in his tender years and has mot yet passed out of the fairyland of his youth; but I could not understand why a man of the mature judgment and discretion of Judge Myers should so ex aggerate facts for the Anere sake of political expediency. SMOOTH TRAVEL v FOR MR. HOWE. “These gentlemen, Mr. Adnuis and Judge Myers, made the statements that Professor Howe had worked his way through college. Ha did nothing of the sort. He had all the comforts of a prosperous home, and when he gradu- ; ated from Butler College and wished to go abroad to study German language and German kultur in German unlversi- j ties, he was so fortunate as to have a benefactor to send him to Germany. | And this same benefactor, when Profea- j sor Howe had completed his studios in Germany, endowed a chair at Butler Col- \ lege with the distinct understanding that \ the occupant of that chair was to be picked by Professor Gavin, aqd it was understood in advance that Professor Gavin would pick Professor Howe for j that chair, and he did. “Later this same benefactor who had enabled Professor Howe to pursue his studies in Germany, put him In the j president's chair at Butier College. “Mr. Adams paints a delightful picture of how under the beneficent admlnistra- . tion of Professor Howe the Butler stu- i dent body grew from 300 to 050. Why, It should be more than 1,000 with the aid of Indianapolis to draw from. “Will Mr. Adams tell t>s anything or the condition of the permanent endow- j ment fund of Butler when Professor I Howe took the presidency and when he left it? I am afraid not. Asa plain : matter of fact under his administration 120,000 of the permanent endowment fund j ■apitul was used every year, nnd so desperate became the plight of the college ] that It reached a stage so critical that i a campaign to raise an emergency fund I was launched. This campaign failed and today Butler College is in danger of collapsing. ill Mr. Adams tell us why Professor Howe resigned as president of Butler? He retired in order that the college might not collapse under his administration. In order to bolsrer up the college an athletic director was hired at a salary of $7,500 a year and a financial agent at a salary of SO,OOO, with an expense allowance of an additional $1,500. Mr. Ilowo did not up prove of these moves and Uo stepped down and out. \ “Will Mr. Adams tell us why Professor Howe has never set foot on the Ilut . r campus since the day he gave up the presidency of the college? NOTHING OFT ST.AN DING IN HOWE REGIME. “V\ bat great policy did Professor Howe institute under bis regime? All be did was to try to convince the church! that Butler College was strictly orthodox and to convince ludianapolls that Butler 1 College was wholly nonsectarian. Do you ! call this policy of straddling working up against odds to success? “Will Mr. Adams tell us some other : things? Will he tell us that Professor Howe did not vote for Woodrow Wilson : for President in 1912? That he did not I vote for Boowalter for mayor? That he ! supported the Republican senatorial ticket last fall? Does Mr. Adams dare ; tell us that Professor Howe has been u consistent Republican? “What will Professor Ilowo do In re- | gard to the gas company if he is elected ■ mayor? J. Dorsey Forest, formerly a professor at Butler College. 1r president iof the Citizens Gas Company. For years I there has been a close bond of intimate ! friendship between Professor Howe nnd Mr. Forest. Is It not reasonable to suppose that with Howe as mayor the gas company could go to the public service j commission assured of tile mayor's sympathy and set coopeurtion and not opi position from the city in any effort to obtain an increase in gas rates. ' “Mr. "Robison is himself a college man, a graduate of Hiram College in Ohio. I'll admit he has not Professor Howe's knowledge of the German language, of German institutions and of German 'kultur,' but he has the business ability that Indianapolis needs in the man who is to be the next mayor of Indianapolis.” Professorial decorum, which he has religiously observed so far in the campaign, was forgotten by Professor Howe long enough last night for him to give Indication tbnt the criticism which his rivals, Samuel Lewis Shank and Edward J. Robison, have been heaping upon the eitv administration, whose policies Mr. Howe hopes to continue, has finally upset his dignity. The ice having been broken, it was ex-

Junk Dealers to Report Each Day at Shelbyville

Special to The Times. SHELBYVILLE, Ind., April 21. Provisions to regulate the operation of junk shops and junk yards In the city of Shelbyville are contained in an ordinance passed by the city council to become effective at once. The primary purpose of the ordinance was to satisfy a complaint made by a number of residents in the section of the city where a junk has been located by Zovel Levinsky, a Russian Jew. By the terms of the new ordinance all persons who engage In the Junk business must be licensed, must file a daily report of all purchases and from whom articles were bought aud are forbidden to purchase from minors. The ordinance also provides that no junk yard or junk shop may be located within sixty feet of a residence unless the owner of the real estate consents to the arrangements. A penalty of SIOO will be imposed for violations of the ordinance.

pected that Mr. Howe would enter the scrap in earnest and demonstrate that an ex professor - can muddy up the atmosphere as vigorously as anybody else. Speaking at two meetings on the south side and another at the Savoy Theater in West Indianarolis Mr. Howe took a dig at Mr Shank when he said: “You want things when you need them. You don't want to wake up some morning and find out tho city government has run off and left you over night. \ r ou want responsible government and a responsible mayor. You don’t want a man who is like a runaway horse—liable to run away again." Mr. Robison's attacks upon the methods of the administration of Mayor Charles W. Jewett In conducting the public service departments and Mr. Robison's proposal that the city asphalt plant be scrapped drew from Mr. Howe (he statement: “If a man is a good business man and puts on the bill boards that Indianapolis needs a business man for mayor, why can not he take this plant aud operate it efficiently and at a saving to the people?" In a speech to the employes of the Insley Iron Company at noon today, Professor Ilona stated he was not asking the voters to do something for him, but was urging them to do the right thing for their city by making suro that a competent man is nominated for mayor in the primary May 3. The candidate asked that the records 'of every candidate be gone Into, “not only for the last year or two, but for twentyfive years. Bee who their associates have been, what kind of tnen they have been hitched up with, and what their intimate history is. When a man comes out for public office the voters have a right to know everything about him. If you will study the qualifications of all the candidates you will be able to go to the polls and make an intelligent choice, because by their past records you can Judge a man's ability and tell what he will do as your representative and agent." Mr Ilowo discussed the tax question and said the deficit which resulted from tho loss of liquor license fees would be paid off this year and that he expects a substantial decrease in the levy for next year. WANTS PUBLIC AID AS MAYOR. "I want your help in this race, riot only now, but after the election," Mr. Howe said. “When I am mayor 1 expect to take counsel and advice from every one interested in the problems that come up. 1 want to count on your help when I am on the Job as mayor.” Places and speakers for Howe meetings today were as follows: Noon, insley Iron Company, Mr. Howe; Colo Motor Company, S.

Mr. Robison spoke at three meetings last night and has four scheduled tonight HU last night's meetings were at 218 North Liberty street, Twenty Fourth street and Ashland avenue and Le Grande and Lincoln streets, and his meetings for tonight are at 2400 West Michigan street, 901 Church street. 908 Scioto street and the Denison Hotel. “I want to tell you right now tbnt Indianapolis needs a business man and a man of wide experience for mayor, not ono who has theories or one who will not stay on tho job all tho time," Mr. Robison asserted. “When I am mayor I expect to be on tha job all tho time, cither at tho major's office or out Inspecting the city work and see that the taxpayers receive 100 cents of value for every dollar spent.”

GEORGE LEMAUX, HEAD OF BOARD OFJVORKS, DIES (Continued From Page One.) Mayor Charles W. Jewett when he was appointed a member of the board of public works. When Schuyler A. Haas resigned from the board in 1919 Mayor Jewett promoted Mr. Lemaux to the presidency of the board, in which position he is considered by many persons to hx,e been the most valuable man, from a civic standpoint, in the entire city government. FOUGHT FOR WHAT HE CONSIDERED RIGHT. Being very positive lu his views, Mr. Lemaux was noted for his outspoken way of expressing them. Many times he has differed with the mayor and other members of the administration upon policies of she board, but he aiways held to his view and in many eases by his ability as a two-fisted fighter a-ot what he thought was the right solution of problems. His record as president of the board so commended itself to influential citizens that hundreds urged him to become a candidate for the Republican nomination for mayor'ln the present campaign. For several weeks it appeared- that he would enter the race, but circumstances led him to believe it would be wisest for him to stay out. He cared a great deal for the fair name of Indianapolis and had prepared to spend his old ago here, having erected a beautiful home at 5500 Park avenue, next to that of his son. WAS AN ARDENT BASEBALL FAN. Ills friends have enjoyed telling of the joy he got out of baseball. He was one of the most loyal fans the Indianapolis team had and never failed to boost at a time when he thought he might help win a game for the hon e team. Although his doctors advised against it, he attended (he opening game of the baseball season at Washington Park on April 13. Mayor Charles W, Jewett expressed his personal sorrow and the grief of all who knew Mr. Lemaux in a statement which he issued as follows: “The loss of George Lemaux cannot be estimated. lie was a friend of sterling worth and loyalty. lie was a man of high purpose, splendid ability, honesty and Integrity. His first thought as a public official was for Justice and fair dealing. His services on tha board of public works were of the highest type, lie sacrificed his own persona! business that lie might he of service to tho city of Indianapolis. In the discharge of his duties as chairman of the board of public works he was fearless and courageous and exercised splendid Judgment. I cannot express my personal grief caused by Ills death. Ills worth to tho city as a 100 per cent American citizen and an efficient public servant cannot be estimated. The city has lost ono of its greatest citlzens and his frleuds have lost a real friend.” It I IF. Y ALSO PAYS TRIBUTE TO LEMAUX. Thomas A. Riiey, Democratic member of the board of works, who has worked closely with Mr. Lemaux in many of the board's project*, said : “I have enjoyed Mr. Lemaux's condence all of the time wo have been on the board of public works and ho has revealed to me many plans wt.lcb he did not disclose publicly at the moment for the sake of civic expediency, and In all of those confidences I nev-r detected a single thing which .would not stand the full light of day. The community lias lost ono of its best men. He was an ab solntely honest, fearless, useful public servant nnd we are going to miss him more in the future than we cuu toll today.” NAMES ORPHANS’' HOME BOARD Governor Makes Appointments to Ivnightstown Institution.

Special April Coke Sale! v \ On account of our heavy obligations which mature next month and in the hope of stimulating business at this time, we have named a price on our domestic coke for April shipment which will enable the retail coal dealers of Indianapolis to supply their trade at a price which, under present conditions, is unusually low. WE ARE OFFERING OUR COKE TO THE IN- ‘ DIANAPOLIS TRADE AT A PRICE WHICH IS MORE THAN $2.00 PER TON UNDER THE COST OF THE COAL WHICH GOES INTO IT. Coke is worth more than the coal out of which it is made, for the portion which we take out of it has no practical fuel value to the consumer. It makes smoke and clogs flues. The consumer wants only fixed carbon, and coke made by us is more nearly pure carbon than any coal, except the finest grades of anthracite, which seldom or never come to this market. ! Compare our By-Product Coke with anthracite coal in price; then consider that our coke contains no slate and a much lower per- x centage of any ether impurities than anthracite. Compare our By-Product Coke with the best grades of bituminous coal in price; then consider that our coke contains no volatile matter, which constitutes 20% to 35% of bituminous coal and which has no practical value as domestic fuel. | Now is the time to lay in fuel for next winter, 1 whether you use coal or coke. It can be obtained I now at the most favorable prices. A moderate reI vival of business will create a fuel shortage. Indian- | apolis dealers can now make prompt deliveries. THIS SPECIAL SALE PRICE IS MADE FOR APRIL ONLY. Citizens Gas Company
