JAPANESE PLAN FOR WOOD’S VISIT Expected to Be Guest of Government in Tokio. TOKIO, May 20.—Viscount Kentaro Kaneko, president of the American-Japan Society of Tokio, and a member of the Japanese privy council, today announced some of the plans that are being made for the entertainment of General Leonard Wood by the Japanese government. General Wood and bis party, now 5n the Philippines, are expected to spend several weeks in Japan, probably in the late summer. While the general has not accepted an invitation, which, it is said, will be tendered him by the Japanese government to be the guest of the latter while he is in Tokio, it is possible that be will do so, at least for a time during his visit. The usual round of official enter-aining would be given for the general If such Invitation were extended and accepted. Regardless of whether General Wood is the guest of the Government, American organizations and various diplomatic bodies will entertain for him. The Amer-ican-Japan Society banquet will be held either at the Bankers’ Club or the Imperial Hotel, Viscount Kaneko taid. He expects to meet General Wood when the latter arrives at Yokohama, and has already written the general asking to be advised when his party leaves the Philippines. CoL Charles Burnett, military at'ache of the America embassy, likely w‘i‘ be personal host to General Wood during a great deal of the time the general Is in Tokio. Edward Bell, American charge d'affaires, also will entertain for the Wood party a' the American embassy.

CAN YOU BEAT THIS FOR ‘LOVE’? I Contract Marriage' Bans Motherhood—Wife Works Her Way. CHICAGO, May 20.—A “contract marriage," which banned motherhood, was revealed here today when Mrs. Mary Reisenhus brought suit for separate maintenance against James Arthur Reisenhus, Harvard graduate and wealthy glove manufacturer. Mrs. Reisenhus charged her husband compelled her to pay board and to work for him making gloves. This unusual connubial situation, she complained, was the result of an antenuptial contract, drawn by a lawyer, which Reisenhus compelled her to sign before their wedding. They were married the next day, June 2, 1917. The contract placed the husband under no obligation to support her, Mrs. Reisenhus alleged. She said they lived in separate rooms at the home of Reisenhus' wealthy parents, where she was compelled to pay board, ‘rent and to support herself. Her Income, she said, was derived from making gloves for her husband’s factory. She charged Reisenhus subtracted 10 per cent from the usual glove maker's wages for his' services in bringing her raw materials and returning the finished gloves. Once, the wife avers, Reisenhus fixed some boards in her room and he charged her $1 50 for his labor. She also charged that the contract gave him the right to desert her in event she became a mother. The case will be tried later.

INDIANA DAILY TIMES, FRIDAY, MAY 20,1921.

SAFETY BOARD TELLS FINDINGS . ON SUNDAY FIRE (Continued From Page One.) new order relative to the use of pumpers is in effect, this will not reoccur. GENERAL ORDER OF FIRE CHIEF. The general order of Chief Loucks directing the new method of connecting hose is as follows: ‘‘The first company arriving at a fire where a water line is needed will lay out from the hydrant nearest In the direction of reaching the fire, cut the line, put on the pipe and go to work. The driver as soon as the line is cut will then immediately proceed to the next nearest hydrant and connect up the pumper. The second pumper In will lay out from this pumper, then proceed to the next nearest hydrant and connect up and so on until a sufficient number of lines have been obtained. "Hose companies, unless first company in, will lay out from pumpers. “On fires where the first company is using a chemical tank, the second company will back them up with a water line.” BOX PULLED SEVEN MINUTES LATER. At the time of the fire Chief Loucks wag out of the city and Assistaut Chief Hoyle directed the Investigation, under orders of the board. Chief Hoyle’s report shows that the first notice of the fire at 1230 North New J srsey street was received at 1:15 o'clock Sunday afternoon by telephone at the Gamewell headquarters In tho city hall. Pumper Companies Nos 5 and 16 and Truck Cornpan}' No. 3 were ordered to the fire by the operator. It was not until 1:22 o'clock, seven minutes later, the assistant chief reported, that box No. 135 at Delaware and Thirteen'i street was sounded. Pumper Companies Nos. 7 and 8 and Battalion Chief J. Petty of the Second fire district responded, making six companies and a battalion chief ou duty. At 1:29 o'clock, fourteen minutes after the first alarm Chief Petty ordered two additional wagons and Hose Companies No. 1 and Pumper Companies Nos. 22 and 1 responded, bringing nine companies into action. Chief Hoyle's report shows. “On arrival at the fire my attention was called to tha fire on Central avenue," saya Hoyle's report. “I Immediately called for four additional pumpera and on additional truck to repair to Thirteenth and Central avenue. This was nt 1:85 p. m. Pumpers Nos. 2,6, 11 and 31 and truck 13 were sent. At 1:47 p. in. I called for two additional wagons and one additional truck to report to Thirteenth and Central avenue. Pumpers Nos. 17 and 28 and truck No. 4 were sent. FINDS TWO RESIDENCES BURNING BRISKLY. “On arriving at the Central avenue fire I found the residences at 1228 and 1i.30 Centra] avenue burning, the attics and roofs of each bulidtng being eutirely involved, and the flames lapping over to the roof of the residence at 1222 Central avenue. This roof was an asbestos shingle roof and helped to hold the fire. “There, was no apparatus avallble at this time, and the aid of citizens was asked to mount roofs and use garden hose. This request was responded to by men and boys and was a big factor in stopping the fire. Others w*era requested to patrol the streets for two squares east and south and report any sparks seen on roofs. Charles Miller of the fire prevention bureau and fitaruder Glazier of tho electrical department took charge or this and reported to mo. “The wind was from the west, changing later to the northwest. In one hour after the apparatus rolled into the Cen-

Says Hir Prescription Has Powerful influence Over Rheumatism Mr. James H. Allen suffered for year* with rheumatism. Many times this terrible disease leit him helpless and unable to work. Be finally decided, after years of ceaseless study, that no one -an be free from rheumatism until the si-cumulated Impurities, commonly called uric sold deposits, were dissolved In the joints and muscles and expelled from the body. Whh this Idea in mind he consulted physicians, made experiments and dually compounded a proscription that quickly and completely banished every sign and symptom of rheumatism from his system. He freely gave his discovery to others who took It, with what might be called marvelous success. After years of urging he decided to let sufferers everywhere know abort hla discovery through Ibe newspapers. The Haag Drug Cos. has been appointed agent for Alienrhu In this vicinity with the understanding that he will freely return the purchase money or. the first two bottles to all who state received no benefit.—Advertisement

tral avenue fire it was under control. Four hydrant an*’', three pumper streams were used on the Central avenue fire. The pumpers were placed on the long lines. Water pressure on the other lines was good. Pumper No. 17 was not used at this fire and was sent back to headquarters to fill In.” REPORTS OF OTIIER OFFICERS VARY. Reports of several other officers vary on the matter of water pressure. Battalion Chief Petty said: “Water pressure as good as common for that district, purely resident, a vast lumber yard, mostly shingle roofs, a bad day for that district, dry roofs and a stiff west wind.” Lieut. W. B. Geizendanner of Engine Company No. 1 reported: “Fire pressure fair.” “Had fair pressure. Our pumps were not used,” reported Lieut. B. G. Cronley of Pumper Company No. 8. Walter J. Wiley, a private of Pumper Company No. 7, in charg eof the company while Capt. Fred Kennedy was out to dinner, said: ‘Water pressure was fair. Water reached to gutter of two and half story house.” While a ladder was being ratsed to the roof of 1228 North New Jersey street, Captain Wiley L. Osborn of Truck Company No. 11 reported he met Captain John Monaghan of Pumper Company No. 5 “Vito said water pressure was too low to reach roofs.” The third unit to reach the fire, Truck Company No. 3, according to Captain John P. Fox’s report, found it necessary to take some of Us ladders down to keep them from burning up. “The water pressure was low,” he repelled. EXAMPLES OF CONFUSION FOUND IN REPORTS. Examples of the confusion which prevailed are contained in an incident reported by both Captain Fox and Captain Clarence W. Miller of Pumper Company No. 16. Captain Fox reported that “when we stopped at fire we left truck's rear wheel on fire hose for about a minute. I don't think it affected the water pressure any.” It was one of Captain Mi'.ler's lines that pumper No. 16 stopped upon. Captain Miller said In his report that he ran Into a house across the street from where his apparatus was stopped and tried to use the telephone. Then he ran out and ordered Renztl Williams to pull box 131. “As I came out of the bouse fire truck No. 3, from No. 5 engine company, came up and stopped on Company 16’s line of hose and stopped the water from coming through the line of hose," says Captain Miller. I ran out to driver and asked him to move off of hose, which driver did at once and ran truck on line of hose the second time and was ordered off." SAYS FIRE PLUG IN BAD CONDITION. Captain Miller cites another misfortune which befell his compauy in the fact that when he Went to the fire plug at New’ Jersey and Thirteenth streets to find out why Fireman Allen was slow in making a hose coupling he found “the outlet” cap to the plug was twisted and cap and chain corodel with paint, which prevented him fro i making attachment with hose to plug quicker. By that time fire had spread to No. R 132 New Jersey street and seeing fire spreading to house south of 122S I ordered Renzll Williams to take pumper and attach to plug at Eleventh and New Jersey and stop fire from spreading south to other buildings. By that time the chief had arrived and I noticed the increased pressure in my line. Thinking that I had high enough pressure that was needed at that time with direct pressure from wa-

Fuel Economy Price Is not the only consideration in buying fuel. Efficiency, convenience and cleanliness may be more Important than a low price. But price considerations are important, and from this point of view By-Product Coke is clearly the economical fuel. By Product Coke Is primarily In competition with Anthracite Coal. Anthracite Coal at lta best Is no more efficient—ton for ton—than good By-Product Coke. The latter is more efficient than most anthracite coal because it Is lower In ash and entirely free from stones and large pieces of slate —therefore, contains a higher percentage of fixed carbon which is the real fuel which consumers buy. Anthracite Coal is offered at sls per ton. At this price, as compared with the cost of By-Product Coke, Anthracite Coal Is 27% more expensive than By-Product Coke—assuming that, only the best and cleanest coal is bought. In proportion as ash and slate in the coal exceed Impurities in the coke, the latter becomes still more economical. We cannot dictate re-sale prices for our products, hut we are advised by the following dealers that they will offer our coke during the month of May at prices not exceeding—

ter without putting automatic pumper to work unless by order of the chief. I was satisfied there was enough pressure at that time.” WHY OTHER PUMPER SLOW GETTING STARTED. Captain Monaghan of pumper company No. 5 also failed to put his pumper to work immediately and he gives an explanation for this in his report as follows : “When we arrived the No. 16 pumper was laid out from Thirteenth street and we went to Twelfth street and laid out. We had to lay back to the fire. I took it on myself to call help. I called oper"tor Frank Owens and told him who I v/as and to send help. He said, ‘I will pull Box 135,’ and 1 said that was all right. The box came in at 1:22 p. m., seven minutes after we left for the fire. “I went to our company, they were up in the attic of the house where the fire started. 1 saw that the water pressure was weak, but knew that the box was pulled, and expected plenty of pressure every second, which is generally given when the box is pulled. The house north of us was on lire and the 16s were working on it. “T 1 e reason I did not put the pumper to work, I expected plenty of pressure when the box was pulled and I only had one man that I could depend on, that was Bert Unversaw, who could put the pumper to work; the other men were new and substitutes. “Herbert Wald was anew man; been In a month and a half; the others were substitutes. Vernon Hudson and Ernest Fox, both appointed May 7, and had never worked on a fire and were no benefit In an emergency. Lieutenant Mulveliill at meals. Otto Rugenstein, ‘ day off; Guy Heckman, day off. Harry Marshall, vacation. "I expected plenty of pressure every second or before I could take our hose down to the street and connect our pumper for a man could not live In that attic without a stream, so we were in bad shape to handle a line of hose and put a pumper to work at the same time with only one man that you could depend on. SAYS NO DECREASE IN DOMESTIC PRESSCRJE. When asked in regard to the statement of the board that the water company had allowed its pressure, known as “domestic” pressure, U> decrease recently, C. L. Kirk, vice president and general manager of the company, said: “We are at the present time carrying fifty-five pounds pressure at the Riverside pumping station throughout the day and fifty pounds from 11 p. m. to 4 a. m., the lower night pressure being due to the lighter use of the water during those hours. This pressure, known a* ‘domestic’ pressure, is entirely distinct from what is known as fire pressure. “There has been no decrease in this domestic pressure at the Riverside pumping station since 1915, when the Fall creek pumping station was put into service. Prior to the use of the Fall creek station, which supplies Brightwood. Irvington, Beech Grove and part of the eastern section of the city, a higher pressure than at rresent was maintained at the Riverside pumping station and consequently throughout the city, in order to deliver w’ater at Irvington and these higher parts of the city, Irvington being on a level with the eighth floor of the Odd Fellow Building.” RESULT OF 8.
