AUTHORITY IN , CAR REROUTING IS TO BE FIXED Uncertainty in Whether Works Board or Council Has Powers. CONFERENCE PLANNED

Definite determination of whether the public service commission or the board of public works of the city of Indianapolis will haTe control over rerouting, and other such service conditions of the Indianapolis Street Railway Company after the company surrenders its franchise, will be sought by the board. President H. Miller announced today. Announcement that the public service commission and the city council will conduct an investigation preliminary to the rerouting of street cars in the downtown district and the realisation that hundreds of other matters involving the point of who is in control will come up as soon as the franchises of not ony the Street Railway Company but other utilities are given up under the new State law to become effective when promulgated by Governor Warren T. McCray, caused the decision to have the problem settled, Mr. Miller said. ‘•We are going to take np with the public service commission the question of to what extent they are going to assume control over the utilities of the city of Indianapolis,” read a statement which Mr. Miller dictated. “Heretofore it has been the understanding that the board of public works has jurisdiction over extensions, rerouting and service conditions. We believe there should be no conflict of authority in this matter and we will seek to have an understanding." CLAIMS COIN'CIL HAS TSO AUTHORITY. Members of the board expressed surprise that the city council had been asked by the public service commission to participate In the re-routing scheme, since it has generally been understood heretofore that the council had no power whatever to change the routing, this right having been given exclusively to the board of works by the franchise. At the conference of the city council with the public service commission last ; Friday night Corporation Counsel Samuel Ashby advised that after the street rail- \ way company surrenders its franchise the council. Instead of the board of works, ! will represent the city In dealings with Utilities. Members of the board of works hold the opinion that under the new law they ; will continue to have original jurisdiction over the utilities, but the service cor- 1 poratlons will have the added right tc appeal to the public service commission In case they do not like orders issued by the board. It is pointed out it would be practically impossible for the council o*. the public service commission to take over the duties incident to regulation service conditions now exercised by board of works, since every week thtre are dozens of minor orders issued, such as permits to use poles and to cut into pavements in order to lay cables or pipes. MB' BOARD MEMBER TAKES SEAT. Richard A. Shirley, new Democratic member of the board of public works qualified and took his chair for the first time today.' His appointment was announced by Mayor Charles W. Jewett last week. Following a conference with officials of the Indianapolis Water Company the board announced the company has laid 19,294 feet of mains this year, which is more than has been put in in the same time within the past eight years The company has an agreement with the hoard to lay 100.000 feet per year. Charles Ambrose, assistant superintendent of the municipal garage, was promoted to superintendent when the resignation of Superintendent Herbert H. Wasson was accepted. Mr. Wasson will take a position with the local branch of the Mack International Motor Company. Ebert Oltman. a mechanic at the municipal garage, was promoted to assistant superintendent. The salary of the superintendent is $2,300 per year. TENTH STREET SEWER GOES BEGGING.

MARION DEFEATS COMMISSION PLAN Special to The Time*. MARION, Ind., June I.—A special election held in this city Tuesday, the fl.*st to be held in the State under the Knapp law, to decide on the question of toe adoption of the city-manager form ff government, decided against a change by an overwhelming majority. The total vote of 7,334 ballots tallied 5.745 against the proposition, with only 1,589 In Its favor. The vote was several thousand short of the total vote of the city.

The failure of the city-manager plan to carry will necessitate the holding of a primary election for the nomination of city effleers to be elected In November.

JESUITS RETURN TO SOUTH SEA TOKIO, June I.—Spanish missionaries return to a field they lost at the end of the Rpanlsh-American War. when eighteen Jesuits arrive this . month In Ponape, chief of the group of the South Sea islands. They succeed German Catholic missionaries displaced when the Empire of Japan was awarded the mandate over the South Sea Islands at the peace table In Versailles, and they will resume the work of other Spanish priests and lay workers, who were forced to temporarily suspend their labors in the South Sea field in 1899. Far removed from the centers o? Christian civilization, In a land where tropical disease and climatic renditions unite to make life unpleasant, these eighteen Jesuits, nine priests and nine lay workers, go to Ponape as special emissaries of Pope Benedict, chosen, despite the difficulty of their field and the almost certain knowledge that they will never return to Europe, from scores of applicants. It was one hnndred and thirty years ago that the Jesuit Fathers from Europe first established Catholic missions in the South Sea islands. Few Catholic communities at that time knew much about the South Sea islands or the great field for labor among the natives there. The natives knew only a tonch of the western civilization: they talked no language save a native lingo that was hard to master. no matter how diligent were the students. The first of the Jesuits labored well with their subjects In the newly opened field and when the Spanish American war began there were Catholic schools and churches in the islands and a great field of people ready to understand the religion of the western people*. Then came the treaty which ended the war between Amerlea and Spain and German Catholics were assigned to the work then being conducted by missionaries from Spain. Priests and lay workers were sent there as the representatives of Pope Leo, and many of tho new converts took up n study of lh German language, giving np the Spanish which had been a part of their regular courses. In the twenty-two years the natives who knew Spanish became fewer and fewer, until today It Is said htat few save the oldest Catholic converts can speak the language of the newcoming priest*. The work of the German missionaries continjed until one year ago. when Japan, anxious to have the work of civilization continued, asked Pope Benedict to send other workers to Ponape and the South Sen centers where 50.000 Catholics were Interested In keeping the work of that religion going forward. “There is no feeling of triumph on our part,” said Father Castro, who sailed from Y'okohama recently with three of his brethren, the last group of Spanish Catholics to go to the islands. “While we are replacing the German fathers, and at the same time returning to a field which was ours twenty-two years ago, we are going primarily to continue the good work which has been going on In the islands for 130 years now, and we are proud that we were chosen from *o many applicants In Spain to take up so responsible a work.” The last of eighteen missionaries from Spain were guests of the Jochl College Catholic School In Tokio for one month, while they waited for a ship to take them into the tropical land which will be their home, very probably for the remainder of their lives.

I heard a shot and saw Benny stagger down the hill. That's all I know." Elsie was to have testified that her brother told her that Cecil had shot him.

The witness, under severe cross-examination -by Attorney W. J. Reed, refused to admit the shooting was an accident, but Insisted that the two boys had had quarrels and that there was bad feeling between them. An Important point yielded by Attorney Reed's questioning, however, was that Burkt' did not deliberately point the gun at hi playmate, but that It went off while being held In a less conspicuous position. The Sherman boy was on the stand thirty minutes.

Weak, Thin Folks M d Phosphate Says Dr. Kolle

Dr. Frederic S. Kolle, the New York author of medical text books, whose opinions are greatly valued, writes: “When the nerve tissue begins to lose Its vitality, woman begins to lose her youth and vlvaolousness She becomes irritable, moody and despondent. It would be a godsend if more weak, thin, nervous men and women were aware of the efficacy of Bitro-Phos-phate.” Thousands of thin, run-down people whose nervous energy is nearly exhausted are turning to Bitro-Phosphate as dispensed by Haags Drug Stores and other leading druggists, because it helps to re-vltalize the nerves, Increase bodily weight and bring back energy and mental keenness.
