INDIANAPOLIS MAN SHOT DOWN IN KANSAS CITY A. P. Bruner, 521 Arbor Avenue, Brother of Victim, Leaves for Scene. Harry Bruner, 4.3, live stock trader murdered In a Kansas City, Mo., hotel yesterday by Frank Thomson, a speculator, during an argument over one of Thompson’s alleged operations, was the brother of A. P. Bruner, 521 Aroor avenue. Harry Bruner Is well known among local horsemen and stock dealers, having been a trader In live stock in Indianapolis for many years before going WMt. Mr. Bruner received word of his brother’* death in a telegram from Hugh Eckman, partner of Harry Bruner, and he and Mrs. Bruner left for Kansas City last night io take charge of the body. The body will be brought to Indianapolis for funeral and burial. The victim was a bachelor. According to dispatches from Kansas City, Harry Bruner was employed by a Cedar Rapids (Iowa) firm to buy stock in the Kansas City matket. Frank Thompson has been Involved In huge speculations throughout the war period, according to stories from Kansas City. Becoming infuriated while in the argument la the hotel lobby yesterday, according to the dispatches, Thompson whipped out a revolver and shot Bruner and two bystanders. Bruner died .almost instantly and one of the others is probably fatally wounded. After Bruner fell to the floor the enraged man placed hs gun In his victim’s mouth and fired twice more, a Kansas City report says. The Indianapolis brother was one of the staunch suptrters of Mayor Samuel Lewis Shank and he carries with him to Kansas City a letter from the mayor asking the authorities there to aid him in every way possible. HEALTH BOARD RECORD MAKES GOOD SHOWING Proves Indianapolis * Has Better Place to *Live? in 1921. Crime wave and industrial depression to the contrary Indianapolis was a better place to live in in 1921 than in 1920. The word “live” is nsed in its strict sense, too. Health department records are the proof. There gere forty deaths from homicide In twenty-five in 1921, a survey reports for 1921 by C. Tom chief clerk of the board of shows. Homicides include and other deaths caused by Hoienre of one person upon another. Riere were twenty-eight homicides In T 919. The records further show there were fifty-two suicides in 1919, forty-nine In 1920 and forty-one in 1921. Even the automobile was not quite such a deadly aid of the grim walker In 1921. There were twenty-seven deaths from automobile accidents in 1919, forty in 1920 and thirty-nine in 1921. Street cars killed seventeen in 1921, twelve in 1920 and sixteen in 1919, while railroads snuffed out fourteen lives in .1919, twenty-four in 1920 and sixteen in X 921. The records show only six deaths in Indianapolis from acute alcoholism in 1921, but health authorities believe there were more since most doctors, for the sake of the family, prefer to report deaths of this nature for some less disgraceful cause, whenever the fatgl illness warrants stretching a point or two. The total number of deaths in 1921 decreased materially from 1920 while births showed a nice gain. There were 4.037 deaths in 1920 as compared with 4,388 in 1921 and 6,728 births in 1920 and 7,027 in 3921. Loss of life from principal causes are shown as follows:
1921. 1920. Pnlmonary tuberculosis 316 336 Other forms of tuberculosis.... 88 78 Typhoid fever 22 20 Diphtheria and croup ....... 'BS 26 Scarlet fever 19 12 Measles 2 22 Whoopingcough 27 27 Broncho lobar pneumonia 327 86 Diarrhoea and enteritis (under 2 years of age) 106 157 Cerebro spinal fever 4 5 Infantile paralysis 5 1 Influenza 23 194 Childbirth 20 28 Cancer 333 312 External causes 247 256 Smallpox 2 0 Syphilis 275 36 The accurate death and birth rates per 1,000 inhabitants have not been computed. Federation of Labor Aids Eastern Relief The Indiana State Federation of Labor, keenly sympathetic with the work being carried on by Near East Relief in saving the lives of starving babes of the Bible lands, will ask the 800 affiliating organizations of the State to “adopt” one or more orphans wherever funds wiU allow. Headquarters of Near East Relief, 403 City Trust building, has received a strong indorsement of its work from the federation’s executive board, of which T. N. Taylor of Terre Haute is president. A. J. Fritz, secretary of the board, said the federation would start the giving by becoming the “adopted parent” of one orphan. He forwarded a check for S6O to cover the expense of keeping the kiddie alive for one year. Many labor organizations adopted orphans last year. Mr. Fritz Is a member of the State Near East Relief committee. John McFarland, president of the International Typographical Union: W. L. Hutcheson, president of the United Brotherhood of Carpenters and Joiners, and John L. Lewis, president of the United Mine Workers, are members of the national Near East Relief advisory committee.
Police Carry On in Tiger Crusade Two men were arrested late yesterday on charges of operating “blind tigers” as the police continued to carry out Mayor Samuel Lewis Shank's orders to enforce the prohibition law. Charles Argo, 525 Warren avenue, was arrested when police raided his home and found two and a half gallons of “white mule" whisky in a jug and five halfpints. John Isaacs, negro, 1010 North Senate avenue, also was arrested. The police raided his room and found five quarts of beer, thirty-two pints of beer and a half-gallon of “white mule” whisky, they declare. Robbers Take Coats Valued at $20,000 NEWARK. N. J., Jan. 6.—Four thieves early today stole twenty-five far coats, valued at $20,000, from the store of Salis-bury-Jaeobsen & Cos. Three of the men escaped with the loot in an automobile truck.

WILL SPEAK FOR WAR SUFFERERS Eloquent Pulpit Orator to Address Mass Meeting.
OR. NATHAN KRASS. A mass meeting, open to the public, will be held in Tomlinson Hail Monday night, under auspices of the Indiana section of the American Jewish Relief committee for War Sufferers. The principal address for the evening will be by Rabbi Nathan Krass, one of the most eloquent pulpit orators in America. Dr. Krass has made several Investigating trips throughout the famine districts of centra! Europe, and will give eye-witness details of conditions in that part of the world. The meeting Is being held as the preliminary step in Indiana’s campaign for the State's share of the $14,000,000 fund now being raised in this country for the relief of Jewish war sufferers in the famine and pogrom districts. It Is estimated that 300,000 Jewish orphans must be cared for in eastern Europe, to say nothing of the millions of other Jewish sufferers In that continent's famine districts. So great is the distress among Jewish people In that part of the world that the Society of Friends is cooperating with the American Jewish relief committee, and is administering the committee's funds in relieving Jewish orphans in several districts in Russia and the I kralne. There will be no admission charge to the meeting. FINED FOR PASSING STREET CAR. B. E. Jenkins, giving his address as 1030 North Keystone avenue, was fiued $1 and costs In city court yesterday by Delbert O. Wilmeth, city Judge.

MARKET HOUSE CONDITIONS TO BE REMEDIED Dr. Herman Morgan Advises Many Improvements in Sanitation.
The restaurant stands in the city market house should not be permitted to remain in their present condition through another fly-breeding season, Dr. Herman G Morgan, secretary of the board of public health, has Informed the board of public safety. Mayor Samuel Lewis Shank arwounced today. The mayor asked Dr. ife>rgan to tell the board what ought to be done to make the market sanitary. He told them Informally and is putting the suggestions Into wriitng for future action of the safety board. Dr. Morgan told the board that the restaurants should be taken out of their present site In the rear of the first floor of Tomlinson Hall and given new. sanl tary quarters upon a mezzanine floor, such as was included In the plans for remodelling the market house prei>ared by the previous administration. Before the market will be sanitary. Dr. Morgan said, the pools of stagnant water which lie in the alley back of the market house and the wagon loads of refuse which stand there on market days must he eliminated. He recommended an Incinerator to burn refuse. Such a burner Is included in the remodelling plans. I The practice of selling live poultry from 1 coops in the streets adjacent to and inside the market house should be stopped and modern concrete coops, of such construction that they could be flushed out, installed. The market cannot be sanitary until toilets and lavatories are modernized, the health secretary said. Anew comfort station is part of the remodeling plan. The fish market must be sanitized by the Installation of sinks and cleaning troughs of such construction that they | can be thoroughly flushed. As long as the present, ancient and Insanitary type of stands is permitted rats will find fine breeding and living places and so modern stands, set upon posts should be installed so that the whole market could be flushed out with fire 1 hose after market days, Dr. Morgan said. The remodeling plan includes this. Mr. Shank said that the market problem will be given thorough study and remedies found for its evils as soon as possible.

SAYS CH \RITY IS TOO LUMPY Speaker Urges Steady Flow of Relief Work. Instead of providing a superfluity of food for the poor and needy of the city at Christmas time, aid should be spread out over a larger part of the year, Homer Borst of Minneapolis, Minn., associate director of the council of social agencies of Minneapolis, told the board of the Indianapolis Christmas Clearing House Association at a luncheon at the Chamber of Commerce yesterday. Other speakers were Eugene C. Foster, general secretary of the Charity Organization Society, Herbert S. King, president of the association, and Miss Laurel C. Thayer, secretary.
