BOYS NOT FORGOTTEN

Law That Rope* Them in When Caught Smoking the Paper Coffin Nail. JUVENILE COURT THEIR FATE Costly Improvements Projected on Two Railways—Major Menzies for Congress—ltems. Indianapolis, April 21. Boys who smoke cigarettes are no more Immune from the law than formerly, if, indeed, they are as much so, according to Virgil H. Lockwood, acting Judge of the Juvenile court, in the absence of Judge Stubbs. He has called the attention of Chief of Police Kruger to a section .of a new Juvenile court law that covers small offenders completely, he believes. Superintendent Kruger, in commenting on the decision of Judge Whallon, of police court, that the new cigarette law does not apply to smokers of cigarettes, expressed regret that, because of this decision, 1 would be impossible to punish boys who smoke cigarettes. l.»wi That Catches the Boys. Lockwood says that thts would he true, were it not for a new law passed by the recent legislature. This is the law regarding delinquent children. The act enumerates the offenses for which a child shall be deemed, a “delinquent'', and between two semi-colons is this phrase: “Or who smokes cigarettes?’ It provides that any boy under 16 years or any girl under 17 years who who shall commit any of the acts specified shall be proceeded against in the manner provided for the prosecution of persons charged with a misdemeanor and upon conviction thereof may be released on probation or may be dealt with by the court in such manner as may appear to be for the best interest of the child. Police Will Enforce the Law. Under this statute any boy caught smoking a cigarette may be arrested and the officers of the juvenile court expect this law to be enforced. The old law concerning cigarettes merely punished the dealer who sold to minors and boys could not be arrested for smoking. Superintendent Kruger said his attention bad been called to the delinquent child law' and that he had spoken to Deputy Prosecutor Holmes about the matter. He said the law would suffice to prosecute boys under the age of 16 years, but not those over this age. He said he wduld use the law to the best advantage, and instruct the patrolmen accordingly.

810 RAILWAY IMPROVEMENTS .'. * , C. and E. I. and Southern Indiana Planning to Spend a Wad of Money. Terre Haute, Ind., April 21.—Second Vice President and General Manager H. I. Miller, of the Chicago and Eastern Illinois, will expend $1,500,000 that has been appropriated on his recommendation for improvements. The improvements will cover additional telegraph and telephone lines, water softening plants, a large Increase in yard facilities at Chicago and other terminate, thirty miles of third track in addition to the present double track, signal towers, passing sidings. It may be said on authority that the $200,000 now known as Invested by John R. Walsh, of the Southern Indiana, in terminals at Indianapolis, is only the beginning of what will amount to more than a million dollars inside of a year. The blockading of Indiana coal traffic as much as anything else prompted the Southern Indiana to build the Chicago division, which is to be completed by Dec. 1. and which is to be a direct competitor of the Eastern Illinois. Statue of Mrs. Gilbert. New York, April 21.—A movement has been started here to erect a lifesized statue in marble of the late actress, Mrs. J. H. Gilbert.

KAMRANH BAY THE TROUBLE CENTER

Report That Japan Has a Fleet Ready to Send to That Point. ANTI-FRENCH FEELING GROWS Rojestvensky Said To Be Waiting the Arrival of the Third Squadron. Japan Says Nothing to Anybody Except France—Press Continues to Worry—Situation la Full of War Peril. London, April 20. The Dally Telegraph’s correspondent at Toklodeclaree that a Japanese fleet is ready to sail for Kamranh bay. Tokio, April 20.—An official report from Manchurian headquarters says: “A Japanese force advanced toward Tunghus. fifty miles east of Hsincheng, and occupied that place on April 15. The enemy retreated to the north. There has been no change in the situation elsewhere. Tokio, April 20.—Although not reported directly it is believed that the Russian second Pacific squadron continues the occupation of Kamranh bay, or some other port of Annam, where it is expected to remain until joined by the third Russian Pacific squadron. The report that Admiral Rojestvensky Is maintaining a patrol and examining neutral shipping off Kamranh bay increases the Irritation toward France for permitting the use of that port as a base of operations. The Japanese government continues silent regarding the representations on this subject which have been made to France. The press, however, continues its agitation against France, demanding vigorous action. Japan Prepared for Poaalblllllea. Yenkow, April 17, via Tientsin. April 20.—Few transports are now arriving at Newchwang. This contrast with the rush of traffic since the opening of the Liao river indicates that precautions are being taken against possible interference by the Russian Pacific squadron. Vast accumulations of stores have already been made along the Japanese lines of communication, assuring full supplies to the armies in the field, even if the transport service is interrupted. John Bull Is Getting Uneasy. London, April 20.—The British public is only now beginning to realize how much depends on Togo’s skillful conduct of the approaching naval contest. Until Vice Admiral Rojestvensky actually arrived in the straits of Malacca there was a disposition to ridicule the efforts of the Russian squadron; but now that there is seen to be a growing iieklihood of Vice Admiral Nebogatoff Joining Rojestvensky before the fateful struggle opens lukewarm Interest is deepening into anxiety. The possibilities embraced in Rojestvensky making Kamranh bay, a French port, his naval base, are very

serious, for one of them is the addition to the belligerent nations of France on one side and the British empire on,the other. Togo Goes to Give Battle. London, April 20.—Rojestvensky** fleet is still at Kamranh bay and Togo is now on his way to attack him and defy France at the same time. If the Russians are out of. the zone of neutrality France can oppose no objection, and if within French waters neutrality has been violated. Naval authorities see grave menace to Togo in the present state of affairs, which is due entirely to the attitude taken by France. Rojestvensky, it is pointed out, has made Kamranh harbor to all intents a Russian port while waiting the arrival of the third Baltic fleet under Admiral Nebagatoff, which is now nearing Chinese waters. Togo, it is declared, can not afford to await the junction of these two powerful fleets, as in weight of metal he is already overmatched by Rojestvensky. Japs in a Turning Movement. St. Petersburg, April 20.— A dispatch from Gunshu bay says the Russians have discovered a turning movement eighty miles northwest of Kuanchantsu (about thirty miles northeast chengtsu (about thirty miles northeast of 3,000 Chinese bandits, several thousand Japanese cavalry and twenty-two guns. Kuanchengtsu is identical with Changchun, the extreme right of General Llnevitch’s main front, which extends thence towards Kirin.
