Fact Apparent at Indianapolis That Two Candidates Are in Lead in Indiana in Big Sensational Fight.

KERN SEEfilS 10 HOLD THE EDGE

Still Lacks Votes Enough, However,

of Carrying Him Through the Caucus and His Followers Are Still on Trial for Votes to Come on the Break.

(Special to The Times.) Indianapolis, Ind., Dee. 7. As the days ko by and the time draws near the democrats of the legislature to make up their minds as to whom they will select for United States senator, the - fact becomes more and more apparent that at the finish there will be jnst two candidates, John W. Kern of this city and L. Ert Slack of Franklin. Everybody that is not for Ivern will be for Slack when the final test comes. The rest of the candidates do not like to hear this and their friends talk against it, but if they do not see the situation in that light it is because they are not looking straight ahead. Kern Best . of Fteht. There can be no doubt but that Kern has the best of the fight thus far. In many of the counties of the state the democratic county committees have adopted resolutions favoring him for senator, and democratic newspapers in sixty cities and towns have published editorials in his favor. And reports come from many places to the effect that the rank and file of the party is

for him. And he has Tom Taggarfs I jn

backing, all of which is worth some

thing. With these elements and these influences back of him "Kern Is" In the best position of any of the candidates for senator. But he still lacks votes of having enough, to carry him through the democratic caucus. The Kern followers themselves admit this, and they are still on the trail, trying to line up more members for the legislature to vote for him. Counting Egg Before Hatching. . But it is believed thaf Kern and his friends are figuring on some votes that he will not get. Some of them are bound to go to Slack. For Instance, Kern Is counting on three votes In the Twelfth district when the break comes and that district pulls away from Edward C. Hoffman of Fort Wayne. There Is not reason to believe that Kern will get even one vote from that district.

This is based on the belief that if Steve Fleming, senator from Allen

county, is able to control the vote of the Twelfth for Hoffman, and there is no Boubt that he is. he will also be

able to deliver the votes to some oth

er candidate when the break comes. If this is the case it is a cinch that Fleming will not deliver any of these votes to Kern, whom he hates most cordially. So Mr. Kern can expect cold comfort from that section of the state. Story About Fleming Started. A story was started here today to the effect that because he is a brewer Fleming would probably join the rest of the brewers and come out for Kern at the finish, but there is nothing at present to indicate that he will do anything of the kind. In the fir&t place not all the brewers are for Kern. Crawford Fairbanks Is for John E. Lamb of

Terre Haute for senator. In the next place Fleming dislikes Kern because

Kern prevented his being elected state

chairman some years ago, and In the

second place he also has it in for Taggart, who is supporting Kern quietly, and Fleming now has a chance to take

a whack at Both Kern and Taggart at one time. Those who know Fleming and know what kind of a fighter he is .in politics will not believe that he will allow such an opportunity to pass

without doing something. Politics Makes Strange Bedfellows.

The story that Kern and Slack are to be the two contenders at the windup is- not exactly new, but the devel

opments that prove it true are coming out day by day. It will be a little bit incongruous to see Fleming lined up in the support of Slack, because Flem

ing is a brewer and Slack has all along been a consistent supporter of temperance legislation, but politics makes

strange bedfellows. It is believed that several of the can

didates for speaker of the house do not

expect to be elected. They are in the

race for another purpose. If the present

indications count for anything, and be

fore long there will be developments to

prove that, too. 0

These developments will come in the form of trades and promises. One of the candidates will promise the others

that they shall have certain appoint

ments as chairmen of committees and

return they will get out of the

speakership contest.

New cars and a new terminal for the

Hammend - Sixty-third street cars?

Well!

Better service for the residents of

the Calumet region was the subject of a

conference yesterday afternoon between

President Mitten of the Chicago City Railway company. City Traction Expert Hereley and Aldermen Bihl, Moy-

nlhan and Jones.

It was agreed that on or before April

1 next a change in the terminal of

South Chicago cars will be made so that cars from the Calumet territory will be diverted to a loop beginning

at Sixty-fourth street and extending to

Madison avenue and thence to Sixty-

third street and Stony Island avenue.

From the latter point a return trip

will be made via Stony Island avenue

to the Calumet territory. At the pres

ent time all cars of the old South Chi

cago Street Railroad company have a

terminal between Sixty-third and Sixty-

fourth streets In adlson avenue. The

terminal of the Calumet Electric road

Is at Sixty-third street and Stony Isl

and avenue. The proposed arrangement.

it is declared, will enable passengers

from the Calumet region to make a more close connection with the cars of

the Chicago City Railway company and the trains of the South Side Elevated

Railroad company.

It was further announced at the con

ference that the electric power on trac

tion lines in the .Calumet district has

lately been increased 25 per cent. Twen

ty-four adldtlonal double-truck cars

have been recently put into operation

and eight more of the same type are

promised by Jan. 20. Whether a "T"

rail or a grooved rail will be installed

in the rehabilitation of the Calumet

car lines is still a matter for debate

There are many ways to communicate with a person in a distant town. But the telephone is the quickest, most satisfying and it equals in value a personal visit. CHICAGO TELEPHONE COMPANY

There is no such thing as oyster

juice. Yesterday H. E. Barnard, state

food and drug commissioner, said that no oysters as far west of Baltimore as

Indiana arrived with Juice. By the time they are packed for shipment what

juice is not washed off is but a negli

gible quantity. The people who get lots of Juice with their oysters, says Barnard, are only buying water. This

is profitable to the dealer. Dealers

have been known to pay $1.10 a gallon

for the bivalves and afterward sell them for $1 at a good profit. It's the

old story of "watered stock," says

Barnard. The water also performs an

other friendly office for the dealer it

swells the oysters.

These are things which the people

and dealers are learning all over the

state as a result of a crusade of the state drug and food commissioner to

prevent the icing of oysters by plac

ing the ice in the midst of the oysters.

Th practice is declared by Mr. Barnard and the pure food commission to be

an4 adulteration. It is as bad in the eyes of the pure food commission as

puttlng'ice in milk. Working hand-in

hand with Barnard is A. W. Bruner,

state food and drug Inspector. Bruner

has been all over the state calling the

attention of dealers to the new ruling

of the commission.

The sealed package is being used

for the shipment of Oysters bv nine

teen out of twenty dealers," said Bruner, "since the ruling was made. The sealed package is not very different from the ice cream package in principle. The oysters are packed in bulk and the ice packed outside. The result has been that you hear the people sav

ing on all sides that they are receiving twice as many oysters for 40 cents as

they used to get for 30 cents."

until her mental condition is absolutely

bettered.

The action of the officials of the

state institution in sending the woman away from the hospital without being

cured is beyond the understanding of the local department. Whether her apparent helplessness in speaking the English language had much to do with

her dismissal is not known, but this is believed to have been the true cause, as Mrs. Stipka was as violently insane

when brought home as when taken to Longcllffe six weeks ago. Chief of Police Higgins has written a letter to the chief physician at the hospital, asking

him for a report on the woman's condition, and promises that if Mrs. Stipka is not given the best of care the matter will be reported to the state officials.

Instantaneous Relief for Croup.

Croup can be cured in one minute,

and the remedy is simply alum and

sugar. The way to accomplish the

deed is to take a knife or grater and

Bhave off in small particles about

teaspoonful of alum; then mix with

twice the amount of sugar to make

it palatable, and administer it as soon

as possible.

"The state of Indiana will be afflict

ed with Hanly and Hanlyism for Just thirty-seven days more." This was the

statement that was made by Henry j ,

druggist, bright and early this morn

ing. The peculiar thing about it all is that ever since Governor Hanly ousted Mr. Bicknell from the office of metropolitan police commissioner "Uncle" Henry has been counting the days when he would be out of public life. Of course, Mr. Bicknell is a Watson man, for all good republicans are still Watson men, but he welcomes the administration of Marshall for the reason that it will mark the retirement from public life of Hanly, the hated.
