I sret together and repeal the county op

tion law. But it contained one pro

vision that did not suit Fleming. It proposed to limit saloons to cities and

incorporated towns and to shut them out of the country districts. This, it

was learned, would put out of business

a good many saloons around the edges

of Fort Wayne, which sell beer man

ufactured by Fleming's brewery, and of

course, Fleming was opposed to this

feature of the bill. It was figured that

under the local option law Allen county would never go dry and that, therefore,

Fleming's suburban saloons would continue in business. But under this proposed law they could not. So Fleming

was safe In opposing this feature of

the Tomlinson bill. For the Suburban Saloon,

It became known that Fleming was suggesting an amendment to the bill

that would provide that saloon might be licensed anywhere within the police limits of a city. Now, the police limits extend to four miles beyond the city

limits of a city, and it was pointed out that this would take in about all of

the suburban saloons around Fort Wayne. But it was said that he would not be able to get the amendment

through, because there would be in

creased opposition from the temperance

people. But the result shows that the senator knows a thing or two about

getting things done. When the Tomlin

son bill came up for amendment at the

afternoon session Schroeder of Evans

vllle, a republican, who announced long

ago that he would vote for the repea

of he county local option bill, proposed

an amendment to permit saloons any

where within the police limits provided

a majority of the voters in that ter

ritory petitions the county commission

ers to grant the licenses

Thl it. u a jHo-ht In line -with the Klem

abovee bJKr doDso!emnlV "swear -g idea. The amendment was adopte

that the above statement is true to the best of my knowledge and belief.

the leaders In the ranks of the temperance democrats, made a sixxllng talk

n which he took his jparty to task for

ndertaking to repeal the county, option

law, a law which he said, the people want to give a fair trial. He pointed to the results of the county option

elections a proof of the popularity of

the law throughout state. Clore, Merriam, Chrlsney made speeches against

the Tomllnson bill. Hostetter, who has

been counted the leader of the antirepealers, made a motion to strike out

section IS of the Tomlinson bill, which Is the section that repeals the county

option law. But his motion failed, the vote being 45 ayes and 51 noes. Kliver

of Lake and Haggard of Tippecanoe county did not vote on this motion. However, both voted earlier in the day

with the wets to send the bill to engrossment.

A Fanny Situation. Of course the republicans, or nearly

all of them, helped the temperance dem

ocrats and pushed along their fight

against the majority of their own party but the real work of the fight was done

by the anti-repealer democrats themselves. It was fun for the republicans to sit there and watch eleven demo

crats ake a poke at their own party organization.

All doubt as to where Representative

Walter Ratliff of Wayne county stood on the liquor question vanished yester

day when, he lined up with the wets and voted with them on every propo

sition. He even voted- with them on

the Kleckner bill. This bill is a straight out repeal of the county op

tion law and substitution of the word

and township local option. There was a divided report from the committee on

that bill and Ratliff voted with the

democrats to advance it to engrossment.

It was said this morning that the

Tomlinson bill may come to a final vote

in the house today, though this is not

certain.

Bill at Third Baae.

The fact that the Sunday baseball

bill was advanced to engrossment in the

senate yesterday. Is taken by some to

mean that it is sure to pass when it

comes up ror the final vote. The vote by which the favorable report . was

adopted was 25 to 18. Seven senators

were absent and it is stated that at

least four of the seven will vote for

the bill.

The Inspection Bill. Senator Volney Bingham of St. Jo

seph county made a stinging charge

yesterday afternoon, when the mer

chants bill for uniform bookkeeping and accounting in public offices was up for passage. The bill as it was presented originally provided for the appointment of a bi-partisan commission which would serve as the state board

of inspection, and that the inspectors

should be appointed by the governor,

each party to have equal representa

tion. . The-purpose was to make it absolutely a non-partisan matter. But

yesterday the bill was amended in the

senate by a strict party vote so as to make the board consist of the governor, the auditor of state and the treasurer of state, with the treasurer of state as the chief inspector. The republicans

oted for this amendment and the dem

ocrats against it. The democrats said

that inasmuch as the offices of the au

ditor of state and the treasurer of state were two that would be inspected under

this law these men should not be mem fcers 9t the board that will do the In

pectlng.

Speakn Out in Meeting.

But it remained for Senator Bing

ham to speak out in the meetin' when

he explained his vote.

'It was charged on the floor of th

enate this forenoon," he said, "that this

bill will create a political machine. Th

republican members have not denied that charge. It stands undented. In

fact it is practically admitted by th

silence of the other side. And as

am opposed to political machines I vot

no on the bill as it is amended."

The amendment of the bill was

disappointment to the Merchants' asso

ciations and Commercial clubs through

out the state who were behind it and

were pushing it through.

It is the plan of the democrats now

to have the house restore the bill

about its original form and send it back

thus amended to the senate. The dem

ocrats say it will then be up to the

republicans to take the blame for de

featlng its purpose.

Paper Sprlnara Surprise.

A sensation was sprung by a local

paper yesterday afternoon with a story

on the first page which purported to se out the acts regarding an alleged com

bination between a lot of senators to

control legislation. The article in ques

tion said that it is, being charged that members of this combination help each other to get through bills In which they are interested, and that other legisla

tion is allowed to drag.

According to this article the combin

ation includes these senators: Wood,

Bland, Cox, Kane and Springer, republicans, and Klstler Stotsenburg, Fleming, Shafer, Proctor and Bingham democrats. Among those who are known

not to be in the combination, according to the story, are Crumpacker, Hal-

leck, Horace Hanna, G. E. Ifanna, re

publicans, and Beal, Grube, McCarty, Long, McCullough and Yarllng, democrats.

Among other things the paper said

this:

The IJat of the Charges. "Charges were made today that there is in the senate a bi-partisan combination with a permanent working agree

ment and that this combination has it

within its power to put any kind of a

bill through, no matter what the na

ture of its provisions. It was charged

also that this combination has a vise

like grip, which when fixed on a bill

of a senator outside the combination

throttles it to death without mercy,

"These charges were made by two senators outside the combination, who

are sufficiently familiar with the work

ings of the clan to know who all the

leaders are and to have a line on most of the subordinates who are either

under the personal influence of the leaders or else believe they must vote

with the leaders in ord to get recog

nltion for their own measures. One senator. It Is known, voted for what he regarded as an iniquitous meas

ure because he believed that unless he did so the combination would kill a

bill which was near to his heart. Tnenty-Seven in lfainr.

"The charges, which are definitely made by two senators, are substantiated by several more from both par

ties, and for some time there has been

talk of a former protest, but the anti

combination men finally concluded that there was no one to -whom they could protest, so they have to grin and bear it. In making the charges they withhold their names because they do not wish to atlr up the enmity of the 1mplacale allies. "The total strength of the combination Is said to be twenty-seven, and on any bill which the combination desire to pass the vote will be twentyseven to twenty-three, provided all of the anti-combination men are opposed. " 'Thia combination," said one sena

tor, " 'has abpolutely no regard for

the welfare of the people, and its work

has become ao bold that even my con

stituents back home have got next

to it simply by reading newspaper reports' of the routine proceedings of the senate. The work of the com

bination is too apparent. Members of

the combination act as though they

had things their own way, and they

do have things their own way. All

they need worry about is getting their

bills out of committee. If they can once get their measures on the floor of

the senate, no matter how iniquitous

or unimportant they are and no mat

ter how much important legislation is

waiting they can get them through.'"

There was a great hustling around

among the senators when the paper

containing the article appeared last

evening, and there has even been talk

of making an investigation into the

facts. Just what the outcome will be no one knows yet.

Provide a Referendum. "The senate passed a Wood bill, mak

ing compulsory the appointment of Do

nee matrons in an cities with more

than 18,000 population.

It is understood that Representative

Hewig of Evansville will today In

troduce a bill to require all applica

tlons for franchises for public utilities

to be submitted to a vote of the peo

ple at a special election. This will

It is said, apply to all ga. water, elec

tric light, steam heat and power com

panies and to street railways.

A bill by benator Orndori was

passed yesterday afternoon by the sen

ate to authorlae county recorders to

make correction of clerical errors in

deeds that are offered for record. It

also passed a bill reulring all recog

niied schools of medicine to be taught

in the Indiana university medical col

lege. The Clark bill requiring the

registration of voters before election was made a special order of business

in the senate for 10:30 a. m. next Tues

day.

Steerina; Committee Busy.

It is said that the democratic steer

ing committee has completed a program

of legislation that will be followed

during the rest of the session, .the pur

pose being to make it agree with the

democratic platform pledges.

On the question of trusts a bill has

already been introduced.

The platform demands an income

tax, and an inheritance tax Is now be fore the house.

A resolution declaring in favor o

the election of United States senators

by the people has been introduced.

A large number of bills relating to

capital and labor are now before both

houses.

A bill for the better enforcement

of the pure food law will be Intro

duced.

Bills cutting off useless offices hav

been introduced.

The platform demands a new prim

ary law, and one will probably be in

troduced today.

A bill to repeal the metropolitan po

lice law is now in both houses.

These are said to be the platform

measures which will receive attentlo

from this steering committee.
