TAX FERRET CASE IS BEGUN AT LAST First Evidence Heard in Suit of Fremont Clifford vs. The City. HEARING AT GREENFIELD PLAINTIFF , INTRODUCED HIS WITNESSES YESTERDAY AND DEFENDANT MAY CONCLUDE TESTIMONY TODAY. The case of Freemont Clifford, tax ferret, against the city of Richmond for the fulfillment of contract, was called yesterday in the Hancock county circuit court before Judge Vestal, of Noblesville, special Judge. The city's Interests are being looked after by City Attorney Gardner and Attorney William H. Kelley, the latter having been In charge of the work of preparing the city's defense to Clifford action. The demands of Clifford approximate $2,000 and are the outgrowth of certain sequestered taxable property which it is averred by the plaintiff that he placed on the city tax duplicate and for which ' service he alleges fees are still due him. The city has made the contention that Clifford Is not entitled to fees In the cases cited as the taxes were collected through the work of other tax experts who have already been paid their fee. At one time the city offered to make a compromise settlmnt with Clifford in order to avoid the costs of litigation. An offer of $500 was made but this was declined. t .Yesterday the plaintiff presented testimony to the court and jury In an attempt to substantiate the claims set forth In the complaint. The plalniff's side was closed and the city introduced several witnesses before adjournment. Attorney Kelley said lasft night that It was likely the city would conclude Its testimony today.

Those Promoting Celebration Ask Council to Appropriate $10,000. THE MAYOR'S SUGGESTION HE THINKS THAT THE MONEY SHOULD BE VOTED AT A SPECIAL ELECTION HELD FOR THAT PURPOSE. The cuestlon of whether or not the city should make an appropriation to cover the expenses of the Centennial celebration of this city was up before Council last evening, being discussed by the mayor, and Councilmen O'Neal and Deuker. It was agreed that the city should take an interest in the Centennial and aid It as much as is possible, within the limit of the law. An appropriation of about $10,000 is needed to cover the necessary expenses, but for the Council to abruptly give this money without knowing exactly the views of the people would be going against the statutes. Mayor Zimmerman, who is on the committee in charge of the finances of the Centennial, suggested that while it is illegal for the city council to make an appropriation, a mass meeting of citizens should be held and the sense of the meeting ascertained, if it be in favor of or again3t the appropriation. If in favor of the appropriation, the -citizens must express themselves as being in favor of an extra assessment on the tax duplicate of the city. A vote can then be taken., having two or three voting places, at a small expense, and in this way, the voice of the tax payers can be determined. An appropriation of $10,000 would make but a small amount for each citizen to pay, Dr. Zimmerman said, while on the other hand, if the appropriation Is voted down, the Centennial will probably not be a success owing to the fact that $10,000 is a large amount of money to be raised by subscription In a city the size of Richmond, for such a purpose. No action was taken on this matter, it being deferred until a later date. WERE VIOLENTLY SICK POISONED BY FOOD STUFF Mrs. John C. Bayer, Daughter, Miss Edna and Domestic at Their Home, Were Made Sick by Tyrotoxicon Poisoning at Dinner. Mrs. John C. Bayer, daughter, Miss Edna, and. a domestic employed at their home, were taken violently sick shortly after dinner yesterday as a result of tyrotoxicon poisoning caused by. a combination of food stuffs which they had eaten. For a short time they were very sick and physicians were called. There was nothing wrong with any of the food itself, which the effected persons ate, but the physicians say that it was one of the peculiarly unaccountable results of poisoning which comes from combining harmless foods. The other members of the family who also ate from the same table as those who were poisoned, were not affected in the least. Much alarm was felt for a time at the Bayer home, as the sick persons were painfully sick for a few hours. British Victory Reported. Publishers Press London, May 8.
