READ MINUTES FIRST TIME IN YEARS.

Councilman Bartel, of the "Show Me Club," was "shown" last evening at the council meeting. At council two weegs ago, Mr. Bartel wanted to know where the money in th3 municipal light fund was kept, if it was drawing an interest, and some other questions along the same line. No one was in a position to answer him, so City Treasurer Tennis was ordered to make a report at the meeting which was held last night. This report was not forthcoming, but Mr. Tennis stated that he would have an Itemized report at the next cession. For the benefit of Mr. Bartel he was told that the money was kept at the Union National Bank.but that was all the information supplied him. Mr. Bartel also caused another sensation last evening by asking for tha reading of the minutes of the last council meeting. According to Fred Krone, this is the first time such a request has been made for the past nine years.

ONE SALOON KEEPER CALM Sells in Indiana on Week Days; in Illinois on Sunday Is on State Line. Palladium Special. Hammond, Ind., June 18. The saloon keepers kept "tab" on the variou lines of business which failed to observe the Sunday law against work of all kinds yesterday, and this afternoon the preparation of complaints began. The prosecution will be under that clause which reads: "No man shall pursue his usual avocation on Sunday." The saloon keepers themselves are not a unit on this system of retaliation because of the prohibition against the sale of intoxicants on Sunday, and it Is not yet known whether the prosecution will be to the, bitter end. One saloon keeper remains undisturbed. His saloon building spans the State line, which divides Hammond and West Hammond. During week days he does business in the Indiana end of his building and on Sundays he moves to the other end, which projects into Illinois. So far he has been undisturbed.

WANT TO PURCHASE lAREAHUiS" Committee Appointed by Art Association Made Its Selection Yesterday.

PICTURE IS BY OHIO MAN M. H. WALCOTT, THE- ARTIST, VALUES IT AT $1,000, BUT THE COMMITTEE HOPES TO BUY IT FOR REID FUND FOR $500. If satisfactory arangements can be made with the artist who painted and who now owns the painting, "Hare and Hounds," on display at the Art Exhibit, the Richmond Art Association will buy the picture and add it to the permanent collection as the 1906 gift of Mr. Daniel G. Reid. The committee to make the selection met yesterday and after much deliberation, decided upon this painting, which is hung in the Superintendent's office, as the most beautiful within the reach of the Association. With one exception, every member Qf the committee voted to buy "Hare and Hounds." This work was painted by H. M. Walcott, of Newark. Ohio, and during the course of the exhibit, it has received much favorable comment. It is valued at $1,000, but it is hoped by the members of the Association to secure it for $500. the amount of Mr. Reid's gift. A letter was sent to Mr. Walcott last night, asking him to sell the painting at the price offered, and to wire a reply at once. This reply will be submitted as a report to the Association on Wednesday evening, by the members of the purchasing committee. The artist, Mr. Walcott. is a member of the Society of American Artists and an associate member of the National Academy of Design. His pictures have won many prizes and he Is represented in the art collections of H. C. Frick, Samuel T. Shaw, Thomas R. Proctor, John Wanamaker, and In many Art Museums. The painting is that of a typical scene that of children playing out-of-doors, and is considered by many to be second to none of the pictures on exhibition. One of the members of the committee voted for another painting, "The Dutchman." This is a much larger canvas than the other selection of the committee, but if $500 will not buy the "Hare and Hounds," "The Dutchman" will be substituted. This picture was painted by Thomas P. Anshutz, of Fort Washington, Pa. LEADERS FEAR A VOTE OF CENSORE Those Who Sway Legislation Yield to Demand for Strong Pure Food Bill. LITTLE TIME NOW LEFT MEASURE THAT THE PUBLIC DEMANDS TO BE PASSED IS STILL IN DANGER OF THE SLAUGHTERING KNIFE. Publishers' Press Indianapolis, Ind., June 18. A special dispatch from Washington says: House leaders are gradually backing away from their determination not to pass an adequate meat inspection law and a pure food bill. Roosevelt, backed by public sentiment, is bringing about the change. In a dignified but effective way the House committee on agriculture backed down on the meat inspection legislation today. As soon as the agricultural bill had been recommitted, Chairman Wadsworth, accompanied by members of his committee, set out to find just what will satisfy the president. At last the pure food bill has been labeled "Must." Yielding to pressure from in and out of Congress, some of it exerted by the president himself, the House organization has consented that both the immigration bill and the pure food bill shall be considered at this session, and has promised special rules to insure the passage of both measures. In Dread of a Caucus. This has been done to avoid a caucus of the Republicans of the House, at which there might be danger that the organization's course would be subjected to a vote of censure. Plans for the caucus have now been arranged.. In spite of the organization's surrender, it is extremely doubtful whether the two bills can become laws at this session. The pure food bill is especially on the danger line of failure because of the differences of opinion between Senate and House. The president, it is understood, has written letters to the Speaker urging the passage of both the measures, but urging especially the passage of the immigration bill. The friends of the food bill are now alert in an effort to force the House to reject the bad amendments agreed to by the House committee on interstate and foreign commerce. Had a Rehearsaf.
