Indianapolis, Feb., 2, (Spl.) Before the oral inquiry of the state into the

affairs of the State Life Insurance company was two hours old, the fact had been established that A. M. Sweeney and W. S. Wynn, president

and secretary, respectively, of the in

surance company, contributed during

tiie legislative session of 1899, $2,92 j for the passage of the legal reserve law, without knowing how the money was to be spent. These amounts appear on the company's books as charged to "attorneys' fees." The officers said that they thought that the money was to be spent for lobbyists and attorneys fees, and that they thought the money was expended for these purposes, but that they did not know how it was spent, a3 no accounting was ever made by Col. Charles Kahlo and Charles II. Hernley, who received and disbursed the money.

Questions were asked by James W. Xoel, who conducted the inquiry for the state, concerning the expenditure of an additional $315, but light was not thrown on this, as neither Sweeney nor Wynn knew who ordered the disbursement or who got the money. Of the $2,925 admitted to have been spent, $2,700 went to Kahlo and $225 to Hernley.

A big sign at either end of the Doran bridge, which proclaims : it is a punishable offence to drive across that structure at a gait faster than a walk.

OVER-j0f tne rjvers wno have occasion to

use the bridge heed the warning. Yesterday a gang of men who are stringing cable for the Home Telephone company, were working on top of the structure, and as a result of the shaking of the bridge because of fast driving, several of them came very near falling. They finally called at police headquarters and made complaint. A patrolman was stationed at the bridge,

and from that time on vehicles moved

like they were in a funeral procession.

Notice of the formation t "The American Railway Clearing House located In Chicago, has been received at the Pennsylvania offices in this city. The voluntary association of several western railroads into the Car Efficiency Bureau, the former name for the new association, will make it possible for a more systematic and efficient freight service between all the western roads, in that a car pool or pools will be maintained and each road will have the opportunity of drawing on this pool as service de

mands. Among the eastern roads running into Chicago who have identified themselves with the new movement are the Pennsylvania, New York Central and the Erie roads. These three roads although having almost twice, the number of freight cars as the western roads in the pool, have such a large number of foreign lines that it has been impossible for them in all cases to furnish enough cars for their growing business. The clearing house will keep all freight statistics and clearing house records and will have charge of the administration of the smaller freight car pools throughout the wesL The clearing house will divide the larger pools into three classes. One composed of box cars,

gondolas and coal cars. Each railroad

in the association will contribute a

certain number of cars to the pool, and in case the freight conditions on any one road becomes demoralized, a greater number of cars can be drawn from the pool than the railroad actually put in. In speaking of the new scheme a Richmond man and an old railroader said yesterday lhat the new clearing house would be one of the best ventures that the big and little roads of the west could have become identified with, and would tend greatly to give the shipping interests of the middle west a better service.

Elmer Gormon who Is now in the government service was here the past week on a short visit to his relatives. Mr. Gormon is at the present time busily engaged in the land fraud exposures In the Northwest. He is lo

cated at Boise, Idaho and has played a prominent part In bringing many of the prominent swindlers to justice. Perhaps his best catch was the arrest of S. A. D. Puter at Chicago. Puter is known as "the Land Fraud King." He was taken in at Chicago while in company with Emma Watson, also a notorious swindler. At the time they were stopping at a high class boarding house. They were taken to Portland, Oreg., where Puter gave bond and jumped it. The secret service men, however, were then well on Puter's trail and it was not long until he was re-arrested only to get away from "Billy" Burns in New York City. A third arrest followed and nt Portland. Puter was sent to the penitentiary. Puter Is now in the midst of work on a book which he will issue, exposing much land graft. It is said that a number of wealthy men will be handled with a free lance and their connection with the infamous robbery laid bare. Puter has secured a stenographer and is dictating his book in his cell.
