The expediting of the empress's arrival was. It '.s understood, planned by the police, who have taken stringent precautions for her protection. While the officials of Scotland Yard have little fear that the anarchists in London will endanger their chances of obtaining an asylum In England by any attempt on the life of the empress, they are taking no chances and every possible avenue of attack will be guarded.

The structure nas one of the oldest in the city and th fire spread with slow deliberation duijig the first thirty minutes. Several guests, mostly night workers, who had not left their rooms, had narrow escapes. DAY WILL BE OBSERVED Memory of 3t. Patrick to Be Revered by Local Order of Hibernians on March 17. t.

Government Officers are Baffled In Their Efforts to Capture the Robbers of the Sub TreasuryProbable More than $173,000 Was Taken.

Washington, D. C. .Mffrch 7. The government is almost ready to throw up its hands In the Chicago sub-treasury shortage and to declare itself ab solutely defeated in Its efforts to dis cover how the loss occurred. The secret service Is baffled. Chief Wil kie, who has been in direct charge of the investigation at Chicago, Is un derstood to have reportnd that he does not know how the funds disappeared. It Is not known how gneat the short age Is. The count by the treasury experts may not tbe concluded for sev eral days. The books shp-v $173,000 to be missing. The treasury depart ment fears it may go far beyond that. WILL MAKE REPORT AT NEXT MEETING Council Committee Has About Decided on the Slaughter House Ordinance. ONE BUTCHERING PLACE VERY LIKELY THAT THE CITY WILL PROVIDE A SLAUGHTER HOUSE AND REQUIRE ALL MEATS PREPARED THEREl At the next meeting of the city council an ordinance regulating the Inspection of meat and milk sold In this city will be ready to be presented. The members of the investigating committee have not yet completed their labors but it is understood that they have the matter well enough In hand at the present time for a working basis on the ordinance that will be drawn up. It is understood that the committee will present an ordinance which calls for the inspection and slaughtering of live stock by all the local butchering establishments in the city, exclusive of the Richmond Abattoir company, at a municipal butchering place, where there will be a city inspector who will make inspections on the hoof and post mortem Inspections. Just what arrangements will be made in the ordinance for the inspection and pasterurization of milk is not known. The committee also believes that a remedy for protecting the public from meat butchered in small neighboring towns, where there is neither local or government inspection, will be provided. It is stated that the ordinance will prohibit the sale of meat shipped into the city until it ha3 been inspected by the city inspector. This is. a radical move but it is thought it will be regarded by the general public as a wise provision. Members of the committee believe that it would be unfair to the local butchers to compel them to submit their stock to municipal inspection and butchering at a municipal abattoir and allow local meat market men to sell meat shipped into the city from neighboring towns which has not been inspected. Another Suit Likely. Boston, Mass., March 7. It is expected that a second suit will be brought in the federal courts against the Christian Science church. It will be the purpose of the suit to secure absolute control of the property of Mrs. Eddy, until such a time as the courts have disposed of the present suit. Spooner Denies It. Washington, March 17 Senator Spooner denies that he expects to accept the general counselship of Jim Hill's road. "Hill offered me that job in lSS4i" said Spooner today. T did not accept it, and I have not heard from him since." ' ROOMS ARE CLOSED AT THE ST.

Roosevelt Suggests that Eighth District Postmasters Should Resign.

TALKS TO THE SENATORS ROTHSCHILD ACTING FOR BEVERIDGE SELECTS DRISCOLL FOR MUNCIE HEMENWAY IS NOT SATISFIED. Washington, March "7. Senators Beveridge and Hemenway continued to wrestle with the Eighth district postoffice problem today. Senator Hemenway went to the White House during the forenoon accompanied by ex-Representative Cromer, who sat out in the waiting-room while the senator talked over the district situation with the president. It was suggested by the president that in the interest of harmony it might be advisable to have Robert P. Grimes, postmaster at Anderson, and William A. Finch, postmaster at Elwood, recall their resignations, and thus be permitted to serve out their terms, which have two years and liine months yet to run. The junior senator said it was immaterial to him whether this course was pursued or not and at the suggestion of the president he agreed to take up with the postoffice department the question of having these two postmasters recall their resignations. Made Too Long Ago. Both Grimes and Finch resigned last Saturday at the request of Repre sentative Cromer, that he might have an opportunity to appoint their suc cessors. First Assistant Postmaster Hitch cock was willing that the resignations should be asked for because the postoffice inspector, who investigated the charges lodged against these officers by George F. McCullough, re commended that they be let out. The president says frankly that he does not take much stock in the re commendations of the inspector. He feels that if Grimes and Finch deserve dismissal the penalty should have been applied more than a year ago when the charges were made. The situation with reference to the Muncie office is different. The com mission of David Lambert, the pres ent postmaster, expires next Monday. At the conference between the two senators on Tuesday it was agreed that Mr. Beveridge as the senior senator, should have the first pick in the district.. Rothschild Picks Driscoll. Before leaving for New York he wired L. G. Rothschild, collector of customs at Indianapolis, to go to Muncie and select a postmaster. Rothschild carried out the instructions and picked George O. Driscoll. Before word reached here that Drischoll had been chosen by Beveridge 's representative, announcement was made in George F. McCulloch's newspaper at Muncie, that Driscoll had been selected. The announcement started a fresh crop of protests from friends of ex-Representative Cromer, who have been wiring here alleging that Driscoll is one of McCulloch's chief henchmen and is not by any means the man the people of Muncie want for postmaster. Senator Hemenway had Insisted from the start that the new postmaster should be a business man not identified in any way with either the Cromer or the McCulloch faction and the recommendation for Driscoll was not at all satisfactory to him. Up to this afternoon he had not agreed to join with Senator Beveridge in recommending Driscoll's appointment. COUNTY CAN ALSO HELP Bill Passed by Legislature for Benefit of Reid Memorial Hospital is Broad in Scope. Under the provisions of the bill passer this week by the legislature for the relief of Reid Memorial hospital, an action on the part of the county council in appropriating money for the support of the institution would be legal. It has been generally understood that the bill was to legalize the action of the Richmond city council in appropriating money for the support of the hospital, but it appears the bill is so worded as to make a similar action on the part of the county council also legal. May Ask for Help. Whether the trustees of the hospital will ask the county council at its next maeting in September to make an appropriation for the maintainance of the institution is not known. It is the general opinion that the trustees would be justified in taking such action. Since the opening of the hospital the authorities of the institution have been accepting charity patients from all over the county and the county government has never contributed a cent for the support of these unfortunates. C0RTELY0U SURPRISES GOVERNMENT CLERKS. Washington, March 7 Secretary Cortelyou, new head of the Treasury Department, astonished the hundreds of clerks who take their midday lunch at a restaurant across the street from the treasury building by appearing among them. He ate a sandwich and a piece of pie and drank a mug of milk. Many of the $1,000 clerks partook of a more sumptuous repast. Mr. Cortelyou was accustomed to lunch at this stand when he was private secretary to the Fresiden.

ANSWERSTHE DEATH CALL WAS PIONEER RESIDENT Mrs. Henry Eggemeyer Died at Her Home on South Fourth Street Just Before Noon Yesterday Six Children Survive. Mrs. Henry Eggemeyer, one of the oldest and most respected women of the city, died at her home, 418 South Fourth street, yesterday at 11:30 o'clock at the age of almost 82 years. Mrs. Eggemeyer, owing to her extreme old age, has been failing for some time, but lier condition was not thought critical until yesterday, at which time she was seized with an attack of heart trouble, causing her death. Mrs. Eggemeyer was born in Bisseldorf, Hanover, Germany, in 1825. She in company with her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Foshall, came to America in 1846 and -went direct to Cincinnati, where they were residents for about four months, later coming to Richmond, where she resided the remainder of her life. She was married to Henry Eggemeyer in 1847 la Richmond. Mr. Eggemeyer had then been a resident of the city for about four years. Their married life was notably happy. Eleven children were born to them, Bix of whom are living. Mr. Eggeaneyer, husband of the deceased, died about three years ago and since that time Mrs. Eggemeyer lived with two of her children, Henry G. Eggemeyer and Miss ! Carrie Eggemeyer, who have remained at the old home on South Fourth street. 1 Mrs. Eggemeyer was always active in church work, being the last surviving charter member of St. John's Lutheran church of this -city. This sweet spirited woman was loved by all the members of the church as well as her many other acquaintances and a wide circle of friends and relatives mourn her demise. The children surviving Mrs. Eggemeyer are: Mrs. Fred Kehlenbrink, John M. Eggemeyer, Mrs. Henry Knollenberg, Geo. II. Eggemeyer, Henry G. Eggemeyer and Miss Carrie Eggemeyer.

T., who for the past year has been traveling through South America and Europe, arrived here Wednesday afternoon enroute to his home and is the guest of his'sister, Mrs. A. Stauber, of South Third street. Mr. Vogt has with him many beautiful and curious souvenirs, which he collected during his travels abroad. A. IL Vogt, of Dayton, also a guest of Mrs. Stauber, came to visit his brother during the latter's stay in Richmond. Ready for the Governor. Indianapolis, March 7. Senator Rome Stephenson called up the house mortgage exemption bill, which increases the amount which may be exempted from taxation, and the measure was passed. It increases the amount which may be exempted from $790 to $1,200. A similar bill passed both houses, but the governor vetoed it htecause of a defect in the title. The bill passed yesterday was not amend ed and is ready for consideration by tne governor. PEDDLERS HAVE NOT ASKED FOR LICENSE City Controller Webster Parry states that none of the peddlers af fected by the ruling of Judge l x holding the peddling ordinance valid, has yet applied for a license to oper ate. Marketmaster Walterman states that he served notice on these ped dlers and unless they promptly apply for a license they will be prose cuted for violation of the ordinance. Chief Bailey says that several men engaged in the peddling business, who are affected by the court's ruling, have inquired at police headquarters concerning the ordinance and have asked if it will be necessary to apply for licenses. Chief Bailey has referred these men to the controller. No Judgrrtent Entered. Judge Fox has not as yet made a judgment against Henry Zuttermeister, Ford Curry and Harry Patridge for violating the ordinance and it is not known whether any judgment will be made by the court. No judgment can be made against these defendants in the city court as Judge Converse found them not guilty and declared the ordinance unconstitutional when their cases were heard.

County Treasurer B. B. Myrick, Jr. was In Indianapolis Wednesday looking after his interest in the county treasurers salary bill, which is a companion measure to the depository bill. Both bills were passed Wednesday by

the senate and Mr. Myrick Is of the i opinion that he was dealt with unfairly in the former measure. The depos i itory bill takes away from the county 1 treasurer nearly all the perquisites of the office and at the same time the salary bill only increases his salary from $2,900 to $4,700. To show the injustice of the bill toward Mr. Myrick. I he salary of the county treasurer . of Tippecanoe county, which has a population o? S9,000 and taxable property to the value of $31,000,000 has bren increased from $2,900 to $6,000. The population and taxable wealth of Wayne county is identically the same as in Tippeca noe county, but Mr. Myrick is only to receive a salary of $4,700. Mr. Myrick strenuously objected to this arrangement but tlie senate committee refused to make an added Increase in the salary of the treasurer of Wayne county. The house yesterday concurred in the senate amendment to the public depository bill, sending it to the governor. CIVIC CENTER HAS BECOME ATTRACTIVE.
