CONFERENCE HELD AT INDIANAPOLIS

Railroad Commission Hears The Pennsylvania's Side Of the Case. OBJECTS TO INTERCHANGE. WILLING TO MAKE IT AT SOME POINT OTHER THAN THE CONGESTED ONE THAT HAS BEEN PROPOSED. Indianapolis, Ind., Sept. 5. The state railroad commission today gave a hearing to the Panhandle and C. C. & L. railroads in regard to putting in a switch at Richmond for the interchange of freight. As has been the situation since the Commercial club of Richmond agked for an Interchange the Panhandle is opposing it and the C, C. & L. is willing to accede to the request. Superintendent Neff, of the Richmond division of the Panhandle, was on the stand throughout the morning session. Appearing also for the Pennsylvania, were Attorney Pickens? and General Superintendent McCarty. Representing the city of Richmond were Edgar M. Haas and Attorney R. K. Shiveley, while General Superintendent and Attorney John F. Robbins represented the C, C. & L. Supt. Neff, on behalf of his road, submitted two propositions, and opposed placing the interchange switch near North Fifth and D streets, contending that it would congest traffic for his road, and rob it of tracks which it is laying for its own use. The first proposition offered the C, C. & Li, is that a switch be put in from the spur that runs to the Champion roller mills, across Ft. Wayne avenue. up North F street to join the switch that runs into Gaar's plant. The proposed switch would run along the south side of North F street, making necessary the condemnation of a row of houses. The estimated cost is JjsJi.OOO. This plan if adopted, would interfere materially with Gaar's and would as,o t be fought by the C, C. & L. i The second proposition on the part of the Panhandle is that the switch be put in at the point north of Richmond where the C. C. & L. crosses the G. R. & I. The switch would circle to the west to hit the Chicago division. By this route, a carload of freight in be ing interchanged would have to travel about ten miles out of its course. ine nearing was still in progress this afternoon. .

BONAPARTE TO ASK BIG APPROPRIATION Attorney General Plans Enlargement of Department of Justice.

BUSINESS IS INCREASING. THE POLICY OF THE PRESENT AD MINISTRATION IS NOW TAXING THE POWER OF THE DEPARTMENT. Washington, Sept. 5. Well-advised officials of the department of justice say they believe Attorney General Bonaparte has in mind an enlargment of the department, such as will make it commensurate with the demands upon it. It is said the attorney general will ask congress for a much larger appropriation than usual. The exact sum is not known, but there 13 no doubt substantial arguments can be made to congress why the department of justice should be provided for on a more liberal scale It Is pointed out that the demands on the depart ment are constantly increasing and yet the appropriations made for it are extremely low. Business Constantly Growing. A high official of the department talked about the conditions that demand an enlargement of the department of justice. He said the activities of the government against the trusts, rebate-giving railroads and the like, were constantly growing. Just now the government is engaged in grappling with the most powerful monopoly in the world, the Standard Oil company. This case is virtually a test of the Sherman antitrust law. The interstate commerce laws alone, by reason of exerting a greater degree of government control over railroads are developing much important litigation and are certain to develop more. This litigation in no small part is certain to find its way to the Supreme court and will require the most care ful nttpntlnn of the department or Justice, even if much work is done by special counsel. Deoartment Must be Enlarged. The determination of the govern ment to break up the huge land frauds of the West and to recover property wrongfully obtained from the government is another sphere of activity that is requiring more and more work on the part of the depart ment of justice. It is necessary also to consider meat inspection and pure food legislation, the increasing im portance of Insular affairs and the important fact that the administration is exerting every energy to secure strict government control over all in terstate corporations and stricter con trol over railroads. All these things make the demands heavier on the department of justice Attorney General Bonaparte is said to realize this fully and to feel the de partment must expand to meet the ex pansion of government activities in numerous directions. Talk of Mr. Bonaparte's retirement from the cabi net has about died down. Mr. Bona parte has taken a lease on his Wash ington residence for another season and this is cited as pretty clear evi dence he is to remain SATCHEL CONTAINED LOCAL ADVERTISEMENT It Was Found Buried Near Up per Sandusky. PROBABLY WAS STOLEN. Upper Sandusky, Sept. 5 Tuesday morning Irvin Davis and Charles Mc Clain, members of the Hocking Valley carpenter gang, working under Foreman A. D. Bowers, while excavating under a culvert under the tracks of the Hocking Valley, two and one-half miles south of Fostoria, came across a fine leather grip, which was buried two feet in tfie ground, and against the foundation of the culvert. Opening it, they found a handsome lady's silk gown, a pair of lady's silk gloves, a pair of house slippers, a gen tleman's blue suit and a white vest, a gentleman s pocketbook and a lady's hand satchel, both empty, a number of handkerchiefs, a drinking cup, and (the only thing that would give any trace whatever as to whom it be longed) a small aluminum calendar of the year 1904, the calendar being on one side and the advertisement of the "Midway Saloon. Ed. H. Roser, Prop., 90 Mam street, Richmond, Ind." It is not known how the grip got there but most likely it was stolen and after being ransacked and cer tain things taken it was buried at this place. HAD AN ALL-DAY PICNIC.

There was a kind of public record office attached to the palace and temple at Nineveh, in which it was customary to deposit Important legal and other documents, such as contracts and agreements for the purchase and sale of property, marriage settlements, wills, etc. Among these there were discovered official statements as to the history and transactions of the eminent banking hotiFe of Egidu at Nineyeh. Assyrian chronology proves that These refer to a date about 2,300 years before the Christian era, when Abraham dwelt at Ur of the Chaldees, as la stated in Genesis. We may therefore claim for this firm the reputation of being the oldest bank In the world at least of which we have any record or are likely to have. The accounts are very voluminous and cover the transactions of five generations of the house from father to son. The firm grew rap Idly In importance during this period, during which they attained great wealth, for they succeeded in securing from the king the appointment of col lectors of taxes, a position which in the east always leads to fortune. They afterward farmed the revenue for several of the Assyrian provinces with very great gain to the firm. T. F.'s London Weekly. Corrected In Rhyme. Thackeray was much pestered by the autograph hunter, says Ilodder in his "Recollections." He disliked above all things to write in an autograph album and often refused those who asked hiru to do so sometimes rather brusquely. . On one occasion the owner of an album, a young lady, was fortunate. Thackeray took her book to his room in order to look it over. Written on a page he found these lines: Mount Blanc is the monarch of mountain Thoy crowned him lor.jr ago. But who they rot to put It on Nobody eeems to know. Albert Smith. Under these lines Mr. Thackeray wrote: A HUMBLE SUGGESTION. I know that Albert wrote in hurryTo criticise I scarce preaym. But yet methlnks' that LirvJ3y Murray Instead of "who" had written "whom W. M. Thackeray. Pliny's Yarns. riiny's ynrns about human anatomy were something wc r 1?rful.

A SENSE' OF HUMOR. It Is a Precious Gift and Helpi to .Lighten Life' Way. I regard a sense of humor as one of the most precious gifts that can be vouchsafed to a human being. He li not necessarily a bfter man for having It, but he Is a happier one. It renders him indifferent to good or ba1 fortune. It enables him to enjoy. Lla own discomfiture. Blessed with thi3 sense he is never unduly elated or cast down. No ) can ruffle his temper. No abu di turbs his equanimity. Eoros do net bore him. Humbngi do not humbug him.
