OPPOSITION 10 HENRY DEUKER'S POLE ORDINANCE

Asserted That the Endorsement of Commercial Club Will Not Pull It Through to Passage Tonight. BELL TELEPHONE COMPANY VERY CONTRARY. Still Refuses to Accept Maximum Rate Clause in New Franchise and Therefore Will Not Go Under Ground. Wfll or will not the amended pole ordinance ae presented by Henry V. Deuker of the Second ward, be passed by the city council, requiring the removal of all wo'wien poles from Main Htreet. placing the wires in conduits and the substitution of iron or steel poles for the wooden ones used by the Htreet car and light companies? ; There Is a difference of opinion on this ' subject and despite the fact that Ken- j thnent at the last meeting of council j appeared in favor of the amended measure and that the Commercial club has since approved it, there are those who declare the measure will not pass; In fact, this declaration was made by a member of the city council, who fhould know what he is talking about. He declares that on final vote it will be found that nine members of the council are against the ordinance, which would leave but two in its favor. The point is just here. It the ordinance Is passed requiring all polos removed, the Bell telephone company will come in under the provisions and will secure the privilege for nothing, that was secured by the Home company by the acceptance of a maximum rate clause in its franchise. This would leave the Hell with a wide-opeu franchise and in case It should at some future date absorb the Home plant. the city would have absolutely no protection against any advance in rates the Bell people might see fit to make. There are various members of the council and others, who believe that as badly as they would like to see the poles removed from Main street, the matter of getting a maximum rate out of the Bell, in order to protect future generations, is of vastly more importance. They favor continuing the fight. The Bell people, it is evident, have no intention of accepting a maximum rate, which they say they cannot consistently do, because of the fact of their business country-wide and they cnnnot discriminate In favor of Richmond, having established no maximum rates elsewhere.

NEW RULER. OF PORTUGAL

ManueJ, proclaimed by the Council of State as the new King of Portugal, is the second son of the assassinated monarch. He is but little mote than IS years old, having been born in the Royal Palace at Lisbon, on November 13, 18S9. While not in the direct line of succession to the throne, as long as his elder brother, who was alfo assassinated, was alive, nevertheless Manuel received an extremely careful and painstaking education. In study he proved than he had brains and he is described as being distinctly a young man of parts, with promise of developing into an able monarch. It is probable that he will have opportunity to prove his abilities as a ruler if the alliance between Portugal and Kngland means as runny observers declare it does that British power will be ready to keep the young man on his throne. Kngland, according to those familiar with the treaty with Portugal made in 189S is bound, not merely to protect Portugal from foreign invasion, but also to safeguard the throne from any danger arising from internal revolution. Not only is England declared bound to sustain the new King by this treaty, but it is further pointed out that it would be against her policy to leave Portugal to her own devices should it appear that a state of anarchy is to result or that the country Is to be thrown into chaos by three parties fighting for the power. The reason for England's desire to maintain the Portuguese throne on a firm basis lies in the scattered lands of Portugal in many parts of the world, in which England is anxious to retain her coaling stations. It is pointed out that were a chaotic condition to arise in Portugal, the country being left by England to do what she likes, Germany or another ODD FELLOWS VISIT Sixty-seven Members and Degree team of Whitewater Lodge at Economy.

company and the party reached home at a. reasonable hour. RAILROAD TRAINS BEHIND SCHEDULE Inclement Weather Has Been Responsible. Owing to the severe weather, trains have been running late the past few days and in some cases they have been badly off the schedule, running from one to three hours behind. The combination of elements that go to make up a blizzard, has been bad for both the steam and interurban service. Few accidents have been reported, a remarkable thing for this season of the year. :. CHARACTERISTIC POSE. TILLMAN H0BS0N. He, with A. A. Small of Anderson. Ind., inaugurated a series of revival meeting's at the Grace M. E. church Inst night. Hobs?on is a speaker of nuieh power as was illustrated at the services conducted Sunday.

Power might well teize the Portuguese Islands, should it become necessary to make reprisals for injuries done by the Portugtu-.se mob to German property in Portugal. Prophets familiar with international affairs, therefore, argu" that England will sustain the newKing and that he will have full opportunity to show what land of a ruler he lias the ability to make. Thus far Manuel has been best known as a yachtsman, yachting being a sport of which lie is exexceedingly fond. He has been a prominent figure in many of the regattas held on the Mediterranean, in frequent. instances handling his yacht himself. Last year he won the King's crip, offered by King Edward of England, in one of the regattas held off Marseilles. One of the strong points about the new King, as far as his sudden elevation to sovereignty is concerned, is that he is in extremely close touch with court matters and has a good knowledge of affairs in Lisbon. He was the favorite son of the dead ruler, being much closer to King Carlos than was the Crown Prince, and being often confided in by the King. The next King has had something of a naval education, in addition to the usual schooling and tutoring of a Prince. In his early teens he was sent to the Naval School at Lisbon, where he showed great aptitude for a naval career. In personal appearance he is described as being fair, well formed and handsome. The title held by the new King, while merely the second son of Carlos, was that, of the Duke of Beja. He bears 14 Christian names in addition to his title, his full name being Manuel Marie Philippe Charles Amelio Louis Michael Raishael Gabriel Gonzague Xavier Francois D'Assise Eugene.

THREE HURLED TO THEIR DEATH

While on Way to Reunion, Husband, Wife and Brother Struck by Interurban. WARNING WAS NOT HEARD. MOTORM AN DID NOT SEE THE VEHICLE UNTIL TOO LATE TO STOP AND HIS CAR CRASHED INTO THE BUGGY. Peru, lad., Fob. o. "While on their way to a family reunion Mr. and Mrs. Alfred Kling and Ora Kling were struck and killed by the Ft.. Wayne special, a limited traction car, this morning at Bennett's Switch, thirteen miles south of here, along the Union Traction line. A fierce wind is believed to have prevented the occupants of the buggy from hearing the deep whistle of the limited as it swept through the village at. full speed, ing up time which had been lost in the run from Ft. Wayne. Mr. and Mrs. Kling, aged 23 and 22 respectively, were killed instantly. The husband's neck was broken and his skull fractured, and Mrs. Kling was almost decapitated. Ora Kling, a brother, died in tne hospital at this city, where he was hurried on a special car. His skull was tractured. Mr. and Mrs. Kling had just returned from Bennett's Switch to Kokomo to make their home. Relatives planned the reunion at the Isreal Kling home, southwest of the town, in their honor. The three were riding in a buggy inclosed to protect them from the wind. All were heavily wrapped in robes. The limited was late. Two large elevators shut off the view of the crossing and the motorman did not see tht; buggy until fifty feet from it. The crash was inevitable. Hurled Three Hundred Feet. As the motorman shrank back into the baggage compartment of the car there was a crash of splintering timber. Alfred Kling's body was found :100 feet from the crossing. His neck was broken, his skull fractured and his arm was broken. The body of Mrs. Kling was found beneath the trucks of the car. having been carried 160 feet. The top of her head was ground off. Ora Kling was ; found alive at the side of the track, i His skull was fractured. Passengers came to the assistance of the crew. A special car was order ed and Ora Kling was brought to the hospital in this city, where he died in a short time. Both horses were uninjured, although the buggy was broken into splinters and scattered along the track. The pilot of the car caught the buggy, rolling it over and over until it was demolished.

The funerals will be held PUBLIC PULSE IS This Is Evidenced by the Character of Voters Attending Political Meetings. PARTY DICTATORS SCARCE. MEN WHO FORMERLY EOASTED OF "CARRYING THEIR WARDS IN THEIR VEST POCKET," HAVE DISAPEARED FROM RICHMOND. One of the things that can not fail to impress those who attend the ward ; and other republican political meeting these days, is the remarkable change that has come about in the personnel of these gatherings. Especially is this true in Richmond, where such gatherings are almost unrecognizable as compared with former years. Men- now attend and take part in the meetings v-ho never thought of such a thing, until the public pulse hnd been more fully aroused on the subject of the duty of citizenship that is involved. Many of the faces of men who formerly boasted of "tarrying the ward in tf e!r vest pocket" have disappeared, and no one mourns their departure.

WOOD'S REGIE IN PHILIPPINES ENDED

General May Be Made Chief of The Staff After Going to Europe on a Visit. MAY RELIEVE GEN. BELL. HIS APPOINTMENT TO THIS POSITION WOULD RELIEVE PRESENT ANOMALOUS CONDITIONS IN WAR DEPARTMENT. Washington, P. C. Feb. T.. Army circles are much interested in the future of Major General Leonard Wood who has fixed upon this date for the

' expiration of his service in command of the Philippine division. He is not i expected to return to the United States for some time, however, as he intends to spend several months in Europe on leave of absence for purioses of rt ; and recreation before resuming active mak-iduty.

He will probably not reach thi country until fall and by that time tinmilitary situation may be considerably changed. It is understood that he can succeed General Frederick D. Grant in command of the department j of the East if he wents it. On the other hand, he may be ordered to Washington to assume the office and duties of chief of staff as the relief of General J. Franklin Bell. It is nointed out bv several armv I officers that the appointment of General Wood as chief of staff would effectually remedy the present anomalous condition of affairs at the war department, due to the fact that Major General Fred C. Ainsworth, the present adjutant general of the army, is senior to the present chief of staff, and consequently is not called upon to perform the ordinary routine duties of his office, except in special cases, where he takes his orders direct from tinpresident, the secretary of war or the assistant secretary of war.

Ifpalth conditions in Richmond just at this time are quite good. So says George Young, sanitary inspector. There is no diphtheria and no scarlet fever so that outside of three cases of smallpox, the diseases are of a trivial nature. The smallpox cases are not severe and are well scattered, one being on North G street, onj on Northwest Third street and one at the corner of Lincoln and Ridge streets.

One of the de-elopments from the complaint in reference to the road in Webster township, traversed by the carrier of R. F D. route No. 7, out of Richmond, is that the residents of the township have filed with the coun ty commissioners a petition for a bridsre over Buck Branch, where it ' crosses the road between the lands of Cornelius Bond and Amanda Roosa. j It is claimed that in order to put this j - ; roa(i !nto a. isfact0rv condition, the1 - ; Pftl,strnM!on ,t this bridsp is neee-d
