DEALER PASSED FRAUDULENT CHECK

Junk Dealer of Indianapolis Gave Worthless Paper on Indianapolis Bank. BAILEY IN INDIANAPOLIS. WILL BRING THE MAN BACK TO THIS CITY WHERE HE WILL HAVE TO FACE CHARGE JAFFE 3ROTHERS FLEECED. Chief of Police Bailey is at Indianapolis in an effort lo secure Schappenstein, a junk, dealer, who is wanted on a warrant issued here, charging him with passing a worthless check. Bailey left for Indianapolis on Thursday, but has not yet returned and it -was understood ho was having some trouble to get possession of his man. The story surrounding the case, as told by a member of the firm of Jeffe Brothers, junk dealers on North Fourth street, is to the effect that Schappenstein camo to them and wanted to buy some rags. They made a deal with him by which he secured stuff to the value of !?7J.77, and gave the; firm a check drawn on th Capital National bank of Indianapolis. This check was presented by the Jaffe Brothers to the Second National bank of this city and forwarded to Indianapolis for collection, but came back with the information that Schappenstein had no money in that bank. A member of the local firm then went to Indianapolis and attempted to have a personal settlement with Schappenstein, but was unsuccessful in this, as he was told by Schappenstein, In no unmistakable language, just what he might do, so he says. Jaffe then returned horn and swore out a warrant for the arrest of Schappenstein and it was on the strength of this that Bailey mad th trip to Indianapolis. Schappenstein lives at 614 South Illinois street, but it appears has no regular place of business. Reserve your seats now, at Starr Piano rooms for Sousa. FRIENDS DROP SUIT Minority Decided to Drop Case Affecting Friends Church At Amboy, Ind. CHURCH WAS WROUGHT UP. Amboy, Ind.. Feb. 7. The differences in the Friends' church here for the last three years have at last been Fettled in favor of the majority. The trouble originated over the selection of a site for a new house of worship. A minority of the families opposed a removal to the uptown site and favored a continuance in the old location. Th opponents to the uptown site were greatly in the minority, but as it is a cardinal principle of the Friends lo endeavor to arbitrate all differences, tho matter was debated and voted upon several times in the local monthly or business meetings, then in quarterly meeting, and :t was afterward carried to the Yearly Meeting at RichI .ond. Then five of the best known friends in the United Siates were commissioned to arbitrate the matter, all parties agreeing to abide by tho arbitration. This commission decided in favor of the new site, but tho minority did not eccept the ruling as final. Meanwhile, the new houso of worship was erected at a cost of $20,000, and it was dedicated on the 21th of last December, with all indebtedness lifted. In August last the minority had appealed to tho Circuit court, but a trial was postponed several times. Eventually the court set it down for hearing on the 3d of February, and after a number of witnesses had been examined the complaint was withdrawn. The minority pays all costs, with tho exception of attorney fees, on part of defendant. VIEWERS OF ROAD TO MAKE REPORT. Bonds to Be Issued for Washington Township Road.

MERRILL CAN CARE EOR DUTIES SOON

As Soon as He Secures His Bond He Can Take Position as City Clerk. CONFIRMATION NOT NEEDED PROMINENT ATTORNEYS DECLARE THAT TAGGART'S RESIGNATION WAS EFFECTIVE WHEN SUBMITTED TO COUNCIL, There was no development today in the city clerkship matter, so far as could be learned, and the situation promises to solve itself with the passing of a few more days. Mr. Taggart was on duty in the office today. C. V. Merrill, Who has been appointed to the place by the mayor, is arranging for his bond, which will be issued by a surety company, and when this is received he will be sworn in and will take up his duties. The administration has secured the opinion of three attorneys, City Attorney Study, Henry IT. Johnson and Prosecutor Jessup, which aro to the effect that Mr. Taggart is no longer clerk and henco it would not be necessary to wait upon the confirmation of Merrill's appointment by council for him to begin his duties. BREWERS USE RED INK IN MUNCIE Are Now in Constant Fear of Prohibition Wave Gaining In Strength There. STRONG ARGUMENTS USED. SAY THAT IF THE LIQUOR TRAFFIC WAS WIPED OUT, EVERY MAN, WOMAN AND CHILD WOULD SUFFER. Muncie, Ind., Feb. 7. All local saloonkeepers have received in the last few days from the brewing companies, through the agency of a bar and billiard manufacturing concern, a number of naming posters, printed In red and black ink, calling on the fanners, mechanics and workingmen in general to take a stand to nead off the wave of prohibition that, the bills declare, is sweeping the land. The posters proclaim that if the liquor traffic were to be wiped out, the greatest financial crisis in the world's history would be precipitated, and every man, woman and child in the Urited States would suffer. A few local saloonkeepers put up the large posters, as they were directed to do, but the majority of .hem did not "The public mind is sufficiently Inflamed against the li-iuor business already without spreading these red proclamations beforn it," said one uptown saloonkeeper today. Independents Angry at Brewers. These posters have alro brought out the fact that practically every uptown saloonkeeper is against the brewing companies because of their having entered the retail saloon businets through the medium of agents, and that the independent saloon men have little sympathy with any effort that the brewing companies may make to stem the tide of antisaloon sentiment. Indeed, the uptown saloonkeepers of Muncie in general are ready to welcome the restriction of saloons to the business district, as there Js practically none outside of that dlctrict that is not owned by a brewing company.

MITCHELL DENIES POLITICAL TALK

They Say Organization is Not A Grind Stone for Sharp- ! ening Political Axes. Indiauapolic, Ind., Feb. 7. The Pittsburg papers that last week assorted that the Unitod Mine workers' organization the greatest of the American labor unions was to be converted into a machine to land the democratic presidential nomination for Judge George Gray, of Delaware, are out now with a new ctory that it is to j be made an instrument for William ; Tart of Ohio, in his fight for the re- j publican nomination for president, j President John Mitchell and President-elect T. L. Lewi?, say that as fur as they know the organization is not being made a grindstone for sharpening any political axes. Other leaders and members of the national executive board who are in the city laugh at the reports and say that they are only intent on one thing running a trade or industrial union nd keeping it out. of politic?. For Judge George Gray the miners all over the country have a very high regard. He was the head of the Anthracite Strike commission appointed by President Roosevelt to put an end to the great struggle in the hard coal regions in 19o2. His fairness to the miners during the commission's hearings and the award that was returned by the commissionwhich was a victory for the miners endeared him to miners all over the country. However, the miners do not propose to turn their national union Into a campaign club for him, though individually many may work for his nomination. Mitchell and Lewis Careful. Both Mr. Mitchell and Mr. Lewis are very guarded on what they say concerning the presidential situation and tho two reports affecting the organization. Mr. Mitchell, when questioned today, said that as far as he knew there was no foundation foi these rumors. He said, however, tnat the members of the miners' union, together with all trade unionists affiliated with the American Federation of labor, were interested actively in the election to all legislative, judi cial and administrative offices of men who were known to be sympathetic to the reasonable demands of the wage earners of the country. "It follows, therefore," said Mr. Mitchell, "that they would oppose the candidacy of aspirants for political honors who are known to be unsympathetic or antagonistic to the labor movement." ' Regarding the Gray and Taft organ ization reports President-elect T. L Lewis said: "So far as I know there !s no movement political in nature in the ranks of the miners. The executive board of the Ohio Federation of Labor decided at one of its meetings to submit to the two presidential candidates in Ohio, a series of questions for the purpose of having these two gentlemen submit their views on the question of the injunction. Both replied to the letter addressed to them. Whether or not the replies are satis factory to the executive board and the officers of the Ohio Federation of . Labor I am unable to say. : "The reason why the board submitted the questions to only the two men was because it was of the opinion that it would be out of place for a state organization to submit such questions to candidates who are not regarded as citizens of that state." Mr. Lewis, who is an Ohio man, was asked whether or not Secretary Taft's record was acceptable, as a whole, tc the organizod laboring people of Ohio. He refused to discuss the matter, and indicated that he was not mixing up in politics. Plat now open for the Sousa band concert. CONGRESS HASPLANS! Washington, Feb. 7 The leaders ir Congress have made up their minds a? to just about what legislation of im portance shall be enacted at this ses sion, and the prospect is that n amount of agitation will persuadf them to change the program material Iy. First of all a currency bill of soror sort is to be passed. It looks now t if the Aldrich bill, unsatisfactory a: it is to the country, would become r law in a modified form. Unquestiona bly a majority of the Republicar members of the legislative body arf not In favor of the proposed legisia tion. but they do not see how it wi!" be possible to get anything more sar isfactory at this session, and they ar unwilling that the session shall conif Tn ur H Ti i f Vi i 1 1 1 crmf c:r-t . , P . , , . rency legislation being enacted. 'O course, the situation may change. Committee Plods Away. The committee on banking and cu rency of the House Is plodding awr holding meetings, and trying to fra? a bill based on the general provisio of the Fowler bill which will be sat' factory to the House, but it is ma' ir.g slow progress. The trend of tt talk among the Republican leaders i the House is that as long as the So ate Republicans are firm in their d termination not to pass anything br the Aldrich bill, it will be a waste r time for the House to fight for th Fowler bill; that determined oppos tion to the Aldrich bill would ineviti bly mean no currency legislation b all. Every Republican Represents tive who is seeking re-election want' to he able to return to hi3 constit uents and say that the party In pow er did enact currency legislation Some careful observers are still of the opinion that the Aldrich bill can not be put through the House, and that the session "will come to an end i-Jn no currency lesIclatJon whater.
