PROFIT BY LAW "Sixteen Hour" Statute Passed by Last Legislature Aids Them. THE COMMISSION'S RULING HENRY M. DOWLING HOLDS THAT CLASS OFFICIALS SET FORTH IN LAW, APPLY TO BOTH STEAM AND ELECTRIC ROADS. Indianapolis, Ind., Aug. 12.-'- That the "Sixteen Hour Law" passed by the last Legislature applies to lnterurban lines as well as steam railroads within this state was the construction placed on the law In an opinion sent out yesterday by the Indiana Railroad Commission in response to an Informal Inquiry made of the commission Aug. 6. The information was sought by traction employes. The opinion for the commission was written by Henry M. Dowling, former assistant attorney general, and now one of the railroad commissioners. The sixteen hour law provides that "It shall be unlawful for any superintendent, train dispatcher, yardmaster, foreman or other railway official to permit, exact, demand or require any engineer,, fireman, conductor, brakeman, switchman, telegraph operator or other employes engaged in the movement of passenger or freight trains, or in switching Bervice, in yards or railway stations, to remain on duty more than sixteen consecutive hours." The Railroad Commission holds that the classes of officials and employes set forth in the act, include both those connected with steam and electric lines and that there is nothing in the language of the statute which necessarily antagonizes the idea that it was Intended to apply alike to all roads. Electric Employes Included. "While the Legislature might, perhaps, constitutionally pass an act to protect travelers and employes on steam lines only," says the opinion, "yet it is scarcely probable that it would deem it proper or necessary to exclude, from the safeguards provided for steam railway passengers and employes, those who took passage upon or were employed by electric lines."

TUBERCULOSIS IS FEARED BY TYPOS

Take Action Looking Toward Prevention of White Plague. Boston, Mass., Aug. 12. Favorable action on the appointment of a com mittee to investigate and remedy, if i possible the ravages of tuberculosis in so far as It vitally affects the members of the organization, and the defeat of the proposition for a convention every five years instead of annually, were the features Tuesday of thesmeeting of the International Typographical Union. Invitations to the next convention have been received from Minneapolis and St. Joseph. The St. Louis men, who are leaving no stone unturned to win their point, have come forward with a proposition from a public spirited citizen of that city to give the organization a desirable lot for a new bunding. The St. Louis men are also suggesting a magnificent new structure, to be known as the I. T. U. building, and are asserting that one might be erected if St. Louis gets the headquarters. During the day there were sessions of the Stereotypers Union, and the Woman's Auxiliary, but little business was transacted. MASKED MEN ' DESTROY PROPERTY Hold Farmer at Bay While They Burn His Barn. Lawrenceburg, Ind., Aug. 12. While two masked men threatened Grant Stevens, a farmer living on the Elizabethtown pike, with instant death if he stepped out of his house, three others proceeded to set fire to his large stock barn, the barn and its contents being completely destroyed. The loss will aggregate $5,000, as the flames consumed four horses, 50 hogs, 20 tons of hay, several cows and several hundred bushels of corn in the barn. After the fire got well under way the men made good their escape leaving no possible clew. The fire is thought by Stevens to be due to a former farm hand seeking revenge for being discharged. Several weeks ago a stranger stopped at Steven's house and asked for work, which was given him. The fellow gave his home as Virginia, and remained about the farm for several days until he had some dispute with Stevens about what he should be paid for his work. After paying him what was due Stevens discharged the fellow, who upon leaving made the remark, "Well I see you are raising tobacco there on the hill, so I'll get even with you." Stevens had no insurance. NONE OF 1908 CROP WILL BE POOLED Burley Branch of Society of Equity Acts. Winchester, Ky., Aug. 12.
