STRATTAN WILL
GO TO RUSSIA
The Turk has Improved wonderfully
since his battle - with dsen and has issued a statement to the 'effect that
after he has finished with Strangler Lewis, Monday night, he will be ready, willing and anxious to meet any one in the wrestling game. He has just distinguished himself by putting Peterson out of the running in two straight falls at Anderson inside of thirty-two minutes and did the same
trick at Nelson's theater in Logansport, when he defeated Chas. Hack-
ensmidt (cousin of the Russian Lion) on last Thursday. He picked Hack up and whirled him round and round and finally availed himself of the law of gravitation by Blaming him on the mat with great damage to Mr. Hackensmidt's physique. The, beforementioned damage consisted of a dislocated shoulder. It should not be unmen-
tioned that Hack was defeated in two
straight falls. And Still They Come.
Peter Nichols of Chicago, the light weight champion of Illinois, challen
ges any one in Richmond to wrestle him on Monday night, January 11.
Nichols weighs 133 pounds, but is willing to waive weights and take on any
local man regardless of avoirdupois.
Beside this, Nichols is to meet Tom
Jordan on next Monday night. Jor
dan is said to be quite a whirl-wind
artist himself. "Strangler" Lewis ar
rived in Richmond last night. He is six feet tall and pulls down the scales to the tune of 195. This is the same Lewis, it will be remembered who has
been sending challenges for the past
few months signing himself "the Un
known" and apparently impatient to
show what he can do. He will have that delectable chance when he runs
up against "Bob" the Turk Monday.
MANY YOUNG MEN ARE SUBPOENED
Consternation Follows Action
Of the State in Gay Blind Tiger Case.
TRIAL SET FOR MONDAY.
MARSHALL DON'T WANT BIG MANSION
Says He Opposes Expenditure
Of $150,000 of State's Money for House.
FATHER IS DYING; . 5. SON RUSHES HOME Young Naval Officer Called From Fleet.
New York, , Jan. 16. Among the passengers on the French liner Savoic which arrived this morning was En
sign Barnette, U. N. S. N., attached to
the battleship Kansas of the Atlantic fleet in its trip around the world. Barnette left the fleet' following" the
receipt of a cable Informing him that
his father, Rear, Admiral. Barnette, U. S. N. (retired) was dying.
- Immediately after landing Barnette
hurried to Jersey City here he left Immediately for Washington. A tele
gram was waiting him on a;val here,
telling him that his father had but
three days at the most to live.
HOWEVER IT IS PROBABLE THAT HEARING .WILL BE POSTPONED DEFENSE , CCfiFIDENT OF MAKING ITS CASE. .
There is a probability the case of the State vs. Gay will not come to trial
in the Wayne circuit court tomorrow. The petit jury and a large number of witnesses have been summoned, but nevertheless it is very likely the case will be continued. The case was set for trial tomorrow upon the condition that one of the attorneys would be satisfied by the date. He is not satisfied and may be out of the city. In that case, it is far from probable the court would insist upon a trial. Blind Tiger is Charge. The defendant is George Gay, proprietor of the Westcott hotel. He is charged with having violated the blind tiger section of t he law. He was tried a few months ago on the same charge and the jury disagreed. Gay's arrest followed a raid made on the hotel on a Sunday afternoon by the police. A quantity of liquors was found in a zinc tub in a bath room on the second
floor. Gay claimed the liquor had been placed there for the use of an
automobile party that was expected at the hotel. ,
Young Men Subpoened. Several surprises are promised in
connection with the coming trial. The state has had subpoened a large num
ber of young men.- It is believed an
attempt will be made to prove that it
had been the custom of the hotel man
agement to have a supply of liquor
on hand In the bath room at diverse
times. Some of the young men sub
poened, are minors and it is alleged
the state will try to prove they were
in the habit of securing liquor at the hotel.
The attorneys for the defense claim
they will be able to put up a stronger
line of evidence .than . before. They
assert they will produce witnesses to prove the truth of Gay's assertions re
garding an automobile party.
STATE COULD NOT AFFORD
PERSONAL IDEA IS THAT STATE

$20,000--TOO STEEP ERNOR.

Palladium Bureau. Indianapolis, Jan. 16.
that he Is opposed to the expenditure thta he is opposed to the exependiture
of $150,000 of the state's money for
the erection of a house for the govern
or to live in in this city. A bill for
an appropriation of that sum was in
troduced In the senate by Senator
Cox. Governor Hanly, in his last
message recommended an appropria
tion of $75,000 for that prupose.
"In the first place the state of In
diana is not in a financial condition
to spend that amount of money for a house for the governor. In the next place $150,000 would erect a : house that the average man who would be elected governor, could not afford to maintain on his salary. This would mean that the state would be obliged
to maintain it for him, pay the ser
rants and keep up the running expenses. I do not feel that the state
should be asked to do this for a gov
ernor. In case a millionaire should
be elected governor some day he might
be able to maintain such a house, but
the average man could not.
"My personal Idea of the matter is
that if the state decides to build
house for the governor, $15,000 to $20,000 would be enough to spend on
it That sum would put up a house
good enough for any governor and
one that he could maintain on his
1 salary. If the people" should elect
I millionaire as governor of the state
and he did not wish to live in such
house that would be his business. He
could take a larger and finer house if he was willing to pay for it himself. "The people of the state are paying all the taxes they should be required to pay. Taxes should be decreased instead of Increased. My own personal views with reference to an appropriation for the house for the governor are right in line with the policy of economy that I have recommended In my message."

Headquarters at Odessa. While'; he is. inRussia he will open
up the headquarters at Odessa, which
is one of the great grain markets and a large sea port at the mouth of the
Danube. Through this channel most
of the exported grain from the great
steppes of the Siberian wheat fields finds its .way out through the Black
sea into European markets.
It is for this reason that the com
pany has decided to locate its warehouse at this point. The agency will not be in the hands of an American, but will be managed by a German
who knows the field and the business thoroughly. Gone Six Weeks. After a short stay Mr. Strattan expects to return immediately to this country. He will be gone for a period of about six weeks. Mr. Strattan visited Russia about a year ago in the interest of his firm. . '
