Indianapolis, Ind., May 11. It is a

by Attorney General Bingham stands

Council Believes Section
Eighth Street Should Be Improved.
of
TEMPORARY REPAIRS POOR ENGLEBERT STATES THAT THIS KIND OF IMPROVEMENT IS POOR ECONOMY AND IS NOT EVEN SATISFACTORY.
DES MOINES HAS A BIGjIHE TODAY Gunpowder and Fireworks Add to the Trouble.
Des Moines, la., May. 11. The McCune building was partly - destroyed early today by fire. The roof fell in and the Inflammable stock of gunpowder and fireworks and wall-paper burned rapidly. A series of explosions occurred, and several firemen were hurt by falling ' timbers. Guests of the state central hotel, nearby, were sent out safely.

That there is no economy in continu
ally bleeding the city by the making of temporary repairs to the streets, on which permanent repairs should . be made, was the gist of the argument o! councilman Englebert last evening in referring to the proposed bricking of Eighth street from South A street to
North E street He also said that if
the city was to have any more permanent streets it would -be up to the
council to take such action as the
property owners would not.
. iwring nis live or six years as a
councilman, Englebert declared there
had been but one permanent street im
provement. He referred to the cost
of resurfacing North Ninth street
from Main to A streets, as an example of how the city treasury was being bled. This improvement will cost in the neighborhood of $350 when
completed. 1
Study Balks Englebert.
Mr. Englebert has supporters in the
council and the Eighth street improve
ment, will, probably, be ordered made.
City Attorney T. J. Study, who also believes that the improvement should
be made, said to Mr. Englebert, "you
keep the council annoyed and I will annoy the traction .company." Even
though' the entire street is not paved,
it is probable that the section beween
North and South A streets will be.
The street car company will be made
to meet the cost of 'the pavement between its tracks. Several hot shots
were slammed at the traction company for failing to live up to its contract and permit the principal corner of the city to look like a mud hole. An inquiry , as to who tore up a portion " of the second square of South Fifth street about three weeks ago. after the street had been improved but a day and a half, was made by Councilman Bartel. , "An - unresponsive board of . works, 'street commissioner and civil engineer allowed Watson P. O'Neal to answer in an indirect manner, and without committing himself as to who the party was, that the city had an inspector on the Job now. Councilman Englebert requested that the boanfof works report to council at each meeting the Improvements made during the preeeeCsg futsisat.
Mixed With Privates. Then he violated the rules again by
becoming intoxicated in company with
several privates and ' again "Goo-goo-
ing" indiscriminately. Again he was
courtmaslteied, and this time dismis
sal was the result.
Mr. Dennis enlisted as a private in
the volunteers at : the time of the
Spanish war. As a sergeant in 1899, he assisted Brig. Gen. Funston in. the capture of Jkgolnaldo. He also . accompanied' General Leonard Wood to

but that they all maintain the rates fixed by the Dean schedule. It is this
fact that has caused such a howl to
go up all over the state against high
insurance rates.
Since the temporary restraining ord
er was issued by the court here Saturday afternoon, the Indianapolis local fire inspection bureau has not done any Inspecting, for' to do so would be a violation of the restraining order and
would make the person doing it liable
to punishment for contempt of court.
It was said at the inspection office
yesterday evening that no daily re
ports of policies written had been re
ceived from agents and) that none will be received from them until after the
Injunction case filed by Attorney Gen era! Bingham is settled. This means
of course, that if the agents are still
writing business they have to. send their reports direct to the home offi
ces of their companies without inspec
tion by any local inspector.
As to the Rates.
And the further question arises
whether any agent has any right to issue a policy 'at the rates fixed by the Dean schedule while the restraining
order is In force. It is pointed oat by
some lawyers that when an agent
writes a policy at the rates fixed by
