SENATE BILL 105 . IS A JBPSE now 'Active Support Given It by Indianapolis News Did It No Good.

tt'iilU'ltuiii Hpc lll Indianapolis. March 4 Senate bill No, 10. no longer a mystery. It Is a corpse. Tho house Friday afternoon killed thj bill which has caused more talk and elicited lens Information than any bill which haa appeared this legislature. Two factors caused its defeat the failure of the friends of the bill to Jiolnt out Its necessity or what evils it would cure, and the unusually active Hiipport given It by the India napoil News. The charge was made not only once, but many times during the debate that the bill was a selfish one, having for It principal purpose the elimination of the United States steel corporation oh n competitor In selling land at Gary of a land company In which Delevaa Hmith, owner of the News, Is most heavily Interested. Members of the bouse of both par ties hurled this accusation at thoso defending the bill and defied them to deny It, which none of them did. It was also urged In debate by both Democrats and Republicans that It as time for the legislature of Indiana to declare its independence of the InriianaKlln News and cease letting that paper browbeat and intimidate mem hers into supporting or opposing measures according to which it wanted done. Charge Against News. Itep. Wasmutb, (Republican) mad6 the first charge against the News during the debate in answer to a challenge from those back of the bill to tell what ho knew about the bill that should mitigate against Its passage. He railed attention to the fight that had been made for the bill by the Newt and the unfair attacks it had made upon men who took the othef side, and he gave the specifications of the competition at Oary between tho land company owned by the United States steel company and the omt backed by IVlevan Smith. He said il this bill became a law it would put the United States Steel corporation out ot tho realty business and give Mr. Smith the ground floor. Rep. Wells Democrat), became violent In his attacks upon the News and the methods it has used throughout the tiesslon to get things It wanted done put through the legislature. Rep. McClew. (Republican). In at tacking the bill, dwelt largely upon the tactics of the News In the fight 'I know what kind of Influence id imed by the newspaper that has been working so hard for this bill." he said. "It is n malign Influence. It is a blackmailing influence. The Indianapolis News pretends to be for decent things, but it has attacked more honest men than it has dishonest ones, from the president of the United 8ttea down to township officials This bill Is meant to serve the person al interests of the proprietor of that newspaper." Rep. rtrunahnn (Democrat), also took a fchot at the News. "I believe that this bill should stand or rail upon Its merits," he said, "and should not be forced down our throats by any newspaper. There has never yet been presented one good purine which thin bill would serve. For weeks we have loen confronted with the question ir. big tyw "What is wrong with senate bill 103?" Hut nobody, not even the News, has told us what is right with it." Throughout the debate those supporting the bill were on the defensive, and every attack upon the News and Its methods were received with applause by thevbody and the galleries. Tha Vote on Measure.

ENGAGEMENT RING NEED NOT SPARKLE New York, March 4. After being taken in as a son-in-law by the family of the girl who says he proposed marriage and having fed at the family board on "gefulite fisch." "kneidele" and other such delicacies until, as he said, his waist had grown three inches, Kmanuel Bernstein, a cap manufacturer, refused to marry Miss Bessie Wallowitz. Khe is nnw Kiiinrr him ! in the city court for $10,000 for breach of promise. Miss Wallowitz was spending her vacation in Connecticut when the defendant wrote her a letter in which he told how he was "gormandizing" at the home of her parents. The plaintiff said that they were to be married last fall, and he gave her an engagement ring. Counsel for the defendant wanted to know what kind of a ring it was, and the plaintiff said that it was a plain gold ring. The question arose whether a jlain gold ring could be considered an engagement ring. Judge Smith then handed down an opinion that any kind of a ring that was given to solemnize an- engagement was an engagement ring. POSTAGE STAMP USED FOR CHECK San Francisco, March 4. Probably the smallest check (though not for the smallest amount) ever presented to a bank was cashed when Joseph Taylor of San Rafael, received 20 cents on presentation of a cancelled 2-cent postage stamp which had been used by 11. H. Marcus of the Marion County Promotion league as a check. "This is the most diminutive check ever presented to any banking institution to my knowledge," said an official of the Marion County Bank; "but as long as there were funds to meet the demand for payment there could be no objection to the bank on which the order to pay was written."

MAKE INSPECTION OF PROPOSED LI Traction Line Project from Richmond South Is Regarded Feasible.

Following tae trip Thursday along the nronosed route for a. new tractiou line south from Richmond to Cincin- j nati the committee composed of mem-J bers of the Commercial clubs of Rich- ( mono Liberty and Brookville hhas the project in charge are confident that the termory contains great trafic pos.sib.lmcs which would make a, traction line a great success. Three reasons are advanced why a .Ine should be built; a minimum cost, the great amount of traffic, both freight imd passenger, which would be seeur - unu iut Bi t .lavauuii-o. The cost, the committee found, would probably he comparatively small if a roadbed now .constructed from Cincinnati to Harrison, about twenty miles from the former city on the state line, could be secured from the Hooven syndicate. Tho trip was made only as far as Harrison, by way of Brookville. The citizens of that j town were greatly interested and aj mass meeting was held last evening at which three citizens were named to assist the present committee in furthering the matter. j It is pl-.mned to build the line from Biookville to Harrison along-side tiie Big Four tracks. As the Big Four finds twenty-six fishing camps along its road of sufficient imiortancc to stop its trains, the committee feels that with these and the small towns there would be plenty of traffic. Conversation with the merchants in the towns along the route showed that they feel kindly towards the Richmond wholesalers and are buying as miieli Riehmnnrl frnmls as thev ran at . . . , present under tne rounuaooiu system of transportation. From this the cornm.ttee believes the jobbing business of tje towns could be practically controlled by Richmond if the traction uno were built. A committee of engineers consisting ; of Fred Charles At wood Jenkins Pain Comstock, and W. H. Payne, of liWioriy, will soon mvesiiaie vmeuit-i a route from this city to Liberty by way of Klkhorn would not be more feasible than by way of Abingtou as at first proposed. As soon as this committee reports a "1CIU"6 U1 luv tv"1"" beheld for the purpose of deciding ized for the purpose of building the lino or an effort made to interest other companies in the project. Tho latter course is regarded as most probable. GIRL AD ANSWERER WEDS HIS PROXY Wilkes-Barre, March 4. Peter Burns of Swoyersville, who a short time ago advertised for a wife, received so many applications that he turned over to friends those he did not take seriously. As a result the wedding of Charles Turner and Miss Susie Gallagher of Swoyersville has been announced. Burns said that Miss Gallagher answered the advertisment last week. She is winso and attractive, but he decided he did not want to marry her. He offered to introduce her to Turner and did so.

II Proved a Play Neither Good Nor Bad.

RAILROADS LOST DESPERATE FIGHT Attempts to Prevent Giving More Power to R. R. Commission Fail.

(Palladium Special) Indianapolis, March 4. The last hope of the railroads to thwart the Indiana railroad commission iu gaining the power to enforce the installation of the automatic block signal system, was lost Friday in the senate when a final amendment offered by ! Senator Wood went down to defeat, 26 to IS. The bill, which was fathered by Representative Seidensticker, of Indianapolis, was then carried with 46 votes. Senator Wood's amendment would have given the railroads the option of installing the manual, or the manual control instead of the automatic system if they so desired. It served merely to re-open the contention which was waged through the railroad committees and upon the floor of the souate. Senator Wood declared the Monon road should not be compelled to install the expons.ve automatic block signal system which the many-track ed Pennsylvania line is being equipped with as far as Chicago. He called attention to the fact that the manual control system has been approved by the railroad commission for the Vandalia road. The power remains with the railroad commission to permit any railroad to install any system which the commission may believe to be the best for the particular y line. But if the commission desires to insist upon the automatic system, it will have the. law back of it, in case there is no hitch in the governor's signature being attached to the bill as passed Friday. The senate was not ready to rip up the bill which was firmly sewed together a few days ago. Senator Kistlerhanded out the reminder that Friday was the last day upon which measures could be passed which the governor would be obliged to consider. A sharp clash occurred between Senator. Wood and Senator Shively, after the latter had defended the bill against amendment. Senator Shively intimated that the senator from Tip Astigmatism Of The Eye Due to the refraction not being equal in all parts is the cause of many Eye Troubles. If you do not see well it's unwise NOT to KNOW what the trouble is if it is astigmatism in the early stages we can relieve it with proper Glasses.

He then went on to say that a commission, which is seeking the pow. er w hich the present one desires is' the last on to which it should be en

trusted. He prophesied Interminable litigation and a complete suspension of action by the railroads until it is settled, thus jeopardizing the public safety, if the bill should pass. And it did.
