PROTEST FILED BY LOCAL COMPANY IS IGNORED BY BOARD Franchise For AJJgheny Company to Be SUni to Council Tonight.

(Continued from Page One.l of the committee and the city attorney In the negotiations and asked Mr. Bavls to state what he thought should be done, whether the best contract obtainable should be accepted or such a contract rejected. Mr. Bavis refused to answer the question saying that he could not decide the question on so abort a notice. Miss Esther White said that a number of citizens had asked her to come to the . meeting and protest against the laying of the mains between the curb and the property line, as it would destroy the trees. Mr. Bond informed Miss White that the mains would all fce laid in the streets. All Questions Answered. A number of citizens spoke in ebhalf of 40 cent gas and all of the questions raised were satisfactorily answered by the members of the committee and the city attorney. After every citizen present had an opportunity to state his views, a resolution was made that everybody favoring 40 cent natural gas should stand, and all but the representatives of the Richmond, Light, Heat and Power company voted in the affirmative. The negative vote was called for and none voted against it. The Mayor and board of works then signed the contract, which completed another step in the proceedings. The contract will be presented to council tonight, and if council approves and passes a resolution under suspension of the rules, the application will be filed with the public service commission of Indiana tomorrow for approval. This proceedure is necessary, as the new public utilities law requires that permission be granted by the commission before any city grants a franchise to a competing company. Mr. K. C. Krick, one of the representatives of the Logan company, stated this morning that the contract which Richmond secured was the most drastic one ever signed by his company. He said the company held franchises In seventy cities, and Richmond had by far the best of it. Mr. Kriclc said that in the last ten years his company had never been called before a ctty council or board of works to be asked to give better service. "We are going to give the city more than they asked for," he said.

Very Daring is the Tango Gown

;Jyr -,-4 id" fak i 1 vVii

Here Is the tango gown, the most daring and diaphanous of garments designed for midsummer wear. Instead of a slit skirt a pair of small Turkish trousers, reaching to the ankles, and held by a band of crystal beads, has been adopted for ultra-fashionable dancing frocks. Over these attenuated trousers there is a drapery of crepe of the same shade, entirely open, being held by a few stitches only, as far as the hip line. The figure is plainly visible above the knee. The blouses and bodices are made loose and have the appearance of falling off. The upper part of the figure is not outlined in the least.

RAILROAD NOTES 100 MEN AFFECTED. GARRETT, Ind., July 21. In order not to overdraw its appropriation, the B. & O. Railroad company has laid off nearly a hundred men. The temporary suspension came as a surprise to the men, as the shops have been running full time, and there seemed to be plenty of work. The railroad employes have been assured that they will be returned to work, but no time has been set. NEW FREIGHT DEPOT. The budget for 1914 of the Pennsylvania lines calls for the construction of a new freight depot at Newcastle, according to announcement. The site has not been definitely decided upon but it is probable the new depot will be erected in the close vicinity of the new passenger station. The new freight depot will require a greater financial outlay than the building of the passenger station, and will be modern in every detail. After the new passenger station is completed the present depot will be used for freight by Agent A. R. Sligar and his clerks. The proposed freight depot will be constructed of brick and concrete with three tracks entering. AN OHIO CREW LAW. Switching crews and other railroaders employed in and around Cincinnati are much interested in the new "Ohio full crew switch law," which goes into effect next Friday. Indiana has a similar law and it has prevailed for about two years. The law provides that every switching train shall be manned by a full crew, consisting of an engineer, fireman, conductor and two helpers at all times. A penalty of from one hundred to five thousand dollars for violation of the law is provided. RAN AN EXCURSION. The Chesapeake & Ohio railroad ran an excursion from Richmond to Chicago Saturday night, leaving here at 7:45 o'clock and arriving at its destination about 7 o'clock Sunday morning. Returnin, the excursion arrived in Richmond at S:55 o'clock this morning. Quite a number took the trip. AUTOMATIC STOKERS. The Logansport division of the Pennsylvania has a "stoker instruction car" for the training of all engineers and firemen in the use of the new underfed automatic stokers. In charge of John Schaefer, assistant road foreman of engines of that division, classes are held daily and instructions are given. Xone of the engines in the local yards has the equipment which makes this instruction necessary. POLICE INSTRUCTIONS. Under the direction of Lieutenant Olsen of the Pittsburg police force, approximately 311 members of the special police of the Pennsylvania railroad from many divisions assembled in Harrisburg, Pa., recently and had target practice. The lieutenant showed the special officers how to use a gun in case of trouble. Cancer yearly causes 75,000 deaths in the United States.

An offi-! cial bulletin issued bv the ports today j says that the Bulgarians after sacking' and looting illages along the Ottoman . shores set fire to them.

The Turks, w ho recaptured Adrianople ; sum of $S24 was raised by the phywithout opposition, the warlike spirit i of the Bulgarians has been tamed.

ith the Roumanian army within a day's march of Sofia, the Bulgars are i f.iuj io accepi peace at any price. The re-taking of Adrianople by the Turks seems to mark the utter col- j lapse of Bulgaria's resistance to the j attacks of its former allies and its former enemy. Dissention the Cause. Apparently Bulgaria's recent crushing reverses are largely due to dissen- ! sions among its commanders in the , field and the lack of confidence on the j part of the government in the heads i of its army. I From nrcspnt Indicalinna It ia Ulr. ly that Bulgaria will be shorn of the territory which came to it as the result of the victories over the Turks in the recent war. Already the Sofia government has offered Roumania an important territorial concession tc cease hostilities. It is likely that the other Balkan states will also claim a large share of territory as the fruits of victory. Peace arrangements probably will be made without the assistance of the powers, the Balkan states being insistent upon settling their dispute i without outside interference.
