Brewing Companies Demand Settlements. Two additional lainis against Hugh P. Taylor, taioonist. were filed today in circuit ourt, demanding $385 and $66 for beer jind whisky sold to Taylor in 1 i 1 2 aiid January, 1913. The Faloon was closed yesterday by Sheriff Bayer because of a claim of $1,198 by the Fred Miller Brewing company. The N. M. Uri company of Louisville asks judgment for $6C52 as the balance on a bill of $191.52 for two barrels of Montreal whisky. A claim of $385 was placed by the Joseph Evans company of Milwaukee, for foreclosure of a note given by Taylor in August, promising to pay for beer purchased earlier in the year. At the time of the filing of the first complaint, Taylor was negotiating for the sale of the saloon, which is located on South Fifth street near E. He claims that the filing of the suits has ruined him, whereas he could have secured enough money to settle the claims out of court.

WILSON JIGNS BILL Hesitates Over Clause Providing for Exemption.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 22. The president today signed the urgency deficiency bill. He hesitated at first about placing his signature on the measure, owing to the clause which provided that deputy collectors of revenue should be exempt from the civil service act, but finally decided to accept it. The bill carries appropriations of $4,603,000. In signing the bill, President Wilson said: "I am convinced that after a careful examination of the facts the offices of deputy collector and deputy marshal were never intended to be included under the ordinary provisions of the civil service law. There is no danger that the spoils system will creep in with my approval of the bill.

CONTINUE LICENSE

The license to sell liquor which was issued to Ben Bowing, deceased, last

spring, was continued for six months to his brother, Frank Bowing by the j countv commissioners.
