YOUNG BLOOD RULES DESTINY OF PARTY

Harmony Prevails and Effective Organization Apparent to Observers. Although John Harper of Cambridge City after being unanimously chosen chairman of the Wayne county Democratic central committee yesterday had a severe attack of pleurisy and was unable to preside, he was not too ill vigorously to declare before the close of the meeting that if a fusion Democratic-Republican county ticket were placed in the field this year It would be over his strenuous protests. The stand taken by the new Democratic county chairman has undoubtedly knocked into a cocked hat this pet plan of quite a few standpat Republicans and several Democratic leaders. Hy the election of John Harper as chairman, Dr. Julius Grosvenor of this city as secretary, and Henry Sherman of Richmond as treasurer, the Wayne county Democratic ship of state is now officered for the first time in many years by young men, having their first experience in practical politics. Young Men in Charge. That the county Democracy has adopted a policy of recruiting young blood for its leaders was emphasized by the fact that George Bayer presided during the meeting, because of Harper's illness, and Joshua Allen, a young attorney, acted as temporary secretary. Bayer had been a candidate for county chairman, but he withdrew his candidajry In the interests of party harmony and was several times praised for the action taken by him. "If Bayer wants anything in the future he can depend on Center township to back him up," declared one enthusiastic committeeman from that township and this remark was greeted with applause. Apparently Wayne county Democracy now has the most effective organization in years. No factional trouble seems apparent and the spirit of harmony which settled over the meeting yesterday afternoon like a fog was thick enough to cut with a knife. Former rival clan leaders fraternized in a (Continued on Page Three.) I TRASH JEPARTMENT Board of Works Obtains Efficiency Through Less Help. John McMinn of the board of public works, who supervises the department of streets and alleys, today authorized the reduction of the number of wagons used for street work and trash collection from twelve to ten. The services of a double team wagon and a single wagon will be dispensed with. "The number of alley workers was reduced from five to three, two "dump" tenders instead of four will be employed and one man instead of two will be used for pavement repair and sewer work. A total of seven permanently employed members of the street department are discharged under this order. McMinn says that by the reorganization of the street department, just effected, more effective work can be ac complished with a fewer number of men than was possible under the old system. Change Wagon Routes. Eight of the wagons of the street depifrtment will be used for trash collection work and each wagon will be numbered to correspond with the number of the district the wagon is assigned to work in. The city's two team wagons will be used to assist the street cleaning and street repair gangs. Wagons in districts four and six, north of Main street, will haul to the North Tenth street dump. Wagons in districts one, two, seven and eight, south of Main, will haul to the South Fifth street dump. Wagons in district three, in the east end, will haul to the Glen Miller dump, and the district five wagons, West Richmond, will haul to the Doran bridge dump. Foremen of dumps will be stationed at the North Tenth street and the South Fifth street dumps. The three alley workers will be assigned to assist the trash wagon drivers. One helper will work in districts me and two, one helper in districts fottr and six, and one in districts seven find eight. Under the new order of things for the street department each employe, beginning- Monday, will be required to Fiibmit a written report of his work daily. NEW POSTMASTERS WASHINGTON. Jan. 31.

City Missionary Tells Doubting Investigators Pangs of Hunger Gnaw and Cold Weather Bites. Remnants of Y. M. C. A. and Church Dinners Distributed as Relief.

Well fed, well clothed and well housed, the majority of citizens have scarcely noticed the change in weather, other than the alight inconvenience of the sloppy sidewalks. Homes touched by the Associated Charities have been affected by the change. During the preceding warm days, the chief want has been food. Now the cold, damp air penetrates the flimsy, threadbare garments, chilling to the marrow of the bones. Low coal piles are rapidly growing lower, trying to drive back the cold that comes in around the door and window casings.

With all the means at her disposal, Mrs. Candler, city missionary, is givj ing assistance. But there are so many who look to her as their only friend, their only help that her limited funds will hardly go roun. No one else, they say seems to care, whether they eat enough, sleep and live in a degree of comfort. Sleek well fed persons, wrapped in heavy clothes pass them on the street with never a thought. But at the Associated Charities is sympathy. It is hard to exaggerate the conditions in some of the homes, said Mrs. Candler who can cite case after case. This morning women and girls had tramped from the far edges of town 10 the office to recover small quantities ELECTROCUTED! ONE BADLY FROZEN Sleet Storm at Indianapolis Early Today Was a Very Costly One. TRACTION ROADS HIT Four Interurban Systems Are Badly Crippled During Early Hours. INDIANAPOLIS, Jan. 31. A life was claimed by the sleet storm early today, as it relaxed the grip it held on the city during the nine tours of dart, ness last night. Joseph M. Wash, engineer, 345 N. Addison street, was instantly killed by an electrically charged telephone at Oriental street and the C, H. & D. tracks, when the storm, gave way to snow. A sleet-broken electric wire crossed on the telephone wire of the private "order" phone of the C, H. & U. is supposed to have caused Walsh's deaht, though the wire trouble was not found at once. Frozen Man May Die. The attention of pedestrians passing Illinois and Maryland streets early today was attracted to the unusual sight of a man standing against a telephone pole. He did not move a muscle. Some one went up to him and found that he was frozen stiff and unconscious. He was taken to the City hospital. His condition is serious. . The man had on a rubber coat arid cap covered with sleet and snow, and the coat was frozen to the pole, Njp marks of identification were found 60 the man's clothing, and he remains unidentified at the hospital. V It is thought possibly that he had been out all night and when he reached Illinois and Maryland streets he could go no farther and leaned up against the pole, where his clothing froze to the pole and that when he became unconscious the frozen sleet was so strong that it held up his body. Crippled by ice, sleet and snow the four interurban systems radiating out of Indianapolis experienced one of the worst tie ups in their history, early today. The city street car lines also suffered greatly and curtained service was the best that could be offered for early morning traffic. Although not hindered greatly by the drop in the temperature, the nilroad trains coming into the city were not operating on their regular schedules early today. It was reported at the union station that all the through trains were one or two hours late, but were running. Wiremen on the city car lines and" officials of the interurban lines were j hoping there would be no further drop in the temperature causing more icn to freeze on the wires. With the loos ening of the heavy coating today, it was expected the regular schedules would be re-established before the day was over. Crippling of the telephone and telegraph service made it impossible for interurban officials here to determine just exactly what the condition of their lines out of the city. The systems of the Indianapolis, Terre Haute and Eastern lines were completely tied up early this morning, it was said at the office of G. K. Jeffries, superintendent. RAILROAD WIRES DOWN CRAWFORDSVILLE, Ind., Jan. 31. Railroad traffic was delayed, telephone and telegraph communication was crippled and travel over the country was rendered difficult by the heavy snow storm that faged last night and Big Four railroad between here and j Indianapolis fell under weight of the j ice "that covered them. Suffering among the poor is expected. SNOW AT SOUTH BEND. SOUTH BEND, Ind., Jan. 31. A heavy snowstorm has been raging in northern Indiana since midnight, nearly a foot of snow having fallen early today, , Cty street car and interurfcan service was almost completely stalled for several hours, and the public service companies reported wire trouble everywhere. The temperature dropped nearly 10 degrees duriag the night

MAN

of food left from the noon meeting at the Y. M. C. A. yesterday and a church supper last night. Where possible, Mtb. Candler wishes persons charitably inclined would distribute through the Associated Charities. The people who really need come there. Their wants are known, and supplied. A man who has been provided with a suit of -warm clothing is not given another when he needs food, but is given the food that he and his .family need. A somewhat skeptical woman was taken to two homes by Mrs. Candler yesterday, and saw for herself the conditions. Leaving she said, "Mrs. Candler, I will sleep better tonight for having done something for these people."

SNOW STORM HELPS NEW WHEAT CROP Blizzard Sweeps the Whole Country Entailing Heavy Property Loss. CHICAGO, Jan. 31. The tremendous damage done by snow and sleet in one of the worst storms that has 6 wept the Middle West, demoralizing traffic and entailing thousands of dollars of loss to telegraph and telephone companies, is offset In a measure by the benefit to the growing wheat crop. It is believed that the heavy fall of snow through the wheat growing country will mean a bumper crop for farmers next summer. Winter conditions extend from the tjanatfhurbnnrer u? the tMilf of Mexico: Heavy snow is reported from. all over the country. Train service everywhere is tied up, and reports of loss of life are slowly drifting in over a completely demoralized telegraph service. The suffering among the poor is almost indescribable. The warm weather of the last few weeks had permitted many families to keep from appealing for aid, but today thousands of men, women and children besieged charity organizations begging for fuel and foodstuffs. SNOW COVERS BODIES OF TWOJEAD MEN Chicago Swept By . Storm Tying Up Steam and 71 J. T f i, r.ipi-irir i.inra u. CHICAGO, Jan. 31. Two men wre found dead in snow drifts here, and a woman found prostrate in the snow is dying in a hospital. All street railways in Chicago brought out snow sweepers early today but much difficulty was experienced in keeping lines open in the outlying districts. Wires were prostrated by the heavy weight of snow and ice. At 8 o'clock more than eight inches of snow had been recorded in this city and the storm continued unabated. Hundreds of the city's unemployed were put to work clearing the tracks of railroads, street car lines and the streets in the downtown districts. Transportation service was demoralized in the early hours. Snow and sleet covered trolley wires and third rails.

Large Crowd Attends Meeting Despite Inclement Weather.

"There are no little sins, there are no big sins, there are no white sins, there are no black sins. One sin is as bad as another. Every sin is a crime against God and a violation of the laws of His kingdom. A violation against God's law is punishable by death, and you who have "been guilty of sin are under penalty. But Jesus stepped in as a substitute for you and endured the penalty which you deserved. If you will only put your faith in Him you can escape the penalty of your sin and receive the gift of eternal life." This was the argument which Evangelist Honeywell brought to bear on his congregation last night. In spite of the Inclement weather the big tabernacle was almost filled. The rain kept pattering on the roof, making it difficult for the speaker to get his message to the rear seats, but he held the attention of his hearers in his grip throughout. His subject was "The Work of Christ," and Ifty-two persons went to the front as the result of his vigorous pleading. Early in the service Master William Romey sang two stanzas of a hymn in a clear and steady soprano voice. After the applause had subsided, Professor Clase, the singing master of the campaign, commended the. young singer's ability very highly. "Some day," he said, "you will find that Willie Romey is one of the best tenors you ever had in your town." Send Up Flowers. Employes of Watt & Keeler, of the Hill Florist company, of the Pilot Motor Car company, Richmond Undc--wear company, and pupils from the schools attended in delegations. The Hill Floral company's delegation presented the Honeywell party with a large bouquet of roses. The crowd applauded enthusiastically when the presentation was made. Rev. and Mrs. McCombe were similarly honored. After being called to the platform a young Garfield school student with a neat little presentation speech handed them a package containing a token of the esteem, in which the Irish evangelist and his.wife are held by theboy-arid" girls of Garfield. The Garfield delegation surprised the audience with an improvised song set to the tune of "America," entitled, "Garfield, the Pride of Richmond." The refrain of the song was: "Three cheers for Mr. Honeywell! Rah! Rah! Rah!" On request of the Pilot Motor Car company's delegation, Prof, and Mrs. Clase sang a brief duet. They had difficulty in starting owing to the sustained and enthusiastic applause of their hearers. As Rev. Honeywell walked up the aisle to the platform, the Boosters, filling the first four benches of the center section, jumper to their feet and gave a yell in his honnor. ''Honeywell, Honeywell, he's all right. He goes up and down the land Doing all the good he can." Dr. Hobson, an evangelist who has worked with Rev. Honeywell in other (Continued on Page Three) SUPERINTENDENT IS TO MEETDEPUTIES First Road Meeting Under New Law Is to Be Held Next Saturday.

Steam and Interurban Traffic Tied Up, Telephone and Telegraph Communication Interrupted, While Richmond Suffers in First Real Taste of Winter This Season.

With only three telephone and telegraph wires up, the hail and rain storm which swept over Richmond and Wayne county last night, practically isolated the city from the outer world. Fallen wires and poles have blocked all roads leading to the city. Trains on the Pennsylvania are running late. Cars from Dayton are an hour late, while the T. H I. & E. interurbans from Indianapolis are not running at all. The car

from Cambridge City at 6 o'clock

en trolly wires caused the trouble. Manager Bailey of the Home Telephone company said there were at least 600 telephones in the city out of commission, the heavy coating of ice, breaking the wires. All the company's linemen began early this morning to make repairs. Only one toll line, the one to Liberty, was in working order, while wires to all other surrounding towns were dead. Company Suffers Heavy Loss. "The sleet and snow, storm of last night and this morning caused the greatest loss that our company ever sustained. We estimate that the damage done to our lines by falling wires and poles will exceed $10,000," said Leroy Browne, secretary of the

I Richmond Home Telephone company this afternoon. "Two years

ago we were damaged between $7,000 and $8,000 by a storm and all dividends for that year were suspended. "From Chester south to the John Lancaster farm, just outside the city, every pole is down. Nearly every pole on the Liberty pike for a considerable distance south of the city is down, just how far south we have been unable to ascertain. From West Fifth and School streets, north on the Union pike, every pole is down for the distance of one mile. From West Fifth and School streets along a road running west and north of the insane hospital nearly every pole is down. There are at least fifty poles down between Richmond and Centerville on the National road. "At two o'clock this afternoon we did not have a toll line in operation out of Richmond. There was one toll line up on the Liberty pike for a while this morning, but it went down an hour after it had been tested." There is no doubt but that the loss sustained by every wire service company in the city by the storm of last night and this morning was the greatest in many years. It is estimated that the combined losses of these companies will be close to $50,000.

A horse hitched to a delivery wagon belonging to the Bee Hive Grocery, avenue, pnen ic, sieppea on a mgn power jHre whicfc had fallen to the street nder its burden of Ice. People ontfcv street were greatly alarmed and fjfantic appeals to the power company to shut off the current on the fallen wire were sent in. This was the second horse owned by the Bee Hive company killed by live wires within a year. A farmer living a mile and a half south of Boston, who drove to the city today, reported that he counted fifty-one fallen poles on the road leading into Richmond. They had broken under the weight of the tons of ice collected en the wires. The Western Union Telegraph company reported a wire to Indianapolis and one to Cincinnati working. All lines except to Indianapolis and Cincinnati were reported out by the Postal Telegraph company. Centerville and other towns have been trying to get poles and supplies to repair the damage from Richmond. A Williamsburg man started to Richmond in his automobile this morning. After going a short way on one road he was forced to turn around, the road being blocked with fallen poles and wires. He tried another highway with the same result. Finally by making a wide detour he reached the city. He reports tho damage of the storm was general over the country. TRAIN JUMPS TRACK III RAGING mm Passengers Escape'Anto Cold Atmosphere in Their Night Attire. - JOLIETV III., Jan. 31. In a ragging blizzard, the Chicago & Alton midnight . special, bound for St. Louis, jumped the tracks, one car turning over, near Lockport. One hundred and twenty passengers had a miraculous escape. Only two were seriously hurt. Fifteen others suffered minor injuries. Passengers, of the overturned Pullman crowled out of the windows in their night attire into the freezing atmosphere.

Bending under their heavy armor of ice, the trees in Glen Miller Park are on the point of falling, and a few have been uprooted by the combined weight of the ice and the heavy wind that accompanied the storm. The entire net work of wires in the county, is a tangle. So many lines being down makes it impossible to communicate with other parts of the county to learn the extent of the damage. Numerous complaints that live wires were lying in the streets were received at police headquarters early this morning. A force of linemen was immediately put to work by Superintendent Khrinknecht to make repairs. In many places fallen limbs were across the walks and the heavy coating of ice on the trees and rotten branches made walking on the sidewalks dangerous. The strain on the power wire of the municipal light plant pulled it in two, depriving many firms dependent on the city current for power to close for a while.

SEEK PROTECTION OF GAS CONSUMERS

Want to Know Basis For Fix ing: Right of Authorizing: Issue. Mayor Robbins and City Attorney Bond reached the conclusion today that it would be unwise to wait until Tuesday to appear before the state public service commission and pretest against the order permitting the Light, Heat and Power company to float aa $850,000 bond issue, and left for Indianapolis this afternoon. The mayor can not reconcile himself to the belief that if the local corporation ever petitioned for an Increase in Its natural gas rates the commission would do otherwise than have its experts make an Inventory of the used and useful property of th L-, If. and P. company as a basis for determining the merits of a rate Increase petition, but. as Mayor Robbins put it today, "I can see in such an event how the company would Inform the commission that it would object to having such an inventory made of its holdings because the commlssion, by authorizing the $650,000 bond issue, had officially recognized the plant's valuation to equal that sum. and would request that Its rate Increase petition be considered on the basis of such valuation. Want Information. "Would the commission have any option other than to consider rate Increases on any other basis of valuation than it apparently established when it authorized that $850,000 bond issue? That's what we are going to Indianapolis to find out. If the commission really has made a blunder in authorizing such an issue, then we want the commission to rescind its order to protect the people of Richmond. On the face of things it looks like the commission has established a bad precedent in this case, and supplied a technicality which shrewd attorneys for a public service corporation would use to advantage if the question of a valuation basis for rate making was ever taken to the courts," continued the mayor. The mayor holds that a plant valuation, for issuing bonds and a plant valuation for rate making ar one and the same thing and can not be sepa(Continued on Page Eight.) ROCKEFELLER BOARD 11 Earlham Endowment to Be Settled on Pro Rata Basis. The general education board, having charge of the Rockefeller funds, has notified President Kelly of Earli ham college, of its decision to settle i on the pro rata basis in the endowment campaign which the college has been conducting. This was the decision expected by President Kelly and which was virtually agreed to during bis recent conference with the i board in New York.
