Mayor Says Works Board Will Map Out Program For Repair Work. Council does not want the police department to have a motorcycle. If any money is to be spent on motor equipment for this department the municipal legislators want an automobile purchased. In this desire, however, council Jg. balked by an almost barren city treasury, so the ordinance appropriating $300 for a motorcycle, up for third reading, was sentenced to a lingering death of the table. The mayor appointed a councilmanlc committee, which met with the board of police commissioners following the council session and ordered bids advertised for a four or five passenger automobile. This does not necessarily mean that the city will purchase a machine but that if a car can be bought at a reasonable figure the committee may urge council to buy one at once. The fate of the ordinance brought no tears to the eyes of the police commissioners and Chief Goodwin, who have, since it was introduced two weeks ago, decided such a vehicle would be of no benefit to the depart ment. Like council they want an automobile now or nothing, so cQincil, in a spirit of compromise gave them nothing. Await Tax Collection. In April the city will receive its first installment of taxes and it is quite probable that money for a police auto will then be appropriated. In the meantime a special committee compos ed of Councilmen Waidele and How-! oils will invBcticato with tbo nnl)Cf I commissioners to determine whether a two passenger runabout or a touring car, either new or second hand, should be purchased. Controller McMahan suggested the purchase cf a second hand car and con struct, a combination patrol and ambulance on its chassis. Councilman Waidele objected to the purchase of any car not manufactured by a local concern, but was told that Richmond BTrtrriifflnTifactureTB- asked .more- for cars than the city could afford to pay. Councilman Russell said motorcycles were being discarded by the police in larger cities, small automobiles being found much more desirable for police work. Councilman White opined that, this was probably due to the fact that a motorcycle could be heard fifteen miles away and its noise scared away law violators. Wants Speed Law Enforced. Council also discussed auto speeding to some extent. Councilman Howells had the clerk read the state law which provides speed limits in cities, towns and the rural districts, and council finally .adopted a resolution calling on the police to rigorously enforce the law as it pertains to Richmond. The usual number of complaints about the condition of streets wern brought up, but council was not too critical because it realized that it is almost impossible to keep streets in proper repair during th winter season. Councilman Steinbrink said South (Continued on Last Page) WOMEN OF CHICAGO REGISTERjO VOTE 200,000 Names Added to List in Thirteen Hours. CHICAGO, Feb. 3. At 8 o'clock this morning Chicago became the leading city in the United States in voting population. At that hour registration places were opened to permit 200,000 women to become full-fledged voters. For thirteen hours it was expected every registration place in the city would be crowded. It was estimated that 50,000 whose names are not al-. ready on the election books would register during the day. There are already 437,346 registered voters in the city. The women in Chicago will exercise their right to the ballot for the first time at the city primaries on Feb. 14. In spite of the hard fight made by the women voters, they must tell their exact ages. County Judge Owens made one concession to the women and ordered that the registration clerks shall record the ages in a separate and secret book, and no one will be permitted to see what age is given by the feminine voter. By a special ruling of the county clerk women are permitted to take the oath during registration with their hats on. Men must remove their headgear. Long before time for the registration places to be opened, long lines of women were waiting. Then stood shoulder to shoulder with male voters, every one taking his or her place in the line without favor being shown tho fair voters.

porations was the reason given by Representative Sims of Tennessee at the house interstate Commerce Committee hearing today for the publicity of the clause in the pending interstate Commission bill. Seth Low of New York, president of the National Civio Federation, has been protesting

against the wholesale publicity which j the bill would secure. He wanted the I attorney general or the president alone . authorized to make public any fact as to business method. "Our chief executive has great power," said Representative Sim, "and some of them have had a desire to succeed themselves in office. I am afraid that some of them might be led by the desire to make public information regarding certain corporations for political purposes in response to public clamor." "And if the executive does not discriminate for political purposes," remarked Chairman Adamson, "bad men will accuse him of It anyway." ACTIVITY OF REBELS MEHACEJPROPERTY U. S. Warship Dolphin Ordered to Sail For Tampico. VERA CRUZ, Feb. 3. American and British property is again being menaced by rebel activity near Tampico, according to a wireless message received here today. The constitutionalists there, have been reinforced and are attacking the Federals, it is reported. It is beljeved that the renewal of activities in the oil fields about Tampico is a ruse on the part of the rebels to divert part of the federal reinforcements which are on their way to Torreon. The U. S. battleship Dolphin, which sailed hurriedly for Tampico last night Is due there this afternoon. EXPRESSJOMPAUIES LAY OFFJMPLOYES Officials Say Parcel Post and Reduced Rates Are Responsible. NEW YORK, Feb. 3. More than 5,000 employes -of the big express companies have been thrown out of work by an "economy policy" which the companies have adopted. Officials of the company today declared that the policy was caused by a double blow inroads by the parcel post system, and the big reduction in rates, ordered by the inter-Btate commerce commission which became effective Feb. 1. Orders "have 'been issued by the executive officers of the companies to "cut expenses in every way possible," and it was predicted today that several thousand other employes will lose their jobs or suffer a salary reduction. Not only are the express companies reducing their working forces to save money, but in thousands of the smaller cities, where two or more companies have operated under separate roofs they are reducing rental and drayage cost by housing all companies under one roof. The American Express company had about 26,000 men in its employ before Feb. 1, but it is understood between 1,500 and 2,000 have been let out. The U. S. Express Co. reduced its working force nearly 15,000 to about 13,000 and like reductions are said tohave been made by the Wells-Fargo, Adams and other big companies. MANN SAYS FOREIGN RELATIONSJELICATE Minority Leader Fights Burnett Immigration Bill in House. WASHINGTON, Feb. 3. 'If war i should come with Japan," said Minority Leader Mann today in an earnest j plea to the house against the Burnett j immigration bill, "I should not shrink i from it. But I think now is the time j to keep cool. I do not expect to vote ; for this bill, and I do not think any j of these amendments should be agreed ' to at this time. The matter of our ; foreign relation is one of extreme delicacy at best. "While I have no especial admira- ' tion for our present state department's policy, it is my duty to assist in preserving the harmonious- relations which exist between our own and other governments. We of the Repubi lican side as well as you of the Demo1 cratic side, all of us, owe allegiance to our country. A burst of applause swept the house at this declaration. Representative Hayes wanted to know whether Representative Mann considered he was playing politics. "Oh, no," replied Mr. Mann. "The gentleman from California is sincere, but he is prejudieced. We are presum ing the whole country must save Call foraia from herself,"

Appropriations for use of the city government for 1914, as provided in the budget ordinance, are $4,000 in excess of the city's estimated income for this year, exclusive of the $29,000 which was in the general fund the first of the year. ' The general fund on January 1, 1913, totaled $42,000. The statement of the city's financial condition was made today by President Bavis of the board qf public works to show the necessity for the city government practicing extreme economy throughout the year. "The money in the general fund the flrst of the year can not be considered available for special expenditures because it must meet the operating expenses of the city until the first installment of spring taxes, which will be paid into the ctiy treasury some time in April or May," Mr. Bavis explained. Saving at Plant. Mr. Bavis then stated that while the budget had appropriated only $12,000 for public improvements this year, this fund would be increased to about $22,000 by savings at the light plant and transferring of $4,000 which was to be used for widening North Third street, and $3,000 for crushed stone. "The excess of $4,000 in appropriations over the income for the year we hope to save by the new system adopted for the administration of the street department," the board member stated. The public improvements which the board of public works has so far decided as necessary, will cost the city, according to the engineer's estimates, $20,805. These contemplated improvements, and two which have been completed, with the city's share of cost are: Sewer west of C. & O., South H to J (completed) $2,000 Paving N. 10th, H to corporation line (completed) 400 Holzapfel s.ewer 200 Alley between 12th and 13th, F to H 60 Alley, 10th to 11th, South F to G 60 Alley between North E and F, 22nd to 23rd 10 Paving East Main St. As property owner 1,400 As the city v 1,000 Paving F and N. 6th 1,500 Paving Main, 4th to river 3,300 Walks and Curbs, N. 18th 600 Alley South of Main, 11th to 14th 100 Walks, N.

Progressives Look Forward to Heavy Vote Next Monday. Nearly all the election officers have been seletced to serve at the polls next Monday when the Progressive primary election for the purpose of nominating a county ticket takes place. The candidates have made careful canvasses of the voters throughout the county and all of them expect that a large vote will be cast if the weather is favorable. "Those standpatters who have been so actively asserting that the Progressive party in Wayne County is now on its deathbed, which predictions they have been making, by the way, ever since the party was organized, would be disagreeably surprised if they got around Richmond, the small towns and the country districts as much as we candidates have," said one candidate today. "Instead of the party being on the point of breathing its last I have found that it is becoming stronger all the time and right now it is the most robust political organization this county has ever known. The men in the ranks of this party believe in its future and its principles, and while they don't do much useless talking they never miss an opportunity to cast a Progressive ballot." Probably the most interest in the Progressive primary campaign is centered on the race for county clerk, which has five entries, Claude Keever, Fountain City; Charles Potter, Richmond; L. C. Harrison, Richmond; Park Gipe. East Germantown, and Clarence D. Mote, Richmond. There is no candidate for joint representatice from Wayne and Fayette counties and it is probable there will be none from this county, the Fayette Progressives being permitted to fill this place on the ticket for the fall elections. JUBILEE RITUAL MAY BE USED BY K. OF P. Possibility that the special ritualistic service sent to the Knights of Pythias here for use before the public in the golden jubilee February 19, may be added to the program, was expressed by members of the K. of P. lodge today when a special meeting of the Jubilee committee was called for tonight by Chairman Frank Roberts. Because of the strenuous objection on part of members of the committee, the change in the program was made and the special service dropped. The opposition has been removed. It is said, and the program may be restored. The meeting will be held " in the JPythian Tempi at 7; 30 o'clock.

STARK ACCEPTS DELCO POSITION Among the Richmond men who are making good in the world outside the Quaker City is Robert P. Stark, formerly connected with the Westcott Motor Car works, who was recently appointed secretary of the engineering department of the Delco Manufacturing company, at Dayton, Ohio. Mr. Stark left the Westcott company a few months ago to take up duties with the Dayton Engineering Laboratories company and since has been promoted to a responsible position with the company. 8HOW NEW STYLES. ATLANTIC CITY, N. J., Feb. 3. Pantaloon skirts, fur anklets and straw hats were features of the fashion turnout on the board walk. They forecast styles to be seen in the Easter promenade.

It was unofficially reported In local railroad circles today that J. C. McCullough, superintendent of the Richmond division of the Pennsylvania railroad, was to be transferred to Pitts burg as superintendent of the import- . ant Pittsburg division, and that ho w3 to be succeeded as super! nt-ndent cf the local division by George Le Boutillier, maintenance engineer cf the Pittsburg division and formerly maintenance engineer of the Richmond division. This report appears to be an authentic one and an official announcement of the changes is expected in the near future. It was also rumored in local railroad circles today that there would be transfers effecting other officials of

the Richmond division. If Mr. McCullough is made superintendent of the Pittsburg division it will be a most unusual promotion for a superintendent of the local division. As a rule men must serve as superintendents of one or two other small divisions after leaving the local division before they are promoted to a post iso important as the superintendency ' at Pittsburg. Work Attracts Attention. However, local railroad men say, Mr. McCullough would deserve such a promotion as Is reported he will receive. They say he is proved to be one of the most accomplished railroad men ever in charge of the Richmond division and his work has attracted the close attention of the highest officils at the system. Mr. Le Boutillier is well known in Richmond although he has not resided here for a number of years. He is said to be a railroad man of unusual talent. Mr. McCullough has been superintendent of the Richmond division for two years, succeeding Nettleton Neff, who was transferred to the Akron division. GUEST HOUSE PLANS BEFOREJXILIARY Plans of Movement to Be Discussed At Meeting Tomorrow Evening. Discussion of plans for the purchasing of the old Business college building and grounds on North B street, remodeling the structure, proposed management and the coming campaign to raise $25,000 will come before the meeting of the Guest House Auxiliary to be held tomorrow evening at 7:30 o'clock in the Commercial club rooms. This meeting will be one of the most important held so far by the auxiliary, it is believed, and all members of the organization and others interested in the guest house movement are urged to attend and offer help in solving various problems to be broached. Plans and specifications drafted by architects will be submitted at the meeting for the approval and ratification of the auxiliary members. As much expense will be attached to this feature of the movement, following the purchase of the grounds and present building, it is believed that a fund of $25,000 should be obtained before further steps are taken, and definite arrangements probably will be affected at the session Wednesday evening.

Arrests Ohio

For Alleged

Butter

McKinley Files Charge Against Henry Murray for Alleged Cheating of Home for Friendless Women. Opening of Campaign Against Dishonest Dealers.

Using the most approved Isadore Wulfson methods but without recourse to a Wulfsonian disguise, Richmond's new inspector of weights and measures, George McKinley yesterday made his first arrest in his campaign against those who prey on the housewives with crooked .weights and measures. McKinley's victim was Henry Murray, an Ohio farmer living near New Paris, and Murray's victim was the matron for the Home for Friendless Women, a charitable organization. Murray, according to the affidavit, had been selling short weights of butter to the Home. The two charges made against him allege that in one instance the butter sold to the Home purported to weigh eight pounds was a pound and three-quarters short, and in another instance he sold seven and one-half pounds but was paid for eight pounds.

McKinley said he had been camping on Murray's trail for some time and had the matron of the Heme for Friendless Women carefully weigh her last two purchases from Murray. This weighing furnished the necessary evdence and the farmer's .arrest followed. "Murray begged like a good fellow to have me drop the charge," said the inspector. "He said he realized it would be an awful knock against him if it became known he was defrauding a charitable organization and that he would rather give the Friendless Home its butter than cheat it In the

COMMERCIAL CLUB SECRETARY. CLUB TO ENCOURAGE BUILDINGJF HOMES Directors of Commercial Organization to Co-operate With Contractors. A movement to organize a building and loan association along more liberal lines was launched at the regular meeting of the Commercial club directors last night. The directors believe by cooperating with the contractors and by, making the payments easy many more citizens could buy and pay for their homes. Details for the organization of the association have not been worked out. The committee on new homes, of which John L. Rupe is chairman, was instructed to see what could be done toward organization. Announce Election Ticket. Tickets for the annual Commercial club election were' announced and en election board was appointed composed of S. N. Jenkins, inspector; R. D. Morrow, T. C. Taylor, judges, Roy V. Dennis, W". E. Jameson, clerks. Annual yard cleaning day for Richmond will be held again on May 1. The committee on civic improvement was instructed to work out plans. Early oiling of the city streets was advocated by the directors. The committee on civic improvement will cooperate with the city officials in getting the work done as early as weather conditions will permit. The directors will make an effort to have the street in front of the K. D. Cabinet company's factory improved. They believe the plant is located in one of the best factory districts in the city, being between the railroads, and that access to it should be made easy. ONE BABY A YEAR PLANS NEW CLUB CLEVELAND, O.. Feb. 3. That at least one baby shall be born each year to one of the members of the scores of mothers' clubs affiliated with the Ohio State Congress of Mothers may become the unwritten law of the organization. A suggestion to this effect will be made to the congress at its next meeting by the president. Farmer Short Weight future. I told him there was nothing doing." Murray will be placed on trial in the city court Thursday morning. The Ohio farmer, McKinley says, is not the only dealer In produce who has been selling short weights and measures and he says he is going to make Richmond as unhealthy a place for the transaction of such business as Isador Wulfson has made Indianapolis. McKinley was coached in his work as a nemesis for crooked weights and measures merchants by the famous Indianapolis official.

NORTH STATE CITY APPRECIATES WORTH

Growth of Richmond's Or ganization Traced to Incumbent's Ability. Charles W. Jordan, who has woi a state-wide reputation as secretary of the Richmond Commercial club, has been offered the position of secretaiy of the South Bend (Ind.) Commercial club at a salary greatly In excess of what he has been receiving here. This fact became known today following a meeting of the directors of the local Commercial club last evesing. The directors voted to increase Mr. Jordan's salary three or four hundred dollars if he would remain secretary of the local organization, but even the increased salary offered Mr. Jordan is considerably less than the South Bend offer. Mr. Jordan made no statement today concerning the offer he had received from South Bend, but be is giving it serious consideration, and the club members would not be surprised if he accepted It. An unconfirmed report was that the Commercial club directors had offered to increase Mr. Jordan's salary from 1 1.800 per year to $2,400, but that the South Bend offer was in excess of 93.000. "Secretary Jordan has accomplished remarkable work for the Richmond Commercial club, and has been one of the city's most valuable assets, and his retirement from the secretaryship of our organization would mean a big loss to the whole community," was the compliment paid Mr. Jordan today by a local manufacturer. "He has established a remarkable reputation throughout the state by the work he has done for Richmond and its Commercial club, and I have been informed when South Bend had to secure a new secretary for Its commercial organization the first man considered for the place was Mr. Jordan." Local Career. Besides being secretary of the Commercial club. Mr. Jordan is also treasurer of the Richmond board of education, and formerly was county superintendent of education, which position he retired from after several years of service to accept the secretaryship of the Commercial club. As secretary of the locai business organization he has devoted tireless energy to promoting the business Interests of the city, has been a guiding spirit in the expansion of the club's affairs, and has witnessed its growth from a membership of less than three hundred to over six hundred. He also has been a "live wire" in the promotion of various public affairs. He was to a great extent responsible for the establishment of Morton park with its mile-long lake; he was the executive force behind the recent fall festival, and he also found time to give needed encouragement to art and musical affairs, which have given Richmond an unique national reputation. Under Mr. Jordan's secretaryship the Richmond Commercial club has been recognized as the model organization of its kind in Indiana, and when Marion (Ind.) besiness men recently decided to organize a club of this kind they came to Richmond for the purpose of studying the methods which have been employed in making the local organization such an active force in this city and in the state.
