ACTION LINE WILL

PUT IIP Representatives of the Terre Haute, Indianapolis and Eastern Traction company served notice on the board of county commissioners this afternoon through their attorney, W. H. Letta that they would either build a bridge of their own, refuse to enter the city, or come in some other way than help defray the cost of a new structure at Main street. The traction company was represented at. the hearing this afternoon by Vice President Appel, Superintendent Jeffries and Attorney Letta. County Attorney Hoelscher- stated before the meeting that he could not keep the company off the bridge provided it was strong enough to carry interurban cars, but said if the span were built so that it would not carry interurban traffic, the company would have no recourse. Attorney Letta argued that traction engines were permitted to use the bridge because it was of public convenience. The people were benefitted thereby. For the same reason of public good, ihe traction company should be permitted to use the structure. Not the company but the people have the HUGHES DECRIES SPOILED POLITICS HELENE. Mont., Aug. 12. Charles Evans Hughes again threw down the gauntlet to the administration and reiterated his charge of "spoiled politics" in federal appointments. He spoke to an audience of 6,000 persons in the auditorium here today. For the first time also he went into detail of some of his acts as governor of New York, and declared that he opposed the state income tax bill "because I thought the language was too broad." and that it might possibly be used to tax state securities. TAGGART ADVOCATES ISSUE OF BONDS WASHINGTON, Aug. 12. An issue of government bonds to provide funds to pay for preparedness was advocated in the senate this afternoon by Senator Taggart, of Indiana. Taggart declared the proposed enor1YIAHC 4 n c in i t- nm s on1 i i-i i-v vuov. o i i-i iuv uiuc auu - poration taxes and the other direct levies included in the revenue bill are "objectionable and unjust."

The traction company is the second largest taxpaying corporation in the county and should be given some consideration. He held that the public patronizing the cars received the benefit more than the company which operated the caVs across the bridge. Owing to the hearing of the traction company about the bridge matter, the anti-tuberculosis hospital hearing was deferred until this matter was settled.

FIERCE FIGHT

If! REGION ROME, Aug. 12. A great Battle has developed around Tolmino (Tolmein) and the capture of the city by the Italians is believed to be imminent. Tolmino was the chief position of the Austro-Hungarians on the Isonzo front. The city, which was strongly fortified by the Teutons, lies nearly twenty miles north of Gorizia on the Isonzo river. It is on a railroad and important highways converge there. Ranges of hills to the north and south of the city, dominating the river, gave the Austro-Hungarians natural reserve works. While the right wing of the Italian GERMANS FAIL TO TAKE BACK LOST TRENCHES PARIS, Aug. 12. Futile atempts were made by the Germans last night to recapture from the French some of the ground lost on the Somme front. Not only were the counter-attacks of the Germans beaten off, but the war office states that a French reconnaisance, north of the Somme river, penetrated the German position in Hem wood. North of Hem wood the Germans, after cannonading the French trenches, delivered an assault but it was repulsed. "South of the river the Germans attacked at Maisonnette, but there also I they were unable to make any head way against the barrage "fire of the French artillery and the gusts of lead from the machine guns and rifles. "On the Verdun front, the communique says, the French made some progress and also repelled two German attacks. This fighting all took place on the right bank of the Meuse. The French advance was scored in the sector of Thiaumont work. At Fleury the Germans assaulted the French lines, but were driven back. ARRANGE FUNERAL OF NOTED SKON CHICAGO, Aug. 12. Funeral arrangements for Dr. John B. Murphy, noted surgeon, who died yesterday at Mackinac Island, were being made today as the funeral party was speeding toward Chicago from the Michigan resort. It is probable that services will be held' in Holy Name Cathedral and that Archbishop Mundelein will officiate. Mrs. Murphy was the only member of the family with the surgeon when he succumbed to a heart attack, brought on by a long busy life of hard work, and the recent hot wave. Announcement of his death was a shock to Chicago, as well as to the medical world, as he was known wherever advances in surgery are known. Dr. Murphy was 59 years old. He was educated in Chicago and Germany, was president of the American Medical association in 1913 and was recipient of the order of the Knighthood of St. Gregory from Pope Benedict this year. HOLD BAYER FUNERAL Many business associates, lodge brothers and friends of the late John Bayer attended the funeral services from the home. South Eighth street, this afternoon at 3 o'clock. Rev. Albert J. Feeger of the St. John Lutheran church officiated. Interment was in the Lutheran cemetery. Members of the South Side Improvement Association as well as the K. of P. and Elks lodges with which Mr. Bayer was affiliated called in body at the home last evening. COFFIN FUNERAL HELD Funeral of Charles F. Coffin, prominent Friend, was held from the South Eighth Street Friends church this morning at 10 o'clock. Rev. Francis Anscombe, pastor, assisted by Timothy Nicholson, Benjamin Johnson and Edward Bellis, officiated. The five sons and one nephew of Mr. Coffin, acted as pallbearers.

NEW AUTO STOLEN OFF NINTH STREET A new Ford touring car, owned by Elmer E.

ALLIES LAUNCH OFFENSIVE IN FIVE THEATRES LONDON, Aug. 12. The supreme effort of the allies to tighten the circle of steel which has been formed around the armies of the central powers and those of thier allies is now in full swing for the first time since the war began two years ago. With the opening of the drive against the Bulgarians in Macedonia the allies are now upon the offensive in the five theatres of war. From every front steady progress is reported for the armies of England, France, Russia and Italy. Fighting i3 in progress over the battle lines nearly three thousand miles in length. In the eastern theatres, the Russians are rolling forward in Galioia, crushing out Austro-German resistance wherever it is attempted. Following the fall of Stanislau, the Russians are again driving northward in the direction of Lemberg and it is believed that the important fortified Galician city of Halicz has either been captured by Russians or is on the point of falling into their hands. SCRAP RAGES AT POZIERES ON SOMME LINE LONDON, Aug. 12. Continuous fighting is in progress in the district north of Pozieres, on the Somme front, where the British are at grips with the Germans. The Germans assaulted the new positions of the British in that region last night, the war office announced today, but the attack was repulsed. Elsewhere the official report states, the position on the British front is unchanged. For many days and nights thers has been great activity in the zone of operations flanking the Albert-Ba-paume highway, north of Pozieres. The Germans, alarmed by the loss of trenches on the 160 yard high ridg, have been making desperate counter attacks, but these have all proved failures. Not only were they repulsed but the British have advanced their lineir lines still further, principally by the use of bombs. STEAMER IS SUNK. BULLETIN LONDON, Aug. 12 The British steamer Antiope, 2,973 tons, has been sunk. LIVER TROUBLE "I am bothered with liver trouble about twice a year," writes Joe Dingman, Webster City, Iowa.
