COUNTY TIRES OF LONG DELAY IN BRIDGE CASE

"So that the Main street bridge will be delayed no longer, I will recommend to the county commissioners tomorrow that they send a telegram to Engineer J. L. Harrington asking him to send his report immediately and to wait no longer for answers from the C. & O. railroad officials," William Cheesman, .candidate for re-election as commissioner from the central district today. "I believe the railroad officials are Ignoring his requests for information and I will ask that Mr. Harrington be informed that since his visit here, September 20, the railroad has notified the board of commissioners through Harry Starr, its official representative for this district, that it will make no change in its right-of-way through this city unless the county or city pays fof it," paid Mr. Cheesman. Tires of Waiting. "We have waited and waited and if we wait for the Kansas City bridge expert to get word it is hard telling when we will be able to ask for the appropriation for the new bridge. - "The people are demanding that we act. They accuse us of playing politics." Gus Hoelscher, county attorney, said today that in his opinion when Mr. Harrington wrote to the railroad company and asked for information about its stand on a change of grade through Richmond, the officials decided to notify the commissioners directly instead of sending an answer to Harrington's requests. Two weeks after Harrington was here, the railroad notified the commissioners about the stand it would take but Mr. Harrington, in a letter received by the county attorney yesterday, declared that the 'company has not notified him of its position.

HUNGRY BILL TRACEY SLICES WIFE'S ARM; LEAVES HOT DINNER Bill Tracey, colored, several days ago took his faithful houn' dawg and went in search of a rabbit and the dog got him a rabbit Mrs. Tracey fried the rabbit so successfully that Bill could not wait for it to be served. He plucked a browned hind leg from the sizzling pan. Mrs. Tracey. objected. There was a scuffle and she wrested the rabbit leg from her hungry husband and fled from the house, only to be overtaken by Bill, who recovered the morsel. When Mrs. Tracey returned to the house she discovered a six inch razor slash in her right shoulder which had severed a muscle and a small artery. Bill soon departed without getting his share of the rabbit dinner. He was arrested yesterday. In court today Bill said he had accidentally cut his wife. He said he had used the razor to skin and clean the rabbit and forgot to close the blade when he got into an argument with his wife. Bill drew $10 and costs and thirty days in jail. He also faces a charge of hunting without a license. BOSSERT RECALLS ELECTION FRAUDS AT TERRE HAUTE "It sounds well for Bernard Korbly, Democratic state chairman, to sound a warning that the Republicans are 'going to attempt to steal the Indiana election next month,' " laughed Walter Bossert, Republican district chairman today after reading Mr. Korbly's address before the guests at the Democratic banquet held here last night. "If my memory serves me right there are several prominent Democratic leaders, former residents of Terre Haute, now working for Uncle Sam in one of his prisons out in Kansas, as a result of the most brazen election frauds ever perpetuated In this state the notorious Terre Haute election frauds. "I also remember the election fraud scandal in Indianapolis during the Democratic administration. It is easy to charge the Republicans with 'stealing elections'; it is another story to substantiate such charges. I would advise Mr. Korbly in the future to keep quiet on this subject."

POLICE PUT STOP TO HURLING ROCKS AT PASTOR'S HOME

1 "There will be no more throwing of stones at the residence of the Rev. J. P. Q. Wallace, colored, who lives at 34S Randolph street," said Chief Goodwin. "I have Investigated this case thoroughly and I am sure Wallace will not be bothered In the future. If he is there will be some arrests. My investigation showed that this house stoning was by people who objected to this colored family living in their neighborhood." Rev. Mr. Wallace is pastor of the Bethel A. M. E. church. He says he purchased the property he now lives in after he had canvassed the neighborhood to see whether there was any objection to his taking over the property. He said' this canvass showed no such objections. He bought the property from Mrs. Mary Compton. "I won't be driven from the neighborhood but If I am not wanted I will sell the property for what I paid for it, $2,250," Wallace stated. One stone broke a window glass in the rear of the house. Another stone broke a glass in a rear hallway. City Statistics Marriage Licenses. Harry R. Rlggleman, 25, telegraph operator, Greensfork, to Lydla Franklin. 20, Williamsburg. Warranty Deeds. Fred M.
