Continued From Page One. company wants to open up a line over the bridge immediately, no tracks will be placed but the bridge floor will be constructed so tracks can be laid at any time. Officials of the Richmond Gravel company, which has purchased the Evans' property through which the South G street bridge will pass, will be called into a special conference with the commissioners. The company will be asked to enter into some kind of an agreement whereby all bidders on the south side bridge may rent ground on either side of the bridge during construction for storage purposes, etc. Engineer Mueller said today that the company which now owns the Evans' property could wield a "big club" over contractors, through offering to rent space on both sides of the bridge which will be necessary for a contractor to work on at different prices to different contractors. "I don't believe the men in the company are planning to do such a thing but if you or I had purchased a lot of land in the river bottom, we would be tempted to use our influence to sell our gravel to contractors for the bridge," Mueller said. The board of works agreed to rent the contractor who gets the Main street bridge work the land and building which the city purchased from the Light, Heat and Power company for $10 a month. The board of works was asked today to make plans to move north the sewer which empties into an open ditch at the east end of the old bridge. Light posts, conforming with those

recently erected on Main street, will i

be erected on both the South G and Main street bridges. The city Was asked to do the wiring. The board of works did not go on record as to its intentions.

MISS WHITE GALLS SUFFRAGE FORGES TO WIRE LAFUZE

Lafuze know that the women in his

section did want suffrage

"I succeeded in getting 41 telegrams sent Mr. Lafuze from Richmond the following day, some of them from

heads of women's organizations rep

resenting hundreds, and in one case,

thousands of women. Arouses Union County.

I also got a Union county woman

ah women interested in suttrage Liberty suffragists and they also be

are requested to write or, wire Oliver P. Lafuze, joint representative from Wayne and Union counties, and ask him to support the Senate bill which will come up in the house the first of next week," said Esther Griffin White, district chairman of the Indiana Woman's Franchise League. "The other day when I was in Indianapolis attending the monthly board

meeting of the League," said Mis

v. nite, I went over to the State House and called at the headquarters of the Legislative Council of Women, under whose general auspices the suffrage bill3 are being engineered. . "Mrs. McWhirter and the other managers asked me to go over to the house chamber and talk with Lafuze and Bartel. I told them there was no use talking to Bartel who wouldn't vote for woman suffrage but that I understood that Lafuze was in favor of suffrage. They said that they had been informed Lafuze was against the bill. "I went over and talked with Lafuze. Makes Unusual Statement. "He said he would not say thathe'd oppose it but that he wasn't for it very strongly. He further eaid that no women in the constituency he represented wanted suffrage. "This was a surprising statement as Mr. Lafuze's wife is said to be a suffragist and the Union county women believed Lafuze favorable to the bill when he left for the legislature. "However that may be, I returned home and began : a campaign to let

gan a bombardment so that whatever

Lafuze may or may not do be can't say

he did so because there is no sentiment

for fuffrage in this section

"The Senate bill is the one the euf-

fragists want passed by the House, as

the House bill eliminates the provis

ion permitting women to vote for dele gates to the constitution convention.

"There has been a big, insistent and insidious lobby against the suffrage

bills and that lobby is now trying to

get the house bill passed by the House

instead of the Senate bill.

"Because it is the loophole through whic"h the enemies of suffrage mean to

defeat constitutional suffrage in Ind

iana.

"The managers of the legislative council, therefore, ask that all women interested will urge Mr. Lafuze to

vote for the Senate bill, and ask them further, to get as many men as poss

ible, to also urge Mr. Lafuze to vote

for the Senate measure.

"Lafuze voted for the amendment

to the bouse bill which provided that women should NOT vote for delegates to the constitutional convention. So it is easy to see what influences are

being brought to bear on his final

action."
