NO ATTEMPT MADE TO RUN STREET CARS Head of Company Criticises Indianapolis Officials, Indianapolis, Nov. 4—With 400 deputies aiding the regular police de- partment in keeping order in the street car strike the city was com- paratively quiet. No attempt to run ears has been made since Sunday, when four cars that were taken out by strikebreakers under police protection were badly damaged by bricks. An autopsy on the body of Isaac Fleisher, a young strikebreaker, killed in rioting at the car barns, showed that he had been shot from behind, evidently by another strikebreaker accidentally. Except that his home is supposed to be in Philadelphia noth- ing is known about Fleisher. Three men have been wounded by glancing bullets fired by policemen to frighten strikers and a score have been slightly wounded by flying bricks. The traction company stil! insisted that it had men to operate the cars if adequate police protection was provided. President Robert Todd bitterly scored Mayor Shank and the police for their lukewarmness in protecting the company’s property. Todd refused to arbitrate and the strike leaders said the union men would remain out on strike until their demands for higher wages and better working con- ditions were granted.

Washington, Nov. | along the border between Canada and the United States who have been in the habit of making frequent trips across the line will no longer be per- | mitted to make traveling liquor and cigar stores of themselves in an ef- | fort to evade the American customs laws. The treasury department has taken cognizance of the fact that the same travelers repeatedly returned with the permitted quart of liquor and |a thousand cigars and cigarettes which later, according to custom offi- cials, were sold in this country. The flourishing traffic caught the eye of a customs inspector in North Dakota who asked for a ruling as to how far the custom regulations could be strained in this direction. The department didn’t hesitate. It said only bona fide tourists were to be benefited by the regulations. Michigan Congressman Confers With President Wilson.
