Renewed push to require engineers licenses in Indiana
A renewed effort in the state legislature seeks a law mandating stationary engineers hold licenses. Factory Inspector McAbee backs licensing, citing boiler explosions and criminal negligence risks. Indiana has had 13 explosions this year with 7 deaths and 27 injuries, while northern towns already enforce local rules. The plan proposes a $5 license every two years funded by fees, with Massachusetts cited as a model using in situ engine demonstrations during exams.

Superintendent Kruger Pushes Four Police Substations
Superintendent Kruger sends plans to the Board of Public Works for four police substations to improve patrol coverage. He cites a city of about 215,000 with only one patrolman per 1,400 residents and recommends sixty four more officers and four substations at California Washington streets Fountain square the Massachusetts avenue railroad station and Fifteenth Street Senate avenue. Each station would house patrol wagons roll calls operators bicyclemen and a detention point with two horses and five wagons total. Estimated annual equipment and personnel would be about 46030 dollars. The board approved the report to file and may investigate further before seeking funding and possible rental sites such as part of Fountain Square’s public market house.
