QUESTIONS FOR THE JUDGES

Indiana Scbool-Book Publishing Cora pany Not Satisfied with a Decision. It Arials from that of Judge Frazer and Aski the Supreme Court for Earlj ActionTrial of Township Assessor Quill. The echool-hook case in Kosciusko countj, Trhich Judge Frazer recently decided, bas been taken to the Supreme Court on tho appt-al of the Indiana School-book Publishing Company. The company joined Philip V. Snoke as relator atrainst Elijah A. Blue, trustee of Seward township, in the county named, to compel him to order books of the Indiana Educational Series for the common ochooN of that township. Judge Frazer refused the mandamus prayed for.andupon this the appellant, the Indiana School-book Publishing Company, seeks tho decision of the Supremo Court. A petition has been signed by its attorneys, A. G. Wood, Duucan it Smith and Morris & Bassett. and those of the appellee, Haywood 5c Koyae, asking for an early hearing. In the petition the reasons for such action are set out as follows: That the relator company lias expended larsre mus of money In procuring the publication of said rooks and now ha on hand a sufficient number of book to impply all the school of the State with Kaid books, according to the terms of said contract and said law. That some of the trustee of school corporations In the Htato deny the validity of so much of said law as Imposes or seeks to impose duties upon them in relation to wild books aixl contract, and claim for themselves the rizht to determine whether they will nr not certify to the county superintendent of their respective counties the number of hooks required for the use of the children of their respective school corporations. That on account of the diversity of opinion araonjr school trustees and the general contrariety of views and actions on their part. Induced ly such diverse views and contention, there is a want of uniformity in textiKtoks used in the common school? of the State. That tnucn confusion in the common schools has resulted; that the contention has been greatly injurious to the relator company; that a speedy decision and settlement of the question vill jeatly promote the interests of the public as well as that of the parties to this suit. For these reasons the parties res)ectfull v ask the court, it it may be consistently done, that this cause bo advanced so that at an early day it may be set forward for argument aud speedily determined. The argument will be heard on the 28th of next mouth. Trial of Thomas F. Quill. The entire morning yesterday in the Criminal Court was spent in trying to till the jury for the trial of Township Assessor Quill, charged with nutting names on his pay-roll of men who did no work in his odce. It was noon before the attorneys for both sides had agreed upon the twelfth man, and it was decided to defer tho introduction of evidence until afternoon. Tho following is the jury: Charles Rosemever, John S. Fleinming, William Quinn. William 8. Losey, Harry llarbee. Charles Dawson. William A. Ornwood, William Schoppenhorst, William Clark, Christopher A. totem, 1. w. jlcuinnis. John Green. The first witness put upon the stand by the State was Joseph Fawcett, whose name, it is alleged, was used by Quill as a 'dummy." He testified that from Septem ber, lfeb, until the present time he has been employed in a dry goods store, and that he was not working lor Uuill in April last. The testimony of Clerk Joseph Fanning, of the Hoard of County Commissioners, the next witness, covered the identification of the warrnnt npon which the money was originally drawn. The State, during his examination, attempted to introduce this warrant, for S-.41G, as evidence, but Mr. QuilTa attorneys objected because it was made out in the name of Thomas r . Uuill, assessor, xvime me indictment alludes only to Thomas F. Quill. The court overruled tho objection, and the warrant was read, as was the pay-roll for April last, to which similar objections were made. The trial will probably continue the balance of the week. - Kitz' Demurrer Sustained Directly after the Pollard exposure, four years ago, involving the transactions of certain trustees in issuing warrants in large amounts for school supplies that were never furnished, the Cincinnati National Hank brought suit here, in the United States District Court, The defendants were Ernest Kitz, Frank and Kobert B. Pollard. Kitz at the time was trustee of Center township, and in the complaint it was alleged that he and the Pollards had conwpirod to issue warrants to the amount of :!,00O. Of these warrants the plaintilfin the course of business with one Cook, a lmnker at North Vernon, got one lor $1,(00. It was dated June 17, 1SS, and was payable on the 15th of January, 1887. Cook afterward failed and the plaintiff Bought torecover from the defendants. Kitz, in December. 18S5. filed a demurrer, stating that the facts were not sufficient for a cause of action. Judge Woods, a day or two ago, sustained the demurrer. . The Bradbury Divorce Suit. ' George L. Bradbury, general manager of the L. E. & W. railroad, recently tiled suit for a divorce from his wife, La Bonne C. Bradbury, alleging cruel treatment. Mrs. Bradbury filed her answer yesterday, denying all of the allegations in her husband's complaint and farther petitioned for a divorce on similar grounds. She also asked for $10,000 alimony. A decree was given the plain till, and the question of alimony compromised, although the exact amount agreed upon was not made public. Notes from the Dockets. W. C. Stone was fined 25 and costs by Mayor Deuuj yesterday for selling liquor on Sunday. James Campbell was lined $5 and costs for assaulting his wife. Peter A. Straup quali tied yesterday ns tho assignee of Charles A. Machett, the hardware-dealer at No. 88 Massachusetts avenue. His bond was fixed at $1,000, which will cover the assets. A little over a year ago Jennie Mozenger fell into a hole on South New Jersey street, injuring her knee-cap. She at once brought suit against the city for $10,000 damages. The case was put on trial in Judge Walker's court yesterday. William A. Heading qualified yesterday as the guardian of Charles C. "and Kavmond A. Willey on $700 bond. John Brady cave a $400 bond as guardian of Lynn Brady, and Christine Prance quali tied as executrix of the estate of William Prange. On Oct. 12, 1S$. Judge Walker granted a divorce to Sarah C. Gay nor from Abraham (iaynor, but it was afterward charged that Mr. Gay nor made false statements during the trial. Yesterday he was arrested on a grand jury capias charging him with perjury. , The Court Record. filTRKMR COURT DECISIONS. U015. Kobert H. Hannah vs. Esther J. Carver. Madison C. C. Keverwd.

Questions That Are Being: Considered by the Executive Committee of the Order. The executive committee of the Supreme Council of the Order of Chosen Friends is , In session at the Bates House, and the business in which it is engaged, the examination of the books and an" airs of the order for the year now closing, will occupy its time for the remainder of the week. The officers present are: Councilor, II. H. Morse, New York; assistant councilor, Wm. O. Morris, Chicago; vice-councilor, Edward E. Edwards, Minneapolis; supreme recorder, T. B. Linn, Indianapolis; treasurer, W. J. Newton, Washington, D. C; medical examiner, Henry Jameson, Indianapolis; past councilor, Charles II. Randall. San Francisco, and chairman of supreme trnstees, uTiliarn B. Wilson, Newark, N. J. Supreme Councilor Morse, in a talk with a reporter, spoke quite freelv concerning the order's affairs. "Indianapolis," said he, 'is. our headquarters, and we intend to erect a handsome four-story building here. The Supreme Council has authorized the expenditure of $20,000. and the nine councils in this city will raise asmuch more, making in all S40.00Q. w hich will be used for building purposes. There are several sites in view, and a part of the time of this committee will be taken up in looking at ditlerent locations. The first lloor will he for business rooms, the second will be occupied by the various offices of the Supreme Council, and the third and fourth will bo used as lodge-rooms. We have nearly 1.500 members in Indianapolis and about 2,500 in the State, the entire membership being nearly 45,000. It increased during the past seven months attheratoof 1,000 a month. After the 1st of January we expect new members to come in at the rate of nearly 2,000 a month." 'What about tho new features that have been added to the organization?" "One is that wo now issue certificates to members in amounts from $1,000 to S10.000, the member paying $5 on each $1,000 per month. These certificatesmaturo in ten years or less, at the determination of the board of directors. The certificates are always worth to the member what ho has paid on them; there isno suspension orforfeiture.and the member draws interest semi-annually, at the rate of 4 per cent., on all payments that he makes. After oneyearhe can borrow the face of his certificate to buy or build. There is also a combination of the benefits of the building and loan, savings bank and investment company features. We are now arranging to present the advantages of the order to every section of the country in a way it has never been done before. The country will be divided into jurisdiction, each of which will havo an officer iu charge. Our organized jurisdictions are of various sizes, sometimes consisting of a State, sometimes of several States. We are now in all the States except the yellow-fever bell; that is, those sections of the South that are subject to this scourge. We do not include Galveston. Tex., in this, as. like New York city, Galveston seldom has the fever, and never unless brought there. The Order of Chosen Friends is building up rapidly in the province of Toronto, Canada, where we now have over a thousand members. We have a sick-benefit feature, paying members of various grades from $5 to $15 a a week. In Washington the members have combined to erect a building worth $40,000. "What will the order lose by the withdrawal of the disaffected members in Michigan!'' "There is nothing in the Michigan case, except that a doctor was sent from that State to our last Supreme Council as a representative. He had an idea he would like to have tho place held by Dr. Henry Jameson, of this city, that of medical director. He wished to be put in lino of promotion for that place. Some of the Michigan members wanted him, and some did not. The dissatisfaction will not lose us many members. He was suspended and ordered to come to Indianapolis to show cause before this committee why his suspension should not be permanent. He is not here, has allowed himself to be dropped, and that ends it. We will take in twice as many members this month as we have lost in Michigan. Indeed, we are now overwhelmed with petitions from Michigan councils desiring to return. 1 suppose if six hundred were taken out not more than one hundred of the number knew of the action that had been taken, and many of those persons want to get back." T. B. Linn, supreme recorder, says that thei June report showed Michigan to have S.059 members. The medical examinations iu that State had not ulwajs been properly made, and there had been losses disproportioneu to tnose elsewhere. Wayne :fcfl.22, Mr. Linn says that all the relief fund is paid to the supreme treasurer, and bj- him disbursed. Ho said that in California demanded separato jurisdiction, which was refused, and about :,000 members were persuaded by just such means as this to which the Michigan folks are resorting to secede and form a now order, which flourished for a little while and then died, leaving behind a long list of unpaid claims. Custodian Griffin's Last Investments. Custodian Grithu. of the State-house, has provided drop-lights with ample lengths of tubing for all the offices in the building. The present chandeliers are too highabovethulloortofurnishsutlicieutliirht on the desks unless a good many burners re lit.and the custodian estimates that the saving of gas bj'the new drop-lights will be sufficient to hire a dng-prlter to keep canines off fhe new made lawns of the State-house grounds. He regrets the cemetery-liko eflect given to tho latter by the board signs now scattered over them, but says that nothing less gruesome will auswer the purpose. The Natloual Hoard of Charities. Secretary Johnson, of the Board of State Charities, received notice yesterday that the next meeting of the National Conference of Charities and Corrections will be held at Baltimore. Md on the 14th of next May. The information is of interest for the reason that a srood many persons connected with the public institutions of this State are prepariug reports to.be submitted tothat body. The attendance from Indiana on the serious ofjthe body will probably ba larger than ever before, and an active eliort will be made to havo tho conference for lbOl held iu this city.

AFFAIRS OF THE RAILWAYS. Decision In a Wheat-Storag Case. Washington, Dec. 17. The decision of the Interstate-commerce Commission, in the case of Frederick A. WThite against the Michigan Central Railroad Company and Lake Shore & Michigan Southern Railroad Company, was announced yesterday. The opinion was written by Commissioner Veasey. Elevators for the receipt and storage of wheat are located on the line of the Michigan Central at Buchanan and Dayton, Mich., and on the lino of the Lake Shore at Plainwell, Mich., and New Carlisle, Ind. For the past five years complainant has delivered different loads of wheat to these elevators. The complaint charges that the custom of the companies to deduct from five to ten pounds, of wheat per load from the true weight is illegal. The companies do not deal with farmers in 6toring the wheat. The buyer or shipper gives the farmer ticket or order to the railroad company to receive the wheat; on delivery the railroad company gives the farmer a receipt for the weight, and the farmer then takes his ticket and rece.pt to the buyer and gets his pay. The companies insist on their right to make the deductions in order to cover shrinkage in weight while the wheat is stored in the elevator and waste in handling. The complainant failed to charge that the wheat was delivered for interstate transportation. Upon the hearing the respondents moved to dismiss the complaint for insufficiency, and the case was submitted on these motions, but the complainant had. previous to the hearing, filed some depositions, and this evidence was examined by the commission with a view of seeing what lif.ht it shed upon tho general claim of unlawful practice and upon the duty of the commission to proceed against the companies on its own motion. The commission hohls that the complaint was insufficient in substance to show violation of the act to regulate commerce, and that the respondents are entitled to havo it dismissed, but that the dismissal should be without prejudico to the institution of another proceeding. The averment in the complaint that the railroad companies were interstate common carriers does not warrant- the inference that wheat delivered at their elevators was for interstate commerce. Two Cents a Mile for Tassengers. -. "The whole drift of these disturbances in passenger rates," said a general passenger agent yesterday, "is toward making a uniform rate of 2 cents a mile." This led a reporter of the Journal to question several prominent passenger men as to the advisability of making 2 cents a mile the uniform rate on all classes of travel, and of 6even spoken to on the matter, five expressed the opinion that this is where the rate agitation will end; the other two said that the roads of Indiana and Illinois run through

too sparsely settled country o admit of carrying local business at 2 cents a mile. The general tenor of the remarks of the other live was that if mileage tickets, clergymen's tickets, theatrical tickets and excursion tickets to the thousand and one meetings held all over tho country were abolished and everybody charged 2 cents a mile, the receipts of the passenger service would bo as great as now, if not larger. "There is hardly a day in the year." said one of the passenger agents, "that there are not carried over our road delegates to some convention at a rate and one-third, and an other third of tho travel is ou mileage books, so that, take it all in all, a large per cent, of the travel now rides at a cents a mile or less, and it would be as well to make that the uniforjn rate over all roads and on all trains, and this would do away with numerous complications which now arise through the use of miktige tickets and excursion rates." Florida Passenger Kates. The passenger men who were asked to meet yesterday to fix a basis for Florida rates assembled at the Bates House, and also those who are to prepare tho basingsheet of rates in Central Traffic territory. Thirty roads were represented. Florida rates were discassed six hours without any agreement being reached, and the whole matter was laid over until to-day. .There; were a number of Central Trafhc Associa tion men who had to leave for home last i night, and they wished to dispose of the ' Central Traffic Association business. There i were some points in the Florida rates which made it necessary to secure certain information from the Southern roads before the rates could be readjusted satisfactorily. Some progress was made in fixing the ba sis of rates for the Central i rathe Associa tion, and the unfinished business was left over until to-day. Personal, Local and General Notes. - The smoking cars and the baggage and mail cars of the Big Four through trains are now all vestibuled. I. II. Wilson, lato general superintendent of the Uhlo, Indiana v W estern, carried an accident policy of Several one-thousand-mile tickets were stolen from the effico of the Cincinnati, Wabash & Michigan, at Marion, Ind., on Saturday last. The gross earnings of the Lalco Erie& Western the second week iu this month were $47,704.21; increase over earnings in the corresponding week of lbsS. 52,214.4$. The first eleven months of this year the Cincinnati. Wabash &, Michigan shows an increase of $7,700 ic passenger earnings, as compared with the corresponding period of 18S3. There are now 480 men at work in the C, f i W D Ik I ll A 4 . ft est. Lt. cc i . snops, in me eastern pan oi tne citv, and the shops are run nightly until 8 o'clock, so full of business are the different departments. The Burlington & Missouri is calling on the Vandalia and other eastern connections for grain cars. On Monday last on the St. Louis division of the this road they were 5,000 cars behind their orders. One hundred and forty-two roads show an increase in net earnings the first ten months of 1SSU of o0,5'J0,SS0, as compared with the corresponding period of 18S8. This certainly represents a very handsome dividend. During the present year there have been condemned at the shops of the rennsvlvania Company, at Indianapolis, eight engines. Six engines have been built at the company s shops here, and twelve received from the Altoona shops. There is the best of authority for sayirig that there is no truth in the report origin ating with a Chicago paper, to the ellect that the Wabash management had decided to make a general reduction of wages. The matter has not even been broached. The reorganizes of the Ohio, Indiana fc V estern state that iw per cent, of the bond holders and IK) per cent, of the stockholders have accepted tho provisions of tho reorganization, and it is believed that the remaining bond and stockholders will make no opposition to the plan. R. C. J. Pendeleton. aeut of the new fastfreight line, the Occidental, states that the line starts oil in fine style. He has established his office at No. 134 South Illinois street. Tho line has now threo thousand available cars, and will in a few months increase the number to live thousand. Traffic Manager McDoel, of the LonisviUe, New Albany &. Chicago, was in the city yesterday. He reports the business of the road at high-water mark, and adds that if their competitors are maintaining rates as strictly as is the Motion tl ere is no oc casion for meetiugs to brace up rates. W. R. Baldwin, general passenger agent of the Cincinnati, Sjinduskv &. Cleveland road, was in the city yesterday for a conference with H. M. Bronson. generel passenger auent of the Ohio, Indiana Xr W extern road. The relations between the two companies have become much more amicable of late. George W. Hayler, of the Union Pacific, is spending a day or two with friends in this city. On tho first of the year he will go to Portland. Ore., to take a position as chief clerk of Wilbur F. Lee, formerly general passenger aent of the Lake Krie c Western, but now holding a Minilar position ou tho Union Pacific lines. One of the problems which the Big Four and the Pennsylvania p.'ople are trying to solve is how it is that whenever the Motion wishes to make a case against its competitors the scalpers always have mileage or some other tickets of the two first-named . : ... . - r I rnau us evidence against them in lavor or the Mouon, biit when the case is reversed , it is impossible to get such evidence through

the scalpers, although it is known that they, the scalpers, handle ten Monon tickets to one of the other roads. The Columbus Hocking Valley, in con nection with the Chicago fc Atlantic, has . m. l. : i . r:.. I and Chicago, connection between the two roads being made at Marion, O. This f ar ther complicates business between the points named, as these roads havo put on a new train to accommodate this business. Notwithstanding that the Big Four peo ple allege that the Monon is cutting rates on passenger business, the lormer have been carrving more passengers of late, and are rapidly regaining the old percentages in the Chicago and Ohio Kiver Association. It's the Pennsylvania people who have a right to demand a larger percentage. An election, to appropriate a subsidy to aid in the construction of the proposed Greenfield. Shelbyville fc Noblesville rail road, took place in Fall Creek township. Maoison county, yesterday, lhe Pendleton precinct cast 104 votes against and 14 in favor of the subsidy. The north precinct was almost unanimous against the appropriation. ' The track of the Vandalia extension to St. Joseph was completed on Monday, and tho citizens of St. Joseph are much enthnsed over it. This intension is fortv miles in length, and it is expected it will increase the freight frame of tue L. ll.ee L. division of the Vandalia iI5 per cent, and considerably swell tho passenger business of the line. There has been a handsome increase in travel the last few days. The fast trains from tho West yesterday afternoon came in well filled, tho Vandalia bringing iu 52 through and 112 local passengers, the bt. Louis division of the Big Four S2 through and 91 local passengers, and the Chicago division of the Big Four o0 through and 74 local passeugers. The freisrht traffic of the Tennslvvania lines west of Pittsburg, on Sunday last, is said to have been the heaviest of any day in the history of the road. The Indianap olis division of the C, JSt. L. cc P. turned over to the P.. C. & St. L. .at Columbus, 405 loaded cars, and tho P., C. & St. L. turned over to the Indianapolis division 010 loaded cars. On the other divisions business, was proportionately neavy. A day or two ago Wm. R. McKcen. presi dent of the Vandalia, wus in conversation with a party of railroad men when the sub ject of the immense business this road is doing came up. "les," said Mr. McKeen, when natural gas was discovered over about one-half of the State, and in the very territory which had drawn their fuel from the coal mines in Clay county. I was about sick, and feared tho T. II. Jfc I. had Been its best days; hut to my surprise other business has sprung up and the earnings of the road are now in excess of those of any time in its history, and tho outlook brightens with each month." A railroad official, yesterday, in Bpeakinc of the marked prosperity of tho Lake Erie &. Western, said it wa3 due more to the manner the present management fostered its local business than to any other thing. If a manufacturer on the line wanted a switch to his establishment, it was put in; if cars were wanted, the local shipper is hrst accommodated, next the throutrh shipper; if parties wanted to make a trip from one town ou tho lino to another for a social visit, if a reasonable number is socured. a special train will be furnished to accommodato them, and the study of the management seems to bo to build up its local traflie; its through business is secondary, although well looked after.
