[Special to The Indianapolis News] NOBLESVILLE, Ind., January 16.Auditor Powell, acting on a petition signed by fifty business men of this city. Issued a call to-day for a special meeting of the County Council next Saturday for the purpose of appropriating a reward for the arrest and conviction of the assassin of John E. Seay, who waja.thot while in the Model mill. In this efiy, three weeks ago. It has been suggested that from $2,000 to $6,000 be offered, which amount. It is believed, will be sufficient to call for the services of the best detective talent in the country. The business men, who signed the petition, contend that a crime of this character should not be permitted to pass without every effort possible being mado to apprehend the murderer. No evidence of importance has developed in the case within the past week. William Fodrea, the young man who is In jail, under suspicion of having committed the crime, still asserts his inr ocence and does not show the least signs of breaking down, as was first thought he would. His demeanor at times is such as to cause the authorities to believe in his Innocence, were it not for the fact that the evidence unearthed thus far points to his guilt. Every effort to fasten suspicion on some one else has failed. It was even thought Seay might have had enemies at hto old home in Richmond, Va., and It was conceded that they might have come here and committed the murder, but information received from Richmond to to the effect that he was popular among his acquaintances, and so far as known, be had no enemies. Judge Neal will call the grand Jury in a few days to investigate the case. It is reasonably certain that Fodrea will be indicted for murder In the first degree, so that he can be held in custody, pending an Investigation by detecUves, who, it Is believed, will commence work on the case as soon as a reward Is offered. In the event that the evidence does not warrant conviction, the indictment can be dismissed and Fodrea released.

A LIFE FULL OF INTEREST. Well Known Columbus Man Celebrates 77th Birthday by Working. [Special to The Indianapolis News.] COLUMBUS, Ind., January 16.—It is seldom that a man attains the age of seven-ty-seven years, and at the same time is blessed with vitality that permits him to perform manual labor every day in the year. Samuel Hege, one of the best known characters of Columbus, enjoys this distinction. He has just celebrated his seventy-seventh birthday. When seen by a News correspondent he had finished rolling some enormous oak logs at the Hege & Co. mill. Hege was born in Pennsylvania, but his earlier days were spent In Ohio. At the age of sixteen, he learned the trade of carpenter and bridge builder, and came to Columbus in 1847. In the years of 1852-1864 Hege, as a contractor, built all the second bridges on the old
[Special to The Indianapolis News.] ANDERSON, Ind., January 16.—After the Eighth district Republican convention that was held at Winchester yesterday to effect the district organisation, had adjourned, ^the Jay, Wells, Randolph, Delaware and Adams county chairmen made an effort to force an early congressional nominating convention. The move seemed to be in behalf of Congressman Cromer, as the effect would have been to shut Mayor Dunlap, of Anderson, out of the race, and also bar entry to any candidate
from Randolph county.
The five chairmen made their demands on District Committeeman George Lilly. Lilly protested, saying he had barely been installed as chairman, and that he wished a little more time for an acquaintance with the district chairman's affairs, and that he would issue a call in due time for & meeting of the county chairmen. The five present insisted that the matter could be disposed of-at once, but Lilly refused to consider the suggestion. The quintet of chairmen then sent for Congressman Cromer, who ’joined'them In a request for the immediate
selection of time and place.
Lilly retired for a few mibutes to confer ■with some of the leaders and returned with his original opinion unshaken. The county chairmen then suggested that they “just talk over” the matter, but a motion was soon n ade by one, on "date.” Lilly refused to consider the motion. The five chairmen then declared that a meeting was on, and, overruled the chairman and elected a chairman of the five county chairmen present and voted unanimously for the convention to be held at Portland February 14. Mr. Lilly again refused to recognize the action. The Delaware, Randolph, Jay, Wells, Adams chairmen then asked for a meeting at Muncie on next Monday. Lilly consented to this, losing a point In the tilt. The district chairmen then took it upon themselves to send w< rd to their home counties that the convention would likely be held on February 14 at Portland. This unofficial announcement preceded Lilly home and was so published. He promptly declared that no

In i860 he inaugurated the business, now being conducted under the firm name of Hege & Co. Mr. Hege at one time was worth about $150,000, but is now working ofl salary at the mill conducted by his son and a son-in-law. In 1888 Hege, and several other men of this city, entered into the purchase of 16,000 acres of land in Tennessee, and when it came time to settle, it was learned that the other men in the deal had no money. As a result be had to pay for the whole deal out of his own pocket. This left him almost penniless. The land was finally lost In litigation. Hege, being an early settler here, got into possession of some of the choicest property In the city, but this was wiped away in his land deal. Hege was married twice, his first marriage being to Miss Cynthia Hill, at Richmond, Ind. Miss Hill was a niece of the president of Earlham College, in the early 50s. At that time Hege was doing considerable contract work throughout Indiana, and he met her while the latter was visiting at Carthage. He was married, the second time, to Mrs. Mary E. White. Air.

Ind., January 16.-Mrs. Catharine Haynes, the oldest continuous resident of Carroll county, celebrated her ninety-first birthday yesterday.

convention was
In Madison county it is assumed that Congressman Cromer and the chairmen who were with him had a manifold purpose In view, of rushing the congressional convention. First, to circumvent, if possible, a resolution by the Madison county committee to express the county’s choice of candidates in the county nominating convention, which means that Mayor Dunlap would be empowered to name the Madison county delegates. Second,that the Cromer faction, by a February convention, would probably shut out a candidate from Randolph county. Madison county can not hold Its county nominating convention before March, and its delegates can not be named or Instructed outside of convention, since the Dunlap resolution was adopted by the county committee. If the majority of the chairmen win next Monday, and select February 14, Madison county threatens to start trouble that
will rend the district.
TWO BILLS APPROVED.
One Calls for Indiana Limestone in the Indianapolis Building. [Special to The Indianapolis News.} BEDFORD, Ind., January 16.-During the meeting of the Second congressional district convention yesterday afternoon, among the resolutions adopted was one requesting Senators Fairbanks and Beveridge to use their influence in securing the use of Indiana oolitic limestone in the erection of the new Federal building, at Indianapolis; also, cordially approving the bill presented In the Senate for a $100,000 public building in the historic and beautiful city of Vincennes, introduced by Senator Fairbanks, and requesting both Senators to see that this bill becomes a law.
Romance Culminate* in Marriage. JEFFERSONVILLE, Ind., January 16. —Frank A. Bond and Miss Edna Secoy have been united in marriage, the culmination of a romance. Bond separated from his first wife some years ago, and after intrusting the care of his little daughter to the Secoy family, he went West. During his absence his wife returned to Jeffersonville and secured possession of the child by habeas corpus proceedings. Miss Secoy was very much att ached-to the little one, and wept bitterly in court when the mother was given custody. Then the father returned from the West and recovered the child, after which he secured a divorce. His heart was touched by Miss Secoy’s affection for his child, and a marriage followed In due time.

BANKRUPTCY
Notice Given that an Assignment Forced, and Regret Expressed for Relinquishing the Business.
[Special to Th« Indian&polU News.] TERRE HAUTE, Ind., January 16.—The Great Northern Supply Company has issued a notice to the miners of the State that, “through the lack of business due to non-support of the miners, we have been forced by our creditors to make an assignment in their favor,” and expressing regret for relinquishing the business. This means that the agency of the so-called powder trust is abandoning the Indiana field, and It removes the powder question from its place of importance in the forthcoming convention of miners. The Great Northern was the company which, for two years, has been fighting the independent company, composed of operators, which has a powder factory in thislcounty, by selling to miners by the keg at wholesale prices. The significance of the withdrawal of the agency at this time is In the fact that while It has continued In business during the year when the miners were obligated by a wage contract to buy powder from the operator, it is going out

Tract Still Remains a Wilderness, Without Roads, Schools or Houses —Now Valuable a* Oil Holdings.
[Special to The Indianapolis News.] HARTFORD CITY, Ind., January 16.Dr. F. D. Kendrick, of St. Paul, Minn., was here yesterday to sell and transfer his farm of 831 acres, tn the famous Godfrey reserve to J. C. Flemming, of the same city. The consideration was $26,000. The land disposed of forms a part of the Miami Indian reserve. Until a year ago, when he sold to D. F. Kendrick, the owner was Victor Gilman, of St. Paul, whose long legal fight for the ejectment of Wool Sawyer, a squatter, who had become rich living on the land, attracted attention throughout northeastern Indiana. The Godfrey reserve is a tract of land containing 2,700 acres, and lies along the boundary of Blackford and Jay counties. It’is now about the only tract in this part of the State that still remains a wilderness. There is not a church nor a schoolhouse within its boundaries, no roads and but a single resident. Sawyer, who lived in the center of the dense forest, cut much of the valuable timber from it, and left only a dense tangle of Impenetrable/" undergrowth. From the sale of cattle and timber he amassed a fortune, and after year* of occupation maintained the right of ownership by “squatter sovereignty.” He contended that it was "no man’s land,” and, therefore, anyone had the right to occupy it. Others averred that it was still the property of the Miami Indians, and that Chief Godfrey provided, at hi* death, that it should never be sold. Still others claimed that the Government grant expressly said that the land should always remain the property of the Godfrey branch of the Miami tribe. Sawyer defied several owners of the land, and was the cause of the sale once or twice. Gilman
forced Sawyer to leave.
The forest to now becoming valuable as oil territory, and John T. Brush, the baseball magnate of Indianapolis, owns two
hundred acres of It.
