TAKEN ATH1S WORD.

United States Marshal Bede Is Out of a Job.

HIS RESIGNATION IS ACCEPTED.

Refused to Obey the Order Forbidding Officeholder!) front Participating lu Political Campaigns—Attorney

Oeucrar* Turt. Letter.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 25.—The publication iii St. Paul of J. Adam Itede's letter of resignation as United States marshal is regarded at the department of justice aa a suflicieut reason for the publication of the attorney general's letter of acceptance. In the course of his letter Marshal Bede, after unconditionally tendering his resignation because he cannot conscientiously obey the president's order forbidding federal appointees doing campaign work, says: "1 do this because the party to which 1 have ever given my allowance uuU in the principles of which I have an abiding faith, is this year being maligned-by know-nothings and mountebanks and charged with evils that come from others' crimes. "When I must choose between public office and my friends 1 shall tako my friends, and nothing shall stand between my best effort# and their Interests."

Attorney General's Letter.

The attorney general's letter accepting Marshal Hede's resignation Is as follows "I have yours of the 16th in«t.. in which you tender your resignation of the office of United States marshal on the ground that you cannot consistently or conscientiously govern yourself by an order of President Cleveland of 1886, which forbids federal office-holders from engaging in political campaign work. L»"lhave Just been obliged to call for the resignation of a United States marshal, who, beginning a political campaign with speechmaking, ended by shooting, and is now under Indictment for murder. From the tone and temper of your letter, it would not be surprising to ilnd you in the lilt* predicament should you undertake to be a political worker and a United Stutea marshal at the same time. Undue excitement and recklessness are always most inevitable when the ordinary political partisanship is added to the personal interest inseparable from ofUceholdlng. Your resignation as marshal is accepted, to take effect upou the appointment and qualillcaiion of your successor."

Order of the President.

Mr. Cleveland, in his executive order Issued July 14, 1670, says in part: "1 deem this a proper time to especially warn all subordinates in the several departments and all office-holders under the general government against the use of their official positions in uttempts to control political movements in their localities. "Officeholders are the agents of the peoplenot their masters. Not only is their time and labor due to the government, but they should scrupulously avoid, in their political actiou us well as in the discharge of their official duty, offending by a display of obtrusive partisanship their neighbors who have relations with them as public officinls. They should also constantly remember that their party friends from whom they have received preferment have not invested them with the power of arbitrarily managing their political affairs. "Individual interest and activity in political affairs arc by no means condemned. Officeholders are neither disfranchised nor forbidden the exercise of political privileges but their privileges are not enlarged, nor is their duty to purty increased to pernicious activity by office-holding."

Campaign Contributions Forbidden. WASHINGTON, Oct. 25.—Postmaster

General Bissell has addressed a circular letter to all free-delivery post offices in the country relative to forccd campaign contributions. He cites two sections of the civil service law which provide no federal employe shall solicit or receive money for political purposes also, that no officer shall discharge, promote or degrade, or in any manner change the official rank or compensation of any other officer or employe, or promise or threaten so to do, for giving or withholding or neglecting to make any contribution of money or other valuable thing for any political purpose. Mr. Bissell then adds: "The foregoing provisions apply to your office. it being a free delivery post office, and must be strictly complied with. It also must be clearly understood no clerk, carrier or other employe of your office will be Jeopardized In his position for a refusal to comply with a request for a political contribution. Upon the receipt of this letter you will prepare a number of copies thereof and post same conspicuously In each division of your office."

CRAWFORDSVILLE, INDIANA, THURSDAY, OCTOBER325,1894

HE WON'T TALK.

PresUlent Cleveland Decline, to Be Interviewed on New York Polities. NEW YORK, Oct. 88.—The president,

accompanied by Mrs. Cleveland and Mr. and Mrs. E. C. Benedict, arrived in this city from Greenwich, Conn., at 10 a. in. Wednesday.

E. C. llenedict, whose guest the president was in Greenwich, in reply to a question as to the president's views on the democratic situation in New York state said Mr. Cleveland had expressed none. At the headquarters of Senator Hill it was said that nothing had been heard from the president. To a reporter, who asked him if he would endorse Senator Hill's candidacy for the governorship, President Cleveland declined to answer.

The president spent the day with some friends in the law office where he formerly made his headquarters. Mrs. Cleveland went shopping. They will be the guests of Dr. Uryant, the president's physician, until their departure for Washington.

An attempt was made to learn whether President Cleveland intended to register, but it proved futile.

Wednesday evening President Cleveland visited the Broadway theater, arriving there about 7:45 p. m. The party occupied one of the lower proscenium boxes. As soon as it became known that the president was present he was (Treeted with marked applause. The president bowed his acknowledgements and then devoted his attention to the play, "Dr. Syntax."

At the close of the performance the president and party entered a oarriage in waiting. The news of the president's presence had spread and a crowd of considerable size was gathered on the sidewalk to wait for his departure. As he emerged from the theater he was followed

by

three de­

tectives. No demonstration was made by the crowd.

GEORGIA'S LEGISLATURE

It Convenes at Atlanta—Strength of the Populists Forces a Caucus.

ATLANTA, Ga., Oct. 25.--The general assembly of Georgia convened Wednesday. Hon. W. II. Venable, of Atlanta, was elected president of the senate and Hon. W. H. Fleming, of Augusta, speaker of the house. This is the first time in twenty years when there has been any party caucus in the organization of the legislature of Georgia. But the increasing strength of the populists rendered it desirable to the democratic leaders. The assembly will have to elect two senators, one to fill tho unexpired term of the late Alfred II. Colquitt, now being served by Hon. Patrick Walsh the other to fill the full term of six years, beginning March 4, 1895. Walsh has no opposition for election to fill the unexpired term, but for the long term there are four candidates, Hon. A. O. Bacon, Hon. Patrick Walsh, Congressman II. G. Turner and Hon. L. F. Garrard. This will be decided by a cauous nomination and the estimated strength of the four candidates gives Baoon 78, Turner 50, Garrard 22 and Walsh IB' It takes 84 votes to nominate in caucus.

ALL RECORDS FOR A MILE BROKEN.

lis KlricN tlie Distance in 1:35 2 5 Faster by a Tenth of a Second Than the World'* Kecord for Kunniug Horses.

ItVFFAl.o, N. Y., Oct. 25 —John S. Johnson ou Wednesday afternoon rode a mile in the unparalleled time of 1:35 2-5, almost fourteen seconds faster than anjf single rider has ever covered the distance in the world six seconds faster than any tandem has ever traveled the distance, and one-tenth second faster than the world's record for running horses—1:S5X, made by Salvator on a straight track at Monmouth Park, N. J., August 28, 1800.

Johnson rode the course in heavy black tights and two thick sweaters, which tended to impede the free play of liis muscles. But even with these impediments Johnson never budged from his position at the rear of the pace-makers mounted on a quadruplet. and when he crossed the finish line his front wheel was lapped on the rear wheel of the big machine. As the record breaker and the pacc-makiug quartette crossed the tape the features of the men were absolutely indistinguishable. All that could be heard and seen was a roar, a flash of variegated colors and a cloud of dust. Electrical timing arrangements .were provided and each quarter was checked at both start and finish so that there can be no doubt of the accuracy of the performance.

Kuys He Can Do Better.

The official time for the mile was 1:85 2-3. Several club riders made the time 1:85 fiat. Johnson said after dismounting that he finished well within the limit of his power and felt confident that lie can do a mile in 1:80, and will make the effort over the same course this afternoon.

Mure Hcuurdi Lowered.

Louis, Oct. 25.—The cycling record for 100 miles, paced, formerly held by Frank Kedway, of Canada, 5 hours 1 minute, 12 2-5 seconds, was beaten on the Fair Grounds track here Wednesday afternoon by Bert Harding, who went in 4 hours, 37 minutes, 50 4-5 seconds. O. A. Maxwell beat Johnson's 8-mile record, 7 minutes, 15 seconds, going the distance in 7 minutes, 5 8-5 seconds.

CAPTURED A WITNESS.

Friends of I'ollce Officers Under Fire Bloek the Leiow Inquiry.

NKW YOKK, Oct 25.—Counsel Gofl startled the Lexow committee when the.v reconvened Wednesday morning by saying the police had made away with a witness who would give the most sensational testimony yet produced. Mr. Goff said that the witness, a woman who had paid money to high officials, had been stolen at tho dead of night. She had been under surveillance in the day time, but at midnight the police, or their agents, came in a carriage and stole the woman. He said her name was Matilda Hermann. The police or their agents hurried her to Canada, and then to the large cities of the west. Defectives stuck to the trail, and finally ran lier down in Chicago. She consented to come east. In company with the detectives she had been journeying eastward all of Tuesday. When the party arrived in Jersey City Wednesday morning the police of New York had induced t.he police of Jersey City to arrest all the party on a charge of kidnaping. "This woman," explained Mr. Uoff, "will tell how the police raised a fuud to get her and other women of her class out of the city. There is a colony of them now In Chicago waiting for the committee to adjourn."

At Jersey City the Lexow detectives tried to force the woman to go with them and they and the woman were arrested. Justice Potts held, upon tho evidence of Detective Kearney, that Mrs. Ilerrman was a fugitive from justice and committed her to jail for thirty days under bonds of 88,000 to await extradition papers. The Jersey City police then preferred charge* against the Lexow detectives for attempted abduction. iv
