The Jury in the (loben-Tomlin*on

Damage Case Disagrees.

The slander suit of George Goben against John W. Tomlinson came up in circuit court Wednesday. The suit is a sequel to the notorious barn-burning case which was in the court Bome months ago. Goben charges that Tom inson unjustly iccused him of burning the structure and brought suit for damages. The C8FI WHS given to the jury Thursday at ni'On, and after wri-stling with the momentus question un'il Friday morniiiK without reaching an agreement, Judge West called them in and discharged them. The first vote stood eight to four for the defendant but the second ballot stood six to si*, and remained thus to the end.

Liquor License Day.

Yesterday the Commissioners granted liquor license to Howard Nicholson, Otto Schlemnier, E. G. Allen, August Mayer, of this city, John Yyse, of Linden and James Weaver, of New Ross. The application of Tom Herron, of Waynetown, is being bitterly contested. A remonstrance was filed and nearly a hundred citizenB from Waynetown are here giving evidence in the case. A decision will not likely be reached before late to-day.

HUNGRY FLAMES.

Gratify A Rapacious Appetite on the

Mobson Resturant.

Monday morning shortly after 2 o'clock fire broke out in the Surratt restaurant on Washington street and the interior was completely gutted before the flames were gotten under control. The fire was first discovered by officer Dickerson who turned in the alarm. The blaze it is presumed, originated in the kitchen near the stove and the flames were quickly communicated to the second story through a dumb waiter. The fire department did heroic work and succeeded in saving the surrounding buildings although the stock of Lee S. Warner and McClamrock were badly damaged by smoke and water. Surratt placee hie loss at 11,000 with 1900 insurance. The building is owned by the Fry heirs and was fully covered by insurence. Mr. Warner, the clothier, was the heaviest sufferer and estimates his loss at from $10,000 to 812,000. He values his stock at $30,000 on which there iB aa insuranoe of $14,500. The adjusters are now at work 00 his stock and he expects to reopen for business again today or Monday.

Election of Fair Directors. The regular election of directors of the county fair association was held in the small court room last Monday. The election was exceedingly spirited, and life of the indifferent stock holders was made miserable as he was pulled and hauUd about by the two factions. The old board, however, was successful with the exception of Fred Gardener, W. T. Gott, and W. E. Cooley in Union, and E. T. McCrea in Coal Creek. Following is the board elected:

Coal Cieek—W. H. Montgomery.„ Wayne—Arch bailey. Ripley—Jackson McCormick. Brown—Tilghman Easley. Scott—N. G. Kesler. Madison— Win. Z. McBee. Sugar Creek—Silas Peterson. Franklin—Chas E. Butler.

The natural gaB meeting of the city council Monday night waB as big

as big a

frost, as that article itself when the mfrcury in the thermometer is biding itBelf in the bulb. There was practically nothing done which Will benefit the consumer and BB a result many of them threw up their hands in disgust and returned their misers to the company, going back to the good bat sure old fashioned heat, wood and coal. After the action of the council there was positively no hope left for the people They were given to understand that they might go on forever paying for something they were not getting and that they need not look to the city council as a panacea for their troubles. The meeting would have impressed a stranger as one being held in the interest of the gas company at the expense of the people—and fhat is about the correct view of it.

Councilman Binford opened the bail by reading a letter from Mr. Dikes in which he said that the demands of the people of Crawfordsville were absurd and scarcely worthy of coticc. He then reiterated the promises that have made to the consumers for the past two months by the local representative, that when we get Lebanon's supply in our pipes there wo not guarantee it to be adequate, Mr. Binford then stated that he had made a personal inspection of the company's lines and wells and was perfectly satisfied the company was doing the best it could to furnish gas. He then introduced a resolution which was meaningless as it waB lengthy, so far as it would benefit the consumer. It was to the effect that the city would prosecute all persons violating the mixer law and gave the city attorney and the Mayor power to bring suit against the company for failure to supply gas to the citizens as provided for in a certain ordinance adopted on a certain day, etc., in whict it Bays the company 6hall pay $50 per day for each day it fails to furnish sufficient gas to consumers and also provides for damages resulting to individuals therefrom. If such a suit should be brought it would not find a termination in the courts until the present generation will have frozen to death from want of gas. So there you are and the solution of the gas problem is as far away as ever, perhaps farther, for we see the utter uselessness now ot appealing to the city council for relief, the hope we had before was ruthlessly dispelled at Monday night meeting.
