Entered at the postoffice in Decatur, With every improvement in the Mexican situation our jingoes become more unhappy. They are still shrieking lor intervention. Having, lor reasons satisfactory to themselves, made up their minds that intervention was the only policy that could possibly succeed, they are now trying to show that the presidents program is doomed to failure. Yet the outlook today is so much beter than it has been at any time during the last two years as to make the talk of intervention utterly foolish. Only a few days ago the Huerta government officially declared that Mr. Lind s presence in Mexico would be undesiraible unless lie came with credentials. and was prepared to recognize Huerta. Yet Lind was Tuesday received—unofficially, to be sure—by the foreign minister of Mexico. The government that only last week intimated that it might deport Mr ' Lind, now receives him. Surely this I changed attitude gives some reason | lor hope- Scarcely leSs important is I the refusal of Japan to receive General biaz officially. Huerta, it is I known, was counting on at least th? moral support of the Japanese gov- ! eminent. He is not to have it. The British government also explains that its recognition of Huerta was merely “provisional." and that the action was taken because it seemed wise at the time, and was recommended by the British representative in Mexico. Neither Japan nor Great Britian has any interest in the Huerta government. —Indianapolis News.

WAS OVERRULED Ni , of Special Judge Thompson A Overrules Motion to Dis- >* o miss Remonstrance _ u IN THE LIQUOR CASE ° p Also Sustains Motion of Remonstrators to Strike Out Appeal of Others. 1 i Late Wednesday afternoon Special .'udge Thompson in the Delaware circuit court at Muncie, gave his ruling , on the two motions in the Murray lictel company's appeal lor the grant- < lug of a liquor license in the Second ward, whien was laKen to the Dels * war e circuit court on a change of venue. •' Special Judge Thompson overruled the motion of the Hotel company t i dismiss the remonstrance, which the ' hotel company alleged should have been filed five days before the meet- 1 ing of the Adams county board of commissioners, instead of only three days. I 7 lie judge also sustained the motion of the remonstrators to strike out from the appeal all the other applicants, who are Curley Rademack- ’ or. Bon Knapke, Morton Andrews and ‘ Lase Ellis- This teeano that the case 1 will decide the matter only lor the Murray Hotel company, and not lor ' the four applicants in the similar cases. The lour applicants who wore denied consideration with this case had tiled no appeal bond, this being the reason they were stricken out. A motion had also been filed by the applicants to strike off nine names from the remonstrance, these being individual remonstrances, the appli- ‘ i ants claiming that they had not 1 been tiled soon enough. This motion the court also overruled. 1 HOUSE FOR RENT—9 rooms, bath, electric lights, artificial gas, drove 1 well and city water furnace, everything modern. Close to court house.'.

Koenig of St Mary’s, Ohio, one ol the high officials of the company, sent word that he would be here late tliis afternoon with his grip full ol money required for the "good faith" deposit It is understood that he represents the majority of stockholders ol the old company and for them will lid in the road. If so, they will organize and carry out the plans of the old lor making the road a winner. It it said ihat all butabout $30,000 of stock in the old company Is represented in the movement lead by .Mr. Koenig. Unite early this morning « number of the railway stockholders were in the cits and among them were a number of strangers. As they mingled in tlie vicinity of tile east door of the court house where the sale was advertised to take place, and as there were other "earmarks" characteristic of railroad men apparent, it was supposed by many that they were prospective bidders for the road. Any intentions, however, were carefully concealed from tlie public, each moving quietly in order' to stir up as little competition as possible. The find, move therefore, could not be predicted' in advance and there were pw Ibillties of a prospective buyer trotting out a "dark horse" at any moment. The result of the sale was awaited with much interest. At 3 o'clock Receiver Quinn announced himself ready for bids. A large throng was present, but time passed and not a bid was received. The several -strangers, supposed to te bidders stood about with their grips in their hands, and promptly departed at the hour of the close of thd sale, four o’clock, without bidders. J. H Koenig Tailed to arrive to bid, as j H dieted. and a new order ol : a!” will doubtless be awaited from the court. Democrat Want Ads Pay.
