IIINSIIJirS NEIGHBORS' So Far Their Testimony Shows No Evidences of a Struggle. YOUNG WOMAN IN THE CASE. Said to Have Been Seen With Hlnehnw Near IndlanapolH—lndiana Railroads Trying New Schemes to Sure Money. Alleged Bank Wrecker* on Trial. Found In a Pickling Vat—State Items. Danville, Sept. 13.—More of Hinshaw’s neighbors were called by the state yesterday, and the effort to show that no struggle took place in the room and that no retreating footmarks were . found progressed fairly well. How-1 ever, the defense seems to be extremely | well satisfied with the testimony so far j brought forward by the prosecution, I and it is said they have witnesses to prove that men were seen running away from the scene of the tragedy just before the neighbors got to the house. The state has summoned a witness living near Indianapolis who, it is said, will testify that a few evenings before the murder, he saw the young woman whose name has been frequently mentioned in the case, aud a man he thinks was Hinshaw, driving along the road. He talked with the young woman, who said she had just been married, but she did not introduce the man who was with her. The witness afterward found that the girl is not married. NEW SCHEMES TRIED. I Railroads Getting Out Ties and Working Ont Their Owu Road Tax. Logansport, Sept. 13.—Many rail,-, roads of Indiana have recently developed an inclination to maintain exclusive control over everything pertaining to the construction aud repair of roadbed, as well as the equipment and maintenance of rolling stock. At Salem the Monon has just erected a huge stonecrusher, with a capacity of crushing 40 carloads of stone daily, all of which will be devoted to the ballasting of the line. The Pan Handle has lately introduced upon its Chicago division the plan of having its own sectionmen work out its road taxes in the various counties through which it passes. The scheme has met with considerable opposition from the fact that it deprives many men in the different counties of employment. The'Wabash and Lake Erie lines are now obtaining timber for their bridge and tie work through their owu employes, and claim to be making a decided saving. SOUGHT RELIEF IN DEATH. Troubles Too Heavy to Bear—Two Wives and a Bigamy Suit. Frankfort, Sept. 13. —The dead body of Jacob Wambaugh, a painter of this city, was found yesterday along the right of-way of the Vandalia railroad, a short distance from his home. It was a case of suicide, the act apparently having been done three or four days ago, as the body was so decayed as to be hardly recognizable. The body was surrounded by high weeds, and the place where it was found was difficult of access. Wambaugh left a note, saying that he had no wish to live longer. He had been livifig apart from his wife, who is a resident of North Baltimore. Hearing that she had procured a divorce, he married the divorced wife of Sylvester Weaver about three months ago. He afterward heard that his first wife had not remarried; neither had she secured a divorce. She , threatened to prosecute him for Jngamy and he brooded over the matter until he resolved to commit suicide. Alleged B.iuk Wreckers on Trial. Indianapolis, Sept. 13.—A jury has been secured in the trial of Francis and Percy Coffin, accused of bank wrecking, aud yesterday the opening statements were made for the state and defense, Deputy District Attorney Carr appearing for the prosecution and Ferdinand Winter for tffe Coffins.

After enlajg ing upon the responsibilities of the jury, Mr. Smith explained the theory of the defense thus: - ‘‘The defendant, as best he can, will

ten you the history of that fatetui night. Is it to be wondered, gentle- ’ men, that he cannot speak with perfect ’ certainty and accuracy of what occurred ' there that night? Look at the situation, > will you, gentlemen? Quietly sleeping • in his bed, he is awakened by some exi pression of fright from his wife that she i is shot. In the dimness of the room he sees mon, at once gets in contact with them, is shot twice himself, cut, struggled through the rooms, across the street in a moment or two, all in the darkness and confusion. “Could he be expected to give an accurate statement of it all? Had he attempted to do so, it might well be maintained that the story had been invented when the man was cool and collected. He will tell you the story as best he can recollect it.” Mr. Smith went into a thorough explanation of the testimony to be presented by the defense, occupying the whole of the afternoon with his statement.

, THOMAS' OLD SOLDIERS Annual Reunion of the Army of the Tennessee. ADDRESS BY FRED GRANT.

I S Cincinnati, Sept. 17.—The twentyseventh annual reunion of the Army of the Tennessee convened yesterday in this city, and many distinguished members were present.

Governor Mc- | Kinley welcomed the veterans to the state and Mayor Caldwell spoke on be- , half of the city. | The president, General Grenville M. Dodge, responded for the society, after ' wlh 3|| Er a COLONEL FRED GRANT. which Colonel Frederick D. Grant made the oration of the evening. Colonel Grant’s address outlined General Grant’s plan of campaign for closing the war, and described the order in which General Grant would have narrated the story in the second volume of his memoirs Iffid his life been spared. Upon being appointed lieutenant general and assuming command, General Grant had an interview wilt President Lincoln, who wanted someone to take the responsibility of action and call upon him for supplies, the president pledging the full powers of the government in rendering all assistance possible. . > General Grant then planned movements for all of the armies to move at once. He regarded the army of the James as the left wing, the army of the Potomac as the center and the troops operating under Sherman, of which the army of the Tennessee was a most important part, as the right wing, all other troops being co-operative colums. By continuously hammering against the confederate armies he proposed to destroy both them and their sources of supply. On May 4 the army of the Potomac moved, and on May 6 all were moving. By May 11 the southern troops were forced to act entirely on the defensive and the union lines had been considerably advanced. The second phase of the plan was to keep the enemy within the besieged cities, Richmond, Petersburg and Atlanta, and actively engage the outside troops, to drive all the smaller commands to the south, to devastate the country from which supplies were drawn and to destroy those who gathered these supplies. On to Chattanooga. Bloomington, Ills., Sept. 17.—Vice President Stevenson, accompanied by his son Lewis and daughter Letetia, departed last night for Chattanooga.

Other banks, apparently disinterested, Have offered gold in exchange for silver certificates. Several of the banks offered gold suspected of being a little under weight, as it was stipulated that it be received at its face value. Some conditions imposed by western banks could not be accepted, but in all cases where the government consistently could do so the offers have been accepted. Another I«*ne of Bond*.
