Events of the Day Specially Prepared For Our Readers—lnteresting Newsy Gossip of Tndianians and Their Doings—Minor News In a Brief Form. Osgood, Ind., July 27. —Drs. A. F. and E. P. Joseph, father and son of this place, have been arrested under a warrant charging them with assaulting and robbing Herman Kamman and wife at their residence, two miles east of Milan, on Friday morning, July 23. Mr. and Mrs. Kamman are the aged parents of Postmaster Kamman of Milan. The Josephs gave bond for SSOO each for their appearance at the pleliminary trial which is set for tomorrow. The arrest was the result of a recognition by a daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Kamman, who formerly lived in this vicinity. Mr. Kamman was in Versailles the evening before the robberv. and expected to receive $.500 in payment of a mortgage which he held against Mr. Butt, husband of his daughter. NEW FEEL FOR WAR VESSELS. Anderitun Man's Invention Permits the Use of Oil Instead of Coal. Anderson, Ind., July 27.—Frank M. Reed of this city has made application for a patent on a devise for using oil instead of coal on war vessels. The system makes it possible for some of our largest war vessels to curry fuel sufficient to last on a trip around the world. Gas is generated from the oil by an atomizing plan, is smokeless and capable of 33 per cent more heat than the government is now getting from coal, making it possible to work up to great speed. Instead of 30 stokers, which are now necessary on a great war vessel, one man could handl. all the valves. A storage tank is provided that is absolutely bullet and shell proof. The cost of the equipment is very small and would be paid for in a month or so in the saving of the fuel. MISTAKEN IMPRESSION. Two-Year-Old Child Given Concentrated Lye For Licorice.

CAMPAIGNING IN INDIANA ISSUES ON WHICH THE NEXT CONTEST WILL BE BASED. Lockw«n*d Interviews Five Hoosier Members on the Probable Efiect of Legislation Upon the Voters of the State- Mistaken Prophecy by Some of Them, Since They Disagree Politically. From Our Special Correspondent. Washington, July 28. —The close of the extra session, which marks the conclusion of the first chapter in the history of the new administration, opens a field for speculation as to the effect of its legislation upon public opinion, and especially is this problem an occasion for solicitude among the politicians of Indiana, a state much given to the tidal wave habit, and which is within a year to begin the struggle attendant upon the selection of a senator. There is a divergence of opinion on this subject among the members of the Indiana delegation in congress, which shows that both parties will enter the campaign in Indiana next year full of fight. Among the members of the Indiana delegation who took the most active interest in the legislation of the extra session were Major Steele, who, as a member of the ways and means committee, was an active factor in the framingof the Dingley bill; Mr. Henry, who, like Mr. Steele, represents a distinctively industrial district; Mr. Crnmpacker, who has been one of the most aggressive among the new members of the house, and on the i Democratic side Representatives Robinson and Miers, both of whom made their maiden oratorical efforts on the floor of the house in speeches condemnatory of the Dingley law. As revealing the lines of future campaigning in Indiana, the opinions of these members concerning the work of the extra session and its effect upon the political outlook in Indiana will be of interest. —»**— “I believe that the wishes of the conn- ! try as indicated at the polls in November last,” said Major Steele to your correspondent after the Dingley bill re- i turned from conference, “have been fully followed in the framing of the tariff law, which, as its title states, is calculated to afford adequate revenue for the government and encourage the industries of the United States. The | chief need of the country was the immediate passage of such a law, and the < house acted wisely in giving the measure a clear track. The treasury has been rescued from danger and conditions favorable to the development of American I industry have been restored. As a legacy from the Wilson bill, the warehouses of the seaboard are filled to overflowing with merchandise imparted in anticipation of a protective measure, i This will retard the restoration of the conditions which prevailed under the McKinley bill, but the house, which passed the Dingley law within a few days after the convening of the extra session, and which adopted it immediately after its return from conference, is not to be held responsible for this de- I lay, which is chargeable to non-Repub-lican influences in the senate and Democratic opposition in the same body. The strenuous opposition which the Democratic party in congress has offered to the law shows that the protective principle is still a vital issue in politics. The state of Indiana, which made such splendid progress along the line of industrial development under the McKinley law, is- not likely to cast, its vote in favor of the restoration of such a law as the Wilson bill, which has thrown its shadow over the entire country for the past four years. The industrial interests of Indiana are amply protected in the Dingley bill, and there is certain to be a revival of business which will play havoc with the free silver propaganda in our state. ” “I do not believe that the work of the extra session is satisfactory to the Republicans of Indiana or to'the country,” I Representative Robinson said. “By ! successive promises prosperity was to ' come on the defeat of Nir. Bryan, on the election of Mr. McKinley, on his induction into office, on the calling of the special session and on the passage of the ■ tariff bill. All these successions have passed into history and people of all parties are still waiting in hope that promises tot break alljjrecords in itsjjstrain upon patience. Notwithstanding that the minority party announced that it would not obstruct thejpassage of a tariff bill, save to show up its demerits to ' the country, the majority in congress, for over four months, has exhibited a vicious struggle for the spoils of taxation, a battle royal among trusts and combines. Every interested industry, for weeks and weeks and from time to time, has been elevated by hope and depressed by fear, and this state of tension lasted till the day of final adjournment. This uncertainty that came from an attempt to legislate for trusts, at the expense of the people, has resulted in a general lack of confidence and demoralization, so that it may be truthfully said today that neither the taxed nor the sharers in the bounty, not even the sugar trust, so favored, are satisfied. Though it was not desired by the minority that those in power should enact general legislation, yet it is evident that I the country justly demanded the passage of the senate Cuban resolution by the house, as well as a bankruptcy bill. In addition to this thousands of pension bills, many passed by the senate, should have been passed by tho house, all of which could have been done without interference with the general policy. It is evident that these shortcomings will be disastrous in Indiana to the party in power.” I **♦ Representative Henry ventures the opinion that congress has never more quickly and more faithfully carried out

r> special commission delivered to it by the people. “The commission given by the >;>st November election to the l ittyfifth congress,” he said to your correspondent, “was twofold in character. First, that it should not authorize ’the , free coinage of silver at 16 to 1. Second. that it should give tho country a tariff law winch would produce enough revenue, and at the same time enable the producers of the I nited (states to furnish American products to American consumers without unfair competition from foreign producers. The first required no action—it was simply negative in its character. The second required a careful and painstaking revision of the tariff law. The house acted quickly and sent to the senate a new tariff bill on March 31. Since then, carefully regarding the commission of the people, it has continually refused, notwithstanding Democratic clamor, to take up anv other legislation. Waiting patiently month after month, the house has now ; finished its work and the members go back to the people with the assurance that they have conscientiously and faithfully obeyed the mandate of their constituents. “No part of the country will be more benefited by the new tariff law than will the state of Indiana. Already, in anticipation of the effects of the new law. the various industries of the state have taken on new life and the industrial benefits which will follow its enactment are even now partially realized. The politics! effect in Indiana cannot be doubtful. Last fall the state .gave its verdict unhesitatingly in favor of sound money and a protective tariff. With a certainty that a treasury surplus will take the place of the treasury deficit, which has continued all the time the Wilson law has been in force, confidence will be restored. With the workshop busy, heretofore idle laborers fnlly employed, better prices for the products of the farm and ready sale for all that the various industries will produce, the people will soon forget the sad days of the administration of Grover Cleveland. The Republican party must be benefited by the results of this legislation. The people will not hesitate to continue in power a party which has quickly responded to their wishes and needs. With the praiseworthy record of the last state legislature before them and a clean administration of state affairs, coupled with the influence of Republic-1 an management of the national government. the Republican party in Indiana need have no fears concerning the election in 1898.” —♦** — “The issue of the last campaign,” said Mr. Miers, “the currency question, has been wholly ignored by the extra session. The work of the session shows that congress has not been governed by the will of the people, but has been controlled by the trusts and combines of the country. No legislation has been permitted except that of passing the tariff bill. The trill enacted will increase the power and weal of the trusts and the burdens of the people. In the mad rush to pass a tariff law that will assist the combines to accumulate great fortunes, the interests of the people have been ignored and the spirit of liberty, honor to the old flag, the right of every American citizen to prrfer-tion from indignity and insult has been forgotten. Not even a resolution of sympathy for the murdered and cruelly treated Cubans was permitted to lie introduced. The new tariff bill will not even increase the government’s revenue. It was enacted at the behests of the trusts, solely for their selfish purposes. It will largely increase their profits and the price of the article to the consumer. It is no wonder that at the close of the session we find business stagnant, less money circv’ ting among the people, more men out of employment aad less confidence than when the session began. The factories, instead of being opened, as our Republican friends promises, are closed, wages are reduced and the men are out on a strike by reason of reduced wages. The Republican advance agent of prosperity has proven to be a false prophet. Prosperity cannot be restored on a suppressed circulation and the high price of money under a gold standard, extravagant appropriations and a tariff constructed on the plan of affording protection to the great I corporations without reference to the i will of the people, no matter how much revenue it will raise. It can only be restored by a general retrenchment in public expenditures and an increase of the circulation by restoring the silver dollar.” —**» — “The wisdom of the house in refusintr to consider general measures,” said Representative Crumpacker, “will De fairly indicated with time. A revenue i law was imperatively demanded by the 1 fiscal condition of the government, and the Dingley bill, in the form in which it became a law, is in my judgment the best revenue measure with incidental protection that was ever passed by the American congress. It will produce ample revenue to defray all expenses of the government, fortify the gold reserve and furnish adequate protection to American industries. The ‘endless chain’ has already eeused to operate, bondselling has become unnecessary, and I confidently predict that the country will soon enter upon an era of prosperity not surpassed in all its history. The business revival will come gradually, like the recovery of health after a long siege of sickness, but it will come surely and steadily. Congress has done its full duty, and renewed enterprise will soon be discovered in all lines of production. The political effect cannot help but be highly beneficial to the Republican party in Indiana and elsewhere.” Colonel William R. Holloway is said to have in sight the reward for his patience. About Sept. 1, so gossip savs, he is to be named as consul general to St Petersburg. This is not the most | desirable of the consulates, but it is also a whole lot better than many cf them. George B. Lockwood.

Depression of Spirits so common in summer-time, accompanied by loss of energy, lack of thought-power, means a deficient supply of nourishment. The vital force is lost. It isn’t a question of muscle and sinew, but of resistance and endurance. At any age, but especially in youth, it involves the risk of lung disease. . Loss of flesh and a cough are threatening signs. SwE&nuiton of Cod-liver Oil, with the hypophosphites, meets these cases perfectly. It tones up, fattens and strengthens. In Scott's Emulsion the taste of the oil is fully disguised, making it almost as palatable as milk. For sale at soc. and SI.OO by all druggists. Scoi r & Bowne, Mfg.
