FIGHTING THE EXTENSION.

Mr. J. H. Blake Declares Against the Street Car E a

ffar

THE WESTERN PLANK ROAD COMPANY SHOWS ITS AGED HEAD.

Mr. Blake Files an Auditor's Deed in the Recorder's Office for All That Portion of tho National Road From Putnam

County to the State Line—The History of the Case.

.".AS**

GEO. W. DAVIS, City Clerk.

The Indianapolis Times of yesterday contained the following: Mandamus proceedings were instituted yesterday before Judge Howe by the Western Plank Road Company against James H. Rice, auditor of state, to compel the auditor to executea deed for that porlays

tion of the old National Road which between the west boundary of Putnam county and the state line, as per terms of sale made by the state in October, 1852, to Gilbert & Wilson, who in turn re-sold it to the plaintifls in the same year. The case was heard by Judge Taylor, yesterday afternoon, and the auditor ordered to make the deed.

Yesterday afternoon a reporter for the Express found the following recorded at the recorder's office

State of Indiana to the Western Plank Roac Company, all that portion of the National road from the western line of Putnam county to the western line of the state of Indiana (auditor's deed).

"Who filed this?" asked the reporter of the auditor. •'Mr. J. H. Blake.

Mr. Blake was seen by the reporter, and gave the following amount of the proceedings: "The National road," said Mr. B^e, "was surveyed and opened from Balti more, Md., to St. Louis, Mo., passing through the states of Maryland, Vir ginia, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Indiana and Illinois. Under the system of internal improvements then existing much work was done on the road. In 1848 congress ceded that portion of the road in Indiana to the state. In 1852, by an act of the legislature, the auditor of state was ordered to sell same on the 1st of October, 1852, Ealph Wilson and Curtis Gilbert bought that portion of the road from Putnam county to the western line of the state. In 1852 they assigned their certificates of purchase from the auditor of state to the Western Plank Road Company, a corporation organized under a special charter by an act of the legislature of January 14, 1850 There were 250 shares of the stock of the Western Plank Boad Company issued, and you can say in to-morrow's paper that Joe Blake owns the

that stock—225 shares. This action in court at Indianapolis was for the pur pose of compelling the auditor to issue the deed." "Will this prevent the street railway company from placing tracks on the road?" "I think it will."

It will be seen that it is Mr. Blake'B intention to fight the extension of the Main street car line to the fairgrounds

From another source—a gentleman who was at one lime county attorney —it was learned that when the road was sold by the state to the Western Plank Road company one of the conditions was that the company should keep the road in repair. [The Western Plank Road Company has been defunct for lo! these many vears.] Whenever the company failed to keep the road in repair then the commissioners of any county through which the road run could deciare the company's contract with the state violated, and order the trustees of the different townships through which the road passed to re pair the road. In 1874 tne county attorney drew up such an order for the commissioners of this county, and it was passed. The stockholders of the Western Plank Road Company went log-rolling in the legislature that winter, and endeavored to have a bill passed legalizing the contract of the state with the company. On the third reading the bill was referred, and has not been heard of since.

Mr. Blake evidently has no design in securing the deed other than to fight the street car company. Several years ago he secured the right of way on the National road from the commissioners to build a street car track from the eastern limits to the fair grounds. The years have rolled by, and no track has been constructed. Now that there is prospects of the street car company extending its tracks over this route, Mr. Blake wants to see who has the strongest claim on the route. The outcome will be watched with interest. The filing of the deed caused considerable comment in court house circles.

The Rink.

The illumination at the rink proved a great success. The Ringgold orchestra, of ten pieces, furnished excellent music. The bass was supended, owing to an engagement at Green castle. On to-night Miss Morrison will be at the rink. Also, the sack race and the drawing of the watch will take place.

THE TERRE HAUTE EXPRESS. SATURDAY MORNING. MARCH 29 I8S-4

Sale of the Terre Hrate Southeastern Practically. Concluded.

The Terms Virtually Agreed Upon and Only Details Left for .v.the Future.

The Express is possessed of infor» mation which authorizes the statement that the Terre Haute & Southeastern railroad has been sold to a syndicate ot local capitalists by the Tuell heirs. The transfer has not yet been made. Negotiations have been pending for some time and have now been so far completed as to make the transfer certain, although Bome minor matters regarding the indebtedness, both bonded and noteB, cannot yet be definitely stated. The gentlemen who are prominent in the purchase of the road are Mr. McKeen and Mr. Collett. The Vandalia road does not become the purchaser, although Mr. McKeen

Prices on tlio Upward Go—Tho Condition of the Wheat drop.

Transactions on 'change, yesterday, were rather light. Prices ruled firm. The bids on white corn are better in this market than in any other western city. The prices offered by Terre Haute people for this cereal have forced Indianapolis parties from the E. & T. H. road, and all white corn shipped off that road finds it way to elevator A. It is too early to speculate on the coming wheat crop. In thiB immediate vicinity wheat looks well, with the exception of a few fields. Early sunshine and April showers may bring many of these fields to the front, and procure from them a fair yield. Taken all in all, the farmer considere his prospects bright. There iB not a great surplus of wheat in the surrounding territory. Our millers are forced to depend on distant states, and have since early last fall. This may in a measure account for the stiff prices offered for Wheat in this market. Farmers to-day are receiving as good a price for that cereal here as shippers in New York.

Runaway.

About two o'clock yesterday afternoon Dr. Tobey, aurist, who lives n«ar the corner of Thirteenth and Sycamore, started to visit a patient in tho country. He borrowed a horse of John Clift, of Clift, Williams & Co. hitched it to his buggy and went to see his patient. On returning he came down Thirteeth street and as heneared the Vandalia railroad a switch engine frightened the horse which became unmanageable. A little eon of tibe doctor who was sitting beside him scrambled out of the back part of the buggy and fell to the ground. A man came to the rescue and picked up the child, bat could afford the doctor no assistance. When the horse started to ion the doctor threw down the lines and jumped from the boggy, but his clothing was caught and he was dragged about twenty feet He finally became detached from the buggy, and was picked np and carried into Allen & Havens' drug store, where it was found he was badly bruised.

one of the leading spirits in the purchase. The Southeastern will be conducted as a distinct corporation.

ON 'CHANGE.

The Vigo Agricultural Society will bold a meeting this forenoon, at which important matters will come up for action. 8everal of the members are in favor of bidding on the fairgrounds which the county commissioners have decided to sell, while others are in a quandary. A powerful competitor in shape of the Trotting Association has sprung up, and, it is said, will endeavor to bid in the grounds, and convert them into a driving park. If the Trotting Association purchases the grounds, the Agricultural Society must either look elsewhere for grounds or make arrangements with the Trotting Association. "What do you think of, the movement of the Trotting Association to bid in the fair grounds?" asked an Express reporter of a member of the Agricultural society, yesterday. "We could prevent the commissioners selling it,

Baid

he, "but I don't

know as we will attempt it. We might have gone in with the Trotting Association and purchased the grounds, but a member of the association proposed that they should purchase the grounds. The grounds could be made a nice thing, both for us and the association but we shall see what will take place."

Another member said: "I should not be surprised if the Agricultural Society 'kicked the the bucket' to-mor-row. It may not do it just then, but the prospects are that no fair will be held here this year."

H111U Jackson Attempts Snicldo by Cutting Her .Throat With A Penknife.

Yesterday forenoon about ten o'clock Millie Jackson, a married woman at No. 611 south Second street, went to the wood shed and attempted to cut her throat with a penknife, but was prevented not, however, before she had made several terrible gashes on her neck. Mrs. Jackson has been living with her cousin, Mrs Blockson who is mistress of No. 611. She came originally from Charleston, 111. Sev eral weeks ago her husband, John Jackson, joined her here, coming from the Illinois town. Last Thursday morning, about one o'clock, a man came to the police station and said that John Jackson, of 611 south Second, was rais ing a disturbance that he was drunk, and wanted to fight the whole neighborhood. It was the wife of this man thatattempted to end her lifeyesterday. A fleshy woman, who sat beside Mrs. Jackson, informed the reporter that Mrs. Jackson was "sort of crazy that she had fits, and was foolish any how." Mrs. Jackson turned her head and drew down a sun bonnet over her face. She is a small woman, was poorly dressed, and her feet were almost bare, When the fleshy woman was asked if Jackson had not raised a disturbance there Wednesday night and Thursday morning, she said, "I believe he did. He was a little drunk avd noiBy. He is a mighty fine man, though, and treats his wife well. There is nothing the matter with her, that I know of, unless she has the devil in her." Just then Jackson made his appearance. His trousers were held on by a leather belt, his eyes were red, and his general appearance denoted that he was capable of showing considerable affection for a bottle filled with whisky. He said he had been very affectionate to his wife, and wanted to get her away where s*e would not be worried. The fat woman (u.id tbat Mrs. Jackson was subject to fits, and that she had five Thursday. The woman is not seriously hurt. Sickness and trouble probably drove her to attempt self-destruction.
