P.
J. Ilogan, a traveling salesman for aMain styjet wholesale house, was landed in jail yesterday morning about four o'clock. Hogan is known among his acquaintances as "The Count," because he is very fastidious in his dress. Sunday night about eleven o'clock, Mrs. Durkan, widow of the late John K. Durkan' complained to the police that she had been beaten black and blue by "The Count," who used a heavy loaded cane. It seems that "The Count" and Mrs. Durkan were "sweet on eachother," and had expectations. The widow had been living at Jhe corner of Fourteenth and Svcamore streets, and concluded that she would move to St. Louis. With this view she sold a portion of her furniture. She told the police that this enraged Hogan and he attacked her. Hogan was brought before Justice Murphy yester day morning, where he plead guilty and was fined $3 and costs. He paid

CAR, CAB AND CABOOSE.
The Workings and Doings of Railroads and Their Employes.
An Elegant Piece of Workmanship.
The intention of running some elegant cars from Evansville to Indianapolia over the E. & T. H. and the Vandalia has received the notice of the press before. Two of these cars passed through the city yesterday afternoon. Their exterior appearance is above the average but is discounted by the interior. They are styled the Leve & Alaen combination sleeping, chair«and buSet car. It presents inside the appearance of a miniature residence with every convenience of a home. The drawing room has a capacity for seating sixteen persons, the chaiis revolving. Against the side of the car in the lunch room sits a finely finished buffet. The car is supplied with berths. There iB also a smoking and wash room which with a closet in the rear of the car complete the accommodations. The finish of the woodwork is cherry, this being an effective set-off to the car's appearance. Raw silk is the material used in draperies and these with pier gli mirrors in abundance give a pleasing and even charming effect. A slight departure in the running gear of the cars is made by having two pairs of wheels, which, by the by, are of paper, instead of three on the truck. A car will be run each way daily between Evansville and Indianapolis. ''"M-

NEW YORK, Sept! 15, 1884., Messrs. MYERS BROS.: Gentlemen—When you were in New York last month we were in "a pinch," and sold you one hundred and thirty large lots of Suits and Overcoats that were worth $40,000 for $13,200 cash. This money for the time being enabled us to successfully weather the financial storm that was wrecking the clothing manufacturers in the great business centers. But things instead of brightening up have grown worse and worse, and we must say that we now find ourselves in a more embarrassed condition than ever. There is no disguising the fact: We must raise a large amount of money by September 25, and if you will say the word we will duplicate your purchase of August (for which ,you paid us $13,200) and give you an extra discount of 20 per cent, which will make your bill $10,560 for goods that would have cost you in a regular way $40,000. We must raise the money.
VI
iS# SAMS'_
Then read the bargains we shall name during this week. Nothing like them ever seen. THE TREMENDOUS TRADE WE HAVE DONE THE PAST MONTH WARRANTED US IN ACCEPTING THIS ALMOST INCREDIBLE OFFER. We knew exactly the general satisfaction which these goods had given our customers at the prices the last purchase was marked. We knew that at an additional 20 per cent reduction we could convert aU these garments into cash within the next thirty days. C. R. A & Co., knew that only such houses as ours could find an outlet for such a large quantity of goods. These goods are now unpacked and will be placed on sale WEDNESDAY MORNING, and they are marked at such prices that will create such a consternation among other clothing dealers that Jiey too will advertise Great Reductions, etc., etc. But do not buy one doUar's worth of clothing for man, boy or child until you have seen the wonderul prices of those great and live Clothiers, whose lace of business is on the corner of Fourth and Hain.
