DURING the first two years of General Harrison's administration, the public debt was reduced $200,000,000. During the first two years of Grover Cleveland's administration the public debt was increased $164,000,000, a difference of $364,000,000.
LADIES now have full rights of voting in three States—Colorado, Utah and Wyoming. It will not be many years until they will vote in a majority of the States and eventually they will have the right of suffrage in all. Great movements get there slowly, but they are certain and sure.
HELEN M. GOUGEK, of! Lafayette, this State, was this week defeated a second time in her $25,0011 damage suit against Congressman Morse, of Massachusetts, for slander. It seems that he, in discrediting her as a political speaker, insinuated that she worked for or with the party that was best for her individual interests, and referred to her as a "Soldier of fortune." Two judgments have been decided in favor of Morse. Helen Gouger enjoys notoriety, and may be satisfied with what she obtained from the triali.
IIOL.D HIGHWAY RUBBERS.
They Are Becoming Quite Numerous, Last night about 7 o'clock, Jas. A. Eastes who lives Southeast of the city four miles, was stopped just below H. C. Rumrills, on the Fountaintown pike as he was walking home and robbed of $25.00. He said the man walked up, grabbed his beard and demanded his money, which he of course refused. The man then jammed his hand in his pocket and securing the pocket book ran back to Greenfield, where he was followed by Mr. E. who describes the man as tall and slim. It is supposed the robber, who ever he was, saw Mr. Eastes with the money at McLaughlin's saloon where he was just before he started home. That thief ought to be captured.
Milt Willett, who lives east of Philadelphia, was at Indianapolis yesterday and sold a load of barley at the brewery. Last night at dark when he was at the bridge just east of Cumberland two men drove up in a buggy and one jumpiDg out asked to ride with him. He recognized the man as one who saw him get the money at Indianapolis, so he whipped his horses into a run and escaped, although the man gave him a good chase. The men had followed him from the city for the purpose of robbery.
Fuot pads seem to have abandoned the cities and gone to the country to rob people. A man near Hagerstown was held up a few nights ago as he was returning from his day's work. He had received $1.10 far his day's work—husking corn. The thieves took this money, and on his saying it looked like he was in hard luck, they said we are also in hard luck and will have to take it.
Noble "Warrum, Jr., Elected State Senator In Cache County. Utah. While the State of Utah went Republican at the recent election, some counties did not, and among them was Cache county, the home of our esteemed young friend, Noble Warrum, Jr. The county, which is the fourth in population in the State, is a fine one, and Mr. Warrum was elected State Senator. The total vote was 2,693, or a little over half the vote of Hancock county. Mr. Warrura's majority was 426, which was the highest on the entire State and county ticket, the next highest to it being a candidate for representative who had a majority of 397. The Democratic majority for Governor was 35.). Warrum's majority in his new home speaks well for his popularity and hustling qualities. He has for some time been Probate Judge in that county, but is now State Senator. With his ability and from one of the leading counties, he should and will have considerable influence in the legislature. His old father, Noble Warrum, Sr., who is one of Hancock county's oldest, wealthiest and most respected citizens, having been a member of the legislature twice, rejoices at his son's prosperity and bright prospects. Mrs. Warrum, being a daughter of ex-County Treasurer and ex-County Commissioner Andrew Hagan, also has numeron relatives and friends who are glad to learn that the lives of herself and husband have fallen in pleasant places.

Lillian, 9-year-old daughter of F. M. Carpenter, on Swope street, is a new case, and there is also one on Broadway.
The little nine-year-old son of E. J. Jeffries died from diphtheria jesterday and was taken to the old home near Carmel today for barial.
REYIEW OF TRADE.
Money Not Disturbed, but Wheat Still Perplexes.
HOW IT GOES IN PIG IRON.
Remarkable Demand For Clay Worsteds Has Increased the Price of Woolen Goods Ten Per Cent —Danger of a Cotton '.-.Famine Out of the Question—Failures
For the Week. NEW YORK, NOV. 16.—R. G. Dun & Company's weekly review of trade today says:
The scare about gold exports had no real significance, and although $2,250,000 more will go out today, the stock market has been recovering. There was and is a substantial cause of difficulty, in the fact that exports of products have been too small to meet the greatly increased imports of merchandise. The collapse of Kaffir speculations abroad has forced many to realize on Americans held, and the impression that our government may have to borrow again also operates to our disadvantage. But there is no local disturbance of money markets.
The government monthly crop report lias caused, as usual, rather more uncertainty as to its interpretation than previously existed as to crops. The cotton statement, lacking account of acreage on which it is based, was of only speculative value, and the mere rumor that Mr. Neill had reduced his estimate of the crop actually weighed more than the official estimate. The bottom fact is that even a smaller crop than anybody expects, with th^,3,000,000 bales carried over, will assuredly prevent any famine in cotton. Meanwhile, the exports decrease 36 per cent in quantity.
Wheat, perplexes the oldest inhabitant. There is really little reason to expect a yield larger than last year, but western receipts, 8,202,864 bushels, against 4,026,639 last year, do not mean scarcity of wheat. Probably it is true that the attempt to induce farmers to keep back their wheat in July has ended, as usual, in much bigger sales at lower prices in November, and prices have now declined so far that, for the first time in many months. Atlanta exports exceed those of a year ago, having been for two weeks, flour included, 3,260,384 bushels, against 3,193,111 last year. The decline, nearly 1 cent, is not much, but does not mean confidence in renewed advance.
Corn is scarcely lower, but without the aid of government all know that the supply will largely exceed all home and foreign demands.
The output of pig iron Nov. 1 was 217,306 tons weekly, about 10 per cent larger than ever before, and a continuance of the same production for six weeks more would make the half year's output, 5,350,000 tons, about 450,000 tons greater than in any other half year. The startling fact is that the demand for products of iron and steel falls off, notwithstanding the increase in output of pig, and though only a few concerns have closed or reduced work or wages on account of lack of orders, prices are sinking, having declined 2.7 per cent for the week and 6.4 per cent from the highest point. Bessemer pig, billets, grey forge, bar, tank steel plates, structural angles and wire nails have all sold lower within the past week, though quotations are kept up as fas as possible by associations.
Minor metals are, on the whole, lower, though tin lias stiffened a little, but lake copper sold at 11 1-2 cents and is weak. Lead is decidedly weak on account of foreign consumption, and is quoted at 317 1-2. The woolen manufacturer has to meet this year with two difficulties, the remarkable demand for clay worsteds, which has encouraged an advance of 10 per cent in price and the heavy import of woolen goods, which have amounted for nine months of the current year to 58,456,402 pounds, against 13,907,068 last year and 30,398,465 in the same months of 1892.
But sales of wool continue large for two weeks of November 12,192,950 pounds, against 12.289,600 in 1893, in spite of the fact that part of the works are closed or working only part force.
For the past week failures have been 283 in the United States, against 270 last year, and 49 in Canada, against 38 last year.
THEATRICAL SWINDLER.
B. H. Karl ol' Cincinnati Comes to Orief in Texas. SAN ANTONIO, Tex., Nov. 16.—Mr. B. H. Esirl of Cincinnati is in jail here charged with swindling. He has been here but 10 days, but in that time has swindled at least 100 young women out of money in sums ranging from $25 to 50 cents. His scheme was to advertise that the firm of Walcott & Earl of Cincinnati was an agency for securing theatrical positions to all who would apply. He opened an office and did a great business until yesterday morning, when the police placed him under arrest and will hold him in jail for the purpose of identificatio of all who were swindled.
Cabmen'« Strike Over.
NEW YOKK, Nov. 16.—The strike of cab drivers and stablemen, which promised Thursday to paralyze travel by hired vehicles in the city an indefinite time, fell through yesterday when most of the men who had been ordered out by the Liberty Dawn association, to support the demands of the employes of Seaich's stables, returned to work. Seaich's men are still on strike, but the company sent out 40 ca^driven by nonunion whips, each of wifom was guarded by a pol'. :eman in civilian's dress.
Longest Yet Undertaken.
WASHINGTON, NOV. 16.—The military cyclists have completed arrangements for a relay ride from here to New York city to begin at noon Sunday, Dec. 1. The distance is 249 1-2 miles, the, time allowance 23 horns and 20 men will cover the 10 relays. This is said to be the longest relay ever undertaken in this country by a military company, or any organization of limited membership.
Transfusion of lilood.
MONTREAL, NOV. 16.—Professor William Oster of Johns Hopkins university nrrived here yesterday to attend R. L. Gault, the Canadian cotton king, who is dying with Bright's disease. Asa last effort to save him transfusion of llood is being resorted to.
.The Historic Route.
The Nashville, Chattanooga & St. Louis Railway, the model' railroad of the Soufh in equipment, roadway and service is also the greatest in historical interest, more than fifty famous battlefields and five national cemeteries being located on the various lines of this system. This is the preferred route to Atlanta for the Cotton State and International exposition, opeu from September 18, to December 31,1895, for which very low excursion rates have been made. Through sleeping car service from St. Louis to Atlanta via Evansville, Nashville and Chattanooga. This is the route of the famous "Dixie Flyer" through sleeping car line which runs the year round between Nashville and Jacksonville, Fla. For further information address R. C. Cowardin, Western Passenger Agent, Railway Exchange Building, St. Louis, Missouri, or

The Banner of Light is, as every one know3,one of themost successful denominational publications issued in this country.
In its 77th volume it is at once conservative and bright, discussing not only modern Spiritualism, but frequently landing its influence fearlessly in matters of public importance outside its principal field.
Mr. John W. Day, who is the editor and one of the proprietors, writes in The Banner of Light as follows to the proprietors of Paine's celery compound: "I owe you a debt of gratitude in placing OH the market such a nerve-easing and and soothing remedy as Faines' celery compound. It was brought to my notice by a friend who had himself been greatly relieved by its use, as I have also been. "I have frequently taken occasion to commend Paine's celery compound to others, and I do not kuow an instance wherein, if faithfully tried, it has not worked a benefit. "Yours truly, John W. Day."

No other trialn Is BO well equipped for the task he self-imposed. He has been a conspicuous figure in Indiana almost continuously since It was admitted to Statehood:. He tfras secretary of the Constitutional Convention, and his personality is strongly marked in the organic law as well as In much of subsequent legislation. His great wealth has afforded him opportunities for devoting his entire attention to literary labor. His: in'timacy with public men and State and Federal officials, has given him exceptional facilities for gaining access to documents necessary to Insure thoroughness and exactness in the preparation of his history. After several years of ardent devotion and labor, undertaken in a spirit of State pride amd for pure love of it, the publication of "THE CONQUEST OF THE NORTHWEST" will cause him to be kindly remembered as an Indianian whose motives have been often misconstrued, and whose real worth as a man and citizen has been often Ignored by unreasonable political bias and human na-j ture's inherent prejudice against men o£ Immense wealth.—Lafayette ^Courier*
