Twenty Thousand Dollars Claimed For Malicious Prosecution—Republican State Committee Elect Officers Ex-President
Harrison Indorsed For the Presidency if He Is a Candidate—Other Indiana News. INDIANAPOLIS, Jan. 29.—William Gam-
bold, a railroad brakeman, has begun suit against the Pennsylvania Railroad company and F. C. Darlington, superintendent of the Indianapolis division, for $25,000 damages for malicious prosecution.
The suit is the outgrowth of the American Railway union strike of 1894 and is brought as a test case. Gambold, with John Buck, H. Rabold and Tom Moriariety, American Railway union strikers, were charged by Darlington with having "killed" a switch engine, after driving off tli3 engineer and fireman and violating the injunction of Judge Woods. Darlington was at that time a deputy United States marshal, having been sworn in on July 4.
Gambold was arrested at Terre Haute, brought to this city and kept in jail for 10 days. He was tried in the federal court and acquitted. The defense will be based on the proposition that Darlington was a sworn federal officer at the time he made the affidavit, and that neither Darlington, as a deputy United States marshal, nor the railway can be held responsible.

Ex-President Harrison Indorsed For the Presidency If He Is a Candidate.
INDIANAPOLIS, Jan. 29.—The Republican state central committee yesterday afternoon unanimously adopted tlie following resolution: "After a full and free individual expression upon the subject, resolved that the officers and members of this committee, each for himself and jointly as the constituted organization of the party in Indiana hereby express the truest loyalty to General Harrison and to his renomination and re-election as president of the United States, should he become a candidate.''

John K. Gowdy was re-elected chairman after the hottest light ever known in the state, and Robert Mansfield was elected secretary of the state central committee. All the prominent Republicans of the state were in attendance and the interest was unbounded.

FOREIGN AFFAIRS AND FINANCE.
Subjects Discussed in the .Senate—ProceedI ings in the House. I WASHINGTON, Jan. 29.—Foreign af
fairs and finance occupied the attention of the senate yesterday. Mr. Thurston of Nebraska vigorously upha'/t a strong application of the Monroe ictrine and was at times warmly applauded for the patriotic ring of his sentiments. Senator Turpie of Indiana *ou.ched on the Turkish atrocities in brief but very energetic speech, in whfch he declared that the resolution just passed by congress should be followed: by a blow or a shot, which should -Jl'ash through the sultan's seraglio, sweeping back Mohammedanism a'Hd advancing Christianity.
Mr. Voorhe»«
of
Indiana who was un
til recently ^airman of the finance committee, Epoie in advocacy of the remonetizs^cion
of
silver and sharply
arraigned those responsible for the elimination of silver from the coinage. Mr. Gray of Delaware urged the advantage of a gold standard. His speech was notable in its presentation of the fluctuations of prices showing them to result from invention and natural causes arid not from silver demonetization.
Mr. Clark of Wyoming spoke in favor of silver coinage. Another effort was made by Mr. Jones of Arkansas, in charge of the silver bond bill, to have the vote fixed for Thursday. Mr. Hill objected, however, and Mr. Jones notified senators to prepare for a test of endurance on Thursday, as he would ask them to sit until a vote was taken.
A fruitless discussion of the resolution to inquire into the arrest of Eugene V. Debs occurred during the day, but action was deferred.
Mr. Palmer presented resolutions of respect to the memory of the late Representative Remann of Illinois, and as a mark of respect the senate, at 5:45, adjourned.
The session of the house W£LS brief. Contrary to general expectation the diplomatic and consular appropriation bill precipitated no discussion whatever. None of the foreign complications was even mentioned and the bill was passed in less than an hour. The appropriations carried by the bill are about $100.000 in excess of those appropriated for the current fiscal year.
Mr. Hadley (Rep., Ills.) then announced the death of his predecessor, Frederick Remann, from the Eighteenth Illinois district, July 14, 1895. Appropriate resolutions were adopted after which, at 2:35 p. m., the house, as a further mark of respect, adjourned.

He was arrested and protested innocence of any complicity in the crime.
The latest reports concerning Mr. David Bartley, the partner who skipped out the day before the firms assigned, is that he is now in Mexico. He has written from there and is said to have assumed all responsibility for the insurance of receipts.

On Feb. 1, in latitude 00 degrees, longitude 172 degrees 81 minutes, wo ran into open water again, having this time spent only six days in the ico pack. On the 17tli the aurora appeared, stronger than I ever saw it in the north. It rose from the southwest, stretching in a broad stream up toward the zenith and down again toward the eastern horizon. The phenomenon this time had quite a different appearance from what we saw on Oct. 20. It now presented long shining curtains rising and falling in wonderful shapes and shades, sometimes seemingly close down to our mastheads. It evidently exerted considerable influence upon the magnetic needle of our compass.—C. E. Borchgrevink in Century.
One Drawback.
There's no such thing in this life as complete satisfaction. .If a man has no money, he is miserable, and if he has lots of it, it is next to impossible to invest it remuneratively. There is no business which is sure to pay, not even the business of stealing, but that's because there are so many persons in it, and there would be many more in it if the penitentiary did not prevent it from being open to everybody, and so be utterly rained.,—Boston Transcript.
