STATE EXCHANGE TABLE. Governor Porter’s Course Warmly Indorsed by the County Press. Jhe Action of the Legislature Universally Condemned—How Shall the State’s Prisons Bo Conducted? The Profits of a Street Railway. Indianapolis Saturday Review. Has anyone ever taken the trouble to calculate the certainty of the revenue of a streetcar line? Look along the Massachusetts avenue route above Michigan street to the end of the line, or look along the Illinois street line to North street and beyond. Every house on these lines as indicated, and so on all the lines in the city, can be depended upon to contribute to tiie coffers of the Citizens’ street-car line to a greater or less extent. Not a house will fall below SSO a year, while others will yield $250 and S3O0 —an average may be struck at SIOO from each house*. Street-car lines are a bonanza. The new company can well afford to sprinkle its tracks during the summer. The old company cannot afford it. It only made $40,000 fast year. Republicans Will Honor Governor Porter. Frankfort Banner. The Republicans of Indiana will honor Governor Porter for the fearless manner in which he discharged the duties of his high office, despite ttic threats of the opposition. His veto messages have been able State papers. especially the one vetoing the Metropolitan police bill. Governor Porter has in an able, courteous manner advised the Legislature to do those tilings which would benefit all y\v people, and leave undone the things which would only injure the best interest of the people. He lias performed his, duty to the State, and in doing so has honored himself and the party he represents. The Mmt Extravagant for Forty Year*. Oxford Tribuno The sweet-scented Legislature is no more. The sober, independent voter should pause to think. Every citizen is free to say the Senate was drunk during the last week, without fear of a slander suit. It has been the most extravagant Legislature for forty years, voting thousands of dollars to private needs, employing extra help, then donating to each of them from SOO to SIOO extra, and each act was contrary to law, and yet failed to pass the" general appropriation bill tn order that they might have the Governor to call an extra session. A “Flip” Gathering, Wfilj'aah Courier (Deni.). The Legislature lias disbanded, and the alleged statesmen who only a few brief days ago were boarding at the big hotels in Indianapolis and wiping their noses on perfumed napkins havs returned to their humble homes to be cursed or praised as they deserve by their constituents. All in all it was a gathering, and should the State never aee the like again the loss thereby to the State Would not be irreparable. In looking oyer the work accomplished one is gratified that so little which isTeally bad was accomplished. The Treatment of Prison Convicts. Richmond Palladium. The question is whether, for the sake of saving something in their supervision, something in their conduct, and for the purpose of making a small sum out of their services, it is best to continue to crush the spirit of the convicts, to make them feci all the degradation possible, to stultify every kindly impulse and noble aspiration, that they may come out thoroughly hardened and remorseless, or to treat them like men, and to use all the means of elevation and enlightenment to teach them to be men.

Should Have the Hose Turned on Him. %~Bt'T 'Bom.). a ‘ e Senator Jason B. Brown is brilliant in uebate, but with vile liquor he frequently drowns out all the decency ii his character and floats to the surface an amount of blackguardism one would scarcely expect to encounter in the lowest “burn” th it ever wallowed in the gutter or begged a meal. The very indecent language which he employed in his “confab” with Senator Bell should cause his constituents to turn the hose on him the moment he arrives at home. No Excuse for the Democrats. Columbus Republican. There is simply just no excuse for the Democrats not passing the appropriation bills except to compel the Governor to send in his veto of the police bill before the expiration of the time allowed him by law and compel Republicans to cease opposition to the bill or see the appropriations fail. They not only chose to see the appropriations fail rather than tiie police bill, but they chose that they should fail rather than it should run any risk of failure. Governor Porter ut Lawrencebtirg. Madison Courier. The Lawrencebtirg Press makes a strange attack upon Governor Porter in its last issue. Lawrencebufg people talk entirely different from the Press in regard to the Governor. One of the Courier staff* was in that city only yesterday, and to him many of the leading citizens spoke freely, condemning the Press attack as wholly unwarranted by the facts in the case. They represented that Governor Porter's conduct had been entirely satisfactory to them. The Democracy Han Extinguished Itself. Indianapolis Republican. It is a pitiable state of aftairs when the people's representatives in a great State disregard the commonwealth to do the bidding of a few bosses and ward-workers in one city. The Democratic majority in the late Legislature has extinguished itself and ruined its oarty by such a course of batter-brained idiocy as would disgrace an a-semblage of addled apes. A mule's ear would be its litti ng emblem. Never Had Its Equal. Clark County Kooord. Certainly no Legislature in Indiana, the United Suites or in any other portion of tire world where legislative tribunals Imi vexisted in the past, lias ever equaled this one in universal overturning of every State and municipal institution, that hart within it the gift of an ofßce—casting out all present incumbents and replacing them with ilte spoils vultures, belonging to the combination. . The Country All Bight, jtouth Howl Tribune. The country is all right, therefore, so long os it does not lose its head. When every man borrows clear up to tiie most extravagant estimate of his ability to repay, and enlarges Ids manufactures, reckless of whether lie can .sell the goods, and people plunge into speculative enterprises of every description, then an inflation of credit is going on which is likely to produce a reaction, Merits Ihe People's Indignation. Fowler Era. The course of the Legislature is such ns should call down upon it the indignation of jn abused and disgraced people. The Democratic party were in power, and have made their record, and if any officer of State goes without his pay. or any of our institutions auffer, or justice in any of its departments is retarded, the Democratic party should be held accountable. Governor Porter's Fitness ami Courage. Indians polis IlcpiibUcsii. Governor Porter lias again proven his fitness for responsibilities. Quietly cotirleeus to all, Ae bus bi n. iy •. iscc.irgcd his duties,

j without being bulldozed by Bourbons of warped by needless prejudice. With the 1 Lieutenant-governor, he has done much to the vicious vi perish ness of the late loose-jointed majority. Credit to whom credit is due. Praise Meetings Should Re Held. Martin County Tribuno. “Praise God from whom all blessings flow,” for Ho is magnanimous in small as well as great things, and His wisdom has let the time roll around when the people are freed from witnessing the daily sessions of the most partisan Legislature tlie State was ever cursed with. Let Governor Porter ani nqiinee a day forpraise meetings throughout : the State. Most Disgraceful and Villainous. Kokomo Tribune. History will record the late Legislature as the most disgraceful, the most villainous, and the most corrupt one that ever assembled in the State. The Democracy have sown the wind and they will reap the whirlwind. The ! good people of Indiana will next year set j down upon them in a manner that will deaden them beyond the hope of resurrection. Revolution and Rebellion. Knfghtstown Banner. For the sake of fastening upon Indianapolis a State police which her people didn’t want. Hie Democratic legislators killed the bills appropriating money to carry on all the departments of the Suite government. It is a species of revolution and rebellion which the party can hardly be proud of. The Presidency of Purdue. Lafnvette Journal. It would be gratifying to all the friends of Purdue if Mr. White would withdraw his resignation; but in the event that he does not, it ought not to be a difficult matter to secure the services of a gentleman in every way qualified to take, charge of the great and important interests of Purdue. The Republicans Feeling Comfortable. Indianapolis Saturday Herald. Republicans are feeling very comfortable. They say that the party is in better siiape now in this State than it has been for several years. It is again at peace with itself, and they think the action of the last. Legislature lias made the State reliably Republican for 1334. Worthy the Deepest Condemnation, Mishawaka Entarpnno. The outrageous example of our late Indiana Legislature in refusing to pass the general and specific appropriation bills because the Governor had vetoed the metropolitan police bill, a pet Democratic measure, is worthy the deepest condemnation. A Reward Offered for It* Peer. Boon vi Me Standard. If any Democratic friend can point to a Republican Legislature in this State that has perpetrated half as much foolishness and been productive of so little good as the late lamented congregation of Democratic statesmen, we will accept it as a favor. The Legislature Takes the Cake. Wabash Plaindealer. For pure and unadulterated cussedness, for recklessness and extravagance, an Indiana Democratic Legislature can take the cake over any equal number of men ever yet brought together to enact laws in this or any other country. Tiie More the Merrier. Columbus lippuhlican. Two more papers are soon to be established at Indianapolis. If there is anything the capital city needs it is a few more newspapers. They will clearly not be satisfied until each family has a newspaper of its own.

No One Mourns Its Death. Terre Haute Mail. Last Monday the Legislature died a natural death, and no one mourns over its death. The universal opinion, regardless of politics, is that it was the most worthless of its kind that ever met in this State. Publish the Pension List. Madison Star. Bonnfide pensioners are indeed entitled to all they can get, and more, too, but they should be among the first to insist that swindlers should step down and out. Publish the pension list, by all means. Speaker Hyn utu’s Career. Frankfort Banner. Sneaker Bynum, of the House, was the most partisan Speaker, and has demonstrated the fact that he has fewer qualifications for the place than any other man who has ever held that place. A Disgrace to the State. Petersburg Press. The last Legislature was a disgrace to the State, and has been severely condemned by the Republican press and a great many of the be9t Democratic papers, botli in and out of the State. Republican* Can Well Alford the Record. Orloaiiß Examiner, flic Republican party of Indiana can well afford to go before the people in the next campaign with the record made by the late Democratic Legislature. The Work of the Democratic Legislature. Rushville Graphic. Unless we are mistaken in our estimate of the good people of Indiana this seed sown in corruption and dishonor will bring forth in humiliation and defeat. Disgusted with Gov. Porter’* Firmness. New Cast Jo Mercury. The firmness of Governor Porter must be particularly exasperating to certain Democrats. A HORRIBLE CRIME. A Georgia Father Comes Home Drunk and Pour* Hot Coal* on Hi* Child. Atlatitu Special. A resident of Elbert-on here to-day, informs me of a most brutal murder of a small child by its father in the upper portion of Hartwell, in an adjoining county. He says that the brute’s name is Herring, who is in tiio habit of getting intoxicated almost daily. While under the influence of liquor he frequently whips liis wife and children most unmercifully. A few days since he got drunk at Hartwell and started home. When secn*b.v his wife in an intoxicated condition coinin', down the avenue to the house she slipped out of the building to avoid him, leaving a small infant in the room. Shortly afterward, hearing the child utter most piercing cries, she returned home ; and looked through a crack to .see what was going on inside. Near the fireplace she saw her baby lying on the hearth with her husband standing over it pouring a shovelful of coals and ashes on it. She raised an alarm immediately, and rushed in to rescue the child from death. The husband, seeing her come in, hurriedly left by the door and escaped. The infant died in a few moments after in her mother’s arms. The woods are being scoured for Herring, and if found he will never have an opportunity to hear the ! case discussed in open court, as the indignant people in that section will save the State that much expense. Too High a Price. New York World. Judge Tourgee says he would be willing to stand on his head all day if it would make Ben. Butler President. If there is anything this country longs to see it is Judge Tourgee standing on his head. But his price is too high. Mn. (\ A.

THE INDIANAPOLIS JOURNAL, TUESDAY, MARCH 13, 1883.

MRS. COUGAR’S STRUGGLE The Testimony Given by Captain Wallace ah Yesterday’s Session. Failure of the Reporters to Make Extended Mention of the Many Interesting Incidents of the Case. WALLACE’S TESTIMONY. Tiie Captain Takes the Stand mid Accounts for His Whereabouts on tiie 19th of November. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. Lafayette, March 12. —Captain Dewitt Wallace, who, it is understood, is the last witness for the plaintiff in the GougarMandler slander suit, went on the stand at the convening of court this afternoon. Captain Wallace’s testimony began Sv a recital of liis claims ns to his whereabouts on the night of Nov. 19, when the defense claims to have seen him and Mrs. Cougar go up to Wallace’s office at 8 o’clock and come down at 11. Captain Wallace swore that he was at home with his family during all the day of that Sunday; that he went down town at 7 in the evening; went to the telegraph office, anu thence to his office, until about 9:30; he was there alone; he then went home, meeting the two persons who swore they saw him, and was at his residence until the next morning at 8 o’clock, when he went to his law office. On his arrival he found an anonymous letter, telling him that the chief of police had conspired against him, and would have him and Mrs. Gougar in*the Police Court. This, he said, was why he went to Dr. Ingersoli and asked him to go to the mayor and see if sucli statement were true, and not because he knew he had been seen with Mrs. Goug.ir the night before. This letter was offered in evidence, but objected to. The matter was argued and taken under advisement until evening, and the court adjourned in the meantime.

THE TRIAL AS IT IS. A Look at It Through Spectacles Favorable to the Plaintiff. Letter in Chicago Inter Ocean. The reports for the daily papers are made by young men who do not write short-hand, and who have consequently little practical knowledge of what is really required at the hands of a verbatim reporter. They scud along at a breakneck speed, writing longhand as best they may, for seven or eight hours a day. They have no opportunity to rewrite their notes, and their copy often goes to the printer without revision. All experienced reporters know what a farce such an attempt to report at verbatim is, and their journalistic sympathy will be extended to these men who are compelled to palm off' their hit-or-rniss efforts and tumbling rhetoric for a record of what occurs in thulcourse of days, every one of which has been crowded with exciting incidents. Each one of these men know that he could better give the spirit of a day’s proceedings in a column of carefully written matter of sketch and analysis than in his four or five columns of running record devoid of color and bare of incident, but the public pressure demands verbatim reports, and they do the best they can. In doing this they become so jaded and callous as to not be sensitive to dramatic incident or humorous episode, orso fagged out as to be incapable of obeying the reportorial impulse to make the most of the picturesque and the grotesque. The other day when Airs. Gougar fainted, or went into hysterics, a Chicago reporter wouid have broken a leg rather than miss the opportunity to write up “A strong-minded woman so weak-minded as to faint.” And, kindly or otherwise, he would have given more space to the incident than to the droning of witnesses. But only one paper, the Journal, made anything of the episode.

Again, the spectacle of four or five lawyers bumping their heads together in eager conference to find some little grain of indiscretion. some little act of common imprudence, some expression that will hear the interpretation of looseness, and hounding a woman through ten hours of questioning to find some discrepancy or contradiction or inconsistency of statement, some incoherency in pointed phrase, would naturally suggest the inquiry of how five men, vulnerable as men tire, would come out of such a laying bare of their private lives for one month instead of for twenty years. And this suggestion would start men like Townsend to building up a graphic picture more taking than whole columns filled with testimony. Or the spectacle, seen often when Mrs. Gougur was on the stand, of Iter four lawyers rallying close about her with faces dark with suppressed excitement and eyes flashing ail'd hands moving in imperious gesture, almost touching in their sweep tiie hair of the woman resting for a moment at the white heat of the hunt—site panting and confused they bristling with the resources of masculinity in a fight—such a spectacle would suggest an effective sketch of a woman who had so often defied and scolded men, admitting in eves and face and attitude the possibility of occasions when men would do the work better titan women. But the reporters stumbling along behind the swollen tide of disjointed testimony, could have no eyes for scenes like this. And hence, because thev are made pack-horses to carry a load of inconsequent talk, they fail to give a sketch in true color of tiiis “celebrated case." The case differs from other so-called scandal cases in several importantand significant particulars. No one in Lafayette seriously iualccs the charge that there has ever been unhappiness, or cause for unhappiness, outside of present complications, in* cither family. On the other hand, there are in both cases the best evidences of domestic tranquility and such loyalty and helpfulness as is usual in married life. The circumstance that in the Wallace household the wife lias been something of an invalid, and in the Cougar household the husband at times a sufferer from ill-health has been made use of in certain quarters asan excuse for the alleged liason between Captain Wallace and Mrs. Gougar. But it so happens that this circumstance, as a matter of fact, has brought out in clearer light the sturdy fidelity of the wife in one ease, and (lie devotion of the husband in the other. In regard to the latter, the fact is conceded on every hand: in regard to the former, it is a subject of common remark. Speaking to one gentleman, a railroad man, of the attitude Mr. Gougar took toward his wife in this terrible trial, I drew out tiie unexpected reply, “He ought to. She lias stuck to him through thick and thin. Years ic-o, when, through hard work and the goading" of ambition, his eyes failed him, that woman, his wife, did for him tilings that few women would think of doing for a husband. She rend law books to him; she wrote at his dictation such papers ns his practice required the preparation of; she used her eyes while his rested, and when tie recovered a common remark was that no two people in the world, after such an intimacy und companionship, understood each other better than Joint D. and Helen M. Gougar." Telling this story to a liquor-dealer, who has no personal or political sympathy with Mrs. Gougar, lie said quickly: “Between you and me and the gatepost, I believe that. When Mandler and tile boys got up this racket about these people I told them that if John D. Gougar said his wife wasn't guilty, or that she wasn’t there, I would believe hiiu

against all the testimony that could be produced. When John said his wife was at home that night, that settled it with me.” These are fair specimens of the talk about town in regard to the domestic life of Airs. Gougar There has not been produced in the whole course of the trial any love letter or note or dispatch that could be construed to the disadvantage of either Captain Wallace or Airs. Gougar. There has been ..o evidence as to any open.act of undue familiarity except that offered as to Wallace having liis arm around Mrs. Gougar in the camp-meeting train, and this has been so completely met that it cannot be counted. There are among the parties now no heartburnings, no jealousies shown or confided even to the most intimate; no criminations no divisions. Mrs. Gougar’s faniiiy and relatives ail stand by her, and Captain Wallace’s relatives all stand by him. There never has been on either side any hint at alienation or divorce. There has not been even in the minds of the Handler party any thought thateither Airs. Gougar or Captain Wallace desired divorce. This point has not entered into conversation here at all, apparently, as every person questioned on the point received tfie inquiry with looks of astonishment and at once filed an emphatic negative. Airs. Gougar has entered on the fight on a theory that contemplates not even the reticence imposed by her lawyers. She seems wholly incapable of understanding the significance given bv the public to acts which she would not deny if she could. She cannot understand why a woman engaged in proper business should not travel alone and go to a hotel alone, and she could not at first be mads to believe that any chain of circumstances could he woven of such independent acts to tell against her. In fact, she does not believe it now. Another peculiar feature of the case is the continued close friendship of the two families most concerned. The closest study fails to discover, at the most trying incident or circumstance, or at the most searching question in court, the slightest sign of embarrassment or fear on the face of Mrs. Gougar, her mother, her sister, or her husband, oron the faces of Captain Wallace and those who hold the innermost secrets of his life. Hundreds have the means of knowing that there lias been absolutely no break in the friendship of Mr. Gougar ami Captain Wallace, and any one who visits the courtroom may see tiiat Airs. Gougar and Captain Wallace are openly on the same terms as when they engaged in the campaign last fall. This, of course, has little to do with the question of guilt or innocence. It is simply one of the features not usual in cases where such accusations are made, and with such positiveness ns to come before a court. All tiiese points puzzle those who believe Mrs. Gougar guilty, and even Alandier’s lawyers have made some attempt to analyze them as elements of the situation. How, then, in the face of this self-confidence, and this challenge for her enemies to do their worst, has so strong a case been built up against Airs, Gougar?

A FAMILY WRECKED. What Unrequited Love Has Done for a Pennsylvania Family. Erie (Pa. > Special. To-morrow the doors of the State Lunatic Asylum will open to admit a young lady whose intellect __hns been dethroned by the perfidy of a recreant bridegroom, a highly connected young man named D. Dullea, who basely fled on the morning of the wedding day. The parties live at Harbor Creek, a country village about eight miles from Erie, and the name of the demented girl is Anna Peterson, daughter of highly respected residents of tiiat place. Miss Peterson is nineteen years old, ami far tit Save the average girl. About a year ago Dullea, a young man of considerable property, paid her marked attentions, and in due time gained her consent towed him. Thcdav was set for tiie wedding and the little village was “all tore up” over the event. Friends and relatives all over the State were invited to be present at the ceremony. No one was more zealous in making preparations than tiie bridegroom. The morning came and Anna Peterson bedecked herself in gay bridal robes. Trains brought hosts of loving friends, who,, as the hour drew nigh, assembled in the parlors where the minister was in waiting to perform the ceremony. The bridesmaids were attired as elegantly as the young bride, and the parlors were profusely decorated with floral and other ornamental designs. The marriage was to be solemnized at noon, and at 11:50 the bridegroom.had not arrived. No alarm was experienced, as it was known that lie had a con pie of miles to drive,and some allowance was made for him out of consideration for tiie ordeal in store. A few minutes before noon a stranger rang the bell and handed in a letter addressed to the bride, and in the well-known handwriting of Dullea. The bride was upstairs waiting for her lover to lead her to tiie officiating clergyman, but lver anxious parents were afraid to give her the letter. Fifteen minutes had passed, and then Miss Peterson began to wonder what kept Dullea. Not without forebodings of evil did her father present her with the letter. She took it hastily from his hand, tore it open, hurriedly glanced at its contents, and then, with a heart-piercing shriek, dropped to the floor in a swoon. The fatal letter was picked up and was read to the wedding guests. It was a curt, heartless epistle, and in it Dullea said ho was going to travel abroad. Restoratives were applied, and the deserted bride was revived. When she came out of the faint she astonished her friends by quietly readjusting her wreath of orange blossoms, and taking the hand of an aged neighbor she addressed him by her false lover’s name, and announced herself ready to repeat the words that should make her his fond, loving wife. Then it Hashed upon the minds of all present that the shock had deprived her of reason. They led her away, like poor Ophelia, smiling and chatting in an artless, innocent way that was heartrending to witness. The house of rejoicing was changed to a house of sorrow. Tfie guests departed, and Mr. and Mrs. Peterson were left alone with their demented child. During the night violent paroxysms attacked her, and those were succeeded by periods of insensibility. To add to the infamy of the affair the unhappy panits discovered -that Dullea had been a greater villain than even his base desertion proclaimed him to be. A secret that had been kept, from her mother was disclosed by the mind-disensed daughter, and now it would not surprise tiie people of Harbor Greek if the minds of the parents sink under the weight of sorrow and shamo that has j fallen upon them. _

Fininu Oates Conkling Dying. New York Times, Sun-lay. Mrs. Emma Gates Conklin", tiie wellknown woman suffragist, is lying seriously i'll at her residence, No. 318 West Twelfth street, and her physicians have no hope of her recovery. Mrs. Conklin" has been an active temperance worker, and acted as president of the meetings of the American Temperance Union and National Temperance Union, held in Irving Hall and Cooper Institute a few years since. She was active in inducing women to vote at the election for school trustees in Long Island City, where they were first given that privilege.* She was also active in the attempt to secure seats for the female clerks in the dry goods houses in this city a year ago, and in the movement to have matrons appointed for the police stations in this city.

AN ELOPEMENT. now a Loving Conplit Spoiled the Plans of Fond Parents. Memphis, Tenn., Alarch 11.—Social circles have been considerably stirred up the past day or two on account of a runaway match with matrimonial intent, in which the oldest daughter of Attorney-general G. P. M. Turner, who is editor and proprietor of tlie Alemphis Weekly Scimetar, and a Mr. Aloore, formerly collector for that paper, were the participants. The event would have attracted but little attention beyond the excitement of the moment when it became known, but since nothing has been heard of the runaways since their leaving, the interest is becoming more intense among her former associates and painful to her parents. Mr. Aloore was recently from Virginia, and while a resident of Alemphis he established himself in good society and by his gentlemanly deportment won many warm friends, who regard him worthy of the young Igdy who has cast her lot with him. The parents of the young lady had hoped their daughter would adopt tiie stage, for which she had developed a talent, and when Mr. Moore asked them for the hand of their daughter this was the only objection urged. Mr. Moore and his affianced put their heads together and resorted to the runaway strategem to thwart the stage plans, she not wishing to adopt t hat profession and he determined that she should not if she did not wish to. The supposition is that the runaways are somewhere in Virginia, in the vicinity of the former home of the bridegroom, enjoying a happy honeymoon. The Unknown Speaker of the House. Washington Sunday Herald. In the House lobby, back of the Speaker’s desk, is an incomplete collection of portraits of Speakers of the past. All are labeled with the correct names but one. This is the second picture on the right hand side of the lobby as you go in from the west. No one apparently knows who this represents beyond the fact that he was once Speaker. The oldest citizen has vainly struggled to identify him. Unknown, the face of the man who once held the third office in the United States gazes caltniy down upon the procession passing him in a maddening rush for political fame. A Decision Against “Bucket Shops.*' Chicago, Alarch 12.—1n the United States District Court, this morning, a decision was rendered in the pending cases between the “bucket shops” and tiie Board of Trade to the effect that the Board of Trade, as a chartered institution, has full jurisdiction over its market reports and can dictate to whom these reports may be delivered. The “bucket shop” men hope to evade the effect of this decision, the pending injunctions against the telegraph companies preventing them from cutting off reports.
