The meeting at the Adjutant-general’s office on Saturday night to make arraugemeuts for the annual military encampment was so largo and enthusiastic us to leave no doubt of the final success of the enterprise. Colonel J. A. Glosser, jn a telling speech, said that while Cincinnati, u dull, dreary town of a few years ago, had preempted the music of the country, and other cities were holding annual expositions with the “Veiled Prophets” and MardiGras attachments, he saw no reason why Indianapolis should not at least take out a patent on annua) military encampments. lie therefore moved that an organization to that an end at once be effected. Colonel Eli Lilly was culled to the chair, and General Carnahan was appointed secretary. Colonel Glosser moved a committee of rhree to aclect an executive commute of seven to make arrangements for the encampment, said commerce to appoint sub-committees, a secretary and a treasurer. The chair appointed Colonel J. A. Glosser, Colonel Tom L. Johnson and J. A. Wildman. The committee retired, and speeches were made by Mayor Grubbs, Colonel Kilter, Colonel Ruckle. Mr. J. F. Wauick, Captaiu Richardson, arid others. Thu committee reported the following executive committee: Eli Lilly, chairman; George F. McGinnis, Irvin Robbins, H. C. Adams, 8. K, Fletcher, Horace McKay, E. F. Ritter. The report of the committee was received and concurred in. The encampment will open on July 2d and continue through the week, with a very extensive military programme and prize drills. A large rund will be raised by subscription at once to provide the prize money. The executive committee will meet at the Adjutant-general's office at 4 o’clock I*. m. to-day to open the cainpuicn by appointing sub-com-mittees, a secretary and treasurer. General Carnahan, who so ably conducted the last encampment, will again be commandant of the camp. It is believed that the New York Seventh regiment will come here this year, and if so it is expected that regiments from Illinois, Ohio and Indiana will compete with them for the proposed grand battalion drill prize. King Elder are receiving their spring stock of furniture, and It will pay those interested to call and sec the now and elegant designs.

THE NEW POLICE FORCE To Take Charge Next Saturday—Further Appointments Made, It has been definitely decided that the metropolitan police force will enter upon the discharge of their duties next Saturday, and this week will be devoted to the arrangement of all preliminaries by the commissioners. At the ! meeting last Saturday the additional patrolmen appointed were Worthington Clary and Bamuel Barker, members of the present force. The Democrats named are: Daniel F. Haley, Frank M. Schwab, Jacob D. Kurtz, Hans J. JacobeoD. William Schegerr, Michael O’Donnell, Miolinei Collopy, Millard J. LaPorte, Jacob Miller, Thomas McKee (colored), William 11. Hoefgen and Henry F. Winters. The colored Democrats who were applicants arc complaiuing over the appointment of McKee, who came from Evansville six months ago, and has never voted in this city. B. Clifford and J. M. Kiley, who were among the first Democrats appointed, failed to pass the surgeon’s examination on account of being near-sighted. Kiley had relinquished employment with wages at $2.50 a day for the position of driver of the patrol wagon, at $1.75, which would require him to bo on duty both day and night. Tbo commissioners will detail Winters os the driver. The anuouncemeDt that Webb Robertson had failed to pass the medical examination, although the Information caine directly from one of the commissioners, was rather premature, as the surgeon’s certificate of bis examination was not relumed until Saturday evening, and it was found to be favorable, Dr. Hodges making the statement that he had no physical disabilities which would disqualify him for this position. An effort was made by the Southside Democrats to prevent Robertson’s appointment, and after it had been announced it is said that an attempt was made to influence the examining surgeon to return an unfavorable certificate, but this he declined to do. The matter now rests wholly with the commissioners, and his appointment can be declared void only by a reconsideration or a peremptory removal. The Democratic local politicians, it is evident, are endeavoring to get in their work by “wire-working” methods, but to all appearances they have failed thus Jar. Among the many clamorous applicants there are also a few who have resorted to questionable means of obtaining appointment. It is claimed that Superintendent Robbins was approached by two members of the present force, who offered to vote the Democratic ticket if retained under the new administration. He refused to give any consideration to the proposition, and incidentally mentioned the matter to the commissioners while they were examining applications. Mr. Malott refused to concur in any further appointments until the names of the men were given, and the other commissioners coinciding with him, the superintendent gave their names. A Distinguished Thief. Roland Dukes, who stole the horse and buggy of W. E. Mick last Friday evening aud was captured a few hours afterward at Bridgeport, was sent to jail by the mayor last Saturday to await the action of the grand jury. He does not deny taking the rig, but claims that he did it while intoxicated. He is a man of very respectable appearance, and when searched at the police station papers were found upon his person which Indicate that he holds or has held some position of trust. He claims to be the civil engiueer of the Louisville <fc Nashville railroad, and states that he arrived in the city from St. Louis on Thursday night on a business trip. He is unable to give any reason for his conduct or for stealing the horse and buggy other than that it was a drunken impulse. A number of railroad passes were found in his possession, which seem to verify his statement that he has had Rome connection with railroads in an important capftcUy. Judge Gresham’s Movements. Judge Gresham will leave for Washington this evening, and his formal resignation as judge of the Federal Court will be sent in to-morrow. It was the intention of numerous friends to have tendered him a complimentary serenade Saturday night, but it was abandoned on account of Mrs. Gresham’s indisposition. About all of the prominent attorneys in the State have been named as bis probable successor, and the latest additions to the list are P. S. Kennedy, of Crawfordsville; Judge Kibby. of Wayne couuty, has a very stroug following, and C. C. Hines and William Wallaoe, of this city. Judge Wood, of the Supreme Court, aud Judge Mellett, of New Castle, are also prominently spoken or. District Attorney Holstein is mentioned with favor ou all sides, and his appointment would give general satisfaction. The New Base-Ball Club. The organization of the Indianapolis Baseball Club was completed Saturday evening. Grounds have been selected at tbe corner of Tennessee and Seventh streets, 440 by 364 feet in size, and the work of incloelng them will begin to-day. Improvements will be made at an estimated cost of $2,000. The players have been selected, but their names have not yet been made known. Tho uniforms will be gray, with red trimmings and stocklnge. The opening game will be played with the Chicago olub on the 18th inst., following on the 19th and 20th with the Detroit club. The following officers were elected Saturday: President;, Joseph M. Schwabacber; vice-president, Pe.er Bond; secretary and manager, Daniel dreary: treasurer, Robert C. Losev; directors, Howard Barnes, J. M. Schwabacher aud R C. Losey. What “Experts’* Cost the County. The correspondent of the Cincinnati News says: “The county refused a long while ago to submit its claim against Jackson Landers, ex-county treasurer, 10 arbitration, preferring suit instead. It was decided that the couuty owed Landers money instead of the reverse, and the expenses of his suit are something appalling in a small way. To-day an item for $373 for witness fees was presented, and A. C. Harris holds a claim for $2,000 legal services, which is yet to be filed, while Woollen, another lawyer, is already in with $1,500. The suit is a fut take.” The Best I Ever Uused. That is what was said to-day of the Enamel Paint made at Cleveland, by a party who has had considerable experience in the use of house paints. He clinched the assertion by using it again this season on several/llouses Don’t fool your money away on cheap paints. We guarantee every gallon we sell. Ask your merchant for the Cleveland Enamel Paint, for which we are the sole agents in this vicinity. Send for color cards. Hildkbrand & FuoaTK, 35 S. Meridian 81.
