A CLEAN RECORD. %'hu Charge Against the E. & P. D. Not Sustained. a competitor of the Erie A Pacific Dispatch lied a complaint a few days since before the Founding committee of tiie trunk-line pool to the llffecttliat the Erie <k Pacific Dispatch to secure a heavy shipment of goods from New York to Indianapolis, paid Hit in cash to the shipper, laying that would pay his fare homo. Coiu- • issioner Fink ordered an investiiration. T. A. ewis. Western manager of Hie Erie lines, secured an affidavit from the shipper named that • did not ship the goods by the E. & P , D., either did they offer to pay his fare home, pronlad he would do so. The affidavit was sent oil to iiiiimissioner Fink, who examined it and yesyrday notified the Erie people that the charge gainst them made by said competitor had not e. n sustained. Were not the Journal inclined p preserve harmony between the Trunk lines, lowever, the name of the dispatch and that of lie shipper who received the $lO would be puus lied.

The bondholders of the Indianapolis, Decatur tSpringfield*road have begun to talk business a regards paying their back indebtedness, 'hey now propose to turn over tlte rental they ecetve from the 1., B.

Said ■ ; tidal says there have been some very unjust mauds made on them in the wav of damages, one of which have been allowed by the courts. These he characterrzes as fancy claims. lie adds that unless the creditors olioosn to settle at GO 1 !) per cent., undoubtedly the bondholders will allow the road to b i sola at foreclosure sale.

GENERAL NEWS. Gratifying Increase in the Number of Tickets Sold at this Point. The receipts from sales of tickets at the Union Depot in May, 1883, ran ahead of those of the <foonv*pondiiig mouth last year, in round uumfiers. $21,000, ami the sales of the up-town office forth© mouth were $15,000, a total gain over May, 1882, in both offices of $30,000. and as the noali'prs have probably sold as many tickets as mi id the outside offices which were open in the fpoatti of May, 1882, it m quite ©videut that the puM-eiiger traffic, of /May, 1893. over Indianapolis iines was considerably iu excess of that or I May, 1882. Treated Handsomely. Ben. Franklin Sipp, ear accountant of the C., 1., Bt. L & f\, returned from the East yesterday, where he w ut to attend the national car accountants' convention, lie reports having had srmnd time, and that the meeting was attend- ► by a largo representation of Southern, as ell as Northern roads, and tliev were very handsomely oaied for by the railroad men of Philadelphia. Mr. Sipp thinks that the information there obtained through tlie conference of car accountants will be of great value to tho service. Miscellaneous Notes. The Union Pacific people will erect anew five-story building for general offices at Omaha. The Rochester & Pittsburg has taken the cars built by the Pullman Company for the Niekleplate and rejected when Vanderbilt assumed control of tho road and put the Waguer cars on. The Erie & New England and some half dozen other one-horse express companies in the East are absorbed by the new deal between the three leading express companies of tills country. The people of Boise City, Idaho, are having a lively time over the fact that the. Union Pacific has located the Oregon Short Line to Rawlins, fifteen miles from Boise Cltv, thus leaving the latrer city, which is the capital of the Territory, out In the cold. Ttie directors of the Boston A Albany are devoting several days the present week to an inspection of theirroad. The directory make these inspection trios semi-annually, and keep themselves carefully posted as to too condition of tho properly and Its needs. The Now Albany rail rolling-mill shuts dowu to day. The members of the Amalgamated As soemtion decline to work beyond that time until the wages scale is settled. The closing of this iniit will throw our of employment a large number of men, most of whofn are ill able to stand the period of idleness likely to follow. Traolclaylng on both ends of the Northern Pacific is progressing rapidly. Week before last thirteen miles of road were built, and lasr week ten miles were laid on the eastern end, bringing It within twenty-one miles of Helena, Mont. It is expected to resell this town, which is already a thriving commercial point., about June 10. Arrangements are being mane for quite an elaborate celebration of this event. The annual report of the Central lowa Railway Company for 1882. in which Boston and New England capitalists are more deeply interested than they wish they were, is out. The road now comprises 504*9 milea. And the earnings have Increased from $783,446.01 in 1870 to $982,070.10 in 1880, $1,001,366.53 iu 18*1 and $1.200,100.41 in 1882. The operating and construction expenses unfortunatel v have overreached the gross earnings, although new extensions will now begin to pay haudsomoly it is thought. PERSONAL AND LOCAL.

H. R. Dering, secretary of the Indianapolis Rate Association, has issued ids rate sheet for June. Great care|lias been exercised In its revision. and the several mistakes of last mouth have beeu corrected. But once in the month or May were the fast mail trains over the Chicago, St. Louis & Pittaburg late in arriving at Indianapolis. Such a great improvement is this ever their record of a few mouths ago as to be well worthy of note. The shipments from Sandusky, 0., by express shows the largest tonnage of any point in Ohio, Cincinnati excepted. Grapes, wine and fish are the principal articles shipped since the 1., B. A Q. opened.’ Fish caught in tho afternoon are delivered in Indianapolis in season for breakfast the next morning. The express company managements are quite noted for cheek. An apt illustration was mentioned yesterday by a general manager, who received notice that the American Express Company messengers would begin running over his road June 1, the express people not even having beTore conferred with him about the matter. Master Mechanic of tiie Bee Line shops, Bnghtwood, yesterday turned out of the shops a first-class new passenger engine, numbered 134. Tiie engine is constructed with an extension boiler, straight stack, brick urch firebox, the Newell patent ash-pan, and all other modern improvements necessary to make a No. 1 locomotive.

THE INDIANAPOLIS JOURNAL, SATURDAY, JUNE 2, 1883.

RECORD OF THE COURTS. Proceedings in the Various Courts of Record Yesterday, Full Abstract of tho Opinions Rendered by the .Fudges of the Supremo Court Work iu the Local Courts. Supreme Court—May 31. Hon. William E. Niblack. Chief Justice. SUITS BY ADMINISTRATORS —COSTS. 10,141. Hiram Uillanherg vs. Joku 3. Bennett, administrator. Monroe C. C. Black, C’.—The act abolishing the Court of Common Pleas transferred to the Circuit Court exclusive jurisdiction hi all matters relating to the settlement and distribution of decedents’ estates, and in all actions in which executors or administrators arc the only defendants. Executors and administrators may sue in the Circuit Court on any claim accruing to them in their fiduciary capacity without regard to tiie amount of the demand, aud costs will follow judgment, even though the recovery be loss than SSO. (25 lud., 365; K. 8., 2,291.) Judgment affirmed. RAILROADS—SPECIAL TAX—PART PAYMENT. 10,269. Commissioners o f Tipton County vs. The Indianapolis, Peru A Chicago Railway Company. Miami C C. Hammond, J.—Section 18 of the act of May 12, 1869, and section 3 of tho act of Dec. 24. 1872, which provide that if a railroad, for wnose benefit a special tax has beeu levied, is not completed within three years after the levy tho donation shall be forfeited, were repealed by the act of Jan. 30, 1873. (68 Ind . 507.) Iu this ease the answer of the railroad company averred that the appropriation was by subscription to its stock, and not by donation; that $50,000 of the rax was collected and invested in the stock of the road and that the rest was uncoUectabie, except that due from tlie plaintiff. Sec. 18 of tiie act of 1860, which is the law of this case by a former decision of this court, (70 Ind., 385, ) makes the forfeiture of, or non-completion within three years, apply only to donations, and not to subscriptions to the stock. Nor does it apply to a case where a part of the special tax has been collected ana paid to tho company; go that it cannot be refunded to the taxpayers who paid it. To relieve those who have uot paid their special tax would make taxation unequal and would encourage the nonpayment of taxes, hv giving those who had not paid an advantage over those who bad. (39 Ind., 520.) The court erred In sustaining a demurrer to the answer. Judgment reversed. JUDGMENT JURISDICTION COLLATERAL ATTACK. 8,941. Cyrus H. McCormick vs. Daniel H. Webster. Porrer C. C. Elliott, J.—When the record of a court of general jurisdiction is silent, jurisdiction is presumed. (71 Ind., 579: 82 id., 82 ) The fact that judgment was rendered on the same day tiie pleading was tiled, does not establish want of jurisdiction. It may have been that there was one day's service of process and if so the judgment would not be void. (79 ind., 108; 76 id., 78; 74 id., 409.1 Or the principal may have approved or acknowledged the suretyship set up hi the pleading. Judgement affirmed. MISCONDUCT OF JURY —POSSESSION OP REPORT. 10,039. Prince Jones vs. the State. Vanderburg U, O. Howk, J.—This cae was once before in this court and is reported In 71 Ind.. 66. A reversal is again claimed for tiie reason that during the deliberations of the jury tiie volume of reports containing the former decision of the case, in some manner got into tiie jury-room and remained there for an hour or more. It was not shown that any one of the jurors read tiie report of tiie case, but tills it was impossible for the appellant to do. ;is a Juror cannot be heard to impeach his verdict, and no one else is allowed to be in the room while the jury is deliberating. A juror may bo heard in support of his verdict, however, and the Btate did not show that the book was not read. Tiie ease as reported contains much of the Evidence on the former trial, some of which was held competent and some incompetent. It was manifestly such misconduct for the jury to read the decision of the former trial as entitled the am* llanr to anew trial. (27 Ind., 1; 35 id., 492; 39 id., 19; 50 id., 346; 78 id., 474 ) Judgment reversed. SUPREME COURT—JUNE 1. 10,010. Margaret Switzer vs. Daniel Hawk. Montgomery CJ. C. Hammond, J.—On petition for rehearing it is assumed that Daniel, Absalom and Marian Hawk are children of Philip Ilawk, deceased. If tills is a fact, tiio pleadings fail to show it. On the return of the case tiie parties may reconstruct tlieir pleadings so hr to show the fact thus assumed, aud then a question may he presented which cannot be decided in the present condition of the pleadluga. Petition for rehearing overruled. DECEDENTS’ ESTATES —BYTPENCE. 9,638. Nianetia Haroouri vs. Daniel W. Harcourr, Marion C. Bicknell, C.—This was a claim filed by appellee against the estate of John Harcourt on a note executed by said John to her. and payable at his death out of ids estate. The court permuted the administrator und another witness to testify as to (declarations of tiie decedent in reference to the note, made after its exec ution and m die absence >f tue plaintiff. Such evldeuce was uot competent. Judgment reversed. CITIES —IMPROPER GRADING OF STREETS. 9,181. City of North Vernon vs. Mary Voegier. Jennings C. C. Beer, l*. -The appellee’s complaint charges that appellant’so graded a certain street ns to collect in an artificial channel the surface water from the territory adjacent to said street, which did not before flow upon appellee’s property, and to pour the same upon her lots to her damage. For this wrong the appellant was liable. (75 Ind., 241.) Aud in such a case It is no justification of tho wrong to show that it was done oy grading a street iu pursuance of an ordinance parsed for such purpose. Judgment affirmed. HI MS OF EXCEPTIONS—PRACTICE. 10.550. KebecoaJoues vs. Fernando Jones. Modi mom (VC. Morris, u.—This case was tried at tho Juno term, 1882, and tiie record does not show that time was then given to file a bill of exceptions, which, however, was filed iu vacation. The bill could be filed in vacation only upon the authority given by the court for the purpose wlieu In session, and the authority thus given must appear by the record, not by the lull of exceptions The judge cannot make up the record by a bill of exceptions tiled in vpcatioii. (65 Ind., 326; 72 id., 113: 79 id., 504.) The trial, filming and judgment fixing the rights of tiie parties, washed at Hie June term. There was no motion for anew trial made at that term, but at tiie October term appellant made a motion for anew trial, winch whs overruled. Under section 561. K. S., 1881, tho motion fora new trial must In- made at the term at which the de-n-don or finding is made. The motion whs. therelore, made too late, and presents uo question in this court. Judgment affirmed. FRAUD—RIGHT oK TRIAL BY JURY. 10,137 Nelsou Clouser vs. John M. Ruekman. Wells C. C. Franklin. C Action ly appellant to set aside ati order made by the Weils Circuit Court. Tiie order directed the appellee, as administrator of t he estate of James M. Kuckmau, to surrender to himself, individually, a largo amount of personal property belonging to said estate, in discharge of two mortgagee which he claimed to hold on. said property, hut which appellant alleged were without consideration ami fraudulent. Appellant demanded a trial by Jury, which the court refused. The questions of fraud in ihe execution of mortgages and in procuring the order, wore questions of fact eminently proper to be submitted for decision to a jury. Tout the case is connected with the settlement of a decedent's estate does not change tiie rule,. (11 lud., 89; 37 id , 284; 6L id , 392; 74 id., 339.) Judgment reversed. Tiie following cases were also decided: Elizabeth Fitzpatrick vs. William Pupa. Alien C. O. Affirmed. Elliotr, J. Harrison I>illumu vs. James Hillman. Monroe C. C. Affirmed. Black, C.

Drops of Water. Mr. Joseph G. Bicknell, No. 642 Main street, Catnbridgeporr, Mass , writes, April 27, 1883: “I have been terribly afflicted for a number of years with gravel and kidney disease. My urine coutaiued brick-dust deposits, and at times I could not pass my water except in drops and with great pain, and have had to get up as many as fifteen times during the night. I tried several physicians; they did me no good, but a friend of mine who had used llnut’s Remedy told me to get a bottle and try it. He had been cured of a severe case similar to mine, and that others had used Huut’s Remedy m Cambridge ami pronounced it a medicine of real merit. After being repeatedly urged I purchased a bottle, and before I had used all of It I passed a atone as large as a pea, followed by smaller.oues. I have used in all teu bottles, and it has completely cured me. My kidneys are in excellent condition, aud for one of my ago, sixty-eight (68) years, I can truly say I feel like a young man with strength and vitality. My family use the Remedy, and would uot be without it, and never fail to recommend it to our friends and neighbors in Cambridge and Boston. You are at liberty to use my name in praise of the best kidney and liver medicine, Hunt's Remedy.” “Did Wonders for Me " T!e above words are from Mr. Lewis Keen, No. 9 Highland avenue, Malden, Mass., April 28, 1883. Ho says: “I have been troubled for years with kidney and liver complaint, followed by gravel, with severe pains in my back ami groins. I had great trouble in passing water, it being scanty, and accompanied by terrible burning, the vessel being coated with brick-dust deposit. I was recommended to use Hunt's Remedy by a friend who had been completely cured of a similar trouble. I purchased a bottle at the druggist's, and commenced to improve at once. I have used but two bottles, and it has done wonders for me—no more kidney trouble, no more pain. It has given me new life, and I would not be without Huut’s Remedy at any price. It is all that It Is recommended to be, and I cheerfully give this testimony for the benefit or the many sufferers from kidney disease and gravel.”

THOSE WOMENIoOT How Hard-Headed Men Estitimate Some Things Which They Don’t Understand. Anybody who has led a domestic life knows how common such things as tho backache und pains iu the chest arc among the women who do the work. Often—and perhaps generally—the distresses are borne without much complaint. Tiie women get about, and the machinery of the house goes ou. Beyond this, those coarse-grained animals whom New England women call “the men folks,” seldom look, So long us their wives or daughters are not actually in bed, under the doctor’s care, the average thick-skinned husband and father gives the subject uo attention. At the sumo time the poor household drudges—who deserve a better fatecreep around, broom or utoiifdls in hand, up stairs, down stairs and out-of-doors, doing that woman’s work whloli “is uever done.” Losses of loved wives and fair girls—losses whose suddenness and unexpectedness astonish those wooden-puted husbands und fathers—fail, seemingly out of a clear sky-, and form tho logical sequel to the story of neglect. Now, you men who stand at the heads of ten thousand such homes, allow us to drop a word iu your receptive ears. If these women of yours are worth having, they are worth saving. Tue backache—that pain iu the chest! What are they but indications of some organic trouble of the kidneys, the heart, or the luuesf End it at once by the application of BENSON’S CAPCINE POROUS PLASTER. It will soothe that nervous distress, drive a way that pain, banish that dull, weary backache, give now strength to the body aud fresh hope to the heart. No other piasters will do this. The Benson's Plaster, however, is not made to sell—but to heal. It Is a remeuy which never yet broke its promise—aud never will. Your druggist Ims It. Hut before paving your 25 cents and putting the plaster iu your pocket, look for tho word CAPUINK cut In the middle. Seaburv A Johusou. Pharmaceutical Chemists, New York.
