A DISTINGUISHED VISITOR •m Hon. S, S. Cox Pays a Visit to Indiana. He Wauts To Be Speaker and Declines to Talk About Politics—How He Got the Name “Sunset.” Hon. a. S. Cox. of New York, has been in the city two or three days, but has kept himself in quiet seclusion in his rooms at the Grand Hotel until yesterday afternoon, when he ventured out with Hon. C. C. Matson, member of Congress from the Fifth Indiana district,and was promptly waylaid by a representative of the Journal. Mr. Cox’s visit to Indiana at tbis'time is for the ostensible reason of delivering an address before the students of Asbury University at Greencastle, but from the fact that be. has spent much of his time with Democratic Congressmen. State officers and others, who are possessed of more or less “pollitickel inffooence,” it may be inferred by some that his visit possessed some political significance as well; and when the further fact is considered that Mr. Cox is just now gazing fondly at the chair of the Speaker of the House of Representatives, and that the Indiana delegation will possess unusual influence in the caucus, the inference ripens Into more than a suspicion, and it will be tacitly understood that the brilliant New Yorker is looking after Cox’s interests with at least one of a pair of very penetrating eyes. When asked by the reporter to give his opinion of the politioal outlook, Mr. Cox spoke up very briskly and remarked that he was not engaged in talking politics, and did not propose to do so. “I have talked politics so much of late,” said he, “that I am sick and tired of it, and prefer discussing other subjects.” , “What do you think of the outlook in Ohio!” ventured the reporter. “The Democrats will be successful, I think. The Republicans are in a bad way over the loss of tho liquor vote, which has, no doubt, left them permanently. That and other oauses will operate in favor of the Democrats.” “How about reviving the ‘old ticket’ in 18841” “As [ said before, lam not talking politics. I am Just now a candidate for tho speakership of the House, and I have nothing to say about the chances of others. I shall enter the caucus backed by the solid New York delegation, to|say nothing of the strength I shall get elsewhere.” “What do you think of the tariff questions” “Just what I have thought for the past twen-ty-five years, and to these thoughts I have given utterance at almost every session of Congress since 1856. In my commencement speech at Brown University I spoke on that subject, and by reoeut perusal of it and a comparison with some of my later speeohes I find I am advocating just about the same views I did then.” Speaking of his address to the students at Asbury, Mr. Cox said that he had chosen for his subject “The Material Forces of Our Age,” and would devote his time to a consideration of the remarkable development of the physical forces made in the last few years. “In my youth,” said the distinguished gentleman, “I was inordinately fond of poetry, poetic prose, and that class of literature; iu fact, was something of a dreamer. It was from this trait that I derived my pet nickname, ‘Sunset/ which has clung to me me ever since. My favorite occupation was either reading such matter or writing essays upon poetic subjects. In late years, however, I took to reading scientific works and inve tigating the more recondite and abstruse matters, until I was weaned of my former love for poetry and became something of a devotee to scionoe. I spend a great deal of time in the consideration of those subjects. Edison is my particular frieud, and I take great pleasure in investigating the forces with him. I believe, sir,” continued Mr. Cox, waxing enthusiastic, “that you and I will live to see the day when the locomotive will be cast aside and regarded simply as a curiosity, and the force that makes that little clicking (pointing to a telegraph instrument) will be depended upon for the power for which locomotives and steam-engines are now used.” Last night Mr. Cox was called upon by all the leading Democrats ot the city at his hotel, and an informal reception was tendered him. Afterwards the entire party, tinder the guidauce of Congressman Matson, called upon Mr. Hendricks, aud spent an hour very pleasantly there iu social enjoyment, the gathering having no political significance whatever.

The Muldoon Centers, of Cincinnati, Defeated by the Home Club by a Score of 18 to 2. The Muldoon Centers, a semi-professional club from Cincinnati, met the Indianapolis club on the Seventh-street grounds yesterday, and met with a crushing defeat, the score beiug 18 to 2. The boys had but little trouble iu hitting Clarke, their pitcher, as the summary of 18 hits with a total of 30 shows. Ou the other hand the visitors made but a few scattering hits off of Donnelly The feature of tlie game was the terrific batting of Dorgan, McKeon and Keenan, who made totals of 5, 6 and 8 hits respectively. The fielding of the home club was also excellent, with the exception of Peoples, who made two errors, a fact that can be attributed to his want of practice as short-Btop recently. For the visitors Niehoff and Boebn appeared to the best advantage. Following is the score: Indianapolis, a.b. r. b.h. t.b. p.o. a. e.

The first nlghters were out in force last evening to greet the new people appearing the present week. The programme was of unusual length and interest and was strictly variety from begining to finish. With the exception of Harry Ricketts, a pantomiiuio oonnundrum, the people were all artists. Cort and Murphy were favorably received in their songs and parodies. Sweeney and Ryland held the stage for twenty minutes and kept the audience laughing over their funny Irish business; following came Alice Smith und Alice Daily iu songs aud dances, repeating their success of last week; Dooley and Sheehan a very clever colored team; Winstamly and Doyle, in a musical and danoing act; Georgia Kaine in a good serio-comic turn; Melrose and Melville, gymnasts and the great John Thuerer, who does the most daring and thrilling act possible to all mauiier of trioks while standing on his head in a swinging trapeze. The sketch “Judge McGinty’s Substitute” closes. NOTEB. The Park will remain closed throughout this month and July, aud during the regular season a great many legitimate attractions will be played there at popular prices.

Manager Dickson has received a dispatch from Henry Abbey, asking for dates for tho celebrated English actor, Henry Irving, for next season, but the time at the Grand is so nearly filled that he could not give the desired nights. It is probable some arrangement will be affected to bring Irving here however. Mr. Al. S. Li pro an arrived home from New York last evening, and will immediately commence rehearsing his dramatic company for the presentation of the drama “Fortune’s Toy,” at the Grand Opera-house, on the 4tli of July, afternoon and evening.

Mr. Hamilton, from the special committee concerning the proposed increase of the pay of firemen $5 per month, by taking the money from the amounts appropriated for the other departments, reported in favor of the measure and recommended tnat the city attorney be instructed to draw up the proper ordinance. Mr. Newman opposed it because it cut down the appropriation for other departments, but tne report was concurred in by a vote of 5 to 2, Messrs. Newman and Layman voting in the negative. Mr. Rorison gave notice of his intention to move a reconsideration at the next meeting. Mr. Tucker offered a resolution directing the city clerk to advertise for proposals for leasing Garfield Park for a term of ten years, the lessees to put up Improvements amounting to $25,000 in two years. The resolution was adopted. The board concurred in the action of the council in awarding contracts for street improvements. Mr. Rorison, from the committee on printing, made a report recomtueudlug a concurrence in the Council’s action, with the exception of awarding the stationery contract to Bowen fe Stewart. Mr. Hamilton offered a minority report, recommending that the contracts be readAertlsed and relet. Mr. Tucker moved that both reports helatd on the table; and the action of the Council be concurred in, which was agreed to. The Council report was then taken up by sections and all were concurred in. It gives the legal advertising to the Times, the stationery contract to the Journal Printing Company and the billposting to Harbison & Abrams. Mr. Hamilton, from the finance committee, presented a report showing that the estimates for the city’s expenses last year were $496,127, ami the actual expenses $512*.924.65, the amount expended in excess of estimates being $16,797.65. The following departments and officers kept within their estimates: Board of Health, city assessor, city engineer.

Conned in directing the Bee Line, Wabash and 1.. B. & W. railroads to widen their culverts over Pocue’s run, in the eastern part of the city. The Board then adjourned. THE COUNCIL. An Unimportant Meeting—Reports from the City Officers. A large amount of business of minor importance was transacted at the regular meeting of the Common Council last night. The session was devoted chiefly to ordering street improvements, and the street commissioner was “instructed” in something near two hundred items, covering almost the entire “chuck-hole” geography of the city. A communication was received from tfceC., H. Si D. Railroad Company tendering the members of the Council free transportation by special car to Cincinnati, aud Saturday afternoon at 3:30 o’clock was designated by the Council as a suitable time for starting from this city. The trip will be made for the pleasure there inay be in it, and the party, conditionally, may return on Monday morning. The city attorney reported that he would make an effort to get anew trial iu the case of Johnston Si Erwin against the city, in which a verdict for SIO,OOO damages was returned, and if anew hearing could not be obtaiued, he would appeal the case. In. addition, the city attorney said: “The theory upon which a large majority of the other cases will have to rest is radically different from this one, so that this may uot Oe, in any proper sense, considered a test of these Pogue’s run cases, let the final result be whatsoever it mav.” The cltv attorney further reported that the ordinance of 1875 for the protection of the bed of Pogue’s run is inoperative, because it la so worded as to convey no meaning. As it is important that a penal ordinance against obstructing the run should exist, one was submitted by the attorney for adoption. The report of the city treasurer showed balances to the credit of the different funds, to-wit: General fund. $290,339.67; Tomlinson estate, $55,501.19; additional city hall Tund, sll,621 92, aud sinking fund. $14,538.21.

Malott and others, asking that the Citizens’ Btreet-railway Company be required to pay the expenses of the howldering between ami lor two feet on each 6ide of tho ratlwav tracks on South Illinois street, recommended that the city civil engineer should be instructed to make out an estimate of costs, which the contractor shall be directed to collect from the street-railway company. The committee’s report was referred to tne city attorney ami the city ctvii engineer. The chief fire engineer asked the purchase of a single-tank (with a capacity of 100 gallons) chemical extinguisher, for headquarters, the cost of which will be about $1,400. Tho matter was referred to the tire board. An ordinance was introduced requiring the C., I. Bt. L. Si. C. company to erect and maintain safety gates at the crossing of their tracks on West Washington street. Another ordinance was introduced requiring the same company to station a flagman at the Dillon street crossing. The Panhandle and the C., II Si I. companies, by the provisions ot an ordmauce introduced, shall be required to station flagmen at the crossings at Reed and Cruse streets. The street commissioner was instructed to make improvements wuere needed on North Mississippi street, between Washington and Seventh street?, with racked river gravel. The city civil engineer was granted leave of absence to visit Cleveland and .Cincinnati to inspect the Medina stone paving of the streets in those cities. Tle New Catholic School. The new Catholic school on North Noblo street, the property of the Sisters of Providence, now in process of erection, will be an elegant building.

GRAN’D FIELD TRIAL--SELF-BINDERS The McCormick Scoops the Wood and Osborn, an<l Buries the PrematurelyBorn Buckeye “Low-Dowu.” At a trial of Self-binders near Mt. Carmel, 111., the McCormick, Osborn and Wood Elevator Binders and the Buckeye Platform Binder competing, the Buckeye made a complete failure, ohoking and throwing loose bundies so as to necessitate stopping every few feet. After “hogging” down the grain one round of the allotted land set off for this machine, Us representatives abandoned it, feeling sadder, but let us hope wiser, than in the morning. The Wood and Osborne showed heavy draft and loose binding, and aid not do the cleanest work possible. The McCormick ran light, cut clean, scattered and wasted no grain, and, as shown by the following testimony, was the choice of the farmers who witnessed the test. The McCormick agent suggested a committee from the reliable farmers present, but the representatives of other machines would not consent to this. The Buckeye Low-down failed to work. Mt. Carmel, 111, June 16,1883. After an examination of the Osborn, Wood, McCormick aud Buckeye Low-down Binders, in field trial here to-day, we think the McCormick did the best work in all particulars.
