Bloomington, Dec. 31.—Near Heltonsville, u small town southeast of here, a bold roboery was committed Sunday. About the middle of the afternoon four men came along the home of Mr. John Moore, a farmer, and finding that no one was at homo but the little girl, entered the house, caught the little girl and bound her to a bed post while they ransacked the house. As eoon as they had completed their work they left the house. The girl at once began the task of loosing herself, succeeding before the men were out of sight, and started for the neighbors to <-ive the alarm. This was soon done, and before ♦he robbers got out of the neighborhood they were arrested and taken to Bedford for trial, ytfter arrest they confessed and stated they were from Owen county. Dam Carried Away, fescial to the Indianapolis Journal. Wabash, Dec. 31.—The large dam across Treaty creek, about two miles south of this city, went out last night, owing to the unprecedented sain fall and the melting of the great accumulation of snow. The dam was sixteen feet high and most substantially built It was owned by flyman & Simon, whose mill was burned abont • year ago. The loss of the dam destroys the mill site. The estimated loss is about $4,000. 'Hie dam was so well built that the firm are inclined to suspect foul play.

This is the first successful escape from inside the walls for over five years.

A few minutes before 2 o’clock this morning five or six prisoners in the county jail made a desperate attempt to escape, but were prevented by the pluck of James Miller, the night turnkey. He was asked to let one of the prisoners out of his cell so that ho might go to tho water-closet, and went inside the cell room to let him out taking the precaution, however, to lock the outer door behind him. When he got back near the rear of the room five of the prisoners, all dressed and with their hats pulled down over their eyes, and armed with clubs, jumped on him. He resisted and drew his revolver, but he was disarmed, knocked down and thrown into a cell and the door locked. One of the men took Miller's pocketbook and jacket from him, and putting on the garment, walked to the front door and demanded to be let out. Richard Williams, a night watchman, had heard the scuffle, and refused to open the door, but ran for help. Sheriff Carter arrived in a very few moments, and in the meantime the prisoners had given up the attempt, released Miller and given him hack his things, saying: “It was no go. •We will have to give it up.” The men then went quietly back in their cells and the trouble was over. Owing to tire darkness Miller could not tell who they were. He was badly bruised about the head and face, and received two severe cuts in the forehead.

THE INDIANAPOLIS JOURNAL, THURSDAY, JANUARY 1, .1885.

AFFADtS OF THE RAILWAYS. Personal and Focal. The Vandalia pay-car is on the lino paying for November service. The Indiana & Illinois Southern, Billy Lyons’ road, is drifting under a financial cloud; and it is feared that early in 1835 the road will tumble ini# the hands of a receiver, Jan. 1, it is said, is to be a trying time for a large number of roads which have interest to meet A number are reported to be iu the market as borrowing money. Ben Blanchard, land agent for the A. T. & S. F. railway at Terre Haute, has within ten days sold $1 Go,ooo worth of railroad land- Sixty-five thousand dollars of this was sold to an Indianapolis party on Monday. Commencing with the new year a large number of roads in this cquntry, instead of issuing passes to employes for their own use, will give them the privilege of purchasing tickets at half the rate charged for tickets. Bee line trains commenced runn nj over the temporary bridge at Sidney at 5 p. >j. yesterday. In ten days the new iron bridge will be in position, and, it is said, will be one of the best bridges in Ohio. The bridge bqilding company are in fault that it was not completed sixty days ago. One of the beet reanlts of the better maintenance of freight rates ie shown in the increase in revenues during the last thirty days. The fact is that when through rates are strictly adhered to local rates are better maintained, and between the two the increase of earnings is very marked. The trunk-line representatives in the West are instructed to give all merchants to understand that paying rebates to secure west bound business from Eastern cities is a feature of the past. Even the Lackawanna & West Shore fast freight line has gone back ou this pernicious practice. The Louisville, New Albany & Chicago people are in hard luck. In the last few weeks a number of heavy judgments have been obtained against the road, and several cases are now pending in the courts, which are quite likely to increase the amount of judgments against the company. If the business men of Indianapolis had time and would take the trouble to compare the tariff rates which take effect to day with those which have been is use heretofore, they will readily learn that the scale adopted places Indianapolis on a par with other competing points in rate matters, as one local agent puts it. It is Indianapolis this time against the field. The governing committee of the Stock Exchange has listed the following securities: $1,226,500 of Pittsburg, Fort Wayne A: Chicago Railroad Company “guaranteed special,” making the total amount of this stock on the list $0,626,500. The stock, commonly also called betterment stock, is issued under article 16 of the lease of th# Pittsburg, Fort Wayne & Chicago Railway Company to the Pennsylvania Railroad Company for improvements upon and additions to the Pittsburg, Fort Wayne & Chicago Railway Company's property. Stock of the Cincinnati, Indianapolis, St. Louis & Chicago road has advanced 15 points in the last forty days, and friends of the property are confident that with the resumption of tho payment of dividends, July 1, 1885, the stock will reach its old position, par. The friends of the road certainly have reason for thinking well of tho property, as there is not a road in Indiana to-day which has a healthier business or more promising. The traffic of the last few days substantiate this statement, as on the Western division since Saturday night last at Op. m. 1,43210aded cars have been hauled over the line, and over tho Eastern division 1,645 loaded cars.

Appointments and Rumored Changes. T. A. Lewis, general manager of the Erie fast freight lines, yesterday appointed L. T. Fowler to represent these lines at Philadelphia, vice D. Jones resigned, and S. J. Shepherd to represent the Erie lines in New England, headquarters Boston, vice M. J. Green resigned. Joseph F. Tucker, formerly traffice manager of the Illinois Central road, has been offered the position of viee-president of the Erie road, made vacant by the resignation of Geo. R. Blanchard. President King seems determined to gather arouud him men of the best ability. General Huidekoper, .well-known in Indianapolis railroad circles, now President of the Western Car Company, and Postmaster at Philadelphia, is prominently mentioned for general manager of tho Philadelphia & Reading road. The General is just the man for that position. He has large executive ability, firm in his convictions of what is right, and to court favor with any party interested in the road will not swerve him from doing what he thinks i3 just to all parties. In other words, he is honest and economical in his methods of doing business, and would see that the road was operated to the best advantage, and that every dollar earned went into the company’s treasury. George T. Nicholson to-day takes lbe position of assistant general passenger and ticket agent of the Atchiuson, Topeka & Santa Fe system. C. R Barnhardt, who has been Louisville & Nashville freight agent at East St Louis, has been appointed to the newly-created position cf superintendent of transportation, lie has tho movement of train and telegraph in charge. A. P. Harrison, ticket agent of the I. <fc St L. at Greencastle. has resigned. J. G. Coats, freight agent at Terre Hante, has been transferred to Greencastle. leaving E. E. South ticket agent at Terre Haute in charge of both departments. _ The Air-Line Financial Troubles. The appointment of a receiver for the Louisville, Evansville & -St Lowis Air-line was not a surprise to parties posted as to the financial condition of the road. The road was put in operation in June, 1832, and for the most part of tho time since has had hut a precarious existence. The employes have generally been from two to five months in arrears of pay, and it is very probable that the road has been forced into the action, supposed to have been taken by reason of increasing indebtedness, which the earnings of the road could never pay according to the outlook. On Saturday last engines were attached in Crawford county for taxes, and their financial troubles have steadily increased from month to month for some time past. George P. Evans, who has been appointed receiver, has bean secretary and treasurer of the road, and is well fitted for such position. This is the forty-fourth railroad that has been placed in the hands of receivers since Jan. 1, 1884. Fifteen roads, aggre gating 680 miles, have been sold during the year, against eighteen roads, with a mileage of 1,350, in 1883. A telegram from Louisville, Ky., says: “The immediate cause o the appointment of a receiver was a heavy outstanding construction debt, frequent and disparaging rumors involving Air line property recently, excited creditors, and the latter demanded prompt relief of securities, and the railroad was forced either to make an assignment, or, as it more often occurs, pass into the hands of a receiver.”

The Wabasli Clique Baffled in Their Schemes. The prompt manner in which Judge Treat sat down upon the report of the special master, recommending that the Wabash receivers be permitted to purchase 950 cars and 11 locomotives, for $49,774 in cash and the balance in monthly payments, stretching over ten years, with interest, the aggregate principal being $657,607.20, is meeting with genoral approval Judge Treat say* “Here’s another eut-throat arrangement to be made, which I would not consent to as a railroad man, and certainly will not as a judge.” He then went on to say that it was not his intention to allow this receivership business to run on any longer than was absolutely necessary, and that he would not sanction any contract which cotemplated a period of ten years before its completion. He objeoted to complicating the matters in the case any more than was absolutely necessary. If the receivers needed the rollingstock, let them purchase outright; if they did not have the money to do this, then let them do without. The fact is that the syndicate owning the property, or professing to, are being blocked in many of their schemes by the court, which seems to look with an eye of suspicion upon all their moves. Wiping Out Agencies. T. A. Lewis, goueral manager of the Erie lines, yesterday ordered the Erie & Pacific His-

patch office at Louisville, Ky., closed to-day, the G. W. D., the E. & P. D. , and tho South Shore line offices at Mansfield. 0.. and at Milwaukee. Wis. ' Under the retrenchment policy, up to the present time, at twenty six points offices have been closed and agents relieved. He had just returned from his summer vacation, and describing the beauties of mountain scenery to a lady friend, he asked: “Have you ever seen the Cats-kill-mountainsF and she answered: “No! but I have seen the Bulls-cough-syrup” ONLY TRUE | /SyiRON gfTONIQ wm pwl( y the BLOOD* reraWVR late the LIVER and KIDNEYS.
