THE METHODS OF SHEPHERD Renting the State’s Arms as a Matter of Business Without Authority. llow the State Is Made to Pay Doable Price in the Rental of the Armory—Getting Fees from Claimants. The more interviews there are with those acquainted with Quartermaster-general Shepherd’s methods of doing business, the more interesting become the criticisms thereon. ‘‘Shepherd’s card,” said a gentleman, yesterday, “is likely to mislead the public concerning his charges for cleaning and repairs. Extra parts of a gun are furnished by the government, just as the guns are, on a requisition from the Governor. There are no repairs for Shepherd to look after, except to take out a broken part and put in anew one. Again, there were 4,000 stands of old rouzzleloading guns in possession of the State, when Shepherd came into that office. No possible use could be made of them. General CarnahAn, when in office, tried to exchange them for tents, but failed. The guns thereafter were regarded A; so much valueless property, as the regular militia was being supplied with improved arms. When Shepherd came into office he had these muzzle-loading guns cleaned, and charged the State twenty-five cent each therefor. He sent them out to Grand Army posts, reunions and independent militia companies, but asked from them payment in advance of a cleaning charge at the rate he charged the State. Did you ever see the circular he sent out calling attention to the fact that he had arms to loan? Here is one of them: Quartermastf.r General's Office, ? State of Indiana. 5 Indianapolis, , ISB Mr. 1 Dear Sir and Comrade —I will furnish muzzleloading guns for use of your post, not to exceed twenty-four in number, at twenly-five cents each, with an additional cost of $2 for packing and drayaee. These guns may be retained by you during my term or continuance in this office, except in case of an emergoncy. A bond of $lO for each gun ordered must be filed with the auditor of your county; forward me his certificate, with a postal order for amount, and the arms will be forwarded at once. If guns are required for sham battles, the breech-loaders will be furnished at same price (twenty-five cents each), packing and drayage $3 per hundred; cartridges $lB per thousand. The bond required for breech-loaders to be filled out at S2O for each gun ordered. They are to be returned immediately after use. No muzzle-loading guns bolongingto the State will be allowed for use in sham battles, on account of danger of shooting ramrods. Blank bonds will be furnished upon application to this office. No order considered until bond has been filed and all charges paid. Remit either draft or postal order. Respectfully yours, J. Mcß. Shepherd, Quartermaster-general Indiana. “You see,” continued the informant, “ho gives them the right to retain the guns during his term in office, and propose* to supply the improved patterns, not the muzzle-loaders. There is not only a State law, but a United States statute, prohibiting the loan of guns to any companies, except militia, regularly mustered into the State service. There is another matter of which I am conversant. Shepherd’s son leased from A. A. Heifer an old stable in the rear of the State Library building for sls per month. This i6 used for a State armory, and Shepherd charges the State $25 per month.” “Do you remember,” said auother gentleman, “that the Legislature some years ago appropriated $16,000 to pay the Indiana Legion for its services at different times during the war! The mode of payment is that the Adjutant-general shall receive the applications for payment from the members of the Legion. If they agree with the muster-roll and other evidence of service, he certifies the correctness of the amount. The person to whorm it is to be paid is required to receipt for it personally at the Adjutant-general’s office. He ought then to take his certificate to the Governor for approval. After this is done the Auditor is authorized to issue his warrant on the treasury for the sum, payable only to the person who did the service. As the most of these individual accounts vary from $1.50 to $6 it would not pay the claimants to come here from distant parts of the State to get the small sums duo. Many of the legion put their cases in the bands of attorneys, who were refused an inspection of the rolls. The Adjutant-general received many letters of inquiry regarding the payment of the claims. He replied that the business could be transacted though Quartermaster-general Shepherd if the claimant would give him a power of attorney to sign the roll. Shepherd, for this service, would charge sl. Private Miller,of the Light Artillery’,desires the statement made that the ammunition furnished the Castleton encampment committee, men tioned in the article about Shepherd published Thursday morning, was not the property of the battery, but was purchased by him of private parties. Comrade Smith’s Reply to Mr. Shepherd. To the Editor of the Indianapolis Journal: Contrary to my usual custom, but in justioeto myself, I beg leave for space to reply briefly to the undignified and unseemly attack made upon me by J. Mcß. Shepherd in his statement published by you this morning. A newspaper controversy is neither pleasant nor profitable under the most favorable circumstances. How much less, then, when entered into with such* a creature as the Democratic Quar-termaster-general of the State proves himself to be? I believe it was day before yesterday that a reporter on your excellent paper called at my office, and in the course of conversation asked me some questions concerning the late reunion and encampment at Castleton. And what I said to him was true. I never claimed to have bought ammunition or renred guns of the Quartermas-ter-general, or anyone else. The only connection I had with that matter was my numerous visits, in company with other members of the committee, to the place whore it is alleged the Quarter-master-general keeps his office. It is true that we were nearly two weeks in finding someone in the office who could give us official information concerning guns and ammunition. And in all our visits we failed to meet the great Quar-termaster-general in propia persona, though it was several days after the Lafayette encampment had closed. Ido think that 25 cents each is an exorbitant and unwarranted price for the use of the State’s arms by her old soldiers in a sham or any kind of Dattle; and that $lB a thousand is an outrageous price for such cartridges as were sold to us by the Quartermastergeneral. I assisted in unpacking and issuing the guns at Castleton before the sham battle, and many of the gems looked as though they never had been cleaned, and were in bad condition. I never said that these guns of the State bad been shipped from one encampment to another without being unpacked, nor did I make any statement that could be so construed. But I think my experience in the late unpleasantness enables me to tell when a gun has been cleaned, and I personally know that not one gun of that entire lot had ever received 25 cents’ worth of cleaning. Now, I know nothing whatever of whore the other cartridges used on that occasion came from, although I have heard many statements from very different sources about all of the cartridges being obtained at exorbitant prices. I will add that, from the vituperation, and slang, and undignified spirit exhibited in the groat Democratic Quartermaster-general’s statement as published by you in this morning’s issue, this office is in great need of an investigation, and that a thorough overhauling might reveal that there is something rotten in the state of Denmark. Aqd I also modestly suggest to Governor Gray tb*t he plight not only hi doing the State some servief. but may improve bis political prospects as well, by calUng bit Quart?rmafltorgeneral wide nud giving bl omt

A Professional Thief Captured Yesterday After a Long and Lively Pursuit. Within the last few days a number of board-ing-houses have boen robbed of clothing and valuables, the thefts in each case occurring simultaneously with the disappearance of a genteellooking fellow, who had a few hours before obtained entrance to the houses as a boarder. The police have been well satisfied that the work was being done by a Chicago thief who operated ;in this city quite extensively in the same way about a year ago. An accurate description of him was furnished a number of the leading boardinghouse keepers, with instructions to report at onco to police headquarters if he applied to any of them for entertainment Among others Eagle, the grocer, at the corner of Fort Wayne avenue and Delaware street, was requested to keep a lookout for his appearance in that part of the city. Yesterday at noon the boarding-house at No. 167 North Tennessee street, kept bja James Offut, was robbed of several articles of jewelry and a small amount of cash. The thief fitted the description of the one for whom the police were searching, An hour or two later he walked into Eagle’s grocery store and inquired if a certain house near there was not a board-ing-place. Osie Eagle, who at once recognized him as the man described by the police, directed him to a house in the neighborhood, and seut for Captain Campbell, who responded to the summons in company with Patrolman Haley. The suspected thief had, in the meantime, engaged board at the house of Colonel Gray, opposite the Blind Asylum. While in a room to which he had been assigned. he saw the officers approaching, in citizen’s clothing, and immediately jumped through a window, carrying the sash with him, and dashed up Fort Wayne avenue, turning north on Delaware street, followed closely by the officers, who were firing at him. The fugitive, to enable him to make faster speed, threw off his coat and vest, and dropped bis revolver. The chase continued for nearly a mile, but after running two or three squares the officers began to fall behind, until finally they became so completely exhausted that they could run no further. A butcher continued tho pursuit in his buggy, and gained on the fleeing thief, until, near the residence of Gen. Morris, he came witnin a short distance of him. The fugitive jumped into a buggy in which Gus Mason was sitting, waiting for his mother, who was making a call, and seized the lines, saying that he wanted to drive around the corner to catch a man. Mr. Mason was completely overcome by the boldness and suddenness of the thing, but protested, and ordered the fellow out of his buggy. In trying to turn the vehicle he had locked the wheels, and, finding that he was losing time, while his pursuers were now close upon him, he jumped out and started to run again, but was so near exhausted that, after going a short distance, he was compelled to stop and surrender himself. He was turned over to the police when they came up, and at the station-house he cave the name of George W. Williams. The suit of clothes he wore was identified as one that was stolen a few days ago on North Pennsylvania street. Early yesterday afternoon, a man of Williams’s description, found the six-year old son of William H. Morrison playing in University Park, opposite his house, and pretending to take a fancy to him, induced the boy, by promising him ice-cream, to go after his sister’s gold watch, whieh, the confidence man said, he simply wanted to see. Mrs. Morrison found the boy looking for the watch, and asked what he wanted to do with it. Ho told her, and, of course, she did not let him have it. The fellow waited for the boy at the corner of Pennsylvania and New York streets for some time. Several days ago a man about thirty-five years old, giving his name as Michael Maher, but who, the police are disposed to think, was Williams, applied at St. John's Academy on Georgia’stroet for a situation. The man who had done chores abont tho place had left and the Sisters of Providence, in whose charge the institution is, needed someone, but would not employ Maher without recommendation. He said he was a stranger, but would be able to give the required indorsement in a few days. He was then temporarily employed, and ran errands and did various work about the place. On Sunday, when nearly all the household were at mass at St. John’s, the trunk of Florence Morris, one of the students, was opened and $5 taken, while from the trunk of tho Sister Superior $15.53, belonging to the St. Cecelia Sodality, was stolen. From the art department brushes, tube colors and other material, amounting to about SBO, were found by the Sisters to be missing. Maher did not lodge in tije bouse, but suspicion pointed to him a3 the thief. The police were told of the theft, but kept tho information from the reporters, fearing that Maher would find out he had stolen something. On Monday that brazen rascal, who had made a few purchases at Bretz’s grocery store near by for the institution, went to that place and, to divert suspicion, as he did rot have the pass-book, bought a wagon-load of supplies for the academy, which he ordered to be sent, and carried away an arm load of supplies, for which he said the Sisters had immediate need. Neither Maher nor the arm-load has since been seen. “The academy has boen established in this building over fifteen years,” said the Sister Superior to the reporter, “and this is the first time any one has stolen from us.” Death of an Old Citizen. George W. Stillwoil, a resident of this city since 1360, died last night, at the age of sixty-five years. He had suffered a long time from asthma, and although at times the paroxysms were severe, his death was not looked for, as for the past few days he had had relief. It was his habit every summer to go to Duluth and remain until November, but this year he conceived the idea that his rooms at the Brown House were more conducive to his health. Yet his son-in-law, Mr. Ballard, had persuaded him to leave with him in a day or two for his regular summer tour. His sufferings for the past several years were so intense that his mind at times failed him and led him to excesses which in any other condition he would severely denounce. It was a hobby of his that his rooms at the Emmet House were not suited to one of his disease, hence he died awav from home, but with the attendance of his faniilv, except his daughter, Mrs. Ballard, who is at the North on account of her health. Mr. Stillwell got his start in life as a merchant in Montgomery couuty, but on coming to this city he went into the collecting business as a lawyer. In this he was eminently successful, being intrusted with the business of many large New York and Cincinnati houses. He leaves a large estate. Estimates of the City’s Expenses. The Council finance committee met last night to estimate the city’s expenses for the year 188& Taking the first six months and the outlook for the remaining six the estimate for the year was placed at $524,000. The estimated receipts for the year were figured at $546,000. Last year’s estimate was $512,000, while the actur.l expenses proved to be $516,4G9. The committee is of the opinion that the city can live this year within the estimate of $524,000. Stable Destroyed by an Incendiary Fire. A fire of incendiary origin destroyed the stable of James Wells, No. 62 West South street, last night, at 9 o’clock. The loss is S3OO, covered by insurance in the agency of Sayles. Sergeant Fredericks, Os the Greely arctic expedition, now a resident of this city, is the agent of Greoly’s magnificent book, “Three Years of Arctic Service.’’ It is the latest, fullest and best book on arctic explorations, and is splendidly illustrated. The book is sold only by subscription, and Sorgeant Fredericks is the exclusive agent here. His place of busiqqss is at the next door north of the Journal office.

CANDIDATE SCLLIYAN FINED. He Has a Fight with a Former Employe and Is Arrested for it by the Police." Among the possessions of John E. Sullivan, the Democratic candidate for county clerk, is a fine farm a few miles southwest of the city. Last fall William C. Jones, an old soldier, became his tenant, the agreement being that Sullivan should pay him a dollar a day and he in turn, for the use of the farm, would give the owner one-half the garden truck, chickens and potatoes. In early spring Sullivan and his wife would drive out to the farm Saturday afternoon and remain until Monday. As it was not in the bond that Jones should furnish entertainment to his landlord, he protested, unless Sullivan was willing to pay at the rate of twenty cents each for meals and a reasonable sum for lodging. The difference between them did not make Jones’s tenancy very comfortable, but a truce was reached by Sullivan agreeing to pay for the Saturday and Sunday board for himself and family. But the exactions in having the best cuts of meats for the table, together with a bountiful supply of milk and good things from the garden, imposed a burden that Jones did not care about carrying any length of time. When it was suggested to him that the Sullivans would come down and spend the summer with him at the same rate of board the tenant refused to consider the proposition, unless more money was given him. This story Jones took to his attorney, Thomas Hanna, a few days later, when he wanted to ascertain nis rights in the lease of the farm. Matters continued in this way for a week or two longer, when Sullivan renewed his request for Jones to leave the farm, as he wanted to move there with his family. Jones did not appear to be in much of a hurry, and one day he was surprised by two colored men reaching the place with a lot of Sullivan’s household goods. A row occurred, and the men reported to Sullivan that Jones would not allow them to put the goods in the house until he had bis own moved out of it They further said that Jones swore at them, and upon this Sullivan had his tenant arrested for profanity. A justice of the peace fined the accused, and Sullivan agreed to pay the amount and costs if Jones would let him have possession of the place without further trouble. To this Jones assented. He left the farm with the, understanding that in the settlement, at a future date, he would get onehalf the chickens and potatoes. Yesterday he called at Sullivan’s poultry-house to adjust matters, but the latter, Jones says, refused to talk to him, saying, “I have no business with you.” The ex-tenant persisted in having a settlement, and Sullivan was equally persistent in claiming that he owed Jones nothing. Both became heated in the use of words, which, as Jones charged, led Sullivan to hit him. Ho gave him as good as he received, when Sullivan declined to carry on the fight. Jones thought the trouble had come to an end, and was about leaving the house, when two of Sullivan’s employes, one of them Tom O’Neil, assaulted him, while the employer held him so tightly that he could do nothing. Notwithstanding Jones hod the worst of it in having both eyes blacked and his faco cut. he was arrested for assault and battery, as wak Sullivan. They were taken before the Mayor, who acquitted Jones and fined Sullivan $lO and costs. Sullivan appealed the case. In explanation of the difference between Sullivan and his tenant regarding the payment for meals, the former says there is nothing in that statement. He would go down Sunday, and sometimes would eat dinner at tho house, but that was all. It was charged into the general monthly account Jones had with him for boarding hands on the farm. He, Sullivan, never disputed the accounts, and the only cause of trouble was that he believed Jones an unsatisfactory man to have on the place. He tried to get him off the farm, but he would not go. Last Night’s Promenade Concert. The G. A. R. promenade concert at Tomlinson Hall last night was not as well attended as it deserved, there being but abont throe hundred present. The fine programme, however, was artistically and conscientiously carried out. Beyer’s medley, “Recollections of the War,” was particularly well rendered by tho When Band. The singing by Miss, Nettie JohnsoD was received with heartiest manifestations of approval, and she was obliged to appear the second time, singing “Cornin’ Thro’ the Rye” as the encore. Miss Lee Timmons presided at the piano with rare grace and skill, and was made the recipient of applause and comSelled to give a second number. The Swiss ell-ringers did well, and Louis Vogt, in his violin solo, "Old Folks at Home,” was cordially applauded. Secretary Myers Loses His Pocket-Book, Secretary of State Myers lost a pocket-book, yesterday, containing $35 in money, a postal order, a hundred or more receipts for State statutes issued by him, together with other valuable papers. He forgot to take the pocketbook from a table where he temporarily placed it, but on returning for it he found that it was gone. Eyan, The Hatter, 21 and 23 South Illinois street.
