A Timely and Eloquent Appeal to the Patriotism of the Ex-Soldiers. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. Looansport. Sept. 22. The Fifty-first and Seventy-third Indiana regiments held an interesting reunion at the Broadway rink last night. The address of welcome was delived by Captain D. B. McConnell, of this city, and was responded to by Colonels A. D. Streight and L N. Walker, of Indianapolis. The response of Colonel Walker was especially eloquent, and was frequently interrupted by bursts of applause. His allusion to the Anarchists wa especially apt and timely. He said: "But, comrades, we ought all to look forward with preat interest to the welfare and future destiny of our country. Let us look to onr civil affairs in the future. Anarchy is just as insidious a foe to American liberty,' as armed treason and rebellion. While we hold open the doors of this country for the entrance of all loyal people of Europe, while we are prepared to reeojrnize every man who comes for the pood of this country, it is our duty to see that no foreien socialistic institution may be permitted to implant itself upon oar soil, that shall threaten our law. "I thank God that a city of the West has had the courage to stand up and throttle these men that recognize no liberty but their own passions. I am elad to know that the law of the land is superior to them, and it will be from this time forth. Let us cherish the institutions that were saved by the Army of the Kepublic and the loyal peoole of the States." In conclufcion he said: "Though we be white with age and almost overcome in the waste of years, the sound of the bugle, the tap of the arum, the drapery of the starry ensign, the services on Decoration day, the magic of a hero's name, each and all shall force upon memory her wonted office, and recall to her very center the radiance of your valor, the bravery of your deeds, the glory of your triumphs. Believe me, comrades, the patriot is never dead. The hero lives forever." Old Railroad Project Revived. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. Marion, Sept. 22. The projeet of building the Toledo, Thorntown & St Louis railroad, which went to the wall several years ago under pressure of hard times, has been revived. The moving spirit of the enterprise is James II. Cable, of Lafayette, a railroad builder of many years' experience. Sir. Cable has been here the past two days in the interest of the projected line. He has been in the East the past thirty days, where he interested Eastern capital. The Toledo, Thorntown & St Louis road was first projected in 187L The right of way over nearly the entire road was acquired, and aid was voted in most of the townships through which it was to pass. Work wa3 commenced, and forty-two miles of the line between Tipton and Crawfordsville were graded, ready for the ties and iron. Money became scarce, and the work was abandoned, and all the acquired rights of the company lapsed. With better times and the development of the eountry through which the road was to pass, the projectors are encouraged to try it again. The route is from Fort Wayne through Allen, Huntington and Grant counties, and west from here it will touch Pt Isabel. Windfall Tipton, Thorntown, Crawfordsville, Eugene, cn the State line and thence to St. Louis by almost an airline. The line will pass through a rich agricultural country and through the Part county coal fields, and there is no reason why it should not prove a prosperous and paying road. Contracts have been signed for grading and construction, and the steel has been ordered for the first fifty miles west from Fort Wayne. The Stndebakers at Paoli.

The parade exceeded the wildest calculation. Numerous displays not expected entered the procession and stretched it out to fifteen miles in length. Principal among the historic floats were those illustrating the different stages of the city's growth. Tbe eity in 1812 was shown, again in 1816, and last the City in 1837 was illustrated by an allegorical tableaux car. A model river steamer plied a minature river, upon whose banks trains of cars ran rushing by in the background. Figures representing progress in agriculture, mining and manufacturing were beautifully grouped under a silken canopy of the national colors: A series of floats representing the mining interests earned much praise. The farmers of adjoining townships made displays. The manufacturers of agricultural implements, at much expense, gathered a collection of farm implements of the year 1800, and they contrasted strangely with the traction engines, harvesters, threshers, etc., made in this city to-day.

Though I represent to-day bat a part of the Southern people, I can say that it gives all residents of the South the greatest pleasure at this kindly and fraternal feeling toward them, and all will .vie with you to see which can best promote the interest and welfare of the country. I am pleased with this reception, and let me say that this is not my first visit to Indiana. Several years ago I had the fortune to extend certain courtesies to the city of New Albany, Ind. Later on 1 was captured at Fort Donedlson, and sent up the river, guard by a company of soldiers from this vicinity. Being placed in strong quarters at Now Albany, I was waited on by the Mayor and a delegation of citizens, and tendered the freedom of the city. And I should have been very glad if I could have obtained any sort of freedom. Laughter. To-day I am tendered the same courtesy byyour citizens and soldiers. Comrades and ladies and gentlemen Thanking yon for your kind attentions, allow me to bid you adieu. From Another Correspondent. Evansville, Sept 22. The third day of the reunion of the "blue and the gray" dawned clear and pleasant, remaining so until the afternoon, when the clouds came up and several heavy showers of rain felL The entire mornine was occupied by the grand industrial parade, which was by far the finest display ever witnessed in the West. When the matter was first broached it was never supposed that a parade of this kind conld be made to assume such mammoth proportions.

The streets along the line of march were packed with people, and at times it was almost impossible for the procession to proceed. At tbe grounds this afternoon ttie crowd was estimated at from forty to fifty thousand. At 2 o'clock Governor Buckner, of Kentncky, and Gov. Isaac P. Gray, were escorted to tbe grounds, and the former made a brief address, after which the competitive artillery drill commenced.

No Prospect for Keller for the Miners In the Lehigh Valley Region. New York, Sept 22. A Wilkesbarre special says: There is every prospect that the strike of the coal miners in the Lehigh region will be an obstinate and protracted one. The outlook on the miners' side of the trouble is for a long continuance of the suspension. They are taking their tools from the mines as fast as they are allowed to enter and get them. The Hungarians in the Panther-creek valley have made application to tha railroad company for two freight cars to load their tools, so that they mieht leave the region altogether. Meetings of the Knights of Labor have been held throughout the region, and a circular has been drawn np and sent to the miners of the Wyoming and Lackawanna valleys asking for assistance. On the side of the operators there is said to be some signs of weakening. Several of the smaller companies have asked their men not lave the region at present, and one or two individual operators who cannot stand the loss incurred by their collieries standing idle, are said to be ready to give the advance, but are restrained by the others. The following companies and operators signified, by written communication, their desire to resume work at their collieries under the same agreement as the Philadelphia & Reading Coal and Iron Company: Union Coal Company, Mt Carmel Bellmore colliery, Garfield Coal Company, Enterprise colliery, and Jesse May & Ca's Shamokin Crystal colliery, John R. Davis and Ellsworth colliery, New Castle. These are all in the Schuylkill region. As yet not a word has been spoken of resumption in the Lehigh region, where 22,000 men are still out Iron Manufacturers Organize. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. Pittsburg, Sept 22. Trouble, promising to be of a more serious nature than has ever before arisen, is brewing between the Amalgamated Association of Iron and Steel Workers and the manufacturers. The question at issue is tbe manner of running the different mills controlled by the association. The manufacturers say that they have been careful to observe all agreements made, bnt the association has broken faith so often that the time has arrived when the manufacturers must come to an understanding among themselves by which they can resist ail demands that they consider nnjust Consultations have already been held with the object of forming a manufacturers' association on a gigantic scale. It is proposed that hereafter each firm will not undertake to settle difficulties on the wage question individually, but will depend upon the combined support of all the other manufacturers. Disputes will be referred to a coamilteo of the manufacturers' as
sociation, which will be empowered at all times to take decisive action. It is hinted that strikes will be numerous this winter, and tbat more than one mill will be closed down while the contending parties lock horns and fight it ont Tha Amalgamated Association Is in a position to make a warm fight, and the members who were spoken to to-day regarding the report said that they would do all in their power to prevent a rupture of peaceful relations, but that they would demand and insist upon their rights. "Bluff," said one, "cannot scare us. We are able to hold our own." The Raildinir Trades' Council. Chicago, Sept. 22.
