. Cokydon, Oct 12. The Louisville Times and
sther sensational papers compare Harrison
, tounty to the Kentucky counties" of Bell and
Rowao, and say that a reign of terror exists here a account of the depredations of 'the "White
Caps." All Bach stuff is the sheerest nonsense.
sad is very ridiculous to those who are acquaint
ed with the facts. It is true that there are "White Caps," and that they hare done many
things which were calculated to brine reproach upon the county; but it, is not true that a reign of terror exists, and that
men, women and children are flogged until they fall from exhaustion and that men are frequently shot down in their door-yards. Har
rison is one of the best counties in the State, and her people are industrious and happy. It
has about 150 public schools, nearly that num
ber of cnurches, and stands at the head in the
Sunday-school cause. The people protest against
being compared to the bloody counties of Ken
tucky, and know tnat they do not deserve any
such censure. Wabash Detective Companies. , Special to the Indlanasolls Journal.

Felix, a restaurateur and confectioner of this place, procured a few weeks ago a large amount of goods, coniting largely of cigars and tobacco, from Indianapolis and Chicago wholesale houses, by representing that he had an account with Tomli neon's Bank, of this place, on which they might draw for payment. Soon after the good's arrived Felix mysteriously disappeared, leaving his business here in charge of a younger brother, I who proceeded to rapidly dispose of the new stock. The creditors applied a few days ago to the bank here for payment, and were greatly surprised to learn that they had been swindled. The store has been closed and a levy placed on the remaining stock and fixtures. Felix re

Corbin, now in jail at Sullivan, 111., to answer to the charge of murdering Charles T. Harris, ten days ago, is again attracting attention. Corbin's principal attorney, Hon. John R.

The case will be given a hearing on Friday next The burden of the evidence is against Corbin, most of the witnesses to the act agreeing that he not only fired the two first

A DISASTROUS STORM.
A Mexican Town Destroyed, Eight Thousand
Feopie Homeless, and Many Lives Lost. Nooales, A. T., Oct 12. One of the most disastrous storms ever known on the southern coast of Mexieo occurred on the 7th and 8th. The city of Quelito, a town of more than 8.000 people, was totally destroyed and many lives lost Telegrams give accounts of the most affecting scenes, many women, children and men foundering in the stormy current and crying for help, which was not at hand. No particulars are obtainable, as the wires are down. Dispatches state the supposition is that a number of wrecks occurred in the gulf, but the facts cannot be ascertained. Later dispatches to the Associated Press report the entire coffee and orange crop in Sinaloa destroyed.

.impression that the Prevailing; Harmony Is
Certain to Tie Broken. Minneapolis, Minn., Oct 12. The legis
lative committees report approving the Blair educatjonal bill, the eight-hour day for mail carriers, the Foran bill relating to
homesteads, and providing that such settlers may borrow $500 from the government secured
by the land, at 3 per cent, demanding that the
government building contracts provide for
weekly payment of workingmen, and approving
the recommendations of the general master workman's address in favor of government control of the telegraph and. telephone systems of the country,, was adopted. The principal part of the afternoon session was devoted to the report of the committee on strikes and boycotts. "Inexpedient to legislate," was the recommendation of the committee regarding a document asking that a unAcial human of
strikes and boycotts be established. Although the report was sharply antagonized, the majority of the assembly agreed with the committee, and no bureau will be formed. Continuing its report, the committee offered several suggestions as to the eonduct of strikes and boycotts. Several delegates here preferred complaints against certain concerns in different parts of the country, but all were referred to the general executive board, on the ground that the boycott must not be used except after the most careful investigation and consideration of the circumstances. In this connection it was asked that a boycott be placed noon all scab-made cigars offered in boxes bearing the picture of General Master Workman Powderly. This fraud has been systematically used and was vigorously denounced as one of the meanest impositions practiced on those who wish to buy only the union-made goods. This, with the other charges, was referred to the general executive board. The subject of conspiracy coming up, a Pittsburg delegate stated that he had been arrested six times on this charge, when his only OiTttnse was that of putting his bead out of tha window alter nightfall. Another said that thirty Knights were locked up for playing Hail Columbia" before the entrance to a coal-mine during a strike It was also averred that some men had been under indictment in Kentucky for the simple fact of belonging to, the order. Cases of hearties blacic -listing and malicious prosecution on the part of the enemies of the order were cited with freedom, but the report of the committee advising the reference of all cases for investigation was finally adopted. The closing words, "Think before you strike, don't boycott
neip it, were signincant or the advanced position of the order on these important subjects.
A recommendation of the committee that the
assistance fund be abolished, as it tended to en
courage strikes, and asking for the enforcement

Several delegates wereexcused to-day and re.
turned to their hemes, their leare of absence having expired. There is an impression prevalent among the deleeates that the nreaAnt naa-
eion has been unusually harmonious, and too
much so to last There have been only two
noteworthy tilts in the convention up to to-day. The first was ovef the Buchanan matter and the
second over the Anarchist question, Monday afternoon. A good many of the delegates do not hesitate to say that something will yet be introduced in the
convention that is bound to create a big turmoil. Said a well-posted and woll-balanced delegate, who is a pronounced administration . man, this
morning: "The work of the convention is running along altogether too smoothly to last ' The antis are taking things too easy. They have
sprung one or two things on the convention in
order to learn the strength of the two f Actions.
In both cases they have besn defeated. Bnt

The Engineers' Brotherhood Sned. New York, Oct. 12. The strike on the ele
vated road in Brooklyn will be recalled by a suit against the Brotherhood of Locomotive'
Engineers of the United States and Canada,
growing out of the strike. The eomplaint will be filed in the Supreme Court, and involves the
test of claims against the brotherhood for $4,600.
During the time of the strike the loeked-out engineers did everything in their power to preyent the company from getting men to fill their places. In many instances the men applying for positions were offered $3 50 a day to refuse
to take tne places, and the consideration ex
pressed for the payment was "workioe for the
Drotnernooa." iney were told that they would receive pay from the brotherhood for three months. A large number of men accepted these

Troubles of the New York Printers.
New York, Oct 12. Typographical Union
No. 6 having made arrangements with Harper
Brothers by which the latter are allowed to re
tain their non-union employes, C. Bourgone, of
the Quick Printing Company, declared to-night that unless the union compelled the Harpers to
employ union men exclusively he would iock out
maZaO men on Saturday morning and advertise
for non-union printers and compositors. Mr.
Bourgone has hitherto been favorably inclined
toward the union. All the pressmen employed
in tne large concern of Theodore L. Devinne left in a body at noon to-day. because of De-
viunes refusal to make bis establishment a card ofnee. Devinne is the printer for the Century
company.
A card has been signed by twenty printing
nrms ceclarme that they will not accede to the demand of the Typographical Union that they
discharge all non-union printers and hereafter
hire only union men. They will advertise in the morning papers for 1,000 printers, to whom
positions will be guaranteed at union wages. Harper & Brothers have compromised with the union. They are to retain the non-union me'n
now employed oy mem, out are to aire no more
without first consulting the union.

? xxevelakd, u., Oct. 12. The horrors of a fierce fire in the smoke and confusion of which stalked the presence of grim death in his most terrible form, visited the great insane asylum on the southern limits of the city for the second, time to-night The Northern Ohio Insane Asylum, with its handsome, massive buildings and its queer community of mentally bereft people, is always a place of awe-inspiring interest, but to-nieht the scenes about it and within its walla would have baffled tha genius of a Dora. It was the occasion of the weekly dance, given to the more manageable of the patients as a healthy means of recreation. About three hundred and fifty of them, in charge of their attendants, were enjoying the diversion thus af
forded them, when the cry of "Fire!" arose, and flames and smoke poured in upon them with bewildering suddenness. A stampede was the result, and the attendants had scarcely time to realize the situation when the room was filled with fire and dense smoke. As soon as the first excitement had abated, the attendants made a courageous rush into the suffocating smoke and rescued alt they could of the unfortunates who had been overcome. The bodies of six insane women who had met death by asphyxia and burning were recovered, and three more were found in an iniured condition.
Two of the dead were unrecognizable. The names of the others are: Mrs. Margaret Pitts, Mifcs Jennie B. Hall. Miss Evelvn Scrihnnr m
Mrs. Charlotte Knowlton. The iniured n.r-
Miss Caroline Knowlton, cousin of Charlotte,
perhaps fatally; Miss Jane Black and Miss M.rv

Bus for the heroic conduct of the physicians and
attendants, who rushed into the blinding smoke and flames, and dragged the terror-stricken in- . sane people fronj the chapel, the loss of life must have been terrible. As it was. the side of the chapel was on fire before all the unfortu
nates had been removed. The fire started in th
laundry, a one-story building, which adjoins the wing in which the chapel is located. The
prompt response and active work of the firemen prevented a disastrous spread of the flames, and the loss to property will fall below $25,000. Had the fire occurred on any other niebtof the week
there would have been no loss of life.
The eonduct of Superintendent Boone, of the work bouse, in releasing and voting prisoners on Tuesday, may cost him his position. Mr. Boone was about the Mayor's conrt yesterday morning, when Sergeant McKinney called his attention to the fact that he had released Ryan and Craig without any authority from the Mayor. Mr. Boone replied that he had consulted a lawyer and had foend that he had as
much right to remit a fine as the Mayor. While the superintendent was boasting of what power he possessed he was handed a letter summoning him to appear before Mayor Denny to-day. He had not expected that be would be brought up for contempt and was greatly surprised by the letter, which was very severe in its comments
upon bis conduct, it is tbe intention or Mayor Denny to fully investigate the charges that have been made against the superintendent with reference to his conduct Tuesday, and if found true he will be cited for contempt

TARIETI IN KENTUCKF. The Mayor of Louisville Knocks Ont Several lleinbers of the Municipal Government.
Lot.isvii.ie. Ky., Oct 12. Municipal circles were thrown into reat excitement to-night, the cause being the belligerent behavior of Mayor Reed and J. M. Atherton, a director in tbe gas company. At a meeting of the gas committee of the General Council, recently, Mayor Reed urged the purchase of the company by the City, the latter already possessing four-ninths of the stock. His recommendation excited much opposition. To-night, in the meetiDg, Mayor Reed accused the management of the company of purchasing legislation. Mr. Atherton responded that such a eomplaint did not come well from a man like him, wherupon the Mayor made for the gentleman, knocking
him down and bruising him generally. He also came into contact with Charles Kramer, wharf-master, who came to Atherton's assistance, and later on attempted to fight Councilman Griffith, but was prevented. Tbe gentlemen were all perfectly sober.
