HOTEL WAITERS OX A STRIKE. . The Diningr-Room Employes of ths Kew Deniboq Quit Work at the Dinner Hour. At the New Denison Hotel, yesterday, just as dinner was about to be served, the waiters asked George I Taylor, the manager, to come to the dining-room. Everything was in readiness for the guests, but the waiters wanted a difference between them and the head waiter, Christy, settled before they would consent to serve at the table. They told Mr. Taylor that the head waiter . had seen fit to change them from one table to another as often as he thought proper. It was also stated tfiat his exactions were unbearable and unjust, especially in regard to broken dishes. They wanted him discharged, and if this was not done they would quit the New Denison service at once. Sir. Taylor promptly told them that the man would stay, and that if any of their number wished to remain it must be with the distinct understanding that they will submit to his orders. The eighteen or twenty servitors walked out of the dining-room, and directly afterwards left the hoteL With the assistance of two or three bell boys, chambermaids, and Mr. Taylor's two sons, the dinner passed off without any grumbling on the part of the jrues'a. They were satisfactorily served. Clerk Brooming ard Mr. Taylor divided the responsibility of seating the guests and directing the waiters. At supper the service was much improved, and the proprietors say they will have a new force of waiters to day, and that everything will be as if no strike had occurred. Mr. Martindale said the trouble arose through two or three discontented waiters who had been removed from tables where the tips were valuable, and that the changing around in order to make the service effective did not meet the withes of any except those who now and then rot & chance at the tips. As all belonged to tho tlotel Brotherhood, when one complained all complained. Mr. Taylor gave an additional cause for the strike in the head-waiter. Christy, folding the careless to a strict account for all ' the dishes they broke. The waiters say that Christy was too rigid in his management to suit liem. Will th Murderers Take Notice?

Northcott will read papers on "The Obserrance of tho Sabbath Day." W. P. Allison, a switchman on the Cincinnati, Indianapolis. St. Louis & Chicago road, was coupling cars near tbe Vandalia freight depot, yesterday morning, when his right arm was caught between the bumpers and badly mashed. Michael Evan, a suspicious character, was caught attempting to unfasten the shutters to Rose's photograph gallery, on West Washington street, yesterday afternoon, and was arrested by patrolman Spears, charged with attempted house-breaking. CACGHT AT LAST. Superintendent Travis had some of the new men on the police force out in citizens' dress, yesterday, endeavoring to eateb saloon-keepers violating the law, but they did not find much to do, as the majority of the saloons were closed, front and rear. The Circle Park saloon has always given the officers much trouble, but they never succeeded in jrettinsr in on Sunday nntil last evening. Patrolmen Manning and Weireck, in citizens' dress, managed to elude the puard at tbe door, and on the inside found a good business being dona The bartender, Joe Emminger, was arrested. CONCERT BY X CHURCH CHOIR. Under the direction of Professor Rudy the Central-avenue Church choir will eire a concert this evening, for the benefit of the SundayfichooL Miss Anna McLaughlin, from the Cincinnati College of Music, will render a vocal solo; Miss Stella Cole, of Mitchell.

Miss Anna McLaughlin and Mr. M. Bamberger will be soloists in the chorus work, with Miss Anna Wilcox as accompanist, who will also render an organ voluntary. NEW EVIDENCE REGARDING DE BURGER'S MURDER. The police hare not abandoned all hope of bringing to justice the murderers of George De Burger, the street-car driver. Two or three of the best officers, who have been privately investigating the case since the discharge of Haley and Bresnan announce that they have discovered some new evidence that will be submitted to the next grand jury. Nothing is expected from the present jury and it will not be intrusted with the case. It is not the intention of the officers to make any more arrests, unless, there Is some startling evidence discovered, but they will work quietly until the January jury meets, and then submit what they have. Several private detectives are also engaged on the case, but if they have discovered anything new they refuse to talk about it. ARRESTED FOR SHOOTING AT HIS WIFE. J. W. Harrison, a machinist, living in a tenement-bouse at the corner of Washington and Liberty streets, was arrested last evening, charged with shooting at his wife. A Mrs. Ballard was the only occupant of tbe block at the time tbe shot was fired, and it was upon her story that Harrison was arrested. She says that when the shot was fired Mrs. Harrison came running out of her husband's room and exclaiming that her husband was trying to murder her. After Harrison had been arrested, Mrs. Harrison came to tbe station-house and begged for his release. She claims that she was not in the room with her husband when the shot was fired. Mr. Harrison confirms her story, aod says that he was cleaning his revolver, when it was accidentally discharged.

"I never saw collections better and more prompt than they have been during the past four or five weeks," said a Meridian-street" merchant tbe other day. "This is not usually the case, especially among the country dealers who handle dry goods and clothing, when we have such a warm fall as we had this year. I know that many of our customers who laid in large stocks of flannels and other cold weather goods are still carrying them on their shelves, the farmers no doubt preferring not to purchase until forced to. However, they have probably had a large sale of lighter-weight materials this year, and will have to carry over very little for next seam . . 1 a. f son. ine mercnama mrougnuui me oiaie ana in the territory tributary to Indianapolis are in better financial standing than they have been for years, and this of itself is a guaranty that collections will remain good and that the wholesale trade of the eoming spring will not be devoid of activity." Industrial and Trade Notes. Tbe Carey Cooperage Company is manufacturing 1,800 lard tierces and 800 pork barrels per week for Kingan & Co. Tbe Indiana Manufacturing and Supply Com pany, which was organized last week, will make tiling ana nriCK macnines iceir specialties. The Eagle machine-works will to-dav com mence running their machinery in their new shops with their new 150-hore-power engine. The Jenney Electric Company is wiring the Indianapolis Car Manufacturing Company's works and will furnish them an electric lighting outfit. Tbe Milwaukee Bottling Company, which has been in operation for several years, has abandoned its field to the local beer-bottling estab lishments. Sinker. Davis & Co. last Saturday shipped one of their large saw-mills and engines to Nash ville, Tenn.. and another of their band saw-mills goes to St. Louis to-day. The Indianapolis glue factory handles 3,500 barrels of glue per annum. The tanners' refuse. from which they manufacture it, comes from tanneries in Wisconsin and Jmcnigan. The manufacturers of preserves and jellies are still pressed with orders. The Van Camp Canning Company and the Jennings Canning Company are both running day and night. Lavcock & Co., manufacturers of mattresses and lonnges, who were recently burned out, are rebuilding with stone foundation and brick walls. The new building will be 80x45 feet and three stories high. W. H. Wilson, foreman at the Indianapolis clue-works, has invented a machine, to be operated bv steam power, for cutting glue, which will do the work of ten men with foot power, the usual method of cutting glue. Ice-dealers state that there is 75 per cent. .less of ice stored at Indianapolis now than at the. corresponding period last year, and should the weather be mild thi winter there would be but little ice to ship to other points. Frank Bird's new stables will be ready for oc cupancy about tbe first of December. The DUlluing is 1-3 ices in lenia uy w in wiutu. Eighty horses and tbe usual number of carriages can be cared for in the building. Budd & Co. aro making more additions to their cold f tot age houses. They now have five buildings 150 feet long by 45 feet wide. At the r resent time they are packing away for spring sale 1,500 pounds of poultry per day. The Indianapolis packing-houses are slaugh tering about 5,oOO hogs per day, and would do even more business if tbe weather were cooler. So far as Indiana is eoneerned. the hog crop will fall considerably below tbe usual average. Tucker & Dorsey are putting up, for temporary use, a frame building 45 by Co feet. The permanent buildings, which will replace thoee burned, will be built of brick, and will be onethird larger than the buildings burned ten days ago. The Indianapolis wheel-works, an outgrowth of the Wood burn -Saver n whel-works, have, in the three years tbey have been in operation, built np a very handsome business. They now give employment to over 100 men, and are shipping their wheels to all parts of this country. The CI, L, St. L- & C company have, just put

. p. t : . 1 in a switch to their works, and on it tbey are handling ten to - fifteen cars per day. bringing in timber in tbe rough, and shipping out manufactured stock. There is' a ereat demand for bran and millfeed. One miller here has been offered $13.50 per ton for all the bran he produces for several weeks to come. The smaller towus where the corn crop was a failure are buying it freely for their stock, 7, ' " W. L. Gallup & Co. are selling a number of their belt-measuring and rolling machines, although they have not seenred letters patent on the invention. The machine, although very simple in construction, is a valuable one and will do the work of a number of men. The eneaustio tile-works were this week awarded the contract to f urnih the tile floors for tbe new court-bouse going up at Independence, Mo. They, on Wednesday, shipped a carload of tiling to Los Angeles, to be laid on the floors of a new hotel in process of erection. Inquiry among the bankers shows that Indianapolis merchants are in excellent shape financially. Most of them who had mortgages on their establishments have been able to lift them during the prosperous times of late, and but few are obliged to borrow money to meet current expenses. Dean Brothers will this week shin to the Troy. Iron and Steel Company, Troy, N. Y., a pair of pumping engines, capable of pumping four million gallons per day. The water will be drawn from the Hudson river and elevated to a height of one hundred feet. This is tbe second large set of pumping machinery furnished to this company by Dean Bros. Secretary Morgan, of the rolling-mill, has hit upon a novel way of preventing the water from freezing in tho immense tank at the rolling-mill. He has taken an old boiler and suspends it from tbe top of tbe tank in the center, and all tbe waste steam from one of their large boilers will pass through this boiler, which, he thinks, will thoroughly heat the water. While the saw-makers are fnll of work they are not so much crowded with orders, says one of the manufacturers, as they would have been, had there been no drought. For several months saw-mills which usually run the year round have been idle, so scant has the. water supply been, and this has decreased the orders for saws and cut down the usual amount of repairs. Indianapolis grain merchants are shipping more corn to points where in former years they have bought their corn than they are shipping to interior New York and New England points. It is stated that forty counties in this State will be obliged to buv corn this year, all of which are among the best core-growing counties inrthe State when there is no drought to damage crops. Nordyke & Marmon are making an addition to their already immense works by a shop 50 by 110 feet, having a foundation built of blocks from discarded French bubr millstones. These were imported from France during, the palmy days of millstone milling at great cost, but since the universal introduction of the roller system, millstones are far below par. Among tbe orders received lately by Nordyke & Marmon, is a contract for a roller mill costing $20,000, which is to be located near Dayton, O., where three prominent mill-furnishing establishments are located. The Cabinet Makers' Union is one of the prosperons manufactories of this city. It has an interesting history. Twenty-five years ago. fifteen or twenty of the employes of Spiegel & Thorns became dissatisfied with the amount of their pay . and formed an association among themselves to go into the manufacture of furniture. They commenced in a wooden building with some twenty workmen, sent out a wideawake solicitor and soon found a market for all their product. From this little beginning it has come to be the largest furniture manufactory in the city. The Union is now using the old wooden building as a lumber store-house, and occupy two buildings 150 feet long, 65 feet wide, and three stories high. They give employment to over 100 men. - Attractions at the Theaters. This week will be largely devoted to spectacular and scenic productions at the theaters. At English's to-night and to-morrow night, Bartley Campbell's fine play "Clio" will be given an elaborate production with special scenery and effects, including the earthquake scene, a strong cast and a ballet led by Mile. Astegiani. There will be no increase in prices. The latter part of the week tbe new melodrama "Beacon Lights" will be given. The finest spectacular production that is likely to be seen here for a long time will be that given at the Grand on Wednesday evening and during the remainder of the week, by Bolossy Kiralfy, of Sardou's master work "Dolores." Three car-loads of scenery and effects, a com- -pany of seventy-five people, including Newton Gotthold, Eleanor Carey and others, and two grand ballets, "The Wild Gypsies" aud "Dresdina," led by three famous European dancers, are the features of the production, which has been praised elsewhere as the finest ever put on the stage by Kiralfy. The sale of seats will begin this morning. Col. Anson Pona's stirring military drama, "Her Atonement," will be the attraction at the Museum all this week, with a cast that includes Gussie DeForresl, Jean Delmar, of this city, and others, and special scenery. Personal mention. Senator Harrison ha3 returned from the East. Rev. J. A. Rondthaler, pastor of Tabernacle Church, has been ill for a day or two, and last evening was unable to preach. Dr. S. D. Jones, of this city, died at Funiak Springs, Fla., yesterday morning. It is expect, ed that his remains will arrive here some time to-morrow. r Superintendent Travis has been presented with an elegant gold-headed cane by the heirs of the late Berner Reynolds, of Johnson county. Mr. Reynolds recently died suddenly in Texas, and Mr. Travis had the remains shipped back to the relatives. The caue was presented in appreciation of the services he rendered the family of the deceased. 112. TOQUE'S PLANS.

It Is Believed that lie Intends to Supply Natural Gas to Manufacturers Specially. There was some speculation, yesterday, on the purchase of the Broad Ripple company's leases, contract and stock by A. L. Pogue. It was intimated by some that the Indianapolis Natural-gas Company had an interest in the trade, but a direct denial of this came last night from Mr. Fletcher. "There is absolutely nothing in that supposition or rumor," he said. "We have a little stock in the company, but know nothing of Mr. rogue's negotiations or the character of the trade." Those who know Mr. Pogue say he has any amount of capital to support him in whatever he undertakes. He is himself wealthy, and is in a position to command Eastern money through capitalists who have operated with him in other enterprises. "He is," said one of his friends, "the shrewdest and nerviest man I ever saw in pushing to success . projects that others would regard as altogether unpromising. He is ready for anything, from trading a house and lot to building a railroad. He was here all week, but I assure you that I could not even surmise what he was after until I heard of his visiting the Broad Ripple wells. After that he caino to me to find out what I knew about them, but he never let me into the secret of the deal until it was nearly consummated." "He ought to have invited you to come in on ' the ground floor." was suggested. "Pogue is not that kind of a man. ne makes liis plans to suit himself, and when he gets ready he may ask me to take a place in tho garret. Whatever he says he will do, and he will do it quicklv." "Will the investment be profitableF "He can make it so. if his purposes aro what I think them to be. Ho can develop that region sufficiently to obtain 45,000.000 or 50,000.000 feet of gas per day. Tho last well is a good one of its class. There" is no doubt about that. It is flowing at the rate of 3,000,000 feet per day. and it was drilled in the direction where many more of its kindcun be obtained. The supply can be profitably utilized for special consumption, and I think that is Pogue's idea, lie will lay the pipe as rapidly as possible so as to get; to the city within the next two weeks. The gas he has got by that time will be sold to a few manufacturers solely. As the supply increases he will work to increase that class of customers in preference to others. I sincerely believe that before two years go by we will have six pipe-line companies supplying the city, and that within the next twelve months gas will be sold to manufacturers at 2$ cents per thousand feet." To-day the Cone liners' Gas Trust Company will organize a special canvass for the balance required to complete the $500,000 in subscriptions. It is confidently expected that a vigorous solicitation among those who can increase their subscriptions, and those who have been undecided, that but little trouble will be experienced in' the work. The aniovjtit to be raised is $1)1,000. The Protection of Gas-Trust Subscribers. To the Editor of the Indianaoolla Journal: After nearly five thousand persons have subscribed for stock in the Consumers' Trust Company, upon repeated representations and assurances that they oull sot lose any thing, and , 7 -

that, by reason of the powers of ''the trustees, their investment would be absolutely safe trom corporation wrecking, it seems new to be admitted by those in control of the matter that there is, at least, a great doubt whether the trustees have any power or authority over the stock that cannot be taken away from tbem at tbe pleasure of any stockholderor combination of stockholders, and the company be at once placed on tbe same footing. , as all other stock concerns. To remedy and,.cure all this, it is said it don't make any difference, because the Legislature can pass a law that will legalize it, as was done in the ease of the Belt railroad some years ago. But can the Legislature pass a law that will alter or change the vested rights of any stockholder! The Legislature does not meet for over a year. Is it proposed, in the face of these admitted doubts as to tbe power of the trustees to protect tbe stockholders from combinations and sellouts, to go on soliciting subscriptions and require the stockholders to pay up their stock before these questions are settled, or before the legalizing act is passed by , the Legislature! When the question of the legality of the Belt railroad bonds was raised, a halt was called and nothing more was done, and no payments were required upon stock until after the Legislature met and passed a law legalizing the whole matter. None of the gentlemen interested in the Belt road were willing to invest their money to build it as long as there was any doubt of the legality of- the city bonds? The same action should be taken now and the subscribers to tbe Consumers' Trust should not be asked to pay for their stock until there is positive assurance that they have not been induced to subscribe under false impressions as to their rights, and until there is positive assurance that the trustees have tbe perpetual and unqualified right to bold and control the stock, so that they may not be victimized by tbe "large fish eating up) the small ones." as has been so often done before in Indianapolis. When tbe bank breaks the' large and rich depositor gets security and is protected, while the poor and small ones lose . everything. When the stock company is wrecked or gobbled up it is all accomplished before the poor little stockholders learn anything about it. If legislation is necessary,-let us wait until we can get it: if we do not. I fear that we will be like tbe man who locked the stable after the horse was stolen. j. . Enehgy.

A Hat Pin in Her Brain. New Yoek, Nov. 12. A probably fatal accident occurred to Mrs. McPherson, of the Chelsea Hotel, this morning, in Macey's dry goods store. She was purchasing some articles when she was overcome by a fit of faintness and fell from a counter 6tool to the floor. The attendants promptly carried her into tbe ladies' reception room and tried . to revive her, but without success. A small stream of blood was trickling from her hair. They attempted to remove her hat to bathe the wound, when tbev discovered that the hat pin. in her bonnet had been forced through her skull and into her brain. An ambulance was summoned and she was conveyed to the New York Hospital, where the physicians declared she would die. Mrs. Mc- ! herson is about thirty-eight years old and exceedingly pretty. She will leave five children. Hats! The best and cheapest hats are at Seaton's Hat Store, 25 North Pennsylvania street. To Builders.
