Mrs. Ewing Tells Entertainingly How to Get the Best Results Out of Fine Hour. ' Mrs. Emma P. Ewing, professor of domestic economy at Purdue University, who Is to give a series of cooking lectures here, under the auspices of the Ladies' Union, of. Plymouth Church, gave her initiatory lecture, last evening, before a largo and wellpleased audience, about one-third of whom were men, who manifested unusual interest. Mrs. Ewing was introduced by Rev. O. C. McCulloch. Sho took for her first subject bread, and began by saying that, in the whole line of cooking, there was nothing so importaut as properly prepared bread, ns it was eaten three times a day in every family, and a perfectly developed grain of wheat contains every constituent or tho bnman body." Sarah Hacktit Stevenson once said, the lecturer continued, that there were CO.OTO pototlices in tho United States, and each one could support a woman physician. I ho speaker thought it was very well to have ic m bat would rejoice to see a good woman baker in everv one of those towns, instead. Dread-making is not tho laborious task it -was m our grandmothers davs. Ihe improved wheat, the tine machinery which reduces it to Hour, and all the modem ap pliances of tho mills render such perfect Hour that the method of making has become a very easy matter. New flour made into bread by tho old methods would be liko put ting new wine in old bottles. Mrs. Ewing explained tho scientific and chemical action and tho differences in making bread, and tho loss of its nutritious finalities wneu improperly mads. The lormnbi which she uses in mariner bread U: One Quart of water and sweet milk in eual

parts: add a teaspoonful of salt and an ounce of compressed yeast dissolved in 8ome of the milk and water; then add flour until it is of the proper consistency, which, when turned out on a board, is stilf enough to knead without sticking. Tho temperature throughout the mixing shonld be 75 degree. After it is mixed it should be put into a greased bowl and stand for about three hours, when it can 1 made into loaves, placed in tins and allowed to rise again. Then bake. The whole time employed in makingbread, from the mixing till it is done, should not exceed live hours. She quoted Professor J'ago, head teacher of the technical tschool at Brighton. England, who, in a round of the bake-sbops,had found them very dirty, and men mixing bread in a temperature of fcO degrees, and perspiring freely. Bread, she said, should not be made in an impure atmosphere. Mrs. Ewing had four long, twisted loaves of bread and some dough which were made yesterday morning by the young women at tho university, and at the close of the lecture she cut tho bread and served it, and thcro was not enough for all to have some. The members of the domestic economy department cooked and served dinner yesterday to what Mrs. Ewing termed ono hnndrcd hungry Indiana legislators," which remark created a ripple of laughter, and the bread eaten last night was made while that army of men were there. The audience was demonstrative, greeting many of her remarks with applause. At tho close of tho lecture Mr. McCulloch mado a short and happy speech, relating apropos incidents, the lessons to be given are all practical. The articles are made before the audience. The first lesson will be given this moraine, at 10:30 oclock, on the subject of breadVienna bread, graham bread, French roils, crescents and sticks. At the meeting it will bo decided whether the hour for the lessons shall remain the same or be changed to the afternoon. Friday tho lesson will be soups, plain, clear and vegetable, and other lessons will follow on Wednesday, Thursday and Friday of next week. In the audience, last night, were Mrs. Hodges, tho president of the board of the Training School forNurses, and all the nurses of the school. Mrs, Ewing invests her talks with many incidents and remarks that niako them interesting aside from the information they contain. MOORE'S MALADMINISTRATION.

Colonel Greene Thinks There Is & Well-Defined IUTiose to Injure Ills Company. Jacob L. Greene, president of tho Connecticut Mutual Life Insurance Company, arrived last night. He remarked to the reporter that he was very tired from his long journey and excused himself on this account from making any statements of his position and the company's intentions just then in regard to matters attending Moore's defalcation, though he said there was now nothing to be particularly withheld and ho would give a freo expression upon it soon. "What do you think of the feeling manifested here toward your company!' "Why, I am very greatly surprised at it, to say the least. I read in the morning papers to-day about it. and I can come to ut one conclusion regarding it. 1 believe hat it is a deliberate scheino worked up in his city and State by rival companies to injure us. lo be sure, l nave no positive evidence yet, but that is ruy candid judg ment." "What is your opinion of tho action taken by the policy-holders?" I cannot now express mvself n this poiut, as I do not know just tho immediate influences that have occasioned it." "Do the policy-holders in the East feel the same as they do here!" "rsot in the least, and that is what makes this demonstration in Indiana a lono of all tho States seem so peculiar. Policy-holders everywhere are as much, anectetla.shere.and am at a loss to account lor it. I Ins West ern ferment here is evideutly tho result of some outside persons working for com panies who desire, if possible, to ruin our reputation. 1 think that if tho centlemen here had known the exact status of things they would have talked somewhat differ ently." "Had you expected a positive action so soon?" "Well, hardlv. I had expected to meet the policy-holders this wees, and had not learned till this morning of the postpone ment until next week." Call of the Policy-Holders. In the matter of the proposed investiga tion of the Connecticut Mutual Life In surance Company by its policy-holders here, tho committee appointed by them held a meeting, yesterday, and issued tho following formal call: , To the Indiana Policy-holders of the Connecticut Mutual Life Insurance Company: At an earnest meeting of policy-holders of tho Connecticut Mutual Life Insurance Company, in this city, on the 5th day of February, 188U, it was unammousiy resoivea mat a general call be issued to policy-holders throughout tho 8tate of Indiana to meet with them at their adjourned meeting at 1 o'clock p. sr., ou next Tuesday, tho 12th mat., at Buperior Court room No. 3. in tho court-house, Indianapolis, to consider and determine upon the best plan of action necessary to conserve and promote their interest, in view of the affairs of tho company and Its business methods, as developed by the late ,Moore defalcation. In order that prompt action may be had. pol icy-holders generally aie invited to be present; and It is recommended that those Uving in counties remote from the city select representa tive persons who win attend and act in their behalf. President Greene has signified his intention to bo here and take part in the meeting. lewis C. Walker, Chairman. Wm. Henderson; David W. Coffin, JcsTrsC. ADAMS, Jacob L. Bieler, Committee on Notification. Henrt D. Pierce, Secretary. The Sheriff's "Warrant. Nothing further in tho way of definite, information has been heard concerning Joseph A. Moore. Sheriff King holds a capias for his aris)t, and Vice-president Abbot suggested that the police examine Glen Ethel, near this city, lor the late loan manager; but as no warrant was sworn out Chief Travis declined to send an officer there. The Indiana Trust and Safety Deposit Company, of which Moore was tho owner, is nearly dennded of deposits, most of the renters having removed their boxes. C. E. llarrett tiled two powers of attorney with the. county recorder yesterday, which gave him full power to wind up Moore's mundane aflairs. An errorenous use of his name in place of Moore's in yesterday's Journal might convey a wrong impression to the casual reader. The item stated that Mr. Abbot, in his testimony before the grand jury, said Mr. Bnrrett admitted his dishonesty. It should have been that Moore admitted his dishonesty to all of them. The only additional suit filed in this county against Moore, yesterday, was by tho Fireman's Fund Insurance Company, to recover Sl.C34.07, tho amount of premiums belonging to that company which Mooro converted to nis own use. CIJLL1NGS FROM THE COURTS. Arrests of Sereral Persons Indicted tor Alleged Election Offenses. The persons against whom indictments for alleged election offenses have been returned by tho United States grand jury givo bond very readily, and the smallness of the amount shows upon what trivial testimony a majority of the cases have been brought. Nearly all of them relate to swearing in illegal voters who are said to havolost their residence by moving from Indiana and returning. Many of them, it is claimed, have proof that will show their right to citizenship in Indiana, and that the indictments against those who vouched for them when challenged have been procured on the weakest evidence. Yesterday tho arrests of Clarence Hrockway. John Knapp. Nicholas Jaggers. Osmer C. Brockway and Thomas Robert, of Benton county, were reported to the United states marshal by his deputy. Ward. Other deputies arrested Hngh M. Light, of Newton county, on two indictments; John Dillon, of Madison county, on four; CharlesFielder, of Delaware; Albert O. Marsh, John E. Maikel and James M. Fletcher, of Randolph. au gave oonu in mo sum oi taie in; the evening Deputy MarshalTaylor brought in Edward M. Jones, colored, of the Fouxt ij ward. He is charged with swearing in illegal votes, and was required to give a oja'o-tbonsand-dollar bond. Yesterday James Thomas and Frank Ifoble pleaded not guilty to the election indictments against them. William BlEcly filed a demurer to the effect that theo was not sufficient ground for action agau iscliim. The Better Half. If the statements in tho comp).aiut filed by Morton Williams in an actior bgun by him for a divorce against Mamfo V Williams

in the Superior Court, yesterday, are veracious, -ths usual conditions attending ; marital incompatibility have been TeTerscd. Usually it is tho husband under such circumstances who inflicts castication, but Morton swears that Mamie has been in the habit of beating him in addition to scandalizing him by her walk and conversation. He sets forth tho pain and anguish ho has endured as a consequence of the misuse of Mamie's fist and tongue, and prays for an absolute separation and such other relief as may bo proper.

Tho convention of coal operators and miners, yesterday forenoon appointed a committee to agree upon a scale and then took a recess, pending tho session of the committee, which consisted of the following persons: Indiana Operators, M. A, Johrtston. David Ingle; miners. P. H. Penna. .Joseph Cantwelf. Ohio Operators, 1L Y. Ohapman, H. D. Turney; miners, J. McBride, W.T. Lewis. Pennsylvania Opera.tors, Geo. W. Schludcrberg, John Blythe; miners, John D. Conway, Patrick McBryde, , The committee organized with Mr. John ston as chairman and Patrick McBryde as secretary. Geo. Schluderberg moved the adoption of the scale base of last vcar Hocking, GO: Pittsburg, CU; Revnoldsville, 65; Indiana block, 80; Indiana bituminous, G5. Mr. Johnston, on behalf of Indiana operators, asked for a reduction of the scale base 10 cents per ton on Indiana block and 5 cents per ton on Indiana bituminous, arguing that tho introduction of natural gas and crude vtroleum as fuels and in competition with coal compelled operators oi Indiana to ask a readjustment. He was followed by Mr. JohnMcBride on behalf of the miners opposingthealteration of the scale base. To strengthen his position he gave figures showing the relative increase in the diff erent coals in. the Chicago matket. For tho purpose of showing; that f ha' scale base supported by the majority of tho committee has awarded fair treatment to the coal fields of Indiana, as compared with competing fields governed by scale competition ho quoted statistics of coal shipments to the Chicago market. This market has always been mado the basis of all decisions upon the relative differences of tho iliflerent coal fields. He showed, iu 1SS6, Indiana coal in Chicago, 074,500 tons; in 1887, 1,075,615 tons, an increase over 1S8 of 401.106 tons, equal to 59 1-3 per cent.; in 1888. 1,051,183 tons, an increase over 1886 of 377,614 tons, equal to 55 1-3 per cent. The average increase for tho years 18S7 and 1858 overl88G is 389,305 tons, equal to a percentage of 57 1-2. Ohio coal had, in 1886, 491,327 tons in Chicago; in 18S7. 678,870 tons, an increase over 1S66 of 1S9,543 tons or 38 1-2 per cent,; in 1SS8, 55L408 tons, an increase over 1886 of 00,081 tons, equal to a percentage of 13 1-3. The average Ohio coal tonnage of 18S7 and 1888 over 188G was 124,815, equal to 25 1-3 per cent. Illinois coal in 1886, in Chicago, 1,231,681 tons; in 1887, 1,454,825 tons, showing an increase of 223.144, equal to 18 1-20 per cent, over 18S6; in 18S8, 1,920,300 tons, an increase over 1880 of 694,625 tons, equal to 56 1-3 per cent. The average for 1887 and 1888 over 1886, 458,8S4, equal to 37 1-4 per cent. These figures show Ohio's average gain since 1886 25 1-3 per cent; Illinois sine e 1886, 37 1-4; Indiana since 1886, 57 1-2. In 1&.1 tho total tonnage of Pennsylvania ccal shipped to Chicago was 389,775; ht lf7t 431,410, in 18S8, 413,864, This shows an aVeTage gain of 32,862 tons for 18S7 and 1888 over 1S.S6. Mr. Johnston replied, admitting tho, fairness of the figures, but 6aid that it was impossible for tho operators of Indiana to agree to the present scale base. Mr. Schluderberg said as Mr. Johnson admitted they could not get into the markets of the Pittsburg operators at tho lakes, ho failed to see tow changing the scrde base could benefit Indiana operators. Mr. Turney, of Ohio, while not satisfied 'with the scale base as the operators of 'Ohio considered the ditTerence between Ohio and Pittsburg was too small, but iu the interest of harmony they were prepared to go on. When the vote was taken t ho Indiana operators voted in the nega'tiv e, the vote standing 10 to 2. On the retpovt of the committee to tho convention it, v,-as moved the majority report be concun.vd in. Col. Yeoman moved to amend that, Indiana block be redeced from 80 cents Ut, 70 cents on the scale base, and bitumino us from 65 cents to 00 cents. .The evening vas tak.en up in the discussion of this motion, n'Aa'rly every operator speaking and every phase of coal mining and handling being -exhibited. Colonel Rend, in the course c,f his remarks, created considerable amusement by saying that every ton of tho Ir,diana operators, members or the con ven on would be lead to believe, influenced ft members of the Legislature to legislate them into the penitentiary, while the 'rffect of the scale would be to send them to .tfue poor-house. Alter long disc ussion, the Indiana operatorswere won over to the majority, and the convention adopted tho base scale of last ?Sarv lne Cl in vention then adjourned until this morr iJg at 9 o'clock. Uig Scl xt;me of Pittsburg Operators. ITTSBU fGrf Ffeb. 6,-Tlie Monongahela river coal operators are quietly consider ing a mxa imoth scheme, which will tend to 1 A . ' piace irtt) river coal business once more on a pay to ,5 business. It is the formation of a large P l.T'n?iTlxr r inolnrla (til 4ha minaa nn tlie M 6'jongahela and Kanawha rivers, and an thu boats run on the rivers. These quesiions have been under consideration for boot J time, but owing to the demoralization 01 mde nothing was done. A year ago a P? er was circulated for this purpose, and fer nine-tenths of the onerators here ' t gned it. The plan proposed for the formation of the company is to appraise the boats. 'mines and everything belonging to the various companies used in the coal trade at t their present value, and then issue stock for me auu amount, 1 nose wno uo not wisn to enter the company can dispose of their holding at a fair price. A prominent operator, in speaking of the 6cheme,said: mis combination will no a genuine com pany, not a trust. Our obiect will bo to correct the irregularities that now exist in trade; to conduct our business unon a more economic basis, and not put up the price of coai oeyona wnat would bo a lair rate lor both producer and consumer. If the Twice of coal was put up too high it would have a tendency to cause the establishment of in dependent coal companies, but no independent coal company can compete with such a large concern as is now proposed, bo cause of the expense."

CRUELTY AT SEA. Two Men Trust Their Lives to a Raft and the Icy Waves to Escape Brutal Treatment.

New York, Feb. 6. When the steamboat Old Colonj of tho Fall river line, reached her dock at Pier 28, North river, this afternoon, among tho passengers was a corpse and a sailor badly frozen, and whose life was despaired of by Captain Hammond and his crew. As soon as the steamboat had tied up to the dock, a Chambers-street Hospital ambulance was summoned, and tho half -dead sailor was taken away for treatment. As soon as he was ablo to talk ho told a remarkable tale of cruelty, hardship and exposure. Ho said his name was Leander Kaldoon, that he was a Swede, and had lived in Boston for over three years. He shipped on the three-masted schooner J. F. Keans, which sailed from Pier 11, this city, on the morning of the 4th, bound for Port Elizabeth, South Africa. He claimed that before tho vessel sailed ho and other sailors were cruelly treated by Capt. McDonald, of the Keans, and First Mate Harris, who repeatedly threatened to brain them with a belaying pin ' if they did not obey orders more promptly. Kaldoon also said that the crew was not more than half fed, and such food as was served was unfit to eat. Almost before the schooner had passed through Hell Gate, four of the crew decided to desert. On deck were a number of logs and plenty ot loose planks. The deserters planned to rig a raft, throw it overboard after darfc and trust to luck to find a safe haven. They found it impossible to construct a raft largo enough to hold four men, so they drew lots to see who would make their escape. Kaldoon and a man whom he knows only as 'Bill,w won tho prizes. At 11 o'clock last night they succeeded in successfully launching the raft and left tho vessel. At that time the wind was blowing shoreward and the deserters expected to make a landing on the Connecticut shore. Shortly afterwards the wind shifted and they were carried out toward the middle of the sound. A heavy sleet storm set in. The ice-cold waves washed over their frail craft, and repeatedly they wero washed overboard. "Bill" first succumbed to tho cold, and it was with difficulty that his companion could keep him on the raft. At 8:30 this morning, tho steamer Old Colony came plowing through the sound on her way to this city. When about four miles off New Haven, Captain Hammond discovered tho raft Ho sent Mate Sullivan in a small boat to tho rescue, and tho perishing men were soon on board the steamboat. Restoratives were used and the half-frozen men were rolled in blankets and rubbed. The man "Bill" was beyond human aid. He gasped a few times and then died. There was nothing on his clothing to tell who he was. His body was taken oft" the steamboat lato this afternoon and removed to tho morgue. Kaldoon is getting along well. Captain Hammond says tho men were encased in ice when rescued and he had no idea of saving the lives of either. THE BROKEN STRIKE. Cars Running on All the New York LinesComplete Defeat of the Knights. New York, Feb. 6. The great tie-up is over. Some cars are running on all the surface roads, and on nearly all of them . the full number are running. The reserve police are still kept on duty, and tho patrolwagons are still in readiness, but the officers have been withdrawn from most of the cars. The strikers are pouring back to the depots in search of work. Generally speaking, tho roads are glad to have their old hands if they come as individuals. The roads are unanimous in refusing to employ any man who comes as the representative of a union organization. The Secondavenue line are taking all tho old men back. The Broadway line are receiving no applications from new men. On all. the, lines .tho men . who are given work have to sign a paper to the effect that they are not and will not bo subject to tho order of any labor organization. The refiul t will bo that there will not be a union car-line in New York. This course was adopted by the Third-avenue line on the last preceding strike, and they were able to run during the strike just ended. The Knights of Labor appear to be folly conscious of tho disastrous defeat they have sustained. Charles Walker, tho Belt-line conductor. who yesterday shot and killed James jicuowaii, a siriKer wno assaulted nim, was arraigned in court to-dav and held to await the result of the inquest. Tho president and another officer of the road were in oourt and offered to go on Walker's bond, stating that ho was justified in the shooting. The Brooklyn Tie-Up. Kew York, Feb. 6. The tie-up on the At lantic-avenue lines of Brooklyn to-day shows signs of meeting the samo fate as the lato tie-un on the surface roads in this citv. it was report ed to-day that many 01 the old hands had applied for and secured their old positions. Mr. Richardson had a conference with a committee 01 the strikers, this after noon, with no result. He announced that ho would onlv take the men back if they gave up tho Knights of Labor, and then only as individuals, and not in a body. As for the stable men. he would have none of them, as he already had a full complement of new men. The striking dnvers and conductors of the Richardson lines signed an acreement to-night to apply for re-employment as individuals on Mr. Richardson s terms and take their chances, the company retaining the new hands, but filling vacancies with tho old men. The stablemen will not bo taken back on any terms. The roads will resume operations to-morrow. CHICAGO OFFICIALS SUSPENDED. Police Inspector Bonfield and Captain Schaack Relieved of their Duties. Chicago, Feb. 6. Inspector Bonfield and Captain Schaack were to-night indefinitely suspended from office.
