Stirpes Store3 Distributed Among Charitable Institutions Armory Changes. Quartermaster-general Popo is engaged in drying out tho equipage used at Camp llovey, and tho State-house grounds have something of the appearance of a military camp in disorder, or a circus struck by lightning. There was a considerable amount of perishable stores left over, and these, under Colonel Pope's directions, vere distributed by Captain Will David to various charitable institutions in tho city, tho white and colored orphans' homes, the Friendly Inn aud the Home for the Friendless each coming in for a share in proportion to the number of their inmates. Colonel Pope has been conferring -with the State-house Commissioners in reference to extending tho tunnel on the north side of the State-house basement so that heavy ordnance can be hauled into the armory without dismantling the guns. At present it costs about 11 to get a piece of artillery into tho basement, and every detachable part has to be removed from the gun before it can be handled. With tho proposed improvement, artillery teams could be attached, aud the guns taken out on tbe run if necessary. Another project is to make an entrance to the basement on tho Mississippi-street side, which would be even more convenient, but it would involve the cutting of the wall -and the building of au arch on that side. The opening of a driveway atone or the other side of the points mentioned would be an undoubted convenience, as most of the heavy material used by the State is stored in that part of the building. Ileside that portion used for engineer Cain's well-kept quarters, which include the heating, ventilating, electric and elevator apparatus, much of the stationery and printed matter is kept in tho basement, and a repair-shop has recently been added to tho armory department. Articles of Association. Articles of association were filed with the Secretary of State, yesterday, by the Goshen Manufacturing Company, which proposes to make carpet-sweepers, with a capital stock of 20,000.

EVENTS AT PABK AND CAMP

Children's Exercises at Bethany Draw . There a Large Crowd of Visitors. The Demorest Tiize Medal Contests Services in Acton's Woods Marked by Great Power in Bible Beading, Songs and Sermons. BETHANY PARK. The Exercises Attract a Largo Crowd of Deeply Interested Visitors. Yesterday was a great day for Bethany Assembly. The sun rose bright and clear, and with a cool morning air nobody had reason to feel other than well and in the very best of spirits. Some of the campers possibly felt just a bit stiff after the first night out of doors, but all bad effects Soon disappeared, and about the grounds were scenes indicating refreshing freedom from caro and trouble. A few mischievous college students, who are tenting out, had taken advantage of tho "wee sma' hours'1 of the night to have some fun at the expense of their companions, and the uproar of the boisterous lads brought forth more than one white-robed slumberer from his downy conch to learn the cause and quell the disturbance. However, when morning's dawn broke over tho hill-tops, everything was resting serenely. Little was done in the fore part of the day, tho time being devoted to getting better settled in permanent quarters and the exchange of greetings. This last was one of the most pleasant features of the dav. However, with the arrival of the morning papers came to the assembly people the announcement of the death of President oolery, of Bethany Col lege, and this affected the spiritsof the president's acquaintances and friends and there were very many, for he seems to have been very popular among those who had known him at Bethany. His death leaves quite a number of vacancies in the programme, in which he had so prominent a part, to be filled by the management. People early iu the forenoon began to gather from all directions to attend tho exercises of the day. They came in a long line of buggies from all the surrounding conntry, and the trains brought down their loads of visitors. The morning train from the City carried a large crowd. From Jfloomington, Spencer. Paragon and Martinsville came a train of twenty full coaches, containing more than 2,000 people, of whom the greater part were children. By 10 o clock fully 3,500 pcoplo were on the grounds.. Many brought their own baskets hlled with eatables, and enjoyed their dinners picnic fashion under tho shade-trees, and everywhere the eye mefsuch iolly, laughing parties. The hotel provided for the remainder of tho hungry throng. All day long the lake was covered with boating parties, and it was not long before the juvenile portion of the multitude found its way to the bath-house, dmrtl the incessant splashing sound told the fact that many a youngster was tryin to excell his fellow in tho attempt to see who could dive deepest. The feature of this children's day, as it was called, were two contests, in the afternoon, for Deinorcst medals. The conditions attending the offer of these medals in the interest of the temperance canse, arc that the contestants shall bo minors, shall have temperance declamations, and that six deelaimers shall compete at a time. Ihero being twelve, ycsyrnlnv, prepared to speak, two contests were to be held, and two medals given. These medals are neat silver pendants, somewhat shield shaped, bearing the word "Prohibition.'' aud hanging from a pin is a scroll, carrying the inscription. "Demorest" The largo tabernacle was crowded when the performances began. Mrs. Tomllnson, of Martinsville, presided. The meeting was opened by music from an orchestra of Soven violins played by young girls of lesa than sixteen years of ago from tho Martinsville Christian Sunday-school. An invocation was ottered by Rev. .J. O. Cutts, of Michigan. The following were the speakers and their subjects: A Black Eye for Lager Beer," Leou Allmann, Indianapolis: "A Voico from the Poor-house," Fannie Weaver, Pittsboro; "The Countrv's Cruel Tyrant," Mary Davi?, Martinsville; "Tho Good Time's Coming," Emma Snyder, Martiflsville; "Pure Moral Suasion or Prohibition, Which Shall It Be!' May Greeson, Brooklyn; 'The Martyred Mother." Ratio Boyle, Martinsville. In the second contest the deelaimers were as follows: 'The Way We Deluded Onrselves," Grace Toner, Martinsville; "A Barrel of Whisky," Jessie Junkins, Pittsboro; "The Object of Prohibition," Dollio Cunningham, Martinsville; "The Legal Kiglit of the Kmn seller." Carl Stettinge, Pittsboro; "Two Pictures from Life." Alice Maxwell, Martinsville; "Tho Bugle Is Call ing," Mollio Miller, Martinsville. The judges of the first contest. Revs. A. C. Sinither, of Irvington, Henry R. Pritchard, of this city, and C. H. Strann. of Spencer, awarded one prize to Katie Boyle, of Martinsville. The judges of the second contest, J. O. Cutts, ot Michigan, T. J. Clark, of Vincenncs, and Prof. J. C. Black, of Logansport, awarded the other medal to Graeie Toner, of Martinsville. The points marked were articulation, voice, gesture, memory and general effect. Great satisfaction was expressed at tho result. Tho meeting closed with singing led bv tho venerable Love H. Jameson, of Indianapolis. Last night thero was a service consisting of a short sermon aud singing. Those who have attended tho assembly every year since it was first organized gave it unanimously as their opinion that yesterda3T was the most successful Children's day ever held on the ground, and that the largo attendance gives hijzh assurance of tho largest crowds ever known at tho park for the coming sessions. This morning tho first exercise will be a prayer-meeting at C:30 o'clock, led by A. C. Snuther, of Irvington. Ind. That of yesterday was conducted by Oliver Dale of this citv. This forenoon will be spent by the W. C. T; U. in a "School of Methods." in which the evangelistic, narcotic, children's work and franchise departments will be discussed. This afternoon the exercises will bo of considerable interest, of which tho first will be: Devotions led by Mrs. R. T, Brown. Indianapolis. After tin's hour an address by Mrs. Clara Hoffman, of Missouri, will bo delived. To-night the following readings will be given by Mrs. Lucia Julian Martin: ' Psalm, exxxix, "Spelling Down;" "No Sect in Heaven;" "The First Settler's Story:" "The Sabbath Bells;" "The Rising of 1770:" "Sleep's Half Way Doin's," "Jean Anderson, My Joy Jean." Notes-Xrom the Park. The Butler University cottage was furnished yesterday and will be ready for occupancy to-day, Prof. Scot Butler has charge of it. Tho Standard cottage, with a good library, is now open under care of R. U. Wagganer, of Cincinnati. Vice-president Amzi Atwator, of the State University, was on the grounds yesterday. Among the arrivals yesterday were Rev. IT. C. Brewer, Danvilfe; L. H. Jameson, Indianapolis; Henry R. Pritchard. J. O. Cutts, Michigan, T. J. Clark, Vinceuues, C. H. Straun. Spencer and J. W. Farrol, Harrisonville, Mo. CAMP ACTON. The Services Growing in Interest and the Attendance Thereat Increasing. The attendance at Camp Acton is greatly increasing from outside. Prominent laymen of the church arrived yesterday from Denver, Col., and Omaha, aud tho trains brought in moro people from neighboring towns than on any day yet. The attendance was also enlarged by friends visiting cottages from Chicago, Louisville and Detroit. Tho regular morning meetings were largely attended. Dr. Watson, of Florida, particularly interesting a large andienco with the best Bible reading, at 8 o'clock, that has ever been given on the grounds. The ettect of it on the audience was very marked. Expressions of pleasure wero upon every face, and a murmur of approbation on every lip. When the climax was reached in the reading and running comment, correlating the thought around the central point of t the reading, thanksgiving and praise burst from every part of the great tabernacle. It was the best effect of the power of the gospel upon listening, thoughtful hearts ever witnetsed in the camp.

There have been as great impulse and excitement during impassioned appeals, but nothing like it in power upon the thought, as well as emotions of this intelligent audience. It was a reading especially, marked by the correlation of Scripture quotations, logically and consecutively marshaled into line. These facts." said ono listener, "stand like a solid column from which no enemy can escape nor break through. There is nothing for reason or judgment to do in face of such power but surrender.' t , Tho interest in the meetings has steadily grown, day by day. Thi3 can be teen on every hand. Following the Bible reading. Rev. E. P. Brown preached at 10 A. m. Ha took the Lord's Prayer for his topic, and the exposition was one df exceeding clearness and directness. He is noted for his clear-cut ideas iu explaining and interpretation, a result of the training he received in newspaper work before he entered the tolnietry, Perhapji tho audience, after the wonderful Bible reading, was the bctterattakcue4 and more receptive; perhaps Mr. Brown hihiself felt still the power of this gospel upon him. Certaip it was that preacher and audience were in hearty sympathy with the topic, and the service closed with another most remarkable conversion, that of a young lady back In the audience, whose mother was in quiek earnest prayer for this result. Aud thus ended the second great meeting Of the forenoon. At 2 r. m after the song service by the camp choral union of moro than ono hundred voices, Mrs. L. O. Robinson, the evangelist, drew another very largo audience together. She took for her topic tho words of Jesus: "Go work to-day in my vineyard." She began by saying that tin to this time in the meetings the preaching bad been to the church for the higher life, aud how. that all had been so remarkably blessed and strengthened, it was time to go to work and save sinners. As illustrating tho necessity and value of the work in other department of life, she made a graphic review of the struggles of Stevenson, from the todling boy in the English coal mine to the making of the first locomotive engine by him, and of Latta struggling with poverty and necessity, fitting him by work for the production of the first successful lire engine. And so it is by struggles and work, she said, that men are fitted for Christ, and for saving others. The higher-life idea is a failure if it leaves one on Fisgah's height, wholly overlooking the sinner, and building two or three tabarnacles to live and shout in, but it does not.' "And now," said the lady, "let us gst down to the work cf eaviugpeople." It was a strong discourse, full of good sense, with which the audience was in full sympathy. The young people's meeting, in the evening, at 6:45 o'clock, led by Mr. Bitler. in the great tent, was also largely attended and a deep interest prevaded it. Mr. Potter, the noted Chicago lavinan, who is a prominent business man of that city, preached at night. He had notbeen talking ten minutes till it was plain that he had with him the immense audience tilling the tabernacle. During the days he is to spend at eamn he is sure to have great audieuces, Mr. Miller, the great singer, who always accompanies Mr Potter in his work, is also at tho camp. Their work last night is au assurance that thoso who fail to hear them this week will loso a great part of the feast. Mr. Potter has for some years been ono of the most successful lay workers of Chicago and the West.

Notes from the Camp. Ten cottage prayer-meetings w.ere held at 4:30 o'clock yesterday afternoon, and everybody seems to be at work. A late cottager moving to the camp found a bees' nest between the upper fioor and ceiling of her cottage, and. rinding no way to get at tho bees to dislodge them, poured chloroform through a hole in the lloor into the nest after they had all gathered in for the night, and thus dislodged them. The lake is foil to tho brim, and tho talk now is that it must be widened and improved for boating, as it can be mado nearly a quarter of a mile iu length. Wonderful interest is heard on all hands in the coming meetings of Francis Murphy and his eons when the camjvmeetiug is over. His return to Indianapolis has revived tho interest in his work, and he will havo great meetings when he goesdown toCamp. Acton. Thero is now talk of big trains from several points to theso meetings. One from, Chicago and ono from Decatur, 111., are being considered by his friends in those cities. Many excursions from various parts of ludiana and Ohio are also contemplated. Cnlver Park Assembly. Correfponnco of tho JnlUna;i)li Journal. Lake Maxixkuckhe, July III. Culver Park Assembly closed its first annual meeting this afternoon. It has been a decided success. Excursion trains brought in large crowds every day, and as many more came from the surrounding country by horse and wagon. Tho assembly has been the feature of northern Indiana for the last two weeks. Talmage and Sam Jones, in tin great tabernacle, ably assisted by Benj. Deering, and Excell, tho singer, have heM thelarge audieuces day and evening. During the last week Sain Jones has preached two and three times daily, with his usual power and directness, and his old-time peculiarities. The grounds aro beautifully situated on the lake, commanding a far reach of view, and affording every opportunity for boating, fishing and yachting. Many tents have dotted tho hiilsiae, while tho large buildings havo afforded ample accommodations for thoso who preferred more substantial lodgings. Is'o expense has been spared to mako the grounds adupted to the uses of such a gathering. Tho managers aro so much encouraged by this first venture that they aro arranging for still further improvements for next year. It is designed to build a large number of small cottages that may be rented by families lor the whole season. A large hotel is also in contemplation near the grounds, and increased steamboat facilities are promised for next j'ear. Tho whole enterprise owes its existence and success to tho liberality of tho Culver brothers, of St. Louis. They havo devoted their grounds, and have spent this year over 1.1,000 in improvements in tho way of buildings, grading, walks, driven wells and fountains. At night the assembly is beautifully lighted by hundreds of lamps, and from the lake it looks like a great city. It is designed to make the assembly m the future a summer resort of tho highest character, where, amid all tho beauties of nature, tired bodies may find rest, while the mind and sonl may be constantly fed by the best talent tho country affords. THE FIRST REQUISITION. Fort Wayne Is Moderate in Its Demands for School-Books Published by Becktold. The first requisition for school-books made upon tho contractors through the Superintendent of Public Instruction, Mr. La Follette, under tho now law, was received by that oliicial yesterday. It is drawn by George W. Fonts, county school superintendent of Allen county, and states that the supply is intended lor the city schools of Fort AVayne. The requisition calls for 1,000 first, 610 second, 700 third. 610 fourth and S0 fifth readers, 1,315 elementary and l.Oia complete arithmetics, 725 elementary and t4.a complete geographies. As this requisition is drawn at the Stato headquarters of the Becktold organization, and by an officer in sympathy with its character, it may a fiord some insight into the policy of the school-book contractors. The amount of books drawn for is manifestly inadequate to supply the Fort Wayne schools, the last enumeration of that city showing .11,003 school children, and the books drawn for being insufficient to equip the fifth part of that number. It is doubtless the programme of the contractors to go slowly at the outset, and until they feel themselves secure, Thero will probably be little compulsion for the present in forcing out all the books now in use. by ejectment for failure to procure tho new ones, ana the vise will be tightened gradually, but it will doubtless bo tightened all tho same, and tho grasp will not be relaxed until the last drop that can be secured under the coutract is squeezed out. The School Commissioners of this city hold a meeting to-night, and the matter of conductine purchases under the new law will probably come up for consideration. While the general sentiment of a majority of the board is undoubtedly unfavorable to the new law, it is not likely that there will be any further opposition to it, and its provisions will probaoly bo carried out nude r the recent rulings of the Attorney-general. "We believe." said one member of the board yesterday, "that the best way to have a bad law repealed is to enforce it thoroughly, and probably the quickest method of ridding onrselves of the burden of this miserable statute is to carry it out fully."

WHAT THE TARIFF HAS DONE Tho Free-Trade Purposes of Democracy LoDg Retarded the Country's Growth.

Under Protection Development of Resources Was Rapid and Remarkable Mr. Morris's Answer to Hr. Yoorhees's Speech. The lion. Isaac B. Morris, of Richmond, is an earnest student of everything that relates to the tariff. He was met by a Journal reporter, yesterday, and asked what he thousht of the Voorhees speech to tho Greene county people last week. That speech." he said, with much emphasis, "is a desperate assault on our protective system. Voorhees's attack is vicious. He appeals to the lowest passions of an'ignoraut Democracy, and attempt to prejudice our fanners and laboring men against our mai-nfactnring industries. It is pre-eminently free-trado speech, and puts the Senator in lin& with his party on the tariff question. If he intended it for a key-noto speech for the coming campaign wo will accept the issue he tenders. "Is the tariff a war tax?" "'o, sir. Tho system is as old as the government, and is in no senao a war tax. The internal revenue taxes are war taxes, and our people should be relieved of them as soon as possible; but the'tariff system is permanent, and was inaugurated with the government. The first act which laid the ground-work of the great 'American system' was signed G. Washington, on the 4th day of Julv. 17S9. The acta of 1804. 181G, ISM and l&W. developed it, and threw4its shield around all of our infant industries. In 1833 the Southern Democracy made war on the protection system, and the compromise act of 1SS3 was the result of that war. Here, in this act, is the first expression you find in the legislation of this country in favor of a tarilt for revenue only. 1 p that idea the Democratic party has adhered, and while in control of the government the Democratic politicians base it on this freo-trade theory from 1833 to 1800. In 18) the Bepublicun party declared in favor of a protective tariff in our platform, in the following language, to-wit: That while providing revenue for tho .support of the government by duties upon imports, souud policy requires the adjustment of those duties so as to encourage the development of the whole country, and we commend that policy of national exchanges which secures to the workiugmen liberal wages; to agriculture remunerating prices: to mechanics and manufacturers an adequate reward for their skill, labor and enterprise, and to the Nation commercial prosperity and independence.' So you se, the Republican party had. determined on restoring the. 'American system' of a protective tariff before the war, and would have done so on comiug into power if there had been no war. Senator Voorhees is mistaken in considering tariff a war tax. It is a permanent system of national economy, and will be maintained as loug as the Republican party continues in power." "What aro the advantages of the Amercan system of protection over the Rritish system of free trade in this country!" "If you will compare the growth and development of every interest in this country during the free-trade epoch, frbm lt&J to 1800, with the growth and development during the protection epoch, from 1800 to date, you will find that the American system of protection is tho true ecouomy of this Nation. Under free trade our national debt increased from $37,513.03, in m to t,842,287.88. in 1800. Under protection our national debt has decreased from $2,773.253.173.00, in 1800, to $l,G51,401,8yi.50, Jnne SO, 1S80. Under free trade in 1841 the government conld not negotiate a loan of 12,000.000 at 0 per cent, interest. Under protection in 1883 the government negotiated a loan of &J18,20l,oM at a per cent. Under free trade the balance of trade was against us, draining our country of coin to tbe amount of i7Q.C0O,000 between 181ft and 1S00. Under protection the balance of trade has been in our favor since 187t. bringing coin into this country to the amount of $1,025,000,000 up to 1880. The last year under free trade (1800) our exports were only 373.189,274; in 18SO they amounted to $28,840.85:1. At tho end of twenty -seven vears of free trade, the total valuation of our property amounted to only $10,15I.f10,0W. In 1880 it amounted to $43,042,000,000, and our next census will show onr national wealth to bo about $00,000,000,000. Under free trade from 1S"X) to 180O, we built but SO.G85 miles of railroads, while under protection, from 1S9) to 1880. we built 108.403 miles. Under free trade England charged us over $100 per ton for stocl rails; under protection the Camegies, whom Vorhees would hang, are supplying us with steel rails at $31 per ton the products of American labor. Under free trade Euglanrt charged us from $22 to $27 per ton for pigiron; under protection we have developed this industry to such an extent that we now have 581 furnaces iu this country, and their output of pig-iron for the first six months of 1889 amounted to 4,107,St. tons, which places us in the lead of all other 'countries, and v.e aro now supplying tho American peopla with pig-iron at f 18 to 21 per ton. under freo trade England charged us, from 18.VJ to 1800, $2 to $2.50 per barrel for salt. Under protection wo have developed about two hundred salt-works that aro supplying our people with salt at 0 cents a barrel at the works, and Wm. Burt, a prominent Democrat of Michigan, has organized a salt trust to keep tho price of salt from going lower; and yet Senator Voorhees says tho duty is added to the value of all domestic products and increases tho price to the amount of tho duty to the consumer of American products. The truth is that, under free trade, England controlled our markets and maintained high prices on all manufactured articles, whilo under protection competition between homo industries has cut down prices to such extent that our people are now being supplied with cheaper and better goods than ever before in the history of this country." "Voorhees says t hat a protective tariff is a heavy burden on farms, and that agricultural interests are languishing. How about this!" "The Senator is again mistaken. Our agricultural interests havo developed under protection as fast as our manufacturing interests. In 1800 our wheat crop only amounted to lU04.ie bushels. In 1887 it amounted to 4.7.),. 79,505 bushels. In 1800 onr corn crop only amounted to 838,72.742 bushels, while in 1887 it amounted to 1.754,801,535 bushels. In 1S00 our oats crop amounted Jo 172,048,185 bushels, while in 1887 it was 407,S58.9 bushels. In 1800 the cotton crop was only 4,000,770 bales, while in 1S87, 0,550.215 bales were obtained. In 1800 sugar plantations yielded 228,753 hogsheads, in 1885 they gave 231,290 hogsheads. InlSCO tho wool crop was only 88,000,000 pounds, in 1881 we produced S20.000.000 pounds. Our sugar interest is the only one that the protective system has failed to develop. We consumed in 18S5. 2,458.270.800 pounds of sugar. We produced the same year, 202,870,780 pounds, which is about onetwelfth of tho amount cousumed. Wo 5 aid, last year, $5S,000,OUO duty on sugar, here being no home competition, the duty in this case is added to the price aud is a tax on the consumer. It isttie heaviest duty paid on any one article by the American people. Being an article of universal consumption it is a heavy burden on our farmers and laboring men, and unless sugar can be manufactured in this country from sorghum or the sugar beet, sugar should be put on the free list along with cofi'ee and tea by the next Congress. Why did not Senator Voorhees denounce this sugar taxT" "What about the blankets that the Senator wraps the infant and old men in?" "Whj. sir, under free trade before 18C0 England charged us $15 a pair for fivepound blankets to wrap our babies in: now you can buy jnst as good a pair of fivepound blankets in any store in the country tor $5. Wool is a military necessity to our f overnment; without it we could not uniorm or give blankets to our army, aud it is a prime necessity to our people; without it they cannot exist in this climate asleep or awake. The first thing done in tbe morning by ever man. woman and child in this nation is to clothe themselves in woolen garments, and tho last thing they do at night is to cover themselves with woolen blankets. Food and woolen clothing are the two great prime necessities of this Nation, and they should be produced in sufficient quantities to supply our people, no matter what the cost may be. We should not allow ourselves to become dependent on any other country for food and Uohing. By means of our protective system we nave increased our number of sheep

from 22,471,273 in 1SC0 to 45.000,000, with an annual duty of from $3,000,000 to 5.900,000, They now whiten the hillsides of every Northern State, and are increasing so rapidly that our supply of wool will soon equal the demand. This is the tax that Senator Voorhees complains of so loudly. He would slauchter these flocks, which have required fifty years of careful feeding to develop, by putting wool on the free list and retain tho $r8,(XX),O0O of tax on sugar. With these views. Senator Voorhees does not represent tho people of Indiana, and should not be returned to the Senate again." ? ; A Deputy Marshal In a lUffe. L. J. Ofi'utt. a Democratic deputy United States marshal at Eushville during tho last election, was making considerable, commotion yesterday in Marshal Dnnlaps office about pay which he claims is due him from the government. He worked three days at Rushville, and was informed by Democrats there that his pay would come through the Indianapolis oflice. Marshal Dunlap read the law to him yesterday, which provides no pay for deputies, except in towns of 20,000 inhabitants and more. Rushville has about 3.800 people. Offutt left the office in a rage, swearing vengeance on the Knshviile Democracy, and when last seen he was hunting for ex-Marshal Hawkins.
