ON TIIE SIDE OF THE CZAR
According to a Russian Princess, Her Country Is Not as Iad as Represented, Everything There Was German Until the Present Great Ruler Came to the Throne Nihilism Is of Foreign urijrin. A largo company assembled at the residence of Mr. and Mrs. T. L. Sewall last evening to hear Mrs. Scwall's guest, tho Princess Engalitcheff read a paper on "Tho Political Parties in Russia." The Princess is r. tall and handsome woman vith a face that at onco surest a intellectuality and sulture, a suggestion that is carried out by a well-shaped and well-poised head. Her paper made it clear that she was a Knssian of Russians in full sympathy with the Sclav party- She said that the Kte war "with Tnrkey wis a national wr.r and roused the patriotic spirit of tho peoplo to the highest pitch. She considered the present Kmperor'a unpopularity to come from the fact that he did not place an independent Schlavonic prince in tho Balkans, as the Russian hope is to take Constantinople and erect once more in that historic city the iioly Greek cross; that the nation had not forgotten and would not Boon forget the unfortunate treaty of Berlin. She said that the nation, in all its classes, is deeply interested in the Oriental question, to which the government has given no attention, having been blinded by English and derm an intrigue. ' Of the Germans fihe said they were first called into Russia by Peter the Great, and afterward, beginning with the Empress Catherine, were encouraged to como in great numbers. "They settled down." said the Princess, "and were free from military Fervice. Sober, industrious and thrifty, theso German colonists increased in wealth. Up to the present day thoy speak the language and retain tho customs of Germany, not marrying with their neighbors, but marrying ainons themselves. They have become prominent in tho land, and there is a great antipathy to them among Russians. Bismarck is not our friend. He has numerous spies among ns who know exactly "what is going on. We do not take it kindly that Germany shows such a particular interest in the Balkan provinces. The German shows a pecniiar trait. He docs not assimilate himself to the country in which he lives; ho never feels any love for the country that brings him success; he exhibits no gratitude. He is cold and impassive, wbilo the Russian is more like the French in temperament, and the Russian antipathy to tho German is increasing. Alexander II was more or less German in his personal tastes. his truest friend was a German, and under his reign German influence reached its height. Under Alexander III the reaction has come, and there is a general outcry against Germans. This feeling is encouraged by tho constant attacks upon Russia "by papers in Germany. "The term Nihilist was first used," said the Princess, to describe a policy which intended the destruction of kings. Nihilism did not originate in Russia; it came from the West. The first symptoms appeared under the'Emperor Nicholas, llerzen and Bakuni were its first apostles. All Europe is undermined by the revolutionary spirit. It is a sort of disease. Nihilists refuse to be called so; they call themselves Socialists, democrats, propagandists. In tho beginning no Jolitical intention was attached to it. t was an effort among stndeuts, men and women, for an independent life. This first nihilism is that which Tonrganefl has described with wonderful trnthfnlness in his novel of Father and Son.' To this followed, in 1S71, inspired by tho Commune in Paris, the nihilism of action. It began to propagate its ideas, but without attempts at murder or open revolt. This last degreo was obtained in 1S77-78. when they degenerta1 irr tnn.ilarAroniil tiirTfirictu flji-k?-T ing a fauaticism of self-sacrifice and courage which surprised not only the Western nations, but all civilized Russia. They represent, however, a vulgar materialism without any scientific basis. Baknni was a man of tremendous power, but ho has been felt more by revolutionists abroad than by those of his own country. Janichetfsky, who followed toim, has had great Influence among the student class. He has lived in Siberia for twenty years, yet has Von all tha honors of a martyr. "The Nihilists wish to abolish the government, religion, society, the family, and then create a better state of attairs. Yet Ihe vulgar realism of the student class is disgusting. Many women, as well as men, are preaching free lovo, and yet there are those among them ardent young women who lead irreproachable lives. Men and wonieu have married and immediately separated so that the dowry brought by the woman might go to the fund of the sect. They mix up with all classes of the people. Young men of high families go into factories to mix with the workmen and carry to them their views, nnd girls of education hav gone to cook in work-houses for a similar purpose, to get near to the people. These aro enthusiasts. Young men and young , women are won to the cause. When they get older they cool- down. They hegin to th.uk that before they ask for new reforms they had better profit by tho;o thoy already have. Tho Russian peasant is satisfied with things as they are. He clings to old customs, to his religion and looks upon the Czar as the head of his chui ch and of sacred character." She was of opinion that there would bo noble fruits come of civilization and progress in Russia in the future, bnt that the peoplo must first be made ready for them. Mr. W. P. Fish back, in the discussion that followed, -praised the lady's paper highly, while dissenting from her conservative views. "We feel a great sympathy for k a people laboring for a greater liberty," said Mr. Fishback. "Tho Russian government, by its conduct towards us duringthe war made a very strong lodgment in the hearts of the American people. Even our friends the French wero disposed to help the other side, but the sudden appearance of the Russian fleet in the harbor of New York sent a thrill of joy through every patriotic heart," In answer to a question the Princess said that peasant schools had been established in the villages for twelve years. It was expected that thore would be a rush of children to them, bui there had been no rush at all. Replying to a question of Mr. A. L. Mason tho lady said: "Tho Nihilists are not men with right ideas and good convictions. I am not going to mention Mr. Kennan, but not ono man has been foung among them who is over thirty i years old. They are not ripe, they do not know exactly what they want. .When asked what they wish, they say: Vo will see afterwards. 1 think when men fight it should be for a principle, and thov should know what thoy want after they succeed. Liberty cannot be given to us Russians as to other nations. We are not prepared for freedom. We have a liberal literature. People think Iwe cannot have xnc worKS or liaKtiri. wo can navo xnem in overy library. The country is not despotic, as Mr. Kennan wants to havo people believe. 1 think Tolstoi is quite a Nihilist, but everv ono who desires can Tead his books, liut wo Russians say ho is a crank." Remarks were also made by Mr. O. T. Morton, Mr. J. L. Griffiths, and others. DIFFERENCES EASILY ADJUSTED. Car-Bnilders Do Net Remain Out Lot:?, bat Go Back to Their Work at an Advance. The forty-seven non-union car-buildors of the Indianapolis Car and Manufacturing Company who went out on Wednesday came back yesterday morning to meet tho superintendent. George T. Anderson, and discuss their differences with him. Mr. Anderson listened to their demand, and paid them off at their own figure, di&chargt, ing them at tho same time. It was rather a surpriso to tho mon, but it paved tho way for a more satisfactory agreement for their re-exnpioymeut. The company had been p.iyiug each man 5. SO per car, the men working in gangs of three uod four. They demanded a -Vcent advance on Tuesday, wbieh was allowed, and Wednesday asked another advance of the tamo amount, making .;t per car. This Mr.
Anderson refused to give, and they quit work.
Of those engaged in this strike thirtyfour have been re-employed, at their own request, at a rato per hour, ranging about 20 cents, but some wero al lowed a few cents more. I he company reserved the right to employ only such men as it saw fit. and will eventually take hack all but a few. The men are not classed as skillod laborers, as a rule, though some such are employed. They were able to make on an average $2 per day. but occasionally f.i i f t rbuiiio wuiim mane c CThe car-builders have no union, hut formerly had. They seem now contented with the adjustment, and no further trouble is probable. The company has just secured additional trackage, and will increaso the number of working gangs from fourteen to sixteen. A large order forcars for the Hocking Valley is being filled.

These were placed in all sorts of places hung on the doors and chandelier, and were fouud on the tables. The dining-room was exquisite in its decoration, great branches of crab-apple blossoms being hung over the doors and mirrors, with liere and there flowers in heart designs tastefully arranged. The teatables were heart-shaped, and everywhere were caudles throwing a mellow light over a scene that was almost fairy-like. Tho favors were heart candies.

Councilman Tontz's Objections to the Xew Citizens' Street-Railroad Ordinance. The Council committee on railroads did not meot last night, as was the intention, to consider the street-railroad ordinance that was prepared by G. G. Tanner, of tho Board of Trade, and Eli Lilly, of the Commercial Club. The committee, though, will report, it is said, adversely ono week from fbnday night. "Tho ordinance is not what tho people want," said Councilman Yontz, chairman of tho railroad committee, to a reporter last night, "It does not provide for any specific restrictions. Tho contract that would be effected by its passage is one that would no doubt suit the company, while it might, and again it might not, help tho interests of tho city." "What is the principal objection to it!" he was asked. "Well, it provides for an extension of the charter with Jhe permission touso cable, electric or raulo power, and that would be a very bad franchise for the city to give. Thero is no provision as to how soon rapid transit can be in operation or ou what liues. The company, after its franchise is extended, according to tho terms of the ordinance, could operato its lines until its charter expires just as it is doing to-day, and tho city would havo mulo cars for the next tweutylive or thirty years. The present Council cannot afford to voto for any such ordinance until certain specified conditions aro set out. and then, and not until then, will this city get what it wants in tho way of rapid transit" Tin: peculiar combination, proportion and preparation, of Hood's Sarsaparilla makes this medicine different from others nnd superior to them all In actual curative power, fcold by all druggists.

WAR OF TIIE BALL-PLAYERS
Mr. Spalding Says theTwo BigLeague3 Are Cutting Each Other's Throats. V One or the Other Must Goto the Wall -Yesterday's Championship Contests Winners at - the Lafajette Shooting Tournament. - SPALDING TALKS AGAIN. lie Says Two Leagues Cannot Exist If They Wage War Upon One Another. New Yoiih. May 8. President A. G. Spalding, of the Chicago National League Base-ball Clnb, talked with a reporter this morning, in regard to the base-ball situation and the signs he read in the sky. Mr. Spalding said: "One league or the other must go to the wall; they cannot go on as they are now doing, each cutting tho other's throat. Tho public is being overdosed with base ball, or rather with the fight for patronage hetween tho two leagues. In view of the past history of their players, the Brotherhood clubs should draw far better than they do, for they contain many of the men who were most popular with tho crowds in days gone by. On the part of the National Leagne, I freely confess that wo are not drawing satisfactory crowds. If there were not an ' element of antagonism mau if est between the two leagues, both might, perhaps, prosper. There are enough people interested in the great national game to support both organizations handsomely. As the situation stauds. however, there is no money in it for anybody. The two opposing leagues are waging a war of extermination. It cannot last. One or tho other must give way." national league. Lively Spurt of Batting in the Sixth Inning Enables Chicago to Defeat Cincinnati. Chicago, May 8. The National League game Was well in hand for Cincinnati today up to the sixth inning, when Hutchinson started the ball rolling, and beforo the inning closed the Chicagos had pounded Viau for twelve hits, netting as many runs. Tho field work of tho Chicago team was miserable, and but for the hitting of the sixth inning, the game would havo had no features except errors.

The conference of League officials at New York Wednesday seems to have been called for tho purpose of taking steps to help Pittsburg out in some shape or another. It has hecn apparent for sometime past that that club could not survive a season of opposition unless the other members of the League came to the , rescue. What was done at yesterday's conference cannot, of course, be learned. Among other statements from New York comes one to the etlect that Mr. Brush has been in commnnication with the Pittsburg people, and that tho conference received dispatches from him asking that his case bo considered. Mr. Brush last night entered a Hat denial of these stories, and Mr. Schmidt eigmhcantly added that as long as tho present . condi tion of affairs continued in the base ball business, the owners of the late Indi anapolis club would not interest themselves in a League team. With . everybody losing money, there is an inducement at present to stay out of the business. Ir the Pitts burg club comes here it will evidently bo a transler of location, not of management. Thinks He Will Have a Club; 'Harry Smith says he is moetintr with much encouragement in his effort to secure stock for a Western Players' League team in this city. He thinks the new league will hold its meeting in this city within tho next two weeks, and be in running order by June. ' Comlskey Challenges Anson. Chicago, May 8. Captain Comiskey, of the Chicago Players' League club, issued a challenge, to-day, to Captain Anson, of tho Chicaco National Leacne club, oflerina to play the latter organization a series of games in October. The challenge insists that the losing team be debarred from any snare m me receipts. The League Will Help Pittsbur?. , New York, May 8. A morning paper has a talk with President Byrne, of Brooklyn. Ho says Pittsburg will stay just where it is. and will fight it out: so will Cleveland. It is intimated the Leazue will help Pitts- . burg rather than confess weakness in tho contest. j . f CRACK SHOTS AT LAFAYETTE. Second Day's Winners in the American As sociation's Tournament.

A Noticeable Work of Women Marked hy Sim ple Ceremonies in Song, Toem and Address. When it was first given o.ut, about a year ago, that a stock company of women were going to have a Propylanim a largo number of persons whose early da3s had been given to hard work, rather than to grubbing for Greek roots, wondered what the thing meant. A very few who were of r.n investi gating turn of mind consulted tho copious collection of words compiled hy tho patient and erudito Noah Web ster to discover that propylaium latinized from the Greek (meaning "before a gate7') was a court or vestibule betoro a , building, especially the entrance to such a court or vestibule. Strictly, it is the" en trance to a temple or sacred inclosure. it was used to denote, generally, the entrance tothe Acropolis of Athens, which was com pleted in the time of Pericles, 453 u. c As the name began to appear in thenewspapers with great frequency, it began to dawn upon everybody that there was something in it; that it had a significance beyond that bestowed upon it by the lexicon; that it meant the entrance to a higher cult ure for women in this city by way of 'a building all their own. in which no horrid man should have any part. This build inc. west of Pennsylvania street, on North, aud fronting tho Institution for tho lsiind, is to be completed in tive months. Tho lavinir of the corner-stone took place yesterday afternoon at 4 o'clock, and was an event long to be remembered in the His tory of this city. Tho following articles were placed in tho copper box which was deposited in tho stone; Report of tho twentv-flrst anniversary of Sorosis. Copy of Woman's Cycle of March 20, 1890. Woman's Journal of April, 1800. Register of Association of Colleffiato Alumhx for 1839-90. Programme of twenty-two women's clubs of Indiana, four of which are of this city. Catalogue of art exhibit.

In concluding her remarks, she said: "We plant this stono in tho fond hopo that tho structure which it marks shall bo the homo of that tolerance which makes all souls feel themselves freo in its presence. Only in such freedom is spontaneity of "utterance possible; and ppontaneity of A. A . I " !'A 1 u iterance is a conuiuon oi spiritual growth; it is equally essential to the growth of sympathy and to the existence of wit. Shall not this be tho homo of that spiritual hospitality which, by welcoming one's best, makes one capable of this best? Shall this not be tho home of that sweet oldfashioned charity which vaunteth not itself and is kind? Shall this not be the tilting ground of intellects? the trystinir place of souls? the dispensary of sympathy? the exchange of friendly counsels?. Shall this building not bo the prompter of enlarged sociabilities? Shall it not make an opportunity for nobler hospitalities than we have hitherto known? - Mrs. Sewall then spread tho mortar, and the stono was set. Mrs. Amelia H. Wells gave tho invocation, and the ceremony was over. The officers and directors of the Propylxnm Company are: President May Wright Sewall. Vice-president Margaret D. Chlelett. Secretary Carrie F.

V Mrs. Janes's Relative for Whom She Has Been Earnestly Seeking Reveals His Whereabouts. Chief Splann has been in search of a man for several days who is connected with a story not devoid of romance. His namo is J. L. Janes, and he has latoly lived at Portland, Ore. He formerly lived at Kidgevillo, this State, and years ago left for Alaska, in company with a cousin, to seek their fort unes. They were successful, and the cousin accumulated $30,000 in the mines. He was seized with illness, and on his death-bed expressed a wish that $10,000 of this money should be given to the widow of his brother, William, who had died since he left. After his death J. I. Janes, to whom the re6t of the fortune was bequeathed, started for his old homo to de liver to the widow her share of tho monev He arrived in Kidgevillo only to find that she had left that very day for this city, in order to make her home with a daugh ter. Mrs. Mary ahaiier, of otj South Ala bama street. Mr. Janes related to her friends tho object of his visit, aud then came on to Indianapolis, but for some rea son dtd not find her. Tho friends had written in the meantime to Mrs. Janes. who was overjoyed at tho prospect, but so disappointed at not meeting the bearer of her good luck that sho appealed to Chief Splann to help her find him. She is old. docrenit and poor, and the money has a great meaning xo nor. ane may now take a renewod hope, for Janes has been found in llichmond. He went there on Annl 1. and told much the same story Mrs. Junes does about his operations up in Winnepeg nnd Alaska. Since going to Kichmond he has made several excursions, savins ho had been up in the northern part of tho county. from which place ho went to the far north thirty-seven yoars ago. He has also been in Kidgeville, where he said he found his brother, the husband of Lucinda. dead. Yesterday ho went to Winchester, saving ho was going to union City, and would bo back in Kichmond next week. Accused of Arson and Robbery. Officer Klingcnsmith yesterday arrested William McGill and William Abony, accused of setting fire to the house of James Gossutt in Jamestown, on tho edge of Boono county. In company with Hale Covey, theso two were detected in a robbery atone of tho freight depots in the cit3 and aro to bo tried also on that charge.
