NO BIDS FOE STATE BONDS

Eastern Bankers Decline the Invitation of Indiana's Finance Board, On the Ground that Thcj Are Able to Place All Their Available Funds at a Much Better Rate than the 3 fer CeHt. Offered. For some time past the State has been offeriuR by advertisement bonds to the amount of taO.OCO, payable in ten years aud bearing 3 per cent, interest. The object was to redeem and fund a like amount of outstanding bonds now held in New York and drawing 8Lj per cent, interest. The loan was authorized by the last Legislature, the rate of interest being fixed at 3 per cent, in order to effect a saving of onehalf of 1 per cent, by the funding operation. The time for receiving scaled proposals for the purchase of the bonds expired yesterday at 11 o'clock a. m. and no bids were received. State Treasurer Lemcke was asked if ho was disappointed. "Somewhat disappointed," was the reply, "but not at all surprised. I hardly expected to get any bids." Being asked if he attributed it to the failing credit of the State or to the increase of tho public debt, he answered: "Not at all. The credit of the State is as good as it ever was. at least, it has not been injured yet to any appreciable extent. I attribute the failure to receive auy bids for this loan1 entirely to tho fact that the rate of interest fixed o per cent. was too low to induce bids. There is no money to loan now at S per cent. In fact, 3 per cent, is abnormally low, and 1 doubt if the State will get any more money at that rate for a long time. We thought of advertising this loan last spring, hut Eastern hankers said it was useless to do so at that time, and we postponed it. The conditions are no better now, and I had little or no hope of getting the money at 3 per cent. Yesterday's mail brought mo the following letter: Gekman Savings Bank, New York, Aug. VJ, 1890. $ Hon. J. A. Lerocke, Treasurer of State of Indiana, Indlanaj oils: Dear Pir Your esteemed favor of the lfcthinst.. Informing us that your financial board islnvitlng hid for a 3 per cent, loan for the purpose of funding the 32 per cent, outstanding loan of COO,000, of which this bank holds $100,000, has heen laid before our committee on nuance. The same, however, respectfully decline to hand in any bid. inasmuch as the bank can place all its uninvested funds at 5 per cent. Interest on loand against Government or fctate Banks. Besides, lately, several institutions, which are less restricted in their investments than the New York Ravines Bank?, have put some of their old holding of State bonds on the market, and they can be bought at a price yielding more than the abnormally low rule of il per rent, interest. It seems that the present time isfctlll more unfavorable for carrying out your funding project than It was lu May last. Yours very respectfully, G. Hose, Second Vice-president. "The German Savings Bank of New York, which writes this letter, already holds a largo amount of Indiana bonds, aud knows the State's credit is good. But you see what they say abont the rate of interest, and thev sav the conditions for carrying out our funding project are more unfavorable now than they were in Mav last. That means the money market is closer, not so much capital seeking investment and no money to loan at 3 per cent." The result is that the State will have to continue paying oj per cent, on its outstanding bonds until such time as it can redeem them. They will be due March 1. 1805. Wants the Street Names Restored The meeting of the scientists here calls attention in an indirect way to the difficulty with which a stranger finds his way about the streets in the business center of the city. "The city did a rash thing," said a councilman last night, "when it dismantled all of the gas-lamps within the electriclight radius. The gas-lights are, of course, unnecessary, but the posts should have been left standing, with the names of the streets on them. Several of the scientists asked me at the depot to-day where the Capitol building was. It was easy enough to direct them three blocks north and one block west, but how much better to tell them the names of the intersecting streets. Then the stranger has a memorandum Jhat will be of use to him, no matter where he is." "You would leave the posts standing, then!" asked the reporter. 'Certainly I would. It is done In all other large cities. Thousands of inquiries are made on our streets daily for certain locations, many of which might be'saved if our lamp-posts were labeled. They are in the residence portion of the city, but wherever there is an electric-light there is nothing to show what the streets are. I think 1 6hall lay tho matter before Council before another year has passed." Amusement ' otes. "Roland Romaudo," Joseph D. Clifton's new romantio melodrama, was given its first presentation at the Park Theater, yesterday afternoon, and was repeated last night. Large audiences saw the performances. The play is a semi-sensational production, with the usual number of startling incidents, and evidently pleased those in attendance, if hearty applause can he taken as an indication of satisfaction. It will run the remainder of the week. "A Legal Wrong" will bo presented at the l'ark next week by George O. Morris's company. Cleveland's Minstrel Company, of nearly forty members, will give a performance at tho (irard Opera-house on Monday night. Willis P. Sweatman and Billy Rice, the two leading comedians of the organization, are famous as minstrel performers, and the troune is made up throughout of the best people in the business. "Siegimoto's troupe of imperial Japs," the acrobatic wonders of the stage, are also on the bill. - . ii ill II Fell at the Right Time. The shed at Clem fc Kasterday's grocery, corner of Massachusetts avenue and Delaware street, came down with a crash early yesterday morning. The thoroughfare at that hour is generally lined with people, but, fortunately, it was raining hard at the time, and the traveling public was availing itself of tho street-car lines rather than of the pavements, and no one was under the shed at the time. One of tho supports stood on the pavement just under which a sink had at one time been made. The heavy rain caused the support to sink into the ground, aud the shed, thus freed at ono side, fell to the pavement below. Superintendent "Wright's Bequest. Superintendent Wright, of the Central Hospital for the Insane, has diminished the number of patients in tho institution by bending some to the Richmond Hospital, and he desires such unfortunates as are now confined in tho jails ot the central and Southern territor3' to bo sent to the institution at Indianapolis at once. The recent removals make room for the class indicated, and he desires that uo further delay than is necessary 6hould be occasioned. Shrrldau Post Camp-Fire. Phil II. Sheridan Post. G. A. R., held a camp-tiro last evening. Comrade A. J. Smith, of Post 17, read an interesting paper on "Sheridan in the War," and the "only" Burgess Brown recited several of his most popular pieces. A feature of the entertainment was voting a tiiteb'-upholstared rock-iug-chair to the most popular lady present. Mrs. Johu A. M. Cox, having received tho highest number of votes, is the happy possessor of the prize. .... m -Want Llvr-I lih Mnrltct. The Kgitation in favor of a fish market in which only live fish shall.be sold is attracting much attention. It is said that the ilsh sold from local rivers aud ponds is often unlit to eat, and is tho cause ot much nickness. Many people who are lovers of lUn food refii!o to buy it because it is dead when ottered and likely not to b fresh. It , is thought Yery littLu expense wUl attend

the change, and if it is made unlawful to sell tish other than living ones, that the tish-dealers will readily adapt themselves to the new ordr of things. The subject receives special commendation from German-bom citizens, who were accustomed in the fatherland to buying tish in no other way. They have interested Councilman Ytuitz in the subject, and ho is expected to bring the matter before the City Council. . TO REPLACE THE STRIKERS.

A Car-Load of Jlen Taken East from Here Yesterdaj for the Yew York Central. . 4; Michael Welch, who is stopping at the Weddell House, yesterda3' succeeded W. J. Morgan as the New York Central agent to secure men for that railroad to tako the places of the strikers. Mr. Morgan started East on the Big Four with forty-seven men yesterday morning. This coach was placed immediately behind the engine, leaving the baggage cars between it and the regular coaches, and cutting off communication between them. -Some .of the men are reported to have 6aid they did not intend to go to work, but merely wanted a free ride to the East to see the country. A car of men. for the same road, also started yesterday from St. Louis. . In answer to the standing advertisement, about fifty applications were received by Mr. Welch yesterday, but not a fifth of them were employed, the object being to set only men of experience and who wee also well recommended. Two men who called happened to learn, while waiting, the road to which they would be sent, and they left at once, saying they would not work with "scabs." The progress of the strike Is being watched with interest here, by railroad men particularly. but there is no indication of its extending to this city. "Our grt'evances were all settled some time ago," said a Big Four conductor last night, "and we ar contented. We used to make $110 a month, and now we get $140. It took a long timo to geta settlement, and 1 thought for a while wo would have trouble, but it was all finally arranged to everybody's satisfaction." CULLISGS FROM THE COURTS. A Woman Who Is Determined that She ' Will ot Be Divorced. An appeal from a decision in a divorce case is one of the rarities which comes to the office of the t'crkof the Supreme Court, but a transcript from Starke county arrived yesterday and proved to be the appeal of Arrena Prettyman from a judgment of the Starke Circuit Court giving her husband a divorce. From the pleadings in the wise it appears that Wingate Prettyman and the defendant in the case below were married in 1873, he being quite an old man, possessed of considerable property, and she being a widow with several children. He says in tho complaint that soon after their marriage she began to abuse him, and in July, 1860, she informed him that she would do nothing moro for him, and he, being old and feeble, was compelled to leave his homo, whereupon "the sous and sons-in-law of the defendant took possession of the plaintiffs home." Mrs. Prettyman replies in a cross bill denying the allegations, and says that she and her husband lived happily till he wanted her to sign a deed conveying all their property to his grandchild, and when she refused "the plaintiff grew cross and would frequently leave home for days at a time, and ihi-dly abapdoped her altogether." The case has come up on its merits, and is accompanied by all the evidence taken in the trial. Arrested for Keeping a Vicious Dog. Warrants were issued yesterday for Mrs. Mary Shea, of 1C7 Huron street, for harboring a vicious and unlicensed dog, and the arrest was made by special officer David Bruce. The complaining witness is Mrs. Kate Looney, of No. 117 Huron, whose Von, aged eleven, was severely bitten iu-the small of the back by the dog. The hoy 6ays he was passing along the street when the dog sprang upon him and fastened his teeth in his back. Officer Brnco has been doing a good work in running down unlicensed dogs. Of tho 3,500 of this kind over half have been located and the owners compelled to take out licenses. Wants the Judgment Satisfied. R. R. Rouse brought suit yesterday against John Davis and the. town of naughvillo to satisfy a judgment of $80.00, which the plaintiff secured against Davis in December, 1S68. He alleges that when an execution was issued it was immediately returned, Davis claiming that he did not have property in excess of tho SC00 exemption allowed by law. Rouso says that the town board of Haughville owes Davis $720 for digging nine wells, and asks for an order from court to compel payment to the clerk of Marion county. Verj Little at Stake. A civil suit involving a box connected with a market stall, and- worth about 75 cents, was tried before a jury in 'Squire Alford's court, yesterday, being entitled Joachim Traugott V6. Osias Mcdias. A large number of witnesses wero examined, and the jury was taken to the markethouse to view the premises. A verdict in favor of the defendant was returned. Asks for S10,000 Damages. Thomas E. McRogers brought suit yesterday against the Indianapolis Car and Manufacturing Company for $10,000 damages. As an employes of the defendants, his duties were to carry melted iron from the furnace to tho molds. He claims that, through the neglect of his employers, one of his feet was severely burned some months ago. ..' Charged with Stealing Tools. Charles Cole, employed in tho Indianapolis wagou-works, was arrested yesterday by special Officer Perry Misnor, and slated for petit larceuy. The firm has been missing tools for some time, and yestorday evidence was secured which led to Colo's arrest. The Court Record. SUPERIOR COURT. New Suit Filed. Thomas E.

Will Make Their Charges Specific The Bricklayers' Union, No. 3,took actionlast night on the Gruelle resolution, adopted at the Labor day committee meeting. Sunday morning. They passed a resolution declaring that tho charges of political chicanery were not intended to apply to the committee as a whole, but only to certain members of the committee.

The trouble arose over the filing yesterday by the latter of a suit for divorce Colored Hod-Carriers Will Parade. The colored hod-carriers, who, it was eaid, had been persuaded by certain bricklayers not to participate in the parade, havo appointed a committer to prepare a formal denial for publication.

To the Editor of tho Indianapolis Journal: In a Milwaukee telegram in your issue of a few days ago was detailed, under the head of "A Fly Causes Horrible Agony to a Woman' how death was caused by 8 fly that had llown into tho noso of a Mrs. Beaty, "she having been literally eaten up by maggots," "and her attliction was a puzzle to the doctors," a description of the post-mortem examination being appended. In your issue of Feb. 2 you will find a similar condition described in an article contributed by myself. This article was amplified and incorporated in the recently issued State Board of Health report, the treatment for the condition being given, it 6imply being the occasional inhalation of chloroform, which kills the maggots. These screw-worms aro the product of the lucilia inacillaria, or blow-ily, which deposits its larvai ou mucus surfaces, generally when its victim is asleep. Cattle are frequent surlerers in this way. W, B. C. . Indianapolis, Aug. 21. General Bennett Seta Himself Right To the Editor of the Indianapolis Journal In the proceedings ot the recent National Encampment of the G. A. R., as published in the Boston Herald, I am reported as having made a speech in opposition to the service pension proposition, and my supposed speech given in full. I am in daily receipt of marked copies of that paper, and also of many letters from comrades, expressing surprise at my course. In order that I may not be misrepresented and my friends astonished by such a report, I aBk space in your valuable paper to say that, owing to illness, I was nnablo to go to Boston, and, of course, did not attend the encampment, and had I been there, instead of making the silly and illogical speech imputed to me, I should, to the best of my ability, have assisted comrades Alvin P. Hovey. of Indiana, and William H. Gibson, of Ohio, in their able, patriotic and successful advocacy of the service-pension cause. And 1 do not come under the charge made bv Past Commander-in-chief Burdette, when, iu the debate referred to, ho said: "It is tho strong, hearty, lusty, fullblooded men who are demanding a service pension.'7 lor I am neither, and already draw a pension, and got my arrearages, and am only advocating, what I believe to be justice to other and all comrades. As I have not yet soeu Governor Hovey's minority report, which was adopted by the encampment, published in vour paper, and as a very large majority of Indiana soldiers stand on the platlorm there laid down, I make it a part hereof, as follows: We demand the parage of a aervice pension blllFirt -Because such a bill was passed in behalf of the Holdicra of the revolution upon the urjrent recommendation of the immortal Washington. .SecondBecause such a bill was passed in behalf of the soldiers of the war of 1812-15. Third Becaiif-o such a bill was passed in behalf of soldlrrs of the Mexican and Indian wars. Fourth Because the Ciraud Army of the ltepubltn tetlartl for the paAre of uch a bill ut the National Encampment held at Columbus, 0., in 1889. Filth Because tho Grand Army of the Repub

lic declared for the passage of such a Mil at the Natioual Encampment held at Milwaukee, WU.r in 1889. Sixth Becauso the Grand Army postn of every loyal State and Territory of the Union have petitioned the present Congress for tho passage of such a measure. Seventh Because tho government, with her immense revenue, Is now amply able U pay inch penxious without hurt or injury to our nnaucial affair. y Eighth Because the payment of such pensions will relievo the present tlnauciai depression of the country and awaken a patriotism and prosperity such as no other means can bring forth. Ninth-Because the soldiers were paid for their services In a depreciated inoney. while the bondholders were paid lu money good as gold. Tenth Because only by the passage of such a measure can jusUce be done the saviors of our Republic. Eleventh Because 160 acres of laud have heretofore been promised every poldicr of the Union, and this promise has never been fulnlJed. .Twelfth Because this promise, with the promise of payment iu money good na gold, and the pensioning of all soldiers, has been :nitde from tho beginning of the war to its close jy tho orator, In the pulpit and the forum. Thirteenth Because tho United States is now the greatest country on the globe iu her financial ability and resources, and it is no time to assert that sho Is uuable to meet expeuditureS'which would not now be felt Fourteenth We declare that the simple taxation heretofore made on whisky and tobacco would bo more than Kutiicient now to pay every demand of a service pension. Fifteenth and Lastly Because no government can attord to violate, directly or indirectly, any promise that was made to men who havo sustained it, for the nation who would have brave defenders in tho future must deal justly with its defenders of the past.
