There was the regular" ticket, with Victor M. Backus leading it for president, the "bustler"' ticket, at the ton of which the same of William A. Peeile, jr., was placed lor the same office. Alexander C Ayres asked to bo honored as president en the top rail of the "Winners' " ticket, and John W.

THEY WANT AN EXTENSION

Broad Ripplo Company Ask3 the Board of Works to Extend Its Franchise. Esferrtd to ths City Attorney for an Opinion Yhat Dr. Light Has to Say Robert Ken-' niczton Satisfied Ellis Allowed. At the beginning of yesterday morning's session of the Board of Publio Works a communication was handed the board by Clerk Parker from the Broad Ripple Rapidtransit Company. The board is very much averse to readiug long communications, but this one was gone throush. It was as follows: The Ir.iJanapolls and Broad Ripple Rapidtrantt Company (under the terms and provisions of the charter already g rantsd by said Hoard of Puollo Works) would respectfully request that jour honorable borird would, by the powers rawerred to you In said charter, extend our time for tte completion of said road within the city 11ml up to and until ths x Erst day of September, 1 802. And we wr rid ask that you name any conditions that you v ould Impose as a preliminary to the extension or time requested. In support of our request for an extension of time for the completion of oar road to Broad Klpple. I simply ueslre to say that after your grant of a franchise we made a contract with the Edison Electric Company; ome difficulties arose and we avoided the contract. The said company shipped material here and bejranto work. Without any fault of ours they stopped, broke the contract, and. In addition, filed suit against us as a corporation and Individuals for more than $100,000. Within three days from tLe filing of the suit we prepared our answers, and within eichtdays Jndge woods, of the United States Court, sustained the answer in every respect, and toe attorneys for the Edison company asked leave until the 1st of September to nie an amended comrlaint. Before said time they asked until Nov. . Before that time they asked until Jan. 1. Upon said date, not having asked for further time, and having failed to amend their complaint, their pleadings were thrown out of court. During this time they were holding their pretended claim over us we were powerless to use our franchise or to make a contract with another company all without our fault. We have worked hard. In good faith, in this matter, and have expended large mms of money. We have been forced to allow our time to expire without any fault of our own. We belive that it is no more than right and Just that your honorable body should rant the extension requested. We seek no notoriety In this matter, andwoppose no other interests. We do not care to make any arguments unless you request It. We should be glad that you send us in writing, at your earliest convenience, your wishes or determination in this matter. Very truly yours, William Bossox, President After reading it President Conduitt expressed the opinion that the Broad Ripple company had no franchise in ths city. He said it had failed to perform its contract, and the franchise was, therefore, forfeited. Mr. Scherrer said he was laboring nnder the same impression, lie didn't believe the Broad Kipple company had any franchise, now that the time forcomploting tho road had expired. Mr. Defrees said there was no charter to extend; that the failure of the company to keep its contraot left it without any rights in the city whatever. It would havo to come in like any other corporation, and tile a fresh petition for a franchise. The communication was, however, referred to City Attorney Bailey for an opinion as to whether or not the franchise is still in force, and could be extended. Dr. Cal Light, secretary of the old company, was seen bya Journal reporter yesterday afternoon. At that time he was in close confereneo with a prominent realestate man. He said that if tho franchise could be revived or a new one granted sailicient capital would be forthcoming to build and equip the road and that bond would be furnished the city for faithfnl performance of contract. In answer to a question. Dr. Light said the Detroit people had not bought any of the rights of the Broad Hippie company, and that it was not the latter a intention to get its franchise revived in order to peddla it out to anybody. The only connection the Detroit people would have with the deal, if any, would be to construct the road. The Broad Kipple company does not wish to change its route in the city from that named in its former contract. Tho road will be built over Bellefontame, Cherry, East, New York and Delaware streets." "Have you still got a right of way in the conntyt" Dr. Light was asked. "Yes," said he, "we have a twenty-foot right of way along the Monon road from Broad Kipple to the eity. If we can get our franchise revived, the money will be raised and the road built." A number of local capitalist, not interested before, are now figuring on the enterprise. Itobert Kennlngton's Money. Robert Kennington yesterday morning asked the Board of Pnbho Works to pay the city's portion of the Coborn street improvement, amounting to $1,033. He was 'told that the city was prohibited from paying the money on the order of Norton & MoFee, attorneys for nail & Harlan. A short time later, however, he appeared bearing an order from Norton & McFee stating that he had paid all demands, and the embargo could be lifted. The board retained S'jti in cash and (9 in bonds, but paid the balance. Mr. Kennington then asked again for an extension of time on his Pearl-street contract. He said he was tbeatened with lawsuits by the propertyowners. This was poor argument, the board saying it didn't want to assume the burden of the responsibility. The time was not extended. Bills and Estimates Allowed. The following estimates were yesterday allowed by tho Board of Publio Works: Tor paving Meridian street, from Palmer to a point north of the Belt road: Total length, 3,210 feet; total coat, :?13.S2S.8X: averace cost per lineal foot on each side, $4.30; city's portion. $1,304.74.

Tho various funds at the disposal of the board were drawn upon as follows: Bills approved Jan. 4, streets and alleys, 6,770; bills approved Jan. 0, streets and alleys. $7.91 8. W; city's garbage and dump, SI 50; advertising and printing, S34.S0; streets and alleys, &,U0.C& Street-Car Franchise Next. The Board of Secret Works held ono of those awful executive sessions Thursday night. As the doors were locked and barred it was impossible to ascertain what w.is being done. Now that the water contract is disposed of, it may be that tho board has turned its attention to a new franchise for the Citizens' company. Wants Ills Money. Mr. Charles Fist: came before the Board of Publio Works yesterday morning to ask for a claim of S?(30 due him from the opening of Mill street. Some of Mr. Fisk's property was condemned. He was informed that the money would be forthcoming loon. Franchise Committee. A meeting of the committee on franchises will be called soon by Chairman P. J. Ryan to consider the water contract. Mr. Ryan expects citizens interested to make known their views or objections to tho contract. Alabama-Street Itoulevard. Mr. E. B. Martindale had a private consultation with the Board of Publio Works yesterday regarding the Alabama-street boulevard scheme. Nothing could be learned of tho outcome. t Wants a Type-Wrlrer. City Kngiueer Mansfield yesterday asked tUo Board of Publio Works for a typewriter. He says there is great need for one in his department. It will require $70 to make tho purchase.

Laucke for planking the west sidewalk of the viaduct. It is for C0O. Property-owners on Tennessee street. north of Seventh street, have asked the Board of Publio Works for water mains before any improvement is made. KOT A FAD. That Is What Dr. Wcodbnrn Says of the University Extension His Lecture, Dr. Wood burn introduced the work of the new year in university extension by giving his class a written test consisting of twenty questions. It is coming to be more and more evident all the time that those who took up this work with the expectation of its proving to be a snap will be sadly left. A fair-sized amount of good, honest, hard work will be required to gain a creditable position In it. While this fact may have a tendency to lessen the number who attempt to take this work, it certainly will inure to its benefit in the long run. Dr. Woodburn will certainly have the hearty anpport of all those really interested in the welfare of university extension in his efforts to prevent it from degenerating into a mere fad. The lecture, the seventh in tho course, w as on "Karly Political Parties; the Alien and Sedition Laws and the Fall of the Federalists, in lfcOO." The lecture was introduced by an extensive excursion into English politics. Absolutism ' in leadership is a prominent characteristic of practical English politics. It is, in fact, an absolute necessity. The principle of passive obedience to leaders is the basis of parliamentary control. Party government in the modern sense is a growth of less than two hundred years. Modern free government, with a ministry responsible to the people, whether of parliament or president, is coeval in Anglo-Saxon politics with the party system. The Whig and Tory in English politics had their origin in 1079. The Whig was progressive, the Tory conservative. The Whig loved to d scant on liberty and the love of mankind, the Tory on the mischiefs of sedition and the rihts of kinars. The divisions and characteristics of the English parties were seen in those of colonial America. Most Americans, however, were Whigs. In America there have never been but two ?artiea from the constitutional stand-point, he one has been styled the, party of political principles, the otherof political action. The issues between the parties were made up in the bank controversy and stated in the opinions of Hamilton and J s tier son on that occasion. And the parties thus formed, and each were clearly defined by the discussion of the principle of strict or liberal construction and the issues between France and England, have continued, under varying names, through our entire national existence. The Federalists, by the passage of the alien and sedition aots, had committed a breach of constitutional authority. They, in these acts, usurped powers which could not fairly be considered as implied; they assumed a jurisdiction over foreigners the general government did not possess: they merged the judicial power with the executive; they condemned a man without due process of law; tbey assumed a censorship over the press repucnant to the principles of republicanism. Tho unconstitutional acts of tho Federalists, together with dissensions within their own ranks, led to their overthrow in the campaign of 1800. Jeilerson, in his indictment of the Federalists, laid .down the nefarious doctrine whose child is nullification and grandchild secession. BASE-BALL TALK. Efforts Being Made to Get Indianapolis in the New Association Salary List. R. W. Maguire. J. W. Speas and Gun. Scbmelz, the committee appointed to formulate a plan for the new Western base-ball league, met yesterday afternoon at the Welling Hotel, Chicago. After the conference Mr. Speas said that the committee had decided to recommend two things for approval. One was that the new association shall be given a list of players to select from, and shall assign them to the different clubs composing the league. The other recommendation was that the gate receipts shall be divided equally between the home and visiting clubs. 45 per cent, to each club, and the remaining 10 per cent, to go the association. The committee will probably meet in Chicago within the next two weeks to form the league. It was rumored yesterday that Toledo and Indianapolis will join the league. If the former fails to do so Grand Rapids is ready to take its place. Milwaukee is now said to be knocking for admission to the new league, and will, no doubt, betaken in. The scramble between the lioch and Morten factions in Minneapolis fcr a place in the league is causing considerable gossip. Morton is said to lead, and will probably win on acconut of his backing. One of the magnates said the salary roll of each club in the new association will probably be 2,500 a month, or 17,500 for tho season. BAR ASSOCIATION BANQUETS. A Number of Toasts Are Responded To Judge Gresham and Others Absent The annual banquet of the Indianapolis Bar Association was held at the Denison House last night. Of the ISO covers laid only seven failed tos be upturned. The menu was in nine courses, after which came the speeches. They were as follows: "A Great Court," Judge Woods; "After the Code," John D.

Fishbsck and Ferdinand Winter, all down for toasts . were absent. Charles W. Smith, president of tho association, was the toastmaster. The tables were arranged in two long rows, extending the entire length of the dining-room. Ladies were a conspicuous portion of the audience. An orchestra discoursed musio throughout the evening. American Wheel-Works. There is some talk that the American Wheel-works Company will be taken out of the hands of a receiver soon. A proposition has been made to extend the time for the company to pay its debts. The payments are to be made in ten equal installments, the iirst to be made March 1,1892, and the last in IK'5. The business of the company is now very heavy. . A Sky-Scraper.

Amnmberof other new buildings are talked of. William Jackson 111. Mr. William Jackson, secretary of the Union Railway Company, is sick, yet no serious results are expected. He ia eightytwo years old.

THE "BRIBERY" DISCUSSED

And Settled to the Entire Satisfaction of the Board of Agriculture. The People, RoTTerer, Will CoHtinue to Talk About It To Be Brought to the Attention of the Grand Jury-The Wind-Up. The 8tate Board of AgTicultureyesterday took up the olleged bribery case and settled it to its entire satisfaction for the present President Boggs appointed E. II. Ped, C. B. Harris and Hiram Howland a committee to Investigate the charges against Mr. Lockhart The committee reported as follows, which was unanimously adopted: Your committee to whom was referred the newspaper charges affecting the integrity or K. M. f .rwlrl rt. n. meralwr of the board, after Investigating the same find that Mr. Loctbart was approached by persons nnsnown 10 mo committee, and offered the sum of $1,000, provided te (Ii. 21. Lockhsrt) should vote for the purchase of the Miller larm to be used for fair purposes by this board. We find thst a contract in writing had been entered Into by Mr. Lockhsrt and said unknown person, and we also find that said contraot baa been burned, as proTided in said contract, if said vote was not cast, as so agreed. W e also find that Mr. Lockhart, after being approached by this unknown person, Immediately notified several members of - this board that a stranger had approached him. and, by hi actions, so aroused his suspicions that he believed that he (the stranger) was endeavoring to approach him for the corrupt purpose of influencing his action as a membtfr of the State Hoard of Agriculture in the matter of the t election of the new fair grounds. And your committee further find that the several members of thi bosrd, to whom he (Lockhtrt) had spoken, advised him to go ahead and pursue the matter and find out definitely Just what proposition the man had to make to him, and for what purpose this proposition was made. We also find that the said $1,000 had been placed In the hands of persons unknown to this committee for delivery to paid Lockhart In case he fulfilled his part of the contract, and said $1,000 was returned to the person who made said contract with said Lockhart at the expiration of said contract, on the 7th day of January, 1602. ' Said Mr. Howland. last night: "An evening paper charges me with seconding a motion made by Mr. Maze, exonerating Mr. Jones from handling money corruptly. I seconded no such motion, for none was made. Where the reporter got it I cannot imagine, for it surely never came from any member of the board." Said a member of the board, yesterday: Tf the persons who have cast this odium on Mr. Jones knew him as well and as intimately as 1 do, they would think as I do, that he would sooner cut off his right hand than have a bribe placed in it." Ex-President Banks said to a reporter last night: Mr. Lockhart came to me and told all that bad happened, and I, together with three other gentlemen, told him to encourage the man, and we would back him up iii all that he did. I am willing to make affidavit to this, and so are the other gentlemen." Mr. banks also denied that Mr. Lockhart had said he didn't know who the party was who ottered the, bribe. What the gentleman did say was that he preferred not to tell who it was unless it was absolutely necessary to do so. Two members of the board declared, yesterday, that Mr. Jones had announced himself last September as beinti in favor of the Miller farm when it came to choosing a new fair sits. Continued one of them: "Time and again since then, and before the Miller farm was ever mentioned as a candidate for the site, he expressed himself similarly." The board did little other business, yesterday, aside from a trip to the old grounds and deciding npon what buildings it wished tupreserveand what to tear down. The floral ball, new stables and amphitheater will be saved. They are each built in 'sections, and will be taken down, removed to the new site. and put np again. The buildings that will have to be built complete are: Agricultural building, poultry, fine art hall, culinary department, woman's building and ..others of less importance. . . The board decided to offer a prize for the best landscape-gardener's design of a plat for the new grounds. The same will be done for the principal buildings. The exocutive committee will meet on the 15th of this month to attend to the moving of the buildings. The next meeting of the entire board will be on Feb. 9. Grand Jury After Them. Prosecuting Attorney Holtzman issued a subpoena for R. M. Lockhart yesterday noon, summoning him to appear before the grand jury, but it was not served, as Mr. Lockhart had gone home to Waterloo. It will be sent to him there and he will doubtless come here to testify before the board adjourns. Other members may be summoned to appear. Local Council of Women. In accordance with the instructions given them by the conference held on November 16, concerning the organization of a Local Council of Women in this city, the special committee appointed at that timehave prepared a report of that conference, and have drafted a constitution for the porposed council Copies of these documents havo been sent to every organization of women in the city known to the committee. It is the desire that these doenments be laid before every society of women, and therefore the secretary of any society who has not already received tbem is. cordially requested to send the name of her society and her own name and address to Mrs. May Wright Sewall, chairman of the special committee, No. S43 North . Pennsylvania street. The other members of this committee are Annie Ames Spruance, Hannah C. Haughey, Fannie A. Macbeth and Mary J. Jenckes. The second conferonce. at which the final organization of the council will be effected, is set for Monday, Feb. 1. The intervening month ailords ample time for every society to give due consideration to this matter. As forty-nine organizations were represented by delegates at the first conference, there is reason to believe that the Local Council of Women of Indianapolis will from the outset represent the strojitfest organized influence of women. No distinction of creed or object is made by the council, but all organizations are entiled to equal representation and will receive an equal welcome. A Decree Granted. Judgo Walker yesterday gave Lnella Harlow a decree of divorce from Albert Harlow on the ground of failure to provide. It was shown that the defendant is in prison, under the name of Albert Tinder, for conviction of a crime, A Harm Weather Wish. It was Sidney Smith who expressed a desire to take off bis llesh and sit in his bones. That was midsummer. Ko reason For such wishing At this season. How cold It is! Get underwear!
