Praise for M ancle. Special to the IndlaLapolis Journal. Washington.

That is the kind of stuff men should be made of, and it makes a man prond of such citizenship. If the intelligent and patriotio "itizens in nil sections, of the country, who know that their banks are safe and honestly conducted, would band together in that fashion. it would improve the credit of the country, and put a stop to bank failures in . most instanoen. I should think a depositor would be ashamed to draw his money ont nuder such circumstances, simply to hoard It, and keep it from circulation." George II.

Special to the Inrttauauoii Journal. Elkhart, Ind., Aug. 7. The band instrument faotory of C G. Conn, Demooratio Congressman from this district, has been running for weeks on short time, eight hoars a day, with a greatly reduced force. To-day it was announced in bis own paper. Daily Truth, that the establishment would close down entirely for at least four weeks. The cairn given was the general financial stringency aud unsettled condition of business. Mr. Conn is conceded to conduct the roost extensive manufactory of its kind in - the world,- and its profits have been enormous for several years. For two years the business hns been conducted on the pro titsharing plan, the first year the employes reoeiving in dividends, aside from their regular wages, which were generally of a liberal nature, over f.OOO. Last year $14,000 iu dividends accrued to the employes, and everything was lovely. All this was under a Kepnbiican administration. Last fall, whtn Mr. Conn was a candidate for Congress, be marshaled his employes over two hundred in number on one of tbe main floors of his factory, and informed them that if they would stand by him, work for his election and scoured his? election he would guarantee them steady employment at better wages than ever. It is presumed that they stood by him. He was elected. For weeks his establishment has been running on short time, witbareduoed force, and now it has been closed down. His employes wonder what is the matter with his statement, made when he was a candidate for otlice. and on the strength of which they supported him. DUFFY'S FATAL, AIM.

Bpeclal to the Indianapolis J umaL Marion, Ind., Aug. 7. Unless there Is a rise in the price of wheat much of it in this county will be fed to bogs. It is much richer than corn, but is ground and soaked before it is fed. Among those who will use tor that purpose is Kocorder Kybolt, a young and progressive farmer. Wheat ground and mixed with corn in equal parts he declares to be the best feed that can be ued. He also mixes the wheat with boiled potatoes. Whoat gives the bone aud muscle while corn produces fat. Many other farmers will store tboir wheat and ue it for feed unless there is a mo in the price. Crops Almost Literally Darned Up. Bpee'al to Vi Indianapolis Joirnal. Pf.ru. ind , Aug. 7. The drought which has continued almost uninterruptedly throughout this county for the past ten weeks, with only a slight shower on Sunday morning, is assuming a serious phase and even should it be broken the conditions that now exist are reported so serious that the corn and other crops will be almost a total failure. Everything is caid to be almost literally bnrned up. The creeks and streams are dry so that even water in many cases is hard to get for the etock.' The Wabash river was never so low. and the trustees of the water department are considering the advisability of deepening the cbanuel le&dtntf to tbe rribs. feartng a famine should the conditions exist much longer. Aa far as corn is concerned it is practically a failure. SHAMELESS WATC OF GAS. Oil Men In Jay Countv Drill Weill, and then Let Tin tu Spout. Breda' to tneIn-liito:i r - in.. jIi.ukfton. Ind.. Aug. 7. Tbe gas company in this place has eutered suit at Fortland to compel! (ieo. W. Holes, an oil contractor, to close a gas well which has been open ever since tbe Cd of July. Tho well :s situated three miles sooth, and three

fourths of a mile west of Pennville. Jay county, and lets escape 7.000.1W cubic feet of gas each day. Citizens are indignant because of this useless waste of gas. and. &h the company of this place obtains its supply from near this field, it is feared tbe supply may beootneexbaosted. The theory ot the oil men is that after tho gas escapes tbe oil tlejd will be better producing and as a result make no etlort to stop escaping wells. The last Legislature passed a law to prohibit such wastefulness and the State has an inspector for this purpose. Although his attention has been called to the well twioe he has given no response, lilufltonians feel as if tho State inspector should take seeps to close this well or resign his position and let some one be appointed who will do his duty in this particular.

Ind., Aug. 7. -Curses loud and deep were heaped on tbe Indianapolis Sentinel, when its Sunday edition reached this city announcing the suspension of tbe Central National Hank of Greencastle. There was not a particle of foundation for the report, and its only effect was to add to the excitement to which the present financial flurry has given rise. Fortunately for the bunk, and the pnblic interests as well, the refutation of the false report reached the distant parts of the county in time to prevent a rnn on tbe bank, which is regarded as perfectly solvent. 11 ut tho contradiction by tho Sentinel showed that its managers do not hesitate to coin a lie in order to refute one. That paper, in its retraction, said that it bad been "imposed upon," leaving the inference that somebody at Greeucastle had telegraphed tbe false information from this ciU.H-hen the fact is. no such dispatch was ever eent from this city. It first appeared In the Crawfordsville Journal of Saturday, and the so-called "special" was "prigged" bodily from that paper. The Journal managers give two well-known citizens of Crawfordsville as their authority for tbe rumor, and the bank managers bere are determined to trace its authorship to the guilty parties Gaa lteit League.

FOUGHT OUT OF HIS CLASS

Eddie Piercp Easily Whipped by Georc Dixon at tbe Coney Island Arena. The Latter Showered Blows So Rapidly in the Third Round tlat the FavoritcFell and Went to bleep for Xesriy Ten Minutes. Coney Island, N. Y., Aug. 7. Never since the Conoy Island Athletic Club commenced its pugilistic exhibitions has such a tre mendous throng gathered at its commodious arena as tbe Pierce-Dixon bout at tracted here this evening. Every seat was occupied by the time tbe opening bout was put on. It is estimated that there were between 8,000 and 10.0C0 spectators in the building. James Corbett was given a great ovation when be walked into the building, accompanied by Manager Brady and sev eral other friends. They were shown to one of the private booths. The majority of the big betting men fanoied Dixon, and they were rather liberal in the odds they otlered. The tint bout was between Murphy and MoBride, and was for a purse of 1 1.000. of which $200 went to the loser. At 9 o'clock the men put up their b.vnds for the first round. Both showed great cleverness. especially at intighting. McBride appeared to have atritle the best of the hard hitting up to the fourth round, when he drew tirst blood. Murphy returned th compliment. almost immediately, by smashing Mack on the nose, and spreading it almost over his face. It was give and take until the tenth round, with McBride in the better condi tion. The referee awarded the tight to McBride. Promptly at 9:80 Tom O'Ronrke entered the ring, followed by George Dixon. He was given an ovation, but it was a mere nothing in comparison with the applause which greeted Lddio Fierce when be marcbecMlowri through tbe hall from bis dressing room and climbed upon the stage. It was a regular pandemonium, as there were fully twenty Pierce men present to one Dixon admirer. It was ten minutes to 10 o'clock when the men began their battle. Tbe purse was $0,500. of which the loser receives fOO. Dixon wore nothing but a white jockey strap and brown shoes, while Pierce wore blue trunks, a white belt aud dark canvas shoes. First Round Dixon led with his left after a little feinting and cautzht Pierce in the wind. He visited the same soot again. After spome cautious sparring, in which Dixon showed np to the best advantage. the men clinched on the ropes, but broke away of their own accord. Dixon then smashed Pierce with his left and again with bis right. A clinch followed, and Dixon showed be was a good hand at the game of intighting. and made Pierce break his bold. Dixou caught Pierce. again and the round ended. - Second Kound Pierce led lightly on Dixon s raoe. and then ducked a right-hand swing cleverly. A sharp rally followed, of "which Pieroe appeared to have the advan tage. Dixon endeavored to land his right, but was met and stopped very cleverly. Pierce appeared to havo earned contidence In himself as the round ended. Third Hound Dixon started in for busi ness. He sent in his left and drove Pierce to the ropes. Then followed such a volley of rights and lefts tbat Pierce must have thought there was a shower of hands and arms. First he became dazed, tried to recover and then went down in a heap. Struggling od before the time limit be was met with lightning-like jabs in the face and jaw that would havo settled a bigger and stronger man than Pierce.- He sank to the iloor and was counted cut. It took nearly ten minutes for him to regain eonciousness. Pierce was clearly outclassed. PATRICK 0'DU.NELi8 WOE. Tiiedto Eject His Son-in-Taw and Landed Behind the Cars. There is an unhappy condition of affairs in the household of Patrick O'Donnell, at No. 20 West Maryland street. Last Toenday, Katie, the pretty daughter of Patrick, married a young man named William Turner, to whom tho prospective father-in-law had taken a violent antipathy. So great bad been tbe dislike of the old man against tbe young suitor tbat he and tbe daughter thought it best to loin hearts outside of the city. They did bo and pater O'Donnell's anger knew no bounds. A day or two ago the young couple re turned and boldly took up a residence with tbe old folks. Now Patrick says tbey shan't live in his bouse while his wife says they shall, and at intervals, yesterday, the neighborhood in tbe viciuity of the Q'Donnell home was kept agog over tbe brewirnr storm. Last night Patrick came down town, tilled himself to tbe rim with good fighting whisky and returned home about 11 o'clock, fully equipped to bounce bis odious son-in-law. He opened the mnsio by attacking Turner, who was imme diately reinforced by his younir wife. One of Pat's chance blows struck the daughter. and then the mother came to the rescue. For live minutes there was a row in which all hands participated, and which resulted in Patrick's beintr thrown violently out of tbe house. He started Jn search of a police oflicer. and. unluckily, met patrolmen Kichardson and btmtb. who went down to the scene of the dis turbance to investigate. The result of tbe officers' research was the arreat of Patrick on tho charge of assault and battery. He was locked up white hisson-in-iaw slept a triumphant sleep. GENERAL WEAT11ER IlULLKTIN.

What the limit of her speed is has not yet been discovered, and it may be that she will find nothing on the Grand Circuit line that oan go her clip. l'hojbe Wilkes was hardlv considered good enough to beat out the other speedy performers in the unfinished 2:13 trot, and the followers of Vic II. lost not a lew dollars in backing their opinion, it was expected thai; the rest over Sunday would improve the chances of the Blackbird mare, but she came sore and brought up the rear.in the concluding bests. Alvm made a great run in the fifth heat, but is still high in ilesh and fell between. This week the 5 per cent additional to all starters will be charged to money winners only, and it is expected that tbe fields will be larger. The. programme hs been cut somewhat, owing to the failure of many entries to till under tbe entrance-fee arrangement. This will make only four days of racing this week.
