Recommendations Made to the School Board Last Xight. Superintenaent Joues's Salary Will De Raised Scholarships for Teachers Air. Vouuejrut'a Resignation. The election of superintendent of the public schools, superintendent of buildings and grounds and librarian, was the special order before the School Hoard last night. There was no opposition to any of the pres ent incumbents and all of them were unani mously re-elected. Commissioner Russe moved that the committee on appointment of teachers and salaries be asked to recom mend an increase in the salary' of Superintendent Jones, to begin with the next school year. It was proposed to raise his salary to $3,500 per annum. The proposed increase or salary is made on account of the work of Superintendent Jones during his incumbency. The school commissioners believe the degree of excellence attained by the schools is. In a large measure, due to the efficient management by the superintendent and that he is entitled to the Increase. J. S. Cruse, from whom the School Board has purchased a site for a school building at Reed and John streets, sent a communication to the board agreeing to deduct $230 from the contract price in consideration of the board granting seven feet off the south side of the property for alley purposes. Hy the terms of sale to the board, Cruse agreed to secure the vacation of a north and south alley extending through the property. After the sale, objection was made to the vacation of this alley unless another running east and west, was opened along the south line of the property. The property owners acre 3d to give five feet for this alley If Cruse would secure from the School Board seven feet for the same purpose. Commissioners Martlndale and Scott at first objected to the amount offered by Mr. Cruse as being insufficient, but afterwards withdrew their objection and the board agreed to allow the vacation. George Merritt, trustee of the Gregg fund, reported to the board that the fund at present amounted to $22,129.65, and that the annual Income from it amounted to about $1,400. He recommended that the Income from this fund be appropriated to provide annual scholarships for two teachers of the public schools, the scholarships to entitle the holders to one year's tuition in some school for the advancment of school work. The trustee recommended thatJ the recipients of these scholarships be required to contract with the School Board to return to 'this city, after their one year's course, and again enter the schools here as teachers for a term of at least five years. Messrs. Vonnegut and Coffin, of the text book committee, recommended the adoption of Collar & Daniels's Beginners' Latin Book at $1.12; Allen & Greenough's Latin Grammar at $1.20; Wentworth's lil?h School Algebra at $1.10. Commissioner Galvin submitted a minority report in favor of Harkness's Standard Iatin Grammar. Harkness's Easy Latin Method and Miller's High School Algebra. On the question of a change in the music books, the committee believed a change should be made but was not prepared to make any recommendation and was granted further time in which to report. The committee recommended Kellogg & Reed's Word Building for -supplementary use In the High School. The changes will come up for consideration at the first meeting in May. The treasurer's report for the month of March showed a balance, in the treasury of $03,009.22. Warrants were drawn durinsr the month as follows: Special fund, $5,313.46; library fund. $1,831.63; manual training school fund. $2,931.73; library building fund, $C90; tuition fund. $11,434.97; total, $32,236.79. The resolutions adopted by the trustees of Woodruff Place in regard to the arrangements for admitting the children of residents of Woodruff Place to the Indianapolis schools was referred to the finance committee without reading. The resignation of Clemens Vonnegut as school commissioner, to take effect in June, was received. The resignation was accepted and an election will be held in this, district at the same time of the elections In the other districts where commissioners are to be elected. , , . The resignation of C. P. Wilson from the manual training department and the appointment of R. S. Mathews in his stead was reported and confirmed. The resignation of Fred Butler, as janitor of the Library building, was received and Loula Brinkman was appointed in hi3 stead. THE COMING HANK CASE. Theodore P. Ilaiisliey Will Bo Put on Trial Tuesday. The final preparations for the great bank cases are being made, the legal forces are getting themselves in battle array, and on Tuesday the anxiously awaited trials will begin in the federal court before Judge Baker and a jury'- Such 13 the interest in there cases that the court room will scarcely be adequate to accommodate half the people who wish to be present. The first case to be called Is that of Theodore P. Haughey, and, from present Indications, his trial will occupy from three to four weeks at least. The government's attorneys have a mass of evidence, and Messrs. Duncan and Smith. Mr. Haughey's lawyers, hae not been idle these past few weeks, so they, too, will be ready for a hard fight for their aged client. District Attorney Burke, his assistant, Edwin Corr, John W. Kern, who is specially engaged in aiding the prosecution, and Frank M. Hayes, the government bank expert, are at work every day and night finishing the work of shaping up for thee, the most notable cases of recent years in the federal court of this district Afcer the case against Theodore P. Haughey has been disposed of Schuyler C. liaiuhey will be called for trial. The government Is ready, or will be by Tuesday, to go right ahead with tnls second case should it be necessary. There is no indication at present that the defense will ask a further continuance, though there has been a rumor to that effect. It Is doubtful If Judge Baker would consent to a longer delay, as he has arranged everything for a long siege with the?e trials. An attorney who was anxious to have a big patent case set for hearing in the early summer was informed by Judsje Baker yesterday that it would be Impossible to take the suit up for several months, as he expected to be occupied, with the bank cases until midsummer. Still, as the Judge remarked yesterday, something may intervene to shorten the trial?, arvi it might not prove as long a siee as was prenerally anticipated. In addition to the regular panel of thirty jurors, an extra one of forty has been summoned, making seventy In. all from whom to select the jurors to try these cases. Of course, a new jury will be necessary for each case. If the suits were In the State courts and the jurymen had to come from some one county it would not be quite so easy a matter to secure them. Where the entire State can be drawn upon, however, as in the present cases, the problem becomes compartively an easy one. Following Schuyler C. Haughey's trial the cases will be called as follows: Francis A. Collin. Perclval B. Coffin. Albert S. Reed, Edwin E. Rexford and Robert B. F. Petrce. There are many predictions that the cases against the two last-named men will never come to trial. nnlldliifc Permit. Building permits were issued yesterday as follows: M. E. Brlggs. addition, Dol North Mississippi street, $300. E. D. Lucas, frame house, 50 Jones street, $S30. Harriet D. Crooter, repairs, 71? North Alabama street, $175. ArrnngrniealM for Fair "Week. Secretary Kennedy has called a meeting of the executive committee of the State Board of Agriculture for next Wednesday. There are many routine matters to be disposed of, supplies to be arranged for, special committees to be appolntc-d for fair work, etc. l Smith lioiidsiucii Ilelenneil. Yesterday the bondsmen of August C. Smith, formerly a tailor on Virginia avenue, who Is awaiting trial on a charge of emtezzllng !.. asked to be released from his tond and Smith was, accordingly, taken to the county jail. A Story of AVlfe Dmertlon. Yesterday afternoon Justice Hablch fined William Stevenson, residing at No. 300 South Pennsylvania street, $10 and costs on a
charge of wife desertion. Stevenson has four children, the oldest of whom is aged five years and the youngest, are twins, aged fifteen months. Last September Stevenson was thrown out of employment For several days he attempted to secure a situition, but was unsuccessful. Re then told his wife that he was going to look out for himself and that the only thing for her to do was to take her children and live with her parents, who reside close by. This she refused to do. and continued at home, while Stevenson remained away. Several months ago he secured employment at $12 a week. He gave $2.W to his wife, who barelvi managed to live along: with a little aid from her parents and friends. Yesterday Stevenson stated that he would return home and provide for his family. DEACONS AND ELDERS NAMED.
Work of the Evangelical Association at Its Conference Vesterday. Friday's session of the annual conference of the Indiana Evangelical Association was opened at 8:30 o'clock with a Scripture lesson by Bishop Bowman. After spending half an hour in prayer the minutes of Thursday's session were readi and adopted. It was announced that Rev. W. C. Braeckly. of South Bend, would preach in the evening. Rev. Mr. Martin, of the Methodist conference, and Rev. J. Lerch, treasurer of the Northwestern College and United Brethren Institute at Naperville, were introduced to the conference. At 10:30 o'clock the conference went into secret session to ascertain the ability of the several candidates for the order of elders and deacons. Revs. J. A. Tledt and II. II. Relnvehl were voted elders and Revs. R. F. Jamison. W. S. Tracy. C. W. Spangler, B. Schuermeier, F. G. Winter, C. M. Pierce and J. R. Harper were voted deacons. Revs. R. F. Jamison, W. S. Tracy, C. W. Spangler and B. Schuermeier were received into the Itinerancy, after which the morning session adjourned with devotional exercLses. Promptly at 2 o'clock Bishop Bowman opened the afternoon session with devotional exercises. The camp committee gave Its report, which was unanimously adopted. Accordingly a stock company will be formed to take possession of and develop Conklln Hill Park. Rev. G. Heimnilller. of Cleveland, O., editor of the Christliche Botschafter, the oiilclal organ of the church, wa3 received as an advisory member. It was announced that the so-called Regular Evangelical Association, a faction which had some time ago withdrawn from the present Indiana Conference, i3 not flourishing and has recently changed its name to the United Evangelical Association. Rev. T. C. Meckel, of Cleveland, O., corresponding secretary or the missionary society or the .L.vangei ical Association, addressed the conference on "Mission Work." Rev. F. W. Morrison, of the Methodist Protestant Church, wa3 introduced to the conference. The committee on Sabbath and temperance reported. The report, which was adopted, emphatically expressed the position of the conference on temperance in a clause as follows: "That we speak against it (the liquor traffic) by word and vote, and that we will not support any candidate for office who favors, the liquor cause, and we will use our influence to secure such men and legislation as will bring about the prohibition of traffic in strong drink." IX S. Oakes. C. F. Hansing, D. Martz, J. M. Hang and A. Grist were chosen the trustees for the Indiana Conference, which Is an incorporated body. Rev. G. Heimmlller addressed the conference in the interest of his paper, in which he stated that the paper had the largest circulation of any religious paper in America, the number of subscribers being over 20,000. The conference adjourned after a committee was appointed to solicit subscriptions for the Conklln Hill Stock Company. It is the intention of the conference to make thl3 park, which is near Syracuse, this State, one of the most popular and beautiful resorts in the State. The park is situated on the borders of Turkey lake, which has Ion? been recognized as one of the most beautiful lakes in Indiana. In all probability a stock company with a capital of $10,000, each share being worth $23, will be organized in this city within a few days. The ablest members of the conference, some cf whom reside in this city, are behind the project. Great headway has been accomplished in getting the matters In shape, as the park was recently bought by the conference. INDEPENDENT TURNERS' ANNUAL. Best Exhibition Given in Years Features of the Work. English's Opera House was filled last night at the annual exhibition given by the Independent Turnvereln Society, which was the best for years. The precision with which the class in general, and particularly smaller members, many of whom were but toddlers, went through the various exerKises was surprising, and called forth applause. The class games were highly amusing, as the little fellows exerted their utmost strength to master their opponents. The ladder pyramids, all of which were difficult, were given without a break. The active members on the bar exhibition showed up in good style. Each member had a different turn, and executed it with precision. The girls in their song, "Relgen," In rounds and calisthenics, presented the prettiest exhibition of the evening as they intertwined about each other In bewildering style without any confusion. The class wrestling showed the holds in catch-as-catch-can and Graeco-Roman styles. A. Mols, the instructor, and Frank Schaefer, an active member, wrestled catch-as-catch-can style for seven minutes, but neither secured a fall. The closing number, wand and dumbbell drilling, was given by the ladles' class in an even and pretty manner. A. Mols, the instructor, was presented with two beautiful baskets of flowers during the performance. IlurKlnrn on Pnrlc Avenue. Thursday night burglars entered the residence of Lot Lee, No. 441 Park avenue, and stole a small amount of change from Mr. Lee's trousers. The robbery was not discovered until yesterday morning when Mr. Lee found his money missing. As Mrs. Lee and the child appeared to be under the Influence of a narcotic, it was supposed that the robbers, after effecting an entrance, had administered a narcotic to the family. On the same night robbers entered the residence of Mr. W. L. 'Baker, nextt door, No. 440 Park avenue, securing a gold watch and considerable money. Crap Gaines Must Cense. Last night at roll call Superintendent Powell stated that he had been informed that several officers had been lenient on policy writers and "crap" games which were in operation in their districts. "I wish to inform the officers there is to be no partiality shown to any kind of a gambling Institution. All games of chance are forms of gambling, and there is no difference in their general principle. If any of the officers are reported to be showing any Indifference to the enforcement of the laws an investigation will follow." Opening: the Insane HoNpltnl Line. The placing of the electric poles and the laying of the double track on the insane hospital line were completed yesterday and this morning the electric cars will be put Into service, running at Intervals of twelve minutes. The line will be known as the Insane Hospital and English avenue line. The North Indianapoli3 and Mapleton cars will run to the Union Station, instead of to P'nglish avenue. There f.vill be no change in the othei lines for a few days. Something Tlitit Speuku fur Ititelf. Mr. George G.

HERPJCK'S NEW CLERK
He Employs a Man Without Consulting Civil Service llules. The "Tired'' Secretary Says He Pays the JIan Himself Special Council Meetinir Called for Monday. Richard Ilerrick, Democratic clerk of the Board of Tubllc Safety and secretary of the civil-service board of examiners, has appointed an assistant to himself without the formality of compliance with the rules adopted by the civil-service board. The duties of Herrick's double position, by reason of which he is permitted to retain his $1,500 per annum Job, contrary to ordinance, have proven so onerous that in addition to the "patent fire department apparatus," by which he is enabled to open the inner door of the office without unusual exertion, he has employed an additional clerk In the office. The name of the clerk is Joseph C. Harder, and his duties are anything that clerk and secretary Ilerrick may demand. Harder has never filed an application for appointment, as far as can be learned, and has never passed an examination under the direction of the board of examiners. Schedule 1 of Rule 3 of the code of civilservice rules which classify the offices and positions to be filled under the rules contains the classification of clerks. In Class A are those receiving an annual salary of less than $800, and further provides that applicants for appointment in Class A shall be made by competitive examinations. The schedule further provides: "For the purpose of making promotions, the departments employing clerks shall furnish to the secretary of the board of examiners monthly a record of the efficiency, punctuality and fidelity to duty of the clerks in its departments. When a vacancy occurs in any class above Class A, it shall be filled by promotion from the class next below, from one of the three persons having the highest average grade in such monthly records during the preceding year. Provided, however, that should any one of the three having the highest grade not be selected, a reason shall be given therefor and made a matter of record in the secretary's minutes. And provided further, that this rule shall not apply to the chief clerk of any bureau." Ilerrick claims that he pays his clerk out of his own pocket. ALABAMA-STREET OIIDIVAXCES. Special Meeting of the Council Called to Consider Them. A call has been issued for a special meeting of the Council to be held on Monday night. The purpose of the meeting is to consider the ordinances for the improvement of Alabama street and the sale of the pesthouse site. The constitutional limitation upon the Alabama-street ordinance will have expired before the time for the next regular session of the Council, and Chairman Drew, of the Council committee on sewers, streets and alleys, in whose hands the ordinances now are, is anxious to have some action taken upon them by the Council. The Mayor is also anxious to have some action taken upon the pesthouse ordinance, as the time is fast approaching when the probability of the need of the house will have arrived. They Mayor, in his message submitting the ordinances to the Council at its last session, requested that they be passed under a suspension of the rules. It was impossible to do this, however, as there were two members of the Council absent, and the city attorney, upon a former occasion, had held that the affirmative vote of every member of the Council was necessary to make the suspension of the rules valid. All the members of the Council were served with personal notice of the meeting by Sergeant-at-arms Dawson. Mnaftnchnnetta-Avenue Asphalt. The Board of Public Works yesterday adopted improvement resolutions as follows: For paving with asphalt Massachusetts avenue, from Bellefontaine street to the Cleveland, Cincinnati, Chicago & St. Louis railroad tracks. For the construction of a local sewef in the following streets and alleys: Beginning at the center of Andrews street, at the north property line of Fourteenth street, thence extending north in Andrews street to the center of Fifteenth street, thence east in Fifteenth street to he center of he first alley east of Andrews street, thence north In the alley to a point 240 feet north of the north line of Sixteenth street; and beginning at the common center of Fifteenth street and Andrews street, thence extending west in Fifteenth street to the first alley west of Andrews street, thence extending north in said alley to a point 320 feet north of the north line of Sixteenth street. The city engineer was instructed to prepare the necessary papers for cementing the south sidewalk of Ohio street from Delaware to East street C. S. Parry was granted permission to lay a cement walk in front of property owned by him on Twelfth street. An Objection to Cement AVnlks. One of the property owners to be affected by the cementing of Washington street sidewalks wa3 before the Board of Public Works yesterday asking that the board delay this improvement. The objector owns property on East Washington, near Noble street, and the grounds of his request for delay was that the sidewalk might soon prove useless. He says the proposed viaduct at the railroad crossing. If built, would do away with the sidewalk and the expense to the property owners would be without return. Work Uonrd Chnngcs ItH Mind. The works board yesterday rescinded all action heretofore taken by it on the resolution for the Improvement of Stoughton street and thereafter ordered the city engineer to prepare the necessary papers for grading and gTavellng the roadway and bowldering the gutters of the street and paving the sidewalks with brick. That porT tion of the street lying between Brookside avenue and a point 2tt feet east of Sterling street is to be curbed. Gravel on St. Peter Street. Final action was taken yesterday upon the resolution for grading and graveling St. Peter's street and for the vacation of the first alley north of Tennessee street, from Greenwood street to the L. E. & W. tracks. The abutting property owners were ordered to pay into the city treasury the sum of $23 as benefits before the alley should be declared vacated. Bid on Stationers Supplies. Bids were submitted yesterday for furnishing the city departments with stationery supplies for the month of April as follows: W. B. Burford, $2-12.50; Journal Job Printing Company, $233.10; Sentinel Printing Company, $217.2$; Baker & Thornton. $lS8.3o. The contract was awarded to Baker & ThorntonFall Creek Dyke Completed. The dyke along the south bank of Fall creek, from Fourteenth street to Shriver avenue, has been completed, and the cost to the property owners In the dictrict benefited assessed at $5,S4.10. Commissioner Fisher's Pay Roll. The Board of Works has approved vouchers for the pay rolls for the week ending April 5. as follows: Foremen of street repairs, $110.27; bridge gang, $149.20; sewer gang, $1ULW. Thirteenth ."Ward Republicans There is no more effective Republican club in Indianapolis than that of the Thirteenth ward. Its membership embraces many of the best citizens in the ward. Many of the members never took an active interest in politics before the present year. Alout a hundred were present last evening, and an excellent meeting it was. Addresses were made by Hon. W. L. Taylor, Z. A. Smith, dipt. John W. Coons, W. H. Schmidt, R. R. Shiel, George Harvey. J. W. Browning, Harry Smith, G. W. Thompson, Arch Young, Dr. Carver, John J. Johnson, O. D. Cosker and others. William I). Wilson, No. hi Fletcher avenue, Is president of the club. Indiscriminate Garbage Dumping. The sanitary' officers are after several Irsons whose names are as yet unknown. A number of complaints have reached the office of the Board of Health of persons emptying garbage In vacant lots along tha tanks of streams, especially Pofrue'a run. It seems that persons having contracts to remove garbage empty it on any convenient
vacant lot ns soon as they are shielded by darkness. The sanitary inspectors will be put at work to ascertain the names of persons who have been guilty, and they will be prosecuted. HE KILLED A HAD MAN.
George Schlick, a Convict, Pardoned by the Governor. Governor Matthews yesterday pardoned a your.g man named George Schllck from the Prison South, where he Is serving a fifteenyear sentence for killing Richard Cisco in a saloon in Madison five years ago. Schllck was nineteen years old at the time of the tragedy, and had always borne an excellent character, never having been known to drink to excess or to engage In a quarrel. These statements are substantiated by letters from Marcus Sulzer. who was prosecuting attorney there at the time, and others. In August, 1SS3, Schllck, with a friend, went into Boeder's saloon in Madison for a glass of beer. Richard and Robert Cisco, known throughout the town as tough and quarrelsome characters, and who were much larger and - stronger than Schllck. were in the place, and with them was a friend named John Hill, who was of a similar stripe. The latter had some words with Schllck which resulted In his striking the latter over the head with a heavy beer glass and calling on the Cisco's to help him. There was no apparent need for help, as Schilck was cut in the head and overmatched, but the Ciscos, ever ready for a free fight, each picked up a chair and whacked away at Schllck until he was badly battered up. Evidently thinking it well enough to finish the job Richard Cisco ran into a meat shop adjoining the saloon and returned with a big meat knife, whereupon Schllck, bleeding from numerous cuts, ran out of the back door of the saloon. Robert Cisco, who evidently thirsted for more prore, went home, and, getting a shotgun, walked through the street with it to the saloon, saying he proposed to kill Schllck on sifrht. The latter heard of this threat, and, his anger having been aroused over the beating he had received, went home and, getting a revolver, returned to Roeder's place, which was only two squares from his home. He was accompanied by a friend, and they both claim that as he entered the door Richard Cisco, who was sitting nearest to It, arose and made a motion as if to draw a revolver, wherupon Schllck fired and killed him Instantly. Robert Cisco claimed that Schllck opened the door and shot his brother without there having been any move made on the latter's part. The jury was made up altogether of men from the countrj who knew nothing of the bad character of the Ciscos, and Schllck's defense did not seem to bring out that point to any effect. Richard Cisco, the man who was killed, had been shot in a saloon a few months prior to the tragedy during a quarrel over a game of cards for money. This fact seemed to have no weight with the jury, which found Schllck guilty and fixed his sentence at fifteen years. This was In October, 1889, and he has served four and a half years, and the court officials at Madison think he has been sufficiently punished. They have urged his pardon, and many citizens have Joined with them in the petition which was first filed during Governor Hovey's administration. MUST FIND TIIE PEDDLER, Grocer Weber Charged with Selling: Oleo as Hutter. E. Weber, who runs a grocery at the corner of Buchanan and Sullivan streets, was before United States Commissioner Van Buren yesterday on a charge of selling oleomargarine for butter. Sanitary Officer Frank Matlock says he has had numerous complaints recently against Weber, and has been watching him for some time. He had Peter Stewart buy a pound of butter of him yesterday, and shortly afterward sent a little girl In to get some. Taking the purchases, he had them analyzed, and found, so he charges, that the "butter" was oleo without a doubt. Weber and his clerk were decidedly "dense" in their testimony. They appeared unable to remember anything accurately concerning the purchase of the oleo. The man who sold It to them was a peddler of butter and cheese, and they bought from him several times, but did not know his name or even what he looked like. They bought from him only when they happened to be out of butter, and claimed they supposed it was good stuff, had no Idea, in fact, that they were buying oleo. Weber says he has receipts with the man's name on them. The Commissioner was apparently not impressed with the sincerity of the men, and he gave Weber just twenty-four hours to find and report the peddler who sold him the oleo. If Weber cannot produce him in that time the unlucky prrocer will be held to the grand jury in $30 for violating the internal revenue laws. Weber says the peddler brought him the oleo in ten-pound packages in a basket, declares he will trail him industriously until he lands him. Meanwhile, he was informed by the Commissioner that he must sell no more of the suspicious "butter." MK. HAWKINS'S SECOND VICTORY New Jersey Iron Hall Funds Go to Receiver Failey. Attorney Harold Taylor last night received a dispatch from Trenton, N. J., announcing the favorable decision of the courts in the Iron Hall litigation. The court decided that Receiver Failey is entitled to the New Jersey assets in the hands of the local receiver, and that it should be sent to Indalnapolis. By this decison something like $30,000 of funds will be turned over to the general receiver from New Jersey. It is expected that Maryland will next swing into line with a big contribution. The Massachusetts affairs of the Iron Hall are in the hands of the Supreme Court. Mr. Hawkins, attorney for the receiver, is now in the East looking after these cases. New Music nt Plymouth.
