J. B. MANSUITS DEATH

APrcxmciTis rnovns fatal to a PItOMIXKXT YOl.G MA.. III Death in Chicago Of nn Old Fnuill)- nnil IoNrrtl of a Lnrge Kntnte. Word was received . yesterday of the death in Chicago on Thursday night of Joseph Crown Mansur, one of the prominent e.nd wealthy youn? men of this city. Mr. Mansur's death was unexpected, few of bis friends even knowing of his illness. He started for Mackinac a week ago on a pleasure trip. He wai seized with an illness on the train, and at Chicago sent for a physician. The doctor saw that the ease was a serious one. and he had Mr. Mansur transferred to Emergency hospital. Several physicians agreed that Mr. Mansur was suffering from appenJicitis, and it was seen that the only hope of saving his life lay in an operation. The operation, however, was not a successful ore, peritonitis setting in and causing his death. Hi3 wife, mother and brother-In-law, Clarence Wulsln, were with him at the time. Mr. Mansur had been suffering Uiq early part of the year with what was supposed to be indigestion, but aside from this he was apparently in good health. His remains will reach here to-day, and tha funeral will probably be held on Monday. Though a man of large property interests, Mr. Mansur was a man of bold ideas on social problems. He was an excellent business man, and did a great deal for his friends In a financial way. He agreed with Henry George's pfngle-tax idea. He also believed in a number of other reforms which have as yet gained no great headway in the country. Nearly all of his life he has been a member of Christ Episcopal Church, and had been a vestryman for some time. He was born in this city May 4, 1SG2, graduated from the Classical School, and then ppnt two years In the l.nlversity of Pennsylvania. In lhJ2 he married Miss EJith W. liartell. of Philadelphia, and came to live in this city at So. C53 orth Meridian street. The estate which ne Inherited Includes several large blocks ywn town, among which is the Mansur lilocK, at Alabama and Washington streets, and the one at the northeast corner of Market and Illinois. The estate is supposed to be worth several hundred thousand dollars, which includes stock in the indianaoolis National Bank, and naturalgas stock at Wabash. Ind. In 1884 Mr. Mansur went abroad, and four years later ne made a trip around the world, spending some time in Japan. His father's family came 10 mis state from Virginia in Isaiah Mansur settled in this city in 1S47, coming from Richmond, Ind. His father w.a.an o!d cU?e mate and warm friend of Oliver P. Morton. In 1862 Isaiah Mansur founded the Citizens' National Hank of Indianapolis, and six years later he opened a private banking house. He was the confidential agent of Governor Morton, and aided the Governor materially in securing credit for supplies for the soldiers when the State had no funds available. COL. JAS. L. Till Millies PL'S Ell AL. Ills Ilcniuiiin llronght Tlironh Here En Itoute to Centerville. The remains of Col. James Lewis Trumbull, who died at his residence. No. 221 Twenty-ninth street, Chicago, on Tuesday evening last, of apoplexy, passed through this city yesterday afternoon, en route for Centerville, Wayne county, where the obsequies will occur to-day from the former residence of his parents, by whose side he will be buried. Some weeks previous to the Colonel's death Mrs. Trumbull and the children concluded to spend the summer in the old home of the Colonel's parents at Centerville, and went there, but Mrs. Gale, his oldest child, concluded to remain with her father. They were in the habit of riding on the lake shore drive each evening, and on the evening of his death they rode until half past 3. Mrs. Gale ncticed that her father was less talkative than usual, but he did not complain of feeling badb As soon as they entered their home Colonel Trumbull went direct to the bathroom to take a bath, as was his custom. Shortly after Mrs. Gale thought she heard him breathing heavily and called to him. She received no answer, and went to the room, where she found him unconscious in the bathtub. Two physicians were summoned, but he was dead before they arrived. The physicians said a blood vessel had broken, and the blood had been oozing into his brain all day, and that he had died without having suffered a particle of pain. Mrs. Trumbull and her daughter May returned to Chicago on the first train after receiving the telegram announcing her husband's death, and determined to bury him beside hi3 parents at his old home, in accordance with his often expressed wish. Religious services were held at his Chicago residence at an early hour yesterday morning by the Rev. Dr. Lynch, of the Episcopal Church. The music was beautifully rendered, the hymns "Jesus, Lover of My Soul," and "Just as I Am." etc.. being sung by an attache of Colonel Trumbull's ofhee. The lloral offerings were very numerous and among the handsomest ever made in Chicago, and were the offerings of the officers and employes of the American Express Company, of which Colonel Trumbull was general superintendent. The funeral party came over the Monon, at 3:55 yesterday afternoon, and, with the remains, were transferred to the Pennsylvania road, and left for Centerville at 5 o'clock. A number of friends and relatives of the family, as well as some thirty members of Geo. H. Thomas Post. G. A. It., under Comrade Merrifleld, commander of the post, were at the station to offer their sympathy and kind offices to the widow and family of their former comrade. Mrs. Trumbull shook hands with each comrade and expressed her gratitude for their kind remembrance of her late husband. The obsequies will be held at Centerville at 2 o'clock this afternoon, under the auspices of the Frank Deitzel Post, G. A. R. The religious exercises will be conducted by the Rev. Dr. Cathell, of Richmond, Ind. A number of friends of the family will go to Centerville this morning to be present at the funeral. Colonel Trumbull was an enthusiastic Ma3on and a member of the Scottish Rite. lie was formerly a member of the George H. Thomas Post, G. A. R., of this city, but transferred his membership to the George H. Thomas Post at Chicago when he took up his residence in that city several years ago. He was born at Centerville, Wayne county, Indiana, fifty-eight years ajjo, but removed to this city and was engaged In the express business when the war broke out. He enlisted with the rtrst company that entered Camp Morton, but his clerical and business qualifications being persoi.ally known to Governor Morton he was detailed for worTt In connection with the quartermaster's department In fitting out troon3 for the field. The energy and correct business methods displayed in the line of duty attracted the attention of his superior officers and he was assigned to some of the most important stations and duties in connection with this line and was promoted through all the grades up to lieutenant colonel, being mustered out with that rank in May, 1h;. He was an expert accountant and his services were in demand at important stations where a high grade of financial and executive ability were demanded, and his rapid promotions were his reward for his honest, faith.ful and intelligent discharge of his duty. For a considerable time he was one of Gen. James A. Ekln's principal assistants at this place and much of that splendid efficer's success was due to Colonel Trumbull's loyalty, energv and splendid business qualifications. Colonel Trumbull was appointed local agent at this place for the Merchants' Union Express Company directly after the war and rose to assistant superintendent of that company which was consolidated, after a few years' experience, with one of its Rreat rival. Colonel Trumbull going to Chicago as Western superintendent of the Merchants' Dispatch, the American Express Company's fast freight line. He finally resigned that position to accept an appointment tendered him by Senator Oliver I. Morton a3 special agent of the Internal Revenue Department. He remained in this position several years, discharging his difficult and intricate duties with honor to himself and credit to the government. During this time. Gen. John C. New. Assistant Secretary of the Treasury under the administration of President Arthur, had him detailed to act as his private secretary, he having acted in a similar capacity to General New during his firs', term as chairman of the Republican State central committee of Indiana during the memorable Garfield campaign of IjSO. He left the Internal revenue service to resume hU connection with the express business and became the assistant I to Charles Fargo, the vice president and

general manager of the Western department, of the American Exnress Company's business at Chicago. He was raised in this business, and was thoroughly versed in all Its details and was a valuable assistant. He w?.s afterward made superintendent of the Illinois and Wisconsin division, and acaln promoted to the superintendency of Its Western and Southwestern business. H h occupied many important and responsible positions, in which he demonstrated qualities of tre highest order and earned for himself the respect and confidence of many of the most noted statesmen anl business men of tne country, among whom were Senator O. P. Morton, John A. Logan, Charles Fargo. Peter Sturieb?ker and many others equally prominent, and well known in the political as well as the business world. He was possessed of fine social qualities, and was at home in anv assemblaee where good sense, energy ana business tact were required. He enjoyed a large acquaintance in all parts of the country, but did not have many Intimates. He was Joyal and devoted to thoe to whom he gave his confidence. No truer or more loyal man to his friends ever lived. He was noted for the respect and affection he always entertained for his parents during their lives and his devotion to their memory since their death. He leaves a wife and three children.

JAMKS nnODRV, OP 31. OTOX3SOR A CO., DAXGEHOISLY IXJUtED. Willtnm Klelnsclunirit nnd Mcsnra. "Welch nnd Collins, of Mnttoon, 111., Also Seriously Hurt. There was a runaway accident on North Illinois street last night, about 10 o'clock, in which four men were Injured, and two of them dangerously. James Broden, of the wholesale grocery firm of M. O'Connor & Co., has his skull badly injured, with Indications of a fracture; Mr. Collins, a wholesale grocer of Mattoon, 111., will probably lose his left eye, and William Kleinschmidt. of the Danbury Hat Company, is suffering from a badly bruised head and shoulders. Mr. Welch, of Mattoon, the third member of the party, suffered slight injuries. The two gentlemen from Illinois were visiting in the city, and early in the evening Messrs. Broden and Kleinschmidt took them out for a drive and to show them the city. A rig was hired at Woods's stable. The party was driving north on Illinois street along the street-car track when the accident occurred. In attempting to turn the buggy out of the tracks, it seems a wheel was wrenched loose from the vehicle. The veering of the carriage frightened the horse, and he plunged towards an electric pole. Then he took up a wild gait, dashing along the street and throwing the occupants of the vehicle out on the asphalt at intervals of about fifty yards apart. Tho city ambulance was returning from a call when the. driver saw the accident to the rig on Illinois street. He turned the horse about and started to follow the mad animal attached to the carriage. A stop was made to pick up one of the occupants who had been thrown out on the pavement. Thi3 was Mr. Collins, who was found senseless, with his eye badly gouged and his lips torn and cut. Mr. Broden was found fifty yards further up the street. He. too, was in an Insensible condition. .Air. Kleinschmidt, although bruised and cut. had not lost consciousness and was able, with slight assistance, to get into the ampulance. Mr. Welch was found with his legs tangled up with the carriage wheels. The horse had brougrht ui at a wire fence, smashing the carriage to pieces. Drs. Gelss and Carlon were In the ambulance and they gave the injured quartet immediate attention. The four men were taken to Dr. Geiss's office on East Ohio street. It was some time before Mr. Rroden regained consciousness. There Is some apprehension as to his condition. Mr. Collins may be Injured Internally. It is quite probable that he will lose his left eye. which had evidently been struck by some sharp projectile. Messrs. Broden and Kleinschmidt were sent to their homes, while the other two gentlemen were taken to the hotel where they were stopping. The ambulance was coming from the home of John Goodenecht, 1n5 North Mississippi street, at the time of the accident. Goodenecht is a fireman at engine house No. 1. and was injured on Prospect street. He was driving along that street early in the evening in a buggy when he was thrown out. He was badly bruised and may be injured internally. A CONTEST OP BRASS Ufifcs. Attractive Feature to Be Provided for the State Fair. The executive committee of the State Board of Agriculture was In session yesterday, shaping up various matters for the approaching fair and considering new schemes to popularize that annual institution. One of the suggestions favorably looked upon is the making of a "music day," on Friday of fair week. At this time it is proposed to have a contest of music in which four famous bands will participate. Bellstedt's, of Cincinnati, and the Second Regiment, of Chicago, are two of the bands that will probably be engaged. The third will be the local band furnishing the regular music for the fair and the fourth has not yet been suggested. The idea is to have the bands first arranged in front of the grand stand in the form of a Maltese cross, and representing four nations, Kngland. Germany, France and America. The national air of each country will be played by the band representing it. after which the organizations will play together as one band. Eich will then be given a chance to demonstrate separately what it can do In the way of furnishing good music. An attractive programme can thus be arranged and the day made one of the brightest of the entire week. The Department Undgc. Yesterday afternoon a committee, acting under the direction of the State Encampment of the Grand Army, consisting of Col. I. N. Walker, Gen. J. R. Carnahan, Assistant Adjutant-general Smock, Assistant Quartermaster-general Weaver, E2. G. Booze, of the council of administration, and Z. A. Smith, went over to Rockville to present to Hon. Jarnes T. Johnston the badge which the encampment voted him last April wlien he retired from the position of department commander. The badgre was made in this city, and is as fine a piece of work in that line as can be produced. The head is the emblem of the membership badge, with a ruby in the eye of the eagle. Undtr this is tha rank badge of department commander, a diamond being set in the midst of the two stars indicating the rank. Suspended from the badge is the cavalry emblem of cross sabers, indicating the branch of the service in which Past department Commander Johnston served. Suspended from the saler bands Is the badee of the Ninety-third Army Corps, and the Grand Army star, which has a diamond in each point. On the reverse side is the inscription: "Presented by the unanimous vote of the Fifteenth Annual Encampment of the Department of Indiana, Grand Army of the Republic, to James T. Johnston, department commander 1S33-91." Second Medal nt Antwerp. Frank E. Scott, an old Indianapolis boy, now living in Taris, has taken the second medal on one of his paintings In the Antwerp Universal Exposition. This medal Is next to the highest award, there being only one first medal. Mr. Scott left Indianapolis a number of years ago, and during the most of this time has been studying in Paris. He was educated here. Is a son of Mr. John Scott, and Is about thirty years of age. Expense nt IJIspennnry. The report of the City Dispensary for the month of July has been received at the Board of Health office. The report shows a total of 1.397 cases treated, of which 1,194 were at the dispensary and 23 outside. The total expenditures for the month are .'17.50, which is less than half what the expenses of August. 1SL3. were. Dr. Wright, of the city Hospital, submitted to the board bills allowed to the amount o! 1,4 13.77. Gen. Dan Mnmuley'n Remains. The remains of the late Gen. Dan Macauley will be brought back from Nicaragua and probably be burled in this city. Secretary of State Gresham has made arrangements for the return of the remains to this country.

REFERRED TO MK.DUNN

JOIIX R. PEARSOV SAID THE SEXTIZVEIS EDITOR IS AX AXAHCIIIST. Dlscumslon of the Xntnrnl-Gnu Problem Ilefore the Finance Committee of the Council. The Council finance committee held a lengthy session in the city clerk's office last night and again listened to representatives from the two natural-ga3 companies upon the proposition to tax gas main3. All those present said In substance that the proposedtax meant death to the companies and backed their statements by producing accounts and figures showing the proportion of receipts and expenses of the companies. The early part of the evening was taken up --ith a discussion of the decreasing pressure in the gas wells. Superintendent "William II. Shackleton, of the Consumers Gas Company, had a large map showing the location of gas wella in the State and direction of pipe lines by which he illustrated the points made by him. He said the average pressure at the wells was 259 pounds and that wells drowned out with salt water at 200 pounds pressure. The company had now a large number of wells "shut in" in order to keep them alive, till next winter. He said the company had drilled 1S9 wells and had but 160 live wells. The average cost of a well was $1,130. He cited several instances, naming the particular wells, where wells had decreased from 238 and higher pressure to a point where they were dead. He said he had been experimenting all summer trying to devise some means of reviving wells that had been drowned out. The companies had reached the limit of their capacity to increase the pressure. A few years ago by extending their territory the companies could Increase the pressure, but now the field was so thoroughly occupied that this could not be done. He said he did not believe that there was a well south of the river from Halford Station that was not wet. This was due to the fact that the Trenton rock in this territory Is below the sea level. Mr. Shackleton had with him a book containing semi-monthly reports on the pressure of the Consumers' Company's wells, which he submitted to the committee. It. N. Lamb also spoke briefly. He said he had heard the question asked as to what would become of the Consumers' Trust when all the stockholders and indebtedness had been paid in full. This he thought was so far away In the future that It was hardly pertinent to the consideration of the question before the committee. He said the stock was held by the trustees as a unit for the benefit of the city and would continue to be so held by them after the subscribers had all received back their money. They have not been paid back, except the 10 per cent, recently paid them, which left still to be paid out of the net profits the sum of $710,0X). He said the articles of Incorporation provide that the trustees shall never receive a cent of compensation for their services. The service of the trustees is a gratuitous public service. The trustees elect directors annually. There Is an opinion that the trustees and directors eat up the profits with expenses. If the trustees attempted anything of that kind any citizen could go into a court and require them to make an accounting. The directors might have asked and received compensation for their services, but they never have. In concluding Mr. Lamb said: "We are here as representatives of the public interest, the same as you, gentlemen. Ve have nothing to conce- Our interest is your interest and your interest is the interest of the people. It seems to me that instead of levying a special tax everything should be done to facilitate us. We are already taxed in three counties on our tangible property for more than $100.00 more than our stock will sell for. On .Anril 1 our stock could not be sold for more than 75 cents on the dollar." Mr. Allen Wasn't it agreed by sever-' of the leading attorneys of the city at t time the trust was organized that It was illegal, and was not the J-epislature afterwards called upon to legalize Its incorporation? Mr. Iamb No; it was merely suggested by some people that the incorporation might be illegal, and to make it double sure the Legislature legalized the incorporation. Mr. Allen Db you know any other Incorporation where all the stock is put in the hand3 of trustees? Mr. Lamb No, sir; and I don't want to. I have knewn enough of them. Mr. John It. Pearson was thpn asked to address the committee for the Indianapolis company. He assured the members of the committee that he should talk plainly and frankly, and before he concluded gave positive evidence that he meant every word he said. He said: "I am not here to tell lies, and will not He to you. Ask me any question 3ou like. All I ask Is that you be frank and tell me the source of your Information and upon what authority you sp?ak." He said the State had secured two hundred million dollars' worth of manufacturing properties -since the discovery of natural gas, and wanted to know why it was that it was necessary to publish to the world that the gas supply was not as bountiful as it was, and why as much more manufacturing property could not be secured. He did not think the companies ought to be compelled to advertise tho fact that the wells were failing. He said he saw In the News a statement that the pressure at Elwood was 250 pounds. This, he said, was false. The highest pressure ever reached in the field was 330 pounds. He offered to purchase for members of the finance committee a fine suit of clothes if they could find a well about Elwood at which the pressure was higher than 2S0 pounds. He also said that this would be the last year when the companies could supply the number of consumers they now have without the use of pumps, and then 'they would pump large quantities of water. Here he warmed up to nis subject. He said: "There is but one man who wants the gas mains taxed, and he Is Mr. Dunn, of the S?ntlnel. and Dunn is an Anarchist. I am not saying this behind his back, for I hope that somebody will tell him that I said It." He paid the Indianapolis company had thirty-four wells which they would have to abandon soon because the pressure at the well would be less than the line pressure, and. Instead of the well feeding the line, the line would be feeding the well. Mr. Hug-h Hanna then spoke for the Trust, and said that it had expended $1,900,000 of its revenue to keep up the supply of gas. Tn seven years it had paid but four dividends, when it should have paid fourteen. He said this was not the time to levy a special tax in the face of the exhaustion of the wells. He was also opposed to special taxation on general principles, except as against corporations that enjoyed a monopoly. Then followed a general informal discussion, in which all took part. Mr. Pearson said that 60 per cent, of the gas was wasted here by escaping through nues. He also said there were 2,400 houses in this city where nothing but a cook stove was used. It serving for heating" as well as cookiiifr purposes. Mr. Frenzel said the companies wrere compelled each year to appear before some public body and fight for their very lives In speaking of the expense of maintenance Mr. Pearson said his company had twenty-two miles of twelve-inch mains and was now engaged in placing at each joint a protection to prevent leaks. These were placed everv twelve feet, and each one cost fT.oO. The Improvement of the streets was also a source of great expense to the companies, as they had to repair their mains nearly every time a street in which mains were laid was Improved. LOXESOUEXESS AT PRIMARIES. Democrats Are Exceedingly Scarce The Convention To-Day. If the attendance at the Democratic primaries last night may be taken as the basis of a forecast as to the result of the fall election. Democratic ballots will be so scarce that It will be hard to find them in the stacks of ballots. In the "good old Democratic times" the least provocation brought out an aggregation down in the "Bloody Twenty-fifth." In those days the mere announcement of a Democratic meeting of any sort brought them swarming from all directions. But times have changed. The "Bloody Twenty-fifth" has Klven way to the "Bloody Fifteenth." and at the present writing the Indications would seem to how that the announcement of a Democratic primary was sufficient to stampede the denizens thereof. The primary In precinct No. 153 was held at No. 23 West Morris street last night, and was attended by exactly eight persons. General Apathy has moved Into the precinct and ha attended the primary last

nle-ht This is a precinct where the DemScntk of the -'cool old times" used to turn out in hundreds. The "Boo" cans: captured the primary in the one-hundred-and-sixth precinct, where Tom Duffy has so often boasted that he controlled affairs. The "Boo" ran swooned down on the meeting and elected the six delegates. They are for George for sheriff, while Duffy was for Emmett. It was in this delegation at the last Democratic convention that James Moriar ty created a scene by declaring that no halt rllepate could vote from that precinct. There will be a half delegate this time, however, for Lewis Shaler, who recently lost both less in a railroad wreck, is among the delegates. , xj . In nearly all the precincts the attendance was verv lieht. In some of them there was no decrease in the numbers and some real "Democratic" fights oter delegations were had. In others it took some fine maneuvering to get enoueh men into the primary to make up a delegation. The primaries last nltrht were the first held under the new districting made by the County Commissioners. There were about a dozen contests presented to the credentials committee at the Hendricks Club house last night, and that committee was wrangling with the perplexing questions .presented until after midnight last night. The committee met in a room in the basement, but even this tisrhtly sealed room could not hold all the vociferous kicking that was made. The most vigorous "kick" came from Warren township, and was made by William J. Rleicher. the candidate for county commissioner from the Third district. His kick was that Kd Little, an opponent, was elected chairman of the primary in a verv irregular way. Rleicher was of the opinion that he was being "buncoed" and called on the credentials committee to stop the buncoers. There was considerable feeline aroused in the district between the friends of the two candidates, and it is not unlikely that knives were being whetted last niz:ht end will be freely used, or attempted to be used, to-day In the convention, which will be held at Tomlinson Hall at 9 o'clock. Green-e Smith will probably be chairman of the convention, although a number of Democrats are opposed to bringing out the fee-grabber so prominently. The machine favors the selection of Peter Sirdlinger, a butcher, as the nominee for treasurer. It is said that he would contribute largely to the campaign fund. Xewspnper from Jupnn. Mr. Yoshiml, a Japanese merchant of this city, yesterday received a batch of papers from Japan giving versions of the beginning of the trouble in the Orient. The newspaper he received was the Sun of Osakl, a Journal with a circulation of one hundred thousand on the island of Japan. It is claimed that the Interception of telegrams sent from Seoul to Japan via Shanghai has much to do with stirring up strife. A letter received by Mr. Yoshiml stated that Chinese were leaving all parts of the Japanese empire. The exodus was so great that where money-changers had been charging 30 cents commission for changing paper dollars to silver the rate had been increased tenfold. The Chinese were able to dispose of Japanese silver money in China without loss, but it cost a considerable sum to dispose of paper dollars. Always Alientl!
