MUNCIU, Ind., Sept. 5. The Democratic tariff bill may have to answer for the life of Julius B"m. of this city, who took a dosf o! arsenic to-day with suicidal intent. Mr. BoLs was a Belgian who was endeavoring to rear up a large family on his salary a3 a glass blower. When he came to Muncie his wages were ample, but the cuts reduced his pay until there was barely a living in it. He became despondent, and when the recent last cut of 22j2 per cent, was announced by the f,A.ssocIatlon of Glass Manufacturers on ac count of the tariff schedule he figured out that his wages would not be sufficient for his economical wife to make both ends meet and brooded over it until his grief became unbearable. To-day he swallowed a dose of poison with a view to ending his trouble. Doctors were summoned, and after working w?.h him some time they gained the upper hand of the effects of the poison. It is given out to-night that he may recover. M. W COXFEHECE. Forty-Fourth Annual ScMiion Con vene nt Lafayette. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. LA FAYETTE.

HEARING OF TUB COXTEMPT CASE IIEGl? AT CHICAGO. The A. R- F. Leader Telegrams Read In Couri The "liny n. (iun Messngc 2Vot Sent by Hlni. CHICAGO. Sept. 5. The hearing of the contempt case against President Debs and other officers of the A. R. U., which was discontinued on. July 23, was taken up by Justice Woods this morning. Special counsel Edwin Walker, for- the government,-announced the filing of a supplemental bill of information, which was read by ex-District Attorney Milchrlst. Attorney Gregory, for the defense, moved for a trial by jury, which was temporarily overruled by Judge Woods. After the sealing of the answer by the defendants to the supplemental bill, the taking of testimony was begun. E. A. Mulford, Jr., Western Union Telegraph Company manager, 'us called and produced a collection of over nine thousand telegrams bearing on the strike. The defense bitterly objected to the admission of the telegrams, but Judge Woods finally admitted them. Dozens were read, and when the famous "Save your money and buy a gun" message was reached It was found that It also contained the words: "Tell Effie I am well," phnring it to be a private telegram. Attorney Gregory took occasion to denounce the prosecution for giving the incomplete message for publication. Judge Woods said that he did not consider that the alleged garbling of thb dispatch amounted to much. "When I read that telegram In the papers," said the court, "I did not attach much importance to It, as It did not appear particularly Incendiary." It was shown that Debs had nothing to do with the sending of the "buy-a-gun" di.Tpatch, and that it was sent by a subordinate. After the reading of other telegrams Mr. Mulford wus temporarily excused, and John Brennock, a city contractor, took the stand. During his hearing President Debs entered the court room, ate -was pale from his recent illness and seemed scarcely able to stand as he slowly walked to his seat. Mr. Debs had not been expected to be present at' to-day's proceedings, and left his bed against his physician's order. Mr. Brennock related how the Panhandle railroad was unable to move several cars of dead animal on account of the strike, when witness called on the Mayor, who rent o. man with him to see Debs, who gave him a note to the effect that should t-he Panhadndle people unove the dead animal cars they would not be interfered With. "The Panhandle people paid no attention to .this," said the witness. After waiting some days he finally had the cars moved with the assistance of the police. In the afternoon Mr. Mulford resumed the reading of telegrams. It was found that the original telegrams in most cases were In type-writing, with the name of Mr. Debs printed on It. Part of them were written in a rather school-boyish hand, which the witness was sure could not be Mr. Debs's. He said he knew Mr. Debs's handwriting, and out of more than a hundred telegrams he -picked out two during the day which Mr. Mulford said belonged to Mr. Debs. Mr. Erwln brought out The testimony that a person who held a frank like Mr. Debs was only compelled to present the signature the first time, when it was registered, and the telegram receivers after that sent all the messages brought to them signed by that name without knowing who wrote them. One of the dispatches said to be In Mr. Debs's handwriting was as follows; "To Lee Metz. Mat toon. 111.: "Tie up Big Four. Tied up at Cairo and Cinoinnati. Other points will be tied up to-day. We are gainng ground, and success certain." At 5 o'clock court adjourned until tomorrow morning, when Mr. Mulford will continue his testimony. Glass Workers Accept the Cut.

Mr. Willis said: "Mr. President The right of the pefple of the Hawaiian islands to establish their own form of government has been formally acknowledged by the executive and legislative departments of the United States. It seems projer, therefore, so far as 1, t'ne diplomatic agent, have the right, to extend recognition to the icpublic of Hawaii, it having been created under due form of law and existing without effective opposition. The action tnus taken has, I am glad to state, Ik en fully approved by the proper authorities at Washington. As the highest evidence of the fact, I have received an autograpn letter from the President of the United States, addressed to you, the President of the republic. In delivering this letter, as instructed, permit me to join in friendly seniiments. and to express the hope that through the government nosv inaugurated peace, prosperity and happiness will be secured to all the people of these Islands." Mr. Willis then presented the following letter from Mr. Cleveland: "Grover Cleveland, President of the United States, to His Excellency, Sanford B. Dole, President of Hawaii: "Great and Good Friend I have received your letter of the 17th ult., by which you announce the establishment and proclamation of the republic of Hawatl'on tne 4th of July, 1S;M, and your assumption of the office of President, with the formalities prescribed by the Constitution thereof. T cordially reciprocate the statements you express for the continuance of friendly relations which have existed between the United States and the Hawaiian islands, and to assure you of my best wish for your own personal prosperity. "Your good friend, Grover Cleveland. "By the President: "W. Q. Gresham, Secretary of State." In reply Mr. Dole said: "Mr. Minister It Is with sincere gratification that I have received the information that the President of the United States has confirmed the recognition so promptly extended by your Excellency to the republic of Hawaii. Permit me. on behalf of the Hawaiian people, to reciprocate t'ae friendly sentiments expressed by you toward this government and assure you of our desire that relations of comity and of commercial intercourse which shall be mutual and advantageous may ever exist between the two countries." The information of the recognition has taken the wind out of the royalists, and the most rabid of them acknowledge the cause of the ex-Qucen is now dead. One prominent royalist ,who expresses the views of many, said last evening: "The recognition is complete. .We must acknowledge that fact. But If the royalist commission, consisting of Parker, Wldemann and Cummings, had never gone to Washington the republic would never have been recognized. They have ruined the Queen's cause as thoroughly as if they had taken a request from the Qu?cn for annexation." The first election under the republic will be held during the last week in October, when Senators and Representatives will be elected. Every inducement is being offered to make the natives register, and they seem to be rapidly falling Into line. LOXG PENSION CASK. Government Officials Eiifcngrcd In n Petty Crusade.

The Supreme Lodge of Knights of Pythias devoted its morning session to-dav to a discussion of the proposed new statutes, and adopted a new system of transfer of membership. Under former rules, a member taking a card of . withdrawal from a lodge ceased to be a member of the order, and was obliged to apply for admission to another lodge on the same terms as one who had never been initiated. The new rules provide that by paying dues for ninety days a Knight may retain his membership In his old lodge, unless admitted to another within that time. The reports of the committee favoring exclusion of liquor dealers from future membership In the order and the restraint of the German lodges from performing the ritual in their language are ready for presentation, but will probably not be considered until late in the session. It i understood that the report upon several past supreme chancellors recommends that a committee be appointed to investigate the circumstances of the Indianapolis meeting, and If the action of that meeting is found, to constitute disloj-alty the past supremo chancellors who took part be disbarred from participation In the proceedings of tha Supreme Lodge.
