MUNCIE, Ind., Oct. 13. The closing act in the highly sensational Adele Parrott cae was enacted In Muncie to-day, when the young lady arrived here from Bluffton. he had left Indianapolis Thursday morning, going to Richmond on the Panhandle roai. anl from there to Geneva, Adams county, on the Grand Rapids & Inalana railway. She had Just money enough to ipt home by walking from the railroad, a distance of six mlle3, to her father's home, lie had not yet learned of the sensational escapade, and yesterday she drove to Bluffton to see her sister and tell her that fhe wa3 going to Florida to see another filter. When she arrived In Bluffton she Yearned that her sister was In Muncie, and f the great anxiety her strange departure fial occasioned here. This morning she toinled a train for this city, arriving in Muncie at noon. A hundred or more anxious citizens met her at the depot, and .she wa3 an object of much notice. Rev. Clarke, paMor of the Baptist Church, who was instrumental in getting her the position in the Muncie schools, took charge of her ani received the explanation. She stated that she had received word of her sifter's serious sickness In Florida, and she decided to go and see her. She -did not want to let her relatives know of her Intentions. a.3 they would likely object She deci led to secretly go to Franklin, where he graduated from college, and there secure the money of Mrs. W. II. Woodswell mi go on her Journey. She left Muncie an hour after she left the school room, 'hoarding the Lake Erie & Western train for Indianapolis. There she met Miss Anna Guenther. and soon decided not to go to Franklin, but to return home and get the money from her father, who is a wealthy farmer. A stc.-y was printed here to the effect that the girl had spent last Tuesday night at a. boarding house In this city with a ptranger. She was taken to the house today and the proprietor stated emphatically that Adele was not the woman who stayed there. There seems to ba little or no ex ruse for her very strange action. It had been decided that the city fire bells should 'be rung when she was found, but the disgusted citizens would not permit her returning to the school. She will be taken home from here to-night. . Miss Parrott seemed to be slightly erratic, and could give an account of only part of her wanderings. She does not remember what time she arrived in Indianapolis Wednesday, She says she remem-lit-rs sleeping on a couch In the ladles waiting room at the Union Station Wednesday rJxht Whn she awoke Thursday morning, llit? says, she' seemed dazed, and could not account for her being where ehe was. Gradually the situation dawned on her, and she decided to send a postal to Muncie telling her friends where she was. After this came another blank space. She recollects only about buying toe postal," but not as to what she wrote. She bought it and mailed It at the Union Station. She left Indianapolis for Bluffton Thursday afternoon.

Michael Paloski, a Slav, was the cause of the wholesale shooting. Early in the evening Paloski became intoxicated, .and, going to the saloon of John Moore, started a quarreL. He was ordered from the saloon, and, becoming enraged at this kind of treatment, he started for hi3 home to procure a shotgun. He got the gun, and on his way back to the saloon he encountered Daniel Ryan, who was sitting on his porch, together with Lizzie Fosky and Maggie Moore. Ryan advised Paloski to go home, but the latter, who was in a rage, raised his gun and fired. The two girls received most of the shot and fell to the porch, shrieking with pain and blood spurting from their wounds. John Moore, who had been attracted by the shooting, quickly picked up his sister, and Ryan gathered up the Fosky girl in his arms, and both made a rush for the door to escape the enraged Slav. Before the men were able to get inside the door the drunken man emptied the second barrel Into the girls. Moore receiving part of the load in his knee. Paloski was then Joined by two of his countrymen, who were also supplied with s:uns. John Jenkins attempted to arrest Paloski. when he received a load of shot In his stomach. The crowd then rushed upon the Slavs and attempted to disarm them, but they escaped into their boarding house and barricaded the door. The three men thrust their heads through a window and threatened to kill the first person who attempted to enter the house. The crowd began to fall back, and as they did so one of the three men fired, but the shot did not take effect. People living on the opposite of the street were attracted by the shooting and had their heads out of the windows. Oue of these was George Sivosky. One of the Slavs, seeing the head of the boy, took deliberate aim and fired, the full charge striking the unfortunate lad on the left side of the head, tearing half of his head and face away. The terror-stricken neighbors closed their windows and barricaded their doors. The murderous Slavs, finding no human beings to shoot at, turned their guns at lighted windows, posts and trees, and anything their fancy suggested. After all had become quiet several men. armed with revolvers and shotguns, went to the house to arrest the murderers. The door of the house was found open, however, and the men were nowhere to be found. They had lied.

JL. HAD AX AVDI15XCB OF JCST IXETEEX 3IEX AT FOUXTAIXTOW.V. Disappointing Reception for Governor Matthews at Frankfort Republicans Good Work. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. FOUN'TAINTOWN. Ind.. Oct. IS. Congressman Holman broke (he Democratic low record for crowds when he had just nineteen people at the old precinct schoolhouse here last night. There were ten Republicans and nine Democrats in the crowd. It was the most lamentable political failure in Shelby county. For a week the Democrats had been drumming up the township to turn out and give Mr. Holman an enthusiastic reception. Bills announcing the meeting were posted for miles around, but the little crowd simply froze the heart out of the veteran Congressman and his talk was a pitiful appeal for Just one more term in Congress. WHGRB CHGADLC SPOKE. Great Enthusiasm at Vevny and a Good Speech at Columbus. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. VEVAY. Ind., Oct. 13. This is a close political county, and the Democrats are now In control of all the offices, but from the size and spirit of the Republican meetings this week it Is plain that the daya of Democracy are ; numbered In old Switzerland. Thursday night Hon. J. B. Cheadle, ex-member of Congress from the Ninth district, and Hon. Marcus R. Sulzer, president of the Lincoln League of Indiana, spoke. There were in reality two meetings, one In the afternoon and one at night, the crowds being too large to assemble in the courthouse. Mr. Cheadle said to-nifiht that there were only a few meetings in all his many years of experience that equaled this In spirit. The heavy rainstorm at night seemed to have no bad effect on the audience, which was as large as that in the afternoon. A feature of the day was the Interest 'shown by the women, who decorated the rostrum with flowers in the most beautiful manner, and had the hall hung in graceful and patriotic draperies. Special to the indlanapolis Journal. COLUJIDfJS, Ind., Oct. 13. This has been one of the big days in Republicanism in this county. The arrival of General Harrison brought a crowd into this city from the country that was estimated at 2,0)). Hon. J. B. Cheadle was present and addressed an outdoor meeting numbering more than a thousand. ENTHUSIASM FOR. WATS OX. AVorlc in Franklin County that Dazed the Democrats. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. BROOKAILLE, Ind., Oct. 13. The Hon. James E. Watson, candidate for Congress in this district, has made the most thorough canvass ever made in the Fourth district. He came in this county on the 5th, at Sharpstown. From there he went to Cedar Grove, on Saturday afternoon, the 6th, and at Mount Carmel on that .night. Spending Sunday at Bfookville, he renewed his attack cn the enemy on Monday after.noon at Colter's Corner, and at Fairfield on that night. The next day he was at Blooming Grove in the afternoon and at Laurel at night. At Laurel he came in contact with a large number of idle quarrymen, that have been reduced to want at the hands of the present administration. The following day he was at Slipp's Hill and Metamora at night, where he had a very enthusiastic meeting. He finished his present canvass of the county at Andersonville on Thursday, where he and Colonel Gooding had a Joint debate. Large and attentive audiences greeted him in every Instance. Many were o taken with him that they followed him to several meetings. He made friends everywhere. Large numbers of voters since hearing him have signified their sincere intentions of voting for hfm in preference to Mr. Holman. When Watson returns here In the latter part of the campaign to speak at this point he will be met by a most hearty and enthusiastic audience, even in this heretofore stronghold of 'Holman and' Democracy, where the Democrats have thus far in the present campaign been absolutely unable to pret out anything like a crowd, either on their opening day, to hear Colonel Follett, of Cincinnati, or on last Wednesday, after the most persistent and thorough advertising, to hear Capt. W. R. Myers. Their utter failure in these two efforts has greatly confused them. ANOTHER OBJECT LESSON. Howard County Farmer Can't Compete with Canada Hay. Special tq the Indianapolis Journal. KOKOMO. Ind.. Oct. 13. 'Squire Boggs. of Warren township, Clinton -county, has had his experience with the new tariff law, and knows its effect on the farming industry in this country. For several years past Mr. Boggs has been shipping his hay to Baltimore, Md., always finding it a good market. Last week he shipped nineteen carloads there, according to his usual custom. Yesterday he received a letter from his commission merchant stating that on account of the tremendous amount of hay sent to Baltimore from Canada since the tariff bill was passed there was no market for his consignment, and it would scarcely sell for enough to pay freight. Mr. Boggs was further informed that his nineteen carloads of hay were in the Baltimore yards, subject to the shipper's orders. 'Squire Boggs is thoroughly distrusted with the Democratic party and its destructive legislation. Whnt the Miner Think. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. CLINTON, Ind., Oct. 13. A crowded house to-night greeted the Hon. John F. Scanlan, of Chicago, as he rostr to address the peoph? an the issues of the day from a Republican standpoint. The contrast between the size of his audience and that two weeks ago of Hon. E. V. Brookshire, tho Pimocrat Congressman, cs he apologized for what he had done and what his party had done, was not more marked than was the enthusiasm of the crowd. Brookshire's audience heard him througrh in moody silence, not a single cheer being evoked, while Mr. Scanlan was frequently stopped by bursts of applause as rhey did two years ago. The Democrats tried to get up a toy, in ths meeting and James Payne, one of the Democratic leaders of the township, was ejected from the hall by the police and pla-ted in the calaboose for disturbing the meeting. The names of McKinley and Harrison were trreeted with hearty cheejrs and when he urged the miners to vote, for Faris for Congress and put a. stop to fiie free coal fallacy of Brookshire many cal'fcd out "We will." f Ch'Arlen ColUn'i Illfc Meeting.

Nearly a thousand people were in the hall anl the street anxious to gain admittance. Mr. Coffin discussed the pension, tariff and other questions ably and eloquently. The packed audience listened without a cessation of interest throughout the address, which was repeatedly interrupted by applause and expressions of approval. The meeting was a remarkable contrast to Kern's meeting of a few nights apo. both in numbers and interest. Music was furnished by the Manilla Band and- a large glee club. -The Republicans here are terribly in earnest and will make large gains this year. Johnson Do Ins: Randolph County Special to the Indianapolis JournaL FARMLAND. Ind. Oct 13.-Hon. Henry U.

The feature was an address by a glass blower named Pemberton, who Is a recent acquisition to this country from England. His speech hit the nail on the head and drove It right home. He was at once booked for a speecn at Muncie. and he will likely be sent to Madison county and other places. He simply tells a story that he knows to be true.

Beveridge was present by invitation and spoke for an hour and a half. The evening previous Governor Matthews had spoken in the city, and Mr." Beveridge'sr speech took the shape of a reply, and it was a complete and easterly refutation of the Governor's speech and of every important argument made by him. Mr. Beveridge's talk was one of the best given here during this campaign, both as to the soundness of the argument and impressiveness of its delivery. Overstreet Slaking Friends. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. SPENCER, Ind., Oct 13. Hon. Jesse.

SAMPLES MAILED ON REQUEST. I. T. U. CONVENTION, Pressmen's Trouble Referred to a Committee The Child8Drexei Home. LOUISVILLE. Ky., Oct 13. When the International Typojrraphical Union convention assembled this morning it took up the pressmen's troubles.

When the doors were reopened the convention heard a communication from H. H. Fisher, of Corpus Chrlstl, Tex., and sworn to by him. Mr. Fisher was dismissed for "ratting." and he wanted to be reinstated, but the convention, refused to grant the-request. Officers were then installed. . A motion was next .made to take up the question of removing the headquarters from Indianapolis to Washington, but this was defeated. The convention then heard the report of the committee on the ChildsDrexel home, which was a long one, making many recommendations.

Horeb Church. PARIS, Ky., Oct 13. Col. W. C. P. Breckinridge has been suspended from communion by Mount Horeb Church, in Fayette county. The pastor of the church Rev. Charles Thompson, gives the Kentucky Citizen the following facts for its issue of to-day: On last Sunday morning, at the Mount Horeb Church, the pastor read publicly the action of the church concerning Col. W. C. P. Breckinridge, who had made to them a confession of his guilt, and asked the prayers and love of his brethren in leading a Christian life. The unanimous decision of the officers was that, while accepting his repentance as sincere and heartfelt, the great publicity of the sin demanded some public action, so he Was suspended from the sacraments till Feb. 1 1S9G. The law of the Presbyterian Book of Church Orders. Paragraph 158, is "definite suspension is administered when the credit of religipnt the hono of Christ and the good of the offender demanded it, even though he may have given satisfaction to the court" ALL ARE CUTTING KATES. None of the Chicago nnllraya UtIiik Up to Aftreed Freight Tariff. CHICAGO. Oct H The railways running east from Chicago are at their wits ends to devise some way by which they can maintain freight rates, or. rather, to hit upon a plan by which their competitors can be made to stick to the tariff sheets. They are all cutting rates and cutting them deeply. All classes of freight are Included ir the demoralization, and there seems to be no prospect that the lines will get together In such a way as to prevent the wholesale cutting which is going on. Chairman Blanchard. of the Central Trade Association, has issued several letters to the roads in his association, asking them to be more careful in the preservation of rates, but so far his appeals have met with no success whatever. There seems to be no soecial cause for the reductions, except that it has become the fashion and that no one road Is Trillin? to be tht first to allow its competitors to r-t tv tin era away from it The roads cf the Vcrttrn arrtr-tr Astociatio era rcrriz frr tncthrj mill

The association roa-.is have expostulated with the Texas line on several occasions and now some of them are declaring that there is no more necessity for waiting longer and they are di?pos-d to take active steps t3 meet the ratea of the Southern' line. The outcome of thU feeling may result in the establishment of the rates to the Pacific coast which the Illinois Central has been for some time anxious to put in via New Orleans. ' Ilcfuxed to Annwpr.
