The Board of Works is endeavoring to derise a plan, whereby the streets between the street car tracks ban be properly sprinkled thl- summer. , The street car company has been asked to prepare tank cars to be run by electricity for the purpose of sprlnklins the track. The most serious question in the way ef such an arrangement was the. price t whkjh the company could secure "water from the water compuny. Yesterday F. A. W. Davis, of the water company, appeared before the board and agreed to furnish water for this pur jvso at the same rate that Is paid by the regular city sprinklers, and said the company would erect pipes or put In mains wherever It was found necessary for the proper tilling of the tanks.

DENOUNCED AS A LIAR

A DHA.HATIC SCEXR BCRIXG THE PATTOS.SPADES DAMAGE SUIT. Plaintiff Attack Dr. J. S. Jordan, a Witness, Who Made Alleged Confidence Public. Tht largest crowd that has yet attended the trial listened to the evidence In the Spades damage suit yesterday. There were not more than a dozen, women In the curious audience. At 2 o'clock in the afternoon the crowd that surged about the doors of Room 2, Superior Court, threatened to tramp upon the bailiffs In Its effort to get Inside. When the doors were opened there was a disgraceful run for the chairs. Judge Harvey watched the precipitous rush from the bench and then gave the audience the benefit of hi observations. He ordered every man but of the ceurt room and Instructed those who could not come in decently - to leave the building. The occupants of the chairs reluctantly withdrew, and then sullenly filed back into the room. The proceedings , yesterday were Interrupted a somewhat dramatic incident. The trial was also characterized by the unusual spectacle of a physician making public the confidences of a client. It was through this violation of professional ethics that the court room for a time was turned over to Impromptu theatrics. At 2:30 'clock Joseph S. Jordan, who has an office on Washington street, was called to the witness stand by the defendant's attorneys. Jordan said that he was a physician. As he disclosed this fact he nervously stroked his flowing chestnut-colored beard. He kept a doctor's office' in the Griffith Block In March, 1894. During that month Grace Patton was one of his patients. He had seen her in his office, where she came with another young woman. Attorney Spaan examined the witness closely and concluded the examination by requesting him to detail a conversation which he claimed to have had with the girl. The doctor proceeded, but was suddenly Interrupted. The plaintiff, who sat with her mother a few feet from the witness, began to sob and quickly arose from her chair. Advancing a step in the direction of the witness box she screamed out: "That man is telling a lie." The girl's lawyers sprang toward her as she fell back in her chair and Jordan's long slender fingers again sought his wealth of bearti. The glrlls sobbings grew so loud that it "was impossible to proceed and Judare Harvey instructed her mother to take her from the room. Ex-Judge Cox, then took the witness in hand for cross examination. From an Empire Theater programme Containing a picture of the Doctor, the attorney secured some interesting points. The advertisement of the witness said that he was one of the most renowned physicians of the country- It recounted his wonderful cures of consumption, Bright' disease and other maladies that have long perplexed physicians of even higher standing. The play bill further announced that people came from all over the world to consult Doctor Jordan. "Is It possible that this is true. Doctor," questioned attorney Cox with deadly sarcasm, but before the witness could reply Attorney Spaan interrupted. "Mr. Cox, that is Empire Theater dramatics and I protest," exclaimed the attorney. "Oh, never mind, Mr. Spaan, we have a swift witness here and tf'll get along all right," retorted attorney Cox. Mr. Spaan appealed to the court. He thought that Mr. Cox had no right to call the witness "swift," but Judge Harvey declined to interfere. "I suppose," continued attorney Cox, "that people cannot find competent physicians in Chicago and New York and come to you? Am I right, Doctor?" The Doctor looked appealingly at Mr. Spaan and did not reply. Reading from the programme, the inquisitor continued: "Doctor, I have noticed that you have practiced in all the large hospitals in the country. Now, will you kindly name them?" The witness admitted that he attended one case at St. Vincent's and visited the City Hospital while taking lectures. This was the extent of his hospital practice. VI notice further that you have had great success in diseases of the lungs. Now, please tell me what, a disease of the lungs Is." ' . "Well, a disease rf the lungs is a disease of the lungs." "Good; now tell me how many diseases of the lungs there are." V "Some say there are three , and some four." "Yes, but we want the opinion of so eminent a physician as yourself." . "I think there are four." "Ah, I see: that's what has made you famous Is it?" The witness said that he was graduated from the Indiana Eclectic Medical College and the Beach Medical Institute. When asked where tho latter Institution was. located he replied that "it had quit." He belonged to the State Medical Society, but said ''he did not know where it was located." "Did vou ever hear of professional ethics, Doctor?" queried the attorney. "Yes, I know what it is." "And yet you claim to have treated this girl professionally and then come here in court and tell it. Do you call that professional ethics?" . The witness attempted to excuse his action. lie said that he came into court against his will, and that the secret had "leaked" out somewhere. August Meier, who admitted that he had been sent to the workhouse for various offenses, testified as to the moral character of the plaintiff hefore she went to work in the Windsor Block. In his opinion the character of the girl was unsavory. He related an incident in the life of the plaintiff to support his assertion. On cross-examination the witness admitted that Mr. Cox, the brother-in-law of M. H. Spades, called at the rubber mill, where he was employed, some time ago and got him to go to attorney Rookers office. There he made an affidavit bearing on the moral character of the plaintiff. "Isn't it a fact," asked attorney Cox, "that you recently told a man named William Pellate that you were going to testify agaln3t this girl and get $75 for it?" "No. sir, I never said it," replied the witness. Judge Harvey permitted the introduction of the deposition of Charles H. Tilghman, stepfather of Grace Frances Patton, Tilghman lives In Cincinnati. He separated from his wife some months ago. He testified that when he was with the family they lived at No. 200 East Washington street, over Peter Conway's saloon. His daughter Grace, he said, was in the habit of leaving home a great deal. Sometimes she would be gone a week. He once accompanied her to IJneola Park, where she drank a great deal of beer and seemed pretty intimate with a barber named Morrison. The deponent admitted that his wife and stepdaughter ised bad language at times when addressing each other. Being pressed closely as to the character of the lodgings kept by his wife over Conway's saloon, Tilghman remembered that on one occasion a railroad detective named "Brady" or "Grady" had occupied one of the rooms with a woman. M. H. Spades, the defendant, will be the last witness on the stand. WAGNER'S GREATEST OPERA. Conatnntln Sternberg; Give nn Admirable Lecture ou "Parsifal. One of the musical treats of the season was the lecture on "Parsifal," with illustrations by stereopticon and piano, given last evening at the Propylaeum by ' Mr. Constantln Sternberg. Mr. Sternberg began his lecture by giving a short sketch of Richard Wagner, the composer. He said that Wagner had been a martyr, that he had suffered all that man could heap upon him and like the phoenix, had risen from the ashes of this contumely. He said Wagner had great love. Not the iove of the summer novel, not even that love of father for a child, but the great Christian love of which Christ said, "Love one another." His transcendent genius was shown jn his works, but in none, perhaps, more than in the "Parsifal." Mr. Sternberg gave a com plete recital of the opera. A description of the story of the opera, which is founded on the Holy Grail, was accompanied by the pictures of the different scenes shown with the stereopticon. The audience felt as Cardinal Newman once expressed himself after seeing the opera: "I feel as If I had attended a great religious service." The opera impresses one with its amplitude and its marvelous interpretation. Its great and noble theme is wrought out on lines not understood - in their breadth, except when under the spell of the whole. At the conclusion of what might be termed the literary feature, Mr. Sternberg gave bits of the opera in music on the piano. When, he heard the opera in Bayr$uth there

were 128 instruments In the orchestra and the orchestra was sunk below the stage. ,In hearing it, he said, one loses the idea of individuals or performers and becomes entirely in spirit with the subject. In presenting the music the imagination of the hearer was asked. Mr. Sternberg, a fine player, comprehends the power of the music and shows with as skillful a hand as is possible with the single instrument. The several motifs which represent ti e leading parts of the opera were played separately and then in conjunction with that which is written to accompany them, so that every one could intelligently comprehend the music. The majestic final, where Parsifal returns to the temp'n? with the sword, was most solemn and impressive. The evening was one rich with thought and suggestion and gave a broader and better idea of Wagner and his opera than Indianapolis people can have in any other way, except by going to Beyreuth, for in order to hear the opera one will have to go there for the next eighteen years. This evening Mr. and Mrs. Leckner will entertain a few of their musical friends informally for Mr. Sternberg, who is their guest. ' PKICES MUST GO UP

WIXDOW GLASS MAXIFACTI'KERS SAY THEY MAKE AO PROFIT. Thirty-One of Them Meet In Thl City Advance or n. Shut Down Inevitable. r "drty-one manufacturers of windowglass were at the Bates House yesterday to consider the Interests of the trade. The price of glass continues very low, buyers admit, and is fully ten points below the normal price at which there can be profit. The results of the meeting were kept a profound secret, but It leaked out that the window glass association has determined either to raise prices or close down. To close down, however, means a large loss- and to continue at present prices means a little loss every day. Some of the members said that the only thing left to do was to raise prices so as to pass the margin where profit begins. Another meeting will be held April 15, at Pittsburg, and a shut-down or decided advance is expected about May 1. It is said the situation has reached a point where the interest of one is seen to be the common interest of the business and that every time they meet the members "get closer together," as one member expressed it. The former attempt to unite upon a stiff price admitting of profit was defeated, it is said, by the Hartford City Company, but at this meeting the Hartford City people were the first to arrive and are ready to join in the movement. Eastern manufacturers are apparently not so confident of further amalgamation. A dispatch from Pittsburg last night said that prominent manufacturers connected with the National Window Glass Manufacturers Association announced yesterday that at the meeting of the association in Pittsburg the combination would probably be broken. One of the Pittsburg manufacturers stated that the chances against the organization were ten to one. It is said the formation of the combination has advanced prices enough to put the glass business on a sound footing and some of the larger' concerns now want to operate independently. The new plate glass trust Is to meet there Friday and complete the details of the organization. The Standard plant at Butler, Pa., will not come into the trust. ENDED THEIR TRIBULATIONS. Scliofield Tliornton Had Xo Wife and Was Permitted to Marry Edith Clay. Schofield Thornton and Edith Bertha Clay, who were arrested last Saturday night in a house on South Tennessee street, were married yesterday evening in the county jail. Justice John W. Sears united the couple at the request of W. H. Ripley, attorney for the woman. The latter is about twenty years of age, and is good looking and neat in appearance. Thornton is twenty-three. The couple were arrested on the charge of maintaining improper relations, and yesterday morning were arraigned in PoU?e Court. Judge Stubbs postponed the case until this morning. While in Police Court the prisoners expressed the desire to unite their fortunes by legal ceremony, but Judge Stubbs declined to permit the marriage until an investigation of Thornton's affairs could be made. He suspected that Thornton already had a wife, and did not want the girl, apposed upon. Attorney Ripley looked up the case, and after satisfying himself that the young man was sincere in his desire to make the woman his wife, arranged for the ceremony. Thornton is an Englishman ,and lives at Toronto, Canada. He says he was born in England. He is a musician and has been connected with the Irving Brothers' Circus. He says he has an offer to travel with Barnum next year. The girl's home Is in Louisville, -but for two years she has been employed in a restaurant in this city. Thornton says they have been engaged for a long time. AMERICAN MEDICAL COLLEGE. First Commencement Exercise of the Sew School Held. The first commencement of the new American Medical College, the new medical college in this city whose professors are made up from all schools, and whose teaching is claimed to be broad and along the same line, was held last night at the college, 28 Indiana avenue. Rev. L. L. Turney, of Greenwood, offered prayer, and ex-Supreme Judge R W. McBrlde delivered an ad dress on "Law and Medicine," outlining the efforts made by the law in this State to raise the standard of medicine, and showing forth the shortcomings in the same. Rev. Dr. Coultas. of Roberts Park Church, then followed with an extemporaneous oration on the unity of man in all his avocations and life. Judge P. W. Bartholomew also made an address elucidating the importance of wiping out all stickling for ethics when a human life was In danger and it could be preserved by immediate action. Dr. C. T. Ball, of Terre Haute, president of the faculty, presided and presented the diplomas, and Dr. R. C. Kelsy, the faculty secretary, was general director. Choice vocal and instrumental, music was interspersed between the audresses. The graduates could not be many for a new college, as the new law requires three years' attendance at a medical college. The only actual graduate was Miss Lizzie E. Hazelton, of this city, who had attended two years at another college. The ad eundern degree was conferred upon C. E. Barnum, M. D., C. A. Hanable. M. D., E. C. Smith, M. D., and W. B. Clarke, M. D . S. ' E. Xicholson's Dates. The campaign to be made by the Good Citizenship League, of Indianapolis, will begin April 7, at New Castle.

PAID UP LOAN STOCK

IMPORTANT ORAL ARGCMEXT IX SUPREME COCRT TO-DAY. Snlt to Keep Sach Stock OS Tax Dnpllcate What Attorney-General Will Do. An oral argument will take place in the Supreme Court to-morrow on the subject of taxation of building and loan stock of prepaid or paid-up character. There are two cases, one entitled Dennison, Auditor, vs. Terry, and the other is in the form of a criminal procedure, in which the State, on the part of the prosecuting attorney, brings an action against Brackett, who is charged with making a false return of property in the omission of some paid-up stock. Both cases come up from Fulton county, , The civil suit Is against the auditor to restrain him from placing on the duplicate the assessment of certain paid-up stock as omitted property. The holders of the stock contend that the statutes exempt such stock; second, that, they did not receive the legal five days' notice, and third, that the county assessor knew as much about the stock before the Board of Review met as he did afterwards. The only question the State is interested in is the constitutionality of the act of 1891 and of the building and loan law of 18S7, under which; all property belonging to a building and loan association is relieved of assessments, except the overplus receipts from shareholders in excess of amounts loaned out. Attorney-general Ketcham will argue the case wherever the State's interests are at stake. He said yesterday that under the law it is entirely possible, without trickery or subterfuge, for an association to have its stock paid up to within one cent of the capital stock and altogether escape -taxation. The argument and the decision becomes of interest, because, since the Legislature adjourned, there has been such a rush of idle capital into building and loan associations as was never known before, and it is quite possible that some of it is placed in these organizations only until the assessor calls, so as to escape taxation for the year. Xew Convict Law Unpopular. Warden French has not yet drawn his monthly maintenance fund for the support of the prison north and it is probable there will be an agreement between the warden and the Auditor of State so that the former .will waive any advantage that might accrue to him from this quasi recognition. It 13 the position of the State commission that Mr. French is no longer warden. The southern prison board not having yet been appointed no objection of any kind was made last Saturday when Warden Patton drew his regular monthly maintenance. Both wardens gay that the law requiring sheriffs to deliver prisoners to the county seat from which they were sent is very unpopular among the prisoners, many of whom do not live in the county in which they received their sentences. The intention of the law being to send the prisoners back to their homes it is probable the law will come to be so construed, it is said, and that prisoners may be returned to any county in which they lived when convicted. Law Respecting Prison-Made Goods. Secretary of State Owen has received letters from some of the superintendents of penal institutions In other States in reference to the Schneck law requiring dealers in prison-made goods from other States to take out , a license costing 300. They say that such a law In New York and Ohio was declared unconstitutional because it interferes with . interstate commerce. The Indiana statute is very mu9h similar to the statutes of these States, which it followed very closely. Room 112 for the G. A. IU Department Commander H. B. Shlveley, of the G. A. R., has definitely announced that the department headquarters will remain in this city. The Legislature set apart one of the rooms in the Statehouse for the use of the department, and the custodian has placed it in shape. It is room No. 112. Commander Shlveley has reappointed' R. M. Smock assistant adjutant-general and O. R, Weaver assistant quartermaster-general. INDIANA HOTEL KEEPERS. Terry J. Cnllen Elected President at First Annual Meeting.

Baehman, for the Indianapolis Desiccating Company, yesterday signed the letter, mentioned yesterday, giving the city an option on the company's plant at $13,000, or the actual cost, less any profit the company may have derived from the business. This places the city in a position that it can negotiate with the New York company, which has made an offer, through Dr. Hays, to chemically treat all the garbage andA night soil of this city without cost, depending upon the residue fertilizer for its profit. The terms have been practically agreed upon whereby the contract wnn Air. Jameson, for hauling the city garbage, will be canceled, although . the contract has not yet been signed. Dozen Men and One Woman. The examination for internes at the hospitals and the. City Dispensary was continued yesterday in the Council chamber. There were twelve men and one woman taking the examinations, one rran having dropped out of the contest before the examinations began Monday morning. Their names are: J. H. Clark. Charles E.

and paving the walks with brick of Hazel street from LawTence street to Bloyd avenue. The Board of imblic Works yesterday contracted for two lots on Beville avenue, half way between Michigan and Ohio streets, at $900. The two lots have .seventy feet front on BevilleX; avenue and 137 feet on a cross alley. The following resolutions were adopted, there being no remonstrance presented: Widening Raymond street from Shelby street to Madison avenue to a width of fifty feet; vacating Seventeenth street from the first alley west of Yandes street to the first alley east of Forest avenue; opening Eighth street from Mississippi street to the first alley west. A GAME NEXT SUNDAY

THIS IS OX THE SCHEDILE, BIT MR. WATKIXS IS XOT TALKIXG MICH. Work on the Sunday Park, Opposite the Fair Ground, I Under Way. There is a game scheduled for this city next Sunday afternoon between the Indianapolis and Cincinnati ball clubs to be played at the park opposite the fair grounds, but President Watklns is not ready yet to say just what the club will do. The directors of the club did not meet yesterday, and Mr. Watkins was not ready to state his position as he thought he would be able to do. Work has b?en progressing at the Sunday park for several days and a considerable part of the big fence has been put up. Superintendent of Police Powell wa asked some time ago what he would do in case the club attempted to play Sunday ball, but he declined to anticipate any action of the club, ca'ling attention, however, to the law. which is very plain on the subject. The new park is not in Center township, but the police are inclined to believe they have powers under the new four-mile limit law. The eame scheduled for yesterday be tween the Grand Avenues and the Indianapolis club was declared off on account of the condition of the grounds and the chilling atmosphere, but the weather prom- . vT, fnr- tn-Aav Tho Herancourts are booked for a game this afternoon,, and their captain says tney wiu pui p game for the professionals.

Some of the men put in a few hours yesieraay in exerciauis, u". playing was attempted on account of the grounds. Cross is very enthusiastic in the preparatory work. Yesterday he ran about three miles within the grounds and then went into the sweat box and was thoroughly steamed for a halt hour. He says the rigid discipline is doing him considerable good and Mr. Watkins thinks his playing shows the effect of his hard exercise. In regard to McFarland the manager thinks he has one of the best, if not the best, catcher in the Western League. He was one of the first men selected by Manager Comiskev, of Cincinnati, last fall on receiving instructions from President . Brush, of the Cincinnati club, to pick out a team for the season. When Buck Ewlng took charge of the Cincinnati team he found five catchers on the list and released the ones whom he thought the weakest, but Watkins thinks his judgment was bad and the strongest man was really released. 1XTERSTATB LE,AGLE DATES.

After the reading of the minuter the subject of presenting a woman to fill one, of the vacancies to occur on the School Board was presented. It was finally decided to appoint a committee of three to consult with men, who are wise in such matters, as to the advisability of such action. The committee named by the chair will be Mrs. H. B. Holman, chairman, Mrs. T. C. Day and Mrs. George Merritt. The outline of the programme of the council for the annual meeting, which will be held on the 22d and 23d of this month at the Propylaeum, was read. This programme will open Monday afternoon. The German Literary Club, the Clio and the Woman's Club of Irvington. the societies of the Second and Sixth Presbyterian churches and the Bible Society, the Flower Mission, the Union Veteran .

D. C, by Mrs. J. R. Nichols. The new officers will also be presented. Mrs. John M. Spann read a report of the Home for Friendless Women, and asked for the assistance and interest of the women of the council. Mrs. Spann told of the women who had been helped by the home. During the twenty-eight years it has been organized over three thousand women and girls have had shelter there. The wine rooms are considered responsible for the condition of the young girls who are brought to the home for care. Mrs. H. M. Bronson reported for St. Margaret's Society of St. Paul's Church. This society has taken shares in a building and loan association, amounting to $2,100, for the new parish house which is in course of erection. The sanitary report was read by the secretary, Mrs. Robertson. The society will cooperate with the park commissioners and with the Health Board. It is hoped the city will have a hospital for contagious diseases and a new pesthouse. Help was asked in supporting the Rescue Home, which has been abandoned by the W. C. T. U. associations, and which has been taken up by Mrs. Potter alone. Mrs. Josephine R. Nichols will assist Mrs. Potter and will receive any contributions. The council will urge the appointment of a jail matron, the bill authorizing such an appointment having been passed by the recent Legislature, through the efforts of Mrs. Buchanan, the police matron. A resolution was offered to urge the city officials who have appointments to make to make them regardless of sex, but no one took enough interest in this equal suffrage idea to carry it through, and It was lost. .
