Ttto Arrest Made Out of Tonn-Care-leaaneas of Oirners. . At police headquarters there is a long liat of names of persons who have had bicycles stolen this season, with a de acrlptlon of the property. Most of these cases are due to the carelessness of people in leaving their wheels on the streets unlocked. The department has been fairly to be on the lookout for stolen bicycles, but a majority are recovered out of town. Dealers In the smaller towns have learned to be on a lookout for stolen bicycles, and when a machine is offered them at a low price, they Immediately make Inquiries of Indianapolis dealers.

At the South-Side Clnb. The weekly meeting of the South-side Republican Club, last night, was fairly well attended, though the two -epeikera announced, Messrs. Hanna and McGregor, were not present. Speeches were heard from Mr. Galvin, Judge Stubbs and Newton "M. Taylor, who yesterday announced himself as a candidate for police Judge. Judge Stubbs made an earnest appeal for harmony in party ranks, whether a candidate had been as loyal to the party in the past as he should have been or not. He instanced the Democratic party as one In which those who have run off after false gods would be welcomed back if they came in time for. election day, and said it is a wise party policy. lie expressed great faith in the success of the Republican ticket. An AildreuM for Chnrches. An address to the religious people of the city in the interest of a continuance of the present municipal policy of enforcing the laws has been printed and will be distributed at the - midweek services for worship to-night. The address sets forth the necessity of the law-abiding taking an interest in-the primaries and the selections of delegates. - Political Aotes. W. D. "Wilson has announced himself as a Republican candidate for councilman from the Thirteenth ward. James T. Smith will be a Democratic candidate for the nomination for councilman from the Fourteenth ward. There was considerable talk among the active party men last night In favor of Arch Young, now in the Council from the Third ward, as one of the candidates for councilman at large. Other candidates spoken of are Messrs. Cooper, Krauss, Drew, Rauh, Stott and T. K. Potter. Warwick Ripley's name will be presented to the convention for police Judge by friends. Air. Rlploy, however, says that he has refrained from being a candidate because of the obligation upon him as president of. the county Lincoln League of Republican clubs to keep aloof from convention contests. He is, however, "a receptive candidate. SWEEPING FOR 1896 BOARD OP WOllKS IS V R FIP All I X G THE NEW SPCIFICATIOXS. Aveme to the Constant Sprinkling of Pared Streets Proposed Sale of the Dlspensnrr Site. The Board of Public Works is preparing new specifications for the sweeping and sprinkling contracts, which expire Nov. 4. Bids for one year and three years will be advertised for and. If possible, the board will accept the long term contracts. The board is averse to the constant sprinkling of paved streets and yesterday communicated with the city attorney concerning the matter. It is believed by the board that the heavy sprinkling will eventually result in damage to the pavements. If it can be done . the '.board will Insist that the new contracts 1 provide for . a sweeping thorough enough to clean the streets without sprinkling. It may be necessary for the Council to solve the Question. A bicyclist who has occasion to ride up North Illinois street every day says tnat the street in front of Mr. Overman's home causes more annoyance than any other section, by reason or the hired man's ambition to earn his salary in sprinkling the asphalt. MR. BOI1LEX VOLt'XTEEIlED. , Has Apparently Ceased Ills AVorlc at Tomllnson Hnll. Complaint was made yesterday to the Board of Works that Architect Bohlen, who was to superintend the Interior decorations of Tomllnson Hall, had declined to have anything further to do with the work. The board wrote to Mr. Bohlen and asked him to explain hi position in- the matter so that there would be no delay. Architect Bohlen volunteered his services to the board and was accepted some weeks ago. His father drew up the design for the hall and it was understood trat in offering hi3 services gratuitous the son was moved by a spirit of pride In the work that his father originally planned. The board is at loss to understand nis action, but it is reported that he is not tatlsfle with the manner in which the contract for the painting was awarded. IXSFECTIOX TO BE RIGID. Works nonrtl Will Look After the Meridian-Street Pavement. The Browder & Shover Paving; Company suggested to the Board of Works that a man be sent to the company's mills, in the State of Washington to inspect the cedar block which is to be put down on Meridian street.-, between St. Clair and Seventh streets, and yesterday tne board wrote to the cenpany that thq city would send out an inspector If the contractors would pay all of the expenses of the trip. The board will also demand assurance that the visH of an inspector to the company's mills will In no way affect the Inflection of the blocks after they have been placed in the street. President Holton ftys that the final Inspection will be a rigid one and the members of the board will probably do it themselves. XO ADJtSTMEXT IX SIGHT. Differences Detvreen the City nnd Amerlrnn lied net ion. Company. The Board of Tublic Works has despaired of adjusting the differences between the city -and the American Reduction Company. The peculiar attitude of the company's agent Tuesday led the board to believe, that his people did not mean business and did net desire to n.ake a garbage contract. Mayor Denny has hopes that when Agent Campbell returns to New York r.i.d has a talk with the members of the company an adjustment may be had of t'e trouble. John L. Griffiths, attorney for the Amorlean Reduction Company, says thlt a misunderstanding arose over the disposition of the night soil and he thinks the board got wrong impressions, wfcrb it vas difficult to correct. IX THE BOARD'S JtRISDICTIOX. Judge Harvey Utiles In the Central-. Avenue Improvement Case. Judge Harvey yesterday refused to grant an Injunction In favor of certain property owners on Central avenue, . who wanted the Board of Works enjoined from improving the street In the manner already determined upon. The court held that the case was not one that properly came bofore It, since the Board of Works had acted within the proper sphere of Its discretion. APmOVES THE PROPOSED SALE. llonrd of Health Anxious for a New Dispensary Ilnlldlnu;. At a meeting of the City Board of Health yesterday it was decided to approve the contemplated pale of the City Dispensary property on East Ohio street. However, the Board of Health will demand that the proceeds from the sale be applied ttward the purchase tit a new cite nnd will require the Board of Public Works to sell the building at public auction or upon competitive bids submitted. 31.

THE BIBLE'S CRITICS
rnor. srcARvteY devotes axotheu LECTURE TO THEM. State Missionary Society's Annual Convention Concludes with Election of Officers Services at Acton. The State Missionary Society of the Chris- 1 tian Church concluded its annual convention yesterday afternoon at Bethany Park. The convention had been In sesion three days this week. The officers for the ensuing year, as reported by the nominating committee yesterday afternoon, are: A. M. Hootman, Union City, president; G. W. Clark, Indianapolis, secretary, and Amos Clifford, Indianapolis, treasurer. The nominating committee was composed of J. W. Coombs, Robert Sellers and A. S. Connor. A. H. Morris, as chairman of the committee on reports, made a report Indorsing the report of E. B. Schofield, corresponding secretary. The report alo recommended that a closer relationship be drawn between the various missionary organizations of the State; that the first Sunday in October of each year be observed throughout the State as Indiana Missionary day, and that the State evangelist immediately take steps to revive the Christian churches at Brooklyn and Centerton, which are both almost within the shadow of Bethany Park. The final address of the convention was delivered by L. E. Murray, of Ladoga, on "Indiana Missionary Day." To-day promises' to be one of the busiest days of the assembly. It Is to be Foreign Missionary day, and there are ten addresses to be delivered during the day and evening. F. M. Rains, of Cincinnati, is expected to be president of the day. The attendance at the morning lectures of President McGarvey, of Kentucky University, on the "Bible's Account of Itpelf," increases each day. The lecture delivered yesterday morning , was really 'a continuation of the lecture delivered on Tuesday, dealing with the evidence given by Christ as to the authorship of the Pentateuch, which is the great point of disputation among the critics of the Bible. Ine speaker proceeded to take up the more conservative critics of today, who profess to believe that Jesus had no more supernatural knowledge than the wise men of His day. Tnese men say that simply connecting a certain man's name to a book does not necessarily mean that it is believed that that hian wrote the book. They say that people do not believe that a man called Junius. wrote the letters credited to him, for. In that age it would have been dangerousfor.the real author's name to have been made known. Therefore they argue that simply because Jesus connected the name of Moses to the Pentateuch Is no reason for believing that He knew that Moses wrote It. ".Now," said Mr. McGarvey, "that sounds plausible. The people believed that Moses was the author of the book, and, of course, when Jesus quoted from It as from Moses they took it for granted that he believed as tney did. Now, If Jesus did not believe that Moses was the author of the book be was basely deceiving the people. To be sure, the more radical critics would not object to that. They believe that Jesus was merely human apd that he might nave stooped to a little deception like that.J'Dr. Briggs, in his "Biblical Study," written ten or, fifteen years ago, said that if this evidence presented by Jesus to the effect that Moses was the author of the Pentateuch be brought forward young men would 'cease to believe in Jesus. Now, the trouble with Dr. Bv:ggs was that he was so well satisfied with his own theories concerning the authorship of the first five books of the Bible that he was afraid to have the evidence of Jesus presented, for fear that it would offset his own arguments. 'These critics further assert that, even though Moses might have given the numerous laws to which Jesus 'referred as having come from Moses, 3-et these laws might not have been -written down by him. They say that the Pentateuch might have been written a thousand years later, and these laws put Into It. Now, - that is possible, and If the laws cited by Jesus and credited to Moses were all that had to rely upon, I fear our argument tn'ght not stand. But it did not stop there. Jesus went on to state that the books really - came from Moses. In numerous places He speaks authoritatively of the 'Book of Moses,' which referred to the Pentateuch, as it was not at that time divided into the five books as we now have it. He asked the people If they had not read of the'burninz bush in the 'Book of Moses,' and in' various other places in the gospels He uses the same expression." At 11 o'clock President McGarvey again occupied the platform, delivering the assembly lecture. His lecture was on "The Story of Jonah," and was devoted to proving the truthfulness ot 1 that so frequently doubted story. He stated that the story of Jonah is more often made the butt of ridicule of unbelievers, and is more often the stumblng block of weaklings, than any other Bible story. There are also a great many persons who believe the Bible, but who say that that story was invented to teach a lesson, :but was never meant to be told as an actual fact. The speaker said that If he were told the story of a man being cast Into the sea, swallowed up by a whale, and, after three days, being cast on the shore; of going into a great city and having all the Inhabitants fall on their faces and crying out to him; of living in a shanty where there was no shade, and of a great vine growing up In the night, that he would not be inclined to believe any of them. But he then went on to relate all the Incidents contained In the story of Jonah and how each incident worked some part of the will of God. He told of Jonah trying to escape from the Lord and his miraculous return, and how that story affected'the people. The story-preceded him to the Ninevites and helped to bring them to repentance. Theny-when the Lord made a gourd vine to grow over Jonah's small shanty to protect him from the sun, and again destroyed it in a single night. Jonah became anry, and the Lord appearsd to him and told him that He was the God of ail the world and not alone of the twelve tribes of Israel, and that He had compas. slon on the Ninevltes, who were even Idolators. Jonah went and preached this wonderful doctrine to all peoples, and another great thing was accomplished. Mr. McGarvey intended' to prove by all these parts of the story of Jonah that so much was accomplished by the working out of the storv that it was impossible that such a story had been invented simply to illustrate a certain point, but was rather a fact. 1 PRESIDIXG ELDERS MEET. Features of the Day at Acton Arrangements of Districts. Late yesterday afternoon, at Acton, there was a meeting at the hotel of the presiding elders of the consolidated conference, to consider some legal questions, to arrange for the publications of the minutes, and to attend to the appointment of some conference committees. There was a consultation with regard to the arrangement of the districts, but no definite action was taken. The evening song service was made more attractive by the solo of Mr. Nlckerson, "Savious, Hear Me." Dr. Coultas led the devotions, and Dr. Heavenridge, Vincennes, preached from Romans viii, 16: "The Spirit Itself beareth witness with our spirit that we are the children of God." The Doctor said the sermon would be a sort of running commen upon the whole chapter.' To study the Scriptures understandlngly, people should seek to know the circumstances under which a given passage was written, said the speaker. "The seeker knowing the law cries out, 'Who shall deliver me'!' but as he catches a glimpse of Christ upon the cross he realizes the release the law could not give and eecclaims 'There is now no condemnation to them who walk not after the flesh.' This Is the experience of every converted soul. The apostle speaks of two laws, one of sin and death and the law of life in Jesus. The tendency is to break law when it is known to be forbidden. The child naturally wants to do that which It Is told it must not do. "A man never sees so far Into any question that he is not anxious to see a little further Mother Eve may have passed by the tree with the rortiuaen truit a tnousand times without thinking of it had God not said, Of that tree thou shalt not eat.' Sin is the rtiitPTOwth rf violated law. and ChHsf t tha only propitaticn for such sln. Change of purpose is 1101 tuinci?wn. o man can find Justification by. keeping a broken law. The law that protects a man becomes his enemy when he violates It, and he must suffer the penalty before he can walk forth acquitted. How the spirit bears witness cannot be demonstrated. A strain of music l (nrtrrihah1(. A sunbeam rannnt hs painted: it may be represented. Mind operates upon matter, but by what process? LAie comes tnrougn ueam. victory mrougn trial, and rest after toll. The way to glory lies through conflict and trial. very saloon, keeper wants to die the death of the
righteous. Men think they would like to go to heaven Just as they live In their fins, but such men would not be there twentyfour hours till they would ask to be let out, for they would be out of harmony with their surroundings." An Invitation was then given to engage In an altar service, which was responded to by the larger part of the congregation. Miss Taylor led this service, after which Dr. Heavenridge asked to shake hands with everybody. To-day Is the last day of the convention of presiding elders, and Dr. H. J. Talbott is to preach at 2 o'clock. To-morrow and Saturday are Chautauqua days. Dr. Sims Is to give his lecture on "The Morning Star of the Reformation." FROM OXE PMSOX TO ANOTHER.
Thomas J. Artx, nn Indiana Convict, to Be Taken to Illinois. A requisition from the Governor of Illinois for Thomas J. Artz was honored by Governor Matthews yesterday. it is claimed that Artz committed a burglary at Danville. 111., two years ago and then came to this State, where he robbed a store at Terre Haute. He was sentenced to two years' Imprisonment for this - cffense. His term will expire to-day. The sheriff of Vigo county will take him back to Terre Haute, where he will be released and immediately rearrested by a deputy from Illinois. TWO MEN IN CUSTODY ARRESTS MADE IX COXXECTION WITH THS2 GEDIIARD CASE. Ridiculous State of Affairs Among; the Sleuths of Went IndlnnapolU AVyatt nnd Donbar'i Statements. For at least ten hours Mrs. Hannah Gebhard, mother of the murdered West Indianapolis child, has been questioned, quizzed and cross-examined by policemen, constables, detectives and the coroner, and not one word of damaging testimony has been given by her. Since Mrs. Gebhard arrived in the city Tuesday afternoon she had not had one quiet hour. She was taken' in charge by Mrs. Parry, wife of the . West Indianapolis marshal, and questioned by three or four persons at the Parry home. The same night Chief Splan talked to her. Yesterday morning she was taken ' before Coroner Castor and examined at len&th. Yesterday afternoon she was again before the coroner. West Indianapolis officers and private detectives called at the home cf a friend where she is stopping. It is said by a few detectives that Mrs. Gebhard, while before the coroner, became confused once or twice. Yet at all times she has apparently told as best she could of her child's disappearance, and those who expected to learn from her something which would direct them in ferreting out the case are woefully, disappointed. Mrs. Gebhard said at the coroner's examination that on the fatal morning of little Ida's disappearance she was busy with her household duties. Ida was dressed about 7 o'clock. Then the ciild helped the mother in carrying some freshly ironed clothes to a bureau drawer. The mother's attention was drawn to something else. She looked out and saw Ida playing in the street. Mrs. Gebhard brought her child in the house, but she does not remember haring whipped her for running away. Anyway, Ida was missing again in a short time, and the search for her was .commenced. The neighbors were aroused and the police were notified. The mother spent much time that day In worry, and she cried as any other mother would haye done. Mrs. Gebhard was a3ked how little Ida was dressed that morning, and she said: "She had on a light Mother Hubbard. It had some red paint on It. . It did not all wash out. There was braid on the dress and a white ruffle. She wore a blue straw hat with a blue band on It. There was a little flower in the dress. She had on button shoes. The sole on one was torn away at the toe. She had elastics on the stockings to hold them up, and these were buttoned to her gauze chemise. She had on drawers of Shaker flannel. The drawers were yellow, with fine white stripes in them. She had no skirt or petticoat. There was a little red flower in the dress." "Are these the clothes," nsked the coroner, laying the clothes found In jthe box with the body before Mrs. Gebhard,, The latter covered her face with her hands, wept some and shuddered. Then she said: "I am sure these are the clothes she had on." . , , There was a .enewed Interest in the case at West Indianapolis yesterday, and many wild rumors were afloat. A half dozen persons were alleged to have made a confession during the day, and excitement ran high. The private detectives tolled and dug around in the alleys, , wells and barns, attempting to get a clew. At least a dozen residents of the town have turned detectives, and they are at work, each after the $500 reward offered for the ar rest of the child's murderer. TWO ARRESTS MADE. Fank Dunbar, living on Woodburn avenue, next door to the Gebhard home, was arrested yesterday upon a warrant sworn out by officer Hughes, alleging him to be an accessory to a crime. The only evidence there is against Dunbar is that he owns a white horse. A man who is identified by the name of "Mike", told the officers that upon the morning following the child's disappearance he saw a white horse hitched to a buggy drive up the. aUi ley in the rear of the stable where the body was found. A man's knees could be seen in the buggy, and they looked like Dunbar's knees. So fine has . the description been drawn that the buggy to which the horse was hitched belonged to officer Wooc. The latter says his stable is locked at all times, and it would be Impossible to jret the buKgry without his consent. At the time Dunbar's horse was supposed to have been used it was so lame that it could not have been driven: that is what a blacksmith and Dunbar say. The horse was also staked on a common that night, and witnesses say it was there as late as midnight, and it was there In the morning. At 3 o'clock Sunday morning Dunbar says he arose to go to milk cows at the Abattoir, ps he has been granted that privilege. He took with him his son-in-law, Robert Wyatt, who is also under arrest. Last night Dunbar was released on $2,000 bond. He has employed an attorney, and after a hearing he proposes to sue the town for false arrest and Imprisonment. Dunbar has been one of the most active workers on the case since the child disappeared. He searched diligently to find her, and when the body was found he was on the ground aiding the officers all he could. Robert Wyatt is a son-in-law of Dunbar's and lives with him. He was brought here from Danville, for which place he departed last Thursday or Friday. He was seen standing around the corner of River and Woodburn avenues upon the night the child disappeared. He was detailed to keep the crowd back from the stable at the time the body was found, but Is alleged to have fled. He Is of an excitable nature, and his story does not coincide exactly with that given by Dunbar. He says the family did not arise upon that Sunday morning uptil 5 o'clock. yatt says he left Indianapolis for Danville upon last Friday, while Dunbar thinks it was Thursday. Wyatt went to Danville, where he had work promised him, and he was found working in a macmne snop. .-urs. Dunbar is In a serious condition because of the arrest of her husband. Last Fnlay she became a mother, but the arrest has caused her to suffer a relapse. There is danger of a Rreat injustice being done some one by the zeal of those at work unon the case. Each one Is after the reward and each has a clew. Each is afraid that some other will get ahead of him. and each is anxious to get his suspected party in Jail berore some one else catches the clew. The two police forces of the town are .working against each other, and neither will give the other the benefit of any information. The thought of the reward overshadows any other motive in capturing the murderer. The two forces are working in a cut-throat sort of fashion, and because of the zeal no one is above suspicion. 1 "Why Coomhu-nenlKned. . John W.

He presented a strong petition lor executive clemency.
NO DOUBLE TAXATION
STATE HOARD QUICKLY DISMISSES OXU PART OP AX APPEAL. A Case Involving Assessment of State Dank Stock Teleicrah and nxprens Company Values. There was a case of great interest to the holders of stock In all banks except national before the Board of Tax Commissioners yesterday. It involves the right of holders of such stock to lit it before credits on account of debts owing by them are claimed and allowed. The question is in a three-sided appeal from the action pf the Hoard of Review of Owen county in the assessment of the property of Inman H. Fowler. Vina H. Fowler and Frank H. Freeland. Inman H. Fowler owns 190 shares of stock of the Capitol State Rank of Spencer and claims credits on account of debts to the amount of $11,140. Vina H. Fowler owns forty-five shares, with, credits to the amount of $320. Freeland owns twenty shares, of the par value of $2,000, and claims credits to the amount of $2,600, leaving nothing to be assessed! ' The county assessor assessed this stock to the Individuals under Item 6 In the personal property credits schedule, and at the same time it was assessed against the owners of it in the list made out by. the bank in accordance with the law, which requires that all banks shall furnish the township assessor a list of their stockholders and the amount of stock held by each, which amounts shall be assessed against the Individuals In the township in which the bank is located. When the matter came before the County Board of Review it held that the stock must be listed by the township assessor from the list furnished by the bank, and. that the Individuals could claim no deductions on account of debts they might be owing; also, that when the stock was listed in this way. It could not be listed against the bank, for that would be double taxation. The assessor appealed from this decision, holding that the stock should be listed to the bank and also to the Individual, and the individuals appealed, holding that their stock should be listed" before their deductions of debts were made. Willis Hlckum appeared for the assessor In the first Instance and for the county board 1n the other case. The assessor's appeal was practically dismissed without argument when it was learned that the State Board has already ruled on the same kind of a case against the assessor. In the other case, William A. Pickens appeared for the appellant. He argued that the law was somewhat ambiguous In regard to the point at issue and referred to the case decided some years ago by the Supreme Court, known as the Vajen case, in which It was held that national bank stock should be listed so as to allow debits to be deducted. He also contended that as there was no other place In the schedule where State bank stock could be listed, it would necessarily come under the head of "all other amounts due from persons, firms or corporations," etc. On the other side Mr. Hickum held that the reason there was no provision made in the schedule for the listing of State bank stock Is that it is to be listed by the township assessor and the blank is to be filled out by the Individual. He maintained that that was the strongest argument in favor of the position taken by the County Board of Review. He also showed that In the Vajen case the Supreme Court said that the reason national bank stock must be listed so as to allow deductions to be made is that the federal law provides that it shall be thus taxed, which was contrary to f the then existing State laws and the fed eral law took precedence over the btate law. Except for that provision of the State law, the court said, it would be compelled to decide otherwise. Yesterday morning the board gave out its valuation - of the express, telephone, telegraph and . sleeping-car companies. There is, practically, no change from last year's assessment. The only difference Js the changes that have been made by tSe companies. Most of the telephone and telegraph companies have Increased their mileage slightly, while some of the other companies have increased and some have decreased. The total assessment is nearly $500,000. The list is as follows: Miles. Per Mile. Western Union Telegraph s Company .6,642.00 $357 Postal Telegraph Cable Company 678.13 173 Grand Rapids and Indif ana Railroad Telegraph Company 106.22 73 Cumberland Telephone and Telegraph Company 10S.00 100 Ohio Valley Telephone Company 130.00 75 Central Union Telephone Company ....2.32S.49 230 Greensburg Telephone Company 127.00 40 American Telephone and Telegraph Company .... 279.62 500 Cincinnati, Richmond & Fort Wayne Railroad Telegraph Company .... 83.77 73 Pullman Palace Car Company 2.139.S6 150 W agner Palace Car Company 1,596.53 100 National Express Company 414.11 Z'A Wells-Fargo Company.... 159.76 100 American Express Company 1.844.00 2-jO Adams Express Company. 1,925.00 2j0 United States Express Company 1.272.66 173 Pmclflo Express Company. 425.91 50 The other proceedings before the board yesterday were brief. The matter of real estate assessment was considered for a short time. All ofithe counties have not yet reported to the board. It Is intimated by the board that there will be many changes in this class of property.. It Is believed that many counties have not made a fair assessment, and wherever this Is found to be true. It will be Increased to what the board deems equitable. For the Firemen's Relief Fnnd.
