The mother building oul the Vhll V as they were sometimes called, were khnply frorsjeous In their day. Old residents pointed to them with no little degree or priue. The brunch building was used for bankln? purpose for many years. It wili Im- letter remembered as it existed as the oitiee of the water company.

A SYSTEM ALL WRONG

ni;v. 3i ii. 3iiLiiru m:oi ri:s jail AM) PRMTHNTIAItV IDKA. - StiKSFNt Agrlciilturnl lInnl fur Isolation nnd HeKcncrnUon of Prison or a Poller Court AVriK. ' Itev. Jo-H.'ph Antony Milium preached a sermon at the Second rrebytervin Ciuir;!: yesterday morn!ns which created onsidtrable comment on tho advanced stand he tock In regard to th treatment of criminals. Ho held that the present system ir, radically wrong: and barbarous. He suggested i.-lands for the isolation of criminals, making: each criminal a builder ci his own fortunes anew in an agricultural way. "Thy gentleness hath made mo sr-at" was Mr. Milburn's text. Regarding the tr?utment of criminals he said: "There. In a further application of the tiutli of the puissance of gentleness that I wish to make, and that is to me misdemeanors and crimes of tociery. I am very much pained the more I reflect ;pon it at the narbarousnsiis of our present methods In dealing- w ith social malefactors. 1 am very sure that our present system, of Justice Is an anachronism, that It Is mejieval, and not modern. I believe that every penitentiary Is an anachronism. I believe that our whole criminal system Is barbarous and out of l!ne with the hlsther f intelligence and the gentler emotions of ! this nineteenth century. I am very sure that in no realm is there such a crylm? need for reform a there is In this realm of crime and Its punishment. "Now, we all will concede that Foclety mnst protect Itself from tho depredations of wrons doers. Property must De respected, reputation must be respited, life n.ust be respected. Wo must nave order or we cannot have social organization. Crime is simply one form of anarchy, and, therefore, the limitation of crlma la an indispensable condition of social balance and progress. Tho rooting- out of crlnv1, the extirpation of the bad blood of ihe race this we all realize to be the Pupremd desideratum. Uut the question that I wish to propound to you is, do you think that our present method of dealing .vita en me Is conducive to Its extirpation and defeat? Or Is it not rather conducive to its growth and extension? Do you not think that we are, by the ferocity and barbarouness of our present Judicial methods, manufacttirinsr criminals' and spreading the np'.iit cf crimo abroad In the body social? Hire, for Instance, is a young1 lad. say fifteen or sixteen years old, who, either by reason of some intrinsic vice of blood, or by evil companionship, or by exigent circumstances, has ben ffuilty of theft. Now, what do we do with that boy? He has never been a violator of law before, he has had a record wholly clean, a, kast so far as crimo Is concerned, before this offense, nut this counts for nothing in our method of dealing with him. We treat him as we treat the most hardened criminals; we treat him as we treat the habitual transgressor of law. We arrest him, put upon him the odium of crinv. place him In Jatl or in the county workhouse; we bereave him of character, we ber?avtf him of credence In the world's minJ. and so this boy i3 forever tarnished in his reputation and handicapped in nls power to make his way in life. And thus by our stupidity we force him into , a life of crime. CASE OF A YOUNG GIRL. "Or pehaps it is a young girl guilty of some Indiscretion or disobedience against the conventional law of society that authority has laid its hand upon. Jsow we all know that a woman's reputation 1 a much mora frail thins than a man'r; that a man, can survive many things in the way of a social odium that a woman cannot survive. We know that the slightest stain iij;o a woman's character Is almost Ineradicable. We know that It Is a most delicate thine, and that the slightest touch defiles it irremediably. And therefore It would peem that the most punctilious care should be taken before the hand of Justice should smirch In the lightest way any woman's reputation. And yet how often we read in the daily papers of young girls arrested and taken to the police station and Incarcerated there for some Irregularity of conduct. It Is a slight thing in a way, 'it is Just one unit of the city of Indianapolis, just one Individual out of liO.OiO, and we don't think much or eeriously of such u matter. We read the newspaper notifying us of this arrest, and then pass on to the social column to read about the tea that Mrs. So-and-so gave yesterday, or the reception that Mrs. So-and-so Is to give to-morrow. Put In the meantime there is a career wrecked, there is a soul damned. Irretrievably damned by the contact of a harsh, austere and barbarous Justice. And thus In the case of both this girl and this boy society has been Instrumental In doing; the very thine -that it is seeking to undo, and In making the very thing that it Is seeking to unmake. I say that in these instances, and In a thousand others, It is helping yearly by Its barbarous and medieaval methods of social discipline to create criminals and foster crime in our midst. Indeed, I , believe that our penitentiaries, and our jails, and our police court system do as much to debauch the conscience of the race as do all the passions of the human heart or the malign influences of society. I believe that these alleged Instrumentalities of justice are so far from being Just that they compete with the saloons, with the lowest and vilest of the saloons, in debauching' and defeating character. Well, you say. If this method of force be a failure, if the penitentiary be a failure, if our present Judicial system be an anachronism, what method of discipline is to be applied by society in its dealing with the criminal and with crime? I answer that the only method is the biblical method, the divine method, David's method, Christ's method, the method of gentleness, the 'gentleness that maketh great. I believe that when Jeaus said, 'Love one another, he meant that love to be extended to the evil Just as much as to the good. I believe that when Jesus said, 'Love your enemies,' He meant us to love our social enemies Just as surely as He meant our personal enemies. 1 believe that when Jesus said that Love is the fulfilling of the law He not only had in mind the ethical precepts of the sermon He delivered on the mount, but also all law, all social law, all civil law, all State law, all criminal law. I believe that when Jesus said that love was the central and only prolific principle of regeneration, He meant by that to affirm that It was the only central and proline principle of social regeneration, as of Individual regeneration. And, therefore, I believe firmly this moment that the only way to redeem crime is by treating It with gentleness. Ah, you saw that is mere sentiment and rhapsody. You say that there is a certain class of people that have to be compelled by fear, by duress, by coercion, by the lightnings, by the roaring thunder, and by penalties. Are there? Well, then, why don't we coerce them, why don't we compel them, why aren't our thunders and lightnings effective? That is what I want to know, if there is a certain type of mind that will only submit before a penalty, and cringe In fear before a threat, 1 should like to ask why our penitentiaries are to full of burglars, why our prisons aro so full of thieves, why the cells of almost all our county Jails are so full of criminals? If fear Is such an operative principle In theory, tell me, my friends, why it is such a puny and inoperative principle In fact as a deterrent force? Why is this? Why, because it is not Clod's way of dealing "with wrong doers; that is why. There is no greatness in it because there is no gentlmess in it; there Is no effectiveness in it because there is no love in it. I tell you It is love or nothing, because love alone can redeem. GENTLKXKssS AS A CURE. "Now, let me Illustrate to you through one of my former instances how love will operate in Its discipline of criminals and malefactors. Take the case of the young man we have before mentioned. Here is a young man who is a wrongdoer in the eyes of the law, and of course he must make atonement to society. What has gentleness to say in regard to his treatment? I think it will say this. 'D-y all you can to save that young man's character, will it not? I will say. IV all you can to have that young man from a vicious and criminal career.' It will ray, "Let this Le your paramount aim to make this young man convicted of this one offense hereafter a pood dtixen.' Save us much as you van of the force of this young man's soul for the service of God and his fellow -men. That would l.e the first injunction of the righteous method of discipline. The second would be this, to wit, to make that boy restore to society what he has taken from it. and make it possible for him to restore It without odium without shame, without degradation. And this can be done. Just exactly how I cannot in a few words show to you. The intellect of society, of our KgiUtors must think out the means and Instrumentalities, but in a rough way I think this young lad may amply and adequately pay Ida debt to Justl c without undergoing the tttigma and shaino and .damning, shadow of the Jail, by

beln compelled to restore by civil process the equivalent with interest of what be has taken from society. In other words. I held that for the minor offenses and misdemeanors and the smaller crimes no man, whether he be young or old, and no woman, whether she be young or old. should be incarcerated in prison. They should atone for their wrong through some method more gentle, sane and humane than the present method, that only makes them more needy. Incorrigible and criminal. "Put what ar we going to do with the habitual criminals, with the hardened ones? Well, we shall treat them with love also. I would abolish. If I had my way, every penitentiary or State prlon, if for no other reason than the Immense expense necessitated to sustain them. I see no reason whv

' the criminals of this land should le u sort of legalized parasite. I set? no reacon whjthe industrious citizenship of this country should bear the burden of clothing, and protecting, an 1 feeding a great mass of virions and parasitic criminals. And I am in hopes that all this oppressive weight might be abolished: that every penitentiary in the T'nited States might be abolished; that every State's prison In fids land might be abolished by applying Christ's method of gentleness to the treatment of habitual criminals. We are tausrht by the authorities, by experts like Maudsley, who has written so learnedly end wisely on mental pathology, that tending to crime is a disease. They tell us that there are two kinds of crime, one accidental or occasional, born of the pressure of circumstances or of situation: that th other is a predisposition of the blood, that It is congenital, that 13 an heridity. that it Is of the very structure of the moral organization. It is useless, then, to punish crime of this habitual and constitutional character. It Is just as useless as it is to punish a man for having some physical disease, some constitutional malady, just as useless as to punish a man for congenital Imbecility. The way to do is to gradually extirpate it, and to extirpate it gently, and the only way to extirpate crime gently and not barbarously is to segregate It, is to put it wholly away from the body social. "And I would do that In thb way: If I represented the authority of the State or of the Nation I should have two island?, one for each sex, to which all habitual criminals should be sent. And I would make.the determination of the question of habitual criminality a question for an expert commission. Put when a criminal had been determined by an expert commission to be an habitual criminal, I should not send him to spend five, or ten. or twenty years in Jeffersonville or Michigan City. I should send him to this island retreat: I should put the men on one Island and the women on the other, and I would make their lives as eomforabl as might be, I would allot to each a portion of land to cultivate. I would make every criminal, as far as possible, selfsustaining, and I would make his or her way as easy, and as smooth, and as pleasant as mlxht be. I would adopt this method of discipline out of the spirit of love, and not out of the spirit of hate. I would do It for the sake of the criminal as much as for the sake of society. I would do It with tho purpose of restraining the criminal against himself, as well as with the purpose of restraining him against tue body social. And I believe If society would apply this method. If it would lift the criminal wholly away from the conditions which tempt him with such vehemence, that, by reason of his diseased moral organization, he is powerless to resist, it would take the most sane step that has ever been taken toward the extirpation of crime, and at the same time toward the just and humane treatment of the criminal. "Ah. my friends, society must learn that by love, and by love only, can humanity be redeemed from Its crimes as from Its sins. It. too. must confess with David, 'Oh. Lord, thy gentleness hath made me great. " THE PRINTING- BIDS STATE HOARD WILL GO OVER THE CO.MPUTATIOXS TO-DAY. Muuner In Which the Itfdn Have Ileen Juffftlert in Yearn Past Aclnnl Quantities. The contract for the State printing may be let to-day. The bids have all been gone over and figured out to see which is actually the lowest. The printing board Intends to let the contract to the bidder that offers to do the work for the least actual cash and not to the one whose bid, on Its face, appears to be the lowest. The bids are made on certain quantities of each kind of material to be used called the basis of the bid. This basis is not the actual amount to be used, but is simply arbitrary quantities named for the purpose of maklnj? a price. On this account it Is possible for a bidder to manipulate his bid so as to make it appear low pn its face, when In fact it will be very high. As an example, the first Item in the contract may be taken. It is for the paper, composition and press-work on all book work. For instance, one bidder may bid six cents a pound for the paper and 4." cents a thousand for the composition, which, continued on the basis given In the bid, would be ?2,70u, and $I,9Th for the two Items, making a total of $7,6oO. Another bidder makes his bid at 8 cents and 25 cents, respectively, for the two items, making a total of $7,4oO. or S-00 less than the first bidder, but the first bid Is exactly the same as the second when the final result Is obtained. These two calculations have been made on the basis submitted, which Is 43,000 pounds of paper and ll.Ouu.WO ems of composition. The actual amount to be paid for by the State will be about 300,000 pounds of paper and 60,uu0,0X ems of composition, which at 6 and 45 cents amount to $13,000 and $27,000. respectively, or a total of $4o,C00. while the other bid amounts to $21,000 and $21,000, respectively, for the two items, a total of $45,000. It will be seen from this that every' cent of increase on the cost of the paper allows a decrease of 5 cents on the composition and still makes the grand total the same, but reduces the amount $100 when the basis alone is considered in computing which Is the lower of two bids. Heretofore the basis has been considered in letting the contracts, hence the printing has cost the State much more than would have been the case if the bids had all been extended and the contract let to the one that was actually the lowest on the grand total. The State printing amounts to more than $100,009 a Year. There are many other pitfalls in tho specifications. For instance, there Is the printing of State election ballots. The basis in this Instance is lOO.uOO tickets, when, in fact, there were 6,011,000 printed for the last election. To raise the bid on these 1 cent on each hundred would amount to only $10 increase in the total of the bid on the basis of lOO.OoO tickets, but would be an actual increase on the amount used of $C04.4O, which would compensate for a reduction of 1 cent on each thousand ems of tvpe and still leave a net margin to the biddder of $A.4d when the State came to pay for the amount actually used, besides reducing the face of the bid an even $100. Such are a few of the many ways in which the bids for tho State printing have been manipulated in past years, and some of the bidders, supposing the present administration would go it blindly and award the contract on the face of the bid, have made their bids accordingly. The Republican administration is pledged to economy and the members of the printing boarl have s.id that they do not intend to let this contract to nny but the lowest bidder in fact, regardless of what h figures on the bid on the basis may be. The figures have all been extended, and the board now knows which of the contracts is the best for the State. The board will meet this morning and go over the figures as prepared by the clerk of the board. While it is probable the contract may be awarded this morning it Is possible there may be further delay, for the board may want time to verify Clerk Carter's figures. A QUIET SUNDAY, Hut evertliele Many Tlontl Hoiien it ml Other Pliicen ol! Liquor. The slate at police headquarters was black all day yesterday. The patrolmen reported everything quiet, and no-violations of the liquor law were noticed. There were no arrests, and, consequently. Mr. Colbert says there are few attempts at violations, hence no arrests. During the day a number of places had the indications of violating the law. but the police did not see It. One Maryland-street saloon keeper called at headquarters to enter an objection-to olllcers coming in his back yard, but he was Informed that the whole force would be placed there- if necessary to enforce the law. The speech as delivered by Mr. Colbert KounJed very nice. The thirsty did not annoy the saloons to any great extent. Tho roadhouses outside tlu city were running from all indications. These indications include buggies hitched in the yard, men entering by the side ways and a general sign of activity about tie places. In those parts of the city where there are many disreputable houses It was observed that a large crowd was coming and going. Since Colbert became superintendent no orders have been Issued against disreputable houses selling liquor, and It can be found there at any time of the day or night. The present administration claims that any other course would he persecution.

DARK FOR CAMPBELL

GOV. 3IATTIIEWS RETlItXS FROM OHIO 1VIT1I SAD SEWS. "Would Xot He Surprised," hut .Nevertheless Sec No Chance for the Rooster Ills Cnbnn Speech. Governor Matthews, having feasted the Ohio Democracy on stalwart truths for a week, has returned to his home. The Governor came back Saturday night, closing his campaign at Hamilton in the afternoon. He did not speak at Cincinnati, as was the original arrangement. When he left home a week ao Governor Matthwes contemplated closing his work at Cincinnati Saturday night. Ex-Governor Campbell was to speak in the Queen City, and arrangements had been made for a routing meeting. The cause Which led the tlovernor to abandon his original plans was the failure of his voice. Most of -his meetings during the week were in the open air, and he caught a heavy cold. At Hamilton Saturday afternoon, ho had some difficulty in making himself heard, and decided that it would be unwise to undertake to speak at Cincinnati. Governor Matthews is well pleased with his Ohio trip. He was accorded the most flattering attention everywhere, lie says, and all of hl3 meetings were attended by lmmenso audiences. While the Governor speaks encouragingly of the political situation in Ohio he is not as emphatic in his assertions as to the probable result as his Democratic friends could wish. "I am hopeful," he said yesterday, "of Campbell's election. Indeed, I would not be surprised If he would pull through safely. As to the Legislature, I am confident that the Democrats will be victorious. I think I have never known more enthusiasm than seems to prevail in Ohio at this time. Thq Democrats seem to have awakened to the situation, and they aro working. Governor Campbell has made a magnificent, fight. Throughout the campaign he has stuck to State issues, of which there are many, and I think be has made a winning fight. I did not touch especially on State issues, but talked Democracy generally. 1 met a groat many Republicans while in Ohio, and found them, of course, strongly allied to McKInley in all their discussions of national affairs. Next to McKInley they favor Harrison or Allison. I found that General Harrison has a great many standi friends In the State.", Governor Matthews will not speak at Atlanta on Cuban Independence day, which has been announced for Dec. 17. Instead, he will go to Philadelphia and deliver his Cufcin address there. "I am heartily In sympathy with Cuba," he said, "and favor a recoemltlon of the belligerency by the United States. I prepared an address for the Atlanta occasion, but it will not be convenient for me to deliver it on the date nameu. I should have done so had not the date been changed. I hv. been invited to go to Philadelphia by the Antietarri Brigade Association of that city and deliver an address there some time this month. I have accepted the invitation. The occasion will be a Cuban demonstration, and my remarks will be along that line." Governor and Mrs. Matthwes will leave for Atlanta this afternoon to visit their son, Seymour, who is ill with typhoid fever in that city. The Governor will return in a day or two, but Mrs. Matthews will remain with her Fon until he has grown strong enough to be brought home. REPORTERS FAILED TO FIND HI3L Gen. Harrison Illd Xot Stop at n Hotel In Chicago. General Harrison went to Chicago Friday night to make an argument before the United States Appellate Court. Of course he was Immediately sought after hy manynewspaper men, who were anxious to try to get a word from him on any subject, and especially on the recent publications in regard to Sherman's book. The ex-Presi-derlt, however, till hot seem to want publicity and sought the shelter of the home of some friend, where he would not be bothered by calls from representatives of all of Chicago's great dallies. The Tribune, in commenting on the matter says: "Ex-Presfdent 'Harrison will appear before the United States Court of Appeals in the Monadnock Ruilding to morrow morning to argue a case which has been taken up from the Indiana, district. It is one in which the 'Clover Leaf railway is Interested, and General Harrison will appear a counsel for that road. "In the meantime no little mystery surrounds the present whereabouts of the exPresident and possible candidate for renominatlon. A telegram from the Tribune's correspondent, at Indianapolis received yesterday stated General Harrison had left his home the evening before en route for Chicago. Attorney Pierce, of the Clover Leaf road, also received the same Information, and so told Judge Woods, of the United States Court of Appeals, who is a close friend of the ex-President and was by him appointed to the bench. "Yesterday at noon Judge Woods and Mr. Pierce strolled over to the hotel at which they understood General Harrison was stopping, only to discover he was not there. They made further inquiries, but could not learn where the distinguished lndianian was stopping, and finally gave the quest up as too ditlicult a job. . " I simply called to pay my respects said Judge Woods afterward to a reporter for the Tribune, 'but found It cotild not be done, as I could not find where Mr. Harrison is stopping, and have no way of finding out. He has several friends in Chicago, and mayf be stopping at a private house, but the understanding was he was to go to a hotel, and It would be supposed he would, as he i to be here on business. "Then a reporter for the Tribune look up the hunt where Judge Woods had left off, and with precisely the same result. Every hotel at which there was the least chance of General Harrison stopping was v?3lted, and a number of others also. He was not at any of them, and was not expected, and no one in Chicago seemed to know anything about him. "His friends doubted whether he was in the city at all, pointing out the fact that he would much prefer to spend Sunday at home than in Chicago, but the answer to this was to reach here on Monday morning he would be forced to travel on Sunday, and General Harrison Is known to bo opposed to that unless absolutely necessary. Resides the Indianapolis correspondent was certain he had left that c!t: "So it was that all day yesterday the exPresident's friends and thenewsnaper reporters hunted for him, and all of them failed. If ho was In the city he was hidden securely from the politicians and newspaper men." FRED Vi DAI LEY'S NEW HOTEL, The Maunder of the Grand AVJU Movt to Denver, Col. Fred -W. Ralley, for tho last three years manager of the Grand Hotel, In this city, has invested in hotel property at Denver, Col., and will leave the last of this week to take. charge of hi9 new possessions. Mr. Ralley,has purchased the St. James, one of the leading hotels of Denver, and which for several months has been in the hands of decorators anil painter. The new proprietor will reopen the house at once. .Mr. Ralley is well known in Indianapolis as a successful and popular hotel man. He came here five years ago to accept a position with the Rates, and for wo years was manager Relhold's confidential and financial man. Three years ago he became secretary and treasurer of tho Grand Hotel Company, and when Mr. Taggart took charre of the house, became its manager. Mr. Ralley Is one of the vice presidents of the Hotel Men's National Mutual Reneflt Association, is prominently identified with the Order of Elks?, and Is a thirty-second degree Mason. A Little Domestic Trouble. Yesterday afternoon a very good looking and well-dressed woman walked hurriedly into police headquarters and inquired for the superintendent. She was followed In a few minutes by a very good looking and well-dressed man, who asked for the superintendent. The man and the woman eyed each other closely and took chairs facing each other In front of Mr. Colbert. - "What can I do for you?" asked the superintendent. In concert the man and the woman began, but their stories did not entirely agree. It foom appeared that a domestic quarrei was up for consideration. .The man said his name is E. O. Hubbel. a representative of the firm of. Roozett &. Co., .wholesale Jewel

ers, of Chicago. He raid his wife gave him great concern. She said her 'husband worried her bes'ond endurance. He pursued her, so she sail, and she came to headquarters in order to escape him, Mr. Colbert did not listen to all the story, but advised the man and woman to return to

their boarding house and live quietly. C eacerully and happily together, ass a husand and wife should. DEATH OF VT. G. L0CKW001). A Wrll-IvnoTTu Iluniness Man Die nt Install. W". G. Lockwood, an old resident of Indianapolis, -died yesterday at Ingalls, a small station on the Cleveland division of the Rig Four road, of typhoid fever. Mr. Lockwood has been a resident of this city for more than fifty years, coming here from near Southport, in this county. For the last ten years he has lived in Woodruff Tlace on the West drive, he being one of the first to make that his home after the park was opened? up and sold as lots for dwelling purposes. Mr. Lockwood has long been known in this city as a stanch business man of the strictest integrity. By good business management he has accumulated considerable property, most of which Is In Indianapolis real estate. Ho was a strong, though not an active Prohibitionist. He was never known to take any leading part In politics, but his moral support has been with the Prohibition party. Mr. Lockwood was formerly the partner in the firm of Shellhouso & Co.. coal and lumber dealers. He sold out his interest in that firm and embarked in the manufacture of spring beds. At the time of his death he was president of the Puritan Spring Red Company, of Ingalls. He went there last week to attend to business, and was taken suddenly ill. and soon was in auch a dangerous condition that he could not be moved to his home in this city. His remains will arrive on the 10 o'clock train this morning. The time for the funeral has not yet been determined. air. Lockwood was a close student and a great reader. He was well informed on all the topics of the day and spent many spare hours in reading old classics as well as modern literature, although he was not looked upon as a literary' man in the common acceptance of the term. He leaves a wife and two daughters. Miss Margaret, who is well known here and elsewhere as a violinist of much note, and Mry. Frank Rogers. HOW THE COLLISION OCCURRED. Fire Engine a Minute Dehlnd Time The Firemen Recovering-. The firemen who were injured In the collislcn of fire apparatus at the comer of Michigan and1 West streets early yesterday morning were all reported to be well on the road to recovery yesterday. William Gano, of No. 6 engine company, who was the most seriously injured, was able to be about the engine house yesterday. Matthew Rogers, of No. 6, who had such a narrow escape, and Lewis Moore, driver of the chemical, were both reported In good condition. A queer coincidence Is mentioned In connection with the collision. Ordinarily, Xo. 6's engine would have passed the intersection of Michigan and West streets before the chemical could reach the point, but In starting from their house yesterday morning one of the members dropped his hat and the engine was slowed up long enough for him to secure it and again climb on. In doing this just enough time was lost to cause both engine and chemical to reaoh the intersection at the same time. Another point was that the driver of the chemical had seen the light of the fire, and instead of going to the box at the corner of Indiana avenue and, St. Clair street, he was making for the place where he had seen the light. On the contrary, the driver of No. 6's was driving toward the box, and in this way the two vehicles were to pass each other. LAST DAY FOR TAXES. ' All Must Pr Vp To-Dnr or Become Dellquent nnd Pay n Pennltr. This is the last day for the payment of taxes. The treasurer's office will be open at 7 o'clock, and will remain open until 6 o'clock p. m. For the last few days the rush has been great at the office, so many people waiting until the last minute. A large force of clerks will be on hand to-day, so as to facilitate the payment as much as possible. The receipts have been very heavy for some time past, and there are many letters containing checks on hand that have not yet been opened. It Is Impossible to attend to them until after the counter business is over. CITY NEWS NOTES. Jessie R. Arnold left yesterday afternoon for a two weeks' visit with her aunts, in Columbus, O.
