' Rl'H VILUE. Ind.. AprU The trouble tnat has for months existed between the Bi;? Four railway officials anl the Town Hoard of Carthage over the crossings of First ar.4 Second streets Into the new Rose Hill addi tion resulted thi morning in an open fight between the town marshal's pofse and the section hand, who drove the marshal and his friends away, tore up the crossing and pushed coal cars acro?s the place, blocking tho thoroughfare. Two years ago the- Rose Jlill addition was platted juft acrcs3 the Il!g Four switch yards on the east side of town. Last summer a handsome new school building waa erected in Uoso Hill, and a groat clamor was made for acceus to the new portion of town. There Is no driveway to Rose Hill, and the enly means the school children have of getting there is by a foot path around the ecuth tide of the depot. several blocks out of the way of the residents of the upper half of the town. The town trustees tried, to settle matters with the railroad company, but the latter at first would not listen to the idea of havtnir their switch yard and main siding tut ui uv the streew. Civil and criminal actions were brought against the Bltr Four comDanr. un der the act of 1835. which amies a ienaltv Of $100 for blocking street erodings.

This they dkl this morning. Town Marshal Thomas J. Hill, with a force of twenty-five men, began nailing boards on tho railroad tracks. Tha posts of the wire fence with which the railroad company had divided the town were urawn out and cast aside. The approaches to the railroad had been graded ana graveled to the company's property line, and all that remained to be done was to get in a board crossing over the four tracks which lie in the path of the proposed street crossings. juarsnai Jim and his men- were pushing the work with all possible speed to-day when agent Campbell notified Road master Long, of the Michigan division, at Anaerson. The roadmaster ordered the section gangs at Car thage and Kmrhtstown to report at the scene and tdefleat at all hazards the efforts cf the Town Board to effect a crossing. The section hands hastened to Carthage and did everything in their power to keep Marshal Hill's force from constructing the crossing. A Carthasenian would no uooner have a spike in on One end of a plank than a section hand' with a pick was tugging at the other end'of the board. Excitement ran hlffh. and for a time It Jcoked as if there would te a general tight. Threats passed back and forth, and after two or three hours of this form of warfare the Town Board men were driven from the tracks by the section men backing some loaded , coal cars over the crossings. Prosecuting Attorney Young and Senator Newby were called and warrants issued for the arrest of the section hands and station agent on a charge of obstructing a public highway. The whole crew was arrested and taken before 'Squire Benjamin, and the hearing set for later in the evening. Crowd3 have thronged near the Big Four station In Carthage all day and great ex citement prevailed. Toe feeling against the Biz Four' company is intense, and the citizens are now uninimcus In their Intention to stand by the Town Board to compel the railroad company to afford them access to Rose Hill. TUB APPORTIONMENT St'lT. John ICern Appears nnd Aka Change of Venue. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. NOBUE3VIULE, Ind., April 8.-On Mondaymorning, at the opening of the April term of court, the first step was taken in the great apportionment case here. Joel H. Matlock, auditor of Jackson count, through his at torney, John W.. Kern, filed a motion for a change of venue from the county. The usual cause of local prejudice and undue Influence of the plaintiff over the citizens of this county was assigned. As court adjourned early Monday morning nothing was done in tha caeo until to-day. Attorneys A. u. Harris and John W. Kern were here to-day, and Mr. Kern took another steo In the slow progress of the case. He entered a special appearance on. the part of the defendants, and asked till to-morrow to complete the special appearance of all tha Democratic offi cers of the State .who are aerendants in tms suit. When, that la done the next step is to argue the question of Jurisdiction. This argument Is set for 1 o'clock to-morrow. Drr Tuclser Gives Notice. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. NOBLES VILLE, Ind., April 8. The result of tho Crawfordsvllle convention yesterday. while . disappointment to the candidates of this county, was Just as a large majority of the Republicans of the county expected it would be. ; Conservative men here have con ceded the nomination to Mr. Iandis, and he wfll have the enthusiastic support of the full Republican vote. The defeated candi dates admit that Mr. Landls won his victory fairly and honorably, and will give him their unqualified support. Ex-Senator Graham accepts his defeat with a smile and with malice and bitterness toward no one. Dr. .TucKer, on m.j otner nana, says that he had the nomination in his hands. but was slaughtered Ir. his own household in Hamilton county. Ho further states that he intends to commence a war of extermination In Hamilton county, and that two years hence he expects to be a candidate again for Congress in this district. However, the voters are getting tired of the biennial congressional funerals In this county and are about ready to put a9ide ail tne old leaders, with their factional fights, and begin life over In this matter. There Is a further dis position to discard the old rule of .passing the honor of representing Congress around to different ones every two or four years, realilzing that If this district is to have standing in Congress there must be experi ence as well as ability in the member.

Others, however, believe that he will stick through it all and allow hid solid counties to cast their votes for him. He will attend, as he has already signified his Intention cf so doing. Johnson may also attend. Mil. HUSTON IinTTF.n. Will Soon Itetnrn from Denver nnd Straighten Ont Ills Affairs. Special to the' Indianapolis Journal. OONNERSVILLE. Ind.. April 8. The vol untary assignment of Hon. James N. Hus ton, ex-Treasurer of the United States, has caused much talk and speculation, many be L'evins he will be abi to satisfy his cred itors by paying dollar for dolltr. Mr. Hu? to.Vs troubles became Known to the public about three years ago during the flnancla panic, when he vas ccmpllid Id rlorc .n l ar.k for several months. The depositors ard hli friends generally had great confidence In hhn. ani not a suit was brought against 1.1m as a consequence, he borrowed money, reopened his bank and paM his deposit ors 6 per cent, upon the amount of their re;ective depojlta for the time they were tied ip, ani
apparently was getting along-all right until the first of the year, when It became whispered that the Citizens Bank was about lo close its doors again, which occurred Feb. 5. Thl. was made necepsary partly an vrcvunt of financial embarrassments and iar:)y on account of the ill health of Mr. Huston. At
the time the bank closed Mr. Huston was confined to his home almost blind and almost a physical wrek. The attending physician demanded absolute rest and that he fre his mind from business cares, -or that a complete collapse would result. The advice or the physician was taken and the bank closed. A few days later Mr. Huston mortgaged all his realty and personal properly to Hon. James M. Mcintosh as trustee. He was advied to go to Denver. Col., for his health. Before leaving, he requested the people to be lenient with him. and as eoon at his health was so Improved he woull pay off every cent of his indebtedness, making local creditors preferred. This seemed satisfactory for a short time, but a few of the creditors' became threatening, held consultations with the legal fraternity in regard to bringing suit, etc. This information wa sent to Mr. Huston at Denver, who Immediately made an assignment before a Denvfr notary, sending tho papers here for recording. :trKl naming James Mcintosh assignee. As most of the assets is real estate. It H a difficult matter to approximate their value and estimates do not often compare very favorably with the opinion of appraisers. However, it has be?n estimated that his liabilities will amount to flO.OCO. assets from $.,"0,c to srw.wo. "Reports from Mr. Huston regarding his iieaiui aiu vcijr aa Ui ttijit?. lllf iiiuuiliaiu air has worked wonders in his case; his Improvement Is pronounced, and his numerous friends hope It will be permanent. As soon as his physician deem It advisable, Mr. Huston will return to his homo to assist all In his power in the adjustment of his difficulties. Under his trying circumstances he haM been accorded such generous consideration as to cause comment. This fact is most highly appreciated and no doubt will act as a stimulus for making a hasty settlement. Friends from different parts of the United states have proffered aid of moat substantial kind, and it la believed by the reat major ity interested that a satisfactory settlement will be the outcome. CHIEF PRECEPTOR GONE. With Him linn Disappeared 1,200 from C. II. Over Preceptorj-. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. MUNICH B, and., April 8. David K. Miller, widely-known window-glass blower, mysteriously missing; .also $1,130 which belongs to C. H. Over receptory of the Window-glass Work ers' Association, of L. A. . 300. Miller was chief preceptor of the preceptory and had charge of all the finances, which he kept deposited at the Delaware County National Bank. Last week the account In bank amounted to but $2S0,,but two new ap plications for membership came In, and with he applications, a3 required, came the fee of $000 from each. The money was turned over to the chief preceptor, who deposited It. A- few days later the applicants were voted on and both were rejected on the grounds hat they had no been in America long enough, having come here from France. The money was to have been returned to the men Saturday or Monday. Saturday evening. Just at the hour of closing the bank. Miller entered and wrote our a check for lUSO, taking the money with him. Cashier Church noticed that Miller was slightly Intoxicated. That Is the last seen of him here and It Is believed that he took the first train out of the city. He was missed at the factory Sunday night, and when his wife called at the factory Sunday to ee why her husband had not been home the suspicion of the members of the preceptory was aroused and a hurried Investigation dis closed the above facts. The wife seems as much surprised as anyone and the workers are stunned. The chief preceptor Is not re quired to give bond. The two men who were black-balled are pleased at the result, as they will get their money back and the three hundred members, of the preceptory will have to make good the loss. This robbery has developed a like robbery which occurred here two years ago at Marlng-Hart preceptory, but the "facts have always been kept a secret. It is not known how much was secured in that steal, but It amounted to several hundred dollars and the man was never caught, but it Is now claimed that he purchased a New Jersey farm with the money and now resides on it. Each factory has a preceptory which is auxiliary to L. A. 300, of Pittsburg, and no skilled laborer Is employed unless he belongs to the preceptory. A TOW-BASS EPISODE.

Under the Haines Bill the Hobo Gets Nothing to Eat with Ills Beer. New York Evening Sun. One large downtown " liquor man this morning expressed satisfaction with the success of his first day selling sandwiches for 5 cents and salads at moderate rates, where heretofore his patrons helped themselves without stint or cost. He rather liked the idea as it worked for him, but It was the poorer men he felt for, the men whose customers bought a glass of beer because they could get a piece of bologna inlaid in a slice of bread V'ith it or nothing. This class -of saloohs, which are found in large numbers along the' Bowery and the river fronts, will, indeed, suffer a falling off la trade. Many of . them derive a large part of their income from the tramps and shlftlesa hoboes who, figuratively speaking, drink beer and whisky to satisfy their appetites, and eat a sandwich to quench their thirst. These little dealers hold to their lunches, and will not abandon them until they are compelled to by the police. There Is a place in Park row, near Chatham square, where they sell such delectable drinks as "Trilby morning appetizers" and "evening solace cocktails." The proprietor this morning had an exceedingly long face. He had received a little warning from the policeman on hLsj beat that the day was at hand when he must abandon his lunch. He drew a long schooner . of beer and passed it over, the bar. to a -man whose soiled and horny hands were -no sign that he earned his free lunch toy dally toil, and said in a solemn tone: , , "Them's the fellers ez'll suffer. Them ez comes here an gits their breakfasts an one of my plentiful hlps of beer fer 5 cents. I don't give 'em all . foam, ; nuther, but a L solid beer an a solid meal,c an ; that's why tney paternize me. Alter tnrs De iaw mey n go git a sinker an' a -cup of ..coffee .fer 6 cents. It'll hurt the business. I tell you." A look at the line of hoboes who were crowding around the counter, helping themselves avariciously from. th bowl of sauerkraut and the tin basin full of dried herring was convincing of the truth of this discourse. ' -t "We're eatin hearty while we kin," paid one man with bristling red whiskers. "Solids Is necessary, an' If we can't git 'em wit beer, we'll have ter buy em, an' ef we buy 'em we can't git no beer." It is not Improbable that the death of the free lunch will mean the birth of a great number of cheap coffee stands, which wild effect the relief of these unfortunates. Various charity organizations are already discussing the advisability of starting cheap coffee aloons, where the men who in the ast have depended on the saloons for their unch can get something to eat at very reasonable rates. REM'ADED OF A 5TOHV. It AVn Applicable to the Democratic Situation. Washington Special In Chicago Post. Every campaign brings to the surface a lot of new stories and "a lot of old ones with a point or application that gives them peculiar charm and pkjuancy. Belonging to the latter class is the following: A group of Democrats In Chamberlln's were talking about their prospects next November and discussing the ways and means of avoiding the intermediate squall3 and pitfalls. The nice construction of the Chicago platform seemed to give them a great deal of trouble, and a wide diversity of opinion developed as to what the convention should do to best advance the Interests of the party. One thought It should declare for free silver; another was firmly convinced that the one thing needed to bury Democracy beyond the hope of resurrection was a free-silver plank. A third pronounced for a straddle. The discussion became heated, nearly Involving the party In a row at one time. Finally an onlooker who had been an amused listener to the flery controversy over the kind of a platform the convention should adopt broke In. "Say, gentlemen, you remind me of the old woman who went into a dry goods store on F street the other day and asked the clerk to show her some wrappers. She was very hard to please, and pretty nearly every thing on the sneives was taKen down ana spread before her without producing an emotion.' After the stock had been completely exhausted the old lady peered over the top of a mountain of wrappers of every conceivable sort, from calico to. silk, and ranging In price from 30 cents to fJOO, and peevishly a?ked If that was all they had. 'Yes.' replied the clerk, with resignation, that's everything. I have shown you every piece In the largest stock In town. The old lady thought a minute and then, with a sigh that came from the very foundation of her being, said: I don't really suppose it makes so very much difference what kind of a wrapper I get. It's for a corpse." The Cathode Hay. Prof. A. W. Wright, in. the Forum. It may be briefly explained without going into detalLi of a very technical subject, that ordinary light Is regarded as due to vibrations which are at rlg-ht angles to the direction In which the . ray travels, but that, In the mathematical theories of lijfht. other vibrations, in the direction of the ray, are indicated, though wholly unknown in experience hitherto. If the new rays prove in fact to be of this character, so as to realize Indeed the long-sought longitudinal vibration, the discovery is of the first importance In science, and will hnrlly find its equal in interest since the discovery of the law of Gravitation: for It reveals a new I iHUU Ui IIUII K' . . ftv.luHK v v.'

IMPORTANT ITo Jojpeoltio Cycle JBtui on?
In the bicycle business, as in all others, success provokes jealousy among: competitors. The marvelous success of the WAVERLKY is no exception to the rule. No bic3clecver sprang more quickly into public favor than did the WAVERLEY, wholly on genuine merit. From a small, beginning" three years ago, its makers are the acknowledged leaders in the cycle trade, building", as they do, more high grade wheels than any other factory in existence. Especially has the success been marked in Indianapolis, the sales here in 1895 being larger than any three other high grade makes combined. Being jealous of this, with a total lack of honesty, decency and business principle, some competitors have been prompted to mislead prospective buyers with derogatory statements relative to the WAVERLEY, which arc utterly false andwithout foundation. Such despicable methods arc certainly to te deplored, but are resorted to only by the unreliable and irresponsible, who endeavor to convince customers they arc giving: them something" for nothing-, when in fact they arc trying to get their money without giving an equivalent, and then chuckle to themselves at their shrewdness (?). m It is quite significant, however, that the best citizens of Indianapolis arc showing their good judgment in not allowing themselves to be misled, and are purchasing WAVERLEYS right along. The WAVERLEY BICYCLES represent honest value. They contain the best material that money will buy, and arc built under the supervision of the best mechanical skill in the world. In proof of our assertions, wc invite intending- purchasers to visit and inspect our factory and methods of construction. The WAVERLEYS arc sold at strictly one price to alland that the lowest possible figure at which a strictly high-grade machine can be marketed. When a dealer offers a wheel at a cut price, it is a clear acknowledgment that his goods pre not worth list price, and is also an acknowledgment, that purchasers who have paid list price have been Died. In that case no buyer has the assurance that he also has not been duped. Those who want a high-grade wheel, and cannot pay $85, we will furnish an 1895 WAVERLEY at 565, which far excels most 1896 patterns of other make, especially those that arc not of good enough quality to command list price. Our terms are easy $5 down and $2 per week. Buy awheel of standard make from a company whose word is as good as their bond, and their bond as good as gold. One good wheel is better than a dozen poor ones.

Internal politics In Germany has not beea very alluring; the pat month, la the Rdchtilg the civil code bill is rtowly progressing. It is Interesting to note that the hardest fight U over the dvll-marrl3g -paragraph. Roth the powerful Centrw party or Catholics and the Conservative factions are opposed to the retention of that feature of It. They wish to make civil marriage at least a matter of choice, not of compulsion, becaure they rightfully feel that to ft uf the civil ceremony thus alve the rvllgijus renders the latter a mere luxury, and further weakens the hold of the clergy, both Protestant and Catholic, on tn ccmrr.cn people. However, the government Itstlf Insists cvn obligatory civil marriage, and there Is a majority for It In the Relchsxag. Of interest, too. was the lfbate on the dueling nuisance, which formed a part of the discussion on the military budget. The duel, an Institution whlcn robs Germany every year of hundreds of her most promising and gifted men (for tu:h encounter are, as a rule, much more bloody and ferius here than In France or Italy, was handled) without gloves by a number of able speakers, the moot scathing . arraignment being that by Rebel, the Socialist leader.
