WM. C0UGIILEN DEAD

roil maxy yi:au.s a piiomixext "WOO LEX 31 AX I FACTIUER. AftrrTrnrdM President nnd then Vice I'rmldent of thr Indiana Xatlonnl Hank. William Coughlen died at his home. No. 4) North Capitol avenue, yesterday noon. For many years previous to 3SS1 he was a member of the firm of Merritt & Cojghlen, woolen manufacturers. Mr. Coughlen was born at Lowell, Mass., in February of PO). Early In life ho turned his talents toward the manufacture of woolen goods, being employed in the mills of Lowell, RoxbufV and Fltchburg. In 1M he was married, coming to this city in 1356. A partnership was immediately formed with George Merritt. From a small beginning the Industry grew to be one of great importance. Mr. Coughlen has been actively engaged In business until very' recently. He was confined to his home but two weeks before his death, the cause of his Illness being ureamic poisoning. In 187S Mr. Coughlen was chosen president of the Indiana National Bank. When Mr. V. ' T. Malott bought a controlling Interest of the stock Mr. Malott was consequently chosen president and Mr. Coughlen became vice president. He occupied this position until 3S94. From the organization of the Indiana National Bank until this date Mr. Coughlen was connected with it for many years as a director. Mr. Coughlen was a familiar figure about the bank, being known to all patrons and citizens, whom he welcomed. He was also a member of the Indiana Bedford Stone Company. He leaves a widow and six children. The children are Mrs. John E. Cleland. Edward Coughlen, William F. Coughlen, Harry G. 'ouj;hlen, Mrs. E. L. McKee ami Miss Macey Coughlen. The funeral will be held Monday afternoon at the family home. A R0BDEUV AT THE IttTES HOUSE. Hum Salt! io Tic Jt.'OO Taken from the Bookkeeper' Desk. A large fum of money was stolen from the desk of Miss Battle It. Small, bookkeeper at tho Bates House, while she was absent from her office at breakfast yesterday morning. Miss Small took, the money from tho large safe in the outer office and placed It in her desk, as- is the usual custom. Her office is 'back of the general office, and access can be hai to It from the outer office and from a side hallway. She ?ays that tho door leading to the outer office was closed anl locked, but that the door leading to the hallway was left unlocked. This Js a rare circumstance. She Is positive that tho door was not locked, as she noticed it was standing ajar after she had walked away from it. She contented herself with the knowledge that the money was locked in the desk, she says, and went On to breakfast. When she returned, about a half-hour afterwards, she found the desk open and the money gone. The police were r.otiiied at once, and two or three detectives went to the hotel. . Whether any clew was -obtained as to the identity of the thief cannot be learned, as all parties are very reticent. .Miss Small refused to state the amount of money stolen, but says that it Is considerably less than the amount rumored, JTwO. She was disinclined to discuss the affair in the absence of Mr. Rlebold, who is away from the city. She Is positive In her belief, however, that the theft 'was committed by an employe of the house, as she says no strangers' were seen Irving' the office. Employes might have gone in and out of the office without any suspicions being raised, as there Is a duplicate key to the rooms of the guests. The desk In which the money was placed could be opened without a key. Miss Small $ays, and there was no evidence that it had "been forced open, as the lock was not broken.

THE MOONSHINE STUFF two m:c;iioi:s at brigiitwood slspecred of selling it. Mrs. I?IIzaleth Klmbroaeh Arrested' A Cave i it Thel r Yard Came from Sonth Cnrollnu. Elizabeth Klmbrough, an old colored woman living on James street, near Seventeenth, in Brightwood, was arrested yesterday by Constable Tolin, of Justice Habich's court, who had warrants charging her with selling liquor without license, and with selling liquor on Sunday. Her husband, Isaac Klmtaough, signed bonds for her appearance," and she was released. The Kimbroughs, husband and wife, are well-known characters In Brightwood, where they have lived since the' close of the war. They are colored. South Carolina was their original home. For years it has been said that they wero violating the liquor laws, and that they sold white North Carolina corn whisky, to minors. It is charged that they have no State or county license, althouRh they have one from tho government. The revenue officials here have believed that the old negroes were selling "moonshine" whisky, and tho premises have bsen searched, so the marshal of Brightwood told Constable Tolin. The revenue men were unable to find "moonshine" whisky, but U is currently believed in Brightwood that such stuff is sold by the old negroes. Constable Tolin found the .old woman acting as barmaid, and she was .presiding over a freshly-tapped keg'cf beer when he entered her house. She grew furious when she learned the purpose of his errand, and at first flatly refused to submit to arrest. She thought better of it and accompanied him. Her husband goes about doing "odd Jobs" and leaves her to supply the wants of customers in search of liquor. It is said in Brightwood that the reason the government officials were unable to find "moonshine" whisky is because they failed to look for it In the right place. Constable Tolin was informed that the whisky which the old negroes sell is received from their old South Carolina home and that it comes here in barrels with wooden hoops and is labelled vinegar. The whisky is clear as water. Neighbors assert that the stuff Is kept stored in a cave In the cellar of the house 'and in other places where It can be easily concealed. Constable Tolin saw the cave in the .yard at Klmbrough's house, but did not investigate to see whether it contained barrels of whisky. A great deal of complaint has been made against the Kimbroughs by residents of Brightwood, who claim that their boys obtain liquor, and, while intoxicated, do many unlawful things. There are five separate cases against Mrs. Kimbrough, two affidavits having been -made by Joseph H. Hill, one by his wife, and another by John Owens. AN INVENTOR WHO DRANK. T. Am Van. Allen, AVho Died at City t -1 IIoMftltal, lias 11 History. T. A. Van Allen, an inventor, who was forty-eight or fifty years of age, died at the City Hospital yesterday. Nothing is known of him at the institution, although there i3 clinging to him the vague rumor that he was a man with a history. At the hospital it is not even known where his home is, nor the names of any of his friends. He was taken to the hospital Friday from the St. Nicholas Hotel, a lodging house on Maryland street. He was suffering with pneumonia and death came shortly after his entrance at the hospital. Van Allen is well known about the Grand Hotel. When he first appeared he wore fine clothes, a silk hat and gave every Indication of being prosperous. He stopped at the hotel, where on cne accasion be met a party of Cincinnati men, who were Interested io a patent belonging to Van Allen. Afterward he opened an otfice in the Stubbing Hotel building. For tho establishmoju of this office a bartender at the Grand gave up his position to Join his fortunes with those of Van Allen. At the hotel it is raid the firm did not prosper. The bartender lost considerable of what he had saved. The decline of Van Allen was marked during the last two months. He went from the Grand to a cheaper hotel, and when taken to the hospital he was stopping at a 50-cent lodging house on borrowed money. It is sai l that he could have prospered and done well with hfs patent but for drink, but all those who had a willingness to assist him lost confidence In him because of his habits. His last invention was that of a spring intended to overcome the dead center in all machines where a rotary motion is had. The Invention was declared a good one, but Van Allen could not obtain for it the proper support, with himself as controlling stockholder of a company. It is reported that at one time he was wealthy as a result of a profitable Invention. He is said to have made $100,000 by it, but Immediately began to waste It. He took to drlnkinf and gambling. Thursday night he borrowed enough of one of the night clerks at the Grand to get him a bed. die was .a small man and well known about the hotels, for no matter how low were nls finances he always wore a silk hat, which he kept smooth with great care. Absolutely nothing is known here of his relatives. STOLEN FROM HER SHOULDERS. . Miss 3Inry DIkkIus Loses Her Cap Her Father's Distrust. Miss Mary DIggins, a daughter of Morris Digging, of No. 520 North Capitol avenue, had a valuable silk cape stolen from her shoulders while she was walking along Washingion street, near Illinois, about 8:30 o'clock last night. A moment before she missed the garment she had her hand3 at her throat and clasped the hooks. She was in a crowd, and felt some cne tugging at the cape, but did not notice that it -was being stolen. She mised It almost lnstantlj. and searched for It on the ground, but was unable to find it, and is confident that It was stolen. She was hlKhly excited, and hastened home to her father with the story. Mr. Digins is a stanch Democrat, but ?ays he is completely disgusted with the lack of police protection which the present administration affords the citizens cf Indianapolis. "When you want to find a policeman," said he. "they are always In a saloon. The saloon men are the only people who are protected." Mr.tDlggtns is employed a.t the State-house. TraujrotCs Big Stolen. Louis Traugott, a saloon keeper-oi West Indianapolis, reported to the police that when he went to his stable yesterday morning" with the Intention of driving to this city he found his horse and buggy missing. He knows nothing more about it. The police cf West Indianapolis claim that they have heard nothing of the burglary of Al Thompson's house Friday night, an occurrence which was noted In yesterday's Journal. Thompson telephoned the police station here Friday night, asking that a lookout be kept for the burglar. Tiro Small Fires. There wre two small fires yesterday. A vacant house, at No. CS South State street, caught fire from sparks flying from a locorrcnlyo. The amount of the loss is unknown. A stable belonging to M. H. Stringer, at No. iTi Ncrth Se-r.ate avenue, caught fire from some unknown cau-se, and was damaged to the extent of $73, as estimated by the fire department. f 3 buys a CO equare Tiano, at Wulschner's this week; rnonthy paymcnLJ.

THE GREEN DIAMOND

IT WILIs BI2 Tlin SCEXI2 OF GOOD SPOIIT IX THIS CITV THIS WEEK. Manager AVntklna'a Fine Lot of ntching Material The Games, rrith PltUbargr. TJvse fho were at all disappointed in tlre4io-s is maju by Indianapoils in the ganie wir. pncfiinatl last Tuesday can takbV comfort fa the defeat ot. Cincinnati last "Friday and from rie experience Kanpas City had agilnst Fittsburg. Manning's men could gt only three hits In five innings off their old partner, Charley Hastings, and but one on! Goar, the New Castle llnd.) wonder, who Is going to help Fittsburg out this season. It Is a llttlo early for those players who iave had; Uttle practice tadoVmlicJi1 hitting. In the fall Cincinnati .wfl nWis sufij.an easy tlm downing Wakiris'js meiuTho teams will be on equal teVrtiB tilen, and' the games are sure to be close. Hansen will be at the park to-morrow for his first practice in an Indianapolis uniform. If all reports are true this . young plfcher is likely ' to strengthen tho champions not a little. There is much curiosity to see him, and the crowd at the game tomorrow will not ba long ia locating him. Dick Buckley will also come In for e. goodly share of attention. The big catcher has not been here for several years, lie was tho hero of numerous battles In the old Seventh-street grounda and ehould fit in Just as well at Cho present ball park. The Pittsburgs will attract big crowds to the ball grounds to-morrow and Tuesday. The game to-morrow afternoon win bo for the benefit of the Harry Wright monument fund, and all the receipts are tq be turned over to the committee in charge of the work of collecting money for thus honoring the memoryof a man who devoted his entire life to the great national game. When Connie Mack's men take the field to-morrow afternoon they will line up about as follows; Donovan, right; "Smith, left, Beckley, first; Henzel, center; , Lyons, third; Blerbauer, aecond; Ely, short; Merritt, catcher; Hastings, (pitcher; Goar, pitcher. This is the same team that trounced Kansas City last Tuesday, just at the same hour Indianapolis was being trampled upon by the Cincinnati Monroe will probably go In against Mack's men for. four or five innings, and then Hansen is like-ly to have a try at the big tellows. Last summer, at New Castle, Pa., the Pittsburgh were defeated, 5 to 3, owing to their inability to bit Monroe, who was in the box for New Oastle. They got only seven hits off him. That was in the middle of the season, however, when he was in thorough condition and when the weather was favorable. Kansas City has been trying a youngster named Hallowell in the box, where he has not been a glittering success. Pittsburg pounded him for seven runs in the opening Inning otf last Tuesday's game, and he lasted but two more Innings, during which the Pirates added four more runs to their score. Viox 1a plaing short-in .fine style for Manning, but Nyce is not doing so well at second. It will take A" good, lively man to cover all the ground Jimmy Manning did around second base. The latter Is not yet playing, and Menefee is doing the preliminary work In left field, where he had three errors out of eight' chances the other day. Klusman was the only one who secured a hit off Goar in that game with Pittsburg, above referred to. JBnes, Sammy Nichol and catcher Welch each got a hit off Hastings, and they were the only ones. The Milwaukees have been doing their practicing in a bowling alley up there, and the Minneapolis men have also had to stay indoors. Twltchell and Wllmon may be relied on, however, to have their players in good condition by the day the season opens. All the clubs have had bad weather to contend with this spring and. are about on an equal footing in that respect.lt won't take the players very long to loosen up after warm weather sets in for good. It must have come pretty near breaking old Pete Brownin j's heart Thursday at Louisville when he failed to' secure a hit off Hill, the amateur who pitched, for the Colonels. To cap the climax. Browning struck out In the ninth, ending the game with the bases full. How the bleachers must have roasted the Gladiator. With Monroe, Welmer, Hansen, Damon and Rieman on the pay roll Indianapolis has more pitchers than the team can carry very long. Two of these youngsters will be "farmed" within the next few weeks. Monroe is pretty sure of a berth with the champions all season, and there 13 little danger but that Hansen will Etay if he Is as good as he was last year. One of tha others may be kept part of the season if he demonstrates his fitness for fast company. Br The National League 6eason opens next Thursday and from' that time on the "fans" will be all attention. .It will keep them busy following the scores of the games and the records each day of their favorite players. One week from next Wednesday the Western League season begins, and then all Indianapolis lovers of the great game will be in clover, it la hoped, until next fall. After having had a taste of the championship It, will go hard with the "fans" to take even sacond place in the race this year. They don't want to stand anybody's dust. It promises to be a hotter fight than it was last season, though. The champions open with a team that Is considerably more formidable than last year.Jand that is Detroit. Vanderbeck has a lot of "scrappy" players on his team this seawn, and they are hitters, too, most of them. Stalllngs, Burnet and Knoll, the outfielders are all handy with the stick, and Sam Dungan is likely to be playing his old position by the 22d. and everybody knows what a terror he is to pitchers. Sam Mills, who played second for Indianapolis two years ago, is at that base for Detroit at present, but is likely to be supplanted by "Parson" Nicholson when the championship season opens, though ha Is hitting well and playing good ball. Grand Rapids will follow Detroit here and then the champions go up to those cities to play, stopping at Columbus on the way home. - The weather for the past week has been about as ill-disposed toward the great game as it possibly could be. There is promise of better things thin week, however, and If the promise is fulfilled the city will see some fine sport beginning with to-morrow. Connie Mack's Pittsburg team will put la two days practicing on the Western League champions or vice versa. Then comes Anson and his Chicago Colts for one game Wednesday. The Lnlverslty of Michigan team plays here Thursday, and these Ann Arbor boys put up a stiff game for a college ciud. The Fort Wayne club, which is managed and captained by George (Tebeau and Is Cleveland's kindergarten, is to be here Friday and Saturday, and Is said to play a strong game. Monday, April 20, the Clevelands come for one game, and as the Indianapolis men should be In fine trim by that time. Patsy Tebeau and his Spiders will likely be given a run for their money. To-morrow the ball grounds will resound with the whoops and howls of big Jake Beckley and the rest of the Pittsburg coachers. Everybody present will give a hand to Charley Hastings and Jet Goar when they appear in the fast company into which they graduated from" the Western League. They are fine fellows, both of them, and deserve to succeed in the big league. The Cincinnati Enquirer, among other tributes to the work of Watklns's men in Friday's game there, has the following: Those Hoosiers are pretty near good enough for the major league. They looked every inch champions in yesterdays game. W'attie can Well - be proud of this season's aggregation. They will cut a wide swath In the Western League. They are not only batters and fielders, but are good, hard-working, scrappy ball players. Hogriever and Stewart can make as much noise on the coaching lines as any players in the business. There Is no team in the League that the Indianapolis players like to defeat as well as they do the "Beds." It always piques a player to be released by a club and sent to minor company. Now, there are.no les3 than five players tn the Hocsler capital team who have at one time or anothsr figured in the white and red of the Cincinnati team. Motz. McCarthy, Hegriever. Cross and Phillips used to.be "Beds." Maybe their victory in yestcrdy'a can: 2 was net a i:ycu ensi 1

Hoosler camp was In the throes cf a grand ani glorious time last night." Well, that Friday's victory at Cincinnati certainly pushed Dan Monroe to the front as a pitcher, and he now looms up as one of the probable mainstays of the champions in the box. Not a base cn balls did he give in ten Innings. He hit nobody and had no wild pitches. He was steady as a clock In the face of the noisest coaching imaginable, and never once lost his nerve through all the ten close and exciting Innings. One of Monroe's strong suits ia his nerve, and that Is something rarely found in a young pitcher. It Is also an additional point in bis favor that the game was won on strange grounds and before an adverse crowd, where little sympathy was given or expected. Dungan has finally come to Vanderbeck's terms, and signed with Detroit, and now Vanderbeck is talking about being so well satisfied with Knoll and Burnet that he may have no place for Dungan. It ia safe to say he will make a place for hlra, however. Such talk Is all a bluff. Indianapolis could find room for Dungan and not lose any time doing It. besides putting up seme cash In addition. Here's a chance for Vanderbeck to make a good thing. He would as soon think of parting with Sam Dungan as of giving his franchise away. The Cincinnati Commercial Gazette says that Monroe's curves were as puzzling to the Cincinnati batters Friday as was his celebrated ancestor's doctrine to the English people during the recent Venezuelan imbroglio. It also says Indianapolis is stronger than either Louisville, SL Louis or Washington. ATHLETICS AT BUTLER. Baseball Team Will Play ttHIi Indiana, University To-Morrow. The baseball team of Butler College will play its first intercollegiate game to-morrow with the Indiana University team. This is not one of the games arranged' by the Intercollegiate League, but is on a private schedule. Indiana University has withdrawn from the league. The colleges remaining are Purdue, DePauw, Wabash and Rose Polytechnic. Earlham also !s a member, but only enters a track team. Indiana University has always been at the top In baseball, while less successful in football, and bo the students are awaiting anxiously tho returns from to-morrow's game. The Butler team consists of; Batteries, Mont Bevllls and Lon Roberts, John Cunningham and George Cook; first base, Lon Roberts; second base, Carl McGaughey; third base. Homer Cook; shortstop, Sam Dyson; left field. Clint Wallace; center field, J. Q. Davis (captain); right field, Ovid Ludlow: substitutes, J. Cunningham, Sam McGaughey end David Cale. This is much the best team Butler has put in the field for many years. Heretofore the baseball fever has been superseded by the ardor for football, and has not been well supported by the college athletes. But this season, through the efforts1 of Mr. Zlnk, professor of physical culture, many patrons of the game have been found, and a decided interest Is being taken In all athletics. Butler's schedule with the Intercollegiate League is as, follows: On April 18 she plays Purdue at Lafayette; on the 27th, DePauw at Greencastle; on May 2, Wabash at Crawford svi lie; on the 13d, Rose Polytechnic at Terre Haute. Last fall tennis became very popular among the students and also the members of the faculty. In the rear future the campus will have three courts owned by the men's fraternities, and teams for the intercollegiate field day, which will occur on May 29 at Lafayette, are already preparing for hard training. Butler Will also send a track team to Lafayette on the above date, twenty candidates for which are hard at work. This is, perhaps, the last year that Butler College will have an individual team. It Is more than probable that rhe football team next fall will wear upon their sweaters the I. U. . of . Indianapolis University, and that Indianapolis will have one of the successful teams of the West. . Baseball Jlotes. Outfielder Jimmy Bannon has been released by Boston. Tim Hurst will urrpire the opening games between Philadelphia and Boston. . New York's experimental southpaw pitcher, Seymour, is said to have a delivery resembling Breltensteln's. Connie Mack Is much pleased) with tho showing made by Goar and Hastings in the games at Hot Springs and Kansas City. Anson eays that Terry, whose dead arm was resurrected by gymnasium work, will pitch as good ball the coming season as he ever did in his life. Bergen, who caught for Jimmy Manning last year, and who is now on the Boston pay roll, has never played with the same dub two successive seasons. Little Cub Strieker realizes to his sorrow what a thankless thing it is to be a weak hitter. He would be a major Leaguer were it not for his weakness at the bat. Comiskey will not appear on the diamond this year. He has come to the conclusion that his baseball days are over. This year he will confine himself strictly to coaching. Frank Seelee is enamored of the playing of Wilson, the hard-hitting twlrler and outfielder of the Princeton team. But Wilson declines to enter the professional ranks. "It is announced that McGraw, Jennings and several other members of the Baltimore team, with the indorsement cf Manager Hanlon, are planning a trip to England and Ireland next fall to play clubs over there. Tf Dad Clark had pitched oftener In 1S34 the Giants would probably have won the championship that year. Even Johnnie Ward acknowledges his mistake in not giving Dad the show to which he was entitled," says Jack Crooks. Milwaukee's outfield Is not as strong as it ought to be. Twltchell is not a rapid fielder, and Weaver's place is generally conceded to be behind the bat, although he did well in center for several gamas last year. Nicol makes up the trio. Columbus Dispatch. In the spring of 1SS5 John L. Sullivan was paid $1,000 by Chris Von der Ahe for pitching three Innings for the St. Louis Browns, In an exhibition game. John offered to pitch for I10O a game In San Francisco last week. but the game is as dead out there as John L. is pugllistically. Milwaukee is loud In the praise of shortstop Wetterer. Of his work in a recent game the Wisconsin says: "The feature of rhe afternoon's work was the flaying of Wetterer at short. He handles himself like a major, and if he keeps up the gait there is no doubt of his filling the bill at short. "When 0. F. Caylor was the official scorer for the New York club he would give the Giants credit for a stolen base when the base runner advanced two bags on a base hit." says J. Earl Wagner. "This liberality jollied the New York players' base runrdnKOf course, Caylor wasn't so liberal to visiting teams." Jim Connors, the much-wanted second baseman, is to play In Grand Rapids this

season. The long controversy has practically been settled by President Johnson, who, in a telegram to Captain Carney, has the fol lowing to say: "Connors cannot play In Minneapolis. Better notify him. Have written and telegraphed Minneapolis." Shearon will be a fixture on the Cleveland team, aa Tebeau says he Is ju?t as gooi a fielder and runner as Blake or Grey and a much better batter. Grey will be farmed out and Blake kept for extra man. Delehanty will be played on third until McGair rounds up in the warm weather. Captain Tebe-iu is well pleased at the 6hape the ream is in. Jake Beckley seems to improve with years. Jake gave the keynote to his reputation In lMi. when he covered first base for Chris. Von der Ahe's Whites, of the old Western Association. When the Whites were disbanded and the players sold Von der Ahe wanted to retain Beckley and play him in the outfield, but Comiskey objected Derhans because Jake might have clashed with Comiskey as a first baseman. !Tony Mullane was the most phenomenal SItcher on the diamond," says catcher Jim IcGuire, of Washington. "He was always In condition to pitch and never complained of a sore arm, and it is my impression that he has lost none of his skill or strength, though naturally he isn't stuck on pitching if he can play some other position first base," especially and get as much money. Tony was a natural-born athlete. When he was a kid he was a crack roller skater. He was proud of his shape, and had reasons to be, as he was one of the finest-made men on the diamond. He could pitch pretty fair ball with his left hand, and once in a while he tried the left hand on weak, e&uthwinged batters." A BrIlitrood Character. Sallie Hill, a well-known character of Brightwood, . was fined for drunkenness and profanity in Justice Nickerson's court yesterday afternoon. Fred Miller, marshal of Brightwood. was the prosecuting witness. He said that he found the woman on the streets, badly intoxicated and creating quite a disturbance. In default of the payment of the fine, amounting with costs to ttL the woman was sent to jail. MrtH--M--aBv-i-aH-aHa-MMM The evangelistic meetings held by the pastor, the Rev. D. R.
