"The combination show of the Poultry, Pigeon and Pet Stock Associations at TomUnion's Hall the coming week promises to eclipse any previous exhibition of tho kind held in this city, the managers claim, and to equal any that have been given in the country. The management Iproud of the large entries in all departments. The. poultry department is unusually large and the exhibits come from all sections of the country, not, as heretofore, confined to Indiana and a few neighboring States. Many foreign exhibitors are now here with their birds, and when the members of the association arrive with their quota it is expected that the main floor will not proVide sufficient space to properly house them. Aside from the city and State exhibitors, J. TJ. Dair. of Harrison, O.; 'Frederick G. Kifert, of Springfield. III.; 11. L. Keller, of Tiffin, O.: C. YV. Rudolf, of Hamilton. O.; August Itopke, of Louisville; Warren Browning", of Vandalia. 111.; S. W. Corwin, of tJrass Lake. Mien., and several exhibitors from Pennsylvania and New York have secured space. The numerous cash prizes and the Increased number of specials have given aa increased interest to the event. The pigeon department is showing up remarkably well. Some beautiful bird are already on hand and the following members of the national association will send from fifty to LV) pigeons: C. M. Sweenee, Detroit; K. A. Allen. Pittsburg; C. W. Williamson, Milwaukee; Sam Cassidy, Louisville; Edward It. Page. Louisville; C. W. Robinson. Peoria; Mr. Tausen. Springfield, 111., and tleorge W. McLead. Louisville. A department which lends additional interest is that of the doss, and these are E resent in large numbers, everything from loodhounds. St. Eernard's, mastiffs, pointers, setters and collies to the miscellaneous dog. Among this display is a magnWicent specimen of the St. Iternard breed that has been sold to a gentleman in Germany and will be shipped there as soon as the show cloes. The attractions of more than passing notice are the wild animals under the care and direction of Colonel Eoone. These consist of lions, wolves. Siberian bloodhounds and English mastiffs. The colonel will give seven performances each day with his pets." One of the feats is a drill of the lions conducted by one of the hounds, seesawing, hounds leaping over objects held by the lions and many new tricks. Owing to the great number of exhibits, the doors will not be open to the public untii Tuesday at 0 a. m.. after which there will be a continuous exhibit until Saturday night. The fox chase will take place on Wednesday afternoon. ONLY SINGLETON HELD. Porter nntl AVhltr. Charged ltti VorIil Murder, Releuncd. V.'ill Porter and George White, two of the colored men trrested on account of the murder of Calvin Vorhls, have been released from the county juil. After the arrest of Harvey Singleton the grand Jury recommended their release, the evidence leading to the conclusion that the fatal shot was fired by Singleton.

They will be on hand to respond to calls for police, Pichards to go on such calls as may demand tho attention of a detective. Folding Ceda at all trices. Wxn. L. Zlderv
The executive committee of the monetary convention held a meeting yesterday afternoon and determined upon a number of minor details about the convention. The most important point that developed was tho reciept of a telegram from William E. Dodge, of New York, stating that his name could not be considered In connection with the duty of presiding over the convention. There had been much talk of Mr. Dodge in this capacity and one of the members of the committee wrote to him asking if ho might suggest his name in this connection, and this brought tho answer from Mr. Dodge that his health was such that he could rot possibly serve. There is talk of making' ex-Govrrnor E. O. Stannard, of Missouri, temporary chairman of the convention, and it is probable that the subcommittee will suggest him for this office to the full executive committee when it meets here the day before the convention. The committee yesterday determined to hold the convention in Tomlinson Hall and left- the arrangements of the hall to a subcommittee, headed by G. G. Tanner. Most of th great stage space will probably be cut off and a speakers' stand erected just in front of and a couple of steps below the rtage. On either side of this will be arranged the press tables. Th appointment of a se rgeant-at-arms will be cft to this committee, and it is probable that it wl:l bo offered to W. F. C. Golt. The matter of delegates' badges was left to Mr. Hanna. It was decided to appoint a general reception committee composed or 210 business mm of the city, and the committee will hold another meeting to-morrow afternoon to consider the question of making out this list. The executive committee has received the names of somethtng cer 'Jt'1) delegates, representing fifty cities, ai d enough other cities have indicated their Intention of sending delegates to make a convention composed of about M men. The personnel of the convention thus far reported is very high and the chairman believes it will prove far the strongest and most representative gathering of business men the country bns ever known. The following li&t of delegates was received yesterday: Rochester. X. Y. Charles T. Brown. Edward Harris, Frederick Cook, Kut'us A. Sibley. John N. Iteckley and William C. Carry Minneapolis. Minn. W. P. Dunwocdy and F. H. Pcaday. McKeesport. Pa. John K. Shelly. W. P. Wampier and W. P. Abbott. Qulncy. III. C II. Williamson. E. J. Parker. W. P. I'rham and J. L. Morgan. Middletown. Conn. Governor O. Vincent Coffin. INDIANA'S HEAVY VOTE
STATE STATISTICIAN PROVES THE INCREASE A NATS.' It A L ONE. An Anmver to Critics Who Have Failed to See the State Wonderful lleccitt Crowtli. Recently the Springfield Republican and some ether Eastern newspapers commented unfavorably upon the lare increase of the vote in Indiana, as compared with the number of males of voting age given by the last census. L'ion this basis Senator Alien, of Nebraska, has Introduced in the Senate a resolution for the investigation of alleged election frauds in this State. The fight has not been taken up by Democratic papers in this State, because they understand thoroughly that the Indiana election lawis of such a character and is so w'i enforced that frauds on a large scale would be impossible. In this connection the str.te statistician, S. J. Thompson, has made a comparison of figures that is Interesting, and yesterday he made the following statement: "In this connection a study of the figures of former elections is of interest. In 1X:J the total vote was 477.1112; in 1SI2, a presidential election, the vote was i53,613, an increase of T6.07U. In ISO I the vote was 5tJ2,t52, an increase over 1VJ2 of 9.0G9. In lSUti the vote was C3T.119, an increase over the vote of 1S94 of 74,437, or l.33 l3ss than tfie increased vote in the presidential year ot 1M'2 ever the preceding election. "These critics say that by the census of ISC0 the males of voting age in the State numbered that the vote at the late election was C37.11t. showing an increase of votes over the number of voters in IM'0 of 42.0.". and claim that that is evidence of fraud. These gentlemen have no just conception of the marvelous increase m population and wealth as well, in lndl-.mi, under the stimulus of natural gas. oil, etc. Fortunately, however, we are not left to conjecture as to the increase of voters in the State. Under the law the .trustee of each township is reejulred every :;ix years to enumerate the voters, giving name and age, report the same to the county auditor, who tabulates these reports by counties and makes reports to the state auditor. This work Is required to be done between January and July 1, the average time being May 1. The last enumeration was taken in 1S15. just five years after the census report, and shows the number of voters in 1S15 to have been 627.072. an increase over the iJj.Mwi of the census report of 32.0;;. and accounts for 32.000 of the 42,053 increased voters which alarmed our critic's. The Increase of 32.00i' in five years would make an average annual increase of C.401, and as it was one and one-half years from the time this enumeration was taken in May, 1S1C. until the election in 182G. at the same ratio the increase for this ytar and a half would be 9.C01. Adding tho shown increase for the five years. Z'2,WS. and the estimated increase of O.01 for the year and a half and we would have 41.C07 of cur critics increase of 42.0."3. Indiana is ready for Senator Allen's investigation." FROM CARBOLIC ACID. An Autopwy SIioivm Prohnble Cnunc of JumcM P. Atlterton'H Deuth. An autopsy was held yesterday by Coroner Iirayton at Blanchard's undertaking establishment on the body of James P. Atherton. Atherton died last Wednesday night at the home of Mrs. James Hackney, 32 North Senate avenue, under peculiar circumstances which lent suspicion to suicide. Dr. Prayton says the autopsy showed unmistakable signs or caroollc arid In the stomach and that death doubtless came from this method of poisoning. He is having sections of the stomach prepared for more careful examination, though he has no doubt as to the fact of the presence of carbolic acid. New Rolling: Mill Project. rians for the new rolling mill which Is talked of for Indianapolis are being: pushed forward as rapidly as possible. Morgan & Morgan, attorneys for the company which controls the new patent, say they do not know yet where the new plant will be established. Inducements have been offered by several towns in Indiana, one from Aurora being especially good. It has practically been decided to build a twelveinch mill. tut further than that no definite plans for buildings nave been made. Plds from various contractors have been received on plants of different sizes, but the contract will probably not be awarded for some time to come. Flower 3!lslon Fair Receipt. The treasurer of the recent fair held by the Flower Mission has made his report, showing as the result of the fair the following: Amount received by solicitations. J1.0S7.73; amount of booth sales, $2,813.57; amount .of ticket sales, $1,337.43; check-room receipts. $33.20; door receipts during day, &2.75; total receipts, $5,324.70.
