The heavy rains which have been general all over the country give promise of heavy crops. Harvests in previous years have amounted in value to an annual average of Jails,0)0,000 and this year will show a substantial increase. The postoffice department and the telegraphs owned by the government show' a remarkable increase of business. Referring to the question of the decline in silver as affecting the tinancea of Mexico, the President says: "Unfortunately the present fiscal year does not begin under as good auspices as the previous one, for the excessive weakness and fluctuations of silver. often sudden and violent in their character, have so influenced economic situations of the country that it is demanding the serious attention of the government and has caused the adoption ot measures of prudence, all expenses not absolutely necessary being postponed or reduced. The magnitude and sudden character of the present perturbation in silver certainly do not correspond to the known causes which have produce#! it and therefore there are wellrounded motives for expecting that the factors, more or less artificial, which may have had an influence In the decline of silver will be of short duration and may even soon bring about a favorable reaction. There is not. therefore, for the present any serious reason for alarm. The nation will be able to pass through this difficult period confronting It with the same serenity which It displayed a few years ago when the cause produced alarm.” In conclusion the President assured Congress that there w as every reason for congratulation on the state of the country, which steadily grows richer, while the government revenue is continually increasing. “There is only one thing to be regretted.” he said, “and that is the single cause, entirely outside of the power of the country to control, which threatens to disturb the foreign trade of the republic and easy financial situation of the government. The recent decline In silver, which, if continued end aggravated, might occasion serious consequences, only encourages national exportation and manufactures while tbe temporary nature of this decline, acording to the reports received by the executive, permits the indulgence of the hope that the situation will soon clear up and in any event the national treasury i properly prepared io meet it.” WRECK ON THE WABASH.

Godfrey Hunter and other defendants under Joint Indictment for alleged conspiracy in an attepipt to bribe three legislators for $C,009 each to vote for Hunter in the recent senatorial race closed as sensationally as the most curious of spectators could have hoped. The verdict of the public, so far as Dr. Hunter is concerned, has all along seemed to turn on the question of whether Hunter was on the night of April 1 at the home of Noel Gaines, one of the defendants and the man who says he was trying to trap Hunter and defeat his plan for election as United States senator. Other defendants have confessed that they were at Gaines’s house and went as friends of Hunter to see what was In tbe Gaines stories about Hunter’s chances to get some Democratic votes, but Hunter himself as always bitterly denied and still denies and WtU swear that he was never In the Gaines houss or even knew the man.

Gaines and his wife l ave before the "rand Jury told the same story and Tanner’s testimony this afternoon received the corroboration of circumstantial evidence given by other witnesses. All the defendants, several Important prosecuting witnesses and most of the prominent politicians of the State are yet to testify. POSTMASTER SHOT.

Special to the Indianapolis journal. TERRE HAUTE, Ind., Sept. 16.-Sup-posed fatal Texas fever has broken out among the cattle in the southwest part of Vigo county. Already fifteen animals are dead and over 300 are said to be dangerously sick. Dr. Willis, secretary of the County Board of Health, was called on to investigate, and on farms in the Prairie creek bottoms he found fifteen dead bodies lying around with protruding tongues and distended abdomens. Strict quarantine has been established. State Veterinarian F. A. Balser, of New Castle, has been telegraphed to come at once. Several of the infected cattle were purchased at St. Louis in July. Quarantine Against Kentucky. WASHINGTON, Sept. IG.-Secretary Wilson is informed that the Illinois Board of Live Stock Commissioners probably will quarantine all cattle shipped to that State from Kentucky. There have been a number of outbreaks of Texas fever in Illinois recently, caused by cattle shipped in violation of the federal and state regulations from Texas, Arkansas and Tennessee. It is asserted that infected cattle are now being driven across the quarantine line, shipped to Louisville and rebilled to points in Illinois. The latter State has already quarantined against Arkansas and Tennessee. The federal law is not very specific In regard to this disease. It provides that the disease shall not be considered contagious or infectious as to cattle being transported by rail to market for slaughter, when they are unloaded only to be led and watered in lot 5 on the way. The officials of the Department of Agriculture think further legislation is necessary to deline the powers of the department, and they hope that the losses sustained in these and through these local quarantines will lead to a demand for adequate control by‘the general government. The authority of the department m regard to export cattle is clear, and ampie precautions are being taken to prevent the infection of these animals. * REUNIOX OF THE EIGHTY-FOURTH.

It is reassuring to learn from the New Orleans Picayune that the yellow fever has arrived too late to be a serious menace. The disease has never become seriously dangerous or fatal, says the Picayune, unless it started in the hot months of May, June or July. From 1847 to 1878 there wrere seven great'epidemics of yellow fever; one began In January, two in May, three in June and one in July. In the whole thirty years there was not a single year in which the mortality was heavy unless the disease got an early start. The comparative immunity of New Orleans since 1878 indicates how much sanitary science has done to deprive these epidemics of their terrors. Years ago humanity stood almost helpless before yellow fever, smallpox and the bubonic plague. Four centuries ago th© last, under the name of the black death, carried off a quarter of the population of Europe and was the occasion of the institution of the quarantine; this year the same disea*e has caused great horror by its ravages in India, and yet even in that unsanitary land the mortality due to it is small relatively to the population.

MOB HAD EASY WORK. (Concluded from First Fsijje.) of adding to the depression and gloom that hung over the place. THE FEELING IN OSGOOD. “The general sentiment here,” said a prominent Osgood mei r nant to-day, “is that the mob was justifiable. I cannot illustrate this better than by relating a conversation I had with one of my customers, a German from the northern part of the county. I expressed the opinion that the crime had been a little too brutal.” “Suppose,” said he, “you had been tortured by having your feet held over hot coals to make you tell where what little money you had was concealed—would you then consider it a little too brutal?” “Os course, I could make no answer to such argument. 1 do think, however, that the mob was too brutal. There was no reason why they should have been dragged through the street like hogs. 1 think you will find that w'hile most people think the mob was justified, at the same time they will admit that this was a little too severe.” Osgood citizens declare that they knew nothing that would lead them to expect the lynching before it occurred, and said that the news was a terrible surprise. They assert that but few, if any, members of the mob came from here. The feeling is that the mob came mainly from the north part of the county, although it is reported that a trainload of passengers from the vicinity of Seymour and other towns west of here was let off at Vine Springs, a station a mile east of Osgood and on the direct line to Versailles. Indeed, to reach Versailles frcm that station travelers would have to pass over the lonely road that winds along the wild bluffs of Laughery creek and Gordon’s Leap, and ends at the foot of the hill where the mob met to mask. Their horses were hitched here. Red bandana handkerchiefs, new and still creased as they cam i from the store, and scraps of black cloth were found at this point with one or two masks. Other masks were found under the fatal elm tree. All these relics are in the hands of the authorities and may give some inkling to the identity of the lynchers. Not a few' persons say that the mob of Tuesday night was composed of “Whitecappers” from the vicinity of Seymour and other places that have been visited by that fraternity. This is not generally believed. Citizens of Osgood complain that every time any depredations have been committed in the southern section of the State the discredit has at once been heaped on that town. They say that Osgood is no w'orse than other towns, but that it gets the blame for everything that happens. R. C.

STORY OF EYEWITNESSES. Jail Prisoners McMiJlen nml Kelley, Who Saw the Ringleaders. Staff Correspondence of the Journal. VERSAILLES, Ind., Sept. IS.—McMiJlen, one of the prisoners who escaped hanging, has been admitted to bail. He was held tor carrying concealed weapons. Charley Kelly, the other prisoner who escaped, is a boy of fifteen years. His home is in Shelbyville. He was incarcerated for breaking into a marble shop. He was with Levi, Jenkins and Schueter on the first floor. Said he: “I heard the men coming and Levi thought it was some of his friends. When the men came to the corridor door they pushed guns through the bars and told us to come out. I came out and they told me they did not want me. Then they opened the door and came into the cell corridor. Schueter came out of his cell first, and one of the men knocked him down with a club. He got up and staggered into % a cell, and two of the men beat him over the head with clubs. It was an awful sight, and I begged the men to let him alone. Levi came out next. He had a knife in his hand. He w r as knocked down and the men shot him. While this was going on two other men put their guns in Jenkins's cell and shot him. They then put ropes around their necks and dragged them out. I am certain they were all dead. The corridor was full of blood, and I have seen the whole thing a dozen times since. I know I shall die if I have to stay here another night.” “We will have to handcuff you if we let you out,” said the jailer. “Handcuff my hands and feet and then tie me to a board —only take me out of here,” pleaded Kelly, apd his request was granted. R. C. The Coroner’* Inqnent. Staff Correspondence of the Journal. VERSAILLES, Ind., Sept. 16.—There Is no coroner in this county, as the office was made vacant by the removal of the coroner to another county. Justice of the Peace Charles Laswell held an inquest over the bodies. To-day a number of witnesses were examined, but the evidence was not all heard and a verdict was not reached by the acting coroner. He said, however, that unless something very different from w’hat has already been produced comes out in the additional testimony, he wil simply find that Levi, Jenkins and Schueter were killed by “unknown persons” after w r hich they were dragged through the street and hung, and that Gordon and Andrews came to their death by hanging at the hands of unknown men. Among the witnesses yet to be examined by the justice are the three deputy sheriffs who “flunked” when the jail was stormed. R. C.

A RESCUE FRUSTRATED. Friend* of Osgood Robber* Hnd Threatened to Raid Versailles Jail. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. BATESVILLE, Ind., Sept. 16.—Every one at this end of Ripley county seem relieved to know that the sang of Osgood robbers has been broken up. The law would have been allowed to take its course, but on Tuesday at the preliminary trial at Versailles the whole gang of sympathizers of the thieves went to Versailles and openly made their threats that they would have revenge on Sheriff Busching and all who had assisted in the capture and arrest of the thieves. Two of them abused Pete Hostutler. who trapped the gang, and he promptly knocked them down. The thieves could not give bail and all five were again put in jail. Various arrests have been made in past years for robberies but tiie thieves were always able to go into court and prove an alibi with the assistance of members of the gang, who had apparently been left at homo for that purpose. The respectable people of Osgood were afraid to testify against the gang and they gave notice to the people outside that the gang was planning vengeance for the arrest of the robbers. The notorious Rittenhouse said that Osgood would go to Versailles and “clean out the town.” The farmers feared the prisoners would be rescued by their Osgood friends and determined to deal out justice before there was an opportunity to raid the jail. It is generally believed that had the thieves and their friends not made their threats of revenge the wholesale lynching would not have occurred. As the remaining members of the gang of thieves are now known it is thought they will disband and go elsewhere and thus leave Osgood a respectable town. PETE HOSTETTLEJI’S RECORD. The Pugilist Booking for Character Voucher* in Kokomo. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. KOKOMO, Ind., Sept. 16.—Pete Hostettler, the man who stood in with the gang of .Ripley county robbers and betrayed them to the officials, was here to-day. Hostettler lived in Kokomo until eighteen months ago. when he and his mother moved to Ripley county. His object in coming here to-day was to procure certificates of good character from his old neighbors. An element of Ripley county Is thirsting for Hostettler’s blood, believing him to be equally guilty w r ith the five that, were lynched. Hostettler did not succeed in getting manv certificates of character and he departed on the next train. Marshal Bennett and several others were appealed to. but with small result. Hostettler when he lived here was considered a tough character, being nearly always in trouble, though never arrested for any serious offense. He was a witness in the Lowery murder mystery trial eighteen months ago. Where he went to on leaving here to-day is unknown. He is a plasterer by trade. MESSAGE FROM MR. MOORES. So Fear of Further Lawlessness— Prosecution of Lyncher*. Governor Mount had no message yesterday from the Ripley county officials, but he was advised in a> genera) way of the condition of affairs at the scene of the lynching by Deputy Attorney General Moores. His message from Mr. Moores is embodied in a telegram which the Governor sent, by request, to a New York paper last night. The telegram was as follows: "Every mean* at the command of the executive authority of the State will be

promptly and vigorously employed in the prosecution of all persons found guilty of participation in the Ripley county lynching In the carrying out of this policy I am abundantly assured of the cordial support and hearty co-operation of the citizens of Indiana. The people of the State are law-abiding, and there is universal regret, not unmixed with positive indignation, that the fair name of Indiana should be smirched by this wholly unexpected outbreak of lawlessness. At the earliest possible moment I sent the deputy attorney general to the isolated scon** of the tragedy with instructions to use all the power of the State in bringing to speedy justice the perpetrators of the outrage at Versailles. I have just received a telegram from the deputy attorney general saying: ‘All quiet last night; no probability of any further outbreak. Rioters all from Ripley county. Judge New lias charged grand jury to investigate, and the jury is now at work. I shall assist Prosecutor Connelly.' 1 have no fear of further outbreak, and it is my earnest purpose to nush the investigation with the least possible delay and with all the power at my command. The deputy attorney general at the scene is empowered to employ all the functions of his office, as well as that of the chief executive, and the work of righting the wrong, so far as possible, is already actively in progress.” How Gordon’s Was Named. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. GREENSBURG, Ind., Sept. 16.—Gordon’s Leap is mentioned in connection with the lynching at Versailles and it probably would not be amiss to give the history of how the place came to be called by that name. Maj. Jonathan W. Gordon, now dead, was at one time a medical student in Versailles, and in the course of his studies he w 7 os advised by his preceptor to procure a “stiff,” and as a result several graves were robbed and the people of that town and the friends of the dead formed posses to catch the body snatcher. One night the watchers saw a man in tho act of robbing a grave and pursued him, the posse dividing in two squads. Seeing - the man make for the hills of Laughrey, near by, they cut off every avenue of escape except down a steep precipice of nearly one hundred feet. So closely did they press him he was seen in the light of the moon to leap from this precipice and his form disappeared in the darkness. Supposing the man to be dead, the pursuers marched around the hill and into the hollow below 7 , expecting to find his dead body. In this they were disappointed, for the grave robber had made good his escape and his name was not known until after the w T ar, when Major Gordon told the story in a speech delivered at Versailles, when he graphically described his escape and the fearful leap he made into the top of a tree whose boughs let him dow 7 n gently to the ground. Ever after this the place was know*n as Gordon's Leap. Major Gordon once told the writer that as he watched the mob getting closer and closer to his hiding place he was seized with a shivering chill, which shook him from head to foot, and in his desperation he leaped from the high precipice into the boughs of a tree w’hich broke the force of the fall and thus saved his life.

How Railroad Accidents Occur. Philadelphia Press. Attention was called the other day to the fact that all accidents are caused by carelessness. The railw r ay disaster in Colorado. in which thirty persons were killed, is a case in point. A conductor made a mistake of ten minutes in his calculations. About fifteen years ago three horrible accidents occurred on the rail In the same year. One was at Greenfield. Mass., another at Dedham, Mass., and a third at White River Junction, Vt. All were caused by carelessness, and over thirty persons were killed in each. A veteran telegraph operator discussing these wrecks yesterday said: "It is very easy to make a mistake that will cost many lives. I made one myself, when a boy, and the memory of it is still like a nightmare. I was employed as operator at a station in New Jersey and one evening received orders to hold a freight train until the southbond passenger train had passed. Both trains were late. I believed I had time to go to supper before the freight train would arrive. I took the chances when I should have remained in the office. I was at the table eating my supper when I heard the freight go past at a high rate of speed. I realized at once that a catastrophe must occur within a few minutes. I rushed to the office and called frantically to the operator at the next station to hold the passenger train, but it had already passed. I knew that a collision was inevitable. All I could do was to report the facts to the dispatcher, who sent out a ielief train with physicians even before the collision had occurred. Two men yvere killed and over thirty injured.” It is a remarkable fact that in most railw'ay disasters the number of killed and injured is almost invariably in the neighborhood of thirty. Pointer for Mine Owner*. Philadelphia Record. But the blood at Lattimer will not have been shed altogether in vain if it shall impress upon the striking miners the danger of tampering with the laws for preserving the peace and of infringing upon the personal rights of others. It should at the same time impress upon the great coal corporations the truth that they are not w'holly exempt from obligations toward the ignorant strangers w ho have been imported from far to work their mines. Those companies which will keep stores at the mouths of their mines to filch from labor a part of its slender earnings could not seize upon a more fitting occasion for giving up this iniquitous system. That there is no excuse for this practioe is seen by the fact that other companies pay weekly wages in cash, and that these corporations have the least trouble with their miners. The coal companies wrnuld also do well to remember that in the condition to which they have reduced labor no other is within their reach than that of the ignorant but fierce and inflamable Huns. In this situation they owe it to the people of Pennsylvania to so manage their business relations with these strangers as not to involve the frequent expense of sending a large body of militia into the coal regions in to maintain the supremacy of the laws.

The Meade Pension Case. Washington Special. The Pension Office rejected an application for a pension filed by the widow of the late Rear Admiral R. W. Meade. A petition tor a rehearing of the case has been filed by a brother of the late admiral, and the case is assuming an aspect interesting to navy people and the general public as well. It has heretofore beeri the practice of the Pension Office to place a liberal construction on the laws when widows of distinguished officers of the army or the navy applied for a pension, but in this instance the policy has been exactly thp reverse. It is shown that physicians and surgeons were in frequent attendance upon Admiral Meade and had him under treatment for disabilities received during the war, but the examiners held that inasmuch as he was able to maintain his position on the active list of the navy up to tne age of retirement his widow was not entitled to a pension. When the case is re opened, if it should be, proof will be ottered that the admiral might have retired many years ago on account of general debility caused by injuries received during the wai of the rebellion, if he had so desired, and that the government will be committing a mean act if it should refuse to give his widow a modest pension. Admiral Meade was one of the most distinguished officers in the navy. Got Even at Last. Wichita Eagle. Two farmers lived side by side In Kansas. Last fall one was free sliver; the other gold standard. The gold-standard man refused then to discuss the question. The silver man would follow him up and rain questions and abuse in upon him. The goldstandard farmer would not answer, but went on about his business, saying that he might be mistaken, but he didn't think he was. The other day the silver man called on the mild neighbor and said: "I used to be mean and rude in what I said to you about the gold standard. I was wrong. Silver and wheat did not stick together. I was wrong. I’m sorry for what I said.” Then up spoke the mild man; “Oh, that’s all right you wall-eyed son of a dissipated sea cook. That’s all right. Sorry, eh? You red-headed, squint-eyed snoozer. Acknowledge you’re wrong, eh? You lop-sided, spavined old fool.” Then he walked into the silver farmer and distributed him and his clothing all over a forty-acre field and said in parting: “There are just ninetyeight farmers like you who rubbed it in on me last fall. Send ’em around, please, when you have time." The* Only Famine. Philadelphia Record. The only famine in this country this year is the "car famine." The steamship Canada sailed from Boston yesterday with only 90,000 bushels of grain, though booked to freight 200,00) bushels. This was due to the nonarrival of wheat and corn from the West, which in turn was due to a lack or ears. The transportation masters should give the ear builders a nod. and the car builders should give their operatives a wink; and the backbone of the "famine" would soon be broken. .Ind Brina by tlie Picture*.

YOU CANNOT CURE PILES By Internal Remedies. The only sure way to cure every form of piles is to use a remedy like the Pyramid Pile Cure w'hich is applied directly to the parts affected and its wonderful healing effects are apparent from the first application because the medicinal properties are rapidly absorbed by tissues and sensitive membranes.of the rectum, and the cure Is made speedily and almost before the patient is aware of it, every trace of pile* has left him. This is one of the reasons why the Pyramid Pile Cure has been so uniformly successful. It is applied directly just where it is needed and where it will do the most good. Not by the roundabout way of the stomach nor by the harsh, barbarous methods of various surgical operations and socalled systems. Direct application to the seat of disease is the only rational way, and this is fully accomplished by the Pyramid Pile Cure. If the voluntary testimony of thousand* who have tried this remedy Is worth anything then no sufferer has any excuse for longer delaying in giving it a fair trial, knowing that w hen you do so the Pyramid Pile Cure will have made one mote friend, the best possible advertisement we can have. The chief advantages of the remedy are: It cures without pain, the cure is lasting, it contains no poison, and lastly, it Is the cheapest and quickest cure yet found. Y'our druggist can tell you what it has done for others. Sold by druggists at 50c and $1 per package. A book on cause and cure of piles mailed free, by addressing Pyramid Drug Company. Albion, Mich. TALKED SILVErTIOST GOLD. Orator Patterson Relieved of a Watcb at the Fair Grounds. “Talky Bill” Patterson went out to the state fair grounds yesterday afternoon. While moving about in the crowd it struck him that this was an admirable time to sow a few free-silver thoughts and he in some manner engaged the attention of one or two men. Soon ‘’Talky Bill” had a considerable crowd of farmers about him and he launched forth into an extended harangue on his lavorite hobby. It appears, however, according to reiorts, that Mr. Patterson's audience was not entirely composed of sllverites. There was evident'v an admirer of the yellow metal present, for when the orator concluded he fuund that his gold watch had been deftly purloined from his i>ocket. The watch was not recovered. ACTON TRUSTEES RESIGN. Quorum Broken and No Meeting: of Board Held. The trustees of Acton Park were to have a meeting ti ls week to authorize the undertaking ot improvements at the park, but three of the board instead of attending the meeting sent in their resignations, thereby breaking a uuorutn and complicating matters to such an extent as to render it doubtful if the proposed improvements can be carried out this season. Those reported to have resigned are Rev. Robert Roberts, J. J. Alexander and A. A. Young. The remaining members of the board held a meeting and declined to accept the resignations, ami efforts will be made to Induce the withdrawing trustees to resign or.e at a time so that the board may legally proceed to fill their places. Died at the Turner*’ Hall. A peculiar death occurred Wednesday afternoon at the Turners' Hall, on South Meridian street. Frederick Kegel, the nine-year-old son of William Kegel, 93 Weghorst street, dropped dead and it is the belief of the coroner that he was a victim of heart disease, which is rare in children, 'the boy wus playing about the hall when he staggered and fell over. When his teacher picked him up he was dead.

Mrs. Ellen Dorgan Found. Mrs. Ellen Dorgan, of No. 87 Leota street, who has been missing for several days, was found last night at the residence of John Shea, at Market street and Arsenal avenue. MRS. JEFFERSON DAVIS, Why She No Longer Occupies th* Beautiful Home at Beauvoir. Washington Post. Hon. A. M. Dahlgren, of Mississippi, collector of customs for the Peace-river district of that State, who has been in the city for several days, is a nephew of the late Admiral Dahlgren. His father moved South in his early manhood and became the husband of a beautiful Mississippi girl, a member of one of the first families of that State. He therefore cast his lotvwith the Southern Confederacy, and, though all of his kinsmen and friends in his native Keystone State sadly lamented his defection, they could not help but appreciate and respect his motives. Mr. A. M. Dahlgren studied law for some years under Jefferson Davis, tho President of the Confederate States, and the intimacy between the two families was of no ordinary nature. It was Mrs. Dorsey 7, the sister of Mr. Dahlgren, a lady of great literary attainments and brilliant mind, who presented Mr. Davis witli the beautiful estate known as Beauvoir, fronting the Gulf of Mexico, on which he passed the last days of his life and where lie penned his story of the great conflict between the States in which he had himself been such a prominent actor. At Beauvoir Mortimer Dahlgren passed a good many years, and his acquaintance with ex-President Davis and his family was such that a Post reporter ventured to ask him his opinion of the recent criticisms that have been passed on Mrs. Davis and her daughter. Miss Winnie, in regard for their seeming preference for a residence in New York and New England rather than for dwelling among their oldtime friends in the South. “I am aware,” said Mr. Dahlgren. “that much criticism has been directed at Mrs. DHvis and Miss Davis on this account, and once in New York I frankly told Mrs. Davis of the extent of this feeling in the South. Her explanation to me was full, and no doubt sincere. She said that Beauvoir was isolated and that oft*n it was not easy to procure the comforts and conveniences of life in that comparatively remote place. Even proper domestic help w 7 as difficult to obtain at all times. Then, again. Beauvoir was a Mecca for sightseers and curiosity mongers, many of whom, even when shown the hospitality of the place, could not forbear to snerer. “But over and beyond this the chief reason for her continued residence in the North, Mrs. Davis said, was the advice of her physician. Her health imperatively demanded that she should have residence by 7 the seaside, and as this was impracticable anywhere else in thte South except at Beauvoir, she was in a way forced to stay in Northern cities, where all climatic conditions were favorable.” The Davises have not betn at Beauvoir in five or six years. The old place is looked after by an aged white couple, and contains many beautiful pictures and valuable books and papers that wqre thY‘ property of the one-time idol of the South. The house itself wars built of solid timbers, and will last for many years. Thousands ore Trying It.
