Drake, of Shelbyville, called on Governor Mount yesterday to exhibit dead four--1 cund bass which he had picked from the surface of Blue river in the morning. Dr. Drake said that millions of fish had been killed. Governor Mount expressed Indignation, and said he hoped the prosecuting attorney would take action at once. He also declared his intention of using his influence in the next Legislature to secure a law that would stop the pollution of streams by straw-board works. It is the intention of Dr. Drake to call the attention of Fish Commissioner Sweeney, at Columbus, to the destruction of fish. No Fire, bat the G* Exploded.

ELECTION OF TRUSTEES ♦ ARGUMENT IX WHITLEY COYSTY CASE YESTERDAY' MORNING. City Attorney Kern Shown No Deposition to Pash the City Railway Appeal—Court News. + Argument was heard by the Supreme Court yesterday In the case of the State ex rel. Joseph R. Harrison against Benjamin P. Menaugh, appealed from the Whitley Circuit Court. The paint involved Ls whether or not the Legislature had the right to postpone an election. The Legislature, in 1897, enacted a law postponing the election of township assessors and trustees until 1900, thereby extending the term of the present incumbents about fifteen months. The law has been attacked by the Democratic state committee. On the trial of the case, contrary to the expectations of the committee, a Democratic judge upheld the law. The case was one brought to mandate the county officers to hold an election in the fall at the time of the general election for township trustees and assessors. The writ was not issued. Until the case is decided nominations will not be made for township assessors and trustees. Thomas Marshall, of Columbia City, Ind., argued against the validity of the law. Charles M. McCabe, of Covington, appeared in support of the law. Enoch Hogate, of Danville, was also* present in the interest of the law, but as the court confined the argument to one hour for each side, Mr. Hogate did not speak. Many attorneys were interested spectators. In objection to the iaw it was contended that it was unconstitutional in that its effect was to make the term of the incumbent assessors and trustees six years, while the Constitution says that no office shall be for more than four years. In rebuttal to this theory it was contended that the law of 1897 did not undertake to say that the incumbents should continue in office. It simply postpones the election. The incumbents continue in office, under the constitutional provision that all officers elected shall serve “until their successors are elected and qualified.” It was admitted that if the law had undertaken to say that “the present incumbents shall serve until after the election provided for in this act,” then it would have lengthened the term, but as it undertook to do nothing of the sort, leaving the operation of the Constitution to accomplish that purpose, the law is valid. “The sole question,” said Mr. Hogate to a reporter, "is whether the Legislature had the power to postpone an eleetion. If it had that power the court will hardly go into an examination of what results would follow the exercising of the power. In the medical case decided yesterday the court intimated there might be some doubt as to the wisdom of the law, but, having held that the legislature had a right to pass it, the court did not undertake to follow the law to its results.” The question is one of considerable interest to politicians. In other States the courts have held similar laws to be valid. If the law is upheld there will be no election this fall of township assessors and trustees and the men in office wili have their terms extended several months, so they are much interested. Attorneys from various parts of the State were interested spectators at the hearing yesterday. One suggested that the court might not pass upon the case on the ground that it. was not in court properly, as the suit undertakes to mandate officers to do something many months hence which no one can now say that they will not do. That question was ignored by both sides and it is not thought that the court will take cognizance of it of its own motion. The court advanced the case and requested to hear argument, although neither side cared to be heard orally. For this reason it is believed that the court will hand down an opinion before the summer adjournment.

TO THE GRAND JURY. The Pnlr of Avid-Throwing Women Hound Over in Police Court. Mrs. Lulu Kline and Mfs. Maud Goodin, the women charged with throwing vitriol in the face of Dr. Aimee Haskinson, were given preliminary examination in Police Court yesterday and held for grand jury action. Mrs. Kline waived examination and served as a witness against Mrs. Goodin. When she took the stand the court informed her that, under the law, she would not be compelled to testify; but she declared that she wanted to do so. She told the story practically as she told it to the Journal at the time of her arrest. She told how Mrs. Goodin had promised her a life of ease to throw the acid, how she had at first refused, and had been led to believe that Miss Haskinson had alienated the affections of Mrs. Goodin’s husband, and how she had finally consented, under the conviction that she would be doing a righteous act. She said that Mrs. Strause, the daughter of Mrs. Goodtji, had also encouraged her to do the deed. ’ She testified that she had purchased the acid, and that while she was deliberating whether to throw it or not, Mrs. Goodin gave her medicine for a sore throat, which she believes now contained a drug to hold her under Mrs. Goodin’s influence. Anew feature of the story was brought out in Mrs. Kline’s testimony. She said that Mrs. Goodin once formed a plan to murder Miss Haskinson outright. A room was rented near the doctor’s office, and Mrs. Goodin and the witness were to occupy it on the night of May 15. They were then to summon Dr. Haskinson on a pretext that someone was ill, and were to murder her. The examination lasted until 3 o'clock, and both women were held to the grand jury. A GRANDDAUGHTER SUES. Claim* a Share of Her Ancestor’s Property. Now Held by Others. A suit to contest the will of the late William S. Waite was filed yesterday by Harriet A. Westfall, a grandchild of the deceased, whose father died before the will was made. In the suit the defendants named are all the sons and daughters, with their partners in wedlock, together with Charles Negigy, who was named as executor of the will. The plaintiff alleges that the deceased was of unsound mind and was the subject of undue influence on the part of the defendants- The real property involved is 240 acres of farm land in this county, designated as three farms with all improvements. The personal property is not named as to amount except that it specifies that a considerable amount of money is invested in notes. The only bequest to the plaintiff was the order to the executor to cancel several notes held by the deceased against her father. A Boy’s Damage Sait. The attorneys for the Indiana Car and Foundry Company yesterday filed a demurrer to the allegations of the attorneys for Joseph McGinty, the fifteen-year-old boy, who some time ago, while at work }n the company’s factory, had his hand badly crushed in the gearing of a bolt cutter. The damages asked are $2,500, on the ground that the boy was hurt while executing an order from the foreman. The story of the plaintiff is that the counter shaft above his head worked loose continually, and he was ordered to take a twine and tie it fast. In order to do this it was necessary to pass around behind the machine, where there was very little room, and in doing so his hand was caught in the gears of the machine and so badly crushed that the amputation of three fingers was necessary. The defense demurs on the ground that the boy was of the age of discretion, and should have known that the task was a dangerous one, and should have refused to do it. A 95.000 Judgment Upheld. A judgment of $5,000 recovered by Aurelia Creggor against the C., H. & I. Railroad on account of the death of her husband, obtained in the Marion Circuit Court, was affirmed by the Supreme Court yesterday. A motion to advance the appeal from the judgment refusing to allow the Bank of Commerce corporation to change its name was refused by the Supreme Court. NVlMhnrd’n Final Report. The final report of Albert W. Wishard, trustee of the defunct South Side Building and Loan Association, was filed in court last evening. In it the trustee states that all the real e-state and personal property of the association has been reduced to cash, and all accounts have been paid, leaving a balance to be divided among the stockholders.

At the time of his last report there were $1,332.61 as a balance on hand. This has since been increased to $2,287.02. In the receipts of the year there appears as assets the item of $314.41. designated as the aggregate of several claims tiled by A. O. Despo, the former treasurer, but which were not paid by the trustee for various reasons. The total disbursement in winding up the concern since the last report was $1,892.20. leaving quite a respectable residue to be divided between the stockholders. Still Kern Due* Nothing. Nothing has been done by the city attorney to have the appeal of the City Railway Company from the decision favorable to the city rendered in Hamilton county disposed of at this term of the Supreme Court. Every day that the court can hear argument the rest of the term is taken up. It begins to look as though the case would go over until fall. When the appeal was taken and the transcript filed the city attorney declared that he would take steps to have it advanced. The Citizens' Street-railroad Company has not perfected its appeal. Ask.* to Be Subrogated. The Mutual Building and Loan Association filed suit yesterday against the heirs of George Flowers for SSOO. secured by mortgage on a lot in Hubbard’s Hill Place addition, which has since been sold for taxes. The plaintiff asks that the defendant be debarred from all equity in the property ar.d that the association be allowed to redeem it by virtue of its right as holder of the mortgage. Rather Expensive Pontage. Henrietta Reitz, of Michigan City, was yesterday fined SSO and costs by Judge Baker, of the Federal Court, for sending an obscene letter through the mail. The letter was written in German and was addressed to Ludwig Dreger, Dayton, Mich. THE COURT RECORD. Supreme Court. 18173. C., H. & I. Railway Company vs. Cregor. Marion C. C. Affirmed. Monks. J. —l. Where a complaint consists of several paragraphs, two of which are sufficient to withstand a demurrer, and to which the facts found in the special verdict are applicable and within the issues joined on such paragraphs, the overruling a demurrer to the remaining paragraphs is harmless if error at all. 2. When the giving of certain instructions is assigned as a single error, all the instructions must be incorrect to avail as a cause for anew trial. 3. Jurors are not authorized to consider any evidence except such as given at the trial, but they have the right to test its truth and weight by their general knowledge derived from experience and observation in their relations with others. 4. In a suit brought by the administratrix of an estate for damages caused by the act of the defendant in causing her deceased husband’s death, such administratrix is competent to testify concerning matters which occurred prior to her husband’s death when her testimony is in favor of the estate. 5. Overruling or sustaining motions for a judgment on a special verdict is not a cause for anew trial; the correctness of the ruling on such motions can only be presented by assigning such ruling as error in this court. 18249. Newton vs. Roper. Starke C. C. Affirmed. Hackney, J.—Where real estate was sold by the auditor for taxes pursuant to Sections 247, 248 and 249 of the tax law of 1872, when the lands had been offered upon due notice at public sale, but remained unsold, they became forfeited to the State and could be sold at private sale without notice, and such sale without, notice was not taking property without due process of law. 18445. Leach vs. Adams. Morgan C. C. Certiorari granted. 18581. Allen vs. Studebaker Company. Grant C. C. Petition to substitute parties granted. Appellate Court. 2511. Cooper vs. Hocking Valley Bank. Hendricks C. C. Affirmed. Henley, C. J.'— 1. A bona fide purchaser for value of negotiable papers is within the protection of the law merchant, although the Interest on the note purchased was duo and unpaid at the time of purchase. 2. Testimony is properly excluded when it is not relevant to any of the issues rendered in cause wherein it y is offered. 3. A letter of one of several makers of a promissory note to the purchaser thereof before the purchase is competent evidence as showing an admission of the debt. 4. It is proper to refuse instructions when the court has instructed the jury in the same line. 2497. Voris vs. Star City Association. Parke C. C. Affirmed. Wiley, J.—l. A verbal guaranty of the payment of township warrants is binding upon the guarantor when made for his benefit; it is an original promise and not within the statute of frauds. 2. Where a person con* tracts with a corporation and receives a benefit therefrom by the contract being fully performed he cannot be heard to say that the contract was ultra vires on the part of the corporation. 3. One who deals with a corporation is presumed to know the powers and limitations of its authority and is estopped to plead Its want of authority. 3. In construing a special verdict so as to apply the law to the facts found, the court should look to the entire verdict, and not to isolated or detached parts of it. 4. Where fraud is an issuable fact, it is the duty of the Jury to find fraud as an ultimate fact, and not the badges of fraud. Saprrior Coart. Room 3—Vinson Carter, Judge. Henry T.
