Carroll, a discharged private of the One-hundred'-and-sLxtleth Indiana Volunteers, was found lying unconscious In a freight car at Granton. N. J., last Tuesday morning. He was In a most pitiful condition, with serious wounds on fcia face and neck, and so covered with dirt and coal dust that he was at first supposed to bo a negro tramp. Not until ho had been- taken to Bellevua Hospital in New York and washed by the male nurses at that institution was it discovered that the wounded man was white. Carroll was taken from the ferry to Bellevue by the Roosevelt Hospital ambulance and dumped at the doors without having had the slightest attention paid to his wounds, it is claimed. The New York papers say that the treatment of tho poor unfortunate by the Rcosevfclt ambulance corps was outrageous, and the aft air la causing much critleal comment. The, doctor at Bellevue found that CarToll'a skull vras fractured In two places and . that ha had almost bled to death from numerous cuts that looked like razor Flashes. When the man was able to speak he said that he had been set upon and beaten by a band of roughs, but was uaib'e to give an account of the trouble, beinsr too weak to talk for any length of time. The doctors say that he cannot recover. In one of the injured man's pockets was found a letter dated Matanias. Cuba, March T,, recommending: him for employment, and tend by Ueut.

Lonergan. who has a Jewelry tore at 477 Indiana avenue, objected to a levy being made upon his stock by John W. Newhouse. deputy constable, and because of the force of his objections is now in the county Jail charged with obstructing a legal process, the fine for which upon conviction Is net less than $100. Newhouse says he has for some time carried two executions against Lonergan, one fcr &4S and the ether for J1S.T5, but had not served the paper because of Ionergan's promises to pay. Not wishing tu accept promises longer, he went to Lonfrgan's place yesterday afternoon to make the levy. When the Jeweler learned the object of the visit ho became angry and. It ia claimed, attempted to throw Newhouse out of the place, thiring tha scramble both men were considerably brubed, a show case demolished and a window was broken. Lonergan was arrested and taken to Jail by the otllcer. In Justico Smock'a court, where the warrant was worn out, Lonergan attributed hU trouble to bad luck" cau?ed by the breaking of a looking glass several years ago. For JIavlnar a.

TRACED TO LONELY HUT

DtrrncrivKs investigate tidy case AT MILLERS VI LLC IMece of Ilia Coat and Bntton Found True In cr he Man's Movements. The detectives have been following up the mysterious case in which Oliver F. Eby, living at 1703 Lockwood street, claimed to have had his right hand shot off by robbers. To Detectives Dugan and Asch, who had been detailed to look Into the case, Eby told a story cf how a long man and a short man had stopped him on the highway a few miles from Millersville, and after shooting him took his gold watch and 40 In money. Contradictory 5tatements In the recital of the affair and the finding of two cartridges, one loaded and one empty, together with accident policies and numerous short-time accident tickets, which were found In his pockets, led to the belief that the story told was not exactly right. Further questioning convinced the detectives there was no truth in Eby's claims and the matter was dropped for the time. But a quiet Investigation was going on at Millersville. About two and a half miles northeast of the town Is a farm on which John Hunter lives. In a pasture Is a hill covered with trees, and at the top of the hill stands a dilapidated log hut. Monday evening Mr. Hunter found a heifer and calf that had been confined In the pasture running at large on the highway. He found that a gate which he had called up had been broken down and was leaning against the posts. Fresh tracks of a horse and buggy were found, and following these Hunter went up to the log hut. Here he found a horse had been tied to a tree about sixty feet distant from the house, and inside were found footprints and spots In the dirt and upon boards which lay on the ground. The spots looked as if they had been made by falling water, but In the dim light the farmer was unable to tell what they really were. That evening Dr. Bower and his son talked of the story which had been told to the doctor's son on the drive to Indianapolis. The doctor Is a member of an organization for the detection of horse thieves, aruTwas naturally Interested In the tale. They concluded the story was pure fiction. The following morning they heard of the story told by Hunter. The doctor and his son drove out to the hut and discovered that the spots on the boards wei made by blood. In tho center of the hut was a large pool, at the door was another, and at the place where the buggy stood was still another. Blood was found on the walls, and by similar spots on the ground they were led from the door of the cabin to the place where the buggy stood Going back to the cabin, a search was made for shot in the walls. None could be found. Believing that the visitor to the hut bad been and that he had shot his own hand off, they reasoned that he might have pointed the gun so as to allow tne charge of shot to go out the doorway. Search w as made outside for evidence of this, and about twenty feet away they found a piece of cloth, a gun wad and a. nnrlinn rt n hiHtnn 'Ph.,.. were pickexl up, and stakes driven to indicate vi4tca nwre ioucu. -men tne doctor ana his son returned home and waited, nothing being said of their Hscoveries. Tuesday Detectives Dugan and Asch drove to Millersville. There they found several Who had SPPn F!hv Mnnrlnv nftomAn trolng beyond the town they found others nuu iiu srcii a. man answering tne description given and in this way were led to the entrance to the pasture where stands th log hut. Dr. Bower and son accompanied them, but did not in any way intimate that they had looked Into the matter which the detectives were Investigating. Finally, after the officers arrived at the log house and were examining the blood spots the doctor told of what ho had found. After taking measurements of the footprints, the prints made by the horse's shoes and one of the boards on which the spots were found the party returned to Millersville. Here John Thayer volunteered the information that he had seen tho man who came Into the town with his hand shot, stop at Mrs. Kern's Krocerv about twn hnnm irnro. ira also saw him on his return. Thayer said we was ruwier curious ana when fcjy got close to the bumrv in which T,hv n-aa nonoticed the lap robe was soaked with blood uu mrvusn a email noie saw the injured member. Which he claim -araa Ma fir ac te covered with powder smoke. A boy, Edward Caldwell, also told the officers that he had seen x.ty iwice. The officers then returned to the city nnd going to the hospital got Eby's coat. The piece of cloth which had been found by Dr. Bower and turned over to the detectives exactly matched that of the coat. On the coat was a broken button. This was taken off and later found to exactly fit Into the piece found at the hut by the doctor. Eby's shoes were measured. The measurements were also found to correspond to those of the footprints at tha little house on the hill. Then th Hvprv tM trh.r. Eby had hired the horse, was via ted. The I ujc-cuurtriiienis maae ot tne norse ?v were the same as those taken at the hut. Although no notification of an accident has been made to the insurance companies by Eby and no claim presented under the policies held, Charles Pryce, representing the Standard, of Detroit and Claim Adjuster Van Werroor. of the United States Casualty Company, of New York, In which Eby secured a $5,000 policy about & week ago, made a little investigation on their own account, resulting practically the same as did that of Dr. Bower and son and Detectives Dugan and Asch. Young Bower took two photographs showing the log cabin and the place where the buggy stood and these are in the hands of the detectives. DINNER FOR ARCHBISHOP. Catholic Clenry Meet the Trelate from Australia, Archbishop Carr, of Melbourne, Australia, was last evening tendered a dinner by M. O'Connor at the Denlson, to which all of the clergy of the city were invited. The dinner was served In the large ordinary and the tables were lighted by lamps. An' orchestra was stationed at the entrance to the room and was screened from the banqueters by palm trees and ferns. The tables set were in two long rows, with the table of honor at tho head. In the center of this table of honor sat Father Chartrand, who acted as toastmaster. On his right was the Archbishop of Melbourne, M, O'Connor, Mgr. Bessonies, Theresa CConnor and Andrew O'Connor. On his left were Father O'Donaghue. Father Scheideler. William !. O'Connor. Mrs. Madden and Mr. Madden. The guests were Father Maher. Mr. and Mrs. G. Pfau, Father Gavisk, Father Loble. Mr. and Mrs. E. fcSiersdorfer, Father Ilaase, Mr. and Mrs. C O'Connor, Father Curran, Joseph O'Connor, Father Alerding, Mr. and Mrs. Korbly. Father Spellman, Mr. and Mrs. Gramling, Mr. and Mrs. M. Clune, Father McCabe, Mr. and Mrs. Carr, Father Dowd, Mr. and Mrs. James Broden, E. Goebel, Mrs. Goebel, B. O'Connor, Mr. and Mrs. R. R. Shiel, Father Lannert, Mr. and Mrs. M. J. Ready. Mrs. Steffer. Mr. StefTer. Mrs. M, M. O'Connor nnd Mr. M. M. O'Connor. After coffee was served Father Chartrand aroM and as toastmaster started the speech making. With a very witty beginning he called on Very Rev. Father O'Donaghue, who responded In a short speech In which he proved in a facetious way the superiority of the clergy of this diocese over those of the diocese of Melbourne. Others called on were Father SchHdeler, Father McCabe, Father Dowd, Father Alerding and Judge Korbly. Last of all Archbishop Carr was called on and responded as follows: "I scarcely know in what way or In what words I should acknowledge the compliments that have been paid to me to-night, not only in the eloquent address of Father Chartrand but also in the flowing hospitality of Mr. O'Connor, and the kindly courtesy of my fellow-guests, who have come here in such large numbers to do me honor. I believe that a few words, plain in form, but full of honest admiration and affection, will best wit the requirements of the occasion. And virst. I may mention that I am sprung fr )m a people and a nation proverbially generous at home, and easily and powerfully affected by the kindness and generosity of others. Inheriting such national characteristics, I could not help being deeply moved by all the kindness I have already received and all that is In store for me in connection with my vi?lt to Indianapolis. It brings back to my mind the days cf ray youth when I learned the t-ame lessons and played on the same green hillsides with our genlil host, Mr. O'Connor. 1 am delighted to find that he has secured for himself in the land cf his adoption not only abundant

wealth, but what Is higher and better than material wealth, the respect and esteem of hi. fellow-citlrens. "I have lately revisited that green isle and that home of my boyhood and the visit has renewed nnd revived my interest in her checkered history, in her ancient glories and her centuries of suffering and in the brightening prospects which give promise of a second spring and of a long-continud summer. In my travels I have occasionally heard Ireland referred to In terms of derision or of well-meaning pity. But it was so referred to by those who knew nothing of her past or of the causes of her present backward condition. It would startle them to hear that not for one or two. bat for several centuries, beginning with the sixth. Ireland stood fhst amongst the nations of Europe In the cultivation of those fine arts which are the surest test of civilization of a natior. The illuminated manuscripts of Ireland, the Cross of Cong, the Chalice of Ardagh and the Brooch of Tara will attest for all time the matchless skill of ancient Irish art. "It is from such a country I have come and I am Journeying to a country that is as young in history as Ireland is old in story, a country that has no monuments of the past, no ruined castles nor storied monasteries to tell of former triumphs or of defeats, but a country that Is rich In the promise of a history of progressive peace and prosperity. It is a country large in extent as your United States, and rich in the possession of every natural treasure which is synonymous with wealth; above, a bright and genial atmosphere, on the surface, vast plains of fruitful soil, and beneath the surface mines of gold and silver of inexhaustible richness. In my progress to such a country I am traveling through yours, which holds an intermediate position between the old and new. You are young in the years of your history, but already old In all that constitutes and elevates a nation. I candidly confess that in coming bere I expected to find, in the habits and peculiarities of the people, some of those defects that are deemed almost Inseparable from the buoyancy of national youth. But I find in private and social life a staid, warmhearted, refined, cultured people, whom to know Is to admire and to love. It has been my good fortune to see your great Republic in the most favorable circumstances, in the springtime of the year. In lovely weather, in company with a most genial companion and in the enjoyment of a hospitality from ecclesiastics and layman, as sumptuous as It is refined, and as generous as it is gracious and unostentatious. What wonder, then, that I should be grateful for all the favors I have received and that I should feel that I am laying up a store of material for pleasant memories which will last a3 long as life endures." MISS MARTIN'S SUCCESS.

Indianapolis AVomnn'a High Rank. In Scientific World. The San Francisco Chronicle of recent date has a large picture of Miss Lillle J. Martin, formerly of Indianapolis, but recently given an Important position In Leland Stanford, Jr., University. Miss Martin ten years ago was a teacher of chemistry In the Indianapolis High School and is well remembered here. The Chronicle says of her: "The recent eppointment of Miss Lillle J. Martin as assistant professor In the department of psychology at Leland Stanford Junior University is a signal distinction for a woman ard a fitting supplement to the honors she won in the laboratories of Europe. She seems to be destined to be the pioneer woman in the innermost circles of this new science. When she went to Europe more than four years ago no woman had ever been received in Frof. G. E. Muller's laboratory. It was not that this foremost of all the psychologists ot Europe has any prejudice in the matter of the sex of his students, but up to that time women had but browsed upon the outskirts of his department and he had not considered them, seriously. A few months after Miss Martin came he discovered her superior mental ability and her earnestness, and decided that at least one woman could do some work superior to anything that had been accomplished. At the end of four years the publishers In Germany had in press the result of the collaboration of Professor Muller and Miss Martin. The boo!:, which is in German, has Just reached this city, and to Miss Martin's astonishment and the delight of her friends he has placed her name first, an acknowledgment that ner contribution to tho volume was greater then his own. Translated the title is A Contribution to the Analysis of the Sensibility of Differences.' It ia not in any sense a text-book, but one for advanced pclentl?ts, and is considered the most valuable recent contribution to the literature of psychology. Miss Martin came to California in 1KS to take charge of the department of science In the Girls' High School In this city. Before she went to Europe she worked in the laboratories of Berkely.' THE ODD FELLOWS' BUILDING Trustees Authorized to Receive Propositions for It. The Grand Lodge of Odd Fellow? took no decided action yesterday in regard to a new building. The trustees were Instructed to receive offers for the purchase of the present property, and propositions for the sale of other property to the Grand Lodge. It is felt that the present property Is too valuable to be used as a site for a Grand Lodge hall, and the project to buy ground elsewhere In the central rart of the city and erect a three-story building Is favored. At tho meeting of the Grand Lode in the fall the trustees will report what propositions they have received. The election of officers will occur at the fall meeting. 'Under the laws of the order, M. H. Chappell, of Knightstown, the present deputy grand master, will become grand master, and Thomas R. Jessup, of Richmond, the present grand warden, will become deputy grand master.

Dunkirk; Edwin Farrer, Rushville; Alexander Johnson, Fort Wayne; E. E. Pryor. Martinsville; D. W. Krisher, North Manchester; R, E Stephens, Newport; E E. Hastings, Washington: G. P. Bornwasser, New Albany, and David Hilt. Lafayette. For the office of grand secretary, W. H. Leedy, who has held the office for many years, was again nominated. James A. Wildman was also . renominated for grand treasurer. O. N. Cranor was nominated for representative to the Sovereign Grand Lodge, J. F. Walllck was nominated for trustee. Fnneral Directors' Officers.

The legislative committee presented resolutions, which were adopted, to put on the railroads the responsibility of transferring bodies from train to train when they are shipped from one point to another. . Gossip of Newspaper Changes. Delavan Smith, one cf the proprietors of the Indianapolis News, Is said to be trying to make a deal by which he will become a heavy stockholder la the Cincinnati Commercial Tribune. Mr. Smith already owns some stock in the Commercial Tribune. In a conversation which Major Richards, of the News, had with Mr. Smith over the longdistance telephone, the latter told him he had attempted to buy a controlling Interest in the Tribune, hut he feared the deal wa.i off. Major Richards is of the opinion that Mr. Smith will be a bidder for the News when it is sold. Major Richards will also be one cf the bidders. The PoorliouNe Committee.

The leaders of the Prohibition party of Indiana discussed their work all day yesterday, and the addresses were along many lines. All the lines, however, led to the destruction of the "rum power." The editors of the party organs seemed to stand very high with the leaders of the party; they received enthusiastic applause when they spoke. All made ardent appeals to every one interested In the Prohibition party to spend as much time as posssible in soliciting subscriptions. The state organ, the Phalanx, is owned by William Clark, of this city, and his son, Edward Clark, is secretary of the state committee. The thirteen district evangelists are all eollcitors for subscriptions, but. It was said, they received no commissions. . Editor Clark said that the evangelists were doing so well that the circulation of the paper would be doubled within a jear. That was one of the magnificent features of tho new plan of campaign, he said. The paper Is not operated by the Prohibition organization, but is a private enterprise of William Clark's. L. M. Crist, of Thorntown, publisher of the Twentieth Century, and Editor De Voe, of the Richmond Enterprise, also spoke. An interested outsider asked one of the party leaders if the two- editors last mentioned also had the advantage of using the evangelists supported by the party as solicitors. He replied that he believed not, but he knew of no reason why the evangelists should not solicit subscriptions for the other papers as well as the Phalanx. The whole purpose was to spread Prohibition literature, he said. Editor De Voe said he could not see why Christians should read newspapers which published liquor license advertisements, lie was surprised that ministers of the gospel read the dally papers, becauso they published the Iniquitous advertisements. His paper, he said, ought to be the official organ of the Prohibitionists of the Sixth district, but Instead it went into seven Republican or Democratic families where it went into one Prohibition family. Last night the state central committee held a meeting at English's Hotel and formulated a plan of finance. Heretofore Prohibitionists enthusiastic enough to give away money have had their contributions spilt Into parts, one part going to the district organization, one part to the county organization and one part to the state organization. Under the new plan the funds will be kept separate, and the contributor may give his money to any one fund and have the satisfaction of knowing that It is all going into that particular fund. It is claimed that tho traveling evangelists, one for each congressional district, are on regular salaries, and that the financial condition of the party Is gratifying. Voters are being converted every day, the Prohibitionists say, and there is no telling what will happen some day; that is, of courses if the party's prosperity continues to increase as it is now and "harmony" suffers no such splitting process as It did in 12&6.

She was taken home for "orto more chance." The girl declined to say where she had been or what she had been doing. Enrrlneer Temple's Injuries.

George Ham, with Ills Leu "Wounded by a, Ball, Walked Home. George Ham, living at S19 East New York street, went to see a young woman living in the southern 'part of the city Wednesday evening. He had often been there before, and, returning late, was afraid of being assaulted. This time, to rrotect himself, he says, he borrowed a revolver from another young man living at tho same house. On his return Wednesday night about 12 o'clock he carried the pistol In the right front pocket of his trousers. While crossing Morris street the pistol was accidentally discharged while in his pocket, tho bullet lodging in the left leg a few inches above the knee. At first Ham did not think he was hurt, though he felt a sharp pain in the leg. Soon tne How of blood gave evidence of his Injury and he then became frightened. He continued walking until he reached home, where he called one of the men in the house. Dr. Morgan was summoned. Yesterday mornir.g the X-ray was used to locate the bullet, which the doctor was unable to find. It had lodged just back of the knee cap, and it was thought might affect the use of the limb. He was taken to the Deaconess Hospital and the piece of lead extracted. Ham said the weapon was discharged by stumbling over something in the street. HOUSE ALMOST SOLD OUT. Indianapolis People Don't "Walt Long to Buy Riley Tickets. . The sale of seats for James Wnitcomb Riley's reading, at English Opera House, next Tuesday night, will only have been excelled by the sales for the engagements of Richard Mansfield in "Cyrano de Bergerac" and Alice Nielsen In "The Fortune Teller." There was a long line of people waiting for the sale to open . yesterday morning, and by evening the treasurer of the theater said It was plain the house would be sold out. As It was, there were only two rows left on the lower floor and two rows left In the balcony last evening. It is probable that the gallery will be reserved. The prospect is that, with the crowd of improvident ones who have not reserved ftats. the theater will be packed to the doors. Mr. Riley will appear twice before Indianapolis audiences next week.
