' American Express Company nevlevred hy Tax Board, Too.

The State Board of Tax Commissioners' yesterday heard the famous "Doc" Norton on behalf of the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad Company, lie said the company hasr been reorganized since It last appeared and the gross earnings for 1S3D were less than for 1S03. He further said the Tax Board has placed the expenses it 70 per cent., when In reality they should be placed at 80 per cent, lie said the tu?inesj of the company Is chiefly through-freight business, in which there Is much competition because of water rates. The road has paid over $300,000 for terminal facilities In Chicago. He said that twelve roads In the State are assessed above the assessment of the Baltimore & Ohio, and each one of the twelve has a surplus. Six roads which have surpluses are assessed below the Baltimore & Ohio, which has always had a deficit. L. D. Fargo, of Chicago, appeared for the American Express Company to answer inquiries relating to the increase in mileage from 34.0W miles to lw.0uo miles in one year. But little satisfaction was derived from the questioning. The Chicago & Erie was represented by W. A. Johnson, attorney for the road, who said the assessment has been placed too hlxh according to the net earnings of the company, lie said the road has practically no local business and has alwavs carried a deficit. the total deficit from liM to 1S3S being $3,.302.31. The Vandalia was represented bv John O. Williams. He eaid he made what he thought was an eloquent plea two years ago, but the board added 2.X to each mile, and he was afraid to say more this year. S. P. Sheerln said the New Telephone Company, of this city, had failed to report to the board because It was not In operation. THE WAVERLEY LINE. Surveyors Beach Ttala City Dam to Be Constructed. The corps of surveyors engaged In working out the line of the Indianapolis, Martinsville & Southern Electric Railroad arrived in the city yesterday. The purveyors started from Martinsville ten days ag. The construction of the road will begin Sept. 1. The power house will be located at Waverley, and the road will be known as the "Waverley line." A dam Is to be constructed across White river at Waverley, and a lake three miles long will thus be formed. The water will be used a. power to generate electricity. Right of way on the streets of Mart.nsvllle has been secured, and that city v.Ul be the temporary southern terminal of the road. A hydraulic engineer from Dayton will arrive next week to superintend the construction of the power machinery at Waverley, The line will run throush a stretch of country twenty miles wide between the I. & V. and the J.. M. & I. railroads. Besides passengers, the trains will carry llsjnt freight. A great deal of garden stuff i brought into the city by way of the Bluff road, and the country around Waverley is richly productive of wheat, and tha oftlclal of the company expect considerable patron age for their line irora these sources alone They Flatted on Hack Creek.

MINE CLOSED EARLIER

CLASH WITH STRIKERS AVOIDED AT EVAXSVILLE YESTERDAY. Report Hint Militia Officers Have Been Notified to Hold Themselves In rteadlncaa. A special dispatch from Evansvllle last night said that the strike situation was in good shape in the evening. The entire police force and a large number of deputy sheriffs were on duty throughout the day and all nonunion miners were got cut of the mine early In the afternoon. While they were going out no strikers or sympathizers appeared. Thero was no fear last night of an armed clash. The dispatch stated that it was reported on good authority that troops have been ordered to hold themselves in readiness to proceed to Evansville and this had had a salutary effect on the strikers. It was further rumored that telegrams had been received from the officers of the mine workers, summoning National Committeeman Dllcher for a conference. Protests hsve been sent out by Evansvllle people to the cfilclala of the organization and others against the course adopted by Dllcher, and It Is believed in Evansvllle that the control of the situation will be placed in other hands. An Associated Press dispatch from Evansvllle last night says: "Sheriff Kopke told Governor Mount by telephone to-day the situation was serious enough to warrant him giving the Governor notice that troops might be needed at any moment. Tae Governor announced his willingness to respond promptly. Much excitement was occasioned this afternoon by many miners appearing in the park. A number were armed but there was no trouble. About fifty deputy sheriffs were sworn in to-day by Snerlrt Kopke and the entire police force was on duty, but their services were not needed. THE GOVERSOIl ANXIOUS. Telephones Evansvllle Xew AntlLynchlnff Law Applies. Governor Mount was yesterday in communication with the Evansvllle authorities regarding the strike situation, but declined to discuss It or give out anything for publication. The situation there is closely watched by the State authorities and much apprehension is felt. During the morning President John Mitchell, of the United Mine Workers, was in consultation with the Governor, but nothing would be given out for publication regarding it. No word has been received from Fred Dllcher. national committeeman of the United Mine Workers, who is managing the strike at Evansvllle, regarding his intention to demand of the Governor that nonunion men be disarmed. It was stated In yesterday's papers that Dllcher had announced that he would come to this city for that purpose, but Governor Mount has heard nothing from him. The right of the Governor to disarm men Is a new function and one which has not been exercised. The question has been submitted to the attorney general for an opinion. One of the State officials on yesterday called attention to the fact that the drastic anti-lynch law passed by the last General Assembly Is applicable aso to other phases of mob violence. The first section of the law in question reads as follows: "That any collection of Individuals assembled for any unlawful purpose, Intending to injure any person by violence and without authority of law, shall, for the purpose of this act, be regarded as a mob ' and any act of violence exercises by such mob upon the body of any person shall constitute the crime of lynching.' When such act or acts of violence result in death, any person who actively particpates in, or actively aids or abets such lynching, upon conviction thereof, shall sufter death or be Imprisoned in the State prison during life. In the discretion of the Jury, and any person who, being a member of such mob and present at any such lynching, shall not actively participate in such lynching, shall be guilty of abetting such lynching, and, upon conviction thereof, shall be imprisoned in the State's prison not less than two nor more than twenty-one years." It will be seen from the foregoing quotation that persons who are assembled with a mob when a murder is committed, even if they do not directly participate in the kill ing, are held to be particeps crimlnls. The law also provides, as another precautionary measure against the evils or nonprosecutlon on the part of local officials, that the attorney general Is empowered to begin proceed ings, m the name or the state, Dy indict ment or Information. LITTLE CHINESE GIRLS. Senntor JJevcrldffe Tells si Young Indianapolis Miss of Them. Jeanette, the five-year-old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Dawson M. Harvey, has re ceived a letter from her admiring friend, Senator Albert J. Beverldge. The letter Is dated "On board the Chang King, Yellow aea, June 13," and is as follows: T am sailing on the Yellow sea. between Japan and China, clear on the other side of the world. Your mamma and papa win show it to you on the globe. I am on my way to Peking, the capital of China. It is one or the largest cities in the world, and, perhaps, the dirtiest. I have been in Can ton, too, at the other side or China, wnere twice or three times as many people live In boats ast live in all Indianapolis. These people live, cook, eat, sleep and work in their boats. Their boats are their houses, and horses, too. "I don't like China as much as I like other lands, for one reason they don't take good care of their little glria. The other day I went Into a country Chinese village, a long way from the city. There were plenty of little boys that ran to meet me. but no little girls. A great man in China, the judge of a big court, like your papa was. said to me. in his courtroom the other day. that he had lour children, all girls, and that he was sorry, because they did not count for anything. So. you see how lucky you are in being a sweet little American girl and in having a loving papa, who is proud of you Instead of being ashamed of you." NEW CHURCH BUILDINGS. Ground at Sixteenth and Meridian Offered for One of Them. Since the. government has decided on taking the University-square site for the new pcstofflce building the congregations of the First Presbyterian Church and Plymouth Church are wondering where they will rebuild. The Catterson property, at the northwest corner of Meridian and Sixteenth streets, has been offered to the First Presbyterian Church, it is said, and members of the congregation are disposed to look on the proposition favorably, realizing that the lot would make a very pretty building spot. There is some sentiment in the church that the new edifice should not be located farther south than Tenth or Eleventh street, and some are in favor of going even farther north than Sixteenth street. Members if Plvv.cutti Church feel that should that congregation decide to continue as an institutional church, the new building ought to be located a- nearly in the central part of the city as possible. Robert M. Leek's Mental Condition. Robert M. Leek, a grocery clerk, living at ISO! North Capitol avenue, went to the police station last night and told a story which resulted In his being detained as an Insane person. He said he had been arretted by the police for stealing a bicycle, but. as they did not wish to put him into the patrol wagon at the place of arrest, they told him to move on to the next correr. He did. and In that manner the trip toward the police station was continued until he got within a square of it. and he then conclude! he would not wait for th officers. Soon after he was locked up hl3 father came to the station and secured his release upon the condition that proper care would be taken of him. He said a watch had been kert on the young man before, but he had eluded his guard. With 1,125 In Revenue Stamps. A deed of conveyance which contained $1,125 worth of revenue stamps was filed with the county recorder yesterday by Charles L. Henry. The deed conveys certain franchises, rights of way, grants, et?., to the Muncle, Anderson & Indianapolis

Street-railroad Company, of Muncle. The property described In the deed Is the franchise granted Mr. Henry by the Marion County Commissioners some time ago. and

tne private rights of way Mr. Henry secured with a view to constructing an electric line between Anderson and this city. The Muncle. Anderson & Indianapolis Street-railroad Company is the corporation recently formed to control the different electric lines in the gas belt. The deed filed by Mr. Henry says the transfer is made for '$l and other valuable consideration." FOR THE CITY CAMPAIGN. Chairman Logsilon Announces Ills EtrcutlTf Committee. Chairman Logsdon, of the Republican city committee, will probably open headquarters In the old City Dispensary building, on East Ohio street. If It Is found that the cost of putting the building in condition will not be too large, the city committee will lease it for the campaign. Chairman Logsdon sent out notices last night to precinct committeemen calling a meeting for next Tuesday night, for the purpofte of electing ward committeemen. He has announced the fol lowing executive committee: Harry S. New, A. A. Young. Fred J. Matson. Frederick A. Joss, William Essmann, Leopold Rothschild and L. Lynn Atkinson. THE BASEBALL DREAMS ST. LOUIS NOW LIGHTS THE PIPE AND TELLS THE STORY. An Association Next YcarWatkins Is to Manage the Cincinnati Team. An Associated Press dispatch was yester day sent out from St. Louis stating that the project to organize a baseball association to represent that city In the proposed American Association was perfected yesterday, and that the club, which is to be called tho St. Louis Browns, will be organized in time to take the field early next season. According to the story. Van der Ahe's old Sportsman's Park has already been secured and will be revamped and called Athletic Park, and the new "St. Louis Baseball As sociation" will receive the park lease free of all Incumbrances. The general major league situation, as described from St. Louis, is that in 1W0 there will be two big leagues, known as the National League and the American Associa tion respectively. The former will Include clubs in the following cities: Boston, Brooklyn, Philadelphia, Pittsburg, Chicago, Cincinnati, St. Louis and Louisville, while American Association clubs will be placed In New York, Philadelphia, Baltimore, Washington, Buffalo, Detroit, Chicago and St. Louis. John T. Brush, who, it Is said, has been in consultation with Hart and Roblson con cerning the formation of the proposed new league or leagues, left the city last night without expressing any opinion on the mat ter. It was rumored that he had gone to Chicago, but Manager Comlskey, of the St. Paul team, with whom Brush was In con sultation during the day, said that he had annonunced his intention of going to Cin cinnati. Manager Comlskey, who has been closeted with President Ban Johnson for the past two days, Joined his team here yes terday. He said that while he had heard much talk of the new league, none of it was of a character to lead to the belief that there was much behind it. On one point he was positive; that the Western League would be doing business with the same cities it now has, and any plan on the part of out siders to put clubs In Buffalo and Detroit would be resented by the Western League, which is a party to the National agreement by which Its territory Is guaranteed to it. Manager Comlskey also announced that he had closed a deal for the service of Catcher Harry Vaughn, whose ten days' notice of release from the Cincinnati team expires Saturday. SAVING TO BE DEPOSED. AVntkln. Will Succeed Him at Cincin nati Next Season. Before leaving the city last night John T. Brush confided to a friend that at the end of the present season a change of manage ment of the Cincinnati team will take place, and Ewlng, who now misguides the team. will be deposed In favor of the ex-Indian apolls manager, William H. Watklns, who has until recently been at the head of the Pittsburg team. Watklns has always had the confidence of Mr. Brufch since his good showing in this city, and he would long ago have been at the head of the Cincinnati team were It not for the one-tlrae popular ity of Buck Ewlng. It has been decided to allow Ewlng to finish out the f eason, it having been claimed by his friends that the re cent poor showing of the team Is due not so much to his lack of management as to luck and other circumstances, and It was thought best to allow him an opportunity to Dring the team out or the hole if possible. Moreover, it is understood that Watklns refuses to take charge of the Reds in their present demoralized condition, and that he will spend most of the season looking for new material ana arranging nis "system ior next season. Incorporations. The Clayton Mutual Telephone Company, of Putnam, Greene, Monroe and Browx: counties, was yesterday incorporated, with a capital stock of $10,000. The directors are J. O. Wlnsted, A. R. Marley, E. B. Owen, Henry Brown, R. S. Wooden, C. C. Walls, N. E. Hubbard, Marlon Sinclair and O. L. lirldees.

CAMPERS AND MISSIONS

SIMILAR TOPICS YESTERDAY AT BOTH ACTOX AND BETIIASY. The Mormon Situation Considered by tlic Methodists The Indebtedness of Betnnnr. Yesterday was woman's home missionary day at Acton Tark. The day was an unusu ally quiet one, the intense heat keeping the cottagers confined to their verandas. Late in the afternoon. Just before train time. however, a thundershower came up and the lncomin passeneers on the train from In dianapolis received a good drenching, as few of them had umbrellas. The morninc devotional exercises were conducted by Rev. J. W. Dashlell and at 10:30 Mrs. T. H. Holt, of Indianapolis, read a paper on "The Needs of Home Missionary Work in Utah." Mrs. Holt said. In view of the perils of Christian institutions from Mormonism and the need for woman's work to supplement the efforts of the general church, the loyal women of the Methodist Church Joined hands with the General Missionary Society In November, 18S0, toward the propagation of a pure gospel -among the degraded women of Utah. Only by the united efforts of the society was the expul sion of the Mormon seraglios and the redemption of women from the thralldom of polygamy possible, for the degradation of Mormonism falls more heavily upon woman than upon man. Often times, she said, wom en who have been inveigled Into the Mor monism of Utah, losing faith in their doctrines, drift into infidelity. Christian sci ence and theosophy; others who wish to re nounce Mormonism dare not do so unless they know of a haven of security against the persecution which is sure to follow such a step. One of the strong reasons, Mrs. Holt urged, why a missionary work should be pushed In Utah among the Mormons is the evident Influence of these people. They are an intelligent, industrious, educated peo ple and the dominant class In Utah. Mrs. Holt also reasoned why the Woman's Home Missionary Society should establish Chris tian schools and send out evangelistic workers as a strategic point to assail this citadel of sin. After Mrs. Holt's paper. Rev. Samuel Freuder. of Chicago, gave a talk on "The Hebrew of To-day." Mr. Freuder described first, the differences between the orthodox and reformed Jews. He said they differed In regard to dietary laws; the orthodox eat no meat, except it has been rrepared by a rabbi; while the reformed Jew eats any where without asking questions, borne or. the reformed Jews eat even ham; some. seem to be fond of It. There is a difference in regard to the observance of the Sabbath. The reformed Jews keep their stores open on Saturday, which is the Hebrew Sabbath, and the orthodox do not. Mr. Freuder also explained how he became a Christian. Having occupied a Jewish pulpit until about nine years ago. he said that careful study of the New Testament, along with his ac quaintance with Christian ministers, gradnaiiv onened the way for him to see in Jesus Christ the promised Messiah. Mr. Freuder savs there is a better feeiing now among the Jews towards Christ and Christianity than ever before in the history of the world. Among other mlngs he mentioned an utterance made by a prominent Jewish rabbi. In the pulpit of a Louisville church recently, who spoke of Jesus as tho lowly and holy rabbi of Nazareth. Mr. Freuder gave Illustrations of the ancient synagogue service and exhibited the phyi . - i rr rmontc mentioned in Matthew xxlll. 5. and chanted the twenty-third psaln In Hebrew, lie conciuueu whv christians should love the Jews: First, because the Jews are fel low-men and a ennsuan i man face the image of God; second, because nu.i.ti.n. invA tho. Ttihle. everything or which, with the exception of Luke was written througn me lnsiruiucmoiu God-insplred men, who were Jews, and, third, because Christians love Jesus Christ, who. when he chose to take upon himself a human form, took upon himself tho form of an Israelite. , In the afternoon religious exercises were k. m,. nine nnd Mrs. George W.

It was missionary day at Bethany Park yesterday, and not only were the needs of the home and foreign fields discussed, but also the needs of Bethany itself. W. D. Starr, of Noblesvllle, made an address in the morning that stirred up the camp. He began by declaring that the needs of Bethany were great, and must be relieved at once. Although the assembly was In sore financial straits, yet it was "rich in mem ories, traditions and history." The value of the park and Improvements he placed at $33,774, on which there is an Indebtedness of J0.000. This debt, he stated, must be raised at once. He submitted to the assem bled cottagers a set of resolutions which declared that Bethany Assembly shall live. that additional stock in sufficient quantity to carry tho enterprise along, shall be sold, that this stock shall either be sold by soli citors or shall be apportioned and subscribed by the Various churches and the five societies of the church, as the directors may decide: that subscriptions for stock shall be payable when $5,000 has been subscribed; that the subscription list be opened at once on the grounds, and finally that "all our ministerial brethren and sisters pledge their hearty sup Drt to these propositions." To these resolutions there was not a dissenting voice, and tho debate, which was participated in by a dozen or more, was characterized by earnestness and a determination to make a supreme effort to free the park from its cloud of debt. There was also something more substantial than argument. It was announced that A. M. Atkinson, of Wabash, had agreed to subscribe $500. Samuel Harris, of Franklin, subscribed $100; W. H. Everman, of Burlington, $100, and Mrs. S. A. R. Boor, of New Castle, $100. Other subscrip tions were also made, and many announced an intention to give as soon as the sub scription lists were opened. Besides making a determination to raise the debt, the meet ing also decided that the property or the assembly must be painted before next spring; that is, the park, as L L Carpenter said, must have a new dress. In the morning William F. Cowden spoKe on "Home Missions:" In the afternoon A. L. Orcutt made an address on "Indiana Mission Work," and at night J. L. Brandt gave a stereopticon lecture, entitled, "The Passion Play, or the Christ in Art." All three of the addresses were listened to by a wellfilled tabernacle, the attendance at tne park being very good. Mr. Cowden represents the American Christian Missionary Society, and is general superintendent of mission work in Washing ton, Idaho, Utah and Wyoming. He laid particular stress upon the thought that the evangelization of the world depends upon the evangelization of America. He said the Christian Church had grown in this country from Fix congregations In 1820, to over 1,000 in 1&9, with a membership of a million. The society he represents is now maintaining seventy-five home missionaries In the United States. The amount for home missions raised by the church last year was $40,000, while this year the amount is already in excess of $,ouo, and will probably exceed $100,OCO. A. L. Orcutt, of Indianapolis, who spoke on the Indiana mission field, is vice-president of the State Missionsry Society. He said he thought that all this missionary so cieties of the State should be united under one general board, with a superintendent at the head, and that each church should be pledged to give a definite amount for missions at a stated time.

Heel3 sank into the softened asphalt, and men wondered whether this was the fact or the heat and their close attention to business had not brought on paresis or some other as mysterious and horrible mental disease.
