Men an1 Women In the Melee Fred Sletsheifter Injured. A free-for-all fight attended the first day's ownership of the Star saloon at 134 West Market street by Earl Thomas, who purchased the business yesterday from Fred Metzheizer. The fight occurred In the wlnerooms upstairs. Metzheizer, Jack Cullen, the prize fighter, Charles E Ilaynes and Jack Cutworth, commonly known as Cuddy, and several vromen, frequenters of the wlneroom, were engaged In the fight. The story of the fight as told by one who took occasion ta get Into a place of safetywas that Metzheizer entered the room where the other men and the women were drinking and had been for some time. A few uncomplimentary remarks were passed between Metzheizer and Cutworth, after which the former owner of the saloon walked over and slapped Cutworth. Then the others took up the fight, which was fast and furious while it lasted, and resulted in numerous personal injuries, Metzhelzer's being the worst. His nose was broken and his face cut up badly. Ilaynes received several cuts and bruises about the head and face. The police were advised and Cullen. Cutworth and Hnynes were arrested and charged with assault and battery. Three women found in the place at the time the police went through were sent to headquarters. Two of the women were colored. The names of the women engaged In thp tight were not learned. Another incident of the opening was the passing of two old Madison & Indianapolis Railway J5 scrip certificates, paste! together, at the bar for a $5 bill. This was accomplished, it was claimed, by John Itrannan. of S23 Massachusetts avenue, for whom the police are looking. Death of Thomas Harnett.

Chapman, assistant treasurer, said he had no money now on deposit for the payment of the bills. The executive committte is awaiting the return of members to the city before calling a meeting.

LEGAL RESIDENCE RULE

A DECISION RT JUDGE CARTER Til AT 3IAY HAVE REARING. A Declaration to Become a Citizen of Another City Not SnfUcIent Other Conrt Ceaea. Judge Carter, of the Superior Court, yesterday rendered a decision that may have considerable bearing upon the question of legal residence In the coming election, although It relates only to the particular case he heard. Gustav A. Vv'urgler, a plumber of this city, brought suit against Robert L. King, with whom he asserts he entered Into a partnership to engage in the plumbing business In Alexandria, for $3,000 damages for the alleged failure to share the profits of a contract for building a sewer In that city and to enjoin the Council and officials of Alexandria from paying King until the matter is ajudlcated in the courts. Vv'urgler represented that King came to him and asked him to enter the partnership, as he desired an experienced plumber to assist him. He complied, and says they did business as a firm exce.pt In the contract for building the sewer, when, he asserts, King secured the contract under his own name, completely ignoring the rlaintiff, and refused to divide the profits. The hearing yesterday was on a plea of abatement entered by the defendants, holding that the court was out of its jurisdiction in trying the case, as King is a resident of Alexandria, and that suit should have been brought in Madison county. The evidence and argument ws on this point alone, as it had to be decided before the case could proceed. King claimed that it was his Intention to move to Alexandria and he tried to rent a house but failed, although he has been there ten months. His attorneys also showed that his name had been entered upon the poll books at Alexandria, a;d King declared it was his Intention to go there to vote. The attorneys for Vv'urgler had Mrs. King testify, and she said she had given her husband's name to the poll taker in- this city, as she supposed he would vote here. King stated that he had rented his house In this city, but Mrs. King testified to the contrary. The plaintiff alleges King declared his intention to become a resident of Alexandria so that he would get a license. In deciding Judge Carter held that as King had hi3 family here and he had not carried out his intention to move to Alexandria further than a declaration to become a citizen of that place, so far as his case was concerned he was legally a resident of this city and the court had jurisdiction. To what extent the decision will be taken up by politicians cannot be ascertained until election day. . Two Divorce Complaints. James Marsey j-esterday brought suit against his wife, Dollle Marsey, for divorce. He says they were married July 27, 18SC, . the license being Issued in the name of "Massey" instead of Marsey through an error, and that they lived together till OcL 6. 1S)9. lie avers that he is a Jeweler by trade and carried on a business at their residence. He asserts that his wife circulated false reports about him that broke up his business. Adam Cron, suing his wife, Caroline Cron, for divorce, alleges that she threatened to kill his children by a former wife, and once struck his fourteen-year-old child over the head with a skillet. He says they were once divorced and remarried. A Verdict for $1,100.. The Jury in the case of Mary A. Walton against the street-car company yesterday returned a verdict of $1.100 damages for the plaintiff. She asked for $15,000. . She was injured by being jerked from the car by a rope. This is the case in which the conductor dramatically told the court how he warned the woman before the accident, in which he stretched his arms outward and said: "Ueware, woman, beware of the rope." Rond Will Re Dalit. Yesterday the jury hearing the petition of farmers of Wayne township to open a road just west of the city returned a verdict that the road was of public utility and no damage would result if it were opened. The case has been on trial before Judge Allen all week. "Want Rooks Produced. Prosecutor Pugh yesterday filed a motion in the Circuit Court in his suit to break up the Indianapolis Live Stock Exchange to require the officers of the exchange to produce their books to-morrow In the trial for Investigation. ANNUAL FALL EXHIBIT. Marlon County Agricultural arid Horticultural Society. The Marlon County Agricultural and Horticultural Society held its annual fall exhibit in Room 12 of the Statehouse yesterday afternoon. W. B. Flick, president of the society, and Mrs. Naomi Hendricks, secretary, expressed themselves as delighted with the excellence of the display of fruits, vegetables, cereals and flowers especially considering that the exhibition came so soon after State fair and carvinal weeks. A great deal of interest In manifested In the work of this 'society and the discussions of practical topics at yesterday's meeting were Interesting. A literary programme was arranged, but those who were to participate failed to attend. Enjoyable music was furnished by Miss Lola Hoover, who is a very clever piano player. The display of fine vegetables, cereal3 and fruits made by J. J. Mlllhous attracted a great deal of attention, and Mr. Millhous carried off first premium on excellence of general display and also secured several first premiums on Individual articles. He displayed some radishes, gc-urds, squashes, watermelons and ears of corn that were good to cee. Mr. Mlllhous gave the greater portion of his exhibits to the Door of Hope last night. Mrs. W. B. Flick was awarded first prize for the handsomest round bouquet of flowers, and also for the most attractive flat bouquet. Other prize-winners were W. B. Flick, H. J. Hale. A. J. Appel, of Oaklandon, and Mrs. Henry Cress, of Irvington. HIGGINS IN TIGHT HOLE. D. 31. Parry Confirms Story of Attempt at Bribery. The more the talk about Councilman Higgins the more it appears that the councilman has tried to use his official position for his financial benefit. D. M. Parry, who returned from New York yesterday, says Higgins called on him twice and wanted money for his assistance in putting through the switch permit. Higgins Intimated that two other councilmen also approached Parry, but Mr. Parry denies this. He says he was visited by Councilman Evans, but It was upon another matter entirely, and with that exception no other councilmen caihd upon him. It is practically established that Higgins has promised gamblers protection for a percentage of the profits. Joseph Schaf, president of the Home Brewing Company, says Higgins tried to get money from him for his vtte on the brewery ordinance. There Is a general demand that Higgins be ousted from the Council. Kappa Alpha Theta. The Kappa Alpha Theta Club observed president's day yesterday afternoon with a Theta luncheon at the home of Mrs. A. I. Lockridge.

Yesterday Judge Carter inaugurated a new rule in his court. Hereafter, a record of the divorces granted will not be made out for publication. The purpose is not to hinder the news gathers, Judge Carter says, as they have access to the records, but the unnecessary publicity given this class of litigation he deems detrimental to the welfare of the public. Each Saturday, which is divorce day In the county courts, from ten to twenty-five divorces are granted. Judge Carter thinks the sight of such .a long list each week Is misleading, and that people are apt to believe that the securing of a divorce is an easy matter In the courts. On this account, the Judge says he believes many women and men having little family troubles immediately rush to the divorce court under the presumption that so many have procured the apparent relief of a dissolution of matrimonial bonds, that it Is best for them to do likewise. When there is really a "story" in a divorce suit. Judge Carter says he is willing for it to be given out. There is such a deluge of divorce suits that Judge Carter says he is disgusted and will use all the means within his power to stop- it. Most of the cases go by default, and the defense not being represented, the Judge has to cross question the plaintiff and the plaintiff's witnesses to ascertain for himself whether there is Just cause for a divorce. There is a statute providing that the county prosecutor shall defend all defaulted divorce cases but no provision is made for his compensation other than Judgment against either cf the parties: In nine cases out of ten these Judgments amount to nothing, the Judge says, as there is usually no property to secure the claim. "This question, I think, "said the Judge, "should be considered by the committee on reform laws in the next Legislature, and a law enacted providing pay for the prosecutor in defending divorce suits. There should be somebody to represent the defense and investigate the real conditions that bring family troubles Into court. Sometimes I am in doubt when granting a divorce on default, but the witnesses give their testimony and a decision must be made on the evidence. I question and cross-question them, they answer in favor of the plaintiff, and there you are. "As the law now is, the prosecutor cannot defend the caies , because he would have to depend upon the judgment for his services. To take care of all the divorce suits In the courts of this county. It would be necessary for the prosecutor to hire two or three deputies, and he cannot do this out of the compensation of his office and what could be collected on judgments in the cases." THREE POISON CASES. Dispensary Physicians Kept Busy Attending: to Despondent-. City Dispensary physicians had three calls last night for attendance upon poison cases. The first was at 550 Virginia avenue. Edward Bird, forty-eight years of age, who lives with his family at that number and is employed as traveling salesman by S. Castro, the commission merchant, took twenty grains of morphine and at a late hour this morning was yet in a critical condition. Members of his family claimed not to know the cause of his taking so much morphine. He had, they said, frequently used the drug in small quantities for neuralgia. He came home yesterday and after sitting about the house a short time went across the street and got the morphine. Their first knowledge of it was when he became seriously ill. The second call came from a saloon at 944 South Meridian street. A woman with too much liquor became hysterical and told those about the place she had taken poison. The third call was from 725 South Capitol avenue, a place to which the Dispensary doctors have been called three times during the last two months. They were unable to attend to the case and other physicians were secured. Harry Jarrel, with an abundance of liquor abroad, went home and told the folks he had taken poison. As he had several times taken morphine and as his actions were rather strange, his statement was believed and the doctors were summoned. They said he was suffering from too much liquor; that he might have taken a little morphine but not enough to affect him. TEI-CITY CHAMPIONSHIP. Louisville Players Defeat Indianapolis at Country Club. The final series of match play for the tri-clty championship between Indianapolis, Cincinnati and Louisville rolfers was played at the Country Club yesterday afternoon between Indianapolis and Louisville, the latter winning, 4 up.

Cummlng Smith established a new record for eighteen holes at the Country Club yesterday, making it In eightynine strokes, the last nine holes in fortyone strokes. George II. ICeteham in Tswh. George II. Ketcham, president of the Valentine circuit of theaters and owner of the celebrated racing stallion Cresceus. spent a few hours in the city last evening. Mr. Ketcham was on his way to Toledo from Terre Haute. At the iatter place he was attending the record meet last week. Cresceus was shipped to Toledo yesterday afternoon. Mr. Ketcham declared last night that the animal has been on the track for the last time. , Arrest of Two Men. Ed McGee, a known thief, and Ernest Roberts, of South Delaware street, who was with McGee, were arrested yesterday by Detectives Dugan and Wallace. Roberts was charged ' with earning concealed weapons a loaded revolver being found in his pockets. McGee was charged with loitering. In his pockets was found a portion of a newspaper containing the portraits of ail the detective force.

gaged In making visits to the new portions of the Indiana oil territory for the purpose of gathering data for his report.

MAN SERIOUSLY INJURED IT, RESULTED FROM. .RECKLESS DRIVING OF A MAIL WAGON. James T. Pnrlcer Run Over by the Heavily-Loaded Wagon Takcn Home in Ambulance. The recklessness and Indifference of the drivers of the United States mall wagons to the safety of citizens, which has long been a matter of much comment, resulted last evening In serious Injury to James T. Parker, engineer at the Cabinet Makers Union plant. Parker and a friend were crossing Meridian street near the Circle. They had nearly crossed the street when Parker was knocked down by the horse driven-by Arthur Campbell. The horse. In a seemingly miraculous manner, stepped over his body, but the wheels of the wagon, which contained, according to the statements of the postofflce clerks, nearly three-quarters of a ton of mall, passed over his body, injuring his back. Parker's friend also narrowly escaped being knocked down. "Parker was picked up and helped to a seat on the curb, and after the arrival of the ambulance taken to his home at 533 Bates street The wagon which ran over Parker was en route to the Union Station, and the horse was trotting at a rapid gait. At the same time another wagon going to the postoffice passed. Campbell and the driver of tho other mall wagon exchanged greetings in loud voices and flourished their whips at each other, paying no attention whatever to their business of driving. Campbell, after running his wagon over Parker, stopped only about ten seconds, and then, without getting off .to see what injury had been Inflicted, whipped up his horse and drove to tho Union Station. Campbell is employed by Nageleisen Bros., the livery men at 222 East Wabash street, who have the contract for transporting the mails between the Union Station and the postoffice. Night Superintendent Buchanan said the' contractor was responsible for such accidents, there being no license for fast or reckless driving, even on government business. The regulations as to delaying malls In transmlslson do not apply in such cases. It was also said Campbell was undoubtedly driving faster than necessary, having been allowed more than the usual time to reach the train with the mall. CITY NEWS NOTES. Mr. and Mrs. J. A.
