A BOY IN CUSTODY. Chris Puckett Charged with Ttlfllnsr Mall Toach. Deputy United States Marshal Lon Boyd worked a clever ruse in order to make an arrest at Linton Friday night. Mr. Boyd was sent to that place with a warrant for a seventeen-year-old boy named Chris Puckett, accused of rifling mail sacks while he was a star route mall carrier. Puckett resides at a little place called Couiton, about twelve miles from Linton, but was fcund at the home of his aunt in the latter place Friday. When the ofUcer walked Into the house young Pucketfs aunt greeted him with the exclamation: "Has Chris been running away again?" Mr. Boyd has never been accused of being slow-witted, and accordingly he replied without hesitation: 'Yes'm, and I was sent here to take care of him." The youth was delivered up to the deputy marshal without question: whereas. If hfs aunt had suspected Mr. Boyd's real errand, ho would have had to return without his rrisoner. "There was a pitiful scene on the train when we reached the little etation of Couiton." said Mr. Boyd. "The toy said: 'We're going to stop here, ain't we?' I told him that we could not do so then. Oh, let's stop just a minute, said the youth, with tears in his eyes. I was pretty badly affected myself, but had to remam firm." Young Puckett was taken to Terre Haute and lodged in jail to await his preliminary examination before United States Commissioner A. M. Iliggins, Wednesday. A LEGISLATOR'S DEATH. Jeptha A.

He was thirty-three years of age and had for some time been afflicted with tuberculosis, which caused his death. He had long had an ambition to represent his district in the State Senate, and it Is thought the excitement ami exposure of the campaign had much to do with inducing his fatal illnes?. Lieut.

MARIOS COUNTY VOTE

Tlin CAL'Cl'S DCCIDCS TO GIVC LOCAL STItCNfJTII TO A HTM AN. Sir. Statesman However, Still Contend that He Han TrrentySlx Votes Pledged to Iljnu HE. KING'S STOCK GOES UP HE 31 AY PROFIT BY TIIK ART3IANSTLTKS31AX FIGHT He Declares that He Will Not Withdraw and Snym lie la ConfldentLegiftlative (aosslp. The speakership fight between Samuel R. Artman and James 1 Stutesman had become so warm, yesterday evening, that the friends of C. S. King were taking fresh courage and were unusually elated. They argued that the hotter the fight between Artman and Stutesman the better King's chances for final victory were. "Here is the situation," said one of King's particular friends and admirers: "The fight between Artman and Stutesman for this place has become so bitter among their friends that it has got to be almost a personal matter between the two principals. The situation that King's friends have been hoping for has come about. It Is apparent to us that the friends of Stutesman, if they find that Artman Is liable to win this contest, will turn about and do everything they can to elect King. They would only do this, of course, as a last resort, when they found that it was impossible to elect Stutesman. It would be the same way with Artman's friends. If they should reach the conclusion that Artman could not be elected and should see things fast coming Stutesman's way, they would not turn toward him, but would all go to King and work for him to the last. It would be anything to beat Stutesman, don't you see?" One or two people who have been taking no particular part in the fight remarked, last night, that they would not be especially surprised to see King come in and win in the end. They based their speculations on the suggestion that the fight was becoming too warm between Stutesman and Artman to elect either of them. Mr. King said, last night, that he had no intention of withdrawing from the race. He said he was still confident of winning. MARION COUNTY VOTE. Probably the most important development in the race for the speakership took place last night when a meeting was held at the home of Representative Ostermeyer, in this city. The seven Marion county representatives were present. Representative Whitcomb, who represents Marlon and Hancock counties, was not there. About 10 o'clock Representatives Morgan and Pritchard were in the lobby of the Dcnison. They spoke of the meeting that had been held at Mr. Ostermeyer's and Representative Morgan said the seven members present unanimously agreed to support Mr. Artman. Mr. Morgan said that only one vote was taken. The Marion county men said this certainly settled the question of the speakership. They thought that Artman would undoubtedly be the choice of the caucus and that gentlemen, himself, expressed the belief that the action of the Marion county men settled the matter. Mr. Artman declared he knew; nothing about the brewers having opposed him or of any arrangement by which they were to quit fighting his candidacy. James F. Stutesman received the report from the meeting of the Marion county men with a suave smile. He did not seem much disconcerted and declared that he still expected to be speaker. He mado the assertion that the action of the Marion county representatives strengthened his chances rather than weakened them. "I am certainly not losing anything," he remarked, "for I never have counted on any votes from this county, and I know that Mr. Artman has. I have twenty-six votes all right, and they are all outside of Marion county." It requires thirty-one votes to elect and Mr. Stutesman declares he will get the necessary five to add to tho twentysix he already has. Mr. King was asked last night if the action of the Marion county, people changed the situation with him. He said he could not tell until l:e knew moro about what took place at the meeting. THE DEATH PENALTY. At Present It Could Not He Executed In Certain Counties. An Investigation of the Indiana statutes reveals the startling fact that if the death penalty was returned against a criminal in certain counties of the State under the law it could not be executed. The only section of the statutes which provides for the death penalty, and prescribes how and and by whom it shall be executed. Is Section 1941, which Is as follows: "That the punishment of death, prescribed by law, shall be inflicted by hanging by the neck until the person is dead, which hanging shall take place before the hour of sunrise upon such day, not less than one hundred days after conviction, as the court may adjudge, and when sentence of death Is pronounced in any of the counties of Warren, Fountain, Montgomery, Boone, Hamilton, Madison, Delaware, Randolph or Marlon, or in any counties lying north of said counties in this State, the warden of the State Prison North, or, in case of his death, disability or absence, his deputy shall be the executioner, and when the sentence 13 pronounced in any other county in this State than those above mentioned the warden of the State Prison South, or, in case of his death, disability or absence, his deputy shall be the executioner: Provided, That in any county of this St3te in which any person may be under sentence or Judgment of death at the time of the taking effect of this act, the said sentence and judgment shall be carried Into effect and executed under the law now in force for the infliction of the death penalty, which said law is hereby continued in existence for such purpose." At tho present time there is no prison South of the kind contemplated in the law, the institution having been changed into a reformatory whose character 13 en tirely foreign to the execution of a death penalty. As a consequence, it is asserted by lawyers of good repute that if the death renalty were returned against any person in any of the counties south of the central counties mentioned in Section 1341, it could not be executed, for the reason that that part of the statute which refers to the Jeffersonville prison is virtually null and void. In order to remedy this state of affairs Attorney General Taylor is at present engaged in the preparation of an amendment to the section, which will provide that in cases where the death penalty is returned against any person it shall be executed at Michigan City prison, regardless of the county in which the sentence was returned. The amendment will carry an emergency clause with it providing that the amendment take effect from the date of its passage. Mr. Donham Comtnar. It is announced that Representative Bonham, of Hartford City, who withdrew from the race for speaker, will be here to-morrow. He has been 111 for the last week, which took he time he had expected to devote to an active canvass. It is understood he Is favorable to Artman for speaker. Antl-Lynehtna; and Truat DHU. James M. Barlow, senator-elect from Hendricks county, who was In the city yesterday, stated that he is preparing an antilynching bill. He said he was not ready to Siva its exact provisions, but intimated

that the bill contemplated holding the sheriffs in the counties in which iynchings occurred to a stricter responsibility. Representative George W. Burkhart, of

Cass county, who is here, is preparing an anti-trust bill which will require the Immediate forfeiture of the charter of any con cern doing business in the State that engages In a combination to restrict produc tion in oraer to raise prices. Probably Youngest Member. Representative Roberts, of Jefferson county, who Is probably the youngest Republican In the House, was In the city last night. He is twenty-six years old. He an nounced that he was for S. R. Artman for speaker. Candidate for Doorkeeper. Harry Banks, who performed efficient service as doorkeeper at Republican com mittee headquarters last campaign. Is a candidate for a similar place in the Legis lature. ALLOWED $10,000. Grafton J oh niton's Remuneration as Receiver at Greenwood. The Polk-Johnson receivership case, which had been on trial at Franklin for three days, was brought to a close yesterday by agreement. Grafton Johnson, of Greenwood, had claimed $20,000 for services as receiver for the Polk canning establishment, which wa3 resisted on the ground that he had promised to serve without pay. The court held this not to be a valid contract in law. Yesterday an agreement was reached whereby Mr. Johnson's services were placed at $10,0uO. five hundred of which have been paid. Mr. Polk reserves the right to appeal on the ground that Johnson's promise to act without pay was a legal contract. The case will be appealed. CHOSEN FRIENDS ORDER ALL THE PROPERTY OF THE DE FUNCT CONCERN TO BE SOLD. Sir. Clark Appointed Receiver by the New Jersey Brnncb Ofilce Force Dismissed Judge Leathers, of the Superior Court, yesterday made an order directing Receiver Clark, of the Order of Chosen Friends, to dispose of the property of the Insolvent order in tho office here and close up the establishment. The court also ordered the receiver to proceed to collect all moneys due the order from local organizations. All of the office force has been dismissed. It is estimated that if the receiver is able to collect all money that is due from all sources he will not be able to pay a dividend of over 5 per cent. The receiver has been notified of his appointment as receiver of the Order of Chosen Friends In New Jersey. T. J. Yount. who was chief clerk in the office of the order here, has been retained by the receiver to assist In closing up the affairs of the defunct concern. The death and old-age disability claims against the order aggregate $500,000, and there is considerably less than $50,000 in sJght.

THE BUILDING PROSPECT THREE PERMITS, AGGREGATING flSil.lKXI, IN OSE DAY. Bulldlna; Inspector Bedell Will Make Some Recommendations In Ills Annual Report. Yesterday was a banner day In the city controller's office in issuing building permits. Only three were issued, but they aggregated $1S2.000, and it is safe to say before the buildings are compelted they will cost at lea-t 10 per cent, more than the permits show, which will bring the aggregate to over $200,000. The permits were taken out by the following: S. E- Perkins, for brick block, at Nos. 414 to 41S West Washington street, cost $12,000; Newton Claypool, office building, southwest corner Pennsylvania and Ohio streets, cost $130,003; Chris Schräder, business block, southwest corner Pennsylvania and Maryland streets, cost $10.000. . Building Inspector Bedell's face was wreathed in smiles when he "O. K'd." the permits. He said he should be given credit for a large amount of the building contemplated, as his action in condemning many old buildings and fire traps in the city has resulted in the owners erecting new struc tures. The new Claypool building will be erected on ' the site occupied by the old Library building, and excavations will be gin in a few days,'' as the old building Is now being torn down. The plans call for a steel structure, which will be fireproof, six stories high and so constructed that two or more stories can be added, if desired, and built of stone, brick and terra cotta. The Schräder building will be used ior a wholesale business block and will be the most substantial building of the kind ever erected in Indianpaolis. It will occupy the Mg vacant lot at the southeast corner or Pennsylvania and Maryland streets, and work will begin In a few days. It will be constructed of steel, stone and brick and will have a capacity of 1,000 pounds pressure per square foot on the floor space. The Perkins building will be built on the site of the old west market. EXTENSIVE BUILDING. "The outlook for extensive building In Indianapolis this year was never so bright," said Building Inspector Bedell. While 1000 showed an increase of 40 per cent, in building over the preceding year, I believe that in 1001 there will bo twice as much building as last year, and the buildings to be erected will mostly be fine, sub stantial structures, including office and business blocks and fine flats. The three permits just issued show the kind of structures that will be built." Mr. Bedell is now at work on his annual report, and he says he will devote considerable space to the building of last year, with recommendations for the coming year. The smoke nuisance will be handled with out gloves, and he will appeal to the people to help in doing away with this nuisance, as there Is an ordinance which com pels owners of buildings and factories to use smoke consumers. In the buildings to be erected this year, Including the Claypool Duiiding, he will Insist on smokeless furnaces being installed in the engine rooms. Ihe builders of the city are now consider ing the extension of the fire limits, and it is quite probable that Building Inspector Bedell will recommend in his report that the fire limits be extended on West Washington street, Indiana avenue. East Washington street and in the south part of the city, where there are several factories and frame buildings that are dangerous. The limits will not be extended regularly, and will not affect the residence portion of the city. It will be the intention to include such dis tricts where business has been extended and where there would be danger in frame structures being erected. The building Inspector's report will also contain recom; mendations for the condemnation of many buildings within the fire limits. Mr. BedeH, in speaking about the building to be done in this city during the present year, said that John and William Schmidt will erect a massive wholesale business block on the northwest corner of Pennsylvania and Maryland streets, where the buildings now on that site have been condemned. The Schmidt brothers will also probably erect a new building at the southwest corner of Alabama and Washington streets within a short time. LUMBERMEN'S MEETING. Transportation Committee Arrnnglnff for the Trip to Calm. The transportation committee of the Indiana Retail Lumber Dealers' Association held a meeting at the Grand Hotel yesterday to complete arrangements for the lumbermen's excursion to Cuba. The association will hold its annual meeting in this city on Jan. 15 and 16, and at the close of the meeting the lumbermen, with their families and others who desire to make the trip, will starf from this city for Cuba. The transportation committee Is composed of William C. Buddenbaum, of Indianapolis; George L. Thompson, of Frankfort; John Montano, of Union City, and R. K. Willman, of Hartford City. Only a limited number of people will be taken cn the trip and the committee is desirous of closing ur the "passenger list" as soon as possible. The excursion will leave this city the evening of Jan. 1G, at 8 p. m., over the Pennsylvania line for Louisville. From there the excursion will proceed southward over the Louisville & Nashville route. Tho party will sail from Tampa, Fla., for Cuba, touching at Key West, Havana, Matanzas and Cardenas. The party will be absent about fifteen days. LENIENCY FOR POSTMASTER. Judge Baker Suspends Jntlgment In Case of John 31. Boatman. John M. Boatman, formerly postmaster at Catline, Ind., Tea me before United States Judge Baker yesterday, accompanied by his attorneys and a number of his fellowtownsmen, and entered a plea of guilty to a grand Jury indictment charging him with embezzling $5C7.43 of money order funds belonging to the government. A strong plea for mercy was made In Boatman's behalf by his attorneys, and several citizens of Catline testified to his previous excellent character. Boatman was agent for the Adams Express Company and for the Van dalia Railroad at Catline. in addition to being postmaster, and the evidence tended to show that his fault arose rather from carelessness In keeping his various accounts than from any criminal intent. Jude Baker was strongly influenced in the man's favor by the statements of express company and railroad officials that they have such confidence in the man's honesty that they intend to keep him in their employ.4 The Judge finally consented to allow a susnen sion of sentence during the defendant's good behavior.

A Consignment of Cheese Shipped to This City Bunn Denies the Charges. The police took Into custody yesterday a man giving the name of Chauncey L. Bunn, who claims to live at No. Stt Cherry street, Columbus, O.. and Is charged with being a fugitive and confidence man. The arrest was made by Detectives Asch and Morgan, following the arrest of two men in Louisville, Ky. giving the names of Anderson and Nash. The three men are thought to be members of a gang which makes a business of 'confidence games on a large scaTe, and which has. according to the police, continued for five years. About a week ago three men, said to be those under arrest, rented a room at Louis ville, and, assuming the name of a Louis ville dealer whose rating is given in the mercentlle reports, wrote to C. F. Udell, of Sheboygan, Wis., asking for a large con signment of cheese, which was shipped to them. The cheese, after receipt, was taken out and reshlpped to other cities, two portions of it being sent to this city. The room rented for the Louisville business was then given up and the men disappeared. Mon day last one of the consignments was re ceived here and sold ny liunn to x Shideler & Co., commission merchants, on Delaware street. According to advices, an other shipment from Louisville was expect ed and the detectives waited for it. It arrived about noon Friday, and an expressman came a few minutes after noon yesterday with a bill of lading for it. The expressman pointed out the man for whom he was working, and who was watching about a half square from the freight depot. Asch took him into custody. Bunn denies that he is a confidence man and says he knows nothing of the men at Louisville, except that he was selling the cheese for them and accounting to them for the proceeds. He has been stopping here at the Spencer House with his wife. Mr. Shideler said he had known Bunn for some time, meeting him in Michigan, and had purchased the cheese in the belief that he was a reputable commission man. THE ZOO'S ATTRACTIONS. Bonnvltn and His Tvrenty Lions Will Be Here. By special arrangement Mr. Bostock has decided to keep Esau, the chimpanzee, on exhibition at the Zoo this week on ac count of the big benefit to bo given the Indianapolis Free Kindergarten Society next Friday and Saturday. The chimpanzee's engagement in Indianapolis was to have come to an end with last night's performance, but the animal will be on exhibition all of this week. A programme that is especially strong has been arranged for this week. Jack Bonavita, the king of lion trainers, will arrive to-morrow night, and on Tuesday ana tne remainder or the week will give his act with twenty forest-bred African lions that he has prepared to be given in Buffalo during the Pan-American exposition. Bonavita Is a Zoo favorite, having performed here early in the season. Another feature ror the week will be Professor Blake's famou3 dog and monkey circus that has been re-engacred. This group of trained animals pleased hundreds of Zoo patrons last week, and the coming week many new acts will be added to the programme. The programme for the week will also include Brandea, the East India snake enchantress; Tiny Bess, the smallest pony in the world; Doc, the smallest performing elephant in the world; Captain Woodford and his educated pug dog and hypnotic monkey and other fea tures. Y. 31. C. A. Concert. The next event in the Y. M. C. A. entertainment course will be a concert by the Ottumwa Quartet of Chicago, at Plymouth Church, to-morrow evening. This is said to be one of the best male quartets before the public, and fully equal to any that has visited Indianapolis In many years. Geo. A. Gott, who was the director and leading member of the old Sehnhprf rtnoitot 1? the leader and first basso of the Ottumwa quartet., une narmony, classical tone and ensemble work of the Ottumwas are claimed to be strong features of their concerts, while the rollicking songs, without which no male quartet would be complete pro said to be unusually popular and pleasing. With the quartet as an extra feature is Miss Abble Chase Smith, a well-known reciter, of Boston. SInsic and Caketralktns' Louis J.
