JEFFERSON DRY ORATORY

A SMALL AI I)II:N:i: IltI.KS IT I.V AT 3IASOMC HALL, The Yotmi? lleiuuernt Mail- n Itrave Effort to l)rn n Crowd TuKKttrt'M Ilrlef Mnj, The Jefferon day exercises at Masonic Hall, last night, despite the time and energy expended by the yntintf Democracy of the city to make tho meeting' a success, TV e re tut poorly attended, more than half of the seats in the- hall being unoccupied. The programme, aside from the musical selections of the Montani Orchestra, consisted of a number of pyrotecimkal orations delivered in an enthusiastic manner by the speakers representing the young Democracy, and in a perfunctory way and with less enthusiasm by John W. Kern and Henry Warrum, who spoke In behalf of the old guard. Mayor Taggart was Introduced as the chairman of the meeting, but after briefly congratulating the young Democrats on the success of the meeting which, he declared, had only been made possible through their "tireless and unremitting efforts," the mayor gracefully withdrew In favor of one of tho younger Democrats and departed to a more congenial environment. Ilefore leaving, however, he succeeded in instilling a little enthusiasm into the meeting by reading a telegram from Chicago, conveying the intelligence that Harrison had been re-elected by 25,000 plurality. The first speaker was Claude Bower?, who delivered a prepared oration with such rapidity that his hearers were utterly unable, at times, to follow him in his flights of rhetorical efforts. The general impression conveyed, however, was that there had been a sad departure from not only a political but an economical standpoint slnee the days of Jefferson. Jefferson, he declared, had made It possible for the common man to become noble by virtue of his brain and muscle, but during the last forty years of Republican dominancy a moneyed aristocracy had been deekped. which no longer recognized the rights of the laboring man, but used him only as a means to more American dollars. The solution of the difficulty devolved upon the young man, and the young men of to-day would prove equal to the emergency, he said. AVARRUM'S GLOOMY PICTURE. Henry Warrum was next introduced, and after the applause had subsided rpoke Interestingly of the political, social and Industrial condition: of to-day as compared with the principles enunciated by Jefferson. Thomas Jefferson and the statesmen of his day, Mr. Warrum said, dealt very largely with the political rights and the liberty of the Individual, but since that time there had been a very radical change. In the day of Jefferson the power of wealth, said Mr. Warrum, was nothing more than a question of philosophical speculation, but to-day the power of wealth is the question of the hour. "The power of wealth has grown most portentous." said he. "The leaders find themselves entangled In some gigantic corporation and are strangely silent; two-thirds of the liberty loving press has been subsidized; our ministers and teachers are affected, lawyers have become tainted and even the government Is dominated and our courts overshadowed by theso all powerful aggregations of capital. The solution, however, Is in the hands of the American people. Not by bloodshed nor force, but by the peaceful application of Jeffersonian principles to the political as well as the economical and social conditions that obtain." Frank P. Raker, another of the young orators, made a plea for the young man. who, he said, had been continually thrust In the background. "He Is trying to break Into the party of Jefferson with a jimmy," said Mr. Baker, "and should no longer ba kept from the committee and the stump." John W. Kern spoke of the great need the Democratic party had for young men, saying they were needed In the convention, in the council, on the stump and at the polls. "Never in the history of this country," said Mr. Kern, "has the young man been as much needed as now. Wo are in the age of commercialism, and the spirit of money getting Is ruling the world. It Is tearing and snapping heart strings and ruining and desolating homes. It sees the overthrow of liberty and government and is unmoved. The flag of the Union Is to its eye only a symbol of barter and trade. The time was in America when in a contest between liberty and despotism the voice of liberty could not be hushed, but it is different now, for money is king and holds the reins with a powerful hand." The American people were responsible for the present condition, he said, and it rested with them to change them. Russell Vaught, a student in the Indianapolis Law School, made a brief address, and by way of variation Richard Coleman, after much persuasion, recited a pathetic poem entitled "Jackson Day." TINNERS ON STRIKE. Some of the Douse Fnlletl to Meet Demand Others Out. The forty tinners who struck for an advance of 22 cents an hour yesterday morning were still out last night, having failed to compromise with the contractors. The tinners work on a sliding scale. The base is now 2." cents an hour and the scale runs up to Cä cents, and the union wants the base raised to 271: cents, making a similar advance all along the line. The demands were submitted to the contractors six weeks ago, with the request that the increase be effective April 1, when the old scale would expire. May & Maier. Able Doyle, Troy & Hawkins and O. IJ. Knsey signed the new scale before the men struck, and the tlrms now affected are 1. M. Purcell. M. E. Humphries Ar Co.. H. W. Lout and Christian Off. They refused to sign and the union called the men out yesterday morning. A committee was appointed to meet with the contractors to adjust the differences but accomplished no settlement up till last night. This Is the rirst tinners' strike in Indianapolis in ten years. At the Udell Works. The finishers, coaters and rubbers employed in the finishing department of the Udell works struck yesterday for an increase In wages of 2li cents an hour. They are now receiving 17 cents and ask 20. The men say they work at piece work and cannot earn as much as union men In other factories. There are twelve men out and the company has advertised for men. The strikers are affiliated with the Amalgamated Woodworkers Union, and all yesterday a committee watched the street cars to see that no nonunion men came to North Indianapolis to take their places. The men claim that there are not enough competent men to take their places outside of the union to make serious Interference. A. A. Harnes, proprutor of the plant, says there is no strike; th.it the men Just quit work. He said when the committee waited upon him yesterday morning he did not refuse to grant the demand, but would cnsider It. Ho says part of the strikers an, boys and do not earn more than they get, and the men he Is willing to gie an ada nee. An UlophtK Couple. Mortimer Luther, formerly of this city, but now of Rurncy, Ind., and Miss Annie McLaughlin, daughter of Henry McLaughlin, ot r.ridscpe.rt. Ind., were married here yesterday by the Rev. Levi A. Knott, of tlrace M. K. Church. Mr. and Mrs. Luther will to-day return to l'ridgeport to eff rt. If possible, a recon- ( illation with Mr. and Mrs. McLaughlin, whose obejetion to the marriage caused the elopement. Their future home will bo at Rurncy. I ml In lid !ntinnxil tunril.

POLICY RUNNERS STRIKE T1ICV HCITSi: TO WORK FOR THE lvISS IZ 1. 1. CO l M I S S I O X. An Attempt to Iteduee the llnioliiiiicut HrliigM About n Serious Labor Difficulty. After a brief respite during which "King" Kirsel succeeded in driving his opponents from the field he has again resumed his game of policy, this time evidently with renewed vigor. At the opening of business Monday morning fifty white and colored men were allotted territory in which to canvass. Refore starting out on their work the runners were given to understand that they were only to receive cents on the dollar on all plays taken In. This did not please the runners, for they had become accustomed to receiving 23 cents on the dollar, and each man was supplied with a perforated book by which a carbonized copy of all plays were made and a record kept to prevent the raising of numbers after a drawing. Sinco no other company is ntar to offer tho "king" opposition he carries matters with a high hand, It is said, with his runners, only allowing them 20 per cent, commission without the other perquisites. This manner of treatment began to display Itself early in the carriers' countenances and at Monday evening's drawing several consultations were had to devise some means of getting back to the conditions in operation prior to the last close down. The men's plans began to- realize when yesterday evening about 5 o'clock as they were ready to turn their money in to thy manager the leader of the crowd held out for the accustomed 23 cents. Thia action was strenuously objected to by the manager, but to no avail, as each man in turn did the same as the leader. When an explanation cf their conduct was asked for the men said if their money was not accepted on the terms which they offered and to which they were accustomed, they would continue in their work of gathering money on plays and have an outside man back the book which is sent here twice a day. This Independence was a thorn In the side of the manager, who winced under Its thrust, but he remained firm in the rules laid down by his employer, Mr. KisÄ meeting of the carriers was called for last night In Joe Oatcs's saloon, corner Capitol avenue and New York street, to devise means by which the "policy king" and his crowd could be brought to terms. Proceedings of the meeting were to be secret until the noon hour to-day, when another scene was to be enacted for the edification of the Kissel managers, it' concessions were not granted. J. E. LILLY'S SUGGESTION. He Wnnt Monument to Hnrrlson in Front of Sew Federal Untitling. The board of directors and finance committee of the Commercial Club held a brief session at noon yesterday. Secretary Fvans Woollen stated that the only matter of public interest that came before the meeting was James E. Lilly's letter relating to the proposed memorial to the late ex-President Harrison. Mr. Lilly's communication was addressed to Secretary Woollen, and read as follows: "The recent death of ex-President Harrison has suggested to many of our citizens that Indianapolis and the great State of Indiana should erect a statue In commemoration of his great services to his State and the Nation. "There are objections to such a statue being placed in Monument place, which is already crowded. While his record as a soldier 'is a matter of pride to his State, his national reputation as a broad-minded and able statesman was made during his admirable administration as President of the Fntted States. From the many words of praie coming from those who were opposed to him politically during his lifetime, it is shown that he was broader than any political party. He represents the highest type of American citizenship. "It would seem that the Commercial Club of Indianapolis is in position to promote the erection of such a statue and placing it on the grounds in front of the new custom house and postoffice would tend to give national recognition to his great services. "I offer these suggestions and would be pleased to have you call the attention of the president of the club to this matter for his consideration." The meeting gave authority to President John M. Spann to appoint a committee of five members of the club to take suitable action on Mr. Lilly's letter. Mr. Spann had not made up his mind, last night, as to who would constitute this committee. "I realize the importance of the matter," said Mr. Spann to the Journal, "and do not feel like naming the committee at once. I want time for careful reflection." La Ii miry men' Association Adjourn. The Indiana State Laundrymen's Association, yesterday afternoon, concluded a two days' session at the Rates House. At the morning session two papers were read. One was an essay on "Advertising." by W. (L Dimock. and the other was on "Hot Air in a Laundry, or How to Abate the Smoke Nuisance," by Ren Rlowney. At the afternoon session Terre Haute was selected as the next place of meeting. Officers were elected as follows: President. W. W. Godfrey, of New Albany, first vice president. L. C. Scholl, of Indianapolis; second vice president. W. W. Dimock. of Munde; secretary. F. H. Smith, of Anderson: treasurer. Paul H. Krauss. of Indianapolis. Tlie Co in mi tee nt Work. The entertainment committee of the Tollce Pension Fund bill was yesterday busily engaged in addressing to business men of the city invitations to the ball. The committee in charge of the arrangement has been actively nt work and the lall promises to be more successful than the one of last year. Patrolmen hive reported large sale of tickets. The ball last year rutted the fund about $'2.'0. Appointment 'lit I Week. Charles F. Wilson, private secretary to the Governor, said yesterday that Governor Durbln would announce all of the appointments that remain to bo made before the last of the week. The Governor has been delayed In making his selections by the continual stream of callers which dally Invade Ids private oflke.

GEN. TERRELL'S WIDOW

sin-: is i.iviNc; ix this citv in iii:sT 11 1 T I ; C I R 1 1 M S T A 1 1 : S . The Service of Her l.nt lluwbuiid n Adjutant General During: the War Recalled. It was reported to Thomas Post at its meeting last evening that the aged widow of Adjutant General Terrell Is living in North Indianapolis in destitution. She is seventy years of age, and a daughter past middle life and unable to work part of the time Is her sole support. Quartermaster General R. A. Richardson was led to make some Inquiry about her and learned of her destitute condition. General "Ruck" Terrell, as he was called. was one of the right-hand men of Governor Morton during the war. Even if he had done nothing else the eight volumes constituting a record of Indiana in the war should be sufficient to commend his aged and destitute widow to the patriotic people of Indiana. Thomas Post voted $25 for immediate relief, and Irvln Robbins, John R. Elam and R. A. Richardson were appointed a committee to report a plan to raise money to assist Mrs. Terrell. General Terrell, while performing a most important duty in raising troops, was never mustered into the United States service, so that Congress cannot vote his widow relief. General lrvin Itobblns, in speaking of the service of General Terrell, said that because tho state officials elected in 3M)2 would not pay out money for war purposes on the order ot Governor Morton several counties, including Decatur, paid tens of thousands of dollars to Governor Morton, who made General Terrell his disbursing officer, and that, with all tho rest of his duties, he disbursed these large sum3 of money and rendered faithful account for all received. Money sent to R. M. Smock, assistant adjutant general of Indiana, G. A. lt.. Room 23 Statehouse, will be handed to the committee above named. MR. MYERS EXPLAINS. He rnll Mr. Nation' MannKer $150 Angry nt Teninerniiee People. There was an echo of Mrs. Carrie Nation's spectacular visit to Indianapolis when Thomas J. Myers, who brought the female crusader here, declared, last night, that there was something wrong with the financial statement of the venture printed In the newspapers. "Where did you fellows get your information that Mrs. Nation received only $S) from Mr. Zelgler and myself?" Mr. Myers asked of a Journal man. "Why, Mrs. Nation said so herself," replied the reporter. "Well, then, all I have to say," ejaculated the Irate theatrical man, "Is that somebody worked the 'double cross game.' Mr. Zeigler and I gave to Dr. Pierce, who was Mrs. Nation's real manager, $150 in cash. We are out a great deal on this venV ture, and do not care to lose any more than we have to. ir Dr. Pierce only gave Mrs. Nation $100 and received back t-J, 1 would like very much to know it." Mr. Myers Is very much discouraged over the result of the lecture last Sunday night. "It is the last time that we shall put our fingers Into such a scheme, you may set that down as a certainty," he declared. An interesting story of the part played In the transaction by local temperance people is narrated by Mr: Myers, who claims that he has witnesses to each and every incident of which he complains. "A party of local temperance advocates, among them K. W. Clark and another man who Is connected with the temperance organ published here, approached me a short time before Mrs. Nation came to Indianapolis," said Mr. Myers, "and made overtures looking to the formation of an alliance between themselves and Mr. Zeigler and myself in the venture. We were willing to Join forces with the temperance people and offered them half of the receipts of the lecture. They did not say whether they would accept the offer or not, and you can imagine our surprise when we saw In the papers the sweeping statement that they would have nothing whatever to do with Mrs. Nation's lecture In Tomlinson Hall, because It was to be given on a Sunday night and for pay. Well then, we became Indignant when several of the same crowd of temperance workers again approached us with a proposition. What do you think it was? It will take your breath away when I tell It. Why, they said, rubbing their hands and putting on their sweetest smiles, 'We presume that. In the interest of the cause of temperance, you will be willing for Mrs. Nation to occupy the pulpit of one of the large downtown churches Sunday morning.' I said to them, 'In what manner do you expect that to benef.t the cause of temperance?' " 'O,' they replied, 'we would expect, of course, to take up a collection and It would probably be a considerable one' "Then." said Mr. Myers. "I became downright mad and told those people what 1 thought of them. I denounced them as hypocrites for going to the newspapers and saying, with sanctimonious airs, that they washed their hands of the affair and would have nothing to do with it because of its alleged antagonism to the cause of religion, and turning right square around and asking us to let them have Mrs. Nation to occupy a church so that they could take up a big collection. So that accounts for the way in which the temperance people treated Mrs. Nation. They wanted to share all the profits and let others stand all the expense." NATIONAL CARNATION SOCIETY. State Florint Arrange to Entertain It Xest Year. The State Florists' Association held Its monthly meeting, last night, at the Denlson Hotel. J. A. K. Haugh, of Anderson, is president of the association, and Robert McKeand, florist at Garfield Park, is secretary. The association, last night, discussed arrangements for the exhibit to be given, next February, by the National Carnation Society. Members of the association say this will be a remarkably fine exhibit. The following committees were appointed to have charge of this exhibit: Executive Committee William G. Rertermann, chairman; Fred Dorner. jr., Henry W. Reiman. J. D. Stuart and 12. vi. Hill. Finance Committee Henry W. RIeman, chairman; John Evans, Meyer Heller, Fred Dorner. jr.. and George Wiegand. Exhibition Committee J. S. Stuart, chairman; Free! Lemon, K. R. Nelson, John Rtrtermann and John Hartje. Entertainment Committee E. G. Hill, chairman; J. A. E. Haugh, Edward Rertermann, William Rilllngsly and Herman Junge. Reception Committee Robert McKeand, chairman; R. F. Alley, Adolph Rowe, Fred Huckrelde and W. W. Coles. There was quite a floral display at the meeting last night. The memlers especially admired two new varieties of roses grown by E. G. Hill & Co.. of Richmond. These roses will be named at the carnation show next year. The florists say that some of the finest carnations grown in the country are grown, in Indiana. The florists will hold their annual chrysanthemum show in this city in November. BAPTIST MISSION BOARD. To the Permanent .MImmIoii Fond !?-(,-KH Ha lleen Added.

REV. E. P. BROWN STRICKEN. Former Editor of Itaiu Horn Dovrn ivitlt Smallpox. The Rev. Elijah I. Rrown. of 1221 Ashland avenue, a lecturer, familiarly known as "Ram's Horn Rrown," is ill of smallpox at his home. The attack is said by Dr. Ferguson, who yesterday diagnosed the case, to be mild. The house was quarantined, and It is probable be will not be taken to the contagion hospital. Tho disease was contracted in southern Oiiio, where he lectured for two weeks. He returned home last week and Saturday started out on another tour, but became ill and again returned home. DR. W.fl.QUAYLE RESIGNS THIS TI3IE THE MERIDIAN-STREET LJOAKD ACQl IESCES. The Popular Pastor Sny the Health of ill Family Demand n C'liant? May Go to Kniin City Dr. William A. Quayle, pastor of the Meridian-street M. E. Church, has again tendered his resignation to the church. This time It has been accepted and the congregation will begin looking about for a new pastor. Dr. Quayle's letter of resignation was read at u meeting of the official board held at noon yesterday In the olfice of Volney T. Malott at the Indiana National Rank. The letter was addressed to the official board of the Meridian-street M. E. Church and read as follows: "Dear Urethren Some months ago. as you will recall, 1 resigned as pastor of this church, adducing among other reasons the ill health of my family. I finally, hoping the family having become acclimated, might improve, was glad and more than glad to remain your pastor. "After having passed through what is the third winter In this city and having given the climate full trial I am compelled to say we greatly fear for the results in case we do not go. Our little daughter's health had been and is such as to justly and greatly alarm us. One of the family we have sent away for the winter; but the little girl we could not send away because she was so young. In justice to her whose life is so entirely before her we feel that we ought to go where her health will, in reason, be better. We feel as you would feel under the same circumstances. And while going from you Is a grief, we fear lest staying might be a crime toward those whom God has given us the special care of. Therefore with nothing 'but love for this entire church from which from the flrst day till now we have received only kindness and courtesy and love, I must with profound regret ask you to accept my resignation as your pastor to take effect on the first day of October or earlier at your pleasure. "This step has been given thought and prayer and only existing conditions would induce us to this, to us sad resolution. Cordially. WILLIAM A QUAYLE." The meeting of the board was called for the purpose of taking action on Dr. Quayle's resignation. The resignation was accepted us tendered with expressions of regret on the part of the board. The committee on pastoral relations, of which Charles W. Smith is chairman, was Instructed to begin looking about for a successor to Dr. Quayle. There Is a popular feeling that Dr. Quayle may return to Kansas City and take the pastorate of the Grand-avenue M. E. Church, of that city. This congregation sought to secure the services of Dr. Quayle when he offered his resignation here some months ago. It is understood that the pulpit of the Grand-avenue Church is still vacant. At the time Dr. Quayle loft the Independent-avenue Church of Kansas City to come here, a memorial was prepared. In which he was invited to become th6 pastor of this church again should he ever return to Kansas City to live. Dr. Quayle was at Rushville last night delivering a lecture and was expected to return this morning. A member of the official board said the board had no one In mind at this time as a possible successor to Dr. Quayle. Town Again on It Feet. Governor Durbln yesterday received a letter from E. P. Hawes, chairman of the relief committee of the town of Memphis, which was almost totally destroyed by fire, thanking the people of this and adjoining States for their generous donations to the suffering people. Mr. Hawes also states In his letter that the people are now able to take care of themselves. DniiIap'N Celebrated Hat At Seaton's Hat Store.
