Crent Street Fnrndc Precede the Advent pf the? Pnrple Show. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. FORT WAYNE. Ind., June 13.-A vast crowd packed the line of march this morning to witness the street parade of the Elks' circus, which opens a two days engagement to-night. The features, of course, were largely burlesque, but exceedingly clever. Exalted Ruler V. S. Viberg led the procession in a locomobile, and blazed the way with a trumpet. Gaily dressed horsemen cn white steeds, bands of the kind that Riley mentions In his "Circus Day, Parade." and radiantly splendid vans and private vehicles were numerous. Clowns rode old-fashioned high bikes, and barkers In festooned buggies bade the crowd follow to. the circus ground, where a "grand -free exhibition" will precede the "great allied' show." Commodore Foote and his midget sister, well known to millions a generation ago, and who live here, were a feature of the parade. An old coach of the plains type, which used to run between Fort Wayne and Hicksvllle, was brought out to give realism to a Wild West burlesque. In which Frank Falker essayed the role of William F. Cody. Huge Newfoundland dogs personated wild lions In woven wire cages, in which a trainer In tights stood guard. A hand organ stood for th$ steam caliope. "Hilly" Wilson, in silk hat and green vest, drawn by horses tandem, advertised the features of the show in continuous performance. Murray, a Muncie Elk, well known as Mack's partner In "Finnegan's Rail," brought up the rear with further appeals to the crowd to see th -aow. He rode on top of a load of h .y. w ith a bottle of "Professor Berghoffs Best," and extracted all the fun and foam possible out. of the occasion. The advance sale of circus seats has been heavy. Rain fell In avalanches during the night, but the mildness of the wind caused little damage to the city's decorations. Indianapolln Hay at the Fair.

Strike for n Trivial Cue Made n Lockout by the Company. Sprlal to the Indianapolis Journal. NOBLESVILLE. Ind., June 13. -One hundred employes In the soil-pipe department of ' the McEhvainc-Itlchards Company walked out ofthe, factory yesterday and lefused to go to work until their foreman, Joseph Borders, was reinstated. Borders left his position without a minute's notice to the company and gave as a reason that he had heard he was to be replaced by a new foreman. The company says this was all gossip and that it was satisfied with his work. As a matter of discipline the company refused to allow Borders to return to work till next Monday, but offered to take back the men at once. The employes relused to return unless Borders could return with them. To-day the company posted a notice to the effect that tho department would be closed Indefinitely and asked all employes to call for their wages. This means that new men will be emploved and the old ones will lose their Jobs, This is the first trouble this linn has had with Its employes. There wa.4 no controversy about wages or hours of labor. The men went out on such a trivial excuse that there is but little sympathy tor them among the people. PtllLICAXS WITHOUT LICENSES. Queer Derelopment in the Sunday eiosliiK Campaign at Terre Hante. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. TERRE HAUTE, Ind., June 13. The llo.uor-law enforcement movement in Terre Haute has reached that stage peculiar to sr.eh efforts in cities of this size and which have been governed on the liberal policy for many years when some of the saloon keepers pursue a policy of retaliation. The Liquor Dealers Association has voted to cause the prosecution of druggists, milk and Ice dealers, street-car employes and others who pursue their usual occupations en' Sunday. A committee has been appoinlea to solicit funds from saloon keepers to defray the expense of prosecution of such plleged violators of the law. The attorney has addressed an open letter to the police commissioners asking how the commissioners can construe their oaths to mean that some lawbreakers shall be punished and others escape. As a rule, the leading saloon keepers are opposed to the policy of retaliation. Several saloon keepers arrested for violation of the Nicholson law were acquitted on a decision by the court that as they had not taken out county licenses they could not be prosecuted for violation of the Nicholson law, as that law Is supposed to apply enly to licensed raloon keepers. The cases brought to light the startling fact that thirty-eight saloon keepers in the city have no county license, notwithstanding that a lew weeks ago the police were reported through the local newspapers as having rigidly enforced an order to clo.e all saloons which have no license.

AT THE CLASSIC STADIUM CONTESTS II KT WE EN ATHLETES OF THE UNITED STATES AND CANADA. One-Hundred-Yord Dash Won by Hoff, nit i n lu t 4-T Seconds No Records Broken Yesterdny. BUFFALO, Juno 13.

Tho most interesting feature of yesterday's contest between Wheeling and Indianapolis lay in trying to fathom the full extent of the visitors' misplays and in speculating whether there was anything in the baseball category of misdeeds which had been overlooked. It was a frightful exhibition on the part of the Wheeling players which heightened the effect of the fast, snappy work of the Indianapolis men. The spectators were moved from disgust to admiration in almost every inning and In the end had the satisfaction of knowing that they had seen the worst that could possibly happen. Th 5 Wheeling team seemed thoroughly demoralized and the men lost no time in showing their true condition after the game began. Apparently all the Hooslers had to do was to hit the ball and keep on running. It was better than even money that should the ball be stopped it would be thrown against the score board or into the bleachers. Conditions nearly as bad prevailed in the outfield and the Indianapolis batsmen were forced to do "stunts" round the bases until thoroughly worn out and finallj quit of their own accord. In this startling exhibition Thoney and Hannivan were the chief offenders and their handling of grounders nearly caused Pitcher Ames to have an attack of heartfailure. In the middle of the last half of the. fifth inning he could stand the strain no longer and retired In favor of. Irwin, who became an unwilling victim. The change, however, was for the better and in the closing innings the game was simply a slovenly exhibition without the redeeming feature of being In a class by Itself. Hannivan and Thoney were not the only offenders, but some of the mistakes of the others were those of the head rather than the hands and while counting as heavily in the game do not show in the score. Delehanty and Rothfuss were both guilty of stupidity. Herbert was a prize winner in that respect, while Knoll and Lezotte did not escape unscathed. In marked contrast to the remarkable exhibition of the Stogies was the play of the Hoosiers. Allovvay was on the slab and pitched a highly satisfactory game. While a little bit wild, this was due more to carelessness than anything else, as the game was forced on him. The only errors charged to Indianapolis were those of Flynn and Bey, but both more than atoned for their misdeeds by brilliant plays during the other stages of the contest. The fielding of the Hoosiers was worth going a long way to see. In the first three innings the Stogies were retired on lightning double plays, in which Flynn, Fox and Kelly were the chief actors. Flynn also gathered in a couple of grounders with one hand and winged them across to Kelly. Hickey played third with unusual steadiness, and his throwing was one of the features. The outfielders had much to do, and, with the exception of Bey's mistake in letting a grounder get away from him, played a pretty game. The batting of the Indianapolis players was fully as satisfactory as their fielding, and they rattled singles down through the Infield until the Wheeling players lost what little confidence they had to begin with. HOW RUNS WERE MADE. The runs were made in this way: In the first Jnning Hogrlever sent a long drive to right, which Lezotte stumbled over, the drive going for three bases. "Hoggle" scored on Gens's out. Shannon attempted to make the circuit on Thoney's awful throw of his grounder but was caught at th plate. In the second Inning Ileydon singled. The next two batters were quickly retired. Hickey hit to third and Thoney made another frightful throw, Heydon scoring. Alloway hit to Hannivan and he duplicated Thoney's effort and Hickey crossed the plate. The third was disastrous for Wheeling. Hannivan threw Bey's grounder wide of first. Shannon singled. Kelly flew out, Ileydon was hit by a pitched ball. Fox hit safely and Thoney got in another frightful error. Four runs scored. The climax was reached in the fourth inning. After Hogrlever had Ftruck out Bey hit to Ames, who threw the ball to the score board, the fleet-footed center fielder f.oing all the way round. Shannon, Kelly, Heydon, Fox and Flynn singled while Thoney booted Hickey 's grounder. When the smoke cleared away six Hoosiers were found to have crossed the plate. Irwin meanwhile had relieved Ames. He shut the Hoosiers out in the fifth, but they scored in the sixth and seventh. Wheeling's two runs were made in the sixth and teventh Innings and were the result of a base on balls, followed by two outs and a hit.
