I'orecitr of Action of ToMsht CaniiIlevllon of the Halen. All qu.t--t.ions concerning th.3 preliminary organization of the Senate were finally adJusted yesterday afternoon and last night as a result of several conferences between Lieutenant Governor Gilbert and a number of the prominent senators. The outcome is that the following slate, which has heretofore been unofficially forecasted, i3 now announced a3 the programme which will be carried out at to-night's caucus: President Pro Tern. F. E. Matson, In- t diana polls. Caucus Chairman E. A. Dausman, Goshen. Joint Caucus Chairman W. A. Kittinger, Anderson. Secretary Harmon L. Hutson, Indianapolis. Assistant Fred Snyder. Angola. Doorkeeper Clemar I'elzer, IJoonville. Senator Kittinger, who has been a candidate for caucus chairman, last evening withdrew and ho will be made the Senate's choice for chairman of the Joint caucus which will nominate Senator Fairbanks for re-election. It is established precedent that the chairman of this Joint caucus shall be a member of the Senate. As a result of these arrangements everything Is In order for a harmonious caucus and opening of the session. Every member of the majority is well pleased with the programme and the Senate will start off under. the most auspicious conditions. One of the best features of the openlnj is that the committee on rules will be ready to report the first day. and for the first time In its history the Senate will be able to get down to actual work on the second day of the session. The Republican members of the committee on rules are Senaters F. E. Matson, Indianapolis; A. D. Ogborn. New OastTe; Fremont Goodwlne, WilHamsport. and E. A. Dausman. Goshen. This committee was named by Lieutenant Governor Gilbert shortly after the majority caucus, held hero several weeks ago, and its work is almost concluded. The committee took the old rules as a basis, but ha3 made many changes. The old rules, apparently, have not been changed for forty or fifty years, as they Included several regulations that have long. been obsolete. For Instance, one rule provided that it shall be the duty of the principal doorkeeper to see that ihe fires of the Senafe chamber are kept going. Eliminations and additions have been made, and the new rules will be in every sense up to date and adapted to the most expeditious transaction of business. The arrangement of committees has also been changed in several respects, some of the old committees being done away with and some new ones created. The qualifications committee, composed of Senators Wood, Ball and Gochenour, did not have a meeting yesterday, but the members will get together at 9 o'clock this morning to go o.ver the list of Senate employes. . sciiinnnu the stateiiouse. .Custodian lvreltensteln anil Engineer Shutt Have Labored Untiringly. Two men have labored like Trojans preparing for the session of the Legislature. They are MaJ. George W. Kreitensteln, custodian of the Statehouse, and Engineer Samuel Shutt. Their work has been gofng on quietly and unostentatiously for the past month, and the result is apparent in the general air of renovation and rehabilitation. The werk of getting the Statehouse ready, while not as onerous perhaps as Hercules found the job of cleaning the Augean stables, 13 not child's play by any means.. Under the direction of the two chiefs corps of men have worked almost night and day. The woodwork in almost every room in the big building has been revarniihed and polished. From basement to dome the Statehouse has been scrubbed and scraped .and It glistens and shines with the elbow grease applied by the employes. For the first time In fourteen years new carpets have been placed In the Senate and the House and the warm color of the heavy Brussels adds greatly to the comfortable appearance of the room?. Xew linoleum has been placed on the floors of the lobbies of the Senate and House and the lackers for the use of members of both houses have been overhauled and put in shape. New furniture has been purchased and placed in the committee rooms. Engineer Shutt has seen to it that the TO-DAY'S WEATHER FORECAST.

lights are in proper shape and that the electric wiring is well done. He has overhauled the heating plant and the statesmen need not fear getting chilly during the session. Telephones have been freely put in for the use of the legislators by Superintendent Shutt. Frank C. Robert, assistant custodian, and Frank J. Turk, of the custodian's office, have assisted in the work of preparing for the session. AN EXCLISIVE AFFAIR.

Minority Legislators Have n Love Feast at the Grand Hotel. The minority love feast last night was an exclusive affair, the doors being barred to every one not a Democratic member of the General Assembly. Several of the "leading lights" of the party who are not legislators were in the city, but they were not invited as guests of honor, and as for reporters, they were not supposed to come within hailing distance of the dining room. The affair was well attended, practically every one of the fourteen senators and thirty-four representatives of the minority being present. The dinner was served in the ordinary at the Grand at 7 o'clock, and it was almost midnight before the "feast of reason and flow of soul" was at an end. Senntor W. H. O'Brien, of Lawrenceburg, the Democratic state chairman, presided as toastmaster. and the principal speakers were Senators Fortune, Fleming and O'Brien and Representatives Slack and Adair. Nearly every man present, however, contributed a small part to the postprandial programme. At the conclusion of the affair the members of the minority insisted that it had been solely a love feast and that nothing had been done or discussed beyond the outlining ofa policy to be followed during the session. The Democrats claim that harmony abides with them and that their caucuses to-night will go through without a hitch. Senator Fortune will be chosen floor leader for the Senate, Senator Johnson caucus chairman and Senator O'Brien joint caucus chairman. In the House Representative Slack will be elected floor leader and Representative Adair caucus chairman. The caucuses will be held at the Grand at 8 o'clock to-night. The senators and representatives will meet separately to form their respective organizations, and then a joint meeting will be held to decide on a candidate for United States senator. It Is believed that P. F. Shlvely. of South Bend, will receive this recognition. Thomas Taggart has several friends who are anxious to accord him the honor, but Senator Fleming, of Fort Wayne, is openly hostile to Taggart, and what Fleming docs, says and wants goes a long way with the minority. TEI13IS OF COLWTY OFFICERS. 1)111 to Do Awny with Confusion Prepared by "W. L. Taylor. A bill to equalize the terms of county officers, prepared by former Attorney General William L. Taylor, will be Introduced early in the session of the Legislature. The subject is one to wThlch Mr. Taylor has given a great deal of attention! His Investigation of the situation in the State has made it apparent to him that nine-tenths of the confusion that results when a new set of officers takes hold of a county's affairs i3 caused by the fact that one officer will go in on a certain date, another one two or three months later, and perhaps still another, or two or three others, as late as a year afterward. All this, he finds, results In endless annoyance, not only to the county officers themselves, but to the State when It comes time to make returns to the treasurer. An important phase of the bill will be to equalize the terms of the judges. As lt is there are seven circuit, superior and criminal judges in the State who do not take the bench until twenty-three months after they are elected. That is a state of affairs which Mr. Taylor holds should not exist. There are many others who.e terms do not begin until some months after they are elected. Judge Vinson Carter, of the Marion Superior Court, Is one of the seven Judges whose terms do not begin until twenty-three months after election. Mr. Taylor's plan Is to have all the county officers take their seats the 1st day of January after they are elected. . If the bill Is passed it will necessitate many of the county officers holding over for some months after their terms would have ended In the old way, but that is not an insurmountable objection, Mr. Taylor says, and on the other hand no officer will lose a day of service. THE GOVERNOR'S MESSAGE. Economy Will Be the Keynote of the Address. The keynote of the message of Governor Durbln to the Legislature will be economy. During hla term of office the Governor has insisted upon the closest Inspection of all accounts and has taken the position that not a cent shall be spent for anything of which the State does not stand in absolute need. The message, it is understood, will make important recommendations concerning the State Institutions. In reports to the Governor from superintendents of the different homes in which the wards of the State are placed requests are included that additional buildings be erected and that Improvements necessitating the expenditure of large amounts of money be made. The Governor's attitude favors liberality in the care of these institutions, but he will caution the legislators, it is stated, as to making appropriations for Improvements that are not required absolutely. The message will lay stress on the fact that the State Is now in a better financial position than ever before, and that the bills should be scrutinized with the utmost care in order that the good work may go on. The message itself will require about two hours in reading, the Governor says. Attention is to be given to all subjects of importance, and the document will be exhaustive In its nature. GOOD IIODV OF 31 EN. Governor Darttln Impressed -with .Personnel of Legislature. I am impressed with the personnel of this Legislature," said Governor Durbin yesterday. "The members of both houses, as I have seen them, strike me as a businesslike body of men. I think the work will be accomplished well and that there will not be a desire to burden the statute books with a lot of useless laws." The Governor expresses the opinion that the session will not be particularly exciting. "There is important business for the Legislature to consider this session," said he yesterday, "but it Is not of the spectacular kind, the kind that newspapers like to get hold of. However, I think lt will make good copy." The Governor's office was well filled yesterday with members of the Senate and the House that called to pay their respects. Many of the legislators were well acquainted with the Governor, since many of them were re-elected or were holdover members, but there were a number that had to be introduced. "Warden Held In Town. J. D. Held, warden of the State Prison at Michigan City, is here for the opening of the Legislature. Mr. Heid Is naturally very much Interested In the convict labor question, which will be taken up some time during the session, and he expects to be here again when the matter is brought up. When he was asked last evening if he had a solution to Fiiggest for the problem he replied that while he had some ideas on the subject, he was by no means prepared ta settle it finally. Legislative Sidelights. Representative Isham Taylor, of Yankeetown, in Warrick county, one of the new Democratic members, has appeared on the legislative scene with his good right arm In a sling. He accounts for his crippled condition by saying that he is just learning to sympathize with Job. XXX Representative Oliver Carmlchael, of Muncie, claims to have been the original Marshall man on the speakership question. He says that he decided to support his friend from Lafayette as long ago as the last Republican state convention. xxx J. R. Pro, of English, editor of the Crawford County Republican, postmaster of English and Republican county chairman, whoso distinctions and positions are certainly Illustrative of tho power of the press, is here for the opening of the Legislature. XXX Sherman King, of Wabash, who took a prominent port ia the affairs of tho House

two years ago. was in the thick of the crowd at the English last night. King was caricatured as "Cupid" in one of the city papers during the last session, and several of his former colleagues greeted him with that appellation last night, whereupon the politician from Wabash immediately blushed a violent red. xxx George A. II. Shldeler, of Marlon, a former member of the House, came down from the gas belt last evening to see how things are "lining up" for this session. Mr. Shldeler is credited with gubernatorial aspirations and it is understood that he will be here the greater part of the session, off and on, to keep in touch with his friends, as Indianapolis will be more than ever the center of things political for the next ten weeks. xxx Representative David Poer, of Gwynnevllle, one of the new members of the minority, was at the English last evening trying to meet Representative Decker, of Evansville. Decker is the youngest member of the House, while Poer lays claim to being the youngest Democratic member and the second youngest member of the House. The two are of the same age within a few months, and as they are of about the same height and build they may go down to fame together as the "heavenly twins" of the session of xxx There is a group of ten seats in the front part of tho Senate chamber, under the right hand of the president, that will be occupied by ten senators who will need watching this session by those who hope to keep informed of the progress of events in the upper branch of the Legislature. These seats are numbered 50, 5, 6, 7, 12, 13, 11, 13, 20 and 21, and the men who will occupy them are Senators Crumbaker, Ball, Gochenour, Kittinger, Wolcott, Ogborn, Goodwlne, Matson, Layman and Dausman. xxx Two years ago Representative Stutesman, of Peru, was "up against" a tough proposition after he lost out in his speakership fight, and his legislative path was strewn with thorns and bowlders instead of roses and fragrant herbs. But this winter he seems to be coming to his own. As the head of the official plunder committee of the House he is given the lead in the very start, before the session opens, wrhlle aschairman of the judiciary committee, the position for which he is slated, he will have one of the most desirable berths In the House. xxx Representative Hemenway, of Boonville, left late yesterday afternoon for Washington, after a day and a half in the city. It was reported that while he was here he would confer with a number of his friends and decide definitely concerning his possible candidacy for Governor, but he said that he was here merely to assist one or two men from his district who were after positions in the House or Senate. Clemar I'elzer, of Boonville, the man in who he was most directly interested, landed the plare he sought and is slated for doorkeeper of the Senate. xxx "Every organization of railroad employes will have a representative here to keep in touch with the proceedings In the Legislature this winter," said John W. Cummlngs, of Elkhart, at the English last evening. Mr. Cummlngs is the chairman of the legislative committee of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers. This committee is in session here this week and will select a legislative representative before adjournment. The trainmen, conductors and firemen will be similarly represented. Mr. Cummlngs says that the railroad men are not seeking any special legislation this year, but that they are keeping their eyes open for any measures that would be in any way inimical to their interests. xx x Among the politicians who have gathered In the city for the opening of the Legislature John W. Cravens, of Bloomlngton, who was a member of the House two years ago on the minority side, has been conspicuous, mixing industriously with both Republicans and Democrats. It is hinted that there is a method in this activity and that the Bloomlngton man will be here the greater part of the session to look after the interests of the State University, of which he is the registrar. One of his friends laughingly made the charge last evening that Cravens broke into the Legislature two yeafs ago with the sole purpose of learning the inside ropes in order that he might be better qualified as a lobbyist, but Cravens solemnly denied the allegation and defied the allegator. XXX Senator Card, of Frankfort, received a letter last evening from one of his constituents which began: Dear senator: "I see by the Indianapolis Journal that there Is a scarcity of competent clerks for positions in the Senate. If this is the case I wish you would see what you can do for me, as I bolive that I am fully qualified to do any kind of clerical work." etc., etc. "iCow see the trouble the Journal has got me in," said the senator, after he had read thl3 letter to a group of friends in the lobby of the Er.;lish. "As a matter of fact, however, the Journal did not say that we were short of clerks; It did say that we were long on doorkeepers, but this fellow, like a good many other people in this world, evidently is given to jumping at conclusions." xxx ' . Representative Charles Klrkpatrlck, of New Richmond, i3 one of the members of the House who will profit materially and directly by the election of Henry Marshall as speaker, and his reward does not come in the way of desirable committee assignments cither. The New Richmond man pinned his faith to Marshall as a candidate from the very first, and so sure was he "of Marshall's election that instead of looking out for one of the unclaimed seats in the House he applied with the custodian for the seat Marshall had reserved, one of the best in the chamber. The result of the speakership fight justified Kirkpatrlck's confidence in his candidate, and he is shaking hands with himself every time the subject is mentioned. His seat will be in the first row to the left of the speaker, about half way back, and his seatmate will be Representative Ele Stansbury, of Willlamsport. xxx Booth Tarklngton had a taste of the strenuous life of the 'statesman with piehungry constituents yesterday. He came down to the English early in the afternoon with his Marlon county colleagues to keep In touch with developments, and he. had not been in the lobby ten minutes before he was spotted by' half a dozen applicants for legislative jobs. He could not escape, even if he had wanted to, but, as he is not inclined to shirk his responsibilities, he met them with the assurance that he would do all he could for them. The siege was finally raised about 5 o'clock, and he started to leave the hotel, but as he went out of the door he was approached by two colored men who are after places as janitors, and "The Gentleman from Indiana" walked over to the Columbia Club with a gentleman of color on either arm. and his tired ears doing double duty In listening to two tales of trouble at one and the same time. xxx A half dozen legislators who called to pay their respects yesterday to Union B. Hunt, secretary of state, found him engaged In 0-crseeing the hanging of his portrait on the wall of the private office. It has been the custom for many years for the outgoing secretary of state to hang hi3 picture with those of his predecessors in office, and Mr. Hunt has had a large crayon portrait made for that purpose. "I see you are holding your own funeral in the office graveyard." said a member of the House facetiously to Mr. Hunt. The secretary of state turned with a large grin and pointed to the portrait of the late Claude Matthews, which is placed on the wail near the door of the private office. "That is a rule." he said, "which I do not think holds good. "There is a man who went from this office to the Governor's chair." "I suppose you think what has been may be again?" queried another. Mr. Hunt made no reply in words, but instructed the individual who was hanging the picture to move lt a little closer to the pictured face of the late Governor Matthews. Family of Four Asphyxiated. CHICAGO. Jan. 6. An entire family was wiped out by asphyxiation last night and the bodies were discovered at noon to-day. The family lived at 112 Liberty street. The victims are: Albert Finkelsteln, aged fifty years; Etta Finkelsteln, aged fifty, his wife; Jesse Finkelsteln. aged seven, a grandson, and Annie Finkelsteln, an eighteen-year-old daughter. The tip of a gas Jet was found lvintr on the floor and tho

BOWLERS OF THE NATION

AFFAIRS OF THE TOUnXAMEXT PROGRESSING XICELY. President Dooknnlter nnd Secretary Bryiion Will Go to Louisville ToMorrow Bowline Scores. National bowling tournament affairs are moving fast The minutiae of the great event is being disposed of rapidly and there is little left to be done that may be done at this time. The tickets for the bowlers who may enter the various classes have been printed and will be filled out promptly when the entries are tabulated. The season tickets for the tournament will be put on sale at once. Secretary Bryson says arrangements have been made for their general distribution through the city. The season tickets are good for admission at any time , during the six days of the tournament and this privilege is not given otherwise except to the stockholders in the tournament association and the bowlers entered. The season tickets will te sold at $2 each. This Is considered a low price as the tournament begins in the morning and does not end until midnight. To-morrow President Bookwalter and Secretary Bryson will go to Louisville for the evening to attend a meeting of Louisville bowlers, which will be held in the parlors of the Gait House. Robert W. Brown, managing 'editor of the Louisville Courier-Journal, himself an enthusiastic bowler, will preside and representatives from every club in the city will be in attendance. J. J. Haager, of Louisville, has written to Mr. Bryson saying the Louisville bowlers will send from seven to twelve teams to this city and that they will compose the delegation that will present the name of Louisville as the location for the 1904 tournament. Mr. Brown or "Bob" Brown as lie is best known will be the leader of the Falls City "bunch," which will come with ample financial backing to make an impression on the American Bowling Congress. But Louisville will not be the only city to seek the next tournament. President Charles F. Moll, of Milwaukee, writes to Mr. Bryson that the Wisconsin bowlers want the next tournament at Milwaukee and will come prepared to get it. Mr. Moll will be in this city Saturday to make arrangements for the delegation of forty bowlers that will come from the Blue Ribbon city. The Wisconsin state tournament will bo held the week preceding the national tournament for no other purpose than to "key up" the men who want to carry trophies back with them. Besides Milwaukee many other cities in Wisconsin will send teams. Two officers of the American Bowling Congress will also be here Saturday. They are W. V. Thompson, of Chicago, vice president, and the omnipresent Sam Karpf, of Dayton, secretary. Mr. Karpf has t?een touring the st with his trio (Vorheis, Selbach and Peterson) and they will probably be with him here. The size of the national tournament will be fully up to the anticipations of the local directory when it provided ten alleys for the games. It looks as If over 1,000 bowlers would compete in the tournament games. The entries close Feb. 10. but there are already many teams hurrying to get in. , FRATERNAL. nOWLIXÜ LEAGUE. Odd Fellows and K. of P.'a Win Three Straight from Their Opponents. Several men In the Fraternal Bowling League last night ran ahead' of their compatriots by rolling large scores. Holtzman, of the Eagles, rolled 206, while Perrott, of the Elks, rolled 209. In the other scores nothing unusual was done. The Odd Fellows managed to take three straight games from the Eagles." The Knights of Pythias duplicated this work by taking three games from the Buffaloes. Scores: K. OF P. VS. BUFFALOES. K. of P. 1. 2. 3. Knox 178 176 177 Mclilchael .134 164 111 V.

Game with Anderson, in Which Little Energy Wns Shown. Before a good-sized crowd Indianapolis defeated Anderson 4 to 1 last night at polo in the Cyclorama rink. Throughout the game Indianapolis players had matters in their own hands. IHpson and Gavitt did not play with their usual vim, but it was probably due to the fact that the Anderson players did not exert themselves: Scores: Indianapolis. Position. Anderson.

In order to accommodate the people who have gone temporarily "polo mad" in Elwood, the management is having 400 additional seats placed irr the Apollo, where the games here are played. The building now seats 2.500 people, but on several occasions it has been necessary to turn people away. On Xew Year's night alone over 500 people were refused admission to the rink. Elwood Win from Mniicle. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. ELWOOD, Jan. 6. Elwood defeated Muncie to-night by a score of 6 to 2 in what was thought to be the poorest played game this season. Elwood scored six ' points in the llrst two periods and rested in the third. Smith, Muncie's amateur goal tender, had thirty-three stops to twenty-one by White, of Elwood. Anderson Wins Exciting: Game. Anderson won an exciting game of basketball last night from the German House Juniors by a score of 28 to 26. The game was closely contested throughout and almost up to the end of the second half It looked as though the German House players would capture the game. Error In the Score. The basketball game between the Rivals and the Social Turners at the German House Monday night resulted in a score of 19 to 15 in favor of the Turners, Instead of 13 to 5 in favor of the Rivals as erroneously published.
