WOESOFTHE TENANTRY

Indianapolis nttmn nFcniin;n CONDITIO IN HtKI.WU. Manrlre Donnelly and Thomas J. Lynrh la That Country at the Time of Greatest Trouble. TALK OF A POLITICAL CRIME CLAIM MADE BY . DEFENDANTS IN THE LISCH EH AU CASE. Testimony May Be Concluded To-Day and Argument Begun To-Morrow Lynchehann'a Statement. As the evidence In the case of James Lynchehaun, the Irish fugitive whom the English government is trylug to extradite, proceeds new storis of the woes of Irish tenants in the old country are told. In an effort to prove that the crime for which Lynchehaun was sentenced to life imprisonment was a political crime the attorneys for the defendant are examining a number of witnesses who were in Ireland previous to 1SJH, the year of Lyuchehaun's crime. They are attempting to show that in the decade previous to that year the conditions in Ireland were leading to a contlkt between tenants and landlords, and that the crime of Lynchehaun was perpetrated In the cause of tenantry freedom. The point is impor tant for the reason that if it can be shown that the crime was a political one there can be no extradition, according to the treaty. Yesterday was devoted to further exam ination of witneaaea. among whom were two Inshmen of this city wh wer In Ireland during the movement of the Irish Revolu tionary Brotherhood, formed to protect the tenants from the oppression of the lords. They were Maurice Donnelly and Thomas J. Lynch. Both testified as to the outrages Inflicted upon tenants by the landlords. Mr. Ionnelly has been taking an active part in th case lor Lynohehaun, and has been a leader in the movement among the Irish people of this city to aid the prisoner and his family. While on the stand he paid that he left Ireland In 1879 and revisited the coun try in 1882. He told of evictions he had witnesaed, one case in particular where a battering ram was used to knock the house to pieces, in spite of th pleas of the tenants for their daughter, who was sick with ty phoid fever. She was thrown from the house, and died later, being exposed to the weather. He also rHatt-d that th- members of the I. R. B. were at that time drilling during the night in order to be prepared to strike for their liberty when the opportunity arose. MR. LYNCH'S TESTIMONY. Mr. Lynch testitied to about the same conditions as those described by Mr. Donnelly. He was formerly a tenant on the Dickens estate on the Island of Achill. He said the meetings of the Laud League were always held Id Gaelic, as it was dangerous to speak English. The clergy of the land, he said, both Protestant and Catholic, were in sympathy with the movement against the landlord. Only a one-hour session of the court was held yesterday afternoon, on account of the meeting of the State Bar Association in the Federal Court room. Th court convened at 4 o'clock, and Lynchehaun wa again placed on the stand. In the testimony a question arose as to whether the prisoner had a right to tell the motives that prompted him and his associates to the deed. Commissioner Moores decided that he be allowed to tell the' motives that prompted him, but he could not testify as to his associates. The question then arose whether he committed the crime as an individual or in league with others. Attorney La Follette claimed that if it were done as an individual the crime did not fall under a political head. Attorney Fox said that the proceedings must rest on the testimony of the fugitive. The defense made the point that it was a political crime for the reason that the attorney general assisted in the prosecution of the case. The testimony of Lynchehaun brought out that he was only one of a Party that attacked Agnes McDonald. There were sixteen iu the party, but Lynchehaun was the only one arrested. He was taken the following morning to Castlebar. where he escaped, but was rearrested and held on the charge of assault with intent to kill. Judge Gibson, of Castlebar. assisted by the attorney general, tried and convicted him. Lynchehaun testified that his act was done to further the movement for liberty. The court will convene again this afternoon, and the evidence will be completed, it Is expected. The argument of the case will probably be taken up to-morrow. It is said by Irishmen of this city that the case has done more to bring to light conditions In Ireland than any meeting the Irish people have ever held in America. SIMON Y ANDES MEMORIAL. Tribute to His Life by Former Associates in the Law. A meeting of the Bar Association of this city was held in the Federal Court room yesterday afternoon to take action on the death of Simon Yandes, the oldest practitioner at the bar in this State. The meeting was presided over by W. H. II. Miller. Many prominent attorneys spoke on Mr. Yandes's life and his qualifications as a lawyer. Among those present were Addison C. Harris. John R. Wilson, Edward Daniels, John T. Dye, Harry Milligan, Gen. John Coburn, Ferdinand Winter. John S. Duncan, Louis Newberger, Charles W. Smith, Frank E. Gavin and Merrill Moores. Mr. Daniels read the following memorial, which was adopted: "The long and useful life of Simon Yandes has peacefully closed. What words save tae supplest are requisite to tell its story? What picture of It save the truthfulest would he himself bid us draw? Waal praise save the ahaanront would he take at our hands? "Simon Yandes was born in Fayette county, Pennsylvania. Jan. 5, 1816 the birth year of the State. He came with his pareuts to the then village of Indianapolis in lHl'l the year in which the town of Indianapolis was laid out. Thenceforward Indianapolis, as village, town and city, continued to be his home until the day of his death. He died in Indianapolis at the home of his sister, ou East Washington street, on Oct. 5. 19U3. As a youth he attended a private school in Indianapolis taught by Ehcnexer Sharp, and later he spent a year at the Indiana State University. In 1838 he went to the Harvard law BObaai, where his Instructors were Justice Joseph Story and Simon Greenleaf. and among his fellow -students were William M. Kvarts, afterward secretary of state in President Hayes s Cabinet; E. Rock ford Hoar, afterward attorney general in President Grant's Cabinet, and Charles Devens. afterward attorney general in President Hayes's Cabinet. Justice Story was. in Mr. landes's opinion, almost an ideal jurist, and th relations of these two men were quite intimate, and after Mr. Yandes had received his degree in the Harvard law school, in 1S3S, and returned to Indianapolis these re lations were continued by correspondence. Mr. Yandes was also an occasional cm respondent of Judge Hoar, Judge Devens and Mr. Evarts. "Upon his return to Indianajtolis Mr. Yandes became a partner of Fletcher & Butler, then the leading law firm in the State; later he became a partner of Oliver H. Smith and afterwards of Cyrus C Hines. In 158 Mr. Yandes was a candidate for the Supreme bench on the R publican ti ket. with Col. Abram W. Hendricks, Judge Horace P. Biddle and William D. GrUwold, of Terre Hsute. This nomination did not come unsought. There was an active contest for the position. F. M. Finch being Mr. Yandes's competitor. Mr. Yandes's practice was large and varied, both iu the Federal and the State courts. Important probate, commercial and ipornte interests were placid in his charge by home and foreign clients. II. was not u Jury lawyer, but ua a Ailcudcr at common

law and In equity and aa a practitioner before the Judge he was regarded as the I " 1 t of any lawyer In the BUta. He was precise but not technical, logical but not coldly analytic, well rend In the law but not embarrassed by precedents. His moral Integrity was a granite rock and his Intellectual poise whs akin to It. He did not have that large Imaginative potter that is ne.-ded for the making of an orator, but his full information, happy humor and power of accurate statement made htm a strong speaker. As a counselor he was at his best. HI falr-mind dness. his wide foresight and his strong mental grasp qualified him t see all sides of a question and to advise a course which always proved to be the right one. "As a lawyer, his chief limitation was personal to himself; it was his habit of making his client's cause his own. After twenty year? of active practice the nervous strain of this habit had begun to tell on his physical health, and from this cause, coupled with the fact that he had been able to accumulate a fortune of something like 20.m. and that he thought himself qualified to beÖaajM a successful Investor of capital. Mr. Yandes began to retire from the practice of law and in a few years he was giving his whole attention to his OWB business. As a business man he whs exceptionally successful. His aggregate wealth, computing property disbursed as well as that retained by him. was. in the last year of his life, over 180 00. Mr. Y indes never married and having no direct hlra, he. saying it would l- pr.ir for him to settle his own estate, began years ago to make large gifts to educational and religious objects, and continued to do so down to the time of his death, and by trust arrangement he also made ample provisions for his r latives. "Simon Yandes was tall and spare, in physical frame. intellectuality was the dominant characteristic of his mind. "His moral life was without daw or twist. His mold was the mold of Abraham Lincoln. I nder an exterior of reserve he ktpt, an equable mind, a generous nature and a courageous spirit. He was proud of the fact that he was a member of the Indiana bar. The Indiana bar is proud of Simon Yandes as well for what he was as for what he did."

ATTACKED BY A WAITER Wt t. nYE. COLUMBIA ( LI B STUWAKD, I) VM.KKOl SLY STARIIF.U. 11. E. Clayton, a Colored Employe, Inflict Severn! Wounds With, a Knife and Escapes. W. C. Bayne, steward at Um Columbia Club, was last night seriously stabbed by R. E. Clayton, a colored waiter, who im agined he had a grievance against his su perior. Clayton provoked a quarrel with Mr. Bayne, it is said, and struck him BOV eral times, and when Bayne struck ban k the negro attacked him with a long-bl ul. d knife, inflicting six or eight deep and ugly wounds, which, it is said, may result latally. With three gashes in his back, two in his abdomen and one In his chest, Mr Bayne struck his assailant, knocking him prostrate- to the floor, but In an Instant the colored man was on his feet and before he could be headed off ran out of the club building and disappeared In the darkness. After the excitement of the encounter was over Mr. Bayn. n lllzed that he was seriously injured and became very weak from loss of blood. He was attended by Dr. George "W. Combs and was later taken to his home on North East stret In a carriage. Dr. Combs said last night that while Mr. Bayne was seriously injured his wounds would not necessarily prove fatal. The unfortunate affair is greatly regretted at the Columbia Club and every effort will be made to bring the guilty negro to justice, although he succeeded In eluding the police last night. Blcyciemen Trimpe and Lowe were detailed on the case, but before they arrived at the Columbia Club Clayton had fled from the premises and a long search last night failed to reveal his hiding place. WOMAN ON HEALTH BOARD LOCAL COUNCIL OF WOME VY ASK SUCH A OFFICIAL. Mrs. May Wright Serrall Sends a Communicatloa to the Body Routine of the Meeting. The Local Council of Women convened for the first time since the summer's vacation yesterday afternoon at the Propylaeum. Owing to changes in the delegates and officers of the affiliated societies the personn-i of the council differed from thai of the last meeting of the previous year, but the same spirit of earnestness was evident in the actions of the body. The preliminary business occupied the first hour of the meeting, and Included the introduction of several resolutions, the moat important of which was one introduced by Mrs. H. H. Hall as delegate of the Young Woman's Christian Association, urging that the members of the women's clubs of the city contribute to a fund for employing a woman official at the Union Station, whose business it should be to direct young women who are strangers in the city to reputable boarding houses and lodgings. The resolution creat d much feeling and was warmly adopted. Mrs. Day, the president of the council, spoke of the urgent need of a garden committee fat the purpose of beautifying the yards and lawns of the city and commended Mrs. Sewall's earnest advocacy of this movement and her efforts through the summer to accomplish some definite results in this work. Following Mrs. Day's talk the secretary read a communication from Mis Sewail, who asked the council's considera tion of four points: Her resignation of. the chairmanship of the garden committee, the consideration of plans for entertaining the national executive of the council this year, her withdrawal from the chairmanship of the committee on the pt fan. onatration next spring and her urgent deatra that the council should effect the appointment of a woman to the dtv Board of Health. Uater in the afternoon this last question was taken np by Mrs. Moodv. who introduced a resolution that the council should send letters to each one of the three "dominant"' candidates for mayor immediately, asking his promise that a woman should be appointed to such office. Mrs Moody declared that it would be very easy for the council to get any one of these gentlemen to make such a promise at this moment, as they were now In a mood to promise anything, and the resolution was carried. The question of Saturday or Monday pay days was also introduced by Mrs. Moody in her report of the work of the Consumers' League and she advocated the appointment of committees that would call upon the heads of factories to ask them to make their weekly pay day Monday instead of Saturday, because of the added possibilities of carousing which a day i rest following the Saturday pay day. together with the possession of a whole week's wages, give.. Before the question was put to vote, however, it was urged by other members of the council that the heads of the factories might perhaps think the council meddlesome if it attempted to dictate the management cf their business and the question was laid on the table. Other business of the meeting included the report of the Philomathfan Club, and the secretary and treasurer's report. Following the council business Mrs. Lois O. Hufford read one of the moat delightful papers ever read before the council. Mrs Hufford! subject was "The Office of Poetry," and her treatment of It was thoroughly enjoyable. She said the poetry had many offices, among them the uplifting and ennobling of commonplace things, the enriching and expanding of the language and tbe giving of a true measure of values and the motive for aspiration and endeavor. A number of visitors were present among the council members to hear Mrs. Hufford' purer. You've heard some Champagnes are good. Form an opinion oi your own founded on taste. You'll find Cook's Imperial better.

C.KEAT REPUBLICAN MEETING IN WEST INDIANAPOLIS. The t roud Enjoyn the Points Scored l Mar Bookwalter Against the Indianapolis Nerra. HIT IT HARDER, CHARLIE SICH i:( liMTIOS FHEQl I VI 1 11 not taint T HIS SPEECH. 1 he Mayor Cordially Welcomed at llnrdina and Morris Strecls Othther Republican Meetings. "Hit it harder, hit it harder, Charlie," was the prompting cry at the Republican meeting last night at the corner of Harding and Morris streets. West Indianapolis, while Mayor Bookwalter w is making his speech and dealing the Indianapolis News a few blows on the side. Although it has been said by some people that they thought Bookwaltcr would be much more effective if he did not devote so much of his time to scoring the News, it was shown in the meeting last night that the people cannot get enough of this kind of political repartee. Every shot which Mayor Bookwaiter fired at the News last night and they were not as hot as usual was received with heavy applause and promptings of "hit it harder. Charlie." The meeting was one of the largest and most enthusiastic of the Republican outdoor gatherings. A fair estimate of the crowd was 500, and with few exceptions it seemed to be with Hookwalter. Former Attorney General W. 1 Taylor was booked for one of the spe. ch. s. but he failed to arrive, consequently the mayor made a longer talk than he had expected, although he had two other meetings to attend. Aside from touching on the report of the Citizens' League at several points, he devoted the greater part of his speech to the work done by the city administration, curtailing to some extent his attack on the N''W8. DEBT OF TBE C ITY. The point that he emphasized In the report of the Citizens' League was the charge that the debt of the city had been increased nearly $3.O00 by the present city administration. He said that if he could prove the falsity of one statement It could be Inferred whether or not the others could stand amb 1 Hfl began by enumerating the bonds that had been issued for boulevards and other purposes, the total number aggregating a bond issue of $h5,000 instead of nearly fcod.000, as stated by the report. At the same time he showed .that $83.)00 of the bonded debt had been paid off. cutting down the debt to $112.oao. Further, he showed that Where the administration had issued bonds the city had profited. Hie final figures demonstrated that the city administration is J9U.0O0 better off than two years ago. He drove his argument home by saying that the figures were on the city books open to the. inspection of any who cared to examine them and ascertain their correctness. At this point the mayor sent one of his flashing remarks home to Mr. Dunn and the crowd turned the laugh on the News stenographer, who was transcribing the mayor's speech just below him. "Hit him again" someone cried, but Mr. Bookwalter said that he did not want to hit any harder than was necessary. "I am in good humor." he said, "I'm not mad. Its the other fellows that are mad." Relative to the incident he remarked that the News was following him in every meeting with a shorthand stenographer In an attetnpt to catch him up in some statement. "They get all my speeches," he continued, "but I notice that they don't print them. I only wish they did. And you will notice they did not print the speech of Mr. Newlin Thursday night at Masonic Hall. In which he said the editor of the News upraided him for fighting Holtzman on his record. Mr. Newlin said that the editor offered him special rates on advertisements on the condition that he wouldn't carry the war too bitterly against Holtsman and would lend his assistance in defeating Bookwalter. VITAL POINT HUM IX AT KD. "And if you have noticed further in the letter of Joseph W. Selvage, printed in the News, you will see that all the letter was printed except the paragraph which said that there was no hope for Holtzman and advising the opposition to vote for Mr. Hitz. This is the sample of their courage. And yet- they call me a grafter. It seems to me the editor of that paper is the grafter. He has not only had a post-graduate course in graft, but he has taken the thirty-third degree." The meeting was presided over by John Abbott. k Short talks were also made by Thomas Whallon, candidate for judge of the Police Court, and T. J. Yount. candidate for city clerk. Judge Whallon said that he had been attacked as well as Mayor Bookwalter and one of the pledges of the Democratic candidate for police judge was that he would reform the Police Court. He gave figures showing the excellent work the court has done under his administration and asked if any fair citizen could say that it needed reforming. LECTURE ON ATHLETICS. Hev. IackintoMhfc Address to the Stndents of Shortridge High School. The Shortrldge students met in the hall yesterday morning for the first time this year to hear an address by Rev. Mackintosh of the Fourth Presbyterian Church. Mr. Benton Introduced -he speaker and also warned the students to be moderate iu their applause on all occasions. Mr. Mackintosh announced his subject as Athletics in General " He said the reason that most of our prominent men were country boys is because the lad who lives on the farm is more fully developed in every direction. He gets plenty of exercise and this Is largely the reason why he can concentrate his mind upon a subject when the time comes. He also compared the followers of MonasticJsm to the Greeks who have left more to posterity than any other race. Mr. Mackintosh emphasize. 1 that to be an athletic man was not merely to be a member f some athletic team, but to indulge In all manly exercises. Pure alr,wat r, food and moderate exercises are. he claims, the four requisites for a healthy person, both in mind and body. The speaker next brought out the importance of deep breathing. Bryan, one of the greatest political speakers in the country, he says, can make four or live speeches daily for weeks at a stretch and his voice and nervous system never fail hfm because he breathes plenty of pure air. While Mr. Bryan is on a platform waiting until the Introductory' speech has Ix'en made he usually spends his time in taking deep breaths, w hicn invigorate his whole system. Mr. Mackintosh closed his thirty-minute talk with an appeal to the boys to elevate the word "sport" and rid It of its mingled meaning of rowdyism. He expressed the hope that Shortrldge would be victorious In the coming athletic contests Tax Receipt a Poor Detective. John D. Cooney. 1721 Kentucky avenue. Is alive and well. but. in spite of that fact, a report in some of the local papers had him dead in Texarkana. Tex., three weeks ago. A man unknown recently died In that city, and he was identified as Cooney by a tax receipt from the treasurer of Marion county, which was found in his paoket. An administrator was apfMiiuted for the estate of the supjMiscd Mr. Cooney. and It was the inquiry of the administrator as to the property of the deceased that led to the i.'ix . -cry that Cooney was here and alive and well instead of dead in Texas. Mr. Cooney

saiil yesterday that he was unable to explain the presence of the tax receipt In the pocket of the dead man.

Frank Baldwin, of the Department of the Colorado, to Miss Adele Reaume, a prominet t young society woman of this city. The prospective groom left Denver last night for Indianapolis.

Drum will make their home in Denver after Oct. 25, IM turning there after an extended wedding journey. Lieutenant Drum is a brother of Mr. A. L. Drum, of the Indiana Union Traction Company. E.W.TOWNSENDINTHECITY AUTHOR OF "CIIIMMIE F A11DEV STOR1FS MSITING HIS BROTHER. He Began Ilia cwnpnper Career on tbe Nw York Sun Speaks of Julian Ralph. Edward w. Townaeod, of New York, the man who writes the "Chimmie Fadden" stories, is in Indianapolis, the guest of his brother, George Townsend, president of the Indianapolis & Northwestern Traction Company. The "Chimmie Fadden" stories, which are published in the Sunday Journal each week, have a vogue all over the country and are extremely popular. Mr. Townsend is a product of the NewYork Sun when it was under the personal management of Charles A. Dana. 3k?r. Townsend was attached to the 8uu from about 1879 until six years ago, when he began to write the 'Chimmie Fadden" stories exclusively. Most of his work on the Suu, after a few months of regular reportorial work, was in the line of "feature." or story, writing. At that time, and for a good many years after, he was closely associated on the Sun with Julian Ralph, John R. Spears, Oscar King Davis and George Barry Mallon. The hitter is now city editor of the New York Sun. "Julian Ralph was the 'big man' on the Sun when I went to work there, and for a good many years after," said Mr. Townsend at the Columbia Club last night. "I worked OB the Sun several months before I became acquainted with Mr. Ralph. One day I was sitting at my desk when Ralph came along, and. putting his hand on my shoulder, said: 'You're doing all right, my boy.' That meant a good deal, 1 assure you. Ralph was the peer of them all. Ralph could find something Interesting to write about anything. He always found something newsomething the rest of the newspaper men had overlooked." Mr. Townsend made the personal acquaintance of Rudyard Kipling in 1878 at a naval dinner at the Bohemia ciub in San Francisco when he was on his way from Bombay to England. Mr. Kipling was then becoming known all over the Knglish-speaking world by his writings. A short time before this his "Soldiers Three" had been published in England. TUMBLES FROM SCAFFOLD.
