Glass Workers Demand Repayment.

pedal to the Indianapolis Journal. HARTFORD CITY. Ind., Dec. 3. Indications to-night are that the big fight in the window glass industry, which has been smoldering for almost a year, has at last reached a point where the most desperate war ever witnessed in the industry will take place. The National Window Glass Workers' Association, through Secretary Paul St. Petere, has served notice on President J. R. Johnston, of the Federation Olass Company, that the association expects the return of its loan of $75,000 recently made the Federation, within thirty 4ftys. The association is secured by thirty thousand boxes of window glass in tfeifl company's warehouse. St. Peter claims that because the Cblland plant, of this city, the factory at Morgantown. W. Va.. and the plant at Maumee, O.. members of fee Federation, are in operation, the Fdrtlon has violated its agreement wih A. 300. The window ttlass trust is believed to be behind the demand.

Special to the Indianapolis Journal. FORT WAYNE. Ind., Dec. 3.-St. Paul s Lutheran Church In this city was destroyed by fire early this morning. The large brick edifice, whose steeple towered 200 feet from the ground, is a mass of ruins, only parts of the walls still standing. The fire undoubtedly originated from an overheated furnace. There was a meeting in the church last night and when the janitor left there was no other fire about the building. St. Paul's Church was completed in 1888, at a cost of $68,000, and the furnishings and organ swelled the cost to $80,000. This was met by subscriptions from the members, which were made in deferred payments. The last of these payments was to have been made Jan. 1 next, and this would have lifted the debt of the church. The Insurance on the church was but $12,000, carried as follows: Fort Wayne Mutual Lutheran Insurance Company, $2,000; Wisconsin Mutual Lutheran Insurance Company, $3,000; the Security of New Haven, $2.000; the Kachen and Munich, $2,50u; the Merchants' of Newark. $2.500. When the tower fell this morning Fireman Henry Guth was struck in the head by a piece of slate and very seriously injured. St. Paul's Church Is one of the oldest Lutheran churches in the State and was organised in 1837. It hns a membership of I 300. The present pastor is the Rev. Jacob Miller. The trustees of the church have hired a hall and services will be held in that place until a permanent home can be secured. While this fire was in progress the department was called to fight another In the east end of town on the shore of Delta lake, in Iakeside. where the bathhouse and skating rink of Hartmann Bros, was found to be burning. The proprietors had received only yesterday 100 pairs of new skates for rental, and there were lockers containing the sweaters of skaters and the bathing suits used in the summer time. The frame building and all the contents were destroyed, with a total loss of about $l,soo and insurance of $500. The origin of the lire is unknown.

DELPHI SEEKS A LARGER. BETTER WATER SUPPLY. City Engineer Reports in Favor of Taking Deer Creek Race Water and Filtering It Before Using:. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. DELPHI, Ind., Dec. 3. City Engineer Shields, who has been investigating the feasibility of the various schemes proposed for increasing the water supply of Delphi, has reported to the water works committee of the Council. He makes no specific recommendation, but favors the plan of taking water from the mill race on Deer creek and filtering it. A report was made against the Wabash river springs on account of the cost and the inadequacy of the supply. He Is against the proposition of taking water from the lime kilns or wells In the Umerock without filtering it. for the reason that the crevices in the rocks admit of contamination and also admit the sulphur water from the artesian wells, and cltes, for example, the wells drilled at the water plant, at the straw-board mill and the canning factory. Dr. Hurty, of the State Board of Health, is opposed to the limestone water, unless filtered, and recommends the water from the race. There is no Intention of abandoning Snyder springs, that have served the city for so long, but their supply cannot possibly fill tne demand, and there must be some relief before the next dry season comes on. FOR ABDUCTING A GIRL. Clairvoyant Arrested in Chicago on Information from Logannport. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. CHICAGO, Dec. 3. Charged with abducting Merle Mezelle, the sixteen-year-old daughter of a merchant of Logansport, Ind., Claude Rafferty, a clairvoyant, was arrested this afternoon in a house on Michigan avenue. Policemen from the central station, acting on telegraphic information received from Logausport, raided the house at 1300 Michigan avenue, where the girl and Rafferty had been living for two weeks. Rafferty was found there and placed under arrest. He was taken to the central station. The girl's father telegraphed the police that Rafferty had enticed the girl away from her home in Logansport. He asked that Rafferty be placed under arrest until the necessary papers to bring him back could be procured. EDITORS COMBINE. (CONCLUDED FROM FIRST PAGE.) Mayor Holtzman, of Indianapolis, continues to be one of the central figures of Interest and the conclusion has been reached that he is really to be considered as a factor In the race for the Democratic nomination for Governor. An effort also was made to-day to launch a Democratic gubernatorial boom for John B. Stoll. of South Bend, but Mr. Stoll discouraged his friends by laughing and saying that booms are too numerous to be regarded seriously at this early day. Mr. Stoll, however, is unquestionably one of the ablest men In the Democratic party in Indiana to-day. He is held in high regard by his fellow-editors and the seutlment is freely expressed here that Indiana Democracy could not go farther and fare better in the choice of a standard beater for 1904. Mr. Stoll's speech before the Joint meeting of the two editorial associations made an excellent Impression and won him many admirers. Robert W. Miers, Democratic member of Congress from the Second district, put in an appearance here to-day, running down from his home in Bloomlngton to "see the boys." This is within Representative Miers's own bailiwick and several of his constituents are here, consequently his presence Is altogether timely. He is not fearful of opposition for renomination, he says, but at the same time he is not neglecting his fences. John W. Kern and J. Oscar Henderson, of Indianapolis, dropped in this morning and their arrival created a temporary stir. "I m merely heft as Kern's manager," announced Henderson. "I'm Henderson's manager." said Kern, and the crowd was left to figure out the "political significance" of their arrival. George YV. Badger, auditor and clerk of Clarke county and candidate for member of the Democratic State committee from the Third district, is another prominent representative of the great unterrified here. He is making his way rapidly into popular favor, as Mr. Taggart has made him custodian of a mysterious establishment known as "Room 21." where it is said sundry liquids other than Pluto water are on tap. W. L. Taylor, of Indianapolis, and George W. Self, of Corydon, are the only Republican candidates for State offices here. They are "mixing" Industriously and are doing a large amount of log rolling. Mr. Taylor wants to be Goernor, while Mr. Self Is after the nomination for reporter of the Supreme Court. C. S. WATTS. Plans for a Xew Factory. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. TIPTON.
