THE INDIANAPOLIS DAILY NEWS: MONDAY EVENING, AUGUST 20, 1877.

■eatlael Bstck-Pay Salle. Bait on attachment was brought thla afternoon In Esq. Newcomb’s Court by WO. Bates against the stockholders tof the Sentinel Company for back pay to the amount of $44 28, and constables are on tha war path for something to levy on. When bank stock and other property ia found the following claims will be filed under that of Bates under a special proviaion of the statute providing for such contingencies: R. Butler, $23 84; 8. Beale, $5 41; George Cockerton, $85 51; George Cottman, $25 33; A. Carle, $68 42; George DePaw, $7; P. D. Hammond, $37.15; Tim Lyons, $24; L. G. Moulton, $14.76: John Morris, 10; Joe Maudlin, $22 20; Theodore McCauley, $10: Benjamin Northrop, $21. 49; W. W. Olmetead, $12; J. W. Pope, $4 SO; J. M. Pauling, $16 45; N. J. Quest, $6 81; C. W. Randall, $10 47; W. H. Reed, $6 67; Ed. Saddler, $44 92; C. Salford, $66 44; J. Bparks, 13 75; Harry Stricklin, $6; J. C. Tuttle, $8.60; J. B. Wileon, $1016; Ella Eaton, $21.12; Miaa McMurrr, $14 20, and several others representing small claims. By a glance at this list it will be seen that the rotten old concern not content with swindling workingmen out of their dnes, stooped to the meanness of defrauding poor workingmen in ita employ. It is related that when oae of these women came to the president of the comptny and begged him to give her enough of the money due her to buy a pair of ehes, as she was nearly barefooted and the weather was cold (it was winter) the stony-hearted officer turned her away with the remark that he coaid do nothing for her. A stockholder who chanced to overbear the conversation gave her $5 to relieve her immediate neceaeities. The raw beef editors need not go very far from home for a subject, if they want to draw realisticpictnree of the auSeringa of worMngmen and workingwomen.

Tke New Armory. The membera of the Indianapolis light infantry are considering tke project of building an armory. The plan proposed is- the erection of a three story frame building on the Coburn property, on the northeast corner of Ohio and Delaware •treats. The drawings have been made by Architect Daggett and represent a building of the Swiss style, neat and airy, with ornamented gables and rows of balconies. The entire edifice is ornamented by a diversity in the arrangement of the covering timber. It is thought about $9,000 will cover the cost of erection. The interior of .- the building is to be divided as follows: Basement—Billiard room, bowling allay, gymnasium, barber shop and bath rooms, first floor—Auditorium, reception rooms for ladies and gentlemen, officer!’ rooms, etc. Second floor—Reading room, club room, etc. The proposed bnilding is to be 100 feet front by 135 feet in lengtn. No liquors are to be sold upon the premises, and while sociability and friendship with rational amusements will be cultivated, all the objectionable features of club life will be sedulously weeded out. It is proposed to raise the amount required by subscription, for which stock ahares will be issned, reserving the right for the company to buy in such stock from time to time as it gets able. The Academy of Music location is also spoken of as a suitable location for the new armory. It is proposed to utilize the old brick as far as possible, rebuild to the bight of two stories with the first floor for business rooms, and lease the whole to the company at a moderate rental.

Base Ball. The Indianapolis nine met with inglorious and disastrous defeat at the bauds of the Alleghf-uys, on Saturday afternoon, by a score of 7 to 2 The Blues succeeded in accumulating eleven errors to two by the less industrious visitors. The umpiring was honest and accurate. The directors held a meeting Saturday night, when it was determined to make this clnb much stronger next season and join the league. The resignation of Denny Mack as captain was not accepted, the directors deciding to give him full control of the nine. Two or three of the members of the club with aspirations have been hampering and annoying Mack in many ways, but the trouble will cease now as he has additional authority and will remorselessly sit down upon them if their interference continues. R E MeKelvey, of the Alieghenys, a strong player, baa been engaged for next season as center fielder and change catcher. Tbe Indianapolis clnb will leave tomorrow evening on its eastern trip, playing the first game at Buffalo, visiting Rochester, Syracuse. Brooklyn, Patterson and other points on its out-going trip. On the return the boys will play at Binghampton, Auburn and other points, besides taking part in the tournament at Pittsburg with the Alleghenies and Stars. Tbe club will return about the 21st of Saptember.

Divorce Saits. Three divorce suite were filed in the superior court this morning. Lucy 'Wheatland alleges that her husband, Jas. L., is mean, quarrelsome and lazy, and fails to support her, and she wants a separation. Margaret S. Williams recites in her complaint that George W. Williams is in tbe penitentiary and that he is lazy and worthiees daring his vacations. Catherine Cahill sues for a divorce from John C. Cahill, alleging failure to provide. She also prays for $3,000 alimony and the custody of a child.

Senator yiorton’e Health. There are conflicting reports in regard to the state of Senator Morton’s health, and in contradiction of the statement made by his friends that he is improving rapidly comes a story that a near relative informed a friend in confidence that the senator’s case was hopeless and that he regards it in that light himself. From the first he had grave fears, but when Dr. Bliss arrived from Washington these forebodings became a certainty. Dr. Bliss was to have returned home Saturday.

Hare, Mr. Messersaith and others would also sign the bond, knowing at tbe time of such representation that bis statement to Mr. Allen and myself was false, and then filing the bond, without obtaining the additional names as represented, without the knowledge or consent of Mr. Allen and mvaelf (this is a very recent transaction), and who collect] money belonging to orphans without any authority whatever, discounting a note not due until September 25, 1877, and upon demanding said money, trying to blackmail me by stating that he knew the condition of my real estate too well—that I could not afford to put him to trouble — and refusing to pay over such money to the lawfully appointed guardian ef said orphans, and making an account against me personally by charging me exorbitant fees for cases that have never been tried and in which he never was employed at all, to-wit: $283 80; charging me $13 80 commission for the sale of the note belonging to said orphans; heretofore begging me to allow him to attend to my law business fora whole year for a diamond breast-pin worth probably $50, when the amount of the note belongiagto the orphans for whom I am guardian at the time he sold said note, (to wit: June 12, 1877,) amounted to (interest included) $281, he giving me credit om ao count for $276 (probably the amount for which he sold the note belonging to the orphans for whom I am guardian) and charging me a commission of five per cent, on tbatsum for collection, amounting to $13 80—commiseion aa above stated; one who is unable to support his wife and children and appropriates unlawfully money belonging to orphans, and cousid era this a duty he owes to them; such a person is “George W.

- A FI Airmail Vindicated. To the Editor of The Indianapolis News: The statement made in Tbe Evening News of tbe ISth inst, does great injustice to tbe flagman on Virginia avenue, when it says that tbe flagman allowed people to pass unmolested it tbe time mentioned in your piper. The fact is, that the flagman did all that was in his power to prevent an accident which was almost appalling to witness. He not only waved his flag at the doctor, but yelled at tbe top of his voice, in order to stop hia speed, almost endangering his own life in order to save the occupants of that buggy, but it seemed that all was in vain until the cars almost of themselves turned the horse. Instead of so misrepresenting the man, I think he deserves great praise for his faithful performance of duty and watchfulness to save the livea of many of our citizens. We sew him save the life of many a one at tbe risk of his own, and if any person doubts th s all that ia necessary to test tbe fact is to stand at the crosaing a little while and all can be satisfied. At times it is even necessary to use violence bv besting the horses over the head with his flagstaff before they will take warning, and yat thev say ha is careless. Aa Eyx Wiracss.
