Efficacy of the Holly Water Works. [Auburn (N. Y.) Advertiser.! Considerable controversy has sprung up in the city of Indiauapolia with its HOjOOO inhabitants, over a question settled in a practical manner by this city years ago. It is in regard to the efficiency or the Holly system of water works in the extinguishment of fires. Indianapolis is old fogy enough to keep a large number of Bteam engines 'Constantly ready for use at Ires, and also several hundred hydrant* when it would be entirely feasible to whol-

great Holly system.

Not So Very Dark After All. [Burlington Haw key a] Some one was reading the bible to Jim Anderson the other day, and came to the passage about the plague of darkness in Egypt. “That must have been terrible,” said the reader, pausing, “awful! just think of it, darkness so intense that it could be actually felt.” “Hob,” said Mr. Anderson, “that was nothing. I remember one night in East Feliciana when it was so dark—’m! Talk about darkness! Why, I had to wade through it just like mud to get home. Lots of people got tired out and scared, and stayed right where they happened to be all night. Why, when we went to bed that night we never hung up our clothes; just pushed ’em kind of into the darkness like, as we took ’em off, and there they stuck. It was funny, in the morning, when it began to grow light, to hear the things dropping out as the darkness lost its grip, and failing on the floor. I remember that I put an old pair of boots

But here a messenger announced that the committee was waiting for Mr. Anderson, and without completing his interesting narrative of facts he withdrew.

ADDITIONAL CITY NEWS.

Return of William J. Abrams. William J. Abrams, the only person convicted and punished for complicity in the murder of Jacob and Nancy Young, at Cold Springs, ten years ago, and who was pardoned by Gov. Williamg July 3d, allowed two weeks to elapse before availing himself of the privilege accorded by the pardon, of returning to his old residence—he has no home—and what friend* he has left. He arrived in Indianapolis last evening from Michigan City. A gentleman who sat near him In the car savs that as the train approached the city Abrams became exceedingly nervous, and gazed eagerly from the windows on both sides as though looking for familiar landmarks. Every improvement that came within his range of vision was noticed, and as he had not been in Indianapolis since 1869, it might readily be imagined that he saw little that was familiar. As he drew near the Union depot he sat back in his seat with a long-drawn sigh of disappointment. In the depot Marshal Manning recognized and spoke to him, and another gentleman entered into conversation with him. * '■ * ‘ wife, and was much afl'ectei daughter who has been dead some time. With respect to the murder of the Youngs, Abrams stoutly maintained that be knew nothing, and that he had been punished for a crime of which he was innocent. When told that Mrs. Clem and her friends were much alarmed over the probability of his testifying against them, or of making a confession detrimental to her, he said: “I never did that woman any barm, and am not going to now.” He also asserts that he knew nothing concerning ‘ Ike Hartman’s death by suicide in jail until the morning he was found dead in lus cell. Abrams went directly to his brother's near Augusta, twelve miles from this city, where he will remain for a few weeks and probably go into business. HU release will not aid in bringing the Young murderers to justice, unless something tarns up which will show all hU assertions of last night to have been false. Dr. Bartlett's Intentions. A News reporter met Bev. William Alvid Bartlett this morning and impaled him on the interviewing hook. The following conversation occurred: Reporter—What foundation in fact is there, doctor, for the rumor that on account of impaired health, you contemplate relinquishing the pulpit for another calling? ’ f Dr. Bartlett—None, whatever, I was never in better health than at present and never was so devoted to my work. Will you say then whether you think of giving up your present pulpit for some other field? Nothing of the kind has been thought of. I read the ridiculous prognostication of a Cincinnati Gazette correspondent, quoted in The News yesterday, and also the paragraph in this morning’s Journal injecting the idea that I was to have been graciously provided for, which was quite gratuitous. I think it is a loss of time to notice such trivialities much. Well, how about the intimation that vou had been tendered the presidency of Hamilton college? I was approached informally on that matter, but there is nothing whatever in that. I could not be induced to accept such a position if it were open and authoritatively tendered. It may also, be said that the remark, in the same paragraph, to the effect that Dr. Withrow would be called to his old pulpit . lacks spiasitude. He is believed to be in correspondence with Union Park Congregational church, Chicago, with a view of locating there. Those who think they know the reason for this belief say that the cold Unitarian atmosphere of Boston is Rl suited to the warm, enthusiastic ton perament of Dr. Withrow, and that a change would lie grateful A Dastardly Assault. Charles.Laumafi, living at 223 Wert Sixth street, while going to his work at 6 o’clock this morning, was assaulted by two men, unknown to him, between Howard street and the I., C. and L. railroad tracks. One of them had a pair of brass knucks and struck Mr. L&um&n three times, twice above the left eye and once on the temple, felling him to the ground. The other drew a knife to stab him while he was down, but several persons arriving upon the scene the men fled. C. F. Daraall, Mr. Merrick and othe» gave chase, but the miscreants escaped. Mr. Lan man is a witness in aa important case and thinks the men were hired by some one to either wound or kill him so that he would be out of the way when the case waa called. He thinks his assailants were from Yin*

BLAZING HOT. The Equatorial Wave Boning tot. St. Loms, July 18.—It is still Waring hot this morning, but there is a pretty stiff" breeze blowing from the west which tempers the intense rays of the sun and renders them somewhat more bearable than on previous days. There is more animation and bustle 00 the streets this morning, more people moving about, more business doing. There is also a feeling of relief among all classes, the greatly diminished death rate of yesterday inducing a belief that the worst is over, and from tliis time on, although the weather may continue very warm, as it probably will, its effects will be less severe, and that all may return to their usual occupations and habits without any very great danger. A very fine spirit thermometer hanging under an awning on the shady side of Fourth street, showed the following result at 8 o’clock, 87°; 9 o’clock °90 o ; 10 o’clock 91° and at II o’clock 93°. The city dispensary has been a very quiet place so far to-day, and there is general rejoicing thereat. But one case had been received up to ten o’clock. The following fatal cases of sunstroke occurred last night: William Murray, barkeeper, Richard Brennan, Susan Schorer, George D. Koch, John Tyson and Jeremiah Murphy. In addition to those mentioned yesterday the following newspaper men who have temporarily succumbed to the heat may be named: Walter B. Stephens, city editor Times; William H. Spink, telegraph editor Globe-Democrat; Henrv C. Davis, telegraph editor Dispatch, and Mr. Unger, a reporter on the Westliche Post. The Indian Exposures. Washington, July 18.—The Evening Star of yesterday said editorially that Gen. Hammond’s secret book, referred to in the dispatches from the Indian country, is nothing more nor less than memoranda of Inspector Hammond’s discoveries made as the agent of the Indian burean. All the exposures made by this energetic officer are the resalt of a plan of co-opera-tions agreed upon between Secretary Schurz, Commissioner Hayt and General Hammond. The discovery of the frauds is largely due-to the foresight of Secretaiy Schurz, the caution of Commissioner Havt, and the energy of General Hammond. l)r. Livingston, whose swindling operations Inspector Hammond has exposed, was appointed before this administration came into power, and for his appointment the present secretary is in now way responsible.

That Russian Outrage. London, July 18.—A Times Constantinople dispatch gives the following account of the firing upon an unarmed boat frttn a British man-of-war by the Russians, near the gulf of Boros. The captain oi the Englitii steamer reports that he was stopped off Gallipoli by a signal from the English fleet, directing him to take on board Lieutenant Hughes, sent by Admiral Commorell to. report the following incident: Two days ago a man of war waa coming off" the Russian lines and the crew on landing, were immediately made prisoners. A lieutenant, midshipman and 10 men, who were in the boat, not returning to the English fleet another boat was sent to look for them, but upon approaching the place this boat was fired upon, two bullets passing through the sides of the boat, fortunately without injuring any one.

Prof. John Hill, of Covington, Kentucky, connected with the schools of that place and Dayton, Ohio, for many years, is in the city. He is an applicant for the superintendency of the public schooli.

The Narrow Gauge Convention. Cincinnati, July 18.—At the second day’s session of the narrow gauge railway convention the attendanoe was undiminished. A large number of communications were received from delegates who expected to be present but were deterred by the great heat, asking that the sessions be postponed till autumn. A resolution was adopted calling for a national executive committee of uiirteen for the purpose of collecting and disseminating information concerning narrow gauge railroads, and with power to call a subsequent convantion u deemed necessary. Several delegates then gave their experience in constructing and maintaining narrow gauge lines, the object being mutual instruction by an interchange of views. The Woman Who Sticks. [Washington special.] There was much weeping and wailine at the interior department when about 60 clerks in the model-room of the patent office received notices of dismissal. These clerks were removed for the lack of an appropriation. Most of the discharged were females, and among the number was tha widow Oliver, who has aned ex-Beq&tor Bimon Cameron for" breach of promise. When she received her notice she refused to leave her work, saying that “these men couldn’t turn her out; that she had old Cameron’s influence,” and she didn’t leave during the day. ^ raying Out Silver. Washington, July 17. —No definite conclusion has yet been reached in regard to the time of beginning to pay out silver for current obligations of the government. One thing has been determined, and that is that when it does begin it will be necessary to commence operations at several points at once in order to make it possible to keep the silver out. It is felt that if payments were made in New York atone the large demand there for duties would throw silver back at once iato the hands of the government. MaC Woman and Children BLordenad. London, July 18.—An agricultural laborer named Watkins, wife and three children, have been murdered, with revolting accessories, at Staagibby, near Newport, Wales. A Spanish sailor, a tramp, was arrested at Newport, who is believed to be the murderer. The murderer was committed for plunder.
