UNION-LABOR BADGE.
ACTION OF THE CENTRAL* BODY LAST NIGHT.
Employers* Interests Considered In the Matter of Saturday-Niaht Demonstrations—Ontanlned Labor’s Views
donia show that W. N. Houston and Mrs. B. Handoox quarreled over a debt which Mrs. Hand cox claimed against Houston, and friends of both parties took a band in the altercation. Then Mrs. iiandcox secured a revolver and fired upon Houston, the ballet taking effect, as previously stated, in his shoulder. Mira Bessie Robbins, of Jeffersonville, was entertaining Charles Stacker, and her younger brother entered the room, carrying a revolver in his hand. Stacker asked for the weapon, and play lull y pointing it at Mira Robbins remarked, “I’ll shoot yoo.” To his consternation the revolver was discharged. The ballet struck Miss Robbins above the knee, in the right leg, ranging upward toward the groin. While W. D. McClelland and family, of Huntington, were enjoying a drive, the carriage ran over a piece of wire lying in the roadway, and one end was picked op by the wheel*, while the other end dangled loosely in the air. As it whirled about it caught the eight-year old son of Mr. McClellan, jerking him out ox the carriage and throwing him heavily to the ground. The lad was very badly hurt. While an electric ear was descending the bights et New Albany, crowded with passenger*, the mo tor man went inside to collect fares. Daring bis absence the crowd on tb* front platform began experimenting, and on* of them turned the switch the wrong way, bnrning out the dynamo and setting fire to the car. Men and women sprang off in alarm, and one woman was seriously hurt. The car was damaged $100. Some months ago the Prohibitionists of Monroe county celebrated a local victory by the firing of an anvil, which was manipulated by Samuel Stuckey. William Huett was injured by a premature explosion, and be brought eult against Stacker and otherrifor damages. After much litigation a jury has returned $500 against Stuckey, but found, so far as tee otber defendants were concerned, that the firing of the anvil was unauthorized. Joseph Bunvin*, formerly in business at Jeffersonville, removed to Pennsylvania, where be accumulated considerable property and died. His widow, in settling the business. discovered that she wa* not in reality his wile, he having been married and never legally separated from a former wife. Thereupon she resumed her maiden name of Susan E. Griffin, and returned to Jeffersonville. Lest week she was married to William Quin-
ton.
On the 24th mst. a special dupatch from Rralsville was forwarded to The News, giving an account of a drunken row said to have originated in McCullough'* saloon, in which a
man named Renfro waa badly handled by Me- i iTk!Tr '^ ntT’ Cnllougb, and that John Baumunk, “a col. labor “ tt8t ,how
ored barber.’’ waa severely out about the fees and head. The fact is, the trouble between McCullough and Renfro waa confined to the ejectment of Renfro from the saloon. Renlro and bis uncls, named Johnson, afterward
tPreeared for The IndlanavoRs News. I Th* Central Labor Union, nt its
last night, adopted n design for n anion labor badge, which consists of n plate, of 01 iginol design, with the words “Indianapolis Union Labor” and the monogram “L U. L.” in th* cen-
ter. The committee having the badge in charge was instructed to have it mad* in different kinds of metal, to soil the fa no us tastes of members, and reduce it one-fourth in size nod have it copyrighted. The oheapest will cost, perhaps, ton cents. A resolution from the Salesmen’s Union, requesting the various political parties to hold their street demonstrations on nights other than Saturday, was indorsed. The object of this is to obviate, if possible, the interference with business in down-town Stores caused by such demonstrations on the principal business night of the week.
quarreled, and Johnson grabbed a single tree with which he ebaeed Renfro out of range. John T. Baumunk, who is a traveling salesman. white, and not colored nor a barber, a life-long resident of that vicinity, was not a party to the affair in any sense, beyond that of a quiet spectator upon the opposite side of the street. Naturally he is much chagrined at being wrongfully mixed up in such an affair. and in being classed as off-cofor. In foot he is a Caucasian of unquestioned purity of color. Ho was not concerned in tne trouble. M. S. Watkins, of Kokomo, dealer in grain, wool, binding twine, eto., has made an aaeigument. Richard Ruddell is named as assignee. Mr. Watkins operated elevators at Kokomo, Terre Hall, Tampico, Nevada and Lincoln, although it is stated that the business at Lincoln was managed by his brother and was disconnected Irom other ventures. Mr. Watkins was known to be embarrassed, still be retained the confidence of tbe business community, and there was a great shock when the announcement of tbe failure was lollowefi by a charge of fraud and embezzlement, Daniel Weaver, Aaron Crumley, Louis Grau. Andrew Troyer and George Smith, formers of Howard county, joined in affidavits against Watkins, alleging that he had stored 1,600 bushels of wheat in bis elevator at Kokomo, which be had illegally disposed of. Prosecution will be had nnder what is known as the warehouse law. The Howard County Bank in March recovered judgment against Watkins for $2,112.83, and the elevator* at Tampioo and Terre Hall, together with lour lots at Kokomo wera seized by the sheriff. Some days ago Watkins gave Soothworth & Co., or Toledo, O., a mortgage ior $8,000. but otber mortgages preceded it, one of which waa in lavor of Bntler Uuiv-rsity for $3,00u and D. C. Spraker for $1,0001 T-iere are other liabilities. The assets are presumed 10 be small. Mr. Watkins is absent from Kokomo, as reported by bis friends, on a busi-
ness trip. State Press IriaonMion. 1
The force bill should be the issue in the coming campaign. Democrat* are a unit against that and the Republicans a unit for
its passage.—fNew Albany Ledger.
There is no “straddle” this time about the tariff plank of the Democratic platform. There was one, but Henry Wattereou extracted it by ueroio treatment, and made it unmistakably free trade.—[New Albany
Tribune.
When will the Indiana Democrats cease to send men to conventions who misrepresent the wishes of the people? la it not shameful that the Democracy should be represented on a national platform committee by a rank protectionist?—[Evansrille Courier. # • * How any intelligent citizen of a free country can oppose a national election law to protect voters at national elections is one of the mysteries and ptrversities of politics, but to base suoh opposition on patriotiem, on devotion to constitutional government and Republican institutions, passes the bounds of imagination as well as
reason.—[Richmond Item.
If Judge Gresham should conclude to accept the People's party nomination for President, tilings will become mightily interesting this campaign. He would poll more votes than any other individual likely to aeoept a nomination from that party. His Domination and acceptance would strike terror into the Republican camp.—
[Seuth Beod Timas.
From now as there is little hope of expeditious or well considered legislation in Cengrasa. The proceedings will be part of tbe presidential campaign. What is said and done will be solely with a view-to votegettiog effect. Matters of the most indirect relation to polities will be viewed from a
political standpoint alone. It is
misfortune that tbe ebon seaeion of Congress—tbe one ending March 4—is not the one which falls on even years, the years when Congressmen forsake all things for
politics.—[Terre Haute Express.

i The argument used for this unusual action was that labor should endeavor to benefit their employers while they are asking con-
cessions from them.
A copy of the Ohio law making it a penal offense ior on employer to discharge an employe for being a member of a labor organization, was read and referred to the legislative committee, with a recommendation that a similar bill be presented to the next
btste Legislature.
The secretarr waa instrueted to send for copies of the Massachusetts and New York laws creating boards ot factory inspectors.
Delegate Loebenburg urged upon the
body tbe need of labor giving united support to th* dry goods clerks in their final effort to establish their over-time rule, as this was for tbe special benefit of the female clerk*. At his request a committee of five was appointed to call upon the merchant* and perfect the arrangement by July 1. Loebenburg, Compton, Darnell, Decry and Perkins were appointed as such committee. Trade was reported fair, th*
bailding trades being extra good. Several cases were reported to th* griev-
ance committee for action.
A good-natured but warm discussion resulted upon the question of what ia the best method for organized labor to uso in getting the law-making powers to pass laws favorable to labor interebts. It was strongly urged by a prominent delegate that labor defeated itself and nullified its own stwngth by voting against each other at the polls. The discussion developed th* fact that there ia an independent spirit manifested. It was generally agreed that labor must hold individuals responsible for the position taken while servants oi the people. The railroaders' Blue Book method seemed to meet favor. It was also argued that
more earnestness and
harmony in formulating and presenting its demands to legislative bodies. Mr. Kennedy said those labor meetings being held in tbe churches were doing much good, both to the churches and labor. He said that tha church people were easily won by making them acqua nted with th* real purposes of uniona He said their reception at the Sixth Presbyterian church was warm, and gave assurance of friendship. The nnions had been invited to hold more such meetings, and a similar meeting in the C«ntral
Christian church is probable.
An Old-Time Printer.
At 159 South East street lives Calvin Frary, a man who probably baa bad as long an experience in the “art preservative” as any one in this country. “Pap,” as he ia known among his fellow-workmen, is now in his eighty-fourth year, and has been connected with the printing business for nearly seventy years. In his time be has seen the hamLpress, with its capacity of turning out k few hundred copies an hour, give way to the Improved presses which print their thonsands in the same time; the tallow-dip, which furnished the light to set the type, has given way to the incandescent electric light; and he has seen the papgrs grow from the very small sheet with its little or no news, up to the present colossal dailies of the large oities. He justly claims to have worked longer at the case than any other person in the oity, if not in the State, and he is still able to get up his “matter” in good shape. Mr. Frary an joys reasonably good health, though bis general physical condition ia not robust. His eye»eight is still remarkably good, considering the strain that the years of type-setting has been upon it.
