John Shaw and Dietrich were behind the team in a wagon. Dietrich was thrown ont and sustained injuries that are aerious. Shaw also was thrown from the wagon, and he suffers from injuries to his arm and hand. Shaw is the chairman of the Democratic committee. The wildest excitement prevailed while the fire lasted, and some of the citizens almost reached a state of desperation because of the many numerous fires which have afflicted the suburbs the last year or so. Tim total Joss from the fire was about $2,000, and there was & heavy ioss besides, not to be expressed in dollars, in lawns and ■bade trees. Thieves also assisted to increase the loss. Many garden implements were stolen, esnecially from Mrs. Canfield’s barn. .

AN EXPRESS TRAMP.

Traveler Bound For too World’s Fair

by a Circuitous Route.

A tram d, who came into the city this morning. fall heavily an the floor of the United States Express Company’s office, about 8 o’clock. The clerk- looked at the tramp in amazement and thought of calling the police, as the unbidden one' looked like a huge bundle of rags and waste stuff as he lay on the floor. Other elerks came in and the tramp was put under a rigorous examination, and hie complete identity was discovered. d • #•#•• •• Eight months ago a man checked a valise In the Unite 1 States Express Company’s ofBot at Galveston for New Orleans, and then went across the street to take a drink. As he was drinking, a friend who had a grudge against him shot him in the head, and as a result he never returned to cancel the order on the grip. Consequently the valise was forwarded to New Orleans and lay there unclaimed until a humorous porter stuck a facetious tag on it and forwarded it to the agent at 8t. Louis. The tag told its history, and the agent at 8t. Louis called the tough alligator valise ‘Tramp” and started It east His idea was to keep it going from office to office until it traveled all over the company’s lines, and then exhibit it at the Worlds Fair.

THE TRAMP.

When the Tramp started from St. Louis he had two tags on him. This morning, as he lay in the office here, he had at least two hundred, and to fat had he grown that he made a bundle as large as a wash-basket. The tag* have become so many that the Tramp himself is hidden under them. Among the tags ia a bottle which came from Tammany Half, and once contained tome of the potent fire-water of that organisation. Another tog it made of McKinley tin-plate. A plug of tobaeeo a foot long was tied on in a Kentucky office, with the inscription: “Don’t chew me, as I have the grip." At Cincinnati, Agent George H. Davis appended a poem of twenty verses, reciting the travels of theTramp, and elsewhere quatrains and sonnets hare been attached by twine and wires, all signed by the forces of the office* uniting them on. The Tramp is a veritable king, and the exorese company’a employes treat him with due homage. He was at the inauguration of Cleveland, and secured a tag in the shape of a shoe, on the sole of which it printed ‘Tramp! Tramp! Tramp!” When in New York the Tramp was the guest of Sachem Crokcr, and when in the far West was decorated with badges reiterating his sociable characteristics. This morning the Indianapolis force presented to him a testimonial In the shape ef a cigar-box lid, on which waa printed the date of his visit and to which all the clerks of the office tubscribed. He was then started out to beat his war to tome other office where he will doubtless receive great attention and another tag. He is due in Chicago May 1, and by that time it is believed he will have reached moun-

tainous proportions.

The contents of the Tramp are unknown, but experiraenta have ahown that they are not exploeivea The grip will be opened ♦he last day of the Fair, and its private his-

tory will com* to light

TO KEEP TBE STREETS CLEAN

PERSONS WHO THROW THINGS ON THEM WILL BE ARRESTED.

Instructions To The Police-Action of the Board of Public Safety—Sewers and Street Improvement*— Other AlTRirs of the City.

A Big Four Switch. The city applied for an injunction Saturday night to prevent the Big Four from laying a switch on Louisiana street between Pine and Noble street*. The action was begun at the instance of property owners, who complained that the tracks were right against the property line. Judge Brown granted the injunction, but this morning it was modified so that the company can lower its switch tracks between East and Pine streets. ’ Wreck On the Irvington Line. Electric car. No. 845, on the State-street line, jumped the track at 10:15 this morning a square and a half west of the Deaf and Dumb Institute and made for the sidewalk. The passengers were badly frightened, but nobody was hurt. This car is getting a reputation for this kind of eccentricity. It is altogether too springy and not properly ballasted. The car men volunteer the prediction that unless it is put in order it will probably add to its record by furnishing an accident that will involve broken limbs and perhaps loss of life.

larity have been exceeded.

A remonstrance was filed against grading and graveling Twenty-secoud street, from Meridian to Mississippi. The improvement was to be 1,887 feet long and 50 feet wide.

A remonstrance was also filed against the permanent improvement of West Michigan street, between Blake and Agnes. The Plumbing Inspector Appointment. The Board of Public Health has not yet decided who would be plumbing inspector, but hopes to appoint one by Wednesday or Thursday. So great has been the controversy that it is likely that the board will ap point some one who has not yet been named, in orderto keep peace. The story current that two years ago when there was talk of an Inspector a number of Democrats, including V. M. Backus, Albert 8ahm and J. L Reach opposed Henry Hudson, and that now they are urging hi* appointment President Morrison says, however, that this is a mistake. He states that

IN THE ELKCTHIC CHAIR. Wife-Murderer Hamilton Killed at Sin* Sin* Thia Morning;. Sing Sing, N. Y., April 3.—James W. Hamilton, the colored ex-preacher and convicted wife-murderer, died in the electnc chair to-day. The death warrant was read by warden Brown, in the condemned man’s cell, at 10:30 o’clock last night. Hamilton sat on the bed and showed some signs of emotion when the document was read. Carlisle Harris, who occupies cell No. 8, which is the second cell from Hamilton's, was able to hear the reading of the warrant. He showed no signs of being affected by what was going on so nea» him,' and what may be repeated in his care a few weeks later. Hamilton shook hands with warden Brown when the reading was finished and said good-bye. He talked with Father Creeden until 11 o’clock and then went to bed. Dr. Irvine, the prison physician,who saw him at that time, said that he showed no signs of breaking down, and that it was evident his religions enthusiasm would keep him up until the fatal moment. Hamilton slept until 6 o’clock this morning. He waa visited by the Rev. Fathers Wallace and Creeden, and they remained with him all the morning. The same chair, electrodes and switching mechanism which was used in the case of Fred McGuire last December were employed to-day. The sentence of the law was executed at 11:18 o’clock this morning, ana Hamilton was almost instantly lulled. The electrocution differed from all its predecessors in tbst only one shook was given. There was no scorching or scalding of the skin, or steaming at the electrodes, and while the man was above the medium bight and of massive hpild, it waa evident that death was instantaneous. Electrician Davis said it was the most successful, at which he had officiated. He gave the voltage at 1,740 and the amperes at 7 5-10. The crime for which Hamilton died in the electric chair to-day was the entting of his wife’s throat at Winfield, L. L, Sunday night, May 2,188X Three years ago Hamilton was obliged to many Annie Brool ored woman, whom he had I did not live together and the tried to obtain a divorce without success. He had expressed his determination to got rid ot her. One morning her body was found in a pond with her throat cut from ear to ear. Hamilton was at once arrested on suspicion.

TTiree Passengers Injnredi In a Wreck at Anoka.

[Special to The Indianapolis News.] Logansport, April 3.—A terrible disaster, involving the lives of three car-loads of sleeping passengers, wns narrowly averted at Anoka junction early yesterday, at which time a Pan-Handle freight train, Indianapolis division, ran into the rear of passenger train, No. 3, from Bradford. Three passengers were seriously injured. Henry J. Cletnmens, a traveling salesman of this eity, suffered a badly sprained back and shoulders, and he was also out by being thrown against a wire fence. William A. Leonard, Jr., manager of the Winsted Silk Company, of Chicago, bad his left leg bruised, and his arm and face torn by barbwire. John Collins, a traveling salesman of Peru, waa injured internally. The accident is attributed to the failure of engineer Judge, of the freight, to call for brakes in time. The engine was badly broken and two passenger coaches were derailed and thrown down a small embankment. Master Mechanic W. C. fi&'P, of Columbus, O., was in the rear coach, and he saw the impending collision in time to warn other passengers, and also to rescue a helpless old lady, whom he assisted out of the oar. The collision was the third accident on thia division within twelve houre—Alonzo Rice, brakeman, losing his life at North Judson, and Walton, young son of widow Coyle, of this city, losing; both legs while playing on the moving cars. Little Girl Badly Burned. Flora Holden, the little aix-year-old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Samuel Holden, 381 South East street, was seriously burned thia morning about 9 o’clock, while playing about a bon-fire in the back lot. In attempting to jump over the fire, in a game of tag, she fell, full in the fire and in an instant her clothing wasin flames. Her scream* brought assistance and she escaped, but not until her clothing had been almost entirely stripped from her body. Her mother’s hands and arms were burned to the bone in her rescue. The family are in poor circumstances and the father is absent from home. ^ School-Book Commissioners’ Meeting.
