The medium, accompanied by his wife and three children, reached Bluffton last Saturday evening, and a private seance was given in the parlors of that hostelry. Two circles were formed of Invited guests, the usual preliminaries were gone through, and soon the manifestations appeared. While they werein full tide of successful presentation. W. I,.

The adjourned Democratic county convention met at Mozart Hall Saturday afternoon at 3 o'clock to nominate candidates for the Legislature. The delegates were slow in assembling, but the representatives of the liquor interests were on hand early. It was given out that there was a slate, but none could name it When Henry N. Spaan arrived he told a friend that be had discovered a scheme that was unworthy of a Democratic convention, and that It would not be permitted. There was a whispered consultation back of the stage and aa Mr. Spaan mounted the rostrum, he said: “Well, you get the resolution before the house and it will be carried.” While this was going on, bailiff Johnson, of Judge Bartholomew's court, and Morris Dlggins were trying to convince each other that the brand of Democracy they had was of the best quality. Diggins did not take kindly to the remarks of the bailiff and denounced him as a liar and a cur, and said that he was always looking for a soft Job and that he never was a Democrat. Friends of the two men got between them and Dlggins went to his seat. Johnson followed for the purpose of appeasing his wrath, but Dlggins continued to call him names while Johnson stood with his hand on his hip pocket. When Diggins attempted to strike Johnson, Myron King Interfered and stopped what promised to be a fight. , Mr. Spaan was pounding the table, shouting that there must be order or there would be nothing done, and commanding the delegates to be quiet. When a semblance of order was. secured Mr. Spaan made a short speech in which he urged the convention to nominate good men, gave the delegates lots of encouragement, denounced the A. P. A., and “all other cranks,” and then said that he had talked enough. Re.Holution Concerning Proxies. As he finished he glanced about the room as If expecting something, and he was not disappointed. It came in the form of a resolution to tbe effect that delegates holding proxies should not be alldwed to vote the proxies, except in the precincts where the delegate belonged. There was some murmuring at this, but thAChair put the motion and declared it carried. A number of the delegates had secured proxies, some of them as many as forty, and it was the plan for a few persons, who had votes enough, to put through a slate. When the first precinct of the First ward was called there was a dispute between William Toitn and Joe Hoffbauer. Both claimed to be delegates, but Hoffbauer eoukl not produce a proxy and was ruled out. In a short time he appeared with a proxy, written for him by a Journal reporter and took his place among the delegates. As the roll-call proceeded the Chair suddenly rapped violently on the desk before him, and when he eouM make himself heard, shouted: “Here is a man trying to vote a lot of proxies, and he won’t show them. What will tire convention do with him?” ’Throw him out!" came back in a mighty roar. “All right. John Lancaster, you are thrown out. Proceed with the roll call.” When there was a lull In the noises a man who had taken too much of the platform came to the desk and tried to make a speech for the chairman’s ear alone, but he did not get far along. "Oh, go sit down!” vociferated the Chair “I will give you a chance to make a speech, and then you can make a hero or a jackass of yourself if you want to. It don’t make a damned bit of difference to me.’’ Collect!®a of AsMeHiuncnt*. After the roll-call was finished and the Chair secured order the following resolution was Introduced by W. H. Deacon: "Whereas, Under the present system of collecting assessments for street improvements, sprinkling and sweeping of the streets of the city of Indianapolis, the manner ef such collect ions through our courts is calculate^ and does work serious hardships upon the owners of property affected; therefore, be it “Resolved, That Representatives nominated tn this convention are hereby pledged to use their best efforts looking to the amendment of said law, so that said assessments, after the estimates have been made, allowed and presented for payment, and payment thereof refused, the same shall be spread by the auditor of the county upon the tax duplicate and collected In the regular way as State and county taxes are col-

lected.”

R. F. Stuart, who was on the stage, attempted to object to the resolution. “Are you a delegate?” , asked the

Choir.

“Of course I am; and now, Mr. •” "Well, If you are a delegate, get qn the floor. You have no business on the stage. When you want to address the Chair take the floor. Do you hear?” “Yes I hear;’* responded Mr. Stuart, as he climbed down and made a motion that the rcoolution be referred to the committee on resolutions.

The Ballot.

The voting was tedious, and it was nearly 7 o’clock before It was finished. It was evident that the slate had been broken, and a number of short-haired Individuals, with a lot of proxies in their pockets were angry, and they said so. While the secretary was counting up, a delegate objected to the pretence of John L. Reardon on the stage, and said that he did not want any funny business this time. Mr. Reardon said that he did not intend to be funny, and walked away from the tally sheets. The vote stood as follows: Total vote east, MS; necessary o a choice, 325. Alexander C.

all classes of foreigners. The circular advised Germans to vote for the Democratic ticket to crush the A P. A. serpent. HE WILL NOT ACCBPT. John H. Holliday Declines a Nomination to tbe LegtNlntnre. John H. Holliday, who was nominated by the Democrats Saturday evening as a candidate for the Legislature, said today; ”1 shad not accept the nomination. It was a thorough surprise to me. for 1 ha 1 not even noticed that the convention was to be he id on Saturday, and the idea that a political convention would select a man known to be without party connection never would have occurred to me. I can nob but think the convention acted under misapprehension about mv politics. I am not a Democrat, nor am I a Republican, but an independent voter, free to act with any party in support of any measure I favor. It is true that on the quest on of tariff reform I have acted with the Democrats, and I have approved thoroughly of much of their dtate legislation, such as the election, tax and school book laws, but I owe no allegiance to that party any more than I do to the Republicans, and should it follow certain tendencies—one, for example, in support of what I consider unsound money—I should feel at perfect liberty to vote against it. “I am a free-lance in politick have been for over twenty years, and see no reason why I, should not remain such as long as no supreme issue, such as the war involved, exists. It would be incongruous then for me to don- a party badge. A contingency might arise tn which, if I were elected, my constituents would expect me to take a course I could not approve. They would have a right to expect me to If I had been elected aa a partisan, and that is a position 2 do not care to be placed in. Probably such a contingency is remote, but it is possible, and, while the office Is an honorable one and one in which I might be of some little service to the community In which I was born and have always lived, I do not feel that I could accept it with the trammel of party harness. “Besides this, however, there are other reasons why I should not accept. It is unnecessary to mention them for one of them seems conclusive and paramount. It Is that I have pledged my services for the present to the company of which I have been chosen president, and I hare no right to neglect the Interests of those who have put confidence In me and h^ve entrusted their money and bualne*s to my management. If I acre male a legislator I could not be an idle or IndifCorent one, and I know perfectly weft tftat lo seive the people faithfully and conscientiously, giving one’s best efforts to it, would require undivided time and attention. That is not mine to give. T am grateful for the ar-preciation shown me and the assurance of friendship and esteem the nomination has called forth, but I feel It necessary to decline.” UNDER ARREST. Various Offenders Taken By the Police—Some Cases Disposed Of. Walter Hartman and Richard Ashby had a fight in Indiana avenue last night, and Ashby was cut nine times with a knife. Hartman was arrested for attempted murder. Ashby is not seriously hurt James Hilliard was arrested for grand larceny.

John C. Wright has begun suit in the United States Court to compel Edward Hawkins, rectrver of the Indianapolis National Bank, to pay dividends on a certificate for $636, which Mr. Wright holds. The certificate represents the amount of money the Brotherhood of Motormen, Conductors and Drivers had in the bank at the time of the failure.

After the certificate had been issued, Mr. Hawkins says, members of the street car brotherhood came to him, and declared that the organisation had never authorized the sale of the certificate; that tbe sale was ordered at a meeting attended by only a few men. and that the scheme was to dispose of the certificate and divide tbe money among a few of the men who had been in the brotherhood. Still later. Mr. Hawkins says, he received a letter from the chief officer In the Federation of Labor, Informing him that when a union surrendered Its charter, all tbe money on hand went to the federation. Mr. Hawkins says that, under the circumstances, he decided to refuse j ayment on the certificate until he had been Instructed by the court. Tbe County Courts.

It was announced In the Circuit Court that aft appeal cases from the city PoUce Court on misdemeanors or violations of dty ordinances will be called In the Circuit Court on Saturday, the 22d. Union Railway Tax Case. The hearing of the Union railway tax case was continued this morning before Judge Relnhard In the Appellate Court room at the State House. Charles A. Vinnedge, auditor of the Indianapolis Union railway, testified as to the state of the Union Railway Compands finances In 1891 and 1892. Twelve railways pay the expense of operating the Union Railway Company’s Unea, he said, and in addition each pays $12,000 rental to the company. In 1881, he said that 750,000 cars were sent over the Belt. Joseph Ramsey, general manager of the St. Louis Terminal Association, went into the minute details of the cost and accounts of railways. He stated that he would use two methods in arriving at the estimate qf any railroad’s value; (1) the earning capacity of the railroad, which would represent Its value to an Investor; (.2) the cost of constructing a duplicate of the road, which would rep-, sent Its real tangible value. State’s attorney, W. A. Ketcham, asked numerous questions concerning Mr. Ramsey’s plans for fixing railroad values. “If the Union railroad was built at a cost of $100,000, but can not now be replaced for $2,000,000, would the original’ cost ($100,000) have any effect In fixing the real present value?” asked Mr. Ketcham. “None at aft,” said the witness. “And if the road cost $2,000,000, and can be replaced for $100,000, the $2,000,000 would not indicate its value?” “The present cost of construction is the standard for fixing the tangible value of the property,” replied Mr. Ramsey.

Its Place Changed on Account of an Advertisement.

The Merchants’ Carnival by the Christian church congregation, Haughville, advertised to take place at the mineral well grounds to-morrow night, has changed to occur at the Reading Room. A real-estate dealer, who was solicited for an advertisement by the program committee, made a proposition that was not accepted, and his name does not, therefore, appear. Looking for other" ways to get his name before the expected crowd, he thought of a plan, and, going to the proprietor of the Mineral well Park, he rented the surface of the band-stand, upon which his name and business were painted. His contract. It is said, prohibits the appearance on the grounds of any advertisement of any other real-estate dealer. The church committee had other advertisements of the kind on their program, and the members have, therefore, at the last moment, changed the place of holding the carnival. It is expected that between thirty and fifty girls will represent the merchants of the suburb, and the city. Claude Thompson, humorist, will introduce the ladies to the audience. Aa Evangellat Comlag. The Rev. Rodney Smith, known as the “Gypsy evangelist,” will come to Indianapolis next month to conduct a series of revival meetings in Central-avenue M. E. church.
