They don't ecem to be naming many new nostcllices alter Ilatton of late. It begins to look again as if a war between .Kcgland and Russia were imminent. B. S. Geay, Esq , was jest er day appointed Postmaster at Portland, Ind. This is a good appointment. Tiiavrrore respectable of the Frerjch capers and people cf Paris tide with Miss Van Zandt in her recent troubles. General Jok Juiosxs will join General McCIellan in contributing war papers to tue May numbers of the Century. On: Washington special indicates that Dr. Hunter, of Ltwrsncebnrg, wiil bo the next Revenue Collector cf thh diatnet. üa i:( it finally went out in a decant, orderly ir an n er. Ha general conduct, however, was bad enough to mike even a weather bulletin blueh for it. The Interior Department Cassold 5700 worth of carriages. Secretary Lamar inclines to the opinion that this administration is strong enough to wa'k. Jo ux W. Cofhiz, who has been on trial at Crawfordaville for the murder of James McMulleu and wife, in January last, was yesterday declared guilty, with the death penalty. And cow conits the repoit that on the occasion cf ex Senator McDonald's recent visit to tha White Hoes, the President aiked him whether he woald sooner hive the Kas&ian mission or a dinner, and that he tcck the dinner. Luther Benson has jost returned from an extensive trip through Mississippi and portions cf Louisiana, lie had a lone and intemtiDg conversation with JetTerson D:tvi3 ery recently, which he promises to shape tp in a few days and publish in the Sentinel. We trust that these who are busying themselves concerning the Washington visit of Air. Echols, of this paper, will be soothed this morning by reading cur special from that city. Senator Vcorhees says tha. wen frlerds volunteered to present tha name cf Mr. Echols for appointment, that he refused to permit it, and replied that he would not accept anything. Tux sooner it is fully understood the better, that the victory in November was not merely a political revolution. It meant more ttan the restoration cf the Damocra'.ic party to power. It Want the restoration of cf National honor, the establishment of cfikial honesty through searching, sabstan tial reform, and President Cleveland intends to emphaa'zs by deeds the meaning of the popular verdict which placed him in power. The City Council should assist the Board of Health in prosecuting the work of cleaning up the streets and alleys. A large force of men can bs advanttgsouily employed to basten this work. Filth has accumulated until the gutters are choked to that stagnant water stands in pools. Fjul odors permeate the air, the stench in some localities being horrible. The need for haste on the part of the authorities is urgent, and for the weliaie of us all. Hiss Cleveland seems to bs gathering ino the White House all the ladies who have had their names linked with the President as his faccees at various period i: The New York Sun says: 'That Miss Cleveland has a generous and unselfish mind Is siowa by her Inviting a number of the young ladies and widoin to whom rumor has aesigned the President in marriage, to come and spend a week or more with her at the White House. The first tn the list cf these candidates is Mhs Van Vcchten, daughter of one o! the old blue-blooded families of Albany. She arrived last week, and, receiving last week with Miss Cleveland on Saturday afternoan, netted a most favor aW Ixnpresion upon those who mat her. Hiss Van Yechten is now talked of at the I'tcaidenl'a potslble fiancee. She is a hand

sorre ycusg woman, with fine, aristocrat! e features, and an elegance of maanar that would do well for a xnistrtss of the White Home. After Miss Yaa Yechtea are to

come Mrs. Truyn, Miss Folsom, Miss Love, j and others, who have attained a national reputation by having their names linked with Mr. Cleveland!1 TO IMPROVE THB TRLE3RAPII 323vica. The Senate last Tuesday placed itself oi record as an honest and Intelligently composdd body, when a unanimous vote W3S cast in favor of the pa-sage of Senats bill 319, recently introduced by Senator Winter. Thepurro3eof th's bill Is to compel telephone companies to place instruments la the oCSce of any and all tegraph cDmoinie i upon equal term?. And alio, requiring telgraph companies to accept from each oth&r tele grama for transmission at transfer stations npen the same terms as if filed by private individuals. H will be remembered that a suit wai recently termicated involving the B. and O. Telegraph Company, and tha Cantral Union Telephone Company of this city, the latter having refused to place in the office ot the fcrnier a telephone, except upon certain unreasonable conditions n;t required of other telagraph compinie firms or individuals. It is well known th it tbe telephene company is controlled in t'.e interest of ths.Wes'.ern Unioa Telegrapi Company, and this corperation is opposed tn sllowlng a telephone to bs placed in the of fee cf any competing line. Nor will the Western Union Telegraph Company eccept for transmission telegrams transferred to them by opposition companies, except upon such terms ai renders it impracticable for tha opposing line to accept the business cfieiel them at originating point3. Urder tbe prejent sjsiem the Western Union refuse to accept from competing lines telegrams not prepaid, and even then a premium of an average of 10 cents is charged them for denoting on the margin of the meanage the came cf the plac9 at which tha trarfer is made. This information is of no value to the sender or recipient of the mif-jage or the telegraph company acceptirg it for transmission, and is rendered only fcr the information of tha bok keepers of the telegraph company last involved in the transaction. By this unjust discrirninat on a party in Terre Haate, a point reached by tte V. U. Co , de3iriDg to telegraph to Cremen, Ind., a point reached only by the B. and O. Co., and requesting an answer hereto, is sadly disappointed, after long wsiliog, to learn that the answer can not ba obf aired except by being prepaid at Bremen, es the W. U. would refuse to accept it from the B. sxd 0. Co. at Indianapolis. Tte Brauen party being disinterested, there is no other alternativa but to use the mails. This illustration fully demonstrates the advantage that will be obtained by the bill becoming a law. Under the provisions of tbe bill, telegrams can be accepted by competing lines in all Eastern cities destined cr interior towns in Indiana, reached only by tbe Western Union Company at a rate i f fcity-five cents, paying to the Western Union at Indianapolis twenty-five cents and retaining twenty, the latter figure being the local rate by opposing lines between Eastern cititsand Indianapolis, the former amount being the rate charged by the Western Union from Indianapolis to all towns in the State of Indiana. The rates charged by the Western Uu?oa from Eastern cities to interior points in Indiaca varies from sixty to eeventj nve cants. It will be seen that by these figures competing lm?s can handle tha business at a great reduction of rates, at the eame time paying to the Western Union moro than 50 ter ctnt, of the tolls charrsd and still retain their own local rte between originating point and Indianap3'i. Tois advantage is certainly to be apprec:a!ed. Besides it furnishes to oppoiit on lice? business not otherwise cbtainabls. By the passare of the bill an impetus is gitn to competition in tha telegraph service that will stimulate it to such an extent aa to ever prevent the buying up by a m?n:pcly of all exfstirg lints oserted detri n-ual to their interests, thus affording io the emI lojes and others dependent upon competition in this direction an alternatiye for their exiaterce. The bill is directly in the interest of th9 entue community, the laboring element and tbe telegraph fraternity, and it is to be hoped when it reaches the Hocsa it will pais without a dissenting vote A bill of almost tha precise nature of this recently passed the Tenncfaee and Arkansas Legislatures unanimously. Indiana will certainly net falter iu grantiog her people the same triumphant victory. DEATH OF WILLIAM GLENN. A recent number of the Dublin Irish Times announces the death of William Glenn, Esq , a former resident cf this City. Mr. Glenn died on the 15th of March at Royal Marine Terrace, Bray. He was bur e I on the ISth at Dean'a Orange Cemetery. Mr. Glenn came to this city about the year 1S52, and ith a brother established the New York Store. The business grew ai if by magic, and the two brothers in a few years retired with fortunes. Mr. William Glenn returned to Ireland with his family and remained there until his death, as announced. During hts residence in this city he was highly esteemed by all who were fortunate enough to make his acquaintance. His business qualities were of tbe highest order, and in social a?d church circles he won the respect of all who mingled with him. Colonel Matson says that the appointment of a Collector for his Revenue District would not be made until the "agitation oyer recent appointments had disappeared," and in saying this he quotes the President. Mr. Cleveland need not worry himself over the agitation." The Republicans may bo agi tated, but the Democracy, with an occasional exception, are quite serene. The exceptions are those who naturally feel some-

hat disappointed at not getting to the haven where they would be. They will get over it in a short time. It is a complaint ti?at never kills and seldom attracts much genuine sympathy.

It seems altogether probable that Senator Harrison will oppose 0:car Henderson's ap rpcintmcnt in executive session on civil service reform grounds. The charge fgsicst Kiikpatrici, who tow holds the poii'or is that he is an "offensive partisan." He tock a very active part in the recent camra'gn, which looks as if he had Infringed 'OTuehat upon "civil service reform" idea!. Ilfwever, the republicans hive the power to break the nomination if they want todoit. The New York Times says: Tliere eeeras to be no doubt amon business men that a war between England and Ras-tlA would r. gocd thtrj? for this country. Oae indication ot t de result the war would hTe upon Americia tn.de ta Ueu Riven already 'in an order for tsiiued meata which entirely clears ont the riitble upp!y" of those proisions. Bat If war Is to i-tcur ihe penerl belief that It Is a good thin for besiness will tend to make it eo IrrepectlrelT of the grounds for that belief. That a war would at leas; increase our export of grain at tha expease of tne Russian producer seems tolerably certain. Tbe New Orleans Picayune says: It in protxwd to have a Creole Day at the Kxpfcition fur the particular benefit of straaiers, wDo are continually asking wnat Creoles are and where tbf-y can be iten. Home of tne n:ran?'iM. by nj way. are misled by the Irisn keepers of coruer ar eerie, who put up Jlns anuouncias "cr!e gps" for tale, and theu tell ttie Mmpl-s strancrfrs tst 'creole' means auything tat Is laij ia Lcuisljiia.

The annual meeting of the faculty and Hoard Trustees of the Cential College of Physicians and Surgeons was held yesterday aftfrncon.

The following cSicers were slctd: W, 3. Haymond, I)ao; J. O. 8tiIl3on, Sscretay; J. A. SutclilT, Treasaier. Dr. Charles D.

An aJjanct professorship of obstetrics and lectureship on disa?s of children was created and tendered toDr Edward J. Dreanaa, Prs'dant of the City Board of Health. V. A. Fcstt-r, a prominent attorney of the city, was given a lectureship on medical jurisprudence. Cbailea N. ItDcker, tbe present Deputy Coioner, was app:inted prosector to the ct eir of anatomy. The institution teems to favor progression in medical education, and has opened its dtors to women, and hereafter will admit them upon the aarn terms as men. There will be a special, well ventilated dis action room, to be used exclusively by the lady students. This will surmount an objectionable feature that has heretofore been advanced 3 an argument why ladiesand gentlemen should not attend the same institution. This, will probnbly receive the hearty co-operation of the medical profession. The faculty coneists of w. s. Ilaymond, M. D., Dean, professor of the principle and practice of wirgtry. Jobu Mofiett.

THAT EXPRESS PACKAGE,

YFMch Contained $3,S00, and Tras Finally Returned, Stirs Up a Damage Bolt for $10,000 A Spencer House Scene, which Broke Up in Bad Blood. Interest in the disapprarance and recovery of the money package intrusted to the Adams Express Company in the latter part of December, and which was revived a few days sgo by the discharge of a number of tbe company's employes, ia once more revived by the filing of a damage suit by John W. O'Harrow against the Adams Company, in which he charges false imprisonment and demands $10,000 as a recompense for the bodily aud mental an gulsb, humiliation and shame which he suffered in cjnstquence thereof. The complaint states that oa the 30th day of December, 18S1, tbe defendant ciusei h's arrest without warrant or authority of law and 'alsely imprisoned and detained him against his will. This is understood to have reference to the time wben O'Harrow was ander surveillance at the Denison, a prisouer in fact, in charce of Larry Hszen, the Cincinnati detcctiyja who was called into tha ca-e. A second psraraph in the complaint a'.-lt-,es tfcat in January the defendant cinvi Iba arrest cf tha pluiritiü or) a warra t ttarzu'g hi:u with r3ud isresny : tnt be was laken to the St&ti'jn-hou? ku tbera iiiiprisoLtd; tl:at tts arrest vas withaat Cnute. and tht Ihfl proceediu.-'i were üj;i ly d:sniisitd without tria!. A bentuiel repieientativa called noon Superiutndent Henderson yes'erday bf.ernoon and informed him of the filing of the suit, asking if he had any statement to make iu connection therewitn. He replied that he not surtrisfd that suit for dacnü?es bad been fiied, indeed1 he had been expecting such au event. He declared that he hd no etatement to make whatever ia the premises, and said tnat all the fcts connected with the mysterious affair w uld be brought out in tbe trial of the cause. He further siated that no ajreenient had beea Uißde with O'Harrow when he was reinstated iu the employ of the company. Wben told by the reporter t bat the public rezard?d as ery straiige indeed tue statemant atiributed to hint that tie ' knew who took tie f.it00 packeg and who :eturned it to t!i9 ?afe," while at the eama tiise the party was allowed to have bis liberty, andotherornployes wera thus l't under a cloud of sus-t-icion, Mr. Henderson said that tha meaning of bis rprnarss wns misinterpreted, aad tbe jeporter iLfemd that ha was morally mtisfitü as to th-s guilty party, but was or-rdiy in poseeition of sallicieut facts to warrant an arrest Wbetcer the oificiais of the Adams Expre-3 Company have any positive informttioi Aith reference to the disappearance and restoration vt the package is in the minds of many who are familiar with the traac t!oLs in connection iih me tame, a highly probleujatical iaea:io:, and in this connection a stury is related which would iudicata that t'iey n)e aa much at eea iu tbe matter as the general public. Just prior to the wholesale discharge of the employes, Sam Yeaile, oae of tbe men on duty at the depot cilice, tvas taken to the Spenser House by a Pintertou detective, and there, in the pre.-ence of Mr. Henderson, ss alleged, was accused of haviDg stolen and afterwards replaced the packtge. Yeail6 denounced tbe accusation as an inamcus lie. "You stole the package and we can produce the witnees?s in tive minutes," said the detective. You are au inf&mons liar, and you know it," responded Veaile. "Ve have th witnesses at haad,'' waa the rejoinder, and Vealle, after demacdiijK that they be produced, swore that be would drive the accusation down the threats cf his tormentors if they would give him fair play and come at him but one at a time. Wben this proposition was not accepted, Veaile swore that the express company had no evidence against him; that they wanted him to accuse himself, and that he could whip the man who would insinuate tnat he was guilty of the t tccit. Alter tome hours ot controversy which failed in getting a confession from V ai.'e, tbe Spencer House party broke up in aLj thing but a piea'ant mood. When Mr. Henderson's attention wa3 calJed to this story he acknowledged that he w8s at the Spencer House on the occasion referred to, but denied that he was in the room v;het. Veaile was accused by the detective of having ttolen the pacEege. Wheuakedif the circuit s auces of the interview wre rot reported to him by the detective, te declined to make aay funher statements regarding the Spencer Heute meeting Ref-rriDg to tbe proposition n,ade to Canada bv a policeman that if Car ada would accuse Vealle of being respou8ible for the disappearance of the package then be (Canada) would be retained in his position, Mr. Hendenoa said that the company bad employed no policeman whatever, and if euch a proposition was made to Canada the company knew Dothing about it. He said tbat the matter had been given intD the hands of tbe Pmkerton agency, and that the police cf this city were at no time cocsalteJ. l0URT-HOUE LOCALS.

McCray vs. William McCray came up before Judge Wal er yesterday morning fjr disposition, Tbe cr.rrplant was filed sometime since, and alleged c-nel treatment for caute of sction. riaintiffis the daughter of Conrad Schneider, of Maywood. and although she was warmly atfached to McCray, the parents rejected to his suit and refused him permission to see their daughter. The result was ibesme :h iu all such cases, and the old folks were conelderably surprised and not at all pleased to learn ehortly after that tne twain had been married. They theu arranged to etlect a separation, and to do tMs they kept their daughter at bcro und refused to allov McCay to see fcer. They finally euiemployed an attorney to sue for a d'vorce lor their daughter. A couple of ays since Jutre W&Iker received a letter fr'.m tbe plaintiff. ShtatatM the above and paid lr parents made her sUn the adidivit to the complaint: tbat the charge of cruelty was not tme; that she loved her husband dearly, ar.d wanted to jo to him and ltva with him, but her parents would not permit her to do so; thatslie did not rnt tue case tried as her parents would make her go upon the stand and swear to tbe statements again, and that, as they were false, aud as the and her husband wre not wanting a divorce, she begged tbe Jude to help her oat of the trouble. Her letter bad the desist effect, and when the case was called Jo1?e Walker had Sconeider and wife and McCray and hia wife take seats near him. He them prcduced tbe letter and reid it ia conrt. after whch he delivered a lecture on the subject. He was very severe in his coudemnation cf the course of Mrs. McOray'a pa-ent, and gave tuem to understand tiiat the courts wer not machines to ass'st in such ca ei a9 this; Iba, unless thy svppi tbeir course of conduct toward their daturater they would yet succeed in cauiing her t corcn-it suicide, and perhaps causa the deitd of both the young people. He recommended to tbtra to permit tbe young folks to hava tl eir way, saying that rovr that they are ma: lied tSe authority of the paieit 07er tha chPd cea?es. No evidence wa3 tskeu in the case, and the Court refused to entertain the application for divorce, because there was no ground for it, ar?d because neither of the parties to tbe suit desire It to be erantei. At tbe commencement of the case Mrs. Schneider btcame to enraged at McCray that she rote from her eeat and made violent demonstrations with her hands at him and in order to preserve order Judee Walker was compelled to direct the taliff to take her into custody. This was done and she was removed eome distance from McCray. When the matter was dismissed McCray and his wife left the room togather, but as soon as they got down stairs the young brids was forcibly tacen from his side by her disgusted and angry parents, tbe mother leadlDg her away and her father aud McCray remaining in tLe Court house. What the end is to ba can not jet be eettled, but if McCray 13 half ns brave and courageous as his wife is loyal be will have her iu a few short hours aad W'll bid defiance to those who would separat them. As Judge Walker left tLe court room a young man joined him and i -id tbat be n&d been a witness to the srt;ig-' K-ene in the court, and that he was fbe victim of a similar condition of circumstances, his wife having been competed by ber parents to file a suit for divorce agaiast him against ber wishes.

Chief Train Dispatcher Woolsey, of ths Vandalia, fays be would like to see that road cut loose from the St. Louis pool, ai it would result in au immense boom in business.

The Court ot Claims, Which Goes Far Towards Simplifying Legislation, and en Interview. Tie bill introduce! into the General Assefiibly by Senator L. M. Campbell, of Hendricks, to create a Court of Claims, becoming a law, constitutes aa acknowledged refcrrn. Aa Chairman of the Committee on Claims, Senator Morgan Weir, early in the eeftiou, rec?gtizicg tho delicacy and exper.ee of this class of legislation, aiked and was granted permission to make a record of all claims agaiDst the State. To sit in jndgmeot oa rxa'.ters involving money and labor is the most difhcult work tnat comes before a Leidiatue, and eouiwthing, it seema, far eut of the line of its chief duties. The time spent in determining that Mrs. Edwin May was entitled to the sum of 510.OM) for two Feseiona of th General Assemblr ccst the ttate far more than the debt. It was tbis ca-e tbat e-uggested to Sanator Campbell tbe propriety of the bill author izing the creation cf a court for the causideiaMon of such buinesa. Mrs. May's health pave completely away, and the was stricken with fever some days before the allowance of her claim. For more than a week pbys'cians and friends regarded l er recovery as doubtful. But she ia now, tapplly, convalescent, and contemplates Itaving her room for the first time early next week. To a Sentinel rerorter yesterday, she expreeeed the warmest gratitude for the treat ment she had received by the Indianapolis press, and Recounted for it on the grounds that the case having excited large public attention, reporters inquired into its merits. "ihe case," she continued, ' became some thing more than a mere question of money to me, ana l would Pave regarded a failure. as the great maea of people certainly would have regarded it, as somewhat impeaching my Loneety. To have my motives impeached by members who would not examine tbe case, 1 felt to bs a cruelty, almost impossible to bear." When informed that a Court of Claims had bten created 6he expressed great satisfaction at.d pave th.a as her experience with Senator Campbell, which applies to wany leaiiog members in both branches of the General Aesembly as well: "Wben I first spoke to Mr. Campbell he locked very serious, heard me pitieutly, givirgnosigns of sympathy, and but for his promise to make a careful inquiry there was noting in his demeanor to give me hope. Several days later he informed me that he had examined tha case and that his opinion was formed, without disclosing anything as to tbe nature of the opinion." At her first interview with Senator Fred Winter she read in hia countenance a positive objection to the claim, but he promised to make inquiry. The members, as a c'as accustomed to handling evidence and weighing testimony, gave her no trouble. Mrs. May heartily joined in the general delight at tbe advancement of Rufus Magee, and a knowledge that Mr. Willard would not be dirarpointed by President Cleveland's administration would make her happtoes corop'ete. ' From first to last." she concluded, 4'Mr. Willard and bia wife ere my frieLds, end from the highest posaune motive." Howard Briggs, editor ot tha Green castle Prws, was in tbe city yesterday. Elwcod Avery, Clexk cf the Clinton Circuit Court, left the city for home last even ing. Dr. Charles Diven, of Anderson, was in tbe city yesterday.
