TDK EVIDEXCK AT TUB PRELIMINARY EXAMI NATION CONFLICTING TESTIMONY AN IX-TERE-rrixa stout told bv the witxksses THE ACCUSED RELEASED. At 11 o'clock Saturday night, after the preliminary examination and the argumenta In the Patrick Dever case wero finished at Rushville, the justice released the prisoner. Tbe evidence Riven in the preliminary examination makes an interesting story at least. It is also of such a conflicting nature that the affair is enveloped in more mystery. The examination began at 10 o'clock that morning before Thomas Poc, justice of the peace, in the Civil Circuit Court room at Rushville. Mr. Frank M. Smith, a citizen of Rush county, swore out the atHdavit charging the father, Patrick Dever, with murder in the first degree, on which the warrant was issued for the arrest, which took place Friday morning. During the coroner's inquest, and throughout tbe examination the prisoner maintained that stolid appearance that was exasperating at least. During the examination he sat with bis head hung down the entire day, with tbe exception of once or twice when be raised his lace to answer questions put to hira by Iii lawyers, Messrs. Ben I. Smith and Geo. B. Sleeth. lie has a mean face, lie has h low forehead over his cold grey eyes, and with his face roughened by dissipation presents a very forbidding appearance. He is about fifty years old. The first witness called was Coroner J. II. Spurier. His evidence was of a strong circumstantial character AGAINST THE PRISONER. He testified that the girl was shot back of and below the right eye to the depth of four inches, the balls inclining upward from a quarter to a half an inch. The witness was asked plainly if he thought that she could have been shot as is claimed by the defense, and answered that she could not. lie further" testified that Dever did not show any signs of grief during the inquest, but remained In a small side-room during the sitting of the jury. The next witness was an important one, in the person of John Dever, aged twenty years, the son of the Erisoner. lie said that his father came ome that evening (Tuesday) from Connersville at 6 o'clock. lie was not drunk, although he might have been drinking while in Connersville. At the supper table he did not show any sisns of being angry. Mary, tbe daughter who was killed, worked in Connersville, and had come home the same eveniDg. It may be here said that it was not learned In the examination whether tbe father and daughter came home on the same train or not. He testified that there had been no quarrel, but the evening had been spent pleasantly by all. O'Keefe and himself went into town (Vienna) after supper and returned home about 9 o'clock. When they got home they found Dever re nairiuz his IVORY REVOLVER with a screw driver. lie was standing up bythasldsof the table on the opposite side from which Mary was sitting. The mother was off by the side of the stove, Winnie, the younger sister, was near mother, and O'Keefe took a seat about four feet from Mary, while tbe witness stood about two feet behind O'Keefe. No one spoke as the witness and O'Keefe came in. About five minutes afterward the accused said to the witness, "You've spoiled this pistol coon hunting, and it ain't worth a d any mure;" and at that threw it down on the floor violently. It exploded as it struck, and at the same time the light went out in the lamp. Winnie, O'Keefe and the prisoner started for the door. Tbe witness asked "Mother, are you hurt?" She answered that she was not, and came to tbe door, where she struck a match. As she did this tbe father said, "Is any one hurt?" By the light of tbe match, and just as the mother asked, "Where is Mary?" the witness saw her lying on her -side on tbe floor, with blood around her 1 ad. He went to her and lifted up her head, rfhen be discovered that she was dead. Thy did not bear her fall or make any noise whatever. The witness picked np the revolver, and, in company with O'Keefe, carried it out of doors, where he threw it to one side. He and O'Keefe went for the neighbors, and when tbey came home the father appeared nearly crazy. At three morning tbe father ville to bny a O'Keefa, the young present at the time and o'clock next went to Rushcoffin. John man who was who boarded with the family, was tbe next witness. In regard to the shooting be corroborated the former witness exactly. In throwing the revolver, lie said tha old man swung it over his shoal--der, and that he plainly saw him do it. He .never heard tbe father quarrel with Mary. Winnie Dever, the 14 year old daughter of the old man. was next called, and told ach a straight story in a convincing way that it had a visible eflact on the large crowd in attendaaoe on the examination. She said that her lather took the pistol out of a drawer alter aijer, and with the remark that it was St. Mart in V night, went to the door and fired oil one charge. He snapped everal caps afterwards, bnt it would sot go off, and then came ack into the room to get ome fresh cap He tried to shoot it agaic, but it wculd not explode. He then cald, "John has spoilt it coon hunting, and I've sot to get tt repaired." The mother then put it in the irawer at his request. He afterward got th'i serew-driver and commenced llxing it. She SAW TH PISTOL THROWN also. Samuel Vienna, was Ochiltree, the operator at the next witness. He testified that he was passing tbe house in company with Mr. Jese Clauson and heard loud talking. He asserted that he heard the father arjgrilv telling Mary not to go down to the telegraph office as himself and CI an son were men of bad character and would ruin her. The exact language is too vulgar for publication. Cianson corroborated the statement of the above witness. Tbey weot on alter hearing these eke remarks about themselves and in five mluutes afterward heard the report oi a pistol. Tbey went back to the house atd found the old man walking tbe floor.

BRITISH FORESIGHT.

Aif ENGLISH IRON MASTER. MR. I. LOWTHIAI BELL OJf A TOUR vtr i.arn.oTTOX TFTR OBJECT OP HIS VISIT HE GETS A GLIMPSE OP INDIANAPOLIS VIEWS ON THE IRON BUSINESS HIS OPINIONS SOT MATURED. , ; In both England and America, the name of Mr. L, Lowthian Bell stands high among the intelligent and wealthy iron masters of the former country. lie is the man who was called before a special commission to be examined in regard to the condition of the mining and smelting interests of England, which was called to investigate the assertion that the coals of the country were in danger of exhaustion, and also the cause of high prices of coals. His statements attracted general attention, and were widely quoted on this side tbe water. Mr. Bell, with his son, Mr. Charles Lowthian "Bell, . has been in the Unlttd States some months, and will remain for several weeks longer, until he has visited all the leading iron and mining works of this country. Through the special and urgent invitation of Prof. E. T. Cox, Mr. Bell has made a brief visit to the State of Indiana, and given oneday (yesterday) to looking at souie objects of interest in this city. Want of time to tpare rendered it impossible for him to go out to the coal fields to make a personal inspection of the mines and furnaces, but he has of course had full opportunities of examining Indiana coals of all the various characters, and will test them more fully when he goes to St. Louis.where these coals are largely used in the reduction of the Iron Mountain ore. A reporter of the Sentinel, who called upon Mr. Bell waa received with much cordiality, and the conversation of tbe gentleman was full of wise suggestion and instruction. Without attempting to reproduce language of an informal Interview, some of the points in relation to his visit here, and some of his views will be of interest. He was not pre, nared to offer anv odnions for publication as these will be given in a formal report after ha vi Dir returned to England with the data gathered, he has carefully digested all the facts. Then be will make a report which will be studied with deep interest by both countries and no doubt te widely published. He said that he was not now at tempting to reach any conclusions even lor nimseir, Dut was very HARD AT WORK collecting facts and information which it would be necessary to collect aud compare in the quiet of his private office. Mr. Bell frankly admitted that the object of his investigations in this country is to determine, so far as he can, tbe effect which American iron manufacture is likelv to have on tbe British iron trade abroad. You Americans, said he. have already turned your backs upon us, and now we are desirous to know how far vou are likely to be able to make other people do the same thing. From this point be entered into a discussion of much interest and considerable length. Being asked the truth concerning tbe rumored de cline of tbe English iron manufacture and the apprehended exhaustion of coals, he stated that no hopes of America's advan tage need be built on that. There had been an alarming advance in the cost of coal. That it was important, he said, might be inferred from tbe fact that tbe dit ferenca increased the expenses of the com pany to which he belonged ? 1,000,000 per an num. But the cost of coal was due to other rouses than scarcity or an expected failure of tbe supply. Of tbe two countries he said that England has many advantages over the United States. You can not put. your finger down, said be. on any spot in ureal Britain which is more than luO miles from the seacoast. From his works iron could be put on board a ship which wo a Id carry it to China at a cost not to exceed seven or eight cents per ton. The elements of your greatness, are In some respects elements of weakness. I his is a country of magnificent distance?, and these long transportations areuufriendly to the produc tion of iron for exportation. Again, if you had here the capital to engage in this busi ness, where would 3Tou get tbe labor? You rr.ust have men, and it would be difficult to obtain them. You are now troubled with strikes by the few laborers you have. The question turns largely upon labor. That country which, by its natural facilities for producing manuiactureu iron, whicn can pay the best prices for labor and still under sell the other, would, of course, bo able to command the labor in the end. But there are many elements which enter into this complicated problem of iron manufacture for commerce. Qualities of coals and ores were only one thing. There are the market, the meaus of transportation, the cost of labor, skill in the business, stability of conditions and the like, which must all be carefully figured out. INDIANA HAS EXCELLENT COALS. Mr. Bell did not hesitate to express his admiration of the mineral resources of the state. As to the best point for establishing manuiactures oi iron ne was not decided. Sometimes it is best to take the ores to the coal fields, sometimes vice versa, and in some instances, perhaps, to bring them together at an intermediate locality, it was evident that so far as he had an opinion regarding this state, it inclined to favor tbe establishment of works upon the coal fields. In reply to a question if he had In view a possiDie removal or recommendation ot capital to this country, he said he had no such designs for himself ; he was too far advanced in years; still he might possibly do something on behalf of others. Tbe reporter inferred that his eon was in his mind. Mr. Bell expressed very warmly his appreciation of tbe kindness and attention shown him in this country. Said he, I shall never be able to repay one-half the kindness I have experienced in the United States, and be repeated the sentiment more than once. He was sincerely pleased with the city of Indianapolis, and notwithstanding tbe contrast in tbe ways of doing things in the old country and here, he believed our ways were undoubtedly the best for us. He spoke with interest of our manufactories, especially the planing works, and also the pork packing establishments, the largest of which he has been through. Mr. Bell paid the highest compliments poesible to Prof. Cox, as being a man who is thoroughly posted on the mineral interests of the täte, an enthusiastic worker not for himself, but for tbe State of Indiana. The commonly received descriptions of John Bull do not apply to this great business Englishman. Hs is more like the wide awake American. About CO years of age, his head is bald and whiskers gray, but be is not lat nor slow. On the contrary, he is in manner exceedingly quick, nervous and energetic Neither has he the grandeur and reserve of nobility, but is affable and communicative, modest and polite. He is a visitor worthy the best hospitalities which the western wilderness can offer. . INDIANA MANUFACTURES. THE MANUFACTURING RESOURCES OP THE STATE THE CAPITAL INVESTED AND THE ARTICLES MANUFACTURED A SKETCH OF THE LEADING INDUSTRIES IN THE CITIES OP THE STATE. Mr. James M. Swank, the secretary of the American Iron and Steel Association, has contributed many able articles to the Chicago Bulletin on the subject of Western manufactures as an ultimate solution of the transportation question. The following extract from a recent article gives a good exhibit of tbe manufactures of this state, as exhibited in the industries of our principal cities: During the past summer we have been strongly impressed with the value of home j manufactures to the Western farmer by bay-1

lng our attention directed to the vast number ot mar.afacturing enterprises which have recently been established in the Western states The manactur:s of the Eastern ad Middle states have heretofore supplied

the Western farmer with the principal mar ket for his products, without which ne would yet be compelled to travel upon corduroy roads and to long for the comin r. of the covered wapon' of some friendly amigrant who would help , to. share the irneliness of his prairie life; but recently the West itself has commenced to consume tbe sur plus crops of his farm, for the West has now manufactures of its own. and manufactures always create a demand for agricultural products. Western enterprise has always been - equal to every emergency, and when it was found that manufactures were necessary to the prosperity of the West, they were established in great variety and upon solid foundations. W estern orairies could produce tbe best of wool; why should not the West build woolen factories to make its own woolen cloths? Western streams furnished abundant water power and its forests tbe finest of timber; why should not the West produce its own lum ber and offer to supply the world with all kinds of wooden implements and utensils? Underneath tbe soils of Western farms and imbedded in Western bills lay immense de posits of iron ore and coal; why should nnt the West make its own iron and light the fires of myriad steam engines? It has done all this and more, and to-day us manufacturing industries vie with those of the East in the extent of their equipments, the vigor of their management, and the variety of their products. Missouri no longer depends upon Pennsj lvania for its Iron, but it sends iron to reLnsyivania; Illinois no longer depends upon .Connecticut clocks for a record ot passing time, for its own Elgin watches tell the hour with unfailing exactness in many Connecticut homes and In most New England towns.' The great West was always worthy of the name it bears, but now it is doubly worthy ot its proud title, for it has manufactures as well as agriculturethe skilled workman besides the tolling granger. Of the western prairie states there are threj that have made marvelous progress in manufactures since the taking of the census of 1870. These are INDIANA, ILLINOIS AND MICHIGAN. Four others have shown a fair appreciation of the value of manufactures, and have given encouragement to their establishment. These are Iowa, Missouri, Wisconsin and Kansas. Of all the Western states, Minne sota may be regarded as the only one wnich yet adheres to wheat growing for distant markets as the chief source ot its prosperity, although at Minneapolis are made the finest blankets in the world from Minnesota wool. This year Minnesota wheat will bring on the farm but little more than 50 cents a bushel. Minnesota farmers would be better off if they would grow and manufacture more wool, and if thev would make at least their own farm implements, which they now do. It will be interestinz and instructive to note some of the features of the manufac turing development of those Western states which have encouraged manufacturing enterprise. In traveling west, Indiana is tbe first state we enter after leaving the great middle states. At Indianapolis, the capital and chief city, we discover a degree of manufacturing activity which is astonishing. The nroximitv of the ereat block coal fields of Indiana, which are estimated to be as exten sive as tbe whole coal area of Great Britain, gives this city a supply of cheap and excel lent fuel, and the vast railroad system, of which it is the center, affords it an outlet in every direction for whatever goods It may see Dröper to make. Tbe population of the city is about 100,000, and ot this number 10,000 are skilled workmen employed in its various factories and work shops. Iron is leading article of manufacture. In 1873 there were produced $3.800,000 worth of miscellaneous iron products, employing 1,500 men. and reouirinz 82.200.000 of caDital. The city Is also great lumber market, while cooper's stock, sashes and blinds, agricultural Imple ments. wagons and carriages, sewing ma chines, furniture, railroad cars and other timber products are largely produced. There are also many other prosperous industries, the yearly product of starch being 51,000,000; or clothing, $700,000; Of oils, ?."50,000; of cottons. S300.000: of woolens. SG50.000. The city has an extensive grain and pork trade, but it is as a manufacturing center that it has mainly attained its PROMINENCE AMONG WESTERN CITIES. Terre Haute is another city of Indiana which has given prominent attention to manufac tures. The "Terre Haute Association for the Promotion of Manufactures" is com posed of leading citizens who see in manufactures a basis of enduring prosperity. As a result of the spirit of liberality to which this association gives partial expression, the city is growing rapidly, and now contains a population of 23,000. Its facilities for the manufacture ot iron are superior, and have not been neglected Terre Haute pig and bar iron, nails, steam engines, mill and mine machinery, railroad castings and railroad cars having a reputa tion for excellence that is coextensive with the country. At Evansville, New Albany, and other points the iron industry has also Deen hrniiy established. At New Albany there is also manufactured npon an extensive scale the finest quality of plate glass, equal to tbe best that is imported. At Elkhart there are various mechanical industries, prominent among which is the manufacture of paper, starcb, and furniture. Import is a city of 10,000 inhabitants, in Northern Indiana, which possesses a great variety oi manufactures. There is a chair factory here which produces annually over f 100,000 worth of chairs; two woolen mills which produce annually about $300,000 worth of flannels, blankets, Cassini er es, jeans aud yarns; a file factory, a large broom factory, a bedstead factory, an extensive car factory, and various establishments for the manuiacture of wagons, carriages, agricultural implements and mill machinery. South Bend wagons are a popular specialty of the thriving city of that name. So are agricultural implements at Richmond. Fort Wayne is an Indiana city of 25 000 inhabitants, which derives much of its importance from its railroad connectious,but it is abo a manufacturing city of no mean pretentions. As many as 1,2 K) passenger and freight cars have been built here in a year, and there is a car-wheel fac'vOry here which has a capacity of 250 wheels a day. Car wheels made in Fort Wayne are running to-day from the Gulf to St. Paul, and from the Atlantic ocean to the Pacific, Wagons and carriages, steam engines and boilers, mill and other heavey machinery, lumber and woodsnware, furniture, saws, and woolen goods are made here. About 75,000 pounds ot wool are made annually into cloths, cassimeres, satinets, tweeds, flatnels, blankets, etc. At Valparaiso is a manu factory of pins, employing a capital ot $150,000; a ehoddy mill, a carriage factory, pUning mills and sash factories, etc. At Lafayette, a city pf 18,0 W inhabitants, 50,000 cases of boots and shoes are annually manufactured, and one firm alone makes 100,000 iron-bound barrels annually. There are other towns and cities in the state which are largely devoted to manu futures. It may safely be predicted that Indiana will soon rival Massachusetts itself in the extent and variety of its industrial product?. A long and fierce quarrel about a Methodist church known as ' tbe Salem Church, near Inwood, has been terminated by some of the zealous partisans, who burned it to ashes last Saturday night.

STATE NEWS.

REFLEX OF THE INDIANA PRESS. CASS COUNTT. The Logansport Star is a wonderfully wise paper. It has discovered that it was tee policy of Dan Voorhees that carried the State for the democracy; the belief of the people that more money, and that alone, would give them plenty of prosperity. The Pharos says Logansport will be meas urably exempt from distress this winter among the poor class, and that they have ample means to relieve the wants ot sufferers. CLAT COUNTT. Says tbe Brazil Echo: Octobrr is the ban ner month in coal shipments. The following is the number ot cars of coal shipped from this district in 26 days of last month, proving to exceed any period for the same length of time since tbe field was opened. If there is no cessation in work this month by the miners, we doubt not it will reach 5,000 cars, an amount which it was predicted we would not reach for two or three years from this time. This is encouraging; and we trust nothing will intervene to stop its onward flow. This is the amount : Pig iron ..... . 42 cars. An attempt to burn the building over Woodruff & Fletcher's shaft at Hoosierville was made Snnday night. The fiends threw oil over the building and then set it on fire, but it was fortunately discovered before the flames had done material damage. DE KALB COUNTT. O. T. Clark has been appointed postmaster at Waterloo. The former postmaster. Mr. Hague, is now the county auditor. DELAWARE COUNTY. At the funeral of the Rev. Robert Irwin, in Muacie, a brief biography was read which bad been prepared by himself. It contained many reminiscences of the early history of the county. Miss Julia Sparr appears as secretary of a teachers' Institute in the Muncie Times. The Sentinel supposed her to be in India, working for the Woman's Missionary Society. How is this? DUBOIS, COUNTY. Tuesday last week was a bad day for the Edmon&tons. Col. B. B. Edmonston was thrown from his buggy, had an arm broken and was otherwise severely injured On tbe same. day Mrs. Udmonston was drawing a bucket of waier from a well with a windlass, when the handle slipped from her hand, and turning back struck her in tbe side, injuring ber so as to confine her to bed ELKHART COUNTY. Bonfires are the order of the day in cele brating the election. Monday night tbe heavens were illuminated at Elkhart, and Goshen, not content with two fires lately, now calls on the public to build a pyramid of wood in tbe streets lor an Illumination The Democrat says there is to be a jollifica tion, but forgets to name the date. Mr. Freeman Kelley stopped at Goshen, the other night, and dropped in to Hascall's Hall to hear some sort of a lecture. The Times made an attack upon him, charging him with the society of lewd women. It happened that two waiting girls of the Jo lian house, wh-ire he stopped, were at the hall, and All went home in sort of promiscuous crowd together. The insinuation against the character of the gins by tbe Times to enraged them that they determined to avenge themselves: The name ot the Times editor is Wm. Starr. The Goshen Democrat elves this lively account of the battle: On entering one of the ladies said, "Is your name Starr?" "Yes, madam; be seated," replied the affable editor. "Well, you are tbe man that slandered mo, and have come to cowhide you," and with that Mattie Porter drew one of her whips and like a stroke of lightning it came down on tbe head and shoulders of Bill Starr. As soon as ne coma recover irora his surprise and the violence oi ine attacic he struggled through the raining blows to bis feet, and grabbing the descending whip wrenched it out of her hands. Then as ouickasa flash tbe other was drawn, and followed like Paddy's drum over the lace and eves. It is said that the editor howled so loud ps to rouse all the family of Starrs from the adjoining room, where they reside, and at this critical moment they poured in a re-enforcement upon tbe attacking party truly formidable. Tom Starr advanced to the support of his brother Bill, his wife took up a position on me rignt nana:, a vuitor to the rear, and the aevu aodged under the table. The brave girl fell back in order before this overpowering force, and reaching into her cartridge box, loaded ber hand with eggs and poured into the advancing forces a terrific fusiladeof un hatched chickens. One struck Tom square between the eyes, closing both blinkers, and covering his face and bosom with exploded ammunition. A raking shell was fired at Tom'B lady on the right flank, and bursted on the tip of her nose, the fragments wounding the visitor in the rear in a shocking manner. It said that Bill Starr, with his hands covering his head where the blows bad just fallen, and his mouth wide open with .pain and fright, received one square inside of his distended jaws, so clean and so forcibly as to swallow shell ana an. FLOYD COUNTY. A desperado, named Jennings, in New Albany, stabbed John Sillings without apparent provocation. The wound was at first thought to be fatal, but the last report was that the symptoms were more favorable. Jenninga was allowed to escape. Says the Standard: Thirteen car loads of hogs came in over the line of the L., N. A. fc C. R, W. this morning, from Crawfordsvllle. A terrible marine disaster happened Thursday at New Albany. The new ferryboat going over to Portland sunk in four feet of water. No lives lost. FOUNTAIN COUNTY. Culprits break their way right out of tbe cosily new jail at Covington. Two of them this week pried the gratings out of one o the corridor windows in the second story, or twisted them off, and then let themselves down to terra firm a and liberty by strips of a blanket they bad torn up. An attempt was made to stop Dr. Rice at the Attica toll bridge and rob him. But his mare sprang away and carried him out of the footpad's reach. A school house six miles east of Attica, was a 1 a.

THE EFFECTS OF DOSING. Many persons who are wanting in natural vigor endeavor to upply the deficiency by constantly dosing themselves with drugs, (often of a very pernicioni natnre). which they are credulous enough to mistake for lnvlgorants. There can be no doubt that many lives are shortened in this way. All that such pen-ons require is a pure vegetable tonic which, like Hostetter's Stomach Hitters, also possesses tbe regulatini Sroptrties neewwary to rectify those organic istutuanoes which are but tn result X weakness. The feeble and the nervous can not be too earnestly advised to abandon the dangerous practice of swallowing mineral tonics, seda

THE'NEW

WALT HAM. The past twelve months at the Waltham Watch Factory have been the busiest In the Company's history. Several wholly new stemwinding watches have been produced, and great improvements have been effected in tbe manu facture of all variety of their standard watches. until now they include every size in both key and stem-winding that can be desired, of every quality and of every price. At the same time new inventions in machinery, and other large economies, have cheapened the cost, so that at present It is not too much to claim that the Waltham Watches are the best and cheapest watches in the world. These claims are An fact. almost everywhere admitted. In this country. it is a matter of fact that hardly any fine Amer ican watches are sold but those of the Waltham make, while orders are now regularly received from England, Australia, and the British Possessions generally, and foreign countries are abandoning the hand-made productions of Switzerland and England and eagerly adopting American machine-made Waltham Watches in their place. Buyers of silver watches should be careful to observe the stamp of the Company on the case. as well as on the movement, as the Waltham Watch movements are frequently put Into cases which are inferior both in quality of metal and workmanship. For sala by all leading Jewelers. Positively no Watches Sold at Befall. ROBblNS A APPLETON, General Age Ma, New York, Boston, Chicago," and London, Englaad.
