County Investigation Matters.

Shelbyville, April 21—The motions to quash the indictments against J. Marsh Wilson, George M. Ray, Julius Chueden and Herman Chueden were argued in court to-day. The court overruled the motions and ordered the cases set for trial the second week of tbe June term of court. Much credit should be given to Alonzo Blair, the prosecuting attorney, for the able manner in which he has handled th0.,0 cases; every effort has been put forth by those interested in having the indictments quashed to accomplish that end, but Mr. Blair has b«en equal to the occasion and will certainly see that no effort is spared to bring tbe wrong-deers to justice.

There is a movement on foot among the republicans of northern Indiana, led by one of the most influential rtpubiicans of the state, to request Governor Mount to make an investigation of the state treasurer’s office. This oocdition of affairs was brought about by the recent circular of the treasurer of state which was sent out to the county treasurers asking for a partial settlement for the reason that tbe state is Iwnkrupt. The last statement of the treasurer of state showed a balance on hand available for state purposes of $650,000, and Ihese republicans are wanting to know what has become of it.—lndianapolis Sentinel.
