FILING OF PETITIONS To Knock Out Saloons at Muncie ReSults in Fistic Clash. Muncie, Ind., August 30. —One fistic clash to-day resulted from the filing of a remonstrance containing sufficient names in an attempt to knock out Muncie’s 26 saloons. Carney Bartlett, a saloonkeeper, hit George Shaw, a prominent dry worker, and was taken into custody on a warrant charging attack. Muncie was dry a little more than two years ago. Saloons were returned to the Second Ward last spring. This seems to have had no effect on the blind tigers, as during the month of July there were 25 arrests of persons chargd with the sale at unlicensed places. The county commissioners meet next week to consider 36 applications for saloon licenses and at that time will pass on the validity of the remonstrance.
