Indianapolis Socialists Publicly Sbonr Tlieir Hatred of Bismarck. At Indianapolis, Monday night, at the close of a German theatrical performance at English’s Opera House, in honor of Bismarck’s birthday, a “living picture” representing Bismarck reading Emperor William's proclamation, at tiio palace of Versailles, which brought all of tho German States under his imperial government, was presented. The manager requested every German present to rise and join in the national hymn, “Die Wacht am Rhein,” while tlie "picture” was on the stage. As tliecurtain rolled up and the, living picture came into view, instead of complying with tlie request of tlie management, more than 2(X) socialist Germans, witli their families and friends, arose and—left tlie house. Thus they manifested their disapprobation.
