SANTIAGO AND PORTO RICO The Probable Point- of I m mediate Attack. Washington, I. C, May 31. Army news is kept closely guarded, but the general trend of events indicates that a movement by the army and navy will be made on Santiago and I'orto Kieo very soon, perhaps simultaneously. There is very little doubt that these points will be at. tacked before an attack is made on Havana. Santiago is properly located and will be made the capital of tie
Cuban government, as the province is
n airily held by them now.
The cabinet gave no indication of its discussion today, but the best information obtainable strongly indicates
that the military movement will be directed against Santiago, the army co-operating with Schley. The Hawaiian Question. Washington, I). C, May 31. Senator..

The Presence of One Murder Case In
the County and the Prospect of
Another Arousee Interest.
The interest in the Thrawley ease and the prospect of another murder trial, that of O'Neal, has aroused a
(rood deal of iuquiry as to where capi
tal punishment would be administered
in case any jury should decide that some one must stretch hemp. The law
has changed since the last Wayne
county murderer was punished. The hanging bees in this state now take place at Michigan City, and in case either of the two men now accused of
murder in the first degree should be
adjudged guilty and sentenced to hang
by the neck until dead, he would be
taken to Michigan City and hanged by the sheriff of Wayne county. The expenses of the hanging, it is under-
tood, will be borne by the state.

David Caldwell and Theresa Mott

Not in many years has Decoration
day been celebrated on a more perfec
dav than yesterday. It was neither
too hot nor too dusty, and the crow J found everything to their liking, a day
perfectly adapted to the observance ot one of tie greatest days in the minds
of American people in the entire year
The business houses observed the holi-
dav in a general manner, both by dec
oratii?r freely and by giving their
clerks a half holiday. From 12 to
o'clock in the afternoon a continual
stream of people flocked to the Glen,
some on street cars ard some in
riaflts and on foot, until the beautiful
park was fairly alive with humanity.
eager to witness an tne exercises ana
to share alike in honoring the nation's dead. About the lake the crowd re
minded one of "Chicago day" at the
World's Fair. The crowd was good
natured and there was nothing to mar
the serenity of the day.
Shortly after 1 o'clock the assembly call was sounded by the buglar at the post rooms, on north eighth street, and the post comrades, soldiers, sail
ors, members of the Womans' Belief Corps, Sons ot Veterans, and other
auxiliaries met and proceeded to Glen Miller park in the street
cars. Upon arriving at the
park, the Sons of Veterans, followed
by the ladies and the post, 300 strong,
marched to the speaker's stand, where seats were reserved for them. The stand was located just north of the
pavillion and faced the south.
Flowers and the national colors formed the greater part of the decorations
and the pictures of Lincoln, Washing
ton, Logan, Grant. Thomas, Sheridsn
and McKmley occupied prominent places. The "In Memoriam" monument stood to the left of the platform and in front of it was a new monument, never before seen at a decora
tion day celebration. On this were
the words In Memory of the Maiae '
and it will ever occupy a prominent place in the program of Memorial Day,
After the soundiD of the assembly,
Commander A. G. Compton called the meeting to order, and the program was
opened with Tramp, Tramp, Tramp, the Boys Are Marching," by tha band,
which was followed by the beautiful
song, entitled lne bong ot Indiana, by the pupils of the Garfield school building, under the direction of Prof. Reese. , The Kev. J. McD. Hervey of
the United Presbyterian church then invoked divine blessing, and the regu
lar memorial service ,.ff. tne G. A K.
Iwma given, whusu iimuu1 tb readiag of the order from headquarters and President's address at Gettysburg.
After another selection by the band,
prayer was offered by Chaplain I. C. Doan. A pretty recitation by Miss
Hazel Kline was followed by the Woman's Relief Corps' service for the children. The last number of the preliminary program was a recitation by Miss Harriet Nardin, which was
well received.
The speaker of the day was Colonel N. Wallingford, of Greensburg,
Ind., and the address was one of the
most eloquent ever heard in this city, and was listened to with profoundest attention. " In opening his address he
paid a glowing tribute to Richmond
and Wayne county aud described it as
the storm center o. Indiana during
the war" on account of its being the
home of Morton, Bennett, Starr aad
Meredith. He considered a privilege
to speak to the citizens of Richmond,
famed for their patriotism, culture and refinement. 'Let us here," said the speaker, "as another war is upon us, rededicate ourselves to the great heritage bequeathed by Washington, preserved by Lincoln, and exemplified by our President of seventy millions of people." Colonel Wallingford then reviewed the civil war, its- loss of life, cost and results. For almost an hour he spoke of this and then turned his attention
to the present struggle. He spoke of the tyranny of Spain from
Cortes to Weyier. it has raised more crosses in more lands under more skies than any other nation. Cuba's pres
ent rebellion is the most heroic strug
gle against tyranny in the history of the world. The United States was
patient, looking on the awful condition
with but apparently little concern
The United States has been right in every struggle upon which it has entered and it is right in this. When
Colon! Wallingford spoke of the vic
tory in the bay of Manilla and at nu
meront other times, the large audience
burst ltto applause.
At toe conclusion of the aduress the
presentation and dedication of the nag
donated to the city by Messrs. us-
bauin & Mashmeyer took pla?e. The
presentation was made by Hon. John
L. Kupe, in a brief but stirring cd-
dress. He paid a most beautiful and
inspiring tribute to "Old Glory." He said the gift was made from no seltL-h motives, but that these gentlemen were stirred by the wave of patriotism which U sweeping over the land from
sea to sea and, "Thank God, this time
from the lakes to the gulf."
Mayor J. S. Ostrander accepted the
gift in the following words:
From the time warrior-do rn man first buckled on the sword to maintain supremacy by tie force of arms, some symbol of sovereign might has blazed
at the front on every contested field of Paean or of Christian land. Whether it
has been the standards of Israel sweep
ing clear the country promised 'mid
the thunderings and thick darkness of
Sinai; the eagles of Rome m then
lofty flight from the mouth of the Eu
phrates to the summit of the Gram
pian mountains; the bees of Napoleon buzzing on Spanish heights and chilled in Russian snows; or the stars aud
stripes of Old Glory crowning the
blood stained slopes of Gettysburg,
waving in beauty above the elouds of
Lookout: Borne chosen emblem
unity and power has ever shown nations the path to victory and taught
heroee how to die.
"Men seal their devotion to an idea
a principle with their lives; but the mind is so constituted that the ab
stract thought must have material ex- TM r TIIQ1 fy f 1 QT istenee and this the flag supplies; for. J ililAff LCI UAwL
oy some oceuit process or transuo-i
stantiation it becomes in the eyes of
the patriot the visible state; the em
bodiment of all that is grand and
good and true in the structure of the
nation: its defense the one lesson of
patriotism; treason to ita cause the nn
pardonable sin.
"Acd so, from man's yearning for a
viFibie, bodily cause to champion, onr
banner of beauty and glory was born and with the intense patriotism which
freedom breeds men have gone to im
mortality under its folds, the shout of victory ringing in their ears, through more than a century of years, from Saratoga where its eolurs first waved
triumphant; to Manila where the foe that challenged, sleeps with the fishes,
fathoms deep.
"Breathes an American with soul
so dead, who does not love the dear
old flag, its every stripe and every
start Its cause has ever been the
cause of human tight aaiast human
wrong. Its story of unbroken victory
ia the st.ry of the world' progress
from thralldom to the light of freedom,
from the get who amy and keep who

teenth century.
Now again it makes history in the
world's progress and in the cause of
humanity thrones totter, dynasties
crumble, tyrrany dies. So may it evei
be wherever the flag waves may it ever
be in cause that is just and may the
God of battles lift it in victory a bea
con of encouragement aud hope to the down trodden and oppressed of all the
world.
"In the name of the people of Rich
mond I accept this flag in the same patriotic spirit that prompted the ger-
erous gift, and give it to the breeze that all may feed upon its beauty with
pride in the cause it represents aud re
newing our fealty pledge anew our lives, our fortunes and our sacred honors to maintain it aloft in the fore front of the battle for human rights
until cruelty, wrong and oppression are only names of woes that were and are not "
Rev. Jonn McD. Hervy dedicated
the flag in a fervent prayer. The fl ig was then raised while the children
sang Mar spangled Banner." Ihree
rousing cheers were given for the flag
and the exercises of the day were at a close.

kers Character Mrs. Thraw ley's Character --Interesting De
Vclopments.
The Thrawley case is still on. The sM occupied all yesterday afternoon rjti rebuttal testimony. Some twenty ncitiesses were on the Stand, and all testified as to the character of Rufus SJbtemaker, and bis reputation for
pe-itjB and quiet. All gave him a good
reu'atioa. JThe charaetet of Mrs.
Tl rawley was also discussed, and the
i:p-rsr"t were almost unanimous in
wivjng that previous to the time of the
rr able they had never known the
wo-nan and had not known anvthincr
oi, ier, but that since that time " her
r potation had not been good.
the character of John Thrawley
was not called into question, as, owing
to tne tact that he had not been perru.tfed to testify, there was no occasion
for the introduction of any testimony
as to his character. He having given
no testimony, bis word could not be impoached. The failure tf the defense
to p'ace him on the stand, and their refusal to permit him to go on the stand iu his behalf, ereated considera ble comment, and was something of a
disappointment to the state, as thAir
had a large number of witnesses ready
to testify as to the man's character.
They would have given him a very bad
reputation had they been permitted to testify as to the character of John Thrsu-ley.
Aitother point brought out by the
defefe when they had their witness on tuft stand was that there were pow
der marks on the right s:de of Thrawley's head when he was placed is the
jail at New Castle. This had been
used as evidence that he had been hard pressed in the struggle between himself aud Shoemaker, and that he had diawn the revolver back beside his hc&d to shoot in self-defense. The state brought out by one witness in
rebuttal that Thrawley had stated in the jai that he had had an accident some five years ago, in which a gun tube tnrst when he was about to fire it, and that the powder had lodged in the sfc -a at the right side of his face.
lns'i-ad ot opening the case this
morning as the state had anticipated, the witness that was to have gone on
the stand for rebuttal was not called.
t not being deemed necessary to call
him. i The opening plea for the state was made by Prosecutor Kirkman,
who td the story of the killing as the state nd its witnesses had made it.
follow ing with a detailed dissection of the t 'njinj Tha rrin1r uMd by thm
Uoft-t-.-oa Ver taken up at length and in
the minutest detail, each being viewed
in the light of the refutation furnished
by the state and her witnesses. The argument began at 9 : 15 and lasted till
noon.
Thrawley is intensely angry at the
witnesses for the state. Last night when th3 evidence for rebuttal was
through he stated to the sheriff that the stories of the witnesses were false.
He said. that one man who had testified
to seeing the powder marks on his
(Thrawley s) ace when they were set
ting a pump, was not within five miles of himself or the pump at the time.
The prisoner looks weary today and as if he wished it were all over.
The attorneys for the defense
took notes carefully on the argument
of Kiikman, and it is expected that
Brown and Forkner will make strong
pleas in behalf of their client. Thraw
ley occasionally turned to his attorney, Mr. Brown, and whispered something in his ear. The man's face has a look of stolidity naturally, so that it is hard
to tell by his countenance whether there is a lack ot emotion entirely or any change of such emotions as may exist. He is still game, so far as may
be ascertained, and is expected to re main so till the last. Prosecutoi Kirkman ended his ha
rangue at noon and the next speech
was made by Prosecutor Steele, of
New Castle. He ma le a strong plea
that lasted most of the afternoon- It is
understood that there willjbe two if not
three of the speeches for the defense,
and Attorney R. A.- Jackson, of this
city ill close for the prosecution. The
case will not get to the jury before to
morrow n ght or Thursday at the earliest. It is not expected that the
jury will be out long ia consideration
of the case.
