the chaplains of the respective institutions. It is expected that he will look after all the paroled prisoners sent home by the board of pardons from the respective institutions under the indeterminate system. These . are scattered about in various parts f the state, and it is impossible for

a man, no matter how vigilant he may be, to keep bis eyes upon the actions-of such rtcrsons:"Tlie new proposed system would invest the county superintendents of police with the duty of looking after such persons. The warden of the prison would ascertain the destination of the paroled prisoner, and notify the superintendent of police of the county to which the man was going. A quiet, unobtrusive watch could then

be kept on such men, and the very knowledge that the system exists would have a wholesome effect on the order of the communities. The plan, which was an ideal one on paper, and which promises totally to annihilate crime, was somewhat the worse for wear by the time Mr. Mellett of Elwood, and Mr. Downey of Aurora had got through with it. Mr. Downey presented indisputable figures that proved the new plan to mean an increase of at least $5X),1HH) to tl.lHW.IKH) more per year in the state of Indiana than the present system costs. The discussion was continued for some time. The question of sanitation was also briefly discussed. At the session of councilmen last night and also at the league session that followed numerous questions of more or less interest, and all of considerable importance, were taken up and discussed by the visitors and local members of the league. Quite a number of the visiting delegates had had trouble with telephone companies that issued franks for otlicial business over their lines and then collected the usual fees besides. President Dungan stated that he thought there was a legal recourse from such treatment, and that the remedy should be applied. The question of the right of cities to have shade trees trimmed at the expense of abutting property owners who refused to do so was also brought up, and it was unanimously decided that cities and corporations have such right. The question of expense for tapting water mains was brought up. It was found that people in Richmond had more to pay for that privilege than those of any other town or xnxration in the league, bv about

150 to 300 per cent. The question of

charging a minimum rate for water,

whether such amount of water was used or not used by the cousumer, was discussed: also the matter of meter rent. The sentiment was general and decided that water companies had no right to charge for water that was not used, and that Richmond paid higher meter rent than any other city in the league. The advice of those in better circumstances along those lines was: "lie more careful in framing your franchises hereafter, and own everything you can in the way of electric light . and water works." Mayor Dungan sprung one of the principal things for which the league is formed and in which it may be made most useful to establish a

uniformity of ordinances for the cities and towns in the state. The

purpose of this is economy in time and money spent annuallv in liti-

' sration. For instance, if the citv of

', Richmond has an ordinance on a cer

tain subject and a test case under that ordinance arises, the decision

of the supreme court will apply not .ffily to Richmond but to Columbus,

got too hot for him today. The

privilege was formally presented him by City Attorney Jessup, who

added however the warning that Mr.

Downey would in all probability find the banks of the Whitewater too

thickly populated with local Demo

crats, to be accommodated with fish

ing room.

The league proper adiournedJajit I night to meet at :30 this evening at

the council chamber. A session of an hour and a half will be held there and then the delegates will join the Commercial club in a banquet at The

Colonial. It is probable that the next meet-

ins; of the leaerue will be held at

Columbus, Ind.

All preparations are making for

'State.

Judy-e John F. Kibbey died las -

night about 10 o'clock of heart fail

ure. He had been out on the street as usual yesterday, and was at sup

per last nirht. llis illness came on

suddenlv and his death followed al

most immediately. He had been in

failing health for some time, and had retired some two years ago from the

active practice of law. He was one of the most prominent jurists in the

state, and was a man of remarkable

mental attainments. He was a mem

ber of the First Presbyterian church

of this city.

A meeting of the bar will be held

to commemorate fitly the memory of

the old and honored member of the

bar of Wayne county.

Appended is a sketch of his career,

in brief:

John F. Kibbey, long a judge of

the circuit court for Wavne couatv,

was born in Richmond. May 4, 18Jt.

lie was the olv son of John C. Kib

bey and Mary Espy. His grand

father, rphraim iviboey, was a native of New Jersey, and served in

the colonial army all through the

revolutionary war. In 17S0 he was

one of the surveyors of "Svmmes 9

Purchase," located between the two

Miamis, and in that vear served un

der General Wavne in the subsequent

Indian wars. John C. Kibbey also was born in New Jersey, but settled in Ohio with his "father, and in 1S13

removed to Wayne county, in I the then Territory of Indiana,

where John t. Kibbey was born.

He was sufficiently educated to give

his son ample ground worir , and in

1S45 sent the future jurist to Miami university, where he remained three

terms, but left without graduating.

In 1S4S he entered Senator Morton's law oSice, and was admitted to the

bar in 152, forming a partnership with the senator a year later. lie

was elected survever of Wavne coun

ty in 1S51, and held the otliee until

1S56, when he refused to run, owing to the firm's heavy practice. The part

nership was terminated by Morton s

election as governor, in lboJ Mr.

Kibbey was appointed state's attor

ney general, to fill a vacancy, and the following year Le was - made

military commander of his congres

sional district, with rank of commander. In 1SU5 he was appointed Com

mon pleas judge, and was re-elected

number of persons In the aggregate, who have ever gathered In Ft. Wayne

to listen to a candidate ror political

houors. He was honored also with

three larce parades. The last stop

prior to the urrlvitl here was at Hunt-

tutou, where a large illuminated pa

rade was given. Keachtng Ft. Wayne, the governor was driven immediately to the rink, where he was greeted with

prolonged applause. Having delivered

his address, he was escorted to a

large tent especially erected for th-j occasion, where he made a second speech and thence he went to Library

HalL where he spoke for the third

time.

Other speakers at the three meet

ings were Senator Fairbanks of Indi

ana, Charles Jewett oi tne lnaiam

Republican stat committee, and W. E. English, who during the Spanish

war was a member or General w neei-

ers staff. When the Roosevelt party

reached the rink, the structure was

crowded and hundreds of persons were unable to obtain admission. When the governor was introduced, the audience rose as one man and gave him three cheers and a tiger.

Floodlums endeavored to rival those

who made an attack upon Governor Rooevelt at Victor, Colorado, and In

a measure succeeded. on mainour

street, shortly before the head of the procession reached the rink where lioveroor Roosevelt was to speak, a

party of roughs on the sidewalk, threw a shower of rocks at Col. Roosevelt's carriage. One struck Gov. Roosevelt on the shoulder, and another aimed i.t the governor. roifsvd hlra and struck Col. Curtis Guild, jr., of Boston, in the

face.

cided yesterday to close down the mine. They gathered in groups on the streets and as the non-union men went to work, they were asked oy the strikers to remain at home. Some turned back, otlwrs did not. Those who went to the colliery, were stoned. As the small mine locomotive used in hauling coal from the No. 2 and No. 3 collieries to the Oneida breaker pulled up on the road near the hitter colliery, a crowd of women blocked the track. The women were told by General Superintendent Kudlk-k to go home. He assured them that their husbands would get an Increase of wages and that their other grievances would be properly adjusted. The women refused to listen and stoned the suierintendent. who was wounded In the head. Then the striking men and the women rushed toward the No. 2 colliery. A force of about fifty special policemen, who had been brought down from Beaver Meadow,

to prevent troble, attempted to inter cept the mob, but they were powerless to do anything and retired to their engine house. Just as the officers got close to shelter a shot was fired. This was followed by another and In a few seconds, many shots rang through the air. No one knows who shot first, bn It Is believed that both the strikers nnd the officers used their weapons. After the shooting the strikers dispersed. Sheriff Toolle of Scuylkill county, in whose territory the clash occurred, was in Philadelphia,

Striking Miners Demonstrate Their Fealty to the Cause. Scranton, Pa., Oct. 11. Thousands of striking mine workers marched In review through the crowded streets of this city yesterday afternoon and showed their loyalty to the cause fowhich they have been battling for the past three weeks. Not only did the strikers manifest loyalty to their principals but showed the confidence they had in their leader, John Mitchell, who came here to participate in the parade and to address the men in mass-meeting. - The national presidents's welcome was an exeeedingl flattering one. It was the greatst labor demonstration that has ever taken place in the Lackawanna valley. Thousands of miners and their families came to the city from all towns within a radius of twenty miles. It was est i mat oil that more than ten thousand persons were gathered around the speakers" stand, when Fred Dilcher, of Ohio, member of the executive board. Introduced the national president of the Mine Workers union. When Mr. Mitchell. In his speech told the miners that the proposition of the operators to advance wages ten per ctnt- was not enongh. the spontaneity of the cheering was surprising and almost startling. H followed this up by declaring that the mine officers ought to abolish the company stores and the sliding scale and that they should pay the men their wases semi-monthly as the Pennsylvania law directs. With the mention Df each grievance there would come an outburst of applause from the men.
