BARTER OF CHRISTIAN WOMEN
Armenian Wives and Daughters Exchanged for Donkeys. (Boston, Jan. 26.—The latest advices ifrora eastern Turtcey not only seem, to show that the responsibility for the slaughter, burning and plundering of [Armenians there rests upon the Turkish authorities, tout correspondents .writing tfro'm Asia (Minor tell that 'the Mustafa Plasha (himself, commanding general at iKhiarput, shared In. the plunder. "It can ibe estimated on reliable testimony," says one writing from there, "'that the leaders in the raids of plunder and murder in this part of the country and the (chief part of the plunder Is mow stored in Turkish ouses in this city and in the houses otf Turkish Ag(has on the iplairv. Moreover, Mustafa Pasha himself toad a cordon of Circissisans around the 61ty and -when they saw anyone carrying* off a particularly Valuable thing they• (seized it and appropriated it for their chief. "Everywhere it had not only been a riot of plunder and murder, (but has been a religious crusade or 'crescentade.' The miscreants -have. In miany instances, demanded' 'that christians phould' instantly declare themselves iMussulmans, and upon refusal to do so, the Tatetr have ibeen shot dead or butchered in cold blood. Thep ressure brought to bear on the people of the villages has 'been and is still fearful. "There Is ia mater which shoulcf Ibe brought before .a European tri/tmnal. It Is the capture of the wives and daughter of christians and forcibly giving •them to the Turks and Kurds as their wives. (Hundreds were thus carried off during the ISassoun massacres, and the same thing has been done here also. A commission should come and examine the villages of Tfoh, Tadera, Yertmenik and other villages. In the village of Tadem, Turkish Aghas gathered in a large number of christian women end girds of the village and sold them to Turks and K/urda, taking in exchange horses, donkeys, etc."

ELECTRICITY IN FACTORIES.
Its Advantages as a Motive Power to' Dil-r ferent Branches. Apart ftrom the economy in oOst'of power which oan, in meat cases, be Shown to follow on the adoption of electric: trans? mission for driving machinery, It! la aitecea-, gary to polrat out Its preat convpniiiefnce, says Cassler's Magazine. However ingeniously the belt-driven gear of machine tools Is contrived, it is always difficult to keep the shafting amd belts clear so as to avoTd interfering with the WfWng aippliances in tihese factories. No such dimculty occurs in case of iclsctrlc tr»B.nsmIssion. In all larger tools the electric motor should form an integral pant of the tool itself, and the conductor can be carried to it in such a manner as to be completely out of risk or toterferemee wltih the gangways or the floor or with tihe lifting Q-ppli-ances overhead.
In modern factories, where large masses of material have to be dealt With,. there are many cases where the moving about off a heavy casting or forging Is, ir possible, to ibe avoided It is far more economical to bring the machine tool up to the work filKan to move the work up to tihe tool, and this is readily carried out with electric transmission. Drilling, shaping and milling machinery can be made portable and can be brousht up and fixed to the work by the ordinary shop-lifting appliances. As Soon as such a tool ts in position, power oan be appMed to it from distribution boxes, arranged at convenient intervals along the floors or walls of the workshop.
In this way the floor otf a large erecting Shop can be kept entirely free from obstacles or thlindrance of any kind, so that large pieces of machinery of any olass may be erected in the posLtaons most convenient for them, and any maphinlng to be done on them can be carried on by the tools being brought uo to oiem and operated electrically. It oan be easily shown tthat in most cases such an arrangement will lead to the reduction of the total number qif tools required as well as In the cost of doing the work.
Further than this, the introduction of electric power alii over a mechanical workshop Is attended with many advantages which are now only commencing to be appreciated. Not only can welding, brazing, soldering and many similar operations re•qutring high temperatures be effected by electrical means in a most certain and economical manner without oxidation of the surfaces, but annealing, case-harden-irug and other operations can be effeoted locally to parts of a structure, and results can thus oe produced wihloh were quite impossible before the Introduction of electricity.

LA8T CHAPTER OF THE PARK! COUXtl ROMAHCE AT HAND., fs06
'f
It Is a fecif^that wo antirder case to the crirai'lnal history of the state lis srcliv rounded with such an inpenatrable clttster of -mysterious and romantic oirouim«tancea a A the betrayal and death of Clara Shanks, whose body was found to the bottom of a secluded brook, In a ravine known as "Woif's Falls," a picturesque, place in Parke coufity. The Kellars •were well-to-do country people while tJie Shanks w«re poorer and of. course d)id ncrt flgum so pro mine tfly din the cominurtity. cmra Slianks was an exceptionally good look toy girl, "with a face. that wag, attractive and a .fonm that was ipeitfect. It 'was the talk of the neighlborhood that shte was Intimate wtith Dan Kellar and this rum»T was In a measure contlnmed when the fact "was disclosed1 th&t t3ie girl was to' a delicate condition. When the dead body of the erring girl was found In the bottom of the brook, it was at first supposed she lhad cOTrKnftited suicide to contceal her shame. The reported intimacy between Olara and Kellar gave rise to a theory- till at he had murdered the gftrl rath'er than face the vengeance of her brothers, who- are said to be desperate men -when aroused. This theory Was discussed and In a remarkably short time accepted by almost the entire neigWbforhood The coroner had held the inquest and rendered the verdict that death resulted from suicide.
Clara Shanks' Body Exhumed I But -when this theory of murder became general, 'the body was exhumed and the Investigation begun anew. This dnvesfigatton disclosed circumstances which resulted In the arrest of Dan KeTlar and his brother and his wife, Nancy Kellar, and his sister, Maggie Kellar. Dan was charged with the murder of the girl, white his wife, brother and sister were charged With ibe'ing accessories before and after the faot. At the tilme *f the arrest the feeling-against the accused in the vicinity to which the crime was domvmltted was intense and for a time 'it "was feared that mdb violence wtould be resorted to before the accused were given a chance to prove their innocence. The officers in charge of the prisoners exercised th-e. greatest precaution against such a measure and their oare, with the counsel of cooler heads, prevented such a calamity to staid old law-abiding Parke county.
What the Preliminary Trial Developed. The (preliminary trial was had before a Justice of the peace and the trial was the most exciting ever held before a Justice of itihe peajce dn tihe state. Farmers came-from every nook and corner of the county and the court room was •packed to suffocation^ The streets of the town were crowded with excited people and the question of Clara Shanks' death and what caused it was the subject fr id'iscussJon on every street corner, In every store and in every hausettiold." The Kellars were convictecL so far as public opnion was concerne^, and It would have required very little encouragement for the ind'l&nanit ditizen^ to have attempted to mete out Justice without he process of 6. trial. These were exciitihg times in Parke county and. times When excitement, and indignation almost blinded the people to a sense of Justice and fair play and perhaps it will never'be known how near the Kellars came being punished -four', a crime for which they hal never been tried. The result of the preliminary was that Kel•larr's brother, John, proved an alibi and was discharged. Dan Kellar, his wife, Nancy, and his sister, Maggie, if not guilty, are the victims of circumstances .which left a iprdbabllity of guilt and were recognized to the Circuit without bond:
Held In Parke County Jail.
They spent three months in the Parke county Jail and Jtist before their case was called for trial their attorney, Judge MdCabe of Covington, moved for a change of venue. The motion was eupaprted (by an affidavit by the alleged murdeTens stating that owing to •the intense feeling which existed agaftist them In Parke county, where the alleged crime was committed, they 3Td not believe they could get a fair and Impartial trial. The change of venue was granted and the case was sent to this county. After the venue to Vigo county, Attorney MoCabe did not feel like making a singie-handed fight and on his suggestion the firm of Lamb & Beasley of this_clty was -employed to appeal foe ttke defense. T&? st will be rejpfesented lby Prosecutor Howard Maxwell t*f th* 'Barke county district, assisted by Atth^y Bims of Covington, Rice & Johnston of JRockvflle and Prosecxttor'Huston' at ihls county. While the state,relied wfoqtly on circumstantial e\*tdence the (lawyers- say they have a strong case and fee! confident of securing conviction. It Is understood the opening statement for the state will be made by Attorney McCabe, while Attorney Lamb will perform the same office for the defense.

Cbfcago, Jan. 25.—The Ttrft'es-Heiteild will tomorrow print a long statement from liorin A. Thurston, ex-minister of tlie Hawaiian republic at Washington. The matter comes from Kate Field, tihe special cotrresponldent of the Ttmes-Her-ald at Honolulu. The abatement 4a several thousand worlds in length and is made over thie signature of Dorin A. Thurston.
Mr. Thurston says in part: "AiCter OomimSstsioneT Blount's return from Honolulu I va'inJly inquired of Mr. G-resh-ojm wh'at' the result w)as. He would not even adtmit thfet any report had been made, staitlng that siidh report If made was a confMentllaa one, and- that it was "unlfa5r" fbr me to ask any questions concefrning it. I ve rbally reiterated to him thai, owing Co the long delay and uncertainty, affairs were unsettled anid in a critical condition at the islands, and It would be in the Interests of order and peace to first oommxun'ica/te his intentions when decided upon to the Hawtallan government before making them public. This he Efeiid would be done. Qn the evening of Nov^tmberY, 1893, being temipora-riliy in Chficago, I flaw in an •evening paper a statement thait Mt. Gtre^ham had' rfecoimimended to the president to restore tlie queen and overthrow the Dole government.
Was Bad Faith Shown?J- I
"I Immediately tedegrcuplraJ to Mi-. HasrtlngB, Hamraffian JhOrge d'affalrs, to sete Mr. Greisham and ask It it Was true. Mr. Hastings d*d so amd Mr. Gresham said to htei, 1 esBunre yoai there is no IJownd'atlon for the statement. Do you think I would take so important a step 'without Informing youf iMr. Hastings telegraphed me the substance of the reply. That same night art about mlidnHght he was informed by a newspaper imlan that Mr. GreshOm's letter to tare president, reoommemSing restoration had been given out to tihe press assoOiaJtfiOns and wtas then going over the. wires. The 'letter was daJted October 18, 1893, nearty a month prior to Mr. Greshlam's assurance that there was no such letter. "No copy wtas sent to the Hawaiian legation, although I finally succeeded In getting a mfulfcllated copy, from whfcfo* dtipp'I'nigB hiad been made, from a representative of the Assooilaited Press. "I immediately called on Mr. Greishr am and stated I had seen thie letter and asked iif It was au'thentte. He replied: 'Of course, you know it is authentic.' I reminded Mm of Wis agreement to let me know thf substance of the -Blount report before it was puMished. He replied: 'I do not think it necessary. I knew you would see it in the ipapers.'
Concerning Queen lull's Restoration. I then asked if it was the intention of the United States government to restore the queen Iby force. He replied. I decline to answer that question.'
On January 25, 1894, I made a statement- to Mr. Gresh'am concerning the friction that existed in Hawaii by reaa-* on off the oonitinued demiand by Japan ijhat tihe franchise be granted to the Japan)ese. He ^ald, 'What do you mean by coming to me With compiaints about Japan. Do you expect-as to protect you from Japan? I Should think that the test country in the worM you would appeall to for assistance ^would^ be the United States-'.
He demanded iwhat President Dole meant by. sending an insulting reply to Mr. Willis (referrinlg to Mr. Dole's reply to Mr.Willis'! demand that the queen .be restored). .1 .'denied the answer was or Was intended to be insulting. Mr. Gresham eaidV "I say it was insulting and Mr. Dole's sole object was to say something sharp to the American minister when he had an opportunity.
He continued to'talk In this strain until it became manifest that he was simply trying to provoke a quarrel a \d I leflt the room.
Mr. Thurston then gives the detail Of a conversation with Secretary Gresham in Which the latter accused Mr. Hatch, the Hawaiian minister of foreign affairs, of being "a scarey fellow," because he had said that arms or ciie royalists had. been sent from California for the royalists. Mr. Gresham declared the' story to be utterly untrue. This was the ?ay aflter the Insurrection had actually occurred in the islands and Charles Carter had been killed.
Mr. Thurston gives in detail the manner in which he was betrayed by a representative of the Untted Press in relation to certain letters read by Mr. Thurston to the Unfiled Press correspondent..
He closes as follows: "In his letter requesting my recall, Mr. Gresham garbled and suppressed my explanation, s/tating only that I claimed that the references in question were news which I had aright to give out."

In searching for the thief Mr. Norris got separated from the officers ami came upon the man on West Main e'tree't. The fellow was driving for the wagon brfd&e when Mr. NorrlS caught (his team and brought It to a standstill^ The thief jumped out of the wagon and a lively scuffle followed between hflm and Mr. Norris. The old man fough't heroically but the theif was too strong tfbr him and goon threw Mm a«Lde, jumtped tn the wagon and drove northt on First at breakneck speed. There were at least a dozen men who Stood by and saw the scuffle* but not one of them had the manhood oi* the courage to lend! a helping hand. A few moments later Captain Pierce .Ones on the scene and started in pursuit of the fugitive. Ho ran over to Second street and north until he came tosBud MtoCoy's place where he Jumped into a rig hitched In front of the saloon and whipped up in the direction he thought the thietf had gone. The officer drove several miles noaith otf the city on the •Clinton road, butt waf una/ble to sight hla man. The fellow, .' had, no doubt, eluded the pursuing officer by going east Instead of taking the direct road to .Vermillion county.
When the captain returned to the 'city messages were sent to Clinton,.. Dana and all intervening towns, and it Is almodt certain, that the fugitive willl (be caught before or when he attempts. to cross the river to get over into Ver* mffllllon ooutfty, where he undoubtedly resides. If the thief is the man whom Mr. Randall suspefdta there Is no escape for Mm If he ventures back home., A message was sent to the marshal of* Dana to go to the suspect's home and] If he was not here keep watch on tha. house until he arrived. While disposing of the stolen turkeys the thief gava (the name of Smith, but it is certain this is not his real name. After receiving pay for the turkeys he engaged 1ft conversation with another man, whom he told his name was Schnell. Mr. Randall is sure that neither name Is oor« retet, but he Is a notorious dbaraotefl named Ingram, who lives in the vicinity of Dana and lives from "vvhat ha
faced, fairly well-dressed and wore a lblodk slouoh hat. He drove a Mght bay team hitched to an ordinary lumber wagon, the wagon is an old one but has a new bed. It oan be easily identified by the fact hat the bed has never been painted. Mr. Randall says there has
