Wm. Cogswell, Hon. N. A. Plympton, Gen. Stephen Thomas, Gem CiUey Department Commander Nash, Corporal Tanner and many other well-known gentlemen. Gen. Butler in a speech advocated green back ism , and declared that every theory of finance he had ever held had eventually been adopted. He blamed the Democratic
Dartv for the accumulation of the vast
surplus in the treasury and the impairment of the country's busineinterests. The surplus ought to be used in paying
service pensions to Union soldiers and
after they had all been provided for the country should devote the surplus to administering to the interests of
the disabled confederate soldiers. They were not to blame for the war,
but only suffered from it. Applause.

Stock-raiseis itx the northern part of the county are apprehensive that the scourge has come to stay through the winter, and that it will rage even more violently than last year. Joseph Wallace, a patient, recently died at the insane asylum. His brother last week charged his death to rough usage, saying the body was covered with bruises from being beaten by attendants. The authorities demanded an investigation and On Saturday Coronor Wagner oi Marion eountyy before whom an investigation was held, returned a verdict to the effect that Wallace had died from natural causes. Charles Lawrence, of Edwardsport, Knox county, is in jail at Washington to await the circuit courts action on a charge of subornation of perjury. Three weeks ago Lawrence secured a license from the clerk of the county to niarry itachel Hadden, the young daughter of J. B. Hadden, a prominent Knox connty farmer. The old man caught and locked; up his daughter before the ceremony was per. formed, and has now jailed her lover for procuring some one to swear falsely lb her age. The State treasury continues in a depleted condition. Soihe of the counties have made payments in advance of the December settlement, but these will have to be credited on the December
settlement, which will keep the finances
as low then as now. The State officers
think they will be able to provide fund?
for the maintenance of the benevolent
institutions, but for no other purposes.
It is proposed to receive bids to f urnish the new asylum at Logansport, but the officers, say that they do not know of a
way at present to raise funds to main
tain it.
Friday a fire broke out in the magnifi
cent abbey and college of the Catholic church at St. Meinrad, Spencer county, and despite the efforts of about one
hundred men, the entire structure, together with most of its contents, was destroyed. The building .was a large four story brick, built in the form of a hollow square. The total loss will not fall short of $200,000. There was no insurance on the building nor contents.
The college will be rebuilt at once. The school term will begin on the 19th inst, and will be held in the former convent at Ferdinand, until the destroyed building is rebuilt. Sharpers in New York are working Indiana on their old but peculiar game. They send a circular to the unsuspecting stating that a distant relative in New York has just died, leaving the party a large sum of money. He is urged to go to New York at once, taking with him at least $250 to pay legal expenses, etc., after which tne game is worked in the same old way. Readers of this paper who have paid their subscription in advance are warned against this swindle. Those who have not paid their subscription may not need the warning, for they are little likely to
have $250 or more. Anyhow, have nothing to do with such schemes . Had the last Legislature, performed its

Governor Gray was interviewed while
at Jefferson vi He )rison, last week, on politics. Among other things he said: "The State is for Cleveland, and all the party leaders I have talked with are of the opinion that he will be the nominee
in 1888. I chink he is ihe most available man that could be chosen for that position. It is a mistake to suppose the
Democrats of Indiana are opposed to the Administration. Indiana will be all right at the next election, and there will be a large Democratic majority. We lost, the last time partially because we had no organization, but more on ac-
i count of disaffection in the party. The
Republican officeholders were being retired too Blowly to suit most people, and then a great many of the appointments did not give satisfaction. The people blamed the Congressmen for the appointments, and this cause cost the Democrats 3,000 votes in the Fourth District alone."
KILLED IN THE CRASH.
SEilMAN CATHOLICS. A Society With a Very Long Name Meet in Chicago And Transact "Business" X Violtiit Attack Up on the Knigkta of Labor The Use of fchfc fter&a'n Imugunge. The first business session of the German Roman Catholic Central Union of America, was held at "Chicago Monday. There were about 300 delegates present. President Spannhorst, of Detroit, made an address of greeting to the delegates He claimed that the attUUde of the German Catholics toward other nation alities had been misrepresented, and false reports circulated. In his opinion the German Catholics recognized no distinction Of nationalities. No national questions ever came up before their meetings. - On the questions at issue between the Irish and German Catholics, the church alone had authority to decide. He asked the delegates to use no hard expressions against the other nationalities. The Germans in America were obliged to perserve the German

During the performance oh "Dhe Romany Rye" in the theater at Exeter, England, Monday evening, the building was discovered to be on .fire. The audience became panic-stricken, and made a rush for the exits in spite of the he
roic enorls of the attaches to reassure them and induce them to go out quietly. The occupants of the pit engaged in an
awful struggle for egress in the narrow aisles. Mea and women were deliber

persons were almost entirely denuded in
the terrible fight for life. The pit was

The occupants of the gallery did not

stairs, and hero an almost indescribable
scene of terror and slaughter ensued. The rush for the stairs was terrific, and in a monent the entire passage was blocked) those pePsodsi who kept their ieet being supported by a solid mass of prostrate humanity. The shrieks, groans and curses of the imprisoned and the trampled, the wounded and the dying, were heartrending, but there was no relief, and in a moment scores of men and women
were either suffocated or killed by being
trodden upon A nre escape was at

pressure was relieved and a great many persons were lowered to the street. As

trying to Germanize America. That charge was unjust. The Germans wert true followers of the church and understood its teachings. After the appointment of committees, Mr. Greorge Mielch, of St. Pavl, introduced a resolution, df which the following is a translation: Whereas, The so-called Knights of Labor come forth from day to day with their talk for the purpose of helping the working men to their rights by unrighteous means, and trampling law and order under foot, and trying to destroy scriptural faith, therefore, be it . Resolved, That we urge all Catholic working people to keep away from said societies, for according to our, experience such company is not advisable for Catholic working people; for where Prohibitionists, Anarchists and Socialists assemble to consult about the welfare of mankind, there should not be found any German Catholic working man. In order to protect the good name of German Catholic societies from all injury, all societies should be ' ex horted not to receive in their midst any Knights of Labor, and such as are already in them should be induced to leave said order of the Knights of Labor. Mr. Mielch spoke in support of this resolution. He claimed that the Knights of Labor had a demoralizing influence upon the German workingmen. He failed to see any difference between the Knights of Labor and other ''socialist
and prohibitionist societies." Me was sorry to see that many Germans were
at present members of an order the
leaders of which had addressed apeti

THE B. & 0. DEAL DEALT. A JPdtiwrful Sy ml teat Gets Possession ot tfae PiiojpeHf And Will Operate Ir.in thr IntetMt of the Pennsylvania Company, Particulars of the TraniHfer-Sto;lj:4 Go Up, and Everybody ia Buying. It was linn onncod Saturday that the long talked of "B. k O. deal" has finally been consummated A syndicate composed of J. S. Morgan & Co., of London, Drexel Morgan & pa, of New York and
several other finacmal firms made the
purchase. The most important point in
the contract provides that the manage ment of the company shall be placed in competent hands satisfactory to the syndicate. A . J. Cassatt, formerly vicepresident of the Pennsylvania railroad
company, is generally believed to be booked as Mr". Garrett's successor. Satisfactory contracts are also td b 3 made with the Pennsylvania and Iteadiog railroad on all business5 north of Philadelphia, and ;mfch alt the Other trunk lines entering New York, by which all antagonisms will be removed aad insure the permanent working of the Baltimore A Ohio in harmony wit h the Hther thuiB: lines. In addition to these contracts. t;he lines in process of construction irom Philadelphia to New Yo rk will be suspended in their construction just an they now stand, and the work on State n Island stopped. In consideratipn of these contracts being signed, and with the control in their hands, the syndicate agree to relieve the railroad from its present embarrassment by providing $10,000,000 with which to take up the floating debt. On of the parties to the syndicate authorized, the following statement as the outcome of the contract: "The position of the Baltimore .& Ohio railroad as ah Isbmaente in the railroad, sleeping-
car, expresB anu telegtapn business is given ub. All the outside enter
prises will be sold to parties to whom they will be valuable. The Western Union will control, if it does not buy, the telograph lines, and the Pullman Palace Oar company will take the sleep
ing-car business. The express business
has already gone to the . United States Express Companj'i The affairs of the railroad cbmpan1 wiil be entirely reorganiiied and placed upon a sdund financial batus." The olaiise of the contracts suspending all work on the extension from Philadelphia to New York is believed to be the key-note of the syndicate's i aterestjn the negotiations, and is construed to mean that tbo Baltimore & Ohio railroad, when digested of all extraneous enterprises , will be operated practically by the Pennsylvania Tailroad.
