The case came up last Thursday morning and was continued until this morning, when Judge Mack heard the testimony on both sides. The child could not be legally adopted by anybody without the consent of its parents, yet it was within the province of tbe court to decide which ot the two homes proffered was the more desirable for the girl. Accordingly, all the evidence having been submitted, Judge Mack ruled that the child should go back into the hands of its benefactors.

Thomas will also file charges against Sergeant Ike Trail. -What the nature of these latter will be remains to be seen. Thomas declares that his dismissal was a preconcerted arrangement brought about by the gentlemen whom he is now after and 4 that he proposes to play even. So iar as his belief thata conspiracy was hatched against him is concerned, it is shown to be wrong by the course taken by events in the investigation. However, if there be any irregularities at any point in the police department ventilation and correction are demanded.
MORE CHARGES.
Mr. Goodpasture closed bisremarkson tbe subject with words to this effect: "I am absolutely innocent of these charges. I never received a nickel from one of these men in my life and am ready for investigation at this minute. I have no idea what testimony he will introduce—how he will attempt to substitute his charges—but an innocent man fears nothing. I am ready for the trial, eagrr for the investigation. I have not seen Hedden or Martin, nor do I care to see them. I do not know what their evidence will be, but I'm not afraid of it. If thev'U get up and swear, or either of them will do it, that I ever received a penny from them, then I'm ready to unpin rnv star and hand it over. I can quit at least with a clear conscience and a sense of duty done. Let the trial be held at once.'*

A sort of a bomb shell is likely to drop in the police board meeting next Tuesday night. Some evidence, it is highly probable, will be presented to' the honorable commisMonens on that occasion, which, if capable* of substantiation, will prove that all is not absolutely regular with Captain Davis himself. Charley Thomas, the ex-patrolman, has his war point on and will file, late this evening, a num hereof charges against the military sufjerintebdenfc. of these allegations mil be that Davis has enforced*? in maby '^cas*s» the law against the saloons with reference to the closinjc np hour, while in many other cases he has given proprietors to underftanfttbat their doors might remain open after ll o'clock without molestation.

With
Officer Goodpasture Charged BavinK Kccetved Money. As predicted in TNK NEWS of yesterday afternoon, another police officer is in a position that will demand an investigation at the hands of tbe police commissioners. George Pitman has filed sworn charges against Sanitary Officer Goodpasture, declaring that the latter has received ?|gfmoney from
George Martin ands®Jerry Hedden, the same being in the nature of a bribe for the bestowal of patronage. These three men—Pitman,svho files the charges, and Martin and Hedden—are all en^Hijed iu the same business, that of removing refuse from the alleyfi and cleaning vaults, and Pitman alleges that his competitors have bribed Goodpastu^j to furnish them with orders for snn^jwjfwork of the character described. The^bmeer has been deprived of his star peudi%? au investigation.
He was seenlby a NEWS man this morningand importuned for an explanation of thcrcase, «o far as he might unierstand it .' .Me,waSs ready and anxious SSftSfk Ahdvd»)ttt*tnaei.nA- itihadevoid of all semblance of truth. "•Why," said he, "this man Pitman, on account of his having been burned out, has been favored by the sanitary officers. I myself and men under me have, for the reason mentioned, given him more orders than any other man In Terre Haute —yes, I should say more than any two other men." "Why, then, does he reek to down you?" jf 4s "I cannot tell you, I'm sure. I only know that I condemned the barrels used by him in his business and that he was very angry over the matter. It was my duty to do it under the specific direction of the board of health, and I did not hesitate. However I showed him a great deal of kindness. I had instructions to arrest him without not fication, but prevailed upon the superintendent to be allowed to serve notice on him and the others in bis line that they must obey the law or look out for arrest. One evening after that I Baw Pitman going over the river in his wagon after his barrels, and went out for the express purpose of notifying him not to attempt to use the condemned barrels if he didn't wish to be arrested and fined. However, he did not attempt to do it."

He goes abroad as a delegate to the national conference of the Bi-me-tallic League which opens in London two weeks hence, well as to confer generally with the bi-metallic element regarding the monetary situation. Mr. Del Marls firmly of the opinion that the country is almost on the verge of a panic, that moneV is tighter than it has been before in the history of the country, and that the conditions can only be remedied Ot forestalled by additional legislation on the silver question. He believes that the Sherman bill is simply a gold bill iu disguise, and that its"passage will increase the panicky situation. The only remedy, in his judgment which can stave off for a time a disastrous collapse throughout the county is a great increase in the tarv situation.

WASHINGTON,
mone-
D. C., July 26.—-The
urgent need for additional clerical force in tbe pension bureau to adjudicate the hundreds of thousands of applications I under tho disability pension act is to be met at tbe earliest practicable moment The house has already passsed a measure for making a special appropriation of $455,967 for additional clerical force and arranging for 463 more employes for the bureau during the rest of this fiscal year. This bill came to the Senate ten days ego, and the impression has become'general that the Sen-1 ate committee on appropriations intends to include the substance of it in the deficiency appropriation bill which is likely soon to be put through, but inquiry upon this point brought from Senator Allison, chairman* of the committee on appropriations, a statement that the House bill providing additional clerical force is to be passed by the Senate early next week. It would have been considered by tbe committee this week but for the fact that tho committee has been closely engaged upon other work. The com'mitttee will not hold the matter back to include it in tbe deficiency bill, but deems the existing necessities such as to warrant the passage of this special bill as early as possible.
RAUM WILL BE INVESTIGATED.
The Committee Report* and the II on He Accepts It.
WASHINGTON, July 26.—In the House the committee on rules reported favorably on a resolution for the investigation of the charges that Pension Commissioner Raum has sold shares in a worthless refrigerator company, of which he is president, to clerks in tho'pension office and promotea them in consideration of such transaction, and that he had advanced a thousand cases of a certain pension agent, who afterwards -went upon his note for $25,000. The report states that no proof accompanies the resolution yet tbe committee thinks. pro|er to investigate. The report was adopted by the House. The committee is to consist of live members. The House then resumed consideration of the irrigation of the sundry civil appropriation bill.

Senator Mitchell presented a resolution declaring it the seDse of the Senate that while tbe JJnited States would bail with approbation any reciprocal arrangements by which th$». products of the United States may be "admitted to the ports of South American republics, it is not desirable that, bides or wool be admitted free to the United States and requests the president in entering in negotiation to this end to omit the question of admitting those articles free »nto the United States.
