J. D. EARLY, J*KKa M. SAMUR,

Board of Metropolitan PoUee OoatflriMone-a. The superintendent acting on this or der, addressed tbe men at 7 o'clock telling them to see that the saloons were closed at 11 o'clock and not open before 5 o'clock and that no gambling games be allowed to ran. He also tola tbem to keep crowds from congregating on the street corners. He

Baid

I don't know positively, of course, but I believe that saloons up on Main street will be allowed to sell on the quiet. If this isn't th» case this trip it will be an attempt to enforce the law different from any other that has been made before."

Down in the Sixth ward saloons are reported from perfectly trustworthy sources to have been generally closed and their business in wet goods entirely ah ut off. Lou Gerhardt's place waa among the many others in the ward and the proprietor, who, by the way, haa tie oreait of keeping one of the mo*t orderly »atablishmenta of its kind in the city, and ia himself a pleasant fellow, spent the greater portion of the evening enjoying the entertainment at the opeia house.

Said a railroad man this morning: "1 don't know whether the saloons closed generally or not. I know that out in my art of the city (not more than a mile rom the union depot) three of us bought whisky after midnight No, I don't care to give the man awav—but he was open juatthn same and he waa not the only one either."

Superintendent Meagher thia morning said that he was on tbe streets until! quite late, and while he did not visit the saloons, himself, there waa nothing to in dicate that the saloon keepers had not obeyed the order, so far as be could ob serve. Hie order had been issued in good faith, was explicit and the patrol• men understood what waa expected of them. Aa a matter of fact, in the uptown saloons, while there waa an external evidence that the proprietors had yielded an acquiescence to tbe order, coatntnera were In aeveral of the establishments, were in front of tbe baw and were served witb drinks. It is also true that several gambling dens were in full nreration, jtm aa uiough So-called State Police Commissioner Early had not plead lor and obtained Judge McNutt'a perm»•iott to teaae the dosing order just aa though State Superintendent Cornelias

Meagher had not instructed hia force accordingly, Tha whole transaction from Early's pitiful play throuarb tbe gamut of the metropolitan superintendent tobic men, and from the men to the aaloonkeepeia, a piece of burlesque acting and a bid for popular sympathy so manifartly rotten that it amella to nigb heaven.

There wete saloons right on Main street that were open at back and side entrances after 11 o'clock last night in spite of Mr. Meagher's paper mache orders and there were gambling games going just tbe same as ever. Either Mr. Meagher and his men did not know this or would not know it, and one is as bad an the other. AfteY the Bunscombe order is given the head of the police force should have made at least one grand heroic effort to enforce it and then it would have gone for more with the confiding credulous people of this city than it does now.

This morning a NEWS representative while makidg the rounds in the outside district#—in other words, those away from the heart of the city—made systematic inquiry regarding the outcome of the ^brder which so-called metropolitan police mmissioners, evidently for mere effect, ured the court's permission to issue sterday evening. Baid one East Side 'oon man: "My saloon was closed at

A COAL WAOON STRUCK

»y

mm Etecirfce Hater al Third snl Walstat Streeta T*day.

About li o'clock thia morning a lively aoene tnmapired at the corner of Third and Walnut streets. A coal track drawn by one hone, and belonging to George Dodson, waa struck by an electric motor oar and literally demolished. Tbe driver of the wagon was Cbarlee Anderson, a young man the employ of Dodeoa. He was standing up in the empty wagon driving and tried to cross the street car track directly in front of the north bound electric motor No, 2d which was running at a high rate of speed. The wagon had not time to get ofi'of the track, and the motor man had not time to even slacken the speed of bis ear. In an instant a collision followed. The wagon was knocked over and the driver still clinging to the reins of his horae was thrown high in the air. While the driver was at hu highest elevation the horse began running and when An demon struck terra firma again he was almost on the sidewalk on the eastside of the street, a flight of about thirty feet through thin air. Strange to ray (hat barring a badlv scratched and bruised arm, he was uninjured. The horse also escaped without a scratch, but the wagon looked as though a brick house had fallen on it. The head end of the motor was scratched some, but the ear was not damaged to any extent

A BIG DIVORCE CASE.

Stops 'Alfwy's Heading Factory ToDay—Sr. Alfrey Is Angry. To-day the divorce case brought by Thomas Wharfs against his wife Ella for divorce came up in the euperiGrcourt. Mr. Wharfs, it seems, baa conducted himself in such a manner as to make his wife jealous of him and she caused him to be arrested on three different occasions to satisfy the green-eyed monster which bad taken possession of her heart. Hence Mr. Wharfs thought that when his own wife caused him to be a nested repeatedly it was time to secure a divorce, hence he aDplied for one. At the trial to-day Mrs. Wharf with Burt Kelly for her attorney, was fighting for every inch of ground. She is very bitterly opposed to leavine Thomas to fight his way through the cold world alone. Several witnesses in the case are expert workmen at Alfrey's beading factory near tbe union depot and Alfrey had to shut down the factory for the trial. To say that he is mad is putting the case very mild—he was furious. ,v--'

Many Terra Hauleans will remember B. R. Musgraw, the dapper blonde young man with a squint in hia eye and a sprinkling of reddiah bloudine wbiakars that straggled in the gale on either eide of hia face and who frequented our streeta until a little over a year ago. It will be remembered tbat "Bob," aa he waa famil iarlv called by hia friends on the streets, left this city because of alleged irregularities in certain real estate transactiona in which he waa concerned and that for some time after his departure there was an intense longing in the bosom of the police dstedSvea for an interview with him. In lUct the county baatile fairly yearned lor his presence. Mnsgrave was located at Kansas City a few weeks after his departure by a Terre Haute newspapapei reporter, but upon tbe publication of his whereabouts he left that place for parts unknown. Since that time nothing whatever could be learned concerning hj^ although it i» known that he has friends in this city with whom he has been in almost constant communication.

A private letter was received to-day by a gentleman residing in this city from a prominent real estate broker at Chicago, making inquiry as to whether or not Musgrave is still wanted-here. TJae letter coutalne considerable. information concernifig^the truant Musgrave and his transactions in Chicago which is of a somewhat personal nature and which the gentleman receiving the letter refused to reveal for publication. From auch information as could be secured, it would seem that Musgrave is not permanently located in Chicago and is there at tbe present time and purporting to be acting as agent for a wealthy English syndicate. To lay more stress on the "English you know" the wily Bob hds"assumed the role of an Englishman ftirnself. What the actual transaction win amount to, if in fact it is ever complete^}, can of course be only conjectured. Musgrave, it seems, entered the office of the real estate broker in question, and presenting a letter of introduction entered immediately into negotiation! 4or the desired property. The deal is said to be a big one.

A young genteman employed in the office as a clerk, who formerly lived in this city, at once recognized Musgrave and imparted such knowledge aa he had of .Viusgrave's career in this city to his employer. It is not known whether Musgrave sails under an alias. This new de-

The bride is one of the most charming and estimable young ladiea of Yincennea and will be greatly missed in social circles there. The groom ia one of the foremost and most popular young men of this city. THE NEWS joins their many triends in extending congratulations. Will Gray and Misa Jessie Watson, of this dty, attended the wedding and returned to thia city with the bnde and groom.

A short time after he had secured his appointment J. A. Willison was apt oimed to succeed him. All of this baa beid months ago. By a recent decision of the supreme court the state gebtarfss has the power to appoint fbe oil inspectors.

THAT PESKY ELEVATOR.

II ftet* Another Haa In Ssrlans TrasUs Haw. Yesterday's issue of THE NEWS contained an account of the latest prank of the court house elevator when it ran away te the top of the chute and stuck there. It ia broken somewhere and Judge Taylor told J. Y. Mattox, who haa has charge of repairing about tbe court bouse, to fix the machine, but under tbe orders of the coucity commissioners Mattox refused to enter the elevating occuoation. "Contempt Sf court," said Judge Taylor and by his order Sheriff Stout brought Mattox into court toshow why he should not be punished for contempt Mattox claimed that he had no choice in the matter and County Attorney G. W. Faria advised him to obey the court, the court promising that the materials should be paid far and a substitute put in the boiler house while Mattox was at work in high life. The commissioners did not think that their employee ahould be bothered to fix the machine after they had relinquished all claims to it. The court holds that the commissioners shall and do control that appliance and intends that the board shall continue to control it and pay the expenses arising therefrom. Truly it is beginning to be aloud smelling mess.

Mr. Mattox bas at last decided to repair the elevator, the court assuring him tbat if the county commissioners refused to pay him for his labor he (the court) would see that he cot his money.

Commissioner Dickersou was seen this morning and asked what was going to be done bv them in the elevator matter. He said that the commissioners were tited of being ruled by the court and tbat they were going to stand Judge Taylor a law suit. There seems to be blood on the moon.

At 3:54 o'clock this afternoon old sol crossed the equator and started on his race against time for the tropic Cancer full 1.500 miles distant which he must reach by June 21st, or suffer eternal humiliation. The days are now eleven hours and forty-five minntes long and will contiuue to lengthen as the sun progresses on bis northword course until he reaches the tropics of Cancer on June 21st, which is the longest day of the vear, being fifteen hours and five minutes long. He then starts south and continues on his southward course until January 21st, when the tropic of Capricorn is reached and we have our shortest day. The sun being at tbe equator to day produces nights and days ot equal length all over the world—hence tbe term equinox. Tbe equinox is always accompanied by storms of greater or less severity. Today is the actual beginning of spring.

A THAT STOLEN DIAMOND.

I he Diamond Which was Reported Stolen Here bas been Found. The diamond which a certain traveling man reported at tbe Terre Haute house as having been stolen from him on last Friday afternoon has been found. During the afternoon tbe gentleman in company with a friend, started out for a time, and in the course of their rounds late in the evening dropped into the Turf saloon, where a friendly scuffle took place. It is supposed tbat there is where the gentleman, who reported that be bad been robbed during the day, lost his "sparkler."

He immediately handed it over to4'Goody''Foster, the bartender, who now bas it in his possession and awaits the gentleman return.

WASHVOTOX, March 20.—The president does not propose to allow the German government to ignore the efforts which congress has taken to relieve the products of American farms and ranches from the suspicion of impurity. It has been tbe cry of the German authorities for years that American meat products were unhealthy because no inspection was made before these products were shipped. In order to avoid this charge in future congress passed the meat-inspection bill, and it was supposed that this would be sufficient to secure the embargo, but it seems tbat this idea was erroneous. The president says that the necessary steps have already been taken, and that the state department has instructed Minuter Phelps to notify tbe German authorities tbat unless the embargo is removed immediately the United States will at once in pose discriminating duties upon all German products.

BERLIN, March 20 —Owing to the un tiring efforts of United States Minister William Walter Phelps, Chancellor von Caprivi has removed the embargo placed upon American cattle landed at Hamburg, and it is likely that Mr. Phelps will be able to obtain the removal of the restrictions placed upon the importation of the American hog. Already 300 American beeves have been landed at Hamburg RS an experiment. This landing of American cattle has been carried on for weeks, and has only been known to tbe imperial government, to Mr. Phelps, and' to the authorities of the port of Hamburg. All parties concernea are pleased with the success of the experiment,
