Louis Railroad, a lefcsed line of the Pennsylvania road. It was the old Attorney, not the new Secretary, who rode to Washington in Scott's palatial car."

Certainlv, we think, no censure can attach to Secretary Thompson for accepting the use ot the car, under the circumstances yet still it would have been much better, if it had just occurred to him, to ha ^e used the ordinary public conveyance. There is nothing out of the way in the proffer or acceptance of such cour tesies but just now the public is disposed to be very jealous of such favors. There is a general impression that railroad men offer these courtesies to public officers be-

cause they appreciate the great advantage of being on friendly, not to say patronizing, terms with those who have the administration of the Government in their hands and that it is a good thing to have the "powers that be" under obligations to vou. Though perhaps it should not be so, yet the acceptance of such favor# by courtit, Legislatures, and public officers generally, undoubtedly does compromise them to some extent in the public estimation and it would be just as well it when they travel they should use the ordina-y cars like common people.

In saving this we do not wish to be understood as reflecting upon Secretary Thompson, in this matter but as speaking in a general and impersonal way. ijp§!,

GEN. FRANK WHITE?

RETURNS FROM WASHINGTON FULLY VINDICATED. (From Monday's GAZETTE.)

This morning General Frank White, the collector of Revenue tor this district, returned from Washington. The public is familial with the rumors respecting his removal, which were further fed by various tilegrams that appeared almost every day in the Indianapolis Journal purport ing to be from their "special"' correspondent in Washington, and all being decidedly against the General, even stating that Secretary Thompson had really dis charged him.

,f*

When Secretary Thompson was here he stated plainly to a GAZETTE reporter, that there was no truth in such rumors or the statements given in the Journal. Last week the General proceeded to

Murder.

Growing Belief Thiit Nichols is Guilty as an Accessory,

at Van-

Vandalia Ills., Oct. i,

1877.

The St. Elmo murder is still the absorbing topic of conversation in^ that section of country. Although Nichols was acquitted of the charge upon his trial just concluded at Vandalia, there is a growiag belief in the minds of those who have given the subject investigation, that he is an accessory to the horrible crime.

Nichols was seen at Effingham, a town near St. Elmo Rhortly, before the murder, in company with a despera'e looking character, whose resemblance to him is very striking. It will be seen from the evidence given below that Nichols was almost positively identified by several witnesses as the murderer, although he proved a satisfactory alibi by several credible witnesses.^ The resemblance of these two men will account or the mistake of those person who testified as to identification. It is certainly known that Nichols held

A GBUDOE AGAINST SCOLKS,

one ot the murdered men, and the theory now is that he procured the services of his companion spoken of above, to commit the terrible deed. On the night after his acquittal Nichols, overcome with joy, got beastly drunk, and publiclv boasted that he knew the real murderer. Facts are being developed which may lead to his rearrest as an acsessory, and also the arrest ofthe principal. Nichols is perhaps the most desperate member of a disreptuable familv a man of bad antecedents. Atone time his noiher attempted to ft

Henry, one of the attorneys engaged ip the prosecution of her nephew, Abe Depuy, who has recently been convicted of murder. Nichols has also made his threats, and those of the community who have interested themselves in working up the case against him are in constant 5 FEAR OF A SSI NAT I ON, and great excitement prevails. "Com-, mitteea of Protection" are being organized, and sensational developments are anticipated.

heard Nichols talk about the murder the day he was arrested. He said that he was suspected of being the man who killed Scoles. He said ''they say down there that I had threatened to kill him because lie was the principal witness against me when I was on trial tor the murder of Howe." Nichols further stated "I think I know the man who did kill Scoles I know a fellow who looks very much like me, and who shoots like I do1' (laying his knife across his arm in the same manner in which the murderer rested his weapon.) Here the State rested, and it will be observed that it fyad made out a

against Nichols. The opinion prevailed that the jury would certainly convict, but the tables were turned )y the defense. A number of witnesses were introduced who swore that they saw Nichols upon the day of the murder at the town'of 8ul-livan,-one hundreVmiles from the scene of its commission. These witnesses were all persons of credibility, and the prosecuting attorney instructed the jmy to return a verdict of

NOT GVI LTV,

which they did without retiring. It is thought that this alibi was deliberately planned by Nichols that he had purposely made himself conspicuous at the town of Sullivan, having procured another to commit the crime.

The opinion prevails that Nichols was implicated in the 1 ong Point murder, and detectives are at work upon the case.

The work was done in tfohemia and is most exquisitely beauUiul. The likenesses are absolutely periect.

HAS BEEN NIPPED IN THB BUD. On Saturday night last the hardware store of Young & Young, at Casey, Ills^ was entered by aside door from which a panel was taken, and a case of forty-six knives of all styles and prices stripped of its contents.

Yesterday officer Hay ward arrested a fellow named McDonald here and he was placed in jail. In the course of the day a second fellow was seen hanging a. ound the jail attempting to hold conversation and he also was placed in limbo as an accomplice. His name he gives a« Billy Collins.

On the person of McDonald were found thirteen knives, which were identified this morning by Mr. Young as a part ot those stolen from him.

A BOY'S NARROW ESCAPE. When the Vandalia train arrived yesterday morning the conductor reported that a boy had *allen from the platform of one of the cars, while the train was going at- the rate ot forty miles an hour, about three miles this side of Reelsville. He said it was impossible to stop and pick up the body, as another train was following at a short distance. Later in the day information was received in this city that the boy was not killed, nor even injured .he arrived safely at his home in Terre Haute during the afternoon, having picked himself up and got aboard another train going in the opposite direction to that from which he had fallen. The boy's name was James Hickey.—[Indianapolis Journal.

This refers to our Jim, of the Terre Haute Browns. He intended taking a little jaunt over to the capital city and met with the accident related above. He returned to the city with a badly bruised face, but expects to be able to make the trip in a week or so, when he will be locked up in a box car unHl at riving in Indianapolis, when he will be escorted away from the railroads and turned loose.

SENATOR MORTON. Instead of Buffering any bad effects from his journey from Richmond, as was feared .by many of Senator Morton's friends, he seems to have been benifited by the change He was in fine spirits yesterday, and spsaf almost the entire day in conversation wilh Col. Brigland, and Mr. R. R. Hilt, secretary of legation at Paris, who has jast returned from Europe. The pleasant excitement ot the day seemed to have a happy effect on him and when a Journal reporter called at ten o'clock last night at his residence he found the Senator comfortably sleeping.— Indianapolis Journal.'

A RIDE TO DEATH.
