THE PAPER MILL.
Difficulty in Procuring a Site Here in Terre Haute mad Srospeet That it Hay Go to JUxrille. ..
The people of Terre Haute ate familiar with the proportion for bringing to this places paper mill now located in Iowa. It is an enterprise which will be of incalculable benefit to our people, not only by. employing a large number ot persons here in our midst, but by furnishing a market for the straw raised in all the country round about heie, which is at present permitted to go to waste. But just at present there is a hitch in the affair which is likely to result ic depriving Terre Haute of the advantages which would follow its location. In a word it is likely to go elsewhere.
Mr. Close arrived in the city yesterday, from Iowa, having been notified that the necessary subscriptions to the capital stock of the company had been made here. The next step is to procure the location for the building. The mattei had been placed in the hands of the Business Men's Association, that was appointed last summer to get up excursions and whatever else might be to the interest of the. business men of the city. The association have not, however, procured any location, and in the meantime Mr. Webb Casto aad others, on the west side of the river, are endeavoring to procure the location of the mills at Macksville, and propose to donate the ground. Mr. Close was oyer there yesterday and was quite pleased with the situation, and it seems probable that this large manufactory, one-third of the capital for which is furnished by Terre Haute capitalists, will be built at Macksville, together with all the houses necessary to accommodate the large number of men that will be employed. It aeems strange that the citizens of Terre Haute and the Business Men's Association can be outdone by the little hamlet of Macksville, but such seems to be the fact. Something must be done at once to raise money enough to procure a site here in Terre Haute.
Greeting to Fathsr McEvoy. Rev. Father McEvoy was given an ex ceedingly hearty greeting by ine pupns of the Sister's Academy yesterday upon his visit to the school after his return from Trenton Council, An address of welcome prepared by the Sisters on behalf of the school was read by Miss C'orinne Cruikshank. Father McEvoy was greatly overcome by the affection displayed by the pupils and with difficulty found words to express his thanks.
It is probable that Father Clement, of St. Benedict's chuich, will be succeeded by Father Anselm, formerly of St. Joseph's church, of this city, and now stationed at Hoboken, N. J. Father Anslem is one of the most popular members of the priesthood and there is not one who has ever met him who will be glad to see him back.

/The Street Walkers.
The statement published in a city paper that street walkers on Main street after night-fall are becoming too offensive and too numerous is not consistent with the truth. There is not at this time nearly as many of what are generally termed "street walkers" plying their vocation on the streets at night as formerly When Mr. Fasig became chief of police he wisely followed the footsteps of his predecessor in thi9 regard. He gave the keepers to understand that so long as the girls were kept off the streets aod the houses run orderly and without any disturbances he should not meddle with them. Nothing has ever been gained by "pulling" houses df this character and arraigning the unfortunate inmates before a vulgar, evil-minded throng in police court next morning.
Paper Barrels.
C. C. Genung returned last Wednesday to this oi(y and left Friday for Evansvilie, his home. When asked about the paper barrel factory he proposes te build here he said: "The enterprise depends on the paper mill. As soon as it is built so that 1 can get the paper bound I will atence start my factory for making barrels, buckets and other things from paper." "Are you satisfied with the prospect of Close & Co. locating tneir mill here?" "Yes, I don't think Terre Haute business men will let so good a thing slip by."
Mr. Genung lives at present at Evansvilie. but will come here as soon as the paper mill is built. Some ot the best acquisitions Terre Haute has had of late have been from Evansvilie. 5

THE SOUTHWESTERN.
Action Taken at Newton, Ills., on the Subject of the New Road,
Walter Knight Decapitated at Fill* mere—Sundry Railway Note*.
'"J From Monday'* Daily. THE TKBBE HAOTB SOUTHWISTERN. The Olaev Republican contains the following eport of a meeting of the Board of Directors of the Terre Haute & Southweetern read at Newton: "Hon. Aaron Shaw, member of Congress went to Newton to attend this meeting, fortified by the following petition, which was signed by nearly a hundred of our business men and tar payers:
THAT WHEREAS, there will be a meeting of the Board of Directors of the Terre Haute and Southwestern Railway com* pany held at Newton, Illinois, on the 17th day of October, A. D. 1888, at which meeting the question of the location of the Southern Division will be settled. And whereas, the Vice-President of 6aid T. H. & S. W. R. R. company have extended an invitation to the citizens of Olney to be present, and give expression as to whether they are interested in this enterprise, and are do6irous of securing the location of the road through Olhey. We, therefore, the undersigned citizens, taxpavers, and business men, of the cityof Olney, Illinois, authorize and instruct those representing lis at said meeting to express our feelings of interest in the proposed project, and to encourage and use all reasonable means to securc the building of 6aid railroad through the city of Olney. V**
The termini of this road will be at Terre Haute and either Cnester or Grand Tower. It there connects with the Iron Mountain R. R. which runs through Pilot Knob and Iron Mountain. Terre Haute has a number of foundries, rolling mills, and machine shops also has access to those valuable Brazil coal fields, situated about' thirteen miles from that city. This road, with either Chester or. Grand Tower as southern terminus, will put Terre Haute in direct communication with those immense iron resources of southeastern Missouri, besides traversing one of the finest agricultural regions in Southern Illinois. We have hastily surveyed the route on a map, and find by crossing the Wabash river at DarwiB, and passing through Oblong and Embarassville, and there crossing the Embarrass river, that not only would this avoid crossing a creek very appropriately named Crooked Creek many times, but a much better crossing could be here obtained than at any other point, thus making a cheaper and more convenient route than any other line would afford. From this point it would enter the wealthy and prosperous country of Richland, passing through Olney, our beautiful and flourishing county seat, thence southwest toward the Mississipp river at Grand Tower."
Couldn't Catch Him.
This morning between 3:30 and 4 o'clock, as Private Night Watchman Jsseph O'Reilly was patrolling bis beat he blew his whistle at the regular rounds on the corner of Tth and Mulberry streets and was surprised in the darkness to hear a man put to his heels. It was after the rain, and tne slashing of the fellow's boots could be hardly beard. Joe gave chase up the alley between 7th and 8tb. Near Shryer's the fellow dropped an overcoat, which he had evidently stolen and this Joe has in his possession. Wh' was robbed has not yet been learned but the owner caa have the coat by proving the property. Joe continued the pursuit up the.allev back of Frank McKeen's. and fired three shots at the man to make bim stop, but in the darkness the nimble thief got away.
On Trial.
The trial of the case of the State vs Charles and Maliada Markin, brother and sister, on a charge of incest, was begun in the Circuit Court to-day before Wm. Mack, special judge. The defense demanded their right under the statute for separate trials. The prosecntion announced that they could not proceed with the case without the presence of a witness named Etta Reed, and an attachment was issued for her. It was report ed in court that this witness said she would not attend unless she was compelled to. The attorneys began impanneling the jury this afternoon. The case is an exceedingly dirty one and has been on the docket quite a while. It will be a relief to all to get it oat of the way.
Vs'
Crowder at Large.
About two months ago Edward Crowder. a well known boy here, escaped from the Cincinnati House of Refuge, Major Oliver, superintendent. A tew days ago he came here and Officer Dwyer and Lawlor got onto him and to-day captured him as he was crossing in the river bridge with his uncle, a nice olf* gentleman who knew nothing of the trouble. He was sent up for petit larceny and, being given too much liberty, escaped. He is eighteen years of age.

THE TERRE HAUTE WEEKLY GAZE1TS.
ESTABLISHED.
A Letter Setting at Rest All Donbts of Schad's Identity-
Chief of Police Fasig has received the following letter from the Marshal of Police of Baltimore, Md., in relation to Charles M. Schad, of this city, whose daughter in Maryland disbelieved his identity, and in consequence there was considerable correspondence and numerous publications in the papers. It is evident that the identity of Schad is now fnlly established. The letter is as follows:
NT,
V' POLICK* DEPARTMENT, OFFICX OF THK MARSHAL. BALTIMORK, October 23, 1888, Daniel Fasig, Esq., Chief of Poliee,
There is no doubt that she has believed that her father was dead^ She states that her mother (who died about three months ago) had made application for the pension which she claimed was coming to her husband. Since bor mother's death the agent who had the oase has also died, and the girl Tillie put the case in tbe hands of another agent.
There is no doubt whatever that your man Schad is the father of Tillie. There are a number of people here who know bim, and describe him as having tbe mole over his eye, as you do. Tillie says she received a letter from the Chief of Police, Terre Haute, speaking of a man there ot her father's name, but she did not think it was her father. She is taking care of the other children, and seemed very anxious to Know if 1 thought it possible that her father was living. Of course 1 was mute on the subject.
She said if he was alive be ought to try to do something for bis children. Respectfully,
J.T.GRAY, Marshal.
BLANCHARD'S SUIT.
A Salt Against Him For Money Converted. The case of Caroline E. Jones vs Ben Blanchard, the well known real estate agent, is on trial in the Circuit Court. Mrs. Jones, of Edwards, this county, gave a farm into Blanchard*s hands in January, 1882, for bim to sell, the contract stipulating that it should not be sold for less than $14,000 and that Blanchard should get a commission of
per cent thereon. The farm is located in Otter Creek township. Blanchard ef fected a sale in the following April with John C. Johnson, of Vermillion county It is claimed by the plaintiff that John son paid Blanchard $14,000 for the farm, but that with intent to defraud and cheat her he stated and represented to her that he had only received $12,600 and the amount of the commission money, and paid her that sum. It is also alleged that she made a demand on him for the remainder, which he refused to return, and hence the present suit. Judgment is asked for $1,500. Mr. Blanchard was on the witness stand nearly the whole of to-day.
$6
in money. The burg
lary was discovered about 11:30 Saturday night by Byford Reynolds, tbe clerk, who went into the store as he was passing by going home for the purpose of getting something. He found the money drawer pulled back and several other things disarranged, and going out into the rear room found the window opening out into tbe yard up and the shutters thrown open. Further investigation revealed tbe fact that the transom over the door bad been broken and that the thief bad effected bis entrance in that way. The burglar had first tried to make a hole in the door, but after getting one about large enough to admit his little finger found it too slow work, and broke in the transom. He dropped down a large shipping box from the outside so he could step on it as he was getting in. The burglar made his exit, not through the door, which would have been much easier, but through the window that was found open. It is likely that the burglar was disturbed by Mr. Reynold's timely entrance, and that but for it much more would have been taken. Mr. Reynolds locked up the store at 9:30 o'clock that evening. Some of tbe cigars taken are the "Perfections." which cigar is only sold here by Dr. Ferris.
Re-Elected
By the following Associated Press tele gram it will be seen that the Franciscan Council in session at Trenton, N. J., at which Father McEvoy is in attendance, to-day re-elected Father Lesen Provincial of the order. Father Lesen will be remembered here as a former pastor of St Joseph's Church, and is a little man ot indomitable will and energy. His reelection to the high office will be a source of much gratification to his many friends here in Terre Haute. Tbe telegram is as follows: "TRENTON, N. J., Oct. 25.—The Chapter of the Franciscan Order of the United States in triennial meeting, to-day reelected Rev. Joseph Lesen Provincial Twenty-six ballots were cast."
a Rewards. 1 The county commissioners do not seem inclined to offer a reward in either the St. Mary's mystery of the Nevins township murder case, bnt if the proper person for either is arrested and convicted they will make reasonable provision for compensation. The principle cf ottering a large reward is not alwsys good anyway, as it is an incentive for wicked persons to manufacture evidence to secure conviction and get the reward
