Found Dead In a Loft.
Early yesterday mornio Daniel Willig, vf no
lived at No. 1G3 Cast St. Cla;r street, was found
dead in the loft of the stable in tbe rear of bis
rteidenre. By Lis side was a bottle partially
tiled with diluted carbolic acid. Coroner Wag
ner, who held an inquest, states that the solu
tion was too weak to kill him unless be had
taken it in large quantities, and in that event
there would have been sins of it in hU mouth
and throat. The supposition is that death re
sulted from heart disease. Willig was sixty-one
years of age, and had some means. He owned

Drowned tn a Lake.
Joseph Bemlocher, a carpenter living at No.
33 Yelier street, was drowned in Shannon's lake,
eleven miles south of tbe city, early yesterday
morning. lie, with several friends, some of
whom were accompanied by their wives, went
to the lake to spend the day banting and fish
ice. Mr. Bernlocber is fond of swimming, and
scent nearly tbe entire forenoon in tbe water.
About noon the party went boating, -Bemlocher
alone occupying a boat. While he was some
distance from tbo other members of the party
they noticed him swimming aloorside his boat.
A moment later he disappeared, and before they
eoo.d reach him he was drowned. Tbe supposi

Unless all indications fail Cfyisni is the rock
on which the Indiana Democracy will yet split
It was mads an issue in the campaign at the
Stato eonventlon, when those representatives of
the party outside of Indianapolis rsfaied to
allow John E. Sullivan, one of the indicted tally
sheet conspirators, to become a delegate to the
St Louis convention. When Sullivan persisted
in ffolog before the convention of this district,
and it looked like he wonld he selected, promt
nsnt Democrats like Si Sheerin and United
States Marshal Hawkins threatened to carry tbe
fight into the State convention. Acting upon
the adviee of Coy and his other friends, Sulli
van, rather than take the risk of being sustained
by tbe State convention, withdrew
from the contest at the last moment,
remembering that there was another day, and
determined to "even up with those who had so
vigorously fought him. A day or two after the
adjournment of tbe convention there was a con
ference of the Coy crowd, with Sullivan in the
center, when it was determined to leave no
stone unturned in the effort to repay the men
who had used Coy and his gang, and then threw
them aside when trouble came npon them. Ono
member of tbe conference remarked to Sullivan,
you have nothing to gain and everything to
lose," and Sullivan said the remark expressed
his feeling precisely. One of tbe things the
gang decided to do was to nrge the removal of
District Attorney Sellers and United States
Marshal Hawkins. The fight against Sellers was
totbe particularly bitter, and some of those who
attended tbe conference openly boasted that
Sellers would he made a private citizen within
two months.
How much secret work has been done sinco
that time can only be surmised, but it is well
known that tbe breach between tbe two wings
of the party is wider now than it ever was.
Since preparations for the active work of the
campaign begun there are threats of an open
rupture. The fight Is between the Coy Demoo
racy of Marion eounty, which means about all
those who vote the ticket, and the State Demo
crats, or those who defeated Sullivan as a dele
gate to St Louis. When the State central com
mittee began to cast about for a chairman, the
Coy Democracy deoided to push Charley Jewett
as their candidate. As he was not a resident
of Indianapolis, bat few of the "State"
Democrats thought that he had ever been in
sympathy with Coy and his methods, and by the
votes of the Marion eounty representatives on
tbe committee and some nnsuspecting anti-Coy
men from different parts of tbe State, he be
came tbe ehairman. Highly elated with their
past victory, the Coyites undertook to capture
the secretaryship of the committee, and put up
as their candidate Albert F. Ayres, the man who
was to profit most by the tally-sheet frauds of
two years age. Those styling themselves
"State" Demcersts got an inkling of what was
going on. and whou the time came to select a
secretary Ayres vas defeated, the committee
unanimously votir.2 for Eph Marth. Preferring
to take a half louf rather than none, the Coy
Democrats demanded that Ayres be made as
sistant secretary of the committee, and
Jewett compelled to reward the men who bad
supported him, appointed him to that position.
The appointment was not satisfactory to the
majority of tbe member of the committee, and
they immediately set about having Ayres de
posed. It is state 1 that Si Sbeerin, secretary of
the national committee, and United States Mar
shal Hawkins, also objected to Ayres being left
on the committee, and demanded his removal
They represented that he was the agent of Sul
livan and his crowd; that be was the beneficiary
of the Coy-Bernhamer conspiracy; that it wonld
be urged that he must bave had some
knowledge of the conspiracy that was
to benefit him more than all others
combined, and that bis presence wouid be
a burden too heavy for theDemocracy to carry
through the campaign. The objections seemed
to be sufficient and Tuesday evening Chairman
Jewett quietly told Mr. Ayres that his services
would not be any longer required, and he stepped
down and out Ayres, himself, hardly realized
what had been done, and it was not until yester
day that this action reached tbe public. The
Coy democracy almost grew black tn the face
with rage at Ayrea's removal Tbe matter was
discussed in numerous small caucuses among
the leaders of the local Democracy yesterday,
and an open revolt is threatened. The followers
of Coy see very plainly that they are net suf
ficient in number to cone with the State
committee, named by Sheerin and Marshal Haw
kins, and rather than be snubbed and subjected
to all kinds of abuse during the campaign they
will, it is said, declare war. Speaking of the
rupture, a Democrat said to a Journal reporter
last night: "If tbe .members of the Democratic
State central eommittee think they can afford
to read out of the party every Democrat in
Marion county who has been identified with the
Coy wing of the party, let them do it It will
not only wreek the party in this county, but it
will hurt it in every county in the State. The
men wno do the work in this county were all
identified with Coy, and without their service
there is no cbanee of making any kind of a show
at the polls. There are too many of us to be in
sulted." Following this terrible rupture between tbe
Coy and the "Staten Democrats, there is a fight
between tbe Coyites of this county and the mi
nority in the party that like the majority of the
State committee, believe Coy ism shonld be com
pelled to take a baek seat It is over the county
legislative ticket It is a matter of current
history hardly necessary to recall, that tbe
county convention was captured by the Coy
crowd, and that the ticket was made under the
direction of the little boss, who' at the time was
a prisoner in the county jail in the daytime, and
a ward worker at night Those like Hon. Wil
liam Henderson and others who had fought
Covism. remained awav from tbe convention.
) and as a matter of course could not
be satisfied with the ticket made.
Only a few weeks after the convention the rep
resentatives of anti-Coyism began to take cour
age, knowing that Tom Taggart chairman of
tbe county committee, was pliable, and going to
him demanded that the decent Democrats of the
city be given represeatation on the ticket
About that time the matter of expelling Coy
from thi Council came up in that body, and
Stuokmeyer, ooe of the legislative candidates,
voted to keep the convict in the Council. .The
aati-Coyltes then began anew their efforts to
have Stuckmeyer put off the ticket, and urped
that no man who voted to keep Coy in the Coun
cil could hope to be elected. About tbe same time
alleged labor representatives began an effort to
have Wm. Flynnj another legislative candidate,
and foreman at Kingan's nork-house, removed.
Piisble Taggert was - visited daily by the two
factions, but the Coy Democracy and the real
laboring people, by whose votes Flynn was
made a candidate, felt certain that he would
turn a deaf ear to tho demands. Tho announce
ment in yesterday's Journal that tbe question of
revising the tieket was still under consideration
prompted some Democrats to make inquiries
about tbe matter, and to their amazement they
learned that tbe ticket had already been revised.
Whe& it was done, or by whom, no one seems
to know, but It was ascertained positively that
Heyden S. Bigham has supplanted Charles
Stuckmeyer, and Willi-stn Langstaff bas taken
the place of William Flynn, as legislative candi
dates. Bigham was a candidate for
the same position before the county
convention and was very badly beaten.
Langstaff is the gardener at the Deaf and Dumb
Asylum, and was nut on the ticket to suit a few
labor agitators Flynn, tbe deposed, has al
ways been a hard-working man, but was not
agreeable to the agitators.
The two men selected had been circulating
their cards for several days in some localities in
tbe city, and yet none of the leaders of the Coy
Democracy were aware of the change in the
ticket Who is responsible for the chance is a
mystery, but the friends of Coy are claiming
that it rests with Chairman Taggart They are
indignant over what bas been done, and are
wanting to know why a ticket se
lected by them should be secretly
changed at the request of a few men.
Thomas. Markey, a member of the executive
committee, was asked by a Journal reporter if
he knew when the' change was made. "I don't
know that thero has been any change," said he.
"I have never been spoken to about it It was
not done at a meeting of tbe eommittee when I
was present." As Mr. Markey is one of the
leaders of the Coy Democracy, and voted with
Stuckmeyer to retain Coy as a member of the
Couneil. it is not probable that he would bo in
vited when the conspirators were at wort.
Working fur Spontaneity.
The Democratic managers were again busy all
day yesterday and late last night preparing for
their ratification meeting Saturday night Since
their claim that it was to be "only a little local
affair has been exploded they acknowledge that
il ii hoped to make the demonstration ct ef
the greatest in which the Democrayof the Sttte
ever participated. Clubs have been invited in
from all the surrounding counties, and three
weeks of nneeasing work have been devoted to
making a show on the part of the
elty Democracy. Ed Gould is attempting to
carry out his promise to make the labor end of
it a great success. Chairman Taggart has sup
plied him with numerous transparencies, and all
he has to do now is to induce those whose cause
he claims to represent to carry them through
the atreeta The railroad elub is still receiving
accessions from those who never did more than
ride over roads, and all other details of the
demonstration, the managers say, are nearlcg
completion.

HWKYTE WAS DISCHARGED
Some Queer Wrinkles in the Record of a
Meeting of tho Hospital Trustees.
Gapen Manages the Affair, White Harrison
Totes TTith Him, After Tellinjthe Private
Secretary that He Is Hit Friend.
Dr. D. V. Kyte, who was so unceremoniously
discharged at the Insane Hospital, last Sunday,
and concerning whose discbarge Dr. Galbraitb,
the superintendent, says it is none of the Jour
nal's business, is still in the city. Ho was seen
by a Journal reporter yesterday, after the publi
cation of the remarks of Dr. Galbraith and Phil
Gapen on the subject, and in answer to the In
quiry whether he had anything to tar in the
matter, he replied: "I declined to say any
thing when asked about this thing once, hut
since Phil Gapen says that I was too smart
and Dr. Galbraitb, the superintendent, is ac
credited with an answer which, if not implying
that there was something wrong on my part ad
mits of any construction the public wishes to
place upon it, I consider that a few facts rela
tive to the matter are not out of place, and, un
der the circumstances, are only fair to me."
"Can yon give the circumstances, then, that
lod to your discharger
"I can sir. There is no secret in it so far as
I am concerned. It Is the other side who wishes
to conceal things. The trouble which finally
culminated in my d ischarge from the service of
the hospital was first openly manifested in the
March meeting of the board of trustees, at
which time Mr. Gapen, owing to personal spite.
and the influence of Drs. Stockton and Howard,
as I am creditably informed, as well as other in
fluences outside the hospital, Introduced the fol
lowing motion, as appears in the record of the
board of trustees, page 510: "P. M. Gapen
moved that the superintendent be requested to
discharge D. V. Kyte, the time-keeper and pri
vate secretary of the superintendent V ote
Gapen, yes; Burrell, no: Harrison, yes."
"Were you anticipating any sucn action as
this!"
"Well, only in this way : Dr. Harrison, tn the
morning before this session of the board was
held, told both Dr. Galbraith aud myself that it
became necossrry for him to do something det
rimental to my interests during the day, as he
was under certain obligations to Mr. Gapen
to do so, but that whatever might anpear on the
minutes of the meeting relative to me was to
receive no attention, and that 1 was not to be
alarmed or disturbed about it Immediately
after tbe adjournment of the board he came to
the superintendent's office and told us what had
happened, but that we were to pay no attention
to the matter, and that at the next meeting oil
the board it should be reconsidered and "al
made right.
"What was done after that!"
"With this understanding the secretary of
the board did not enter tbe motion on the min
utes of the meeting, but at the next meeting
tbe peculiar obligation under which Dr. Harri
son seems to have been to Mr. Gapen was just
as strong as in tbe month of March, and the
motion was entered as above."
1'Are not employes responsible to the super
intendent alone!"
That is the rule. Dr. Galbraitb himself felt
that his prerogatives as superintendent had
been infringed npon, and addressed the follow
ing to thj board of trustees, which appeared in
his report for the month of Ma)".
An Explanation After the monthly meeting of the
board, April 5, 1 found appended to the minutes of
the previous monthly meetinsr, a request that I dis
charge from the service D. V. Kyte, my private sec
retary. I had no desire at that time, neither bave I
now, to antagonize the wishes of the board, there
fore, it' is no doubt propor that some explana
tion, be given why the request was
not heeded. ft has been a rule of
the hospital, which I have carefully observed, not to
discharge employes who were efficient and discharg
ing their duties satisfactorily, without cause. Dr.
Kyte has been efficient and satisfactory in the dis
charge of his duties, as far as 1 ran learn, and as there
was no reason or cause assigned why he st o ild he dis
eharcod, I felt that I could not consistently do it.
Furthermore, I had the assurance of Dr. Harrison,
who had voted In the affirmative on the motion, that
he did not want Dr. Kyte discharged, and asked me
not to act 'rv accordance with the motion.
"Well did not this plaoe Harrison in rather a
compromising position!''
"Of course it did. Learning of the contents
of the report before it was made public in the
meeting, he hurried back to tbe superintend
ent's office with It, witn tbe request that it be so
amended as not to expose his "double deal"
with Mr. Gapan, as he called it.
"What was done under the circumstances!"
"That portion w.s torn off which related to his
'double deal' and the report amended to read as
follows:
I cannot believe that it is the wish of the board to
in any way embarrass me in the discharge of my
duties as superintendent of the hospital, and I need
not remind you of the necessity of having a competent
and trustworthy person to act in the capacity of pri
vate secretary. Dr. Kyte has now been acting in that
capacity for cine months, during which time I have had
abundant opportunity to test his fitness for the posi
tion. He Is industrious, efficient painstaking in his
work, and gentlemanly and courteous to all with
whom he comes in contact. I can but feel that his
discharge at this time would put me to serious incon
venience and be detrimental to the best interests of
the hospital. I therefore respectfully request
that the motion for his dtackerge be reconsidered.
T. S. Galbraitb, Superintendent.
"After this time, by some peculiar influence.
Dr. Galbraith's nerve seemed to weaken, and it
seems that when he refused to explain the state
ments in the Journal, it had entirely vanished."
Tbe above statements of Dr. Kyte go to con
firm those of another employe, when he said
that Gapen and Dr. Stockton were
running tbe hospital, and that Dr.
Galbraith was a mere figure-head. Mr,
Gapen stated to a Journal reporter that
he had nothing to do with the discharging of
employes, as that was a part of the superintend
ent's business only. He said that tbe board
could not even remove that officer unless a sat
isfactorv cause could be fonnd. The statements
of Dr. Kyte, however, show that Mr. Gapen has
had quite a good deal to do with the internal
management, and that he and Dr. Stockton, as
charged, are responsible for a good deal of the
mismanagement This condition of affairs is
well known among all tbe employes at the hos
pital. Bone of Veterans.
A new camp of the Sons of Veterans was or
ganized Wednesday evening, with a membership
of twenty-two. Thos. J. Hay was elected cap
tain, and Dr. Ralph S. J. Perry and H. S.
