It I Preseated to llim with a Cne That Was Voted to Him it a Fair Te!zrimn from 31 n. Bashnell and JI r. Bostelle. There was nothing about the Harrison home yesterday that distinguished it from tbe thou aaodaof other qalet homes in Indianapolis. In accordance with the time-honored custom. Gen. Ilarriaon and his entire family attended ehorch In the morning, occupying the family pew ia the First Presbyterian Chnreh. At 1 o'clock Governor Beaver, cf PenDiTlTaoia, dined with the family, and spent a part of tbe afternoon with the General. Daring the afternoon there were quite a number of callers, U close Indianapolis friends of the General and hie family. It has always been the cnetom of General Harrison to do no work on the Sab bath, and the large mail breocbt in was laid away unopened until this morning. NoiMtb tandtcg the re mark alio strain tbe campaign has been on General Harmon, his health is excellent, and be abuesrs as robust as he did be fore the Chicapo convention made him the partj's standard-bearer. On Saturday the Rer. Thomas H. Ilodnett and Mr. John C. ilcDeTitt, ef Chicaco, called .nd presented ta tbe General a gold-beaded eane voted him at St. Malacbi's bazaar in that city. Tneae visitors aU presented the following ai- Go. Becj. I!arr!ion. Respected Sir In behalf of your many friends and admirers we hate the honor to present yea this eece, which was voted yon at St. JJalacbi's Chnrth bnzaar, Chicajo, Oct. 29. 1835. Tbe ma jority f ullictently attests tbe strength, ardor and devotion of ycur adherents and followers. It shows that wbere yonr "white plume shines' tbe Republican cohorts gather in thick, close array, ooteriniatd at all hazards to win, for yon, the victory. We rrjard it as Indicating the drift of public opinion. We bail it as foreshadowing a felicit ous remit. We bone a few days bsnee to see it emphasized and confirmed by the verdict of the pooplo. General, we grt you; we extend to yon the hand of Mlowabip as tbe grandson of Presi dent Wm. HeLry Harrison, who, at tbe peril of lif, upheld the rights of the Nation, and recured to the pettier of toe Northwest peace, prosperity and undisturbed possesion of the richest por tion of tbe American Union. Kinsmen of him w.o, by his valor, genius and nobility of soul, left bis imprint on his ezo, and wrote his name indelibly in the annals of bis coun try. We are proud to meet you, and wish yoa God-speed acd brilliant success at tba polls next Tuesday. Wben tbe unrighteous rebellion burst forth, threatening to dismember the Republic, eripple its resources, and annihilate ita liberties, you resolved not to rarry further in tbe sheltered re pose of quiet life, so congenial to your tastes and nature. Buckling on the sword, you hnr ried on to the front to defend tbe grand old flag the starry banner, which waved so often in triumph above your illustrious grandfather. It. mattered little whether yoa lost forever yonr position at the bar. Year country was assailed, ar.d you rushed forward to grapple with the assailant Brave and dsuntleis on the field, you re turned not till the last shot at Appomattox was was fired, the Union preserved, and liberty and equality, irrespective of race, guaranteed to all the people. Resuming work at tbe desk, yon rapidly rose into prominence. Yoa achieved eminence at tbe profefsion. You worked out and secur-Hl to yourself a plsce among the truest and best of your learned brethren. Tbe leaders of the party were drawn towards yon. They understood yonr character. They appreciated your worth. As their choice, you were sent to the Senate, to represent the old State of Indiana in tbe no per house ef the Nation. Tbe people's Interests the people's welfare, were voiced there by yorr eloquent tongue, and supported there by your honest vote. The toga of the Senator dur ing your term, was as stainless as that of yocr array record and civil career. Genersl. In 1983, wben eitizens in a section of our eoramon country are denied the right of suf frage, for which yoa fought, and the Republio lavishly poured out its blood and treasure; when "a free ballet and just count," laid down in the Constitution and laws, are Ignored, and the very basis upon which the repnblicsn form of government rest, has been underminded; when the English free-trade policy, with its cheap, pauper labor is about to be introduced and established among us; when this per nicious system, which has dug tbe grave cf Ire land's freedom aod Ireland's happiness, and made her to-day an island of misrnle, want, periodica famine, is, under a fascinating, decep tive garb, about to be fastened ou the Republic; when tbe poor laboring man, , who wins bia bread by the honest sweat of his brow, is. as a result of this fatal policy, to be deprived of bia legitimate earnings; when, so far-reaching in its conse quences is this plausible English doctrine, if it should succeed, many of our factories mast be closed, work-shops stopped, forges smothered, smoke-stacks vnf useless, and not a few of the wheels of our .arius industries clogged; ia short, when the Lotted States of America, which, in her greatness, majesty and power, should never crook tbe neck or bend the knee toany monarchy orempirenn earth, iaaooghttobe male a commercial appendage of Great Britain, the voters of tbe land, apart from political affil iation, look to tbe eeioo of Old Tippecanoe to renew cn the famous battle-ground tbe fight for American labor, American manufacture. Amer ican protection. The time. General, is favor able for tbe issue. American manhood will never srrovel at tbe feet of the English aristoc racy, or hue the chains of servitude with which it bas bound the the artisan, meehsnla and la borer of Great Britain and Ireland. With firm cess and courage, born of virtue and patriotism; with keen, incisive intellect, mind well stored, heart loyal and true, throbbing in unison with every feeling and asoiration of the masse. General Benjamin Ilarriaon will assume the aggressive, and, backed by the Re pot', can hosts, he will push on, capture tbe enemy's stronghold end plant solidly thereoo the banner of protection, proclaiming to the whole world that American toil. American invention and American capital mast be protected, that tbey might go hand in band tocetber to develop the untold resources of this free Republic, and thus inure to the benefit of tbe whole human race. The Monroe Doctrine will then be en forced Iiterallr and thorouehly, and we will all celebrate afresh a Union victory on the plains of Tippecanoe, in which citizens from every part of :he commonwealth will be cordially invited to partieinate. "Relying on God's providence and this as surance, and witb the warmest wishes of our heart for yonr fntnre felielty and renown, we, the Republicans of Chicago's Wes Urn Reserve, tender yoa this cane. Anion the telegrame received by the General was that of Mrs. A. S. Bashnell. of Springfield, O., reading "Accept my thanks for your thoughtful inquiry. My husband was pretty seriously and painfully injured, bat expects to be able to east his vote for yoa next Tuesday. 9 V. A. Itautelle, of Maine, also sent tbe follow ing, dated at Wasaw, Saturday: "Addressed an ei.thus!astio meeting at North Manchester today. I find northern Indiana thoroughly aroused. Start home to-night confident of victory." Aaniher Falsa Circular. The Democrats are circulating a twapage letter-sheet, said to be en account of Bruce Carr's action as Auditor of State in reference to the Equitable Accident Company, of Cincinnati. It is a misrepresentation of a matter which has no significance whatever In regard to Mr Carr's of Ceial duties. The circular is promoted by per eonal reasons solely, which do not refer to Mr. Carr, except that he will not submit to de mands frem his eoemiee which are thorouehly unjust. Tbe Democrats use this circumstance to abuse anottsr man whose busiuecs with tbe eotaptny had nothing whatever to do with the Auditor's oCice, over Mr. Carr's shoulders. This means of warfare against an eeieot State oQcer shows clearly malice or personal Interest in a scheme which Mr. Carr has thwarted. The Agents Are Encouraged. There was an active real estate market all last week. There ha been such an improvement in the general tone of the market recently that agents feel much eneouraged. During the six days ending Saturday there wsre eighty-two deds recorded, representing property valued at $103,142.43. Among the more important trans fers were these: Andrew A. Ilelfer to Edward T. ilelfer, block on Tennessee street, between Washington and Market, 13,000; E. R Martin dal, tract ef thirty-five seres north ef the city to LvN- A. & C railroad eomnaoy, 1 10,000; and William II Celemaa to Alexander D. Robertson, residence on North Alabama street, near !ew York, 15,000. In enit tor partition In tbe Superior Court ia the ease cf Merrill W. JlighUhoe, against Mary J. Fountain and others, of the estate of the late William Willard, the founder of the Deaf and Dumb Asylum, the commissioners subdivided tbe ten acre tract frontier oo East Washington street, east Ohio and Randolph streeta into eighty lots. Mr. Willard boorbt this tract fifty years ago at $1 per acre. The lots now sell for $600 cpward. MINOR CITY MATTERS. To-Day'a Doings. REPUBLICAN BUSINESS MENS MEETING Tcx&iicson 1111. nxn COUNCIL.

Hstheriogton & Berner are constructing a neat pattern of iron front for a large block that is being ereeted at Muucie. Since the season began, which waa March 1, Kin ran & Co. have killed 240.000 hogs, against 272.000 for the corresponding eight months in 18S7. Knight & Jillooo last week put In a natural gas plant at Ogdan, and are making improve ments to the Marion water-works, which are to cost (2,200. The books of Geisendorff & Co. show that In the month of October they shipped tbeir goods into eight different States and Territories and to 107 points. The floor market is in such an unsettled con dition that all the mills in this locality are run ning light. The Acme Milliog Company is run ning but one of its cilia. Tbe workmen of the Sinker & Davis Company are day and night enraged largely on natural gas supplies, which tbe company will send to Fern, Anderson and Kokomo. The Citizens' Street-railway Company !s negotiating for ground in Fall creek bottoms, between Illinois aod Meridian streets, ou which to erect stables and a car repair shop. The Indianapolis Gray Iron Foundry Com pany is negotiating for additional ground for the purpose of enlarging the works and establishing a foundry for the casting cf car wheels. The Indianapolis Natural-gas Company reached North Indianapolis with one of its mains on Saturday last, and this morning tbe Udell wcodsnware-workswill begin using gas for fuel. H G Atkins & Co. this week commence the manufacture of a new pattern of cross eut saw, patterned aftar a design by Mr. AUina, It bas been given the name of the ''Dexter Lanee Cross-cut The Indianapolis Novelty and Knitting Com pany is enlarging its facilities. In the beginning only a half dozen girls were employes there. Now there are thirty, and it is proposed to in crease this force. Last week was a busy one with Chandler & Taylor. Tbey shipped a ear-load of engines to Oregon, another to Colorado, and a third ear load to Arkansas. On tbe latter were two engines and two saw-mills. G & A. Potts & Co., manufacturers of brick machinery, last week shipped ooe of tbeir larg est sized disintegrators and brick macbibeg to Taeoma, W. T.; another to Caledonia, Mich., and a third mil ba shipped this week to Knox vllle, Tenn. The J. B. Alfree Company is putting in the machinery and flour-mill complete for a new mill at Spencer. Is will have a capacity of 75 barrels per day, and the company is also remod eling a mill at that point, increasing ita capacity to 150 barrelj per day. The Indianapolis Gas Company last znonlh turned out 47.870 bushels of eoke, 17.000 bushels more than at tbe corresponding period of 1S37. This month it expeets to produce 60,000 bushels, and in December 100,000 bushels. The priee of the article has been dropped with a view of en couraging people who have not natural gas to use coke more extensively. Nov. 1 the Indianapolis elevators contained 513,859 bushels of grain, against 533,510 for ta corresponding data in 1837. Tbe Indianapolis Market Report shows that the loeal supply is 414.012 bushels ef wheat, against 257,550 for the same week in 1SS7; 3.000 bushels of corn, against C5.6C6 last year; 91,793 bushels of oats, against 205,500, and 5,024 bushela of rye, against 4,803 last year. Dsan Bros, have just shipped a big pump to the Louisville Oas Company. This is tbe second pump sent to this company. The two pomps have a combined capacity of 1,500 gallons per minute. The brothers are making a mining pump of solid brsss for a Kentucky coal mine. Tbe brass water cylinder will weigh 4.000 pounds. This will be the largest brass casting ever made in this State. A business man from Memphis, Tenn., was in the city last week, endeavoring to get some In dianapolis capitalists interested in the manu facture of a eotton-tie device. A shrewd manu facturer who thought at first it was a good thing, found that there was no duty on cotton ties, and that English manufacturers were making and shipping them here at less cost than they can be made in this country. The inventor of the tie, after that, was givea the cold shoulder. An oScial of an Indianapolis road remarked Saturday that tbe Journal a eorrect in saying that tbe roads centering here should purchase more o! tbeir railroad supplies here, and he was gratified to learn that a loeal manufactory of frogs aod railroad crossings was to be estab lished. There is no better point in the country, he said, for a car-wbel foundry and oar-axle manufactory than Indianapolis. Such an es tablishment would eall tbe attention of the rail road purchasing agents to Indianapolis, and they would then purchase snpolies of all kinds here to a much greater extent than they now do. An Uiniuut Geologist. Prof. James Hall, of Albany, X. T., was in the city yesterday, the guest of Prof. Collett. He leaves for Springfield, 111., this morning. Prof. Hall bas been in Lexington, Ky.; at Louisville, Craw fords ville, Delphi and Waldroo, visiting private and college collections of fos sils, and making selections to be used In com pleting the eleventh volume of the New York Geolorieal Survey. Prof. Hall first collected at the fails of the Ohio in 1841. and regrets that the high stage of water prevented bis visiting these old coral reefs again. He baa been for the lasttwo weeks tbe guest of Mr. Geo. W. Green, of Kew Albanr, of whose knowledge of paleo zoic corals he epeaks in tbe highest terms; of Prof. Coulter, at Crawfordsville; of Dr. Wash, burn, at Waldron, and of other local collectors and geologist in tbe several places he baa vis ited. Tbe Professor is still bale aod hearty, a model of the scientific and cultured gentleman in bodv, mind and snirit. He will not be able to return to New York in time for the e'ection, but states that he did yeoman service la the crest campaign which elected Tinoeeacoe President in 1840. He remarked that if all tbe local geol ogists in Indiana were to contribute their col: lections to a common museum it would tran scend in value any college or museum collection in tbe Mississippi valley. But bo has been able. by eorre8iKnQenee and exchange, to get most of the local finds int the reports of New York, so that they have not been lost to science. This Week' Amusement. Mr. George A. Booker, a clever comedian, and Miss Maud Leigb, an attractive sonbrette, are the stars of the eompaoy that is to present "Fair Play at tbe Park all this week, begin ning with the matinee this afternoon. The piece is a sensational comedy-drama, foil of fon and excitement, and the company is well spoken ef. It will run all week, alterooon and evening. One of the greatest of curiosities, the Edson baby, whieh is twelve mooths old and weighs less thsn two pounds, will be oa exhibition at the Eden Mute all this week, together with t'eauuey Morton, Indiana's rat boy, the Fij;. Cannibals, and other new features. An Order Sucoeaafuliy Carried Oat. The political parade, whieh oissed off so peace ably hire Saturday night, was a surprise to many. Fewer arrests were mad than have been en a Saturday night for some time, and thia faet is do, in a large reelect, to tbe clos ing of tbe saloon, by order of Superintendent Travis, immediately after the parades were over. At the eveaieg roll-call tbe superintend ent instructed the officers to order the saloon to elose aa soon as the processions disbanded. This was done, aod but few of the saloon-keepers ob- jeetea to i&e oxutr. AFFAIRS OF THE RAILWAYS. The Car Stovttinent Still Lessening. The train records for tbe weei ending Nor. S, show that 631 fewer loaded cars were received and forwsrded than in the week preceding, 2.3S5 fewer cars than in the corresponding week of 1SS7, but compared with 1SS6, an increase is shown this year of 515 loaded ears. While the exhibit of the week closing on Saturday last is not as favorable as might be desired the fault does not 11 in the shortage of freight to be xnoTod, but iu the great difficulty in securing cars. One road, whieh last week handled at tals point 470 loaded cars would have leaded double that number if tbey eonld have been secured. Eastward tbe tonnage is largely made up of flour, lumber, provisions and live stock. and shipments of these artioles last week were considerably in excess of those of the week pre ceding. One of the lines is also forwarding a good deal of cotton. Westward a considerable decrease in tonnage is shown, not ia first- class freights, bat in anthracite coal, coke and machinery. The shipments of merchandise to Western and Southwestern points continue to be heavy, and O same is true of furvuture to Pacifia eoast points. A very respectable ton nage of frlfhfe ttsr MitUa ia naliinf watt wa the Van J alia and tbe Indianapolis & St. Louis ro&ua, ana it is ssid to oe earned at gooa paying rates. North-and-soutn roads are not doing the through bosiress they were at tbe correspond ing period last year, but this is dne to the yellow feVeF mp.r hilh htl ffantaii ffftioVlt. wall aa passenger business. During the last few days t Al . ... eeuiuern pine, ror car-wonts ana otnsr msoa factories, which has ben delaved. has hacrnn tn come north. When it is stated that 55 per esot or the business of Southern roe!s Is that of carrying lumber, tbe value of this business to such roada is better understood. Local traffic bas been light, as might be expected, when busi ness is bo interfered with by political excitement About the city freight depots it bas been un usually quiet the last week, but a few days will change matters, and then platform men and Clerks will be worltinff orer-tima. The live-stock traffic begins to improve, and tbe new corn crop, within the next ten days, will beein 4 a a a. - .. & a. . i a rr a t w cum to m marast j ce nog crop, aunougn lighter than last year, will make business lively for the next eight weeks.

The Louisville, New Albany & Chicago road last week hauled more loaded ears at Indianapo lis than in any weak in its history. In the month of October the Vandalia brought into Indianapolis 5,004 loaded cars, against 4,8fJG iu the corresponding period of 1S37. The Bee-line is steadily increasing its east- bound business, last week forwarding 1,252 loaded car. The C, St L & P. forwarded U20 loaded cars, which Is a good showing for that road. There were transferred over the Belt road In the month of October 54,007 cars,, against 5'J. 493 in tbe corresponding month of 1SS7, 47,856 in 18S6, 44.C93 in 18S5, 40,537 in 18S4, 30.070 in 1SS3, and 2a. 186 in 1882, the year tint tbe yards were opnd for business. In the month of October there were handled by Belt road engines 4,050 ear-loads of live stock, against 4.013 car-loads in tbe corresponding month of 1887, a decrease this year of 8G3 cars. Tbe effects of the short crops of last year were more seriously felt last month than in any pre ceding month of tbe present year. In the month of October there arrived and de parted at the Union Station 3,413 regular trains and 203 special trains, making a total of 3,621 trains. On these trains were hauled 28,900 coaches. In the corresponding month of 1887 there arrived and departed at the Union Depot 3,251 trains, hauling 24.737 coaches, an increase this year of 370 trains and 2,253 more coaches. The increase in freight trsffis on the western division of the C., I.. St. L & G. road is some thing remarkable.

Between Evansville and Elnora he will use what is known as the Evansville & Indianapolis road. The new line will extend from Elnora to Richmond, a distance of 150 miles, and it passes through the best eoal terri tory in tiis State, as well as through some heavy timber and extensive stone quarries. The company has now $300,000 in subsidies and much of tbe right or way secured. it expects to get another $100,000 in subsidies, and to ex perience bat little trouble in seeurinc tbe bal ance of tbe right of way. Mr. Mackey proposes to build the road on $3,UC0 per mile. It will connect with the C, I., St. L.'& C. at Greens- borg, and it is claimed will make a shorter route between Evansville and Cincinnati than any now in existence. President Mackey says that tbe work is to oe pusnea vigorously. it is al.o said that Msckey's scheme Is to extend the Evansville & Indianapolis road through to In dianapolis, h bavin ctven up all hope of get ting into Indianapolis over the Indianapolis, Decatur & Western, or any other line than the one originally surveyed.

Plans of the Sonday-School Assertion Out lined at Its Meeting Last Xight, A good-sized audience of persons Interested in the work assembled last night at the Indianapo lis Sunday-school Association meeting at tbe First Baptist Church. After short devotional exercises conducted by Dr. Jeffery, an address was made by tbe president cf th association, Mr. E. W. Half or d. who gave a short history of it, aod bow the plan eame to be con ceived. He outlined the work that the association hoped to accomplish. He hoped that all psstors, Sunday-school superintendents and teaehers would make a long pull and a strong pull, and a pull altogether to make the associa tion a success. The unification in the last twenty-five years In Christian work, and especially In Sunday school work, he said, bas been won derful. The value of international lessons as an educator has been fully demonstrated as the years passed "We have one hundred Sunday schools In Indianapolis," said he, "and if we can get them to come together once a week to make a study of Sunday-school work there will be a decided advancement of such work in the city The modern idea of Chris tianity is that it is for the pres ent life as much as for the life to come. Citizens pay taxes and are at a great expense to maintain our system of common schools, and they ought to be willing to do what they can toward making the Sunday-school work more perfect" Dr. Gilbert was introduced and made an ad dress upon 'Th Society's Work Stated." The object of tbe association, he said, is to stimulate and train Sunday school teachers so that they may be able to do more and better work in the Sunday-schools; to study th Scripture and lessons together to the better knowledge of the subjects sought to be taught, and to ascertain the best mode of teaching them. Tbe plan of work is a union teachers' meeting to bs held weekly in the lecture-room of the Second Presbyterian Church at 11 o'clock a. M. The teachers to be divided into two classes, the first elass to con tinue one bour, under the instruction of the speaker, aftr which a class of teachers of primary classes will continue one hour, under the lead of Miss Kirby. The first thing taught would be the narrative. All who bad studied tbe Scriptures knew that the correct idea of tbe narrative of the lesions eould not be got in tbe first or seeond reading. It is the frame-work, the skeleton npon which the lesson is built It also includes a comparison of ideas; the meeting of mind with mind; an intellectual ex change where all may contribute ideas ana each take away his own and the ideas of others. Further, it is proposed to create a largemers of heart Earnest Christian work may be done sina-ly or by several people associated, but it is in large numbers working together and toward a common end that earnestness and enthusiasm are most often developed. It is contemplated, too, to train the teachers in a correct method of teaching. Two teacher' may be successful and have different methods of teaobing, yet each be benefited by consulta tion with each other by a comparison of notes. Imparting knowledge is an art. Question ing a pupil to find nut what he knows is an art The teachers, by associating to gether, will be le to learn new methods, which tbey can try. There will also be a spiritual up lifting. An extension. of interest in such mat ters as will have a decided influence for good in the whole community and in every depart ment of Christian work in the city. Th principal elass will meet next Saturday at 11 A M., and will be open to all pastors, super intendents and teaehers. and to all others who wish to study the Scriptures. Toe second class will meet at 12 o'clock. If there are more than enough to fill the lecture-room the auditorium will be used. On the first Friday evening in December will begin a eourse of preliminary training for teachers, and there will be three classes first, those who are teachers; second, young people who expect to become teachers: third, people who think they are not qualified to teacb, but desire to learn. The course of study will bei 1. The Bible as a book, skcred history, etc. 2. Technical course, the oriein and history of the Sundav-scbooL The art of teaching. 3. Prac tical Department 4. A prescribed course of reading. Tbe whole course will require two years to complete it and diplomas will be awarded. Another object of tbe association is tbo divis ion of tbe territory of the city between tbe churches, and a thorough canvass by them to the end that do children may be left out. Re marks were also made by Dr. Haines, Dr. Jeffery and Dr. McLeod. and Dr. RoodthsUr, In a closing address, urged that the I cburrhss he united in tbe matter and that as no work of th kind could go on without money that people should give liberally to it A large part of the congregation present by a rising vote signified the'.r intention'of be ing present at the first meeting next Saturday.

Stealing General Harrison's Fence. Indianapolis fpecial. Several weeks ago General Harrison suffered the loss of his picket fence at tbe hands of the visitors. Every little article about the yard ba sine disappeared, and it seemed as thouch no material had been left upon which tbe rehc bunter of th future could work. But one loose brick in tbe General' pavad sidewalk proved fatal to this theory. It furnished a starting point and now tbe General is threatened with the loss of bis pavement, serious inroads hav ing already been made anon it Is Cuba a woman never loses her maiden name.
