COMMITTEE OF ONE JIUNDRED.
A Democrat Thinks the Organization Has Not
Fulfilled Its Original Purpose.
The executive committee of the commit
tee of one hundred met last evening in tho
office of Wm. Henderson. The report of
the sub-committee relating to the election
cases was not complete and on motion fur
ther time was given to finish the work.
Tho matter of paying back to tho donors
the money contributed for the purpose of
detecting and punishing violators of the
election law was talked over and action
deferred. Nathan Morris thought the com
mittee ought to reach out all over the
State and intimated that it had not done
its full duty in neglecting to push the re
cent prosecutions in the United States
Court. The chairman, A. B. Conduitt, said
that it was distinctly understood that this
committee had nothing to do with any
crimes committed nutsido of Marion county,
and Judge Martindale remarked that tho
committee was sufficiently represented in
Jndge Claypool, who had previously prose
cuted the talley-sheet cases, for which tho
committee had paid him 500.
Mr. Morris appearea to be much dis
tressed about an alleged letter written bv
Colonel Dudley. Captain Kit ter remarked
that he had looked into that matter, and
the residence of the person or the name of
the person to whom it was addressed had
neither of them been ascertained, and
under such circumstances action would bo
fruitless. Silo T. llowen asked, as he was
going away, to be relieved from the sub
committee, suggesting that Nathan Morris
be placed upon the committee in his stead.
I will have to decline to serve on that
committee," said Mr. Morris, hastily. l
would like to be off this committee."
Judge Martindale also declined, and the
sub-committee, ns finally arranged, con
sists of Cant. E. F. Kitier. W. C, Griffith
and Gen. John Coburu. This committ
tee will examine the status of the
cases against those who are alleged
to have violated the election laws
at the last general election in Marion
county. Mr. Morris made a remark as not
being satislied with the work of the com
mittee, to which Judgu Martindalo replied
that nothing had been presented to the
committee; that there were no bribery
cases. As to the suggestion of censure of
the committee he said that it was more se
verely persecuted during the prosecution of
Sim Coy than it ha been since, and those
convictions were the beat vindication tho
committee had. The committee then ad
journed to meet oa Tuesday night two
weeks hence.

LAST OF THE BRIBERY CASES
A Probable Disagreement in One -with
Verdicts of Acquittal in Two Others.
Evidence Against Heller, and as to Broch
the Prosecuting 'Witness Appears in a Bad
Plight What Befell Mr. Burke.
The last of the election cases in which
bribery was charged were disposed of in
the United States Court yesterday. The
argument in the Bingham case was con
cluded in the forenoon, and during the aft
ernoon James Heller, of Elwood, Madison
.county, and Robert Uroek, of Riverside
postoflice. Fountain county, were acquitted
as soon as the government had submitted
its testimony, there being no evidence at
all against either of the accused. The en
tire forenoon was consumed by tho Bing
ham case. The defendant introduced a
great deal of testimony to the effect that he
bore an excellent reputation for honesty in
the county in which he lives. The argu
ment began at 11 o'clock, and continued
until noon. District Attorney Chambers
epoke for more than an hour, and urged
conviction on the ground that it was tho
intention of the accused to influence
tho votes of those who received
money from him, - although they under
stood it was to pay them for tho time they
spent in working for the Republican ticket.
Shortly after 12 o'clock the jury received
its instructions and retired for consulta
tion. At 2 o'clock the case against Jesso Heller
was called. Considerable trouble was ex
perienced in securing a jury, and quite a
number of Indianapolis business men were
summoned, from whom tho remainder of
the panel was selected. One of the last
sent in was W. H. Burke, who keeps a cigar
store on Pennsylvania street. He was irri
tated at being called away from his busi
ness, and in answer to a question of the de
fendant's attorney 6aid he knew something
about the case, and thought his opinion as
to its merits already formed. Judge Woods
consider this an attempt to escape service
on the jury, and in questioning Burke soon
learned that he did not know anything
about the facts involved. The judge.then
directed the marshal to placo Burke under
arrest for contempt. "You ought to be in
dicted for perjury," said the judge. "I will
release you on a bond of $100, to appear be
fore me in thirty days to answer for con
tempt of court. I want it understood that
no man can come in here and trifle with
this court as you have." Mr. Bnrke looked
as if hp would be willing to serve a month
on a jury if the charge against him was
withdrawn, but he said nothing, and gave
bond for his appearance.
The jury was finally obtained, and the
district attorney stated the charge made in
the indictment. It was alleged, he said,
that Mr. Heller had paid Wm. Davis $15
for his vote. The money, it was charged,
was paid in a drug store on the afternoon of
the election. John Duncan, who repre
sented the defendant, in his opening state
ment, said that it would be shown that Mr.
Davis had always been a Republican, and
that he voted the Republican ticket at the
last election. Mr. Heller, he said, did pay
Mr. Davis $15 on election day, but it was
money ho owed him. Davis was a black
smith in Elwood, and had done considera
ble work for the defendant. On the day of
the election Mr. Davis was out collecting,
and Mr. Heller then paid him the amount
he owed. Adam H. Melrose, "William H.
Anstill, William Heimbaucjh and Wm. Myre
land were witnesses for the prosecution ex
Assistant District At torney Bailey had rec
ommended, and one after another they were
called to the stand. Not one of them
knew a thing about the case,
and thoy said they so tola
tho grand jurors when brought before
them. Mr. Davis said he had lived in El
wood for sixteen years, and always voted
the Republican ticket, with the exception
of once or twice, when he voted for some
Greeubackers. He began voting the Repub
lican ticket when Grant was a candidate
for President the first time. Continuing,
he said that some time in the afternoon of
election day he met Mr. Heller and asked
him if he could not pay him something on
the bill he owed him, $17.&0. for work done.
The defendant went into Willett's drug
store, borrowed the money and paid him
$15. Witness said he had voted before he
asked Mr. Heller for the money, and that
the payment in no manner influenced his
voto. Witness belonged to Republican clubs
during the campaign, and had said re
peatedly that he was going to vote the Re
publican ticket straight.
'That's tho government's case, your
Honor," said District Attorney Chambers.
"There is no case herot" replied the judge.
"It may either be dismissed; or, if the de
fendant desires, a verdict of not guilty may
be returned." Mr. Duncan asked for a. ver
dict, and the jury handed one of not guilty,
without leaving their box.
The last case, that against Robert Broch.
was then called. The indictment charged
good doal of interesting information, tend
ing to show how so many innocent men
were indicted by BaileyTs grand jury
was brought out. The attorney for Brocn
in his opening statement, said that he
would be able to show that Mr. Beadle's
vote was not purchased, aud that he never
voted anything during his life but a Re
publican ticket. "We expect this case, if
it goes on to a termination," said the attor
ne3 "to bloom like a llower of not very
fragrant odor. We expect to show that it
was begun in malice, and we will impeach
the evidence of tho prosecuting witness,
and 6how that he wan the instigator of the
prosecution. We will declaro that he said
before the election was held that he would
send Mr. Broch to the penitentiary, and
that this' case is but tho outcome of his
shameless malice."
Joseph Williams, the prosecuting wit
ness, testified that on election day he kept
a refreshment-stand near the voting place,
and that, in the afternoon, he saw Broch
and Beadle standing about thirty feet from
his place. He listened to their conversa
tion, and heard Broch say, "I will make it
$5 better, and give yon a month's house
rent, if you will vote our way." He then
saw Broch band Beadle a bill, and the two
walked away toward the polls. The wit
ness was subjected to a lengthy cross-examination,
and got his story very badly
mixed. He first said there was no obstruc
tion between him and where liroch and
Beadle stood, and then he admitted that
he said before tho grand jury that Broch
and Beadle were behind an oak tree when
he heard them talking.
"Did you not send a letter to tho district
attorney instigating this prosecution!"
asked the attorney for the defense.
"Yes. sir; I did."
"Did yon not say to Marshal Beems, of
Attica, that you did not know who insti
gated this prosecution, and that you
thought Stephen Cunningham did itP
"I don't remember what I said to him."
"You are unfriendly to Mr. Brocht"
4I am. I have been his enemy for two
years or more."
"You have repeatedly made declarations
against Mr. Broch!''
"I guess I have."
"Did yon not say that when you got
through with him that ho wonld not have
money enough to buy a nigger his supper?"
"Yes. sir, I did."
Williams admitted making other threats
against Mr. Broch, and also that he himself
had pleaded guilty in the United States
court a year ago to selling liquor without a
government license, and that he had been
lined on numerous occasions in Fountain
county for violations of the liquor law.
James M. Williams, a fourteen-year-old
son of the above witness, was next called.
He was in his father's stand at the timo
when it isalleged Broch purchased Beadle's
vote. His father had evidently at
tempted to compel him to corroborate
his testimony, and the boy was o
embarrassed that he eouM not mako
the jury hoar what he said. Ho did not see
Mr. Broch pay Mr. Beadle any money.but ho
heard Beadle say ho was going to get all tho
money out of the Republicans he could. On
cross-examination he admitted that he said
only a week ago that ho did not know any
thin? about the case. Stephen Lock was
called as a witness for tho government, but
he said he did not know a thing about tho
case, and did not know why he was sum
moned. Mr. Beadle then told his story. He said
ho had always been a Republican, that Mr,
tnatiie nought the vote or .Joseph Ueadle
for 5. It required jnst twenty-live minutes
to dispose of the matter, but in that time a
Broch did not pay him anything on
election day or at any other time
for his vote, and never o tiered to
pay him anything. He denied having any
coversation with Broch about house rent,
and said no conversations occurrrd as de
tailed by Williams and his sou. He said
he bad never voted any other than tho Re
publican ticket since Grant was a candi
date for President tho first time. J. S.
Hatch, also recommended by -Bailey as a
government witness, said he did not know
a thing about. tho matter.
Mr. Broch testified briefly. 'denying the
conversation alluded to by Williams. He
said he did not buy Mr. Beadle's vote, and
did not attempt to do so, and gave him
no monev that day. The defense
had a large number of witnesses
by whom they proposed to impeach Will
iams, and show that the indictment was
the result of malice, but the judge thought
it was unnecessary to go further, lie
asked the jurors if they were ready to re
turn a verdict, and they said they wen. It
was. of course, "not guilty." Mr. Broch
says he will probably proceed against Will
iams for perjury, and he thinks he can
easily send him to the penitentiary if he
concludes to push the case.
Marshal Schell Convicted.
Charles J. Schell, who shot and killed
William McManis, was yesterday found
guilty of murder in the third degree and
sentenced to two years' imprisonment in
the State prison. Prosecuting Attorney
Mitchell completed his argument early in
the afternoon, and after receiving a rather
long and detailed instruction from Judge
Irviu, tho jury withdrew. After being out
fifty minutes, a verdict was returned. Four
ballots were taken, the first standing eight
for conviction and four for acquittal. The
oher ballots were: Nine for conviction
and three for acquittal; eleven for convic
tion and one for acquittal, and finally a
unanimous vote for conviction. The pen
alty was fixed at the minimum as pre
scribed by law.
Schell's crime was thought at the time by
many to be the outcome of the too hasty use
of his revolver. His victim had been
drinking heavily on the night of March 16,
in West Indianapolis, and in John Ar
necker's saloon he became eomewhat loud
in his conduct. Schell, as town marshal,
was sent for, and in trying to control Mc
Manis tho two became involved in a dis
pute. Blows were exchanged, when Mc
Manis, breaking; away from Schell, picked
up a bowlder and hurled it at
the officer. At this the latter drew
his revolver and fired two shots
the last one taking effect. McManis died
in a short time, and Schell at once gave
himself np to the county authorities. Tho
murdered man was a drayman, thirty-fivo
years of age, and left a wife and several
children. The verdict of the jury yester
dav created some surprise, as it was gener
ally thought it would be for acquittal. The
sentiment in West Indianapolis was about
evenly divided, tho feeling against Schell
amoug certain classes being extremely bit
ter. Disposing: of Divorce Cases.
Divorce cases were again very plentiful
in tho courts yesterday. Judge Taylor
granted tho legal separations of Marietta
Jacobs and John Jacobs, on the charge of
abandonment preferred against the latter,
giving the custody of their children to the
wife. The complaints of Georgia Shearer
and Densmore H. Shearer, Geneva C. Baker
and Wm. II. Baker, and Martha B. Kinsey
and Henry Kinsey were dismissed. In
Judge Howe's room a divorce was granted
Rufus F. Pearl from Lenora J. Pearl for
abandonment, and Ella C. Ellis from David
R. Ellis, for like cause. The case of Jennie
S. Dierdortf against Benjamin 1 Dierdorli"
was dismissed for want of prosecution.
Judge Walker's only settlement of domestic
troubles was between Millard F. Price and
Maggie J. Price. A divorce was granted on
charges of unfaithfulness against tho latter.
A Question of Title.
Eliza C. Hendricks, widow of Thomas A.
Hendricks, yesterday appeared in Judge
Howland's court in a litigation against the
First National Bank, to quiet the title to
some property in this city. The suit in
volves the brick block on the comer of
Pennsylvania and South streets, aud it is
claimed that at one time the Massachusetts
Mutual Insurance Company, with Mr. Hen
dricks, held a mortgage on it. In 1SS1 the
matter was before tho courts, and a decis
ion was then given in favor of Mr. Hen
dricks, but owing to the fact that the First
National now claims to have a prior lien
on its value, the case is up for final settle
ment. Notes from the Dockets.
F. A. Gobin, who was sentenced to the
northern penitentiary last December for
stealing a mail-pouch, was released by the
United States commissioner, yesterday,
under tho poor-convict act.
Nellie Maud Weddell yesterday filed a
complaint for divorce from George H.
Weudell, to whom she was married Sept.
23, 18S5. She charges him with having an
ungovernable temper, which has led to acts
of great cruelty on his part toward herself
and their only child, George, who is two
years ot age.
Eva Krcener, a married woman, forty-one
years of age. living at 122 Dunlap street,
was yesterday adjudged insane. Since Jan.
1, this year, she has been laboring under
the impression that she is continually con
versing with Christ and by Him has been
personally instructed to fast. Onnora
Blitou, who was under treatment at the
lusane Hospital from July 9, 1887, until
Oct. 14, 1887, was recommitted yesterday.

The Wlien's Annual Opening.
The doors of the When clothing-house
were closed to customers a part of the day
yesterday, the entiro force being kept busy
in preparations for the first annual recep
tion during the afternoon and evening.
The house was first opened in this city in
1875, two rooms being sufficiently commo
dious to accommodate the entire stock on
hand. Gradually tho business increased,
until now the store covers an interior of
what is known as tho When Block, ISO feet
square, with a frontage of fourteen con
secutive street numbers. It was in celebra
tion of tho culmination of this growth that
the reception was given 3esterday. In the
afternoon the doors were thrown open
to ladies only, and over 5,000 visited tho
various departments. Special souvenirs, in
the shape of neatly bound volumes of "New
York Illustrated," were presented to each
lady. In the evening a general reception was
given, and the attendance of tho afternoon
was more than doubled. Miller's orchestra
furnished music from an elevated platform,
and the whole apartment was elaborately
decorated with flowers and hanging bird
cages. It is the intention of manager
Brush to continue the custom of giving
theiryearly displays of his stock and bus
iness conveniences to the public.

DO WE BOOM?
"We do. VTliy do wo boom! Because
we were first. We were the first houso
in our line to introduce n passenger ele
vator, thus relieving ladies of tho ex
hausting stair climbinpr. We were tho
first in any line to clean the public
street so that our citizens could enjoy
the lino new asphalt pavement in its pu
rity, as the block where our store stands.
We were tho first to create a 'I)ark
Room," where lino work was displayed,
and we are the first to create tho 'Orien
tal Room," which is as far ahead of tho
old "Dark Room" as that was ahead of
what had not been done before it.
Come seo the Oriental Room, and wo
will all boom together.
