PLACED TIES ON THE THICK.
Bobbers Attempt to Wreck an la E. t W. Ex
press Train and Ditch an Accommodation.
Lima, O., May 4. An attempt was made
last night to wreck the west-bound express
on the Lake Erie &. Western road, doe at
Lima at 9:25 p. m. A heavy shipment of
money was on the train and that was what
the wreckers were after. The attempt
was made about three-quarters of a mile
west of Faxtoa, one of the most desolate
pieces of territory along the line. At the
foot of a grade, near' a curve, an ob
struction of ties spiked together was
placed across the track. The wouldbe
robbers lay in ambush. The express train
was behind time and the ripht of way was
given to a second-class passenser train.
This train came against the ob
struction and the engine and two
coaches were .ditched. No one
was injured, bnt great excitement
prevailed. A heavy freiKbt tram was fol
lowing the accommodation closely. The
tfaaman started back, and bad proceeded
about one hundred feet when he wis sud
denly confronted by the highwayman with
revolvers, and compelled to return to the
wreck. The robbers thought it was his in
tention to nag the express, which they bad
planned to rob. The hrakemau notified tbo
train crew, who started in a body, and
were not molested. After stopping the
freight the alarm wan sent over the wire to
both Pax Son and Peoria. Great excitement
prevailed at both places, and a posse was
promptly organized for the purpose of
scouring the surrounding country iu search
oi the fugitives.

Debate on the German Armj Bill
31 It. COUOi:ilTS AKGUUEST.
Th American Lawyer Scores Several Points
for Uncle Mam's Side of the Jseal Dispute.
Pari?, May 4. Mr. F. R. Condert con
linnedhia argumentin behalf of tie United
States to-day bofore the Behring sea tribu
nal of arbitration. Mr. Condert analyzed
the joint report of the commissioners ap
pointed by Great Britain and the United
States to ascertain the faots In relation to
seal life In Dehnng sea and the measures
necessary for its proper protection and pre
vention. Mr. Condert nrged that the
pelagic sealers, in killing a gravid female,
destroyed three animals, and then fre
quently did not obtain a skin as a result of
this slaughter, the creature that the sealers
slew often sinking into the sea and thus es
caping them. Mr. Condert humorously de
scribed the refusal of the female seals to
suckle pnps that had been orphaned
through the slaughter of tbeir mothers by
the pelagio sealers, and caused consider
able merriment among the listeners. There
was a freauent exchange of repartee be
tween llaron lie CouroeJ, president of the
tribunal, and Mr. Coadert.
Mr. Coudort proceeded to prove that
there could be no commingling of the seal
herds of Alaska with those of Asiatic
Russia. Furriers easily distinguished the
Alaskan from the Knssian skius and
chanted higher prices for the Alaskan.
Mr. Coudert read affidavits in support of
tbeso assertions, lie enlarged upon the
natural history of the seal, replying with
admirable readiness to a aeries of questions
addressed to him by the members of the
tribunal of arbitration. In response to a
question by liarou De Courcel. Mr. Condert
said that Copper island seals caught by
the pelacic sealers came to the market as
having been caught in Japan.
The- British counsel exolaimed in chorus:
'That is quito wrong."
Mf. Coudert answered: "We have ample
proof that it's trne. We Lave proot also
that three-fourths of the total number of
akinn sold arc those of females." Mr.
Coudert read evidence in support of his
statement.
Lord llannon, one of the British arbi
trators, asked: "During the preparation
oi thw skins is any body's attention called
to the distinction between male and female
bkinif"
Mr. Coudert continued to read affidavits
in snppoTt of bis statement, whereupon the
president. Baron De Cdurcol, said: "Lord
llannen'e question is unanswered. I sup
pose nobody could answer itf"
Mr. Condert If nobody can, then I can
not, bnt I should not like to admit by si
lence my inability to answer the question.
Mr. Coudert went on to show that the sex
of the seals naturally presented itself to
those engaged in preparing the skins. Mr.
Condert quoted the French furrier, Kevil
lou, as B&yirjg that the sex could not be
distinguished from the skina. but, be saul,
he would produoe overwhelming proof to
the contrary.
iteeurrinr to the question of the terri
torial limits within which the seals wero
caught, Mr. Condert contrasted the state
ments of a British sealing 'caDtam to the
etiect that the animals were never found
ten miles from land, with the evidence of
another British witness to the e fleet that
he bad found seals at distances of between
ten and 150 miles from the coast.
WAIt3I DCI1ATK ON THE ARMY II ILL.
IXerr Rtobter Scores Ctprlri and Ilia 3Ien-
u re The Itelchtng to lie Dissolved.
BriiLiN. May 4. Tbo discussion of the
army bill was continued in the Reichstag
to-day. Herr Kichter, leader of tho
Deutsche Freisinnige party, declared that
the party would not accept the compro
mise agreed upon by Freiherr Von Hnene,
the chief objection being that the conces
sion of the two years' active service limit
would be subject to t hoi good will of the
government, which would be enabled after
a period of five years to demand a new in
crease of the army and thereby to comDel
additional concessions on the part of the
Keicbstap. Herr Kichter vigorously as
sailed Chancellor Caprivi for attempting,
as Herr Kichter described it. to tyran
nize over tho Reichstaa by parad
ing the opinions of military experts.
Herr Kichter protested In vehement lan
guage against what be characterized as the
slighting remarks uttered by Chancellor
Caprivi regarding the laborious studies
which the committee of the Reichstag on
the army bill had devoted to the question.
The theory of the Imperial Chancellor,
said Herr Kichter. to the eiiect that the
military strength of Germany should be a
great as the population of Germany per
mitted was untenable. Ittneaut a doub
ling of the military forces of Germany,
and it meant the potting of the empire on
the high road to being militarized, as Prus
sia already was, Loud applause. "Yet
Prussia," cod tin ued Herr Kichter, "Is nn
ble to provide a lew hundred thousands
for educational and ecientiuo purposes,
while the military swallows a million."
Here the speaker was again interrupted
by loud applause on the part of the oppo
nents of the army bill, accompanied by up
roar and cries of dissent on the part of its
supporters. Faoing those who dissented
from his utterances, Herr Kichter ex
claimed: "What is the ue of patriotism to
a man with nothing to eat!"
Upon the conclusion of Herr Richter's at
tack upon the army bill Chanoellor Von
Caprivi. who had listened calmly to the
Freisinnige leader's arguments against the
measure, proceeded to the tribune and de
livered a calm and onpassionate reply to
his opponont. The Chancellor declared
that the increase in the peace edective
asreed upon was absolutely essential to
safeguard the empire. The" government,
he said, would adopt the proposal of Frei
herr Von Huene and would use it as a
plank in their electoral platform should the
dissolution of 'the Reichstag become una
voidable. Herr BebeL the Social Democratio lead
er, repeated and emphasized the arguments
of Herr Kichter. Herr hebel solemnly
warned Chancellor Caprivi against what
be termed a revolution from above. "If."
exclaimed Herr BebeL "the government
should attempt such a revolution, the peo
ple of Germany will quickly reply with a
revolution from below.''
After tho debate in the Reichstag was ad
journed numerous party caucuses were
held. Chancellor Caprivi went away from
the session in good humor, as secoders from
the Dentsohe Freissinnige party continue
inclined to vote with Freiherr on Hnene,
and if he can seoure twelve votes irom the
Center, the Cbaucellor counts upon a small
majority for the bill. On the otner band
the Alsatian Deputies have arrived in full
force, vowing that they will voto against
the bill.
At the meeting of the Bnndezrath. or
Federal Council, to-dav. Chancellor Caprivi
announced tht the Kmperor hud ignd
the rescript !isiolving the Reichstag, and
was only awaiting the rejection of the
army bill to promulgate the rescript.

number about one hundred persons, whilo
rumor gives their number all the way from
five hundred to seven hundred men. This
letter was the first official information re
ceived by the State Department with re
gard to the Cnban trouble. Secretary
Gresham said tnis morning that no tele
grams bad come to him to-day and h had

CABLYLE HARRIS MUST DIE
The Wife-Poisoner's Application for
Clemency Denied by Governor Flower.
Sentence nf Electrocution Will Be Carried Out
Kext Week, Unless a Respite Is Granted
How Harris Received the News.
Aluany. K. Y May 4. Governor Flower
has denied the application for clemency for
Carlylo W. Harris and Harris will bo elec
trocuted during the week beginning Mon
day next. The Governor, after reviewing
the important points of evidence, concludes
as follows: "This inquiry into the case by
the examination of witnesses and other
wise, leaves no doubt in my mind as to my
official dnty. I have endeavored to give to
the application for clemency that impar
tial and conscientious study which the fate
of any human life demands and which the
popular interest in this case certainly calls
for. But bo far as jury and court oould de
termine Harris was guilty of a heinous
crime, revolting in its conception and in
the depravity of its perpetrator, and no
satisfactory considerations have been pre
sented to the executive to justify his inter
vention in the execution of the sentence.
The application for clemency is therefore
denied,"
Harris Receives the News Calmly.
SinoSino, N. Y., May 4. -At 1 o'clock
this afternoon Warden Durston received
message from the Governor's private sec
retary saying that the Governor would not
interfere in the Harris case. Warden
Durston immediately went to the prison to
notify Harris. As the warden approached
bis cell Harris arose from his iron cot and
pressed forward to the grating. In low,
solemn tones, yet with a kindly intonation.
the new warden, whom be bad never be
fore seen, told the young wife poisouer of
the Governor's refusal to interfere in his
behalf. Harris, according to the warden,
exhibited little emotion. A spasmodic
clutch at the bars that shut out life, lib
erty and all hope of future earthly happi
ness might have been noticed momentarily.
but iustantly the young man nerved him
self lor a reply.
"Have 1 the privilege of seeing my
mother again!" ho asktd in faltering tones.
"before before T" Then came a moment
of silence that the compassionate warden
hesitated to break in npon.
"Certainly," replied the warden.
"Then please telegraph her to come and
seomeas soon as possible." he whispered
and turned away despairngly.
The warden said, on bin retnrn to the
office. "1 have seeu a great many men in
desperate positions, but never before have
1 seen a man so cool unaer like circum
stances.
AVlll Applv for a Respite.
New Yohk. Slay 4. Lawyer Hummel, one
of Carlyle W. Harris's attorneys, received
the first news of the Governor's deeision
from a reporter. He said an application
would be made for a respite of aboutthirty
days. "Harris's nerves have been at a high
tension since be went to Sine Sing." said
Mr. Hummel, "and he should be given time
to prepare for death. We are all surprised
bv the Governor's decision, as Mr. Howe
had confidently expected his sentence
would be commuted. Further than that 1
believe there is nothing to say."

Special to the XndianapoU Journ al.
Fout Wayne, Ind., May 4. Every seat
in the auditorium of the Second Presby
terian Church was filled, this morning,
when Mrs. Smart, President of the Indiana
Union of Literary Clubs, called the session
to order. Mr. Allan Hendricks, of Indian
apolis, read a paper on "The Literary Ex
ample and Influence of Tennyson." A gen
eral discussion took place on Mr. Hen
dricks's paper, Mrs. Elliott Perkins, Mrs.
McCulIoch and Miss Catherine Merrill, of
Indianapolis, ana Mr. lliff. of Richmond,
taking part. Following this, a discussion
of "Our School System" was taken no by
the delegates. Mrs. Louiso Boyd, of Dub
lin, addressed the audience on "Wom
an's lntluence asTeachers.SiiDeriutendents
and Members of School Boards." Her ad
dress was witty, and she kept the audience
in a state of laughter by her sharp hits and
amusing sayings. "The time when you
could pick ont a sohoolteacher by her looks
is goue," she said. "The teachers of to-day
are better fitted for holding the position
of superintendent, and possess more quali
fications of the position of educators, than
in the days of our arandfathers. In many
States women hold the positions of super
intendents, trustees, and membersof school
boards, and in almost every instance they
perform the duties better than men. The
women of to-day are heroic, and can staud
as many trials and disappointments as
mer."
The next sneaker was Mrs. Helen r.
Guila, of this city, who read a paper on the
"intJnence of the Club Woman on the
School Svstera." Prof. R. G. Boone fol
lowed in the discussion of the theme, "Our
School Sy&leni." Miss Lima Graves, of
Richmond, rend a paper on "I he lnllueuce
of Art as a Teacher in Civilization." A
two-hour discussion followed, which was
opened by Mrs. T. F. Rose, of Muncie. The
eeauion this afternoon commenced with
"The World's Congress of Representative
Women." by Mrs. May Wright Sewall. of
Indianapolis, and was by far the most im
portant address of the day. Following
this address the exhibition of art
schools was given by the Fort Wayne Art
School. To-night the Second Presby
terian Church was crowded to bear Col.
Richard W. Thompson, of Terre Haute,
who delivered an address on "Adams, Jack
son and Clay."
OPERATORS FIND EXCUSES.
They Claim the Action of a Few Miners Has
. Caused All the Trouble.
Special to the Indianapolis Journal.
Tkrre Haute, Ind., May 4. The miners'
convention to-day decided to submit the
question of a strike for an increase of 5
cents a ton in tho Indiana bituminous
mines to the local assemblies. There are
thirty-six local assemblies in the State, and
in . each of these a vote will be taken
whether or not to go to work at last year's
prices. The result will be canvassed in
this oity next Monday, nnd the majority
rill decide. The operators believe that if
the majority should vote for a strike some
of the minority will sign' the old eoaie.
though by doing eo they will retire from
the United Mine Workers organization.
In the meantime only a few of the six
thousand miners in the State will be at
work. The operators are incensed at the
failure of the men to continue at work dur-
iag this first week in the scale year, which
they claim wns the agreemeut last Satur
day when it was seen that a scale could not
be agreed on in time. There is consider
able misunderstanding on that score, and
it is serving to intensify the feeling of op
position on both sides.

NELLIE PAYNE'S TRIAL.
All the Evidence Goes to Tighten the Coils

Special to the InmanaDolls JonrnaL .
Fowler, Ind.. May 4. The Payne trial
is progressing again. Court convened this
morning, and the eyidenoe of three doctors
was to the effect that the defendant was in
sufficient health to go on with her case.
The testimony elicited to-day was very
stroug against the prisoner, especially that
given by Geo. Richmire, Parnham Parker,
Frederick Richmire, Henry M. Clark, Win.
Fields aud George W. Robinson, it all
went to show tho acts of the defendant.
history of the search for the revolver in
water closet, the continual opposition of
defendant to having an investigation of the
premises in the bank yard, and her consent
that the dwelling house might
be examined. 1 he actions of the de
fendant when told that the revolver was
found were also brought out. Witness
Richmire told her. "We have found the re
volver yon shot Jim Payne with." but said
the statement made no impression on her.
The evidence to-day winds tho coila
closely around the defendant, and
her chanoe of escape seems hardly
possible. To-morrow the testimony of
Mr. Payne will be taken. This is expected
to be the strongest against the prisoner.
and will conclude the evidence for the
State. The defense has about thirty wit
nesses, but as yet the lino of defense is a
mystery.

Gas Citv. Ind., May 4. Two more impor
tant industries have been added to Gas
City's list of manufactories. Yesterday
the preliminary papers were signed. to bring
here the plant of the American Electrical
supply Compiny. The concern will manu
facture porcelain electrical apparatus on
an extensive scale. The business is similar
to the manufacture of encaustic tile. Two
acres of ground will be occupied by brick
buildings. Ample capital is back of tbo
enterprise, and it is the avowed intention
to increase the facilities of the plant
if the bnsiness fulfills expectations.
One hundred men will be employed
at the beginning, and the concern
will be in operation by the 1st of August.
The second factory located to-day is the
estern brass works, which removes nere
from Michigan. This concern has a bnsi
ness whieh keeps it running night and day
where it now is. but the proprietors want
to net in the gas belt. They will ereot
