BEQUESTS IT TO "PRODUCE"
Freight Korean After tho Board of
Trade for a Subicri ptlo of 1,500.
Which the Board la Not in & Mood to Gire Up
Silrer .solution Committees Ap- .
pointed Last Etc nine:.
The regular meeting of the board of gor
ernom of the Hoard of Trade was unusual
ly spirited, last mzht, owing to tea appear
ance of several questions unon which there
was a great deal of dillerence among the
members. As soon as Secretary Smith had
read the long ruinate of two previous
meetings and tiad shown that the cash bal
ance in the treasury was 3,905. 19. the mat
ter of the freight bureau was sprang by a
communication from Mr. Charles K. Hall,
eoretaryof the bureau, presentmga bill for
f 1.500. due. as averod. by virtue of a bal
ance upon a subscription of 52,000 to
the fund established by the bureau
when citizens should have sub
scribed f 3,000. 31 r. Murphy, in a kind of
I-want-to-get-at-it tone of weariness;
moved that the communication be received,
emphasizing the word received. This was
carried, and then tho disousMon opened
with a question by General f oster as to
whether this subscription, which was made
three years ago, was an annual one. Mr.
Kail toot the iloor, and oxplained that at
the time of the organization of the bureau
the. board of Trade had subscribed a sum
which was not to exceed ',000. lie said
that the board had borne one assessment of
25 per cant. This, he said, was all that
wan or could be assessed against the board
until the amount of ctf.Ou) had been sub
scribed by citizen bunelitiug f;om the
work of the buieau. Tiin amount had
now all been subscribed and 3 00 more, and
paid in, and it was now incumbent upon
the board to pay the sum which the other
subscribers bad expected it to pay. and by
reason of the expectation of which they
had made their subscriptions. Mr. Hall
claimed that hit narration of the affair is
tally borne out by the records of the board,
oud that there is no escape from the liabil
ity of the remaining 75 per ceut. of the sub
scription due.
Mr. J. W. Murphy followed, and said he
was very much opposed to the payment of
any such claim. He denied the liability of
the board to help the bureau pay Mr. Hall's
salary a secretary, and thus prolong the
Jife or the bureau. Mr. Murphy was rather
decided in bis statements. .Mr. Gordon,
another ex-Dr 8idtiit ol the Hoard of Trade,
and also a member of tho bureau, commit
tee, then moved to postpone tiie action
upon the communication until the next
meeting, saying that in the meantime the
bureau would have a meeting of its mem
bers, and the status ot things would then
be clearer. This was the tirsi intimation
of tho fact that the bureau had not met,
and thai there was any dillcrenco among
Its members.
Mr. Mnrtmdale here moved to refer the
whole mattor to tho cciamittce on law,
with instructions to report at the next
meeting upon the liability of the board for
this claim. A miscellaneous discussion fol
io wed in which motion was made upon mo
tion, and thb chairman was compelled to
rap lor orrier. .Mr. Gordon was trying to
Xualie Judt'e Martindale seo why there was
iio need for reierouce. and the Judge was
insisting that only ex parte statements had
come before the board of governors as to
fact and law, and he, for one, would set
bis foot down on voting away money until
be knew for what and to whom it
would go. Ho took occasion to say
to the governors that he had tried
to jump a-straddle of the neck
of the bureau at its inception to
kill it oil," but that he did not succeed and
that it had come to the hole that hp ex
pected it would. At this point Mr. Miirphy
moved to reconsider his own motion to re
ceive witha view to moving to table. Uut
the action precipitated another discussion
in which Mr. D. 1. Krwin participated ef
fectively. He argued that the board ought
to get a full knowledge of the subject and
it the bureau is ot no use that the gov
ernors, since it is nnaer their control, can
dissolve it. He urod that the governors
inform themselves of tho whole matter
and favored Judge Martindale's motion of
reference. The discussion was again spir
ited. Mr. Hall taking a persistent part,
seeming to know where he stood. The
motion of Judge Martindale finally pre
vailed. The Louisville Board of !Trade had sent
a letter asking that the Indianapolis board
should take action indorsing a resolution
favoring the repeal of the fcherman silver
law. Judge Martindale moved that the
resolution, so far as it recommended that
no more silver be purchased and coined
into standard dollars, should be indorsed.
This wan about to prevail when Mr. Erwin
reminded the governors that the Sherman
law does not provide for the coinage of
any of the bullion, but simply buys the re
fined silver and stores it up in a ware
house, where the Ions in value falls upon
the government and not upon the people,
as it would if the free coinage of
silver bud been allowed to become a
law. Secretary bmith cut iuto the dis
cussion to say the board had passed a reso
lution against tho purchase act last Feb
ruary. This put a different phase upon the
subject, and it was ordered that the secre
tary be instructed to forward the Feb
ruary resolutions to tho Senators and Ksp-
reeeutalivrs ot ludiaua. and also to the
Board of Trade ot Louisvillo. with the
date, ru as to show that their action ante-
Gated that of the Louisville bourd. Judge
Martindale in this discussion intimated
that thv groat majority of people in Indi
ana wero very mucu opposed to the further
purchase of bullicn.
The application of V. A. Ketobam. chair.
pian of the encampment committee on re
unions, wan referred to tho committee on
arrangements, with power to act. The
committee 49 red for tho use of the assem
bly hall for the reunion of Shielda's di
vision on Sept. 0.
Mr. Baker, of the committee on law, to
which had been retrrred the question of
who are the heir of a certain deceased
member, who died not leaving widow or
children, but only brothers and sisters and
children of brothers and sisters debased.
read an opinion declaring the children of
the deceased brothers and sisters are en
titled to share m the estate as the next of
kin on a par with tho living brother and
listers. Mr. Hawkins, chairman of the
committee, digested from Mr. Baker's
iow, holding that the term "next of kin"
would tar children of deceased brothers
and istt Ts. who are not quite as near re
lated as living brothers ami sisters. The
opinion of Mr. Baker recommended that
the money be otiered to the brothers
and sisters and the children of de
cased brothers and sisters, taking a
rec-.'ipt and au order from each to pay the
sum due each of tho others, this being, he
said, an eUective estoppel. But if the
heirs retUftQ it was recommended that the
money be paid into court and let the ques
tion of diviaiou do settled by the court.
The governors accepted Mr. Baker's rec
ommendation nnd referred the subject
back to the committee on law, with in
structions to report at the next meeting a
detailed plan upon the basis of his report.
ihe membership committee reported
proof of the ueatb of II. B. Bouse, ana rec
ommenced the election ot John K. Pearson

in. The governors ordered an assessment

BOWNLNG WILL STICK.
The Nectary "StnfIM Will Be Frodnced to
Fall the Bismpmbered Crowd Together.
The friendsof candidate Downing rallied
to bis support, yesterday, and it was an
nounced that Downing was perfeotly will
ing to advanoe the funds necessary for his
canvass, and now the members of the
Cleveland Club, who innocently believed
what was told them by the managers of the
club, are wondering where they are "at" in
the political shuttle.. Some of these mem
bers are believing the report that the club
was sold out to Sullivan is true. They
even say that Downing refused to be
tricked by any set of men who wanted to
get all the money out of him they could
and then bolt for the man that had more
funds. It was stated last night by one of Mr.
Downino s friends, and an intimate one at
that, that DcTrning was in the race to stay,
but he would only put up money for the le
gitimate expenses. He intends to put his
canvass in the hands of his friends. A
meeting of the Downing men was held yes
terday, but as there were none of the Tarn
manyites present the details of the meet
ing are necessarily meager, caid one of
the close friends of Downing:
"The action of the Cleveland Club has
done more to improve the following of
Downing among tho better element of tho
Democratio party than anything I know
of. It shows that he does not intend to be
bled by the ward workers, and it shows
that Sullivan's crowd is not averse to pick
ing up a crowd like the Cleveland Club for
a certain consideration. 1 believo that
Sullivan's lieutenants went to the Cleve
land Club bosses ana promised them offices
in the city department and jobs on
the police and lire forces after
election if they would droD Downing.
The fact of tho matter is, the
Sullivan gang became desperately soared
at the headway of the Downing movement
and they realized that their goose was
cooked unless they made some grand coup
just before the convention. Why. look at
fcnilivan's organ, the ISews. It has been so
alarmed in the last week or two that it has
devoted big editorials to Downing, after
correotmg a misrepresentation of him.
Even the party organ which favors Sulli
van had to jump over precedent and
give Sullivan a significant p iff. Mark my
word. Downing will go into tae convention
next week with a following that will open
the eyes of the Sullivanites."

George ilsuer Figures in a Bloody Fight at
West iDdi&n&polis-Billiard Cues Csed.
The snbnrb of West Indianapolis swung
into line with her 6ister villages, last
night, by furnishing a bloody assault
which was at Bret thouvht to be a murder.
About 11 o'clock detectives Kinney and
Bicbarda and officers Lowe ar 1 JFox were
called to the Union Station to take charge
of George Mauer, a West Indianapolis
young man, held for assault and battery
with intent to kill. Mauer was in charge
of a man named Louis Traugett, who
claimed that his prisoner had attempted
to kill Traugett's brother and sister-in-
law. Jake Traugett and wife, witha bil
liard cue, The Traneette, it appears, oper
ate a saloon at No. 174 Kiver avenue.
On last Saturday night Trauizett had
some trouble with a vonnar man named
John Karroll, and in the argument threw
Karroll out of his saloon. Last night, it
is claimed. Mauer and a companion, both
friends of Karroll, decided to take the
matter up. and about "J o'clock walked into
the Traugett saloon, where the proprietor
and his wife were alone. Without a word
the men picked up billiard cues, and while
one of them used his weapon upon the
husband, Mauer brutally beat Mrs. Trau
gett over the head nntil she was uncon
scious. The two aggressors then Bed. but
were followed by Louis Traugett and a
posse. In a saloon near the Union Station
Mauer was captured, after a hard struggle,
in which he was badly pounded up. The
story of tho assault was told by Traugett
during great excitement, and he asserted
that the prisoner had entered his brother's
saloon for the purpose of murder.
OPERATING A PIOUS SWINDLE.
Toting Man Coll'cting Fonda for an Alleged
ClnTjti in Ireland.
The Rev. Dr. Cleveland, of the Meridian-
street Church, reports to the police the
alleged fraudulent operations of a young
swindler who is traveling about the city
robed in the cloth of a minuter. The man
is described as young and possessed of
fluent speeoh. lie called on Dr. Cleveland
a few days ago, representing himself as a
minister lately returned from Ireland. To
the pastor he said that he bad oome from
the downtrodden isle in the interests of a
struggling parish, and desired to solicit
funds for a church.
He displayed volumniousdocument of rec
ommendation, and Dr. Cleveland interested
himself in the case by subscribing a snug
sum. and referring the solicitor to people
of prominence about the city. The genteel
rascal left, and has since reaped a harvest
among church people about the city. A
day or two since Dr. Cleveland learnvd that
the man is a glaring fraud, and believe;
that he should be arrested. He is slid to
be exceedingly annoying in his assiduous
appeals for aid, and rarely leaves a house
without having seenred a cash donation.

IN THE OFFICIAL GIN MILL.

Columbia (S. C.) Correspondence Philadelphia
Record.
In bis new position as head bartender of
the State, cinder the now famous Evans
liquor law, Governor Tillman was found
to-day just where he should have been in
the great dispensary or official liquor store.
In the great liquor house, just outside the
Capitol grounds, everything was stencil
ed with the Governor's name, just as the
distillers and brewera had shipped the
goods to him.
The three enormous tuns, or vats, into
which as many grades of whisky are ran
as fast as heads can be knocked out of bar
rels, were stenciled all around with this
phrase, constantly repeated: "To Gov. B.
R. Tillman, Columbia, b. C." The air was
strongly perfumed with the odor of liquor.
Liquor splashed into the vats, shot out of
the bottling machines, leaked into pools on
the floor, dripped into great oaken buckets
and escaped from the open mouths of thou
sands of liaska that were being supplied to
the workmen in the labeling, corning and
sealing department. Over this, the great
est warehouse for the biggist gin mill in
the world, a gin mill the size of a State, the
Governor presided.
Now he is showing Tisitori how to work
the spouts that till the bottles. Next he
is upstairs supervising the knocking in of
the heads of barrels to till the. big vats.
Like most good bartenders, be drinks very
seldom, and not at all in his placo of busi
ness.
''Well, Governor." said the correspond
ent, "your law has not gone into general
operation, 1 seef"
ell. what tho do yon expect!" the
Governor inquired. "It cannot bo enforced
in a day. It is not operative in half the
counties, but you must remember that sev
eral counties are dry by law. and others
that will como in have not yet done so."
hen the Governor asked. "What the
do yoaexpect!';nedidnot do so angrily
or loudly, but in a hearty and informal
way. snggestive of the rugged farmer folk
of the Alliance.
"1 see Charleston is to have no dispen
sary, w hy are they lighting the law!"
"lhey are not fighting the law." said the
Governor. "They are flehtinar me. They
always have fought me, and they are keep
ing at it."
"What are you going to do about it!"
"I am going to make Charleston the dry-
est town on earth. If they won't bay State
liquor they shall sot have any otner. and I
will see that they don't, if I have to put a
special constable on every block in the
city."
"why do you intend to charge more than
the people nsed to have to pay for their
liquor? Was there not profit enough under
the old way of selling Uf '
"Well, we do not want to sell it so cheaD
that the people would be tempted to drink
more than they nsed to. We sell pure
liquor, to begin with, and that costs more
than what used to be sold. Then, we plan
to make 100 per cent, pro tit. To the cost of
the best liquor we add the various charges,
freight, bottling, etc.. and on ton of that
add 50 percent, for the State's profit, and
then we sell it to the county dispensaries
at whatever that comes to. Thev are
obliged to odd 50 per cent, profit when they
retail it, ana that is divided between the
town and the county. This is a oostlv
business. We reckon it will cost 00.000
just to run this new department of tho gov
ernment."
"Governor, I see that all your whisky is
100 per cent, proof. Isn't that rather
stronger thau the average man takes it?"
"It is 100 proof " said the Governor, "be
cause it is pure. It is none of my business
how people like it. All I've got to do is to
sell only pure stuff. 1 suggested the put
ting up of signs to read: 'Customers can
add sugar aud water to suit their own
tastes.' To come back to the priee, yon
see our liquor is cheap, considering its
quality. Lven if it were poor stuff, it
would only come dearer by the quantity,
while to small purchasers it would cost
loss than ever liquor cost them before."
Governor, thorois some; complaint that
you bought all this liquor out of the State,
whereas the law declares that home prod
ucts shall have the preference."
I wanted to buy the liquor here, bnt I
don't believe that there has been a drop of
pure liquor sold in South Carolina. I don't
say that thero has not yet, mind yon, but I
expeot to prove that there was not a
drop of pure liquor on hand when this law
went into enect. I called for it.
and nobody sent me any. They
know better than L do whether
they thought it would stand the test of the
government ohemist. Yes, there was one
gentleman in Charleston. He o He red a
small lot he had on hand, and he wrote me
and said it was CO, 70 and 0 proof. W ell.
you see, the best he had was 10 per cent.
under the standard.
"1 wish to relieve the poople of the State
of whatever the law put it out of their
power te sell, bat I had to buy pure liqnor
and so had to ko elsewhere. I had to post
myself oa the whole business in
the last few months. I have had
to work a sight harder than
in all tho rest of my time as Governor.
That's a fact. 1 have studied the whole
business, and no one can fool me on liquor.
1 ain't a drinking man, but 1 know a
sight more about liquor than if 1 was."
Ihe Governor used the profane aajective
in two forms in the above remarks, but did
not express himself angrily orunderexcite
ment. The manner in wbioh they were
spoken suggested to the capitalistic re
porter the thought that perhaps among the
Alliance people such a reinforcement of
plain English is not uncommon.
The Ules Citizen Who Rafanea to Vote
Bight Hon. James Bryce. in th July Forum.
Inditierence to public affairs shows itself
not merely in a neuleot to study them and
tit one s self to give a judicious vote, but in
the apathy which does not care to give a
vote when the time arrives. It is a
serious evil already in some countries-
serious in London, very serious in
Italy, serious enough in the United
States, not. indeed at presidential
but at a city and other locakelections, for
some reformer to have proposed to punish
with a line the citizen who neglects to
vote, as in some old Greek city the law
proclaimed penalties against the citizen
who. in sedition, stood , aloof, taking
neither one side nor the other. For, unhap
pily, it is the respectable, well-meaning,
easy-going citizen, as well as the merely
Ignorant citizen, who is apt to be listless.
Those who have their private ends to serve.
their axes to grind and Ions to roll are not
indolent. Private interest spurs them on.
and if the so-called "good citizen," who
has no desire or aim except that good gov
ernment which benefits him no more than
every one else, does not bestir himself, the
publio funds may become the plunder and
the public- interests the sport of uniorupu
lous adventurers.
How Old Hates Disappear!
New York Tribaio. h
It is saia that James R. Randall, the
author of "Maryland. My Maryland." is to
have a good government office as soon as
the benate meets. Probably he will then
wish his remarks about the "despot's
beel." the "tyrant's ehain." and the
"Northern scum" to be understood iu a
Pickwiokian sense. And he will try to
avenue "the patriotic gore that flecked
the streets of Baltimore" by getting and
holding a good fat office. It is all right;
but what sad havoo time makes of old
hates!
