Indianapolis correspondent OF the
~. inati Enquirer writes:
II Hiram Minnck, ex-policeman and a
Unknown character, is on his way from
Lew Orleans to attend lawsuit in which
ne is vitaly interested. If it 'goes agin
him." his address for term of years will
be Michigan City. Mr.. LAWN Russell, ex-
policeman, has third interest in the same
speculation, with equally bright pres
poets. Mr.. Jim Taylor, brilliant young
expert, is the third partner. Mr.. Temple
&, Harrison, eXeouncilman and law
yer, has an interest in the proceedings,
though not of the same sort. Mr.. Harrison
is an estimable gentleman, who has weak
ness for corn in the fluid state. He is the
gentleman who was so summarily removed
from the Republican city ticket, where he
was candidate for councilman. short
time since, a day or two before the election.
About year ago Mr.. Harrison INDUCED in
vigorous drunk, in the course Of which he
visited Mlnnick's saloon, under the Palmer
House, and somewhat incautiOusly dis
played wealth to the extent of $500 in green
backs. He left at late hour "fuller'n a
goose and on his way home was garroted
and cleaned. 1t is claimed that the rob
berry can be fastened on Minnick, Russell
and Taylor.
Minnick was always a fancy policeman,
who wore good clothes and ruttied shirts,
but whose countenance was not by any
means reassuring. Some years ago he dis
tinguished himself by marrying we'll
known courtesan knownias Queen Nab, and
recently he still further distinguished him
self by separating from and putting
head" on the wife of his bosom. Russell is
a man who has stood reasonably fair for
policeman, and his arrest has surprised and
panied his friends. Heretofore nothing
worse than wearing a cross. composed Of
large, straw-colored Australian diamonds
in his shirt front, has been proved against
him. Taylor is the son of wealthy and
respectable citizen of Chicago. who has
spent $4,000 in keeping his hopeful out of
the penitentiary. He has been arrested
time and again here, but has always man
aged to escape in some mysterious man
ner-Once while undergoing trial for bur-
glary and highway robbery.
