ARREST OF 81 POL1CEMEN-A PLAN TO GNCABCERAIE
COL. FRIEDLEY AND OTHERs-AREEsr OF GOV.
HENDRICKS THREATENED THE GREENBAcK
SCHEME.
lBY TELEGRAPH To THE TRBUSE.I
INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, oct. S-All over the State
the contest is remarkable for energy, combatiyeuess
and fierce partsanship but this city is the focus
where these characteristics are intensified Here
the surgng tides of hostile feeling converge and
clash with unparalleled fury. 1t is a whirlpool Of
party strife EXpediens resOrtcd to for the pur-
pose of gaining an advantage in the struggle that
would not be thought Of elsewhere. Yesterday the
Democrats procured the arrest of q of the
city policemen a charge Of assault and battery.
Their offtnse was apprchending under the Vagrmcy
laws q number of the worst characters left in the
wake of the Democratic demonstration Of last
Thursday, bruiscrs and repeaters from Philadelphia
and Baltimore boarding at the hotels, and dead beats
from no one knew where who were hanging about
the railway station sleeping in empty freight cars
and waiting for the election. The policemen were
promptly bacd and are on duty again. Their ar
rest was a very foolis move, and has had no effect
except TO create good deal of Indignation against
the party managers who were at the bottom of 1t.
The police have kept Oh with their work OF making
indianapolis an uncomfortable place for the Demo-
cratic veterans who have TO take a hand in the
election and most of them have left town, going, it
is believed, to Fort Wayne, Logansport and other
places.
The Democratic leaders appear to be losing their
heads as the need for GOODNESS and good Judgment
becomes greatest. They have prepared alIdavits
charging Col Friedley, the Chairman Of the Republic
can Central Committee, and three other prominent
Republicans, with conspiracy to commit felony in
arranging for the importation of voters. They have
no evidence. and the only thing calculated TO
their suspicious is the presence here of three four
men from New-York and Baltimore who i'll
reality detectives sent to look after the Demo
cratic roughs and ballot-box mashers. 1t is not be-
eved at Republican headquarters tonight that the
matter will be proceeded with and warrants taken
out but if arrests are made these manufactured af
fdayits Col Friedley intends to swear out warrants
promptly for half dozen prominent Democrats In
