SOLD THE GovERNoRs.--A good story is
afoat about Henry Willard and the gov
ernors of the various states participating
IN the festivities of the night following
evacuation day. He met the distinguished
gentlemen on friendly, social footing,
and somehow nearly every one of them
wanted pointer" on the market, lust
for information, and nothing else" So
be magnanimously confded to the inquir-
ing ones his opinion that there would be
a marked improvement in the market
from this on" particularly In his (the
Villard) railroad secuities. One week
from that time, for illustration, Oregon
and Transcontinental had dropped from
eight TO ten points. enough to swamp al
most anybody's margini 1t was also no.
ticed that several governors still fingered
about town and in the vicinity OF Wall
street, wearing faces as long as a row OF
churns.

The REsULT.-In the police court yes
terday appeared A. Munson and Henry
Sawmiller on a charge of resisting o
police officer. They had an interpreter
on hand through whom they entered a
plea of mot guilty" Judge Coffinbury
held them in default of go bail to ap-
pear to-day. This trouble arises from
the row in the OLD Scandinavian house
last Tuesday morning when Officer Steabb
arrested Victor johnson for the alleged
cutting of John Brinkman as reported
in full in Tuesdays AsToRIAN. Steabb
had arrested Johnson, whereupon Nun
son and Sawmiller took him away, when
he ran, pursued by Officer Beasley, who
finally captured him. johnson was
moved to the hospital, and is badly hurt;
one bullet penetrated his body at the base
of the spinal column and coming out at
the groin. 1t is considered impossible
for the unfortunate man to live. Brink
man. who had been badly cut was out of
danger yesterday.

YESTERDAYS SroRM.-The wind and
rain that lulled on Christmas awoke in
greater fury yesterday morning and all
day the storm blew furious from the
south. The wind came in short strong
gusts that played havoc with the few
ladies and children that ventured out.
Signs, fences, trees, chimneys, etc, re-
ceived severe shaking up, and travel
was seriously interfered with. A pile
drover near Devlin's cannery toppled,
and one or two roofs suffered, but the
casualties were light. In the stream, our
sheltered harbor demonstrated its safety.
The vessels simply put out an extra line
and let the storm pipe on. At the cape
the wind blew great guns; the sea came
in in immense green waves, and naviga-
ton of all kinds was stopped Porpoises
in immense schools came up in front OF
the city and sportively gsmboled the live
long day. As the short day darkened
into night the wind whisked around to the
southwest and roared. at every crevice
At midnight the storm moderated, and
about half past two this morning tbs
parting clouds gave promise of fine day

The strset-Railwax pnzrle.

To the Editor the Indianapolis Journal:
The street-car question in the City Council
has assumed the appearance of a puzzle to
those outside. A very responsible organiza-
ton, with ample capital, has proposed to
place cars upon certain unoccupied streets
of our city, giving accommodations for
travel which exceed in equipments and facii-
ties those now being given by the Citizens
Street-railway Company, and have asked the
city to grant them this privilege and name
the conditions which, in the opinion of the
Council, will benefit the people most. But
instead of promptly passing such ordinances
as would secure at once on unoccupied
streets those better facilities which are not
only asked for by the people, and which it is
clearly the right of the Council to grant, our
city fathers (having heard from their con
stituents, no doubt. proceed to regulate the
present lines up to the standard of con-
venience proposed by the Cleveland COM
pany. The moral obligation to the Louis
Vile company, it seems, is to give them
control OF our streets and permit them to
use unoccupied territory at their pleasure.
The right kind of progress would say Let
capital and enterprise in" but if our highly
moral Council is opposed to progress in that
way, then it should have the courage to in
form the Johnsons to proceed at once to the
work of completing all the improvements
proposed by the Cleveland company, and in
the same time and manner.

AN INTENTIONAL OMISSION.
New York Times.
The convention has failed to disown or
condemn the violent means which have been
resorted to by men who are ranked among
the defenders of the cause of Ireland. This
omission is clearly an intentional one 1t
will have the immediate effect of creating in
the public mind a certain suspicion which
nothing but great discretion and moderation
can hereafter dispel.
SPIRIT OF THE ENGLISH PRESS
smalleys Cable Special to New York Tribune.
London papers have received many col
umns by cable respecting the Irish conven-
tions in Philadelphia, but have mostly re-
served decisive comments till the conclusion
of the proceedings 1t is quite understood
of English opinion, which prevented the
open adoption of the dynamite policy. 1t is
understood also, that the omission of all
condemnation of violence and outrages
signifies an implicit approval of them by the
convention, and also the approval of Mr..
Parneil. Nothing that Ar Parnell ever said
or did has produced worse impression here
than his caDled letter to the convention.
Mr.. Parnel," says the Standard, "has out
done himself in this document, for audacity
and perversion of facts, unequaled by
his highest fight of oratorical eff
frontery, when he asserts that he is
obliged to remain III England to OPP
pose the criminal code bill. He wishes his
American friends TO understand that the
English Legislature is forging another weap
on of oppression and cruelty against Ireland,
and assumes that America is ignorant that
the new bill is impartally applicable to the
whole United Kingdom. Mr.. Parnells pres
ent policy is not constitutional agitation,
but is dictated by a discreet regard for con-
sequences"
1t is said here, in important circles, that
Mr.. Parnell is SO deeply implicated in the
work of the party of violence as to be unable
to disavOw, even if he wished to do SO. Ii is
believed that lyman could connect the Par
liamentary party directly with the crimes ii
he could be extradited. Devine's instruct
i've testimony yesterday in Dublin adds one
link to the short chain between the murder
ers and the politicians. No effort will be
spared to identify the members of the House
who attended the meeting of assassins.
