The Forthcoming Trial of Studebaker the
United States Express Company.
Special TO the Indianapolis Journal
FORT WAYNE, June 26.-The somewhat
celebrated case of Studebaker ct al. against
the United States Express Company will
come up for a second trial on July 5, in the Su-
perior Court of Allen county, before struck
jury and Judge Frazier of Warsaw, who
has been specially appointed to preside. On
the first trial the plaintiffs failed to establish
the liability of the defendant for S., 900, the
amount received from the First National Bank
at Cincinnati and consigned to the Exchange
Bank at Button, Ind, of which Studebaker
& Co., are the proprietors. 1t was then
shown by the paying teller and messenger of
the Cincinnati bank that the money, in cur
rency, had been placed in package which was
carried to the express office, duly sealed and
directed, and was there receipted for by the
defendants agent further, that there was
delivered by the express company to the
Exchange Bank a package which, when
opened, disclosed only a number of worth
less slips of newspapers. Since the bringing
of this action robberies of the same mystic
rious character have occurred in various
portions of the country, and skilled detec-
tives are expected at this time to throw some
light upon the manner of their commission.
The prosecution of the case has already cost
Studebaker Co. more money than the loss
of the package involved.

A Pretty Girl speeulator.

Washington Letter.
To-day in coming from the Treasury build
ing, met beautiful girl walking slowly
past one of those brokers' offices, She was
dressed neatly and exquisitely in white, and
was so attractive in appearance as to be gen
orally observed. She was one of the prettlest
of the few pretty girls in the Treasury.
Knowing her quite we'll. and noticing her
apparent anxiety, l asked her what the
trouble was. She said she wanted to know
what Northern Pacific common was quoted
at. and requested me to step into
the brokers' office and look at
the quotations on the big blackboard. 1 COM
piled with her request, and informed her
that Northern Pacific was strong at 5212. She
was much elated at the news, saying that she
was better off than she expected by a good
many dollars. She had bought Northern Pa
ciic at 80 several weeks ago on a small mar
gin, and the stock had Rugged that fisure 50
long that she began to fear she would be
wired out" She went back to her work
with a glad heart, and, no doubt, with
visions of new dresses and bonnets and

An Impossible Story Told of 'sr. Hamlfn.

Washington Correspondence Boston Traveller.
A gentleman just returned from Bangor,
Ale, tells rather amusing anecdote of Han
nibal Hamlin, but by no means at his ex-
pense. Said he: You can see Mr. Hamlin
almost any day in Bangor He wears the
same style of old hat and blue coat with
brass buttons that he did twenty-five years
ago. He is very fond of the young boys, and
goes a-fishing with them with all the ardor
of a twelve-year old. Mr.. Hamin usually
spends some part of the evening at one of
the stores, where a crowd of his old 'cronies
come in to hear him talk. Among them
is an old fellow named Stearns who is
immensely wealthy, but very long-winded,
and. as a rule, his stories do not pan out very
well. Some time ago Stearns came in and
commenced one Of his yarns, and after he
had been talking about fifteen or twenty
minutes, and there did not seem to be any
point in sight Hamlin, with a perfectly
sober face reached down into his pockets
and drew out a pair of ear-aps, which he
put on, and cork stopper, which he gave to
Stearns, The storyteller made a dash for
the door amid screams of laughter from the
crowd"
