LUKE'S DOWNFALL.


CINCINNATI, Jan. 1.-THE Enquirer prints
a sensational story sent from ST. Louis, de-
failing the alleged downfall of John W.
Luke one of the most respected men of that
city. He has lived for half century in a
community where his word was as good as
his bond. No man with the divine JUNCTION
ever stood higher in the estimation of his
neighbors. He had labored to establish a
reputation for probity and honor and he had
not labored in vain. He was trustee of ST.
Georges Episcopal Church, and treasurer of
the Firemen's Relief Fund, while, for over
quarter of a century, the Masons of the great
State of Missouri had confided in him, as Sec
retary and treasurer, the most secret trusts,
the money which they intended should
be distributed among their widows and
orphans. Some time ago DR. Pottanger, then
the medical examiner of the Masonic asso-
citation claimed to have discovered short
age in the cash accounts OF the secretary and
treasurer. The Doctor made the trail very
hot for Mr.. Luke, and, had he been seconded
by single man III the fraternity, it is proba-
BILE that then and there the villainous secret
would have been thrown up. But for his
persistence in making the charges, DR.. Pot
tanger himself fell into bad repnte- and -ras
incontinently bounced from his position.
Finally, Mr. Luke resigned, and an investi-
CATION is in progress So far, the accounts of
only one division of the Benefit Society have
been examined, and it is alleged they show
a shortage of $4,000 At the same rate,
the total deficiency will be $4,000. A
defalcation of $4,000 is claimed to have
existed in his accounts as treasurer of
the Firemen's Fund. This amount, it is
understood, Mr.. Edwin Harrison, of the firm
of Chouteau, Harrison & Valley, and Mr..
Gerard Allen, of the Fulton Iron Works,
made good out of their own pockets. Luke's
resignation as church treasurer was about
this time promptly accepted
1t is also said that the money which Mr.
Luke is charged with appropriating has gone
into the same gulf in which his son-in-law,
Oby Owen. dumped cool 5000, 000 Mr. Owen
was teller in the Third National Bank, one
of the wealthiest of st. Louis corporations,
was also a member of st. Georges Church,
and, like his father-in-aw, commanded the
respect and confidence of every one. So
much confidence, indeed, did he command
that. up to last June, he was able to scoop
nearly quarter of million dollars out of the
vaults of the Third National, all of which is
supposed to have gone in stock gambling.
Owen is now in the St Louis county jail
awaiting trial, which is set for next month
Like his father-in-law, he was conspicuous
for his outward honor.

WASHINGTON, Jan. l7.-ln the House Rep

tials of Charles T. Doxey, who took his place

COMMERCE. IN JAPAN.


New York, Jan. IA gentleman ius
arrived from Japan communicates the fol
lowing information, of interest to Ameri
cans: The railroad built from Sapparo to III,
sea coast, in Yezo, by Colonel j. w. Craw
ford, has proved economical, and at the same
time so satisfactory, that it is reported to be
the intention of the Japanese Colonization
Department to adopt the American system
of railroad building in the extension of the
railway system in the northern part of japan.
An important commercial undertaking ha.
just been consummated in Japan, in the
shape of the Union Steamship Company.
This company is backed by private capital
lists and the government, and is intended to
develop the trade oil Japan, particularly al
ports which have hitherto suffered from
lack of steam communication. The capital
stock is $8,000 900, half subscribed by the
government and half by japanese merchants
and farmers The latter part has already
been paid in. The companys fleet will, at
first, consist of forty steamers, about half of
which will be running within eighteen
months. The company will extend its
operations to Hong Kong and other Chinese
ports.

THE LAWS DELAY.
A Decision that Would Have Been Valuable
Last Summer.

New YORK, Jan. IA relic of the late
freight-handlers strike turned up to-day in
the general term of the Supreme Court,
when that tribunal handed down a decision
in one of the appeals in the case of the peo-
pie against the railroad companies for a
mandamus to compel the companies to re-
ceive and transport freight with all due
speed This application was first made to
the Supreme Court last summer, when the
freight-handlers strike was on The suit
was brought against the New York Central
& Hudson River Railroad Co., and Others
for peremptory writs of mandamus to COM
pei the speedy reception and trans
portation of freight. Ex-senator Conkling
represented the railroads, and Judge Haight,
who heard the case, denied the application,
and an appeal was taken. The general term,
in its decision to-day, reverses the orders
with costs in each case, and grants the mo-
tions asked for

THE SENATORIAL ELECTIONS.
Good Deal of Interest Evinced as Regards
Massachusetts.

Special to the indianapolis Journal
WASHINGTON, Jan. livery little interest
was awakened in the proceeding to-day of
either house. The news from the State Legis-
latures where senatorial elections are in
progress was eagerly sought by senator's of
both parties, and numerous private kilograms
were received giving the results of the bal
lotings. The contest in Massachusetts is
watched with special interest, and when the
ballot was bulletined showing that Mr.. Hoar
lacked but seven votes of election on joint
ballot, his friends were quite jubilant. They
are sanguine tonight that the Grape vote
will be thrown for him tomorrow, which
will insure his election. On the other hand
it is asserted that combination with the
Democrats has been effected by which ex-
Governor Long will receive the prize.

KELLEY's BILL.
But Little Probability that the Measure
VIII Pass the House.


Special to the indianapolis Journal
WASHINGTON, Jan. 17.-With the exception
OF Randall, Speer, and few others who are
known protectionists, the Democratic mem
bers of the House are pronounced in their
determination to oppose Mr.. Kelley's tariff
bill, which they do not hesitate to style 'the
bill to sustain high tariff" Representatives
Carlisle, Tucker and Morrison, who voted
against it in the committee, have expressed
their intention of using every effort to de-
feat it, unless it is amended to suit their
views, and each in his way is leader on the
Democratic side, The Republicans have not
a quorum in their own ranks who will sus-
tain the bill in its present shape, and if the
Democrats decide to fillibuster against it its
passage will be impossible.

Outwit the Legitimists
LONDON, Jan. IA dispatch from Paris
to the Times says the appearance of Prince
Jerome's manifesto is regarded by some as a
march stolen on the Legitmists, for it was
known that the Count de Chambord,
impelled by his supporters, was preparing a
manifesto. Eighteen thousand placards had
been printed with the greatest secrecy.
Baron Brunei has asked to be arrested al
accessory TO the PRONUNCIATION of the mani
festos, but the magistrate refused to take him
into custody.
Reports from the provinces say the news
the arrest of Prince Jerome created no grea
sensation.
The Times says: prince Napoleon ha
been arrested under an article of the pena
code entailing transportation, which can be
reduced to exile. BY the constitution the
Senate can be constituted a court Of justice
to take cognizanCe of outrages against the
safety of the state. Such coart would bt

CAUSE OF HILARITY.
A dispatch to the Daily News from Pari.
says the manifesto of Prince JerorHe excited
more hiarity than anger. The newspaper
squibs on the subject are endless.
Floquet's bill was discussed at cabine'
council. 1t is considered too stringent Some
of the ministers will not support it unless i
be modified
Prince Jerome occupies the room in whicl
his cousin Pierre was detained. Prince
Murat asked 10 be permitted to visit Je
rome, but his request was refused. Prince
Jerome was interrogated again to-day. He
denied that he intended to overthrow the
republic. All he wanted, he said, was tt
ascertain, by means of a plebiscite, wha
the people thought of it. He had antici.
pated expulsion, but not imprisonment
He was glad however the ministry had
ordered the step which would call the at
tention of the nation to the facts asserted in
the manifesto. As Prince Jerome has been
annoyed by the crowd looking up into his
windows, they have been boarded half way
up.
The Standards correspondent learns, on
good authority, that the president Of the
Council is opposed to Prince Jerome being
brought before the Court of Appeal, and
would prefer to have him tried by the Senate
The Times's dispatch says the Radical Left
pronounced almost unanimously for Flo
quets proposal, but in the Democratic
Union notice was given of an amendment
giving the government power to expe the
princes. There is every reason to presume
that Floquet's bill will be rejected The
Chamber voted urgency for it merely for the
purpose of disposing of it the sooner

Special to the Indianapolis Journal
WASHINGTON, Jan. 1.-THE action of the
National Republican committee this after
noon in rejecting the various plans proposed
for changing the representation on the ma
tional committee so as to give greater in
fluence to the delegations from Republican
States is regarded as a triumph over Mr.
Chandler. In support of his substitute for
the various plans proposed, that the basis of
representation shall remain as it has hereto
fore been, Senator Logan urged that it was
based on the theory that the people are
represented the theory on which Presidents
are elected, save that the Territories were in
cluded He contended that there was no
principle in the idea of having delegates
chosen in proportion to the number of Re-
publicans in a district, nor was there any
stability in the plan. He was seconded by
Mr. New, and the substitute failed.

A Curious but Pleasing Custom.

There is @ custom prevailing among the inhabitants of the Sandeman Islands, which may throw light upon the civil ized use of wedding cake. When 8 na- tive girl whose exceptional beauty has brought her many suitors is knocked down and carried off by her accepted suitor, the wedding pair, within forty eight hours of the wedding, send cup of poison distilled from the hulahula tree to each one of the brides former ad- mirers. If any recipient feels that he cannot become reconciled to the mar- riage, he drinks the poison and dies; but if he declares that he will survive the loss of his intended wife, he throws away the poison and feels bound in honor never to show the slightest sign of disappoint- ment By this admirable system the husband is spared the bangs of jealousy, and is able to live on friendly terms with the surviving admirers of his wife.

The advertisement ran as follows: "A medical student whose means are ex- hausted would like to meet with some one who would advance him the neces- sary sum to complete his studies, at a moderate rate of interest. If necessary he would as guarantee at once marry his creditors daughter, or, if he prefers it, would give an undertaking to do so on passing his final examination.
