THE CHICAGO MARKET REPORTS.
An Order to Keep Them from the City Board
of Trade.

The announcement was made by the Western
Union Telegraph Company, yesterday, that it
had been instructed to no longer deliver the
Chicago market reports to the Indianapolis
Board of Trade, and as the announcement came
unexpectedly and without any explanation, it
caused some CONSERVATION. A telegram was at
once sent to the Chicogo Board by Secretary
Blake, inquiring the cause for Withdrawing
the reports and the following has been
received in reply from George T Stone, the as
sistant secretary of the Chicago board:
your board has not applied for our quota
tons under the conditions required by our new
rules. Bucket-shop parties whom we have shut
off in your city have free access to the quota
tions of your board, and use them from your
boards If you are willing to cooperate faith
fully with us and will carry out our require
ments markets will be cheerfully furnished
Upon your signing the application.
The action of the Chicago board is i'll advised,
TO say the least. All persons who are not mem
bers of the Indianapolis board are excluded from
Its floor and even members are strictly forbid
den to make any use of the quotations which
will give any advantage to outsi persons. The
governors of the board will meet to act upon the
matter, however, and an amcable understand
ing will doubtless be reached.

Evading the Real Issue.

The Acton camp meeting trustees are evad-
ing the real issue" said an ex-member of the
Board to the reporter yesterday. 1t doesn't
make the slightest difference whether the rail
road company has offered to stop running
Sunday trains or not. If the trustees don't want
to encourage the dissertation of the Sabbath. let
them make public the announcement that
nobody will be admitted to the grounds on Sun
day. Then nobody will come, and there will be
no occasion for running Sunday trains. They
have the entire control of the matter in their
own hands, and the public will not be slow in
understanding this fact Their present attitude,
in view of the resolutions recently adopted, is
contemplate in the extreme.

FOR 5OCENTS
The WEEKLY JOURNAL.

In order to place the WEEKLY INDIANA
STATE JOURNAL in the home of every Repub-
lican in the State, and thus do good campaign
service for the Republican party, we have de-
cided to send the paper till after the presiden-
tial election for so cents This will include
the number beginning from the present date,
and the one succeeding the November election
giving the result of the national campaign.
THE WEEKLY JOURNAL is complete family
newspaper. 1t is specially edited, and much
of the matter appearing in it is especially pre-
pared for the wants of the weekly readers. 1t
is compendium of the NEWS OF THE WORLD
from all quarters; it has full and accurate mar
ket reports its editorials are political, social
and general; it has the news of the State
and of the city; it has "a record
of the proceedings of Congress; it will have a
complete report of the national conventions at
Chicago Its literary and miscellaneous fea-
lures are of the best.
THE WEEKLY JOURNAL is a newspaper that
should be in every family in Indiana, and at
the price named for it there is no reason why
it should not be, at least during the exciting
and important campaign upon which the
country is about to enter. Political com
mittees cannot do better than to see that
copies of THE WEEKLY JOURNAL are placed
in the hands of those persons in their
counties who are not now readers of
some sound Republican paper. The
tariff question is the one issue which
is likely to be most prominently dis
cussed, and to this the Journal pays especial
attention, advocating the maintenance of the
principle of protection to American industry
in whatever revision of the tariff laws may be
made necessary in the future developments of
business and labor. In this question the
farming community is deeply interested, and
the discussions of the journal will be
largely directed to the agricultural aspects of
the question
THE WEEKLY JOURNAL is the only paper in
Indiana that publishes regularly Ten Pages,
and this will be continued throughout the
campaign, despite the low price. Send in
names at once, and thus get the full term for
the money. JOHN c. NEW & SON,

The Herdics Abandoned.

The stockholders and directors of the Herdic
Phaeton Company, which has been operating a
line on Meridian and Tennessee streets since
early last winter, held meeting yesterday and
decided to cease business. The refusal of the
City Council to grant the charter asked for, and
the apparent lack of appreciation by the public
are given as the reasons for not continuing the
operation of the line The assets of the com
pany, which will it is claimed, exceed the iabli-
ties $4,000 or more, will be converted into cash
by W. A. .Rhoads, and all Indebtedness will be

Declared to Be Insane.

Jasper M. Trenary clerk, aged twenty four,
who lives with relatives at No. 81 Decauter
street, has been declared insane. He imagines
that people are constantly reading his mind,
and this apparently, is the only form his
mania has taken. The attending physician says
that his trouble is probably the result of read
ing and studying over the subject of mesmer-
ism and the excessive use of tobacco
Joshua Stubs, aged fifty-seven, farmer of
Wayne township, has also been declared insane,
and the testimony shows that his mind has been
affected for many years, and he has been under
partial restraint since 1870

PAYING SIS 600 FOR BREACH OF PROM
IsE.-In April last Miss Mary E. Brown,
handsome and accomplished society lady
of Abbevile, S. c., sued John Mcneil, a
wealthy merchant and planter, for seduc-
ton and breach Of promise of marriage,
laying her damage at $4,000. The trial
was set for next month, but few days
ago it was ascartaiued that the affair had
been settled by the payment of SIS 600 to
Miss Brown. Miss Brown is about 25
years old, and thirty-five summers have
passed over Mr.. McNeil's head. He is q
fine-looklng, man, is worth over 100000,
and has literary turn of mind. Ia the
midst of his business and literary pursuits
however, he has found ample time to make
love; indeed, he is a genius in this direc-
ton, if Miss Mary Brown is to be believed
for she declares that he read poetry to her
| and fooled her by his endearing talk. He
agreed, she alleges, on several occasions
that he would marry her, and the day was
fixed several times, but he always inven-
| ted some excuse to postpone the wedding
without, however. disseminating his visits.
On February 20 last, while Mcneil was
| visiting her, she determined to put the
matter to a test, and sent for trial justice
| to come and marry them. Mcneil, hear
| ing the justice enter the house, made his
escape through a window. Miss Brown
then became thoroughly convinced of his
perfdy, and at once instituted legal pro-
ceedings.

whose death, at his home in Martinsburg,
is announced, was, perhaps, one of the
most distinguished citizen of Virginia.

"Whereas we, the humble petitioners,
are at present in very melancholy con-
dition of mind, considering how all the
bachelors are blindly captured by widows
and we are thereby neglected. In conse-
quence of this our request is that your
Excellency will, for The future, order that
no widow presume to marry any young
man until the maids are provided for. or
else to pay each of them fine for satisfac-
tion of invading our liberties. and like
wise q fine to be levied on all bachelors as
shall be married to widows. The great
disadvantage it is to US maids is that the
widows, by their forward carriage, do
snap up the young msn and have the
vanity to think their merit beyond ours,
which is a great imposition to us, who
ought to have the preference. This is

Gordon's Reported Downfall.

NO CONFIRMATION OF THE RUMORS.
LONDON Nov. 9.-The Times considers
the news reported from Cairo to the Paris
Morning Neaos to the effect that Khartoum
had fallen into the hands of the rebels,
and that Gen. Gordon had been taken
prisoner, as extremely doubtful. This
view, it thinks, is especially reasonable in
the absence of advices on the subject from
Gen. Lord Wolseley. The Times traces
the report to the Bosphore Egyptien, ''a
given EuropeaniZed version of the Arab
rumors which have recently gained some
currency in Cairo"
Earl Granville, Secretary of State for
Foreign Affairs, assured the Press Asso-
citation to-day that the government had
received no confirmation of the news.
A dispatch to-day from DongOla to
Reuters Telegram Company makes no
mention of the reported fall of Khartoum.
1t says, however, that the Mahdi, at last
accounts. was collecting his forces around
Khartoum and had summoned Gen. Cor
don to surrender. Troops of the Mahdi
had intercepted two messengers dispatch
ed by the British to Khartoum. The same

had possession of the wells on the caravan
route between Debbeh and Khartoum.
After the crops are harvested the Mahdi's
forces will be largely increased.
In the House of Lords this afternoon,
Lord Granville, Foreign Secretary, said
the government had no reason to believe
that the report of the fall of Khsrtoum
and the capture of Gen. Gordon was true.
The House adjourned until Thursday.
The Marquis of Salisbury, the conser-
vative leader, referring to the Instructions
given by the government to Gen. Gordon,
said that it appeared to be the intention
of the government to abandon all the
all the Egyptian garrisons IN the Soudan.
Lord Granville denied that the govern

no intention to prolong the campaign in
