THE WOOL GROWERS ASSOCIATION.
The Reduction of the Tariff on Wool De-
nOunced-A Sheep Shearing Festival.

At the morning session of the State Wool
growers Association yesterday, after a general
discussion of paper on 1.-THE best Sheep for
Wool and Mutton" read by Nixon Henley, of
Morgan county, favoring the Cotswold as the
most profitable for farmers to raise the follow
ing officers for the next year were elected:
President-Cyrus I. Nixon indianapolis.
Nlce-preSident-I. n. Cotton, Traders Point.
Secretary-I. J. Farquhar, Trenton.
Treasurer. L. Thompson, Grant county.
A report was received from the committee APP
pointed to consider the question of tariff on
wool, in which they stated that they recognized
the fact that large majority of the laboring
classes, including agriculturists,' are producers
of articles upon which there are no tariff duties
and that the farmer is compelled to pay a large
per cent more for his farm nipple
ments and necessaries of life, produced
by manufactures, in consequence of the unjust
discrimination of the tariff laws; that the re
duction of the tariff on wool was an unjust and
unfair discrimination against the agriculturist,
and recommending that the Indiana members of
Congress be asked to use their influence to pro
cure such legislation as will secure equal pro
lection to a leading industry of the State by the
restoration of the tariff law of 1867" The re
port was adopted unanimously.
A resolution, expressing the sympathy of the
association for the family of John Bray, the
stock dealer killed in the Broad Ripple disaster,
was adopted.
The association decided to hold a ''sheep-
shearing festival in this CITY, at the fair grounds
on June 5 and g. A committee consisting of l.
N. Cotton, John L. Thompson, Robert Mitchell
Nixon Henley, l. j. Farquhar and G. f. Darnell
was appointed to assume the management of
the festival and make all necessary arrange
ments for the occasion.

The Republican county committee will meet
at o'clock this afternoon to designate the num-
Der of delegates to be furnished to the Repub-

egates for each ward and six for each precinct in

students had jubilee, winding up by seren-
aiding prominent prohibitonists, including
one of the professors, with tin pals and other
unmusical implements. In their rounds they
paid visit to Rev. MIR. Mills, senior in the

a conspicuous advocate of prohibition. The
moment the chsriavari began in front of the
house he fired four shots from revolver
into the crowd.
One of the shots slightly wounded student

The election in this State appears to have
resulted in republican success BY . small
majority. The figures already sent must be
somewhat reduced. Those on congressman
are, 40 previously stated, with the exception
of the second district, which 10 now claimed
by both parties. The republicans claim q
majority of 46. and the democrats q majority
of 81.
The democratic State committee place the
republican majority at about 1900.
The Free Press, DEM, has reports from q
large part of the State. including the upper
peninsular, which is strongly republican. and
states that the estimate indicates q small
fusion majority, and that il viii take an OH
cial count to decide 1t. They estimate the
fusion vote for Cleveland at l62, 900, and for
Butler at IS, 600.
As the fusion was made on an agreement
to divide the electoral vote proportionally to
the popular vote, fusion victory would give
Cleveland 10, Butler and Blaine 1.
The State republican committee docs not
allow the claim of the fusionists, but still
claim q majority of 1000 on the State electoral
ticket.
The Post, rep, claims the State by 5000 to
1000. The figures received from correspond
ents in most counties, with an estimate on
remaining counties. give Blaine a plurality
of over 5000. 1t also claims to have five
republican representatives.
The prohibitory party vote has been esti-
mated by the Free Press at about &c, 900 for
Preston for governor and IL 900 for ST. john

visited the infected houses yesterday. Every
precaution is being taken to prevent contag
ion.
Later-From midnight, Thursday, to Fri
day morning. four fresh cases of cholera
were reported in this city, none of which,
however. proved fatal. The centre of the
epidemic is Rue Marguerite and st. Antonio
quarter. The public is not alarmed at the
prospect and the general aspect of the city
remains unchanged.
M. Bronardet, vice president of Paris
Council OF Hygiene, pronounees the cholera
now prevalent in France, as of the genuine
Asiastic type. The first victims were rag
pickers living in densely populated Faubourg
Stantere, who became infected from imported
rags. He predicts the present epidemic will
not be severe and that it will be thoroughly
repressed by coming cold weather and
rigid sanitary precaution.

The election of Cleveland was celebrated
tonight by firing a salute of 100 guns on the
common.
At conference of democrats and indie
pendents today, committee was appointed
to decide on some plan for further Jolliica-
ton. Probabably mass meeting in Faneuil
Hall and possibly a torchlighi parade and
fireworks will be the programme decided on.
In compliance with a request from the
board of police commissioners. the papers
posted no bulletins this evening, and as
consequence the streets present a more nat
ursi appearance. Groups of men and bows
continue to loiter around the newspaper
offices, but nothing like the crowd of the last
three nights is to be seen. No trouble has
been reported, although extra police details
have been on duty TO meet any emergency
Dispatches from various parts of New Eng
land state that the democrats in many places
are celebrating their apparent victory.

MINERS RIOTING.
A Conflict in Murray City-HOuses Rid
died With Bullets-Attacking Party
Finally Dislodged.

CLEVELAND, O., Nov Z.
Another riot is still in progress in the
Hooking Valley. Murray City was attacked
last night by an armed force OF men, sup.
posed to be the strikers. The attack was
made in about one hour after Pinkerton's
Guards went off duty, giving place to new
company of police. The firing was upon the
town and company stores from the hills on
all sides. Shots were promptly returned bv
both sides. The guard was driven in from
the hill above and had it not been for the
action of the Pinkerton men the hoppers
would undoubtedly have been burned. Ex-
plosives were thrown from the hills which
burst in town with noise that shook the
earth. After about an hours firing a squad
of Pinkerton's men hanked the attacking
party and drove them of. Rocks and leaves
in several places on the hills were found spat-
tered with blood showing the strikers had not
all escaped unhurt. The south side of the
company's store bears marks of one hundred
bullets. Several of the conpany's houses
are riddled and the windows are broken all
over town.
