STATE TEMPERANCE COUNCIL.
Mass Meeting To Be Held in indianapolis
July "a.

After the Democratic State convention, on
Wednesday, the executive committee of the
Grand Council of the State temperance organiza-
ton had meeting to consider the best course
to be pursued by the party in the campaign.
Sylvester johnson presided, and NJ. E. Shiel was
secretary The meeting was not altogether a
harmonious one, and diverse opinions We're enter
tanned by several of those present. A
number favored the calling of a State
convention for July H. and others
State mass meeting for July "a.
1t was finally agreed to hold the mass meeting
on the latter date, although there are still some
who, either through misapprehension or per
verseness, adhere to their determination to call
the State convention. The Monitor Journal Of
today will contain a call for the mass meeting
of the oath, at which time the course of the
party will probably be determined.

HOLDING A CORPSE AS COLLATERAL.
The Rather Rough Experience of an Indian
apOTis Corpse in New York.

Michael Panden an Italian fruit dealer who
accumulated some wealth from stand which he
kept at the corner of Washington and Illinois
streets, in this city, about month ago left for
New York, intending to sail for his native land.
He was wasting away with consumption, and he
believed that the trip would benefit his health.
However, at Albany, N Y, he met an Italian
doctor, who told him that he was not able to
make the trip, and advised him to remain III
New York awhile to recuperate Panden went
to the house of a relative named Donofrio, but
upon the advice of physician he afterward
moved to place known as Puerares Hotel, bat
before making the change left $3.50 with
Ponofrio for the payment of his
expenses On Monday last Panden
suddenly died, and the New York Herald Of
Wednesday says that "Puerare telegraphed to
Pandens wife, in indianapolis, that her husband
was dying, in order not to shock her. She re-
piled that she wouldcome on the next day Soon
after, the Dsnofrios telegraphed her that he was
dead, and she notified them to send on the body.
They got permit from Coroner Martin TO
remove the body and employed undertaken
James L. Slevin, who went to Pnerares early
yesterday morning to take the body to his shop
in Spring street. Puerare refused to give up
the body, saying that the widow was coming on
to takeSeare of it, and that the deceased owed
him for board. Slevin then went to the Thlr-
tieth-street station-house and informed Captain
Williams of the case, who sent an officer to tell
Puerare to give up the body He still refused,
and was arrested. AT the station-house Puerare
showed Mrs. Panden's telegram as his authority
for keeping the body. He could not speak
English, and with wild gestures and rapid Ital-
ian protested his innocence of any crime. With
the aid of his daughter translator, Puerare
was made to understand the case, and, yielding
his claim, was discharged The body was then
taken possession of by the undertaken and sent
to indianapolis last evening. The landlord and

1t is expected that Commissioner Fink will
this week recommend the per cents. to govern
the roads in the Indianapolis eastbound pool
The commissioner asked each of the roads,
seven in number, to give him an expression as
to what per cent. they thought their respective
roads were entitled to, and also what they
thought competing roads should be allowed, and
their views he will as far as practicable, base
his suggestion, The G., l., St. L. & G. and the
to report, and the arrangements of both are
rather Indifferent as to carrying through bust
ness unless better rates can be maintained, more
especially while local traffic is so satisfactory.

ssSpOtters.''

In tho Lafayette Morning Call there is a
lengthy letter from conductor w. P. McVay, of
this city, detailing the performances of man
named M, represented to be the king bee
of the detectives, or spoilers" as they are
called. On general principles, and in particular
characteristics, the ''spotter" is about the most
despicable individual alive, and the corporation
or company which employs them shows itself
to be not only soulless but senseless. If en-
ployes can not be kept honest by other means
than by ''spotters," they never viii be honest
under any circumstances The best method to
secure honest treatment from employees is for the
employer to treat them as honest men,
pay them as honest men; give
them every reason to be honest and faithful If
tho company does this in nine hundred and
ninety cases out of thousand they will be
rewarded with honesty and fidelity. A company
which employs spoilers deserves to have every
thing 1t has stolen from it,

the rumor of Mr., Gould's embarrassment and
gives the latter credit for too much cunning not
to have been able to profit by the storn which
has been so disastrous to others. Yet, if it
should happen that he were obliged to suspend,

more beneficial than hurtful to the sorely -tried

A Commissioner of the Right Sort.

The general tenor of the remarks of railroad
officials concerning railway State commissioners
is IN favor of Them if they are of Che right sort
sotospeak and perform their official duties justly
Said a geneFalmanager yesterday: They are GER
taiif to result in good to the State and the railway
corporations An intelligent commissioner
brings to the public better knowledge of the
difficulties involved in the transportation prob
lem, and a surer recognition of the advantages
which the railroads supply to the country 1t
also establishes stability of value for railroad
property, and gives confidence to investors.
The railroad commissioners of Georgia stand
out as model officials While defending the
rights of the citizen they are equally vigorous
in protecting the rights of the railways They have
no sympathy with The ene-sided sentiment that
wenld view the railroads as enemies, or as
objects to be pIucked and robbed by the estab
lishment of rates that would deny them n fair
profit The Georgia commission is composed of
practical business men who as WELL have some
railroad experience and no measure of injus-
tice toward the railroads can have their sanction
any more than injustice from the railroads to-
w1Fd the people. Under the commission rail
road stocks and bonds have appreciated in value.
New roads have been and are being built and
equipped. More miles of railway have been laid
in the State and are being laid since the COM
mission law went into effect than ever before in
the same length of time. There is not a rail
road official in Indiana who would object to a
commission of such a character in this State

saying that negotiations were pending between
him and the Wabash people looking to drop

railroad man to make the road earn for the year
to come as much as in 1880, yet with the econ
emical management and friendly feeling for the
former officials of the road, the lost ground will
soon be recovered. Phe fact is that the location
of the road makes it valuable chiefly as local
road and as part of the Wabash or any other
system it is of but little valre. Under the Malatt
arrangement the road was operated harmoni-
ously with all connections while since the Wa
bash has operated it nearly all harmonious con-
nections have been severed. This trouble has
