INDIANA'S TREASURY
Said to Be In a Very Depleted Condition

Said to Be In a Very Depleted Condition.
Special Telegram.
IyDIANAPoLIs, Ind, Feb. 8.-The investi-
CATION Of State Treasurer Cooper has given
rise to a thousand rumors and complaints
which all center upon his devoted head For
example, NJ. W. Coats, treasurer Of Wabash
county, is reported TO have said that the state
treasurer could not, or would not, pay the
school apportion meDt, and 1t was only after
great and many efforts that he Coats Oh.
tanned the Wabash county allowance. The
treasurer denounced the statement as
false and produced correspondence, slowing
that the money had been paid promptly upon
demand. The treasurer further says that
the five counties which have not drawn their
school funds can have It as soon as they file
the settlement sheets and ask for money.
In the auditors offices matters are interest
ing to a high degree. The members Of tie
general assembly aud various state employees,
who were aware that the general fund was
reduced to a pittance, were rushing In draw
ing an allowance before the last dollar vas
gone. The funds were figured out aud 1t
was found that the total Of all monies in the
state treasurer's hands was S237. 337 .s3. OF
this only SLIP belonged 10 the general
fund-that "a the money available for
general expenses, which Is now al
most exhausted The exhausted condition of
the general fund has led 70 various rumOrs,
which have spread the inference that the
treasurer mas suspended payment, that the
auditor has refused 10 issue warrants, etc.
Hence the wrath on the part Of the officials
concerned. There is t275, 245.64 In the
eleven special funds, but this cannot be used
except for purposes specified. Amorg these
funds are the new state house, college loan,
permanent college endowment, school, etc,
and ali demands against these can be met
The exhaustion OF the general fund has been
attributed 70 a sbOrtuess In The treasurer's
accounts, but the folly Of such rumOrs Is ap-
parent, since Il Is the auditor who shows the
condition Of the fund and so long az he Issues
warrant, there 10 presumably money on hand

husband sought relief in the divorce suit just
terminated. A large number of witnesses
were examined, nearly all of whose testi-
mony was damaging to the woman. The
evidence Of the woman was remarkable for
its structures on her husbands conduct dur
ing their married life. She accused him of
having beaten her in the most brutal man
ner, and of having nearly starved her. In
addition he had offended her sense OF tidi-
ness by washing his feet in the dish pan,
drying them with tea towel, and scraping
them with a silver knife belonging
to her. This testimony was given in the face
of the fact that she had embraced and kissed
him during the session Of court to attest her
affection for him. While giving her evil
dence she assumed the most dramatic atti-
tudes. The husband gave painful story of
his married life. He was subjected to the
most .humiliating injustices, and narrowly
escaped heing badly hurt several times by
missiles, in the shape of washbowls and pitch
ers. In several instances she treated him to
odorous shower baths. Tue case will be ap-
pealed to the supreme court

CLEYEL4ND At GRATsTOYE,

The fact that Mr.. CLEVELAND visited Mr..
TuDES at tue latter's country home, and
that together they spent quiet Sabbath day,
viii give the newspapers and political specu-
laturs vast deal to gossip about. There is
perhaps no real significance to be attached to
this visit Of the President elect to the grand
Old man who stands as the truest living rep
resentative Of lis party to-day, beyond a
courtesy due from the position Mr.. CLEvE-
LAND holds at the hands Of his party to the
Hau who above all other men is enthrOned
in the hearts Of all Democrats. 1t was just
tribute to great man.
But, II Mir. CLEVELAND was seeking for
wisdom to mid him in the performance Of the
arduuus and responsible duties be will soon
assume he could have gone to no
better source than Graystone, for
the master Of the mansion Is the
embodiment OF political wisdom In everv-
thing MIR. CLEVELAND has shown wonderful
discretion. aud has inspired the country with
confidence in his Judgment and the integrity
Of his motives, but he has done nothing that
will be more gratifying 10 the American peo-
pie than his visit to Mr.. TILDEN, aud the be-
lief that while there he would avail himself
Of the wise counsels that the venerable sage
would give him.
It is no easy task that the Democratic
party has before 1t afteI the 4th OF March, in
reforming the Federal administration and
correcting abuses bequeathed by Republican
administrations. In this heritage Of evils
may be enumerated the currency question,
the national bank question, the tariff ques-
ton, the silver question, the shipping ques-
ton, the question Of securing adequate naval
and sea coast defenses, the almost equally
important uusolved question relating to the
Pacific railroads, the forfeiture Of unearned
laud grauts, the protection Of the public
domain, the Murnons, the regulation
Of Interstate commerce, the introduction OF
fair, honest, competent federal civil service
throughout the country, and a thousand and
one other things left over from the do moth
lug policy Of the Republicans. Besides these
old questions the Democrats are threatened
with a number Of new ones In the Nicara-
guam treaty aud the various reciprocity
treaties negotiated by the outgoing admins
trliion, not to mention tho eutanglements
likely to grow out OF the participation in the
Congo Congress
Under these circumstances It IS emiuently
appropriate that Mr.. CLEVELAND should
gather about him the chiefs Of Democracy
for consultation, aud then should round II all
of with visit to the greatest OF American
statesmen, and profit, as he doubtless will, by
tue old mans advice

lows, an ex-Metholist minister, was arrested
here to-day on two supreme court orders,
charging him with criminal aud m alcious
libel. Two years ago Fellows was pastor of
the Methodist church at Henrietta Charges
Of immortality were made against him, and
Rev. S. d. Pickett was sent 10 relieve
him in that church. Fellows became
angry, and last October, as it Is alleged, he
caused to be printed circulars charging DR..
Mason, of Henrietta, who had helped Gust
him, with gross immortality, abortion aud
other crimes. copy of the pamphlet accom-
panyiug the complaint contains language

THE UBTPPJyG POSr REYTYu

The Pen nsylvania Senate says the whip
ping post SHALL be restored in that state.
The revival of this Anticipated method OF pun
ishmeut Is receiving attention In many quar-
tiers. There are some arguments in its favor,
but it does seem that the strongest argu-
meuts are against it. It may be said in favor
Of the whipping post that there Is class Of
criminals deserving this peculiar punish
meut, and there Is no other form Of punish
ment suitable to their offenses. For instance
there Is the chicken thief-the rascal who
robs hen rOOsts, steal articles Of paltry value,
a onstaut nuisance in a neighborhOod, and
yet never engaging in a crime of sufficient
magnitude to put him at bard labor in the
state prison. Confinement in Jail for sixty
or ninety days Is no punishment to that klrd
of a rogue. It is to him the only visible way
Of securing a livelihood. He gets his board
free from the public, aud being a lazy va
grant It suits him exactly to be shut up In
jail for month or two at public expense
Now there is nothing so suitable as pun
ishment for a rascal Of that kind as
4 good logging The whipping post
would DO more to repress crime OF a petty
character than any other penalty that could
be fixed. And then, again, there Il the
wife bester. There would be sort Of po-
etic justice IN iuhictiug this punishment on
a brute Of a man who f. in the habit Of
whipping his wife. People would take de-
light In crowdiug to the public square on
whipping day 10 see an offender Of this
character punished. Another merit the
whipping post possesses is the saving Of ex-
peuse TO the state and a speedy administra-
ton OF justice. On the other hand, the
punishment is brutaliziug in its effects, not
only uoon the recipient bit also upon the
sdministrant. The feeling which prompts
The iuficiiou Of this style Of punishment be-
longs to the retaliating and reveugful emo
tons. aud not to the ennobling ani elevat-
Ing sentiments. Il squints at barbarism
solomon advised wholesome use OF the
rod. but that was only intended for par
cnts and pedagogues, aud in that respect
We never knew an instance where the Solo
mouian theory was accepted by the reciP-
lent With degree Of satisfaction.
However, the revival Of the whipping post
is an open question. If Pennsylvania re-
wives Il, the other states will have an oppor-
tuuity to benefit frvm the result Of her e1-
perisnee.
