NahpELLo's AccoMpiteE
ug srlii CLAIMS TO HAVE HAp TWO
THE POLICE THEORY.

THE PoIICE THEORY.
Nardello, the murderer, still insists
that Gesimente and Abondante were his
accomplices. The police investigated
the matter thoroughly and found wit
nesses to prove that the two men were
asleep at Gaudio's boarding house on
the morning of the murder. Gesimente
intended going with Rotuuno, in order
to get work also, but was persuaded out
of It by Gaudio.
Villa c. Morrow, the colored girl ar.
rested with Nardello, states that she
bought two tickets for Baltimore at Mar.
dello's request, but that she did not in'
tend leaving the city. One Of the
tickets, she claims, was bought for
another girl named Florence, living
somewhere on Eleventh street, and fire..
quently visited by Nardello. The police
believe that there is some truth in the
girls statement. She has told many
improbable stories, but her statement
about the ticket seems borne out.
Yesterday Nardello requested that
his mother, Filomena Demeo, living relr
Naples, be notified of his arrest Ro.
tunno's sister, Rosnlie, also living near
Naples, will be notified Of the sad death
Of her brother.

RepudiatiOn.

To the Editor of the Indianapolis Journal:
In answer to the article in the Journal Of
Thursday, about the Board of Trade removal, l
will call the attention of it's governors to the fact
that when the present location was decided upon
it was by a vote, in open meeting, of the bust
ness men of indianapolis. The building was
erected on. the faith of this decision and a twenty
years lease taken. That contract was made in
good faith, and when we had our first opening
the citizens were all elated over it's success. But.
alas! what influence one agitator can have over
a quiet and satisfied community is plainly
shown in the last deal of the governors
of the present Indianapolis Board of Trade
in repudiating 1.-THE word is too tame) the action
and contracts of its citizens, and forcing the act
i've members of the Board of Trade, with three
exceptions, to leave a building they are satisfied
with, and which is a credit to our city. The
only reason is they want it on Meridian street,
and want to kill an enterprise, and particularly
the man who owns So per cent. of the stock, and
without thought of the other holders of the
stock, among whom are Henry Schnull. Thos. D..
Kingan, W. r. McKeen, Henry Coburn, Mrs. Wood
G. Tousey, Michael Sells and others. To do
this, they have engaged a room where the Merid-
ian Bank could not see any hour of the day
without gas, and, to use Fred P. Rush's words,
tell wheat from rye. They are paying $500 rent,
or the same that was paid for the Board of Trade
Hall and Offices warmed and convenient, outside
and inside.
This seems a singular way to build up a city
and unite its business interests, especially as
forty-two active members present one day
voted to remain, and two for removal;
and yet this expression taken to the
president of the governors by a committee of
five was entirely ignored. That ''tares" were
sown while quiet business men we're asleep, and
a board of governors packed to kill, regardless
of whom 1t may concern, is true as it is shame
full. How much better to have taken the funds
left of the old organization, paid the rent for
two years, at least carried out the lease contract.
instead of the cowardly way of repudiating an
obligation the business men of indianapolis owe
to the founders of the Board of Trade building,
and which by vote they agreed to. You will say
the writer has stock, but he has not a dollar; and
who would help an enterprise in this city after
such an ending against moral obligations and
business integrity! d. A. RICHARDSON,
Hoosier State Flour Mill.

LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE.
The Board of Trade.

To the Editor of the Indianapolis Journal:
In justice TO many stockholders of the Cham
Der OF and to myself, l ask space to
reply to the accusation in Thursdays journal.
under caption, ga Question of Expediency, "
that l have made myself offensive and annoying
to the board of governors of the Board of Trade;
and would say that a majority of the governors
are personally unknown to me, and 1 to them.
A few a~gitators in that body, who are my per-
sonal enemies, have made it their bust
ness to put me before the board in a light of
being offensive and annoying. They have the
ear of that body while | have not. When any
one of them does as much for the Board of
Trade as l have done, or contributes to
the moderate extent I claim for myself
in advancing the material and commercial
growth of Indianapolis, without causing
financial loss to any one, they may c~riticise me.
But | do not recognize Judge Martindale as
standing in this position. He has not been con-
tinuously a member Of the Board of Trade, and
1t is with Ill grace he assumes to criticise the
management of the Chamber of Commerce or
myself.
The Chamber of Commerce carried the Board
OF Trade, financially, through the panic, and al
ways RENTED the rent when asked so to do

thirty stockholders owning the building, whose
interests are, in all things, to be con-
sidered as we'll as my own. While we are dis
posed to be more than liberal to the tenants of

his wing over it. HENRY c.. WILSON,

other roads show a decreased movement, but
not on a par with that of the roads named. The

react to beget within him patience under trial,
endurance under hardship, submission under
a~fflictIon, heroism of self-sacrifce, resistance of
temptation. and benevolence of conduct"
DIR. Jeffery developed these thoughts at length,
enrlching them by a variety of illustrations, and
descriptive passages. He continued by pleading
that 1t is no objection for any mar to say that he
does not believe that this description of the flu
ture life is true. He would simply answer
that every mans character is influenced by his
ideals, and that no one rises above his ideal or
is better than his ideal. Il submit to an infdel.
to an unbeliever, to a scoffer, whether he would
rather have his wife, who is now a Christian, to
be a woman of fashion and sel6shness, or
whether he does not recognize her nobleness, and
her sweetness and conscientiousness and all the
graces that win his love are enhanced by the
power of the religion she possesses upon her
character. But suppose the scriptural repre-
sentation of heaven turn out to be true. as | be-
lleve 1T will, then we ask what preparation does
an athelstlc, deiStic or worldly concep-
ton of the future life-what preparation
do they afford to fit the man who adopts such
theories for a future life? Evidently, he must
enter the eternal world utterly unprepared for
such an environment. He needs to be forgiven.
and the doctrine of forgiveness is not in his
creed. He needs the indwelling of the Divine
Spirit that shall form the germ of his future con-
ditlon, and he has rejected the overtures of that
Divine Spirit and presumes to enter the presence
OF GOD an unforgiven and an unregenerate
character. He has lived in this life without the
exaltatlon and the publication which the Chris
tan faith would have placed within him. Even
the present life instances all the difference of
effect of these different theories, in the fact that
1t becomes undeniable that men who thoroughly
and reverently live under the influence of a
Christian faith have not only presented nobler
types of character for their earthly condition,
but have been sustained, elevated and fitted for
the glories of the life to come"

The Mexican Revolution.

ST. LOUIS, Dec. 5.-A special from Monterey,
Mexico, to the Globe Democrat, gives the fol-.
lowing interesting account of the political situa-
ton in the State of Nuevo Leon:
Advices from Lampasas, Bustamente and
Nluadama confirm the rumor in regard TO the
organization of a large force in that region to
aid acting Governor Sepulveda. 1t is now
thought that there arc nearly one thousand men
in the immediate vicinity of those cities who
look upon Gen. Juan Zuazua as
their commander, and are await
ing his orders. Governor Sepulveda has
given the revolutionists under Manuel Rod
riguez, the slip, and is now in the mountains
near Bustamente, over 80 miles north of this
city. When his forces make a conjunction with
that of ZuaZua, they will undoubtedly march
south for this city, and trouble will then ensue,
in which it is thought much blood will be shed.
The Ayala, or independent party here, are conf
dent of their ability to defeat the government
force, provided the federal authorities do
not reinforce the troops at this
The forces of Manuel Rodriguez, which are un-
der arms, are scattered in bands Gin the mount
aims, near Santa Rosa, looking for Governor
Sepulveda and party. General Trevino and
General Garcia are now on their way to this
city from the City of Mexico, and will arrive
next Monday. 1t is stated on good authority,
and believed by many, that a compromise has
been effected between the Diaz government
there, and the aforementioned parties, and
that General Trevino has in his possession
1Sk bA0OR1
to Immediately join acting Governor Sepulveda
and take active measures to suppress all bands
of revolutionists in the State. General Naraujo,
who is by far the most influential man in the
northern part of the State, is also said to be with
them en- route, and will go to his home at Lam
pasas, and use his influence there to put down
all revolutionary measures in that community.
On their arrival there. General Garcia will TAXA
the Governors chair, and the federal troops will
take the field.
AS the attitude of the federal government has
heretofore been more favorable than otherwise
to the revolutionists, it is now thought that the
compromise referred to was effected in the fol-
lowing manner: 1t is known that Romero, Sec
rotary of State, and father-in-law of President
Diaz. is Il candidate for President at the presi-
Dental election in 1886. The influence of the
Diaz government is being brought to bear on
Congress to this end. Therefore, it is thought
that Generals Trevino and Maranio,
and Governor Garcia have pledged
themselves to support Romero in the next presi-
Dental election and carry the State for him, if
the general government will not place a military
government over the State, and allow them to
assume immediate control over all federal troops
in the State to re-establish the civil government.
If this compromise has been effected. as sup
posed, the arrival of Generals Trevino and
Naranjo and Governor Garcia will be the
advent of active measures in the field, and the
revolutionists are preparing for this event.

A Scheme Which Meets with Disfavor.

On the proposition to abolish line meetings. The

strongly against the change, but the proposition
Was carried. and this will be the last monthly

Triple Tragedy in Missouri.

Camden county. DIR. Lyons, residing on a farm
near that place, has for several years past,
purely as a matter of charity. cared for an inn
beetle named Williams, who has been considered
harmless hitherto. To-day, without a word OF
warning, the idiot snatched up an axe and struck
DR.. Lyons on the head, c~leaving his skull and
killing him instantly. He then attacked the

her also. A young son of the doctor, hearing

THEIR OWN MEDICINE.
How the Democrats Grabbed the Senate
Presidency Four Years Ago.

LOUISVILLE commercial.
Democratic newspapers are appealing to the
Republican Senators for generous action in elect
ing a presiding officer, who perchance might be-
come the acting President for a few months.
These journalists say in substance that less than
a year ago the people demanded that the Demo
Gratis should take charge of the government
for four years, and that it would be wrong
for the Senate to elect an officer who, by
virtue of his position, would succeed
Cleveland, o%verturn all Of the great
reform" movements, and thus nullify the pop
ular will expressed at the ballot box. Precedent
is against the Democrats; they are the inventors
OF that which now returns to plague the party.
After the death of Garfield. President Arthur
found the matter Of succession just as we find it
now-the Senate was without a presiding officer
and the House was unorganized. In order to
remedy the evil, Arthur called an extra session
of the Senate, that a Vice president pro
tenn. might be chosen. The death of Burn
side and the resignation of Conkling and
Platt produced three vacancies on the Repub-
lican side, giving the Democrats control of the
organization. Messrs. Aldrich, Miller and Lap
ham had been elected to fill the vacant chairs,
and were present, ready to assist in e~lecting
officers. The Democrats refused to allow the
new senators to take their seats until the body
had organized. The majority then proceeded to
an election, and Mr.. Bayard was chosen to sue
coed the Republican Vice-presldent. The Demo
cratic doctors prepared the medicine which was
administered to the Republicans in 1881; they
should take the dose now without wry faces.
