There is rather an encouraging prospect for
the election of John Fl. Herig. the Republican
candidate for Council in the Twenty fifth ward.
Curry, the Democratic nominee, has found that
there is rather formidable opposition to him in
his own party, owinglng chiefly to his course in
not favoring the admission of the new streetcar
company to this city two years ago.
Allen Caylor, the Republican candidate for
alderman in the Second district, declares en-
phstically, for the information of those who are
not satisfied, that he WILL if elected vote for the

THE TELEPHONE CASES.
Changes Made in the Complaints, and
Answers in the Bradbury Case.

Yesterday, in Judge Taylor's court, the rea
ton of the State of Indiana by Daniel M. Brad
bury against the Central Union Telephone Com
pany came up, when by agreement of counsel an
entry was made. This entry shows that plaintiff
withdraws reply to defendants answer, and the
defendant company withdraws its motion to
strike out portions of that reply. Plaintiff then
filed motion to strike out portion Of defend
ants answer which the court sustained Excep-
tons we're taken, filed, and made part of the
record. Plaintiff then relied his reply and
defendant its motion to strike out portions of
the reply. Defendants motion was overruled
and exceptions taken.
/. The parts of the reply to which the motion
applied are as follows: Denial OF any knowledge
or information as to the predecessor of defend
ant company in the conduct of the telephone
business; an allegation that all persons making
application for telephone service were supplied
without special request with the hand telephone
and card Blake transmitter. one back board and
battery box one magnetic bell and one cell bat
terry, and that no special request was asked to
have full exchange service granted. The plaintiff
claims that telephone service was understood by
the public to mean all of the instruments and
devices enumerated in defendants answer A
denial is made that defendant, through the
press or otherwise, gave notice of having estab-
lished different grades or classes of service, the
charge of the lowest of which is SO. tits charged
that said pretended classification was made
known long after the date claimed, April Is,
1885. and after the passage of the act by the
Indiana Legislature to regulate telephone
charges. It is alleged this classification was
made solely to evade the law. Plaintiff
claims that the service offered him
in the letter of defendants agent,
Sept. 4, 1885, is not the service required to be
given by the law for So per month. 1t is claimed
that said company, in this respect must be gov
erned by the laws OF Indiana and not the con-
tract said company has with the Bell Telephone
Company. The onabeness of the compen-
eation fixed by law is not subject of investiga-
ticn or review by the court it is urged.
Defendants reasons to strike out are on ac-
count OF surpusage, tautology and irrelevant
matter. Plaintiffs motion was to strike out of
defendants answer the paragraph describing the
the head telephone.

Edgar Stark, the cashier of the Cincinnati
Third National Bank. in an interview with re-
porter Of the Chicago Tribune regarding the
Center township warrants which Trustee Kitz
declares are forgeries, states that he believes
that he twill have no trouble in proving that the
warrants are genuine, and not an over-ssue"
When asked if his bank would not lose a large
sum of money if the warrants could not be COL
lected, Mr.. Stark answered: 20, yes; if all the
warrants are declared worthless. We do not
own but So, 500 of them, but we hold large
number of them as collateral If the courts de-
eide that they are no account our loans cannot
be covered, and we will lose. These warrants
are held by people all over the country and
there is the greatest interest as to what may be
the action of the court"

THE PENSION AGENCY.
The Record Gen. Knefler Leaves for His Sue
cessor to Equal-Manson's Weakness.

The appointment Of c. A. Zollinger, exmayor
of Fort Wayne, as pension agent for Indiana, to
succeed Gen. Fred Knefer, was announced yes
terday in telegram received in this city The
official term of General Knefler expires on the
10Th of next month, and several days ago he
wrote to Washington requesting that his sue
cessor should be appointed in time to take
charge Of the Office before the
next quarterly payment of pensions.
which will begin on Dec. 4. for
the reason that he desired to be relieved Of
the responsibility of disbursing over a million
dollars for the new agent. 1t is hardly probable
that Mr.. Zollinger can complete his preparations
for entering upon the discharge Of the duties of
the Office before the expiration of General
Knefer's term. The agent is required to give q
worth not less than double that sum. General
in June, 1877 There were at that
time three agencies in Indiana, but
within month after Genera.
Knefiers appointment the Fort Wayne, Madison
and Indianapolis agencies were consolidated, and
he became the agent for the entire State. There
were then IL, 600 pensioners in Indiana, and the
number has since increased to 28, 600. During
the first year that he was in Office the disburse-
menus announced TO Sl, 4UU, UUV, ana now t00r6 Is
over Sc, 600 600 paid out annually, in addition to
the arrearages, which amount to about So, $780,
600.
What do you think is the possible extent to
which the business of the agency will grown
was asked General Knefer.
II think" he feplied, that there will be 35,-
600 pensioners in Indiana before the end is
reached. There have been over thousand new
pensioners placed on the pay-rolls in this Office
since General Black became commissioner. and
the business of the Department is being rushed
more than ever before"
The salary of the pension agent is now 81, 600
year. Formerly fee of 12A cents on each pay
ment was allowed, and from these fees the agent
had to pay all expenses of clerk hire and sta
tionery.
General Manson was the choice of the soldiers
for the position, but he did not have the personal
favor of Senator Voorhees,, and it was for this
reason solely that he did not receive the appoint
ment. The General Assembly, the national con-
vention of Mexican Veterans, and dozen or
more of soldiers reunions passed resolutions
urging the President to appoint him. but the in
dorsement of the soldiers did not have as much
weight with the administration as the indorse-
ment of Senator Voorhees,, who has not been
disposed in the distribution of his patronage, to
give much consideration to the soldiers. The
reason which he gives, it is said, for not recon-
mending the ''old war horse" is that General
Manson, as Lieutenant governor, in about year
from now, will become Governor, as Gray is
pretty sure to be elected United States senator,
If the next Legislature is Democratic, all Of
which depends upon two contingencies of great
uncertainty.

JACKSON, OHIO, THURSDAY, AUGUST g. 1885.

Thomas E. Jones, Of Bloomfield
Township, called last Wednesday, and
| had a pleasant talk with the old
gentleman. He will be seventy five
years old in November. He came
from Wales thirty five years ago. He
lived at or near Oak Hill before I left
that place. He related some Of his
experience under the Democratic ad-
ministration of James Buchanan. Af-
ter he had paid for his land, he had
ten Sovereigns left. This was equiv
alent to $50. After buying a cow,
and some other necessaries, his money
was gone. He had a wife and six
children, and could not get any work.
He went to his brother, John T.
Jones, and asked him what he should
do John told him he had an old
Welshman grubbing for him, at 35
cents day, and if he could do no
better, to go to work with the old
man, and he would give him 81 cents
per day. Mr.. Jones went to work,
and grubbed for his brother about
two months, at 3744 cents per day.
Mr.. Jones is the father of Richard
T. Jones Esq, of Bloomfield Town
ship, and 7. 7. Jones, of the Iron
Bank of Jackson. d. M.
