LONDON, Sept. l5.-rhe populace oi
Philippopolis, the capital of Eastern Rou-
melia, almost to mao, rose in rebellion
yesterday, seizsd the Governor General,
deposed the Government and proclaimed
a union with Bulgaria. A Provisional
Government was established. The revolt
vas SO we'll planned that no disorder or
bloodshed occurred, every body being in
sympathy with the movement except the
Government officials.
The foreigners in the city are perfectly
safe from harm, as is also the property OF
foreign residents. Immediately alter the
organization OF the Provincial Govern
ment the militia were sworn in, taking
the oath OF allegiance to Prince Alexan-
dria, OF Bulgaria, 1t is generally believed
in diplomatic circles that Russia arranged
the programme Of the rising, and suggest.
ed the union with Bulgaria. No definite
statement can now be made as to what
action the signatory powers to the treaty
OF Berlin will take respecting the matter.
Eastern Roumelia was created by the
Congress Of Berlin in 1878, and was given
an autonomic Government, though form
ing an integral part OF the Turkish EN-
pire. The Governor General was ap-
pointed by the Porte, subject to the ap.
proval OF the treaty powers.
1t is semi-officiaily given out that Prince
Alexander, Of Bulgaria, has been given
assurance oisupport from Russia, Austria
and Germany. A large force Of Austrian
troops has been ordered to proceed TO
Roumelia, which is a 6agrant disregard Of
Turkeys rights.
SOFIA, September 19.-Ths Bulgarian
army has been mobilizad and corps has
been sent to the Roumelian frontier.
Prince Alexander has proceeded to Phil
ippopolis and has appointed NJ. Strausky
as Commissioner. NJ. Strausky is now
President Of the Roumelian Provisional
Government.
PH1LirPopoLls, September l9.-The in.
surgents in Eastern Roumelia, acting
under the orders of the Provisional Gov
eminent, have occupied all the strategic
points on the Turkish frontier, blown up
all the bridges which would likely be
used by q foe advancing from Turkey Ia

Aidrich, man Of As years Of age, with hif
wife and two children, one OF them q
young man of about twenty, live on q
farm eight miles north OF this city, and
one mile east OF Collins Station on the
Detroit, Lansing and Michigan railroad.
The family have been for years the terror
OF the neighborhood where they reside.
Aldrich has been arrested for assaults and
threats.
Some time since Judgment was OBJ,
tanned against him in u Justices court at
Portland, but no officer there would at:
tempt the collection, 80 it was brought to
this city and given to Constable Perry
Chapman, with warning to take help
with him aud look out for himself. He
took with him Geo. Bradley and w!
Ainsley, OF this city, aud went out there
yesterday afternoon. They found Aldrich
and his 20 year old son loading
wheat into some bags. Chapman
stepped up to the wagon where AldriGh
was and said he was an Off
Ger and had an execution. Aldrich
caught up an axe lying in the wagon and
raised it to strike, when Chapman covered
him with his revolver and ut its muZzle
compelled him TO leave the wagon, and,
still covering, told the men TO seize him.
But before they could do 50 the young
man had got rifle aud opened fire on
Chapman, and q woman was coming with
On axe. Young Aldrich fired at Chapman
but missed him and eturned and shot at
young Aldrich, who recovering repeating
carbino opened fire from the house.
Bradley fell at the third shot, but was
helped away by Ainsley. Chapman was
uninjIred, but finding he was alone he
retreated. Ainsley was but slightly injur-
ed, but Bradley is 10 precarious condi-
ton. Ills right arm was amputated late
in the afternoon and he is doing as well as
could be expected. A warrant was issued
for the AIdrichs, two men and the
women, and the sheriff and four off.
GERS went out to secure them. After holding
the officers four hoors with rifles they
finally yielded and NJ miinight were
lodged in jail. Tney still kept their guns
and more trouble was expected. The
house where the Aldlichs lived is boarded
up and walls pierced for ritls shooting on
the plan OF frontier fort, and is nearly
as strong. The family are armed with re-
poating rifles and have for years kept off
officers after the plAu OF Yesterday.

it is expected all delegates will be on the

there is absolutely no ground work upon

INDIANAPOLIS, Sept. 19.-The excite
ment over the gigantic township bond
svindle in Indiana is growing instead Of
subsiding, and every day brings to the
surface new Developments. Where the
matter will end is beyond conjecture. II
is pretty well known that several banks
in the State are loaded down with the
worthless paper, OF which there is consid-
erably over ST 100000 in circulation, and
q crash is expected at any time. In con-
sequence panicky feeling prevails, and
the people are in state Of feyerish excite
ment oyer the condition OF affairs.
Walter Stanton, Of the firm Of Coffin &
Stanton, New York brokers, who sold
$500, 900 Of the warrants in the East, has
been travelling about through the State
during the last ten days, trying to save
something from the wreck for his GUS
toners. To-day he confronted Jacob A.
Shipley, trustee OF Gregg township, Nor
gan county, with about $500 OF bonds
Issued to K. D. Pollard, who was the chief
conspirator in the swindle. Shipley con-
iessed that there had been no goods re-
ceived for the warrants, and that they
were fraudulent.
Stanton at once went before the grand
Jury with the information, and an indict-
ment vas returned against Shipley, who
was sent to jail in default OF bail. This is
the first arrest that has been made in the
case, the others implicated in the swindle
having escaped to Canada. How much
the fraudulent bonds issued by Shipley
will swell the amount is not known.
Two days ago the wife Of Pollard re-
turned from Canada to get some Of the
money that had been left here in the
haste Of their forced flight. She was shad-
owed by detective, and this morning
was summoned to appear in court to
answer to an attachment suit, which ex-
tended to two OF the banks where it was
supposed she had money deposited. To
escape the danger she was likely to en-
counter by being detained, she at once
proposed compromise, and to satisfy the
plaintiffs in the suit, Cohen & Son,
whom her husband had sold S. 900 Of his
fraudulent warrants, disgorged the sum.
Immediately afterward she departed, and
Is doubtless on her way to Canada to join
her husband

matte mission, and they are pushing him
forward in a miscellaneous way. Judge
Johnson deserves well Of his party be-
cause he helped to prostitute to partisan
purposes the highest judicial tribunal in

Of the Bourbon element in the Demo
cratic party because he once took
a leading part in the defeat Of
Johnson n. Camden for the United
States Senate, and because his success
now would be rightly construed to mean
slap in the face for Senator Camden and
the triumph OF the Senator's opponents in

ought to have the support Of the Demo

OF the Johnson family is working the

In one way and another Judge okey

A DOCToRs' FIGHT.
The AllOpaths and HOmoopaths atswords
Points Over the Code.

The AllOpAths and HOmoopAthl At Swords
Points Over the Code.
NEW YoRk, Sept. l9.-The hottest fight
ever known in the medical profession Is in
progress. The thing fought over is the
question whether homeopaths shall be
admitted to the International Medical
Congress, which Is to be held in Washing
ton in 1857. The scheme is to make this
gathering the most remarkable and pro-
ductiye convention OF physicians yet held,
surprising the famous one Of Copenhagen,
and 10 give ample time for the prepara-
ton Of valuable papers by specialists, the
organization was intended to be effected
this autumn, with q competent presiding
officer Tor each OF the many proposed sec
tons. The American Medical Associa-
ton, which is the allopGthic regular body,
was the inviting party from which Issued
the letters to distinguished scientists
throughout the world, asking them to con-
tribute their presence and papers on
appointed themes.
The code question at once came up.
Should homeopathic physicians. be admit
ted to membership in the CongressH The
ms. programme OF . committee OF the
American Medical Association was TO
recognize all legal practitioners. But this
decision was ovisionally reversed in q
conference iu New Orleans, and formally
50 ina subsequent meeting In Chicago,
where the vote was that no homeopaths
should be let in. More than that, allo-
paths who were known TO favor aSsocia-
ton with homeopaths In consultation over
patients were rigidly excluded In the
make-up Of the committees and sections.
This shut out such men as Fordyce
Barker and Shrady, OF General Grants
doctors, beside Iloomis, Jacob, RoosA and
Other allopathic champions OF liberal
code. Res guationS have been numerous
by men who accepted positions under the
original plan; many European celebrities
nave written 10 say that they will not
come II the code question Is taken into &C.
count; and the outlook Is that the con-
gFess may not be held.
The Committee on Organization % hold
Ing meetings in this city, but thus far
without any progress toward harmony.
50 FAR as can be Judged, the allopath1 are
about equally divided. A compromise
seems impossible. The medical Associa-
lions Of Boston, Charleston, Baltimore,
Philadelphia and California have resolved
not TO participate In the congress- II re-
ssHIcHons are enforced against doctors
holting legal diplomas. The Old Code
party is powerful, however, and Inclined
Ioru!C or ruin.
