Mvsterious Disannearancc of Money.


Fort WAYNE, Ind, Oct. Chicago
Times Special, "A farmer named Craig, who
recently purchased a farm in this county,
called at the Office of the American Express
company to-day for q package OF money that
he was expecting from his brother, who lives
in Omro, Wis. This money he was to use in
making final payment on the farm. The
package which was received here on the I'D,
was handed him. 1t was shipped from
Chippewa Falls, Wis. which is the
most convenient railroad point to
Omro, and left the former point on the
2Dth or 2lst. Mr. Craig receiptcd for the
package, which was supposed to contain
about $4,000, and it was opened in the pres
encc OF w. Il. Chapman, the express agent
and George Torrance, the real estate agent
who made the sale Of the farm. When 1t was
opened it contained slips OF paper cut from
tile Milwaukee Sentinel. The surprise of all
the parties can only be imagined. All they
can do Is to wait further developments. The
theory advanced at this end of the route is that
Mr.. Craig handed the money TO another party
to express, and that IL was never expressed.
This theory is supported by the fact that Il
common envelope, addressed in what Is sup
posed to be Mr.. Craig's writing, nclOsed all
the papers, and the envelope had been opened
at the end and doubled over and placed In

little court room was crowded to the utmost
capacity this morning by attorneys OF can
didatcs and others interested in the result of
legal proceedings before him In connection
with the delivery of certificates of election
TO four candidates for senator from Hamilton
county. The matter had been argued and
submitted to him on a ammrcr, and on mo-
tion to dissolve the restraining order hereto
fore issued by him in favor of the four TCpub-
]ican candidates on their petition. He rem.
dered his decision ut considerable length,
holding as to the demurrer:
There was no ntSjoinder of parties, that
four candidates could sue together or scpar-
atCly
.. The court had jurisdiction not to de-
clare who shall hold Office, for that was clear
ly the province of the legislature upon con
test bat to declare who was entitled to the
certificate, for that was personal
right separate from the title TO
Office. He also held that it
was not necessary, in order to obtain the aid
OF the court, to prevent rrcpardble injury, to
more than make out prima facie case, while
in this case the aYermentS of fact in the peti-
tiOn were insufficient, yet the plaintiffs were
entitled to amend in that particular II neces-
6ary, and in any case they were entitled to an
order to stay the hand Of the clerk until the
merits Of the case could be determined by
another court. The injunction was
therefore continued in force and the manda-
mus case, including the same points, was
taken up by the circuit court.
The entry In the election injunction before
Judge BuchWalter gave the plaintiffs twenty
days In which TO amend and continued the
restraining order of the court. Mandamus
