gagement at the Museum tonight.

commence a weeks engagement at the Grand
Opera-house next week, opening Monday night
with Wednesday and Saturday matinees. The
excellence of this show has been noticed during
Prof. Morrls's previous engagement in this city;
his dogs are the best trained of any in the coun-
try, and are we'll worth a visit. The entertain
ment has been greatly changed and strengthened
since last year, by the addition of ponies and
new dogs. A valuable pony will be given away
by the management as an inducement for pa
tronage and holders of tickets will be entitled to
a chance.
Up to last night over one hundred entries had
been made for the baby show at the Dime Mu-
scum next week, including the two Chinese
babies from Cleveland, a set of triplets from
Terre Haute, and four pairs of twins from differ
ent parts of the State, besides a couple of
midget babies from this city. The cash prizes
to be awarded amount to over 5000. and a like
amount in fine jewelry will be given away.
Curiosity Hall, where the exhibition is to be
held, has been greatly enlarged and refurnished
throughout. The event promises to be a notable
one.
The Young Ladies' Base Ball Club. from Phil
a~delphia, will play the Empire Club, of this
city, at the Seventh street ball grounds this
afternoon at $50 o'clock.
The entertainment given at English's Opera
house, last night, for the benefit of Dollie Ober-

theatrical profession, was fairly attended, and
the performance was received with favor. The
entertainment will be repeated this afternoon
and this evening, with a change of programme
at each performance. "a Kiss in the Dark" will
be presented. The usual low prices for admis-
sion are charged.

The situation still a Problem.

Various tentative efforts have been made this
week to inaugurate a general movement for the
restoration of railroad freight and passenger
rates, and in fact it can hardly be otherwise in
the nature of things than that such efforts must
continue to be made so long as the prevailing
troubles continue to inspire them. 1t does not
appear, however. that the current endeavors have
.been other than superficial meetings of agents
TO consider the reorganization of broken
pools, proposals for the prescription of
Btricter pains and penalties and similar
suggestions which have been tried before
and found wanting. 1t is now feared nothing
viii be done at the trunk-line meeting, Monday
next, as the Pennsylvania people are said to
again have their backs up. Since the order
restoring rates on Monday last, all the lines
have been considered on their good behavior,
and their action is sure TO have an effect on the
meeting on Monday. 1t has been discovered
that some of the lines were at their old tricks,
cutting rates both in Chicago and New York.
Every line out of New York cut west-bound rates
except the Pennsylvania, and several of the lines
In Chicago accepted less than the ffteen-cent
rate on east bound grain. Under these circum-
stances it is not likely that the Monday meeting
viii be able to do anything.

Snubbed the Bows.

The Fort Wayne Sentinel says that when Gen
eral Manager Talmage and Superintendent G.
W. Stevens went west from Fort Wayne, a day
or two ago, they stopped at Andrews to inspect
the property of the company. During the after
noon a committee, composed of between forty
and fifty of the business men of Andrews, waited
on Mr.. Talmage in his car, but he refused to see
them. The committee was bent on proving they
had nothing whatever to do with the Knights of
Labor trouble at Andrews, which resulted in the
recent machine-shop lock out. When the com
mittee left Mr.. Talmage was heard to remark
that if it could be proven that the citizens had
anything to do with this last trouble with the
Knights of Labor in their machine shops he
would take the shops away from there at once.

DENIED A NEW TRIAL.
An Important Decision by the Supreme
Court in a Wells County Murder e.

The Supreme Court yesterday rendered de-
cision affirming the Judgment of the Wells Cir
cult Court in the case against William Walker,
who was convicted about a year ago of voluntary
manslaughter and sentenced to Imprisonment
for a period of twenty-one years. Walker, in
1883, killed George Shaw, a former postmaster
at Button. The decision of the Supreme Court
is of some extraordinary Importance. One Of
the jurors before whom the case was tried, when
examined, stated that he had formed an opinion
from newspaper reports. from common talk in
the neighborhood. and from talking with wit
nesses but not with eye-witnesses to the trans
action; that the opinion he had formed had made a
deep impression on his mind; that he supposed it
would take more evidence to influence his judg-
ment than if he had formed no opinion. 1T is
true, the court says, that an opinion formed
from conversations with witnesses of the trans
action" does absolutely disqualify a person
from serving as a juror in a criminal cause. Or.
5. 1881, Sec. 1898; 100 Ind, 2o9. But this per
emptory disqualification applies only to opinions
formed from conversations with witnesses to the
transaction constituting the gravamen of the
offense charged, and not to opinions based
upon conversations with witnesses to some
merely incidental or collateral matter connected
with the trial. Evidence of the general moral
character of the accused previous to the alleged
homicide was not admissible. The court also
holds, in reference TO another point that was
raised, that insanity is a fact which cannot
be proved by reputation. The elaborate instrre-
tons on insanity are set out In the opinion, and it
is held that, considered as a whole, though some
what defective, they contain nothing prejudicial
to the appellant. AT 6 o'clock in the evening of
the last day of the term, the court adjourned, to
resume the case on the following day, it being
evident that the cause could not be determined
at that term. Because the court did not sit I'M
til midnight shows no premature order, and the
action of the court was clearly within the mean
ing of Section 1879, r. S., 1881. The power to
the court also rules, extends to criminal as we'll
as to civil proceedings. Upon these conclusions
the appeal for a new trial of the case is over
ruled, and the judgment of the lower court is
affirmed.

THE DANGER OF TRACK WALKING.
The Observations of an Inveterate Railroad
Pedestrian About the Perils of the Habit.

The death of Mrs. Wilson's two little girls.
and her own probably fatal injury, by being
knocked from a bridge by a freight train, near
North Salem, the other day. suggests a lesson of
caution, a tie-walker remarks to the Journal,
to persons who occasionally walk railway tracks
in preference to pixies or dirt roads. The reasons
of this preference are obvious and strong enough.
Railway tracks are never muddy, and rarely
dusty to a pedestrian. But they are never safe.
The most inveterate track walker of this CITY.
who has, almost daily, for twenty years, made
excursions of three or four miles and back on
some one or another of the roads here, says that
he has several times escaped an unexpected en-
CINE so narrowly that his hair, what there is of
it, fairly. raised in fright as the peril rushed past
him but a moment too late to crush him. A few
minutes of absorbing thought, of intent exam
ination of some object of interest, an intervening
house to muff1e the noise, may allow a train at
full speed to come upon a man so suddenly that
he can't escape, and an engineer, naturally think
ing him aware of the train, and confident that
he Will step off in time, does not ''slow down."
and may not think it worth while to whistle, and
a life is lost in the most horrible way. On a
bridge the danger is doubled, and worse, for
upon many there is no way of getting aside from
the sweep OF a train, and the only escape is by
dropping through the ties and holding to them
with a death grip" Singularly enough, there
is far more danger on the double-track road than
on a single one. On the latter there is but one way
for a train to do harm-that is, coming unwarned
behind the ~track-walker, as that did at North
Salem. On a double track a walker steps out of
the way of a train ahead of him to the next
track, and never thinks of one approaching the
other way on that track, while he is looking IDLY
after that just passing him. Whoeve. goes out
of the city on a double-track road, for exercise
or business, needs double caution. He is safe on
a wagon-road always, while he never is on a rail
Way.

not, in any sense, a candidate for mayor. 1

citizen might be proud if it came to him with no

An Attempt at Suicide.

About 1890 o'clock last evening, George
Collclazier, twenty eight years old, and who lives
with his mother at the corner of North and
Douglas streets, went into a saloon at the corner
the people there that he intended to commit
suicide, and took a small dose of morphine out
of a package of thirty-two grains which he had.
He said he was tired of living because he could
get no work as a teamster, although he was
promised employment next Monday. He was
taken home in Flanner & Hommon's ambulance
where he soon revived.

There is a possibility of Indianapolis becoming
As important a grain center as six and eight
years ago. when "a, 900, 600 bushels of grain were
handled annually. The last few years Indian
apoiis roads have allowed the idea to grow with
them that only through business was worth
looking after, and indianapolis, as a result, be-
came little else than a way station, and with
this grain dealers moved to Chicago and other
points where there was O field for them to oper-
ats IN Gradually freight men are again coming
40 their senses, ana looking after their local
traffic, and with this the prospects for indianapolis
are frightening somewhat. Albert S. White,

the Decline, has received instructions to protect
the local business of indianapolis, and If a party
wishes TO ship grain from points on the |. & st.

choice OF routes eastward, he can do so and not
gay as high a rate from the western point to In

So Far So Good.

The bonds upon which the Union Railway
Company propose. to raise funds to build a new
Union Depot at Indianapolis and make other
improvements, and which were drawn up by
Vice-president Malott and the attorney Of the
company, meet with the approval of the proper
officials of the roads which are members of the
company. The next step is to place them-there
are several parties who are ready to take
the entire amount-$1, 900, 0O0-the Adams
Express Company being one of the
plumber. 1t is believed, however, that
they can be placed at a lower rate of interest
than the Adams Express Company would be
willing to accept. Yet, as the Pennsylvania
company is a large stakeholder in the Adams Elk
press Company, and also holds one of the largest
interests, owning or controlling four of the
eleven roads which are members Of the Union
Railway Company, it is thought quite probable
that the bonds will eventually be placed with
the Adams Express Company. However, with
lndianapolitans this is a trivial matter. What
is wanted is that the Improvement be commenced
without any more dilly-dallying.
