Bynum, Hendricks and the Irish.

Indianapolis New Record.
II Bynnm denounced Hendricks as "a liar. a
sneak and hypocrite," Creelman promptly came
to the front and seconded the motion by decorat-
ing Hendricks with the epithet of damned old
traitor" Most lovingly did Bynum and Creelman
pull together In the unhallowed work of defam-
ing Thomas A Hendricks. And now the friends
of the lamented statesman are requested to con-
tribute their votes TO place Mr.. Bynum for b
second term in Congress.
Will they do it? Not all of them. There are
Democrats whose courage is equal to their con-
victions, who believe that when a Demo-
crat like Mr.. Bynum defames a Democrat
like Thomas A. Hendricks that he ought not
to represent the Democratic party, or any
fraction of the Democratic party anywhere
and they are men who can neither be bought,
scared nor caioled They are loyal to principle;
Democrats who, adiniring integrity and purity OF
character, approaching high capabilities de-
voted to the best interests of their State and
country, will never by their suffrages place a
man IN official position who has demonstrated
his inability to comprehend such a Democrat as
Thomas A. Hendricks, but who taking council
of an added brain, and calling to his aid such a
political montebank adventurer as Creelman,
sought by methods born of insanity, idiocy and
malice to lift himself into Office by hurting yul.
gar epithets at "Indana's favorite son."
We speak whereof we know. when we say
there are multiplied hundreds of rish-American
voters who will never again vote for Mr. Bynum
as candidate for any position whatever.

LOUISVILLE, KY, Oct. 9.-Hon Albert S.
Willis, who for ten years has represented this
the Fifth Kentucky-distrct in Congress, was
to-day defeated for denomination at the Demo
cratic primaries by Hon. Asher G. Caruth,
present commonwealth attorney, of this city.
The latter received majority of 1887 in the
city, and has an indicated majority of LOO in
the district. The fight for the nomination be-
tween these two candidates has been
a very bitter one. Caruth was the
Courier-Journal's candidate, on the issue raised
by Willis's recommendation of Mrs. Thompson,
who had held Office under two previous Repub-
lican administrations. for reappointment as post
mistress Owing to the representations of Mr.
Willis that a majority of the Democrats of
Louisville desired the appointment. together
with the Endorsement of Senator Beck, Presi-
dent Cleveland reappointed Mrs. Thompson.
1t is asserted here that the war against Demo-
cratic mugwnmpism and eivl-service reform will
be manifest in opposition to Senator Beck's re-

this election is regarded anti-cvi service, and

Two Dead Bodies Found in Wolf Lake-In-
dications of Double Murder.
Special to the indianapolis Journal
CHICAGO. Oct 10.-On Sept. % John White,
Lynn Graves and John Goodrich went hunting
on Wolf lake, near Hammond, Ind. Late in the
day White was seen swimming ashore, while the
boat and his companions were not to be seen.
When he arrived at the town he stated that
while hunting the boat had upset Graves.
White said, went down at once, while Goodrich
had endeavored to cling to the boat, but
had slipped off and afterwards drowned.
This story. at the time. seemed improbable. The
water in Wolf Lake is very shallow, being scarce
ly more than ten feet deep in any part. Shortly
after the drowning White disappeared, and has
since kept persistently out of the way. Yester-
day the two bodies were recovered. Graves
head was crushed in. as if by the but of gun,
while Goodrichs body showed similar wounds.
The coroner in Hammond took charge of the
bodies and held an inquest. at which it was de-
cided that the two men had died by violence.
The verdict recommended Whites arrest and
examination as witness.

BoSToN,s NEW POSTMASTER.

The President Appoints John nj. COrse, q
SimOn-Pure Democrat.
Washington Special.
The appointment of Gen. John NJ Corse as
postmaster at Boston is satisfactory to the Dem
ocrats here as an evidence of the Presidents dis
position to come down from his chilly reform at

the coming elections. Mr. E. S. Tobey, the post
master who has been suspended. has held the of

had about eighteen months to run before expira-

wumps The stalwart Democrats, however.

land was inaugurated, and last spring Represent
alive Collins who is the chairman of the Bay
State Democratic committee. brought General
Corse on to this city and the two had long con-
versstion with the President Mr. Cleveland then
practically agreed that when a change in the
postofice should be made he would give the ap-
pointment to General Corse, but in view of the
length of time Tobey had to serve, and also of
the policy he had adopted OF allowing efficient
pfneals to serve out their terms he was not
ready to make the change then. Collins picked
out the case of the Philadelphia postofiee but
that only made the President hesitate more to
stir up another opposition. Last week Collins
sent letter to the President setting forth that
the feeling that existed among the Democrats in
his State against the administration was SO
strong that it would seriously imperil even the
two Democratic seats in Congress unless some
thing was done Every appointment heretofore
in the State had been a mugwump, and now if
some simon-pure Democrat should be given a
big Office it would bring the party round all
right He urged that General Corse should be
made postmaster at once. and with such force
that the President yielded and the result was
the appointment to-day.

the docket tomorrow shere will be /, 100 facing
1he court Last year the court cleared up about
400 cases, and with that number as q fair basis
of work for the coming year. the court It may
be said, is nearly three years behndhand, and
with fair prospect of running still further behind
this and each succeeding year. unless Con-
gress does something TO remedy matters
It is conceded on all sides that something
ought to be done TO facilitate and expedite
the work of the court, and various propositions
have been advanced during the past few years
In either House of Congress to accomplish this
but none of them have found favor with both
houses, and so the court goes ahead from year
TO year with its uphill work. The long delays
to which litigants are now subjected are, in
many cases, equivalent to denial or justice,
and the situation is bound to grow worse and
worse each year unless matters are remedied.
OF course it is Congress, and Congress alone
shat can remedy matters; but officials connected
with the court have little faith in immediate
help from Congress, and have no hesitation in
saying that things. are likely to 60 on from bad
TO worse for some time yet to come
The court will meet formally tomorrow, but
will transact no business beyond passing favor
ably upon the applications on file of lawyers who
desire to practice before it. The court will then
adjourn for the day and, in accordance with the
custom and practice of years, will proceed in a
body to the executive mansion, where the judges
will pay their annual respects to the President
On Tuesday business will fairly Begin and a
number of cases which have been advanced on
the docket will he taken up First among these
are what are known as the Boston Pacific
National Bank cases. ten in number, made up of
appeals by shareholders of the bank from the
decision of the United States Circuit Court Of
Massachusetts in favor of the receiver of
the bank, and involving the question of the
right of the Comptroller of the Currency to
assess the bank stockholders 100 per cent of
their stock for the benefit of the creditors of the
bank. Another of the advanced cases is the ap
peal of the Missouri Kansas &5 Texas railway
from the decision of the United States Circuit
Court of Kansas, vacating the companys title
to 10000 acres of land along the route of their
road in Kansas. Still another of the advanced
cases is that of the Choctaw Indian nation, ap-
psaling from decision of the Court of Claims
Which allowed the Indians $400, 900 for land in

States under the Choctaw treaty of 1920. The

million dollars more.
