viii Quiz Bu.ines. Nm IndIann.

CHICAGO, ILL, March 2.-The Cen
trail Union Telephone Company to-day
issued the following:
To our patrons in Indiana:
This company announces with re-
greet that in view of the recent decision
of the Supreme Court of Indiana sus-
tanning the validity of the law regulat-
ing telephone rentals and toll line
charges, it has voted to decline all new
business in the larger cities, where it
is impossible to furnish services under
the law without loss; to forthwith give
notice of the termination at the earli-
est possible date of the contracts OF all
subscribers in such places; to make
the continuance of exchange business
in smaller places dependent upon the
possibility of continuing under the
law without loss, and to appeal to the
Supreme Court of the United States.
This conclusion has been reached after
a careful and thorough revision of the
estimates which were submitted
to the committee of the Senate
and the Governor of the State,
and upon which the oaths
of its officers impending litigation
were based, showing that the company
could not profitably carry on its bust
ness under the present law. Much
time has been spent in an effort to de-
wise some plan by which all of its ex-
changes and toll lines could be con-
tinued, but to no purpose In conclu-
sion, the company desires to express
to all of its subscribers its thanks for
their patronage, and especially to the
majority, who have felt, in common
with its officers, the inexpediency and
injustice of the law.

The broadway Franchise Scandal.

New YORK, March 2.-The grand
jury of tie Court of General Sessions,
which was sworn into Office yesterday,
was charged to-day by Judge Glider
sleeve. After defining the duties he
said that they should not find an in
dictment unless the circumstances
warranted it. He referred to the al
legged corruption in the securing and
granting of the franchise under which
the Broadway Surface Railroad is now
operated, and said: $50 much has
been written, and so much said, so
full is the air of rumors and accusa-
tions, in respect to the franchise in
question, that it is manifestly the duty
of the law charged with the investiga-
ton and punishment of crime within
this county, to probe this scandal to
its lowest depths and uncover to the
light and to the operation of law and
justice every act. This is your duty.
Let the AK fall where it may, we
have but one code of laws and they
recognize neither color, nationality
nor rank"

The TeIenhone a NecessItx.

ST. LOUIS, Mo-, March 2.-The SUI
preme Court of this State rendered an
opinion yesterday in the case of the
Julia Building Association against the
Bell Telephone Company. The case
came before the Supreme Court on an
appeal from the judgment of the st.
Louis Court of Appeals. The Bell
Telephone Company in erecting poles
on Sixth street, opposite dry goods
store owned by plaintiff, cut through
the stone pavement and removed a
portion of the masonry that forms the
wall of the cellar Of the building.
This the Julia Building Association
claimed would result in great injury.
The opinion, which is very lengthy, is
to the effect that telephone poles are a
necessity, and when a company Sc
cures from the State and city the right
to erect them citizens owning property
adjacent to the street cannot pre-
vent il.

A SENSATION AT THE REVIVAL,

Protests Against the Reverend Gen
tleman's Free and Easy
Methods.

Chicago, March 2.-In his sermon
at the First Baptist Church Yesterday
the Rev. Sam Jones said: "What a
privilege it is to pray. Now, / want
all those who got down on their
knees and prayed before they came 10
this meeting to rise in their seats"
About twenty persons arose in the
auditorium.
The evangelist leaned against the
pulpit and seemed to gasp for breath.
you may be seated now,' he said.
"Why, brethren, ! could find more
prayerful Christians in Hong Kong,
China, than there are in this meeting
to-day. If you can't pray l want you
to take your carcasses out of here.
don't want you to come here if you
can't pray"
An aged man sitting on one of the
front pews leaped to his feet, and in
faltering voice said; "Mr. Jones, ]
don't think it is necessary for person
to get down on their knees to pray. !
consider myself a good Christian and
/ don't like to hear such talk"
81 was about to say the same thing"
exclaimed the Rev. Mr.. Scudder of
Plymouth church. 81 prayed while
on my way to church. God does not
demand that a man shall get down on
his knees before his prayers are
heard"
ANY more exculpatory remarks ?"
growled the evangelist.
DR.. Scudder-They are not exculpa-
tory remarks.
A man with an ear trumpet arose
and punctuated his remarks with Wig
Orous pounding on the rostrum. CDR.
Jones" he began, 81 did not have
time to get down on my knees and
pray for this meeting. / have spent
nearly the entire day reading the Bible
to gambler and a drunkard, and /
think | am entitled to respect here"
Othermen and several women began
to stand up in various sections of the
church, but few explanatory remarks
served to still the tempest, and the re-
vivalist was permitted to finish his
sermon without further interruption.
In conclusion, be said: LET us take
the lesson in the text to our homes and
get some good out of it,"

have been zealously engaged in the

The elders refuse to go, saying they
