What Prominent G. A. K. Men Say
 Of the Alleged Split.

l INDIAN Afolis, IND Dec. l.-IDe so-called split in the Grard Army of the Republic, which originated her., continues an urpermost theme in veteran circles and with the lo cal press. That the movement has been greatly exaggerated by the Eastern press, IS admitted on all sides here.
 Ma Irwin Robbins, one of tho xCommanders of George H. Thomas Post, who was probably more prominent in organizing Dem- oeratc soldiers during the cam psign than any other man in the party, is not member of the asso- ciatlon formed by AdJt .Gencr.l koontz, having declined 10 join fl. There arc many other Democratic ex-soldiers of prominence who do nos belong to the organization, among them Gov. Gray, Col Zol- l hngs, Ma Mitchell and others.
 Maj Mitchell, who is promi- nent Democrat and the Prosecuting Attorney for thls (MMion) county. speaking of the matter this eve hing, sad: "As q member Gf the q. A. K, can say that during al tn, time I have belonged to Geo. II. Thomas P ost, politics never, n [ any time, in any shape, manner or form, entered into the work of the Post any more than politics may be introduced in church or fam,iy relations. IL cannot be made any more of political organization than the order cf Masons. Odd Eel lows, or Knights Of Pythias.o

The churches were generally open for
service to-day for the first time in many
weeks The attendance was good. Early
in the epidemic the board of health officially
discouraged gatherings of the people, fear
ing greater spread OF the infection by this
means. Since then, the infection having
become general, the people have lost all fear
Of taking the disease by mingling together.
In an editorial this morning the times
UAtoh strongly urge1 general attendance
at the church services as having beneficial
effect in bringing the people together and
by stimulating the social side of life, help to
restore the remnant OF the population TO lts
normal condition of activity and the pur-
suit Of ordinary avocations.
Three funerals have passed the MORNING
NEWS bureau to-day, one of them with
several carriages containing friends ana
the young wife of the deceased-A. b.
Thrasher. He had teen married only a few
weeks to his second wife-a young lady
and she is heartbroken over her loss.
Mr.. Thrasher, who died to-day, was a
well-known horseman, and was manager
for the last few months of the livery stable
of j. II. McGinnis.
A PLEASANT EVENT.
This afternoon q very pleasant event oc-
Cured at the medical bureau. To-day was
the birthday Of DR.. Porter, the government
surgeon in charge, and the attaches. physi-
clans and employees determined to give him
pleasant reminder. The doctor is very fond
of flowers, and always has fragrant bouquets
on his table. All the preparations were
made to-day without his knowing anything
about the matter. At 3 o'clock the doctor
was called into side room, where rested
two magnificent floral wreaths, and
one of the visiting doctors pre-
sented them in a neat little
speech, alluding in a most complimentary
manner to the doctors work and their ap-
probation of him, Officially and socially. "
The doctor was entirely overwhelmed, and
though he has faced microbes unflinchingly,
yet speech was too much for him, but he
thanked them all very gracefully and
heartily and assured them that he should
value the tokens of their esteem very highly.
The wreathes were very handsome. One
had a floral cross bar, with the word
Porter" in green on white background
! DIR. Porter has won the respect of all by his
manly demeanor and is very popular. He
combines in rare degree the skillful physi-
clan and surgeon and the shrewd, far-seeing
business man.
DR.. Neal Mitchell's birthday also occurred
to-day. DR.. Porter is "a years old, and Dr.
Mitchell is 40. The latter was also the re-
cipient of gifts.

BARRICADES CHICAGO.
THE AIR BLACK WITH MISSILES
HURLED AT A CAR.

The Riot After the Blaine Parade Fol-
lowed by a Second One Yesterday
Afternoon-Police Disperse the Mob,
but 1t quickly Reassembles-No One
Seriously Injured.
CHICAGO, Oct 21.-Judging from the ex-
periences of this afternoon and last night,
the imported conductors and drivers in the
employ of the North Chicago Street Rail
way Company will continue to have, in
definitely, "a hard road to travel" Fully
800 old hands are now out of work, mainly
owing. they claim, to the unfair construc-
tion placed by President Yerkes upon the
agreement of last Sunday. All these men
and their sympatnizers are intensely bitter
in their denunciation Of the new men.
LIKE THE BARRICADEs OF THE COMMUNE.
In addition to the outbreak after the
Blaine procession last night, there was
another serious tumult this afternoon. Civ
bourne avenue and Halstead street was the
scene of tie disorder to-day. AT this point
huge timbers aud loads of brick were sud
denly, and with no little show of system,
thrown across the street, forming series Of
Instructions resembling, in some respects,
regulation barricades.
AN UGLY MOB.
The neighborhood is densely populated
with working people and these being idle on
Sunday, filed the sidewalks, windows and
housetops. All the women passengers and
several of the men ON the first car to
approach had been frightened Off by crowds
of yelling boys before reaching the
obstructed corner. A couple of strangers
in the city, a reporter. the conductor and a
driver, and two policemen, acting as
guards, were the only ones who remained
THE CAR BOMBARDED.
When the car was Thought to halt the
air became black with missiles fving from
the house-tops and windows. The car was
literally bombarded.
Shouts and imprecations of all kinds were
as plentiful as the missiles, the lead in this
part Of the affair being taken by women
mixed in the mob. The riot virtually ended
like the one Of last night, with the arrival
of patrol wagon filled with police. The
crowds were dispersed without serious
trouble.
TWO OFFICERS MoBBED.
The mob reassembled Immediately, how
ever, when the wagon departed. A pris-
oner was rescued from two officers, who
were left behind, aud the pair of police
were being roughly handled, when the
wagon returned again in the nick of time
So far as known, not person was hurt
dangerously.

BLAINE'S BLUNDER.
His Statement About the Covington
Banks NonsensicaL

WASHINGTON, Oct. 21.-Blaine has been
laundering again. The policy of depositing
public funds in national banks seems to
have new pitfall for him every time he
approaches it. Speaker Carlisle said to-
night, when he was shown the charge that
Blaine made in his Chicago speech last
night, that the Secretary of the Treasury
had deposited 100000 in four Covington
banks to aid Carlisle's reelection: 'fMr.
Blaine has been making series of remark
able statements in his western speeches. II
this statement about the Covington banks
is correctly reported, it is simply
absurd. OF the four national
banks in Covington which have
received government deposits since the
present administration came in, two are
differed by republicans, one by democrats
and republicans, and one only by democrats
alone. All received the deposits given them
on precisely the same terms as the banks of
Augusta, Me-, which are now government
repositories. As Secretary Fairchild said,
it was all matter of business and not of
politics. The charge that it was done to
help my reelection is simply nonsense
There never has been the least doubt of my
reelection

ITALIAN ASSASSINS.
A Society in New York that Ruled Its
Members bY Terror.

ASLADSrS py 1SrTOF
NEW York, Oct. 2l.-Francisco Iata,
Natalie Sabatano and Giuseppe Canizzaro,
who have been occupying cells in the tombs
on suspicion of being concerned in the MUIR
der of Antonio Flaccimio, whose dead body
was found on the street near Cooper Union
a week ago, have all made confos-
sions to INSPECTOR Byrnes about the
murder. Floccimio was marked out for
death for some time back. He belonged to
society known as the Mafie. 1t Furnishes
by death any member who divulges its Sc
crets, or gives information to the police
concerning the identity of any Of its mem
bers who have violated the laws of the
land.
KNEW HE MUST DIE.
Flaccimio had done both and knew he
was to die. He arranged with his son to
carry on his business in case of his sudden
disappearance. On Sunday, Oct. IA, be
was enti ced into an italian restaurant at
No. 8 st. Marks place, and a game of cards
was made the grounds for quarrel between
him and Carlo Quarteraro. The three men
imprisoned now swear that they saw Carlo
and Vincenzo Quarteraro follow Flaccimio
into the street. Francisco Iata says that he
accompanied Flaccimio, and that he sought
to prevent the murder
THE KILLING.
Vincenzo made lunge at Fleccimio and
Iata dashed him aside. Carlo Quartz
raro then jumped forward and
plunged dirk into Flaccimios
breast. There were altogether nine
Italians on the scene, and all, with the ex-
ception of Carlo, returned to the restaurant
and took an oath of secrecy. Inspector
Byrnes says that several reputable Sicillians
have to belong to the "Mafie" as matter
of protection to themselves. The police ex-
pect soon to have the murderer and his
brothers under arrest.

SPREADING IN THE COUNTRY.
The Necessity of Isolation Illustrated
at Fernandina.

FERNANDINA, FLA, Oct. 21.-The report
to o'clock last night was as follows:
New cases. ......,. ..-.......-s'. ..t'..'-. .'.'s'
Deaths. .-...........-....-. .'..'''s's'''.''''
The deceased is negro.
The medical authorities are urging more
complete isolation of the city, and the es-
tablishment of a Gordon of guards to pre-
vent all ingress.
1t has been discovered in the last few
days that the fever has been carried into
the surrounding country by people coming
into and leaving the city. Twelve cases
have developed in one locality. The board
Of health, in conjunction with the Howard
Association, is giving the matter due atten-
ton and will aid Dr. Ross to the utmost in
carrying out the orders.
Rumors have reached New York that
there is much thieving going on here of
private property. Such reports are totally
without foundation. Tne peculations are
very light. The association has force of
special police on duty to care for the prop
erty of absentees.

RADIcALIsM's FoRLoRN HOPE.
Three Southern states Looked on with
Longing Eyes.


WASHINGTON, Oct 21.-At the confer
ence of the republican senator's called by
William Z. Chandler at his house 'to talk
politics" as the invitations said, the chief
topic was the old hope that the electoral
vote OF some southern state might be cap
tured by the republicans this year The
hope was narrowed down by the conference
to the possibility in Virginia, North Caro-
lima and Florida. The democratic national
committee. learning that the republicans
were again looking in that direction, has
taken pains to ascertain the real state of
affairs in the three states named.
Senator-elect Barbour reports that Vir-
ginia is all right, and Senator Ransom re-
ports that there is no danger of losing North
Carolina, while Senator Pasco makes a
similar report for Florida. The democrats
in all the states named have been warned to
watch the republican attempts to steal the
state electoral vote.

PULsIFER's STRANGE DEATH.

Suicide on Account of Financial Re-
verses Suspected.
NEW YORK, Oct. 21.-The sudden and
mysterious death of Col. R. NJ. Pulsifer Of
the Boston Herald has created great SEN
sation here, and the sad ending of the good
man has been much discussed at the various
hotels to-day. Col. Pulsifer's acquaintance
in New York was very extensive and he was
honored and cordially liked by all who
knew him. He was great believer in the
unlimited possibilities of the material de-
yelopment of the south, and always grew
enthusiastic when discussing the natural
resources Of the southern states and the
heroic post-bellum energy Of the southern
people.
HIS SOUTHERN INVESTMENTS.
He was substantial friend to several
leading Southern enterprises, and contrib
uted generously of his time, tale and
money to the furtherance of their prosperi-
ty. At the time Of his death he was d.
rector of the Savannah, Florida and
of the Florida Southern, one Of
the executive committee Of the Plant In
vestment Company, and president Of the
Marietta and North Georgia railroad. He
at one time had very large interest in the
last named company, Dut recently sold 1T
all out except a small amount of stock, suf-
ficient to qualify him as president, hence
his death will in no wise affect this enter
prise, his relation TO it Of late having been
purely nominal.
SUICIDE SUSPECTED.
While his death is generally characterized
as suicide, presumably induced by ilnan-
cial troubles, it remains a profound mystery
even to his most infinite friends how he
could have lost his great fortune.
