leaving the impression among his friends that
he was an embezzler During the time inter
vening between letting his reisfive have the
money and the date of his leaving ne was en-
abled to pay ont of his own earnings the 81, 100 he
sent to his PittsbHrZ creditor. Though pub
fished to the world as an embezzlsr, he had IN
reality never himself used dollar of the money
entrusted to him, and had gone away without
cent
As will be seen by his letter to Mr. Florea be
requested that the money be not sent ont to the
creditors for three weeks. Yesterday the money
was sent to all of the creditors directed, and
blank receipts TO be returned accompanied them.
The fact that Beal requested that the money be
withheld for three " eeks Is taken as proof that
he desired time to get out of the United States
again and il Is supposed that he ia now ont OF
the country. It also evident that all the let
ters were written before IA came to this coun-
try. They were written with type writer and
and prepared with the utmost care. In
order keep secret his abidn g-Diace, not an adj
dress date was attached to any paper he sent
The supposition is that Beal has been In Aus
tTalia ever since his disappearance and has prob
ably reached his far-oh home again. after travel
ing ell the way to America to repay with hard
earned money a deficiency that he himself YVES

Another interesting feature of this strange
case is that yesterday Mr. Florea discovered
that Beal has become the heir to the estate OF
relative, which is valued at several Thousand
dollars, but with so slight clew it IS doubtful

HOLDING ON FOR HIGHER PRICES.
The Only Drawback to Great Activity in the
Real Estate Market.

Real estate agents are well pleased, both with
the number of sales that were made during the
last week and the aggregate amount of business
done. Downtown property changed hands at
handsome advances over prices that ruled
year ago. and the trade in unimproved property
about the city continues very active
While business is comparatively good, it is
acknowledged on all hands that double as much
property could be sold if owners would accept
tenders of prices which they would gladly have
taken six months ago. There is only one COM
plant about the condition of the market
sion to, and that is the fear of
owners TO let 90 when offered what they have
been asking. Il have had great deal of
dealer yesterday SIN half-dozen instances /
have bsrgained for the sale of property, but was
unable to carry out the bargain because the
owner concluded that he not get
ting much he should have. The
great draw back is that many people are holding
off in anticipation of fabulous prices. They will
be disappointed, for all the indications that
fancy prices are not going to rule. although
there will, perhaps, be a steady increase in val
nations as the city grove, aud new improve
The bulk of last weeks sales were of unim-
proved property. The usual number of outlets
changed hands at about the same prices that
have been ruling since the beginning of the
year. The deeds recorded during the week
numbered seventy Ave. representing property
valued at $l49 GAG. 3d. Yesterday was the best
day of the week, aud one of
the best of the year. Twenty-eieht dee DIS
were recorded. with total consideration of
$81, 900. Among the more important transac-
tions of the week were the sale Of the block on
the northwest corner of Washington and Mis-
sissippi streest by the heirs of Henry Schaub to
Chauncey l.. Turner for SIS. 900, and the sale of
the Smith Block, West Washington street.
between Mississippi and Missouri streets, by
Georeiana Smith to John E. Kerr for $40, 600.
While the building season has not yet fairly
opened. contractors are beginning 10 do consid-
cradle outside work and closing many
tracts. AS yet they are backward about making
specific statements of what contracts have been
closed. but they unite in saying that
there never was much building
IN sight at this season of the year. So far the
work in sight consists of the erection of dwelling
houses about the outskirts of the city and
nearly all of the fifteen permits issued during
the week called for such buildings. The only

Low RATES POR GAS.
Beginning of the Competition Between the
Trust and the Indianapolis Company.

The Indianapolis company has for the past
two days kept gas at 100 pounds pressure in its
trunk-line in giving it the fullest test preparato-
ry to thro wing the gas into the Meridian street
mains. On Monday work will begin on the sys
tenn according to the plans submitted TO and APP
proved by the City Council and Board OF Alder
men. Some of the pipe has already arrived and
enough more will be here on the day named to
enable the company 20 reach within
a week or two many of tho consumers
with whom it has made contracts.
The work is to be pushed vigorously
until the whole system is laid. Yesterday the
directors were in session with large variety of
mechanical appliances before them, while
eral representatives of the manufacturers or
natural gas supplies waited an opportunity to
give their propositions an extra support In stat
ing that their principals we're ready to sell APP
pliauces as low as anybody. This was meeting
the purposes the company has Ia regard to dis
posing of its gas, which the directors
also talked about They have decided
to let the people have the benefit
petition give them. 1t was suggested
to George F. Branham, the companys presi-
dent last evening. on the authority of the
News, that the Trust had cut 10 per cent below
meter rates and offered gas 10 manufacturers at
6 cents THAT is nothing" Mr. Branham re-
piled. I'VE are Offering gas to manufacturers
at cents and willing to contract on that
basis. If the manufacturer furnishes the meter
we will sell him gas at cents"
reporter said
THAT is what it means, Notwithstanding the
statement we will not be able to reach the larger
part of the factories by our system. From our
high pressure mains will radiate low pressure
pipes wherever ten manufacturers want them
to come We will be able to reach any of
them who wish to take gas at low rates.
The gas in these radiating mains will flow under
five pounds pressure, which will guarantee an
ample supply"
twill you enter into competition for the do
mestic consumption
''Most decidedly. 1t is the intention of the
company to supply gas to everybody. That is
why are here. And gas will be sold by US.
not only at the ordinance rates. but low, and
if necessary lower. than the price of any other
company We will always be ready to go any
competition one better. All consumers making
contracts with us will get the benefit of evsry
reduction made. The company will in every
way protect it's customers"
The Trusts pipe is being received daily in
from to fifteen carload lots. 1t is being dis
tributed along the line, and there is but little
distance yet to supply. Work in trenching will
begin in a few days The shareholders
paying in on their fourth assessment which is
not due until tomorrow. The payments so far
have been encouraging and satisfactory

A DOUBLE MARCH

March, the month, generally
makes more noise than any other of
the twelve. The march of improve
ment-that can't make too much
noise. Indianapolis is in both now.
We are in indianapolis. Our part of
the march of improvement consists,
among other things, of passenger
elevator-the only house of the kind
in the city that has one-and a gen
eral enlargement which gives us
seven stores in one. Draperies,
curtains. wall papers. carpets, rugs
and all that have their separate
rooms. and as you go from one to
the other, and are carried from
floor to fioorin the elevator, you may
get realizing sense of the way in
which we are keeping up with the
procession-them march of Improve
ment with big ''I'0-on which
indianapolis with another big "l")
has entered.

GATHERED FROM THE COURTS.
Beginning of the Litigation Over the VIII O
the Late James G. Douglass.

Beginning of the Litigation Over the VIII OF
the Late james G. Douglass.
The litigation over the will of the late James
G. Douglass began in the Circuit Court yester-
day with the hearing of evidence on the petition
of the widow asking that the viii be not allowed
to go to probate. When the will was presented
to the probate clerk, several months ago. he de-
clned 10 file il because he had been notified that
objections to its being probated would be made.
The question referred 10 the Circuit
Court The grounds for the objections
stated by the counsel for the widow, are that
the real estate described in the will except
three pieces which are mortgaged, were disposed
OF by the deceased before her death, and that
such conveyances have rendered the will nuga-
tory. The attorneys for the legatees under the
will contend that these grounds are not sub
stantisted by the evidence. The trial of the
cause is made very tedious. a il requires
business transactions from the time the will was
written until his death.
