A Syndicate Begins the Work of Buying Up
American Brick-Yards.
Special TO the Indianapolis JournaL
LONDON, July ia joint stock company
was organized here to-day, which is of the
nature of trust. for the purchase of the
principal brick-yards in the United States.
The negotiations have already been prac-
tically concluded with George w. Moore, o
well-known Michigan attorney, so far as
the brick-yards of the city of Detroit are
concerned, the English syndicate agreeing
to purchase the plant and material of the
several yards there for about $780,
The propositions made include the real
estate and good will of each
firm selling out. The brick-yards
of Detroit are said to have
an annual aggregate capacity and output
of S0,OO0,OOO bricks at from Sc to 81 a thou
sand. the yearly business amounting to
over 100000. This capital combination
will be of an entirely different character to
that recently organized to operate the
American breweries. The plan of the
brick-yard trust is to eXtinguiSh the
smaller yards, and concentrate the business
in one or two large yards. New and i'm
proved machinery is contemplated, which
will produce brick at a reduced price. The
syndicate will take charge OF the Detroit
brick-yards within thirty DAYS, according
to the agreements made.

Land Suit Won nv the Government.

MARQUETTE. Mich, July ia jury in
the United States court to-day rendered
of the United States VS.. Thomas Ryan.
Ryan made the government an offer to sell
certain real estate at Sault Ste. Marie. as
a site for the new Fort Brady, for $4,000.
The government accepted the offer. but
found flaws in the title. During the delay
occasioned by the investigation of title the
great boom struck Sault Ste. Marie, and
real estate rapidly appreciated. Ryan's
and his attorneys notified the government
of withdrawal of his offer to sell for Sl2.-
600. But the governments claimed the pro-
ceedings had reached stage where Ryan
had no power to withdraw. In the mean
time Ryan had conveyed to the city of
Sault Ste. Marie a strip of land so feet
wide through the property for street pur-
poses: The government induced the city
to relinquish its claim and commenced an
ejectment suit against Ryan. which has
resulted in the governments favor.

The Imprisonment of Three American Ladies
i'm France to BE Fully Investigated.
Special TO the Indianapolis Journal
WASHINGTON, July 19.-It is said at the
State Department that Secretary Blaine
and Minister Reid have by no means re-
solved to drop the case of the three Amer
lean ladies who are alleged to have been
unlawfully imprisoned by officials at Men,
tone, France. Minister Reid has the matter
in hand at present. and his last advices TO
the State Department were that he had
gathered all his material for pro-
ceeding to take action in the case.
with the exception of securing the
affidavits of the three ladies, who did not
seem to be in any hurry TO get back TO
Paris, where their statements are to be
taken. State Department official said to-
day that there might be some misunder-
standing between Minister Reid and the
ladies as to where their depositions should
be taken. The department had arranged
to effectually dispose of such a difficulty,
if any such has occurred. The State De-
partment will take action on the case when
the afiidavlts of the ladies are received.

The Report that England and Italy Have Com
bined Against France Partially Denied.
LONDON, July 19.-In the House of Com
mons. to-day, Mr.. Henry Labouchere asked
what truth there was in the statement,
semi-oficially published in LOpinione, of
Rome, that there was definite entente
that the English and Italian navies would
act together in the event of war with
France; and also that year ago, when a
French attack on Spezzia was feared, the
British Mediterranean squadron was held
in readiness to assist Italy.
Right Hon. James FERGUSON, in reply to
Mr.. Labouchere's interrogations, stated
that the action of the government In case
of war between France and Italy would he
guided by circumstances. England was
under no engagement lettering her liberty.
The government had never had any grounds
to attribute to France a piratical design to
try to capture Spezzia.
Mr.. Laboucbere asked further questions,
whether there was any truth in the state
ment published in tOpinione, but Sir
James declined to answer.

SULLIVAN IN NEW YORK.

The Champion PugiIist Arrives in an 1ntoxt-
Gated Condition, and Goes Into Hiding
NEW YORK, July 19.-John L. Sullivan
arrived at the Pennsylvania depot at Jer-
sey City by the limited express at o'clock
tonight. The train was an hour late.
There were two friends with him. and they
got into carriage and crossed at the
Cortlandt-street ferry. Sullivan was very
much intoxicated. and unable to talk sensi-
bly, about anything.
The fact of Sullivan's presence IN the city
soon became known and all of the leading
sports started in search of him, but failed
to find him. Mike Sullivan, John LIS
brother, who has been stopping at the Van
derbilt Hotel, intended to leave for Boston
last night, but the news of his brothers in
tended arrival in New York prevented
him, and he spent the night in a fruitless
anxious to see his brother and take him
home at once. He said: MY mother at
present lies between life and death, and
heretofore we have kept this from him, but
now it is absolutely necessary that he
should come home at once"
A large party of friends and admirers OF
Sullivan waited at the Vanderbilt Hotel
untilmdnight hoping that he might arrive,
and planning the reception to be given to
him at the hotel. Phil Lynch. one of his
friends, missed the train that Sullivan ar
rived on. and looked for him for several
hours. but was unable to find him, and at
midnight said that Sullivan and johnson
would probably remain quiet until it was
definitely understood whether Sullivan
would be delivered to the Mississippi au-
thorities on requisition or not.
LATER.-It tran spires that Sullivan was
in the Vanderbilt Hotel while his friends
were securing the town for him. He says
he will 90 to Boston tomorrow. A few in
Inmates were admitted to his room. To a
reporter Sullivan explained that he wanted
him to state that he was sober, and he in
cidentally said he had not been drunk in
Chicago.

the English pugilist, with Mike Donovan,
has gone to Canada. Rather than to run
the risk of arrest in city where he has

would help him at pinch. he decided to
cross over into her Majesty's dominion.
When Mitchell arrived from the West, on

Peter Mitchell. The two were soon

versation that followed MitchelPs fears of
arrest were fully stated. On Tuesday he

with requisition from Governor Lowry,
of Mississippi, increased MitchelPs fears.
and another secret visit was paid to his
counsel. When it was learned beyond a
doubt that Norris was bent upon arresting
the trainer of Kilrain, and that the New
York police were assisting him, Mitchelrs
fears were undisguised. He saw in pros
