INDIANAPOLIS, IND, Aug. 14.--The
managers of the Acton oamp-meetine
find that after all they must make con-
cessions to Fraucis Murphy, who aban-
doned his temperance work OF the camp
grounds because the Prohibitionists were
unfriendly to him and because the mana
gers would not permit crowds to be
brought to the camp on Sunday excur-
sion trains. After Mr.. Murphy's trouble
with the trustees became known there
was such general condemnation Of their
actions that they made CANVASS Of the
camp to ascertain the prevailing septi-
msnt. Il has been found thst the ma
jority is largely with Murphy and In con-
sequence the trustees haya decided to
make CONCESSIONS. They will permit one
excursion train to be run to the grounds
each Sunday and he can conduct Ids
work as he pleases.
