Secretary Johnson. of the Board of State
Charities. received notice yesterday that
the ext meeting of the National Confer
ence of Charities and Corrections will be
held at Baltimore. Nd. on the 14th of next

the reason that "A good many persons con-
nected with the public institutions of this
State are preparing reports TO be submitted
tothat body. fhe attendance from Indiana
on the sessions ofithe body will probably be
larger than ever before. and an active
effort will be made to hav the conference

Kitz,s Demurrer sustained.

Directly after the Pollard exposure, four
years ago. involving the transactions of
certain trustees in issuing warrants in
large amounts for school supplies that were
never furnished, the Cincinnati National
Bank brought suit here, in the United
States District Court. The defendants were
Ernest Kitz, Frank and Robert b. Pollard.
Kitz ut the time was trustee of Center
township. and in the complaint it was al
legged that he and the POllards had con-
spired To issue warrants to the amount of
$4,000. OF these warrants the plaintiff In
the course of business with one Cook, a
hanker at North Vernon. got one tor 81 600.
Ii was dated June IL, 1885. and was payable
on the 18th of January, 1887. Cook after
ward failed and the plaintiff sought to re-
cover from the defendants. Kitz, in De-
cember. 1885, filed a demurrer, stating that
action. Judge Woods. a day or two ago,
sustained the demurrer.

Florida Passenger Rates.

The passenger men who were asked to
meet yesterday to fix a basis for Florida
rates assembled at the Bates House, and
also those who are TO prepare the basing-
sheet of rates in Central Traffic territory.
Thirty roads were represented. Florida
rates were diseased six hours without any
agreement being reached, and the whole
matter was laid over until to-day. There
were a number of Central Traffic Associa-
ton men who had to leave for home last
night. and they wished to dispose of the
Central Traffic Association business. There
were SOM points in the Florida rates
which made 1T necessary to secure certain
information from the southern roads before
the rates could be readjusted satisfactorily.
Some progress was made in fixing the ba-
sis of rates for the Central Traffic Assocla-
ton. and the unfinished business was left
over until to-day.

Trial of Thomas f. Quill.

Inc entire morning yesterday IN the
Criminal Court was spent in trying to fill
the jury for the trial of Township Assessor
Quill, charged with putting names on his
payroll of men who did no work in his
office. 1t was noon before the attorneys
for both sides had agreed upon the twelfth
man. and it was decided to defer
the introduction of evidence until
afternoon. The following is the jury:
Charles Rosemeyer. John s. Flemming,
William Quinn. William :. Losey. Harry
Barbee, Charles Dawson, William A. Orp-
wood, William Sc~hOppenhOrst, william
Clark. Christopher A. Stein, /. w. McGin-
mis-. John Green.
The first witness put upon the stand by
the State was Joseph Fawcett. whose
name. it is alleged, was used by Quill as a
dummy He testified that from Septem-
Der, 1857, until the present time he has been
employed In q dry goods store. and that he
was not working for Quill in April last.
The testimony of Clerk Joseph Tanning,
of the Board of County Commissioners the
next witness, covered the Identification
originally drawn. The State, during his
warrant. for S2,446, as evidence, but Mr..
Quilts attorneys objected because 1T was
made out in the name of Thomas i. Quill,
assessor, while the Indictment alludes only
to Thomas 4. Quill. The court overruled
the objection, and the warrant was read. as
was the payroll for April last, to which
similar objections were made. The trial
will probably continue the balance of the
week.

QUESTIONS FOR THE JUDGES
Indiana School Book Publishing Com
pany Not Satisfied with a Decision.
II Appeals from that of Judge Frazer and Asks
the Supreme Court for Early Action
Trial of Township Assessor Quill.

Tn schooI-book case in Kosciusko coun-
ty, which Judge Frazer recently decided,
has been taken to the Supreme Court on the
appeal of the Indiana SchOol-b0ok Publish
ing Company. The company joined Philip
w. Smoke rs relator against Elijah A. Blue.
trustee of Seward township. in the county
named, to compel him to order books of the
Indiana Educational Series for the common
schools of that township. Judge Frazer
refused the mandamus prayed for. and upon
this the appellant, the Indiana School-book
Publishing Company. seeks the decision of
the Supreme Court. A petition has been
signed by its attorneys. A. g. Wood. Dun
can IL Smith and Morris IL Bassett. and
those of the appellee. Haywood & Royse,
asking for an early hearing. In the petition
the reasons for such action are set out as
follows:
That the relator company has expended large
sums OF money in procuring the publication or
said books and now has on hand a sufficient num-
Der OF books to supply all the schools OF the
state with said books. according TO the terms OF
said contract and said law. That some of the
trustees OF school corporations in the State deny
the validity OF so much OF said law as imposes or
seeks 20 impose duties upon them in relation to
said books and contract, and claim for them
or not csrtity 70 tbe cnnnry Snnep,ntepdenf Of
their respective counties the number Of books re-
quired for the use of the children of their re-
spective school corporations. That on account
OF the diversity of opinion among school trustees
and the general contrariety of views and actions
on their part, induced by such diverse views and
contention, there is a want of uniformifyin text
books used IN the common schools Of the State.
That mncn confusion in the common schools has
resulted; that the contention has been greatly IN
jurious TO the relatOr company; that a speedy
decision and settlement of the question will
greatly promote the interests of the pubic As
well as that of the parties TO this suit. For these
reasons, the parties respectfully ask the court, TX
II may be consistently done. that this cause be
advanced so that at an early day il may he set
forward for argument and speedily determined.
The argument will be heard on the 2sth
of next month.

Two Cents q Mile for Passengers.
THE whole drift of these disturbances in
passenger rates." said a general passenger
agent yesterday, 'isitoward making a uni
form rate of 2 cents a mile" This led a re-
porter of the Journa to question several
prominent passenger men as to the advisa-
bility of making 2 cents a mile the uniform
rate on all classes of travel, and of seven
spoken to on the matter, five expressed the
opinion that this is where the rate agita-
ton will end; the other two said that the
roads of Indiana and Illinois run through
too sparsely settled country to admit of
carrying local business at 2 cents a mile.
The general tenor of the remarks of the
other five was that If mileage tickets,
clergymen's tickets, theatrical tickets and
excursion tickets to the thousand and one
abolished and every body charged 2 cents n
would be as great as now, If not larger.
one ofthe passenger agents. that there are
not carried over our road delegates to some
convention at a rate and one-third. and an
other third of the travel is on mileage
books. so that, take it all in all, a large per
cent. of the travel now rides at 2 cents a
mile OF less, and it would be as well to
make that the uniform rate over all roads
and on all trains. and this wOuld do away
with numerous complications which now
arise through the use of mileage tickets and
excursion rates"

AFFAIRS OF THE
Decision in . Wheat- Storage Case.

DeclklOn IN y Oneht-StorbSo Sascs
WASHINGTON, Dec. 1.-THE decision OF
the Interstate-commerce Commission, In
the case of Frederick A. White against
the Michigan Central Railroad Com
pany and Lake Shore g. Michigan
Southern Railroad Company. was an
nounced yesterday. The opinion was written
by Commissioners Veasey. Elevators for
the receipt and storage of wheat are locat-
ed on the line of the Michigan Central at
Buchanan and Dayton, Mich, and on the
line of the Lake Shore at P~lainwell, Mich,
and New Carlisle. Ind. For the past five
years complainant has delivered different
loads of wheat to these elevators. The
complaint charges that the custom of the
companies to deduct from five to ten pounds
of wheat per load from the true weight is
illegal. The companies do not deal
with farmers in storing the wheat.
The buyer or shipper gives the farmer q
ticket OF order to the railroad company to
receive the wheat; on delivery the railroad
company gives the farmer a receipt for the
weight, and the farmer then takes his
ticket and receipt to the buyer and gets
his pay. The companies insist on their
right to make the deductions in order to
cover shrinkage in weight while the wheat
is stored in the elevator and waste In
"A
charge that the wheat was delivered for
Interstate transportation.
Upon the hearing the respondents moved
to m the complaint for insufficiency,
and the case was submitted on these mo-
tl0ns. but the complainant had. previous to
the hearing. filed some dispositions, and
this evidence was examined by the COM
mission with a view of seeing what light it
shed upon the general claim of unla wful
practice and upon the duty of the commits
sion to proceed against the companies on
it's own motion. The commission holds
that the complaint was insufficient in sub
stance to show violation of the act to regu-
late commerce., and that the respondents
are entitled to have it dismissed, but that
the dismissal should be without prejudice
| to the institution OF another proceeding.
The averment in the complaint that the
railroad companies were interstate COM
mon carriers does not warrant. the infer
ence that wheat delivered at their ele-
vators was for interstate commerce.
