To the Editor of the Indianapolis Journal:
The law requires that the various city
boards should be divided politically.
There is not a well-informed man in this
city who does not know that Robert Cat
terson. who was put on the Board of Pub
lie Safety as a Republican, is not q Repub-
liean. He boasts that he voted for Sulli-
van two years ago. as we'll as at the late
election. 1t is no secret that he never en-
joyed the confidence of the Republicans,
and that party should enter n formal pro-
test against his In that place.
No man with O particle of eelf-respect
would impose himself npon O party which
repudiates him unanimously, as the Repub-
lican party does Catterson.

Less Traffic Than Expected.

Chicago railroad men are not so joyful
over the outlook rs they were q month ago.
They had expected that by this time they
would be put to their utmost exertions TO
provide cars enough 10 move the east
bound freight. but instead Of that they find
that there has been no strain what
ever on the capacity of their roads. Not
only Is business dull. but the volume IL
actually decreasing from week to week.
and, what ~ more surprising, It continues
to fall far short of the tonnage recorded for
corresponding periods Ia 1890. which was
regarded as an of year. This falling of
petition. for lake shipments during the past
tive weeks have decreased ever more than
the shipments by rail.
The east-bound movement ofdead freight
from Chicago by the railroads last week,
including both through and local consign-
ments, amounted to 81. 5l5 tons. against
6O,105 for tho preceding week, n decrease
OF 1859 tons, and against g. 1888 for the same
period last year. a decrease of 1O,S4T tons.
At the same time lake shipments fell away
from l03. l25 tons for the preceding week TO
e2.670 tons last week.
The shipments ot iiour, grain and provis-
ions from Chicago TO the sea board by the
reads in the Central Traffic Association
Aggregated $3.50 tons, against 2j,4i9 for tho
preceding week, n decsease of lisa tons.
and against 34.Ol6 for the corresponding
Week OF 1880, a decrease of 0.3S1 tons. The

THE THIRD APPLICATION.
California Early Speaks for a Site at the
Fair.

California Early Speaks for a Site at the
CHICAGO. April 7.-World's Fair Commits
missioner De Young, of California. to-day
filed with the local building and grounds
committee with Director-General Davis,
and with the bonrd of control, the follow
ing communication signed by Commits
sioner Forsythe and himself: "We desire
to put in a formal application for the nee
essary grounds and space to erect a build
ing for the state of California. We have
been informed that two states have
put in applications-Illinois and
Iowa. In accordance with projected rules,
We desire to have the next right of selection
for the location of said building. Cali
fornla has appropriated S30o,00 c, and ex-
poets to spend on a building $50, O00.''
When asked this evening why he had
filed the letter in three places, Commis
sioner DE Young said that at a meeting of
the subcommittee of the joint committee,
OF which he is Il member,
he, after consulting, outlined a
set of rules for exhibitors and
application which met the approval of the
subcommittee. Thinking the rules would
probably be adopted, he determined to get
California's application on file in due form.
so her state commissioners will be in posi-
ton to have almost the first selection of
location. The amount to be spent on the
building ls only a rough estimate, made To
comply with outlined rules. The state
commissioners, of course, will settle the
matter of cost and plans.

light, but much against the grain, as he
had always held the salvation of the soul

the husband could keep them and maybe
that would be lone vet.
The Helena independent. [volume] (Helena, Mont.) 1875-1943, 1891-04-08

Leech thinks that from $4,000, 900 to So
50U0.000 of the available assets in the tfea8-
ury can be recoined with the appropriation.
Gold coins are considered satisfactory and
signs, after being selected, will not be

What an Enigma is Woman's Heart.

From the Pttsburg Dispatch.
When the Atlantic express arrived yesterday
morning among the few passengers who
alightcd here was couple who seemed to be
in a great hurry to get off. The pair alighted
from different sections Of the train and were
apparently strangers. for each went out by
different ways. One was young woman, styl-
ishly dressed, whose bearing indicated refine
ment- She was about twenty-three wears of
age, tall and good looking, Az far az could be
discerned through the heavy veil which par
TALLY concealed her features. On alightlng
from the train she walked into the hall of the
depot and passed swiftly through to the porch
beyond.
The other was q man, heavy set and with
coarse features, intensified by the shining black
hat which he carried jauntily on one side of his
head. A diamond pin blazed from crimson
necktio only partly visible from out his closely
fitting black coat, which exposed to view the
ends of pair Of checked trousers and the No.
II shoes Of as shady looking q colored man as
ever came in ON \ train. Grasping . couple Of
gtipsacks In each hand he passed out through
the exit aud reached the porch.
In another moment the soft, yielding form Of
the young girl was clasped in that of the ebony
hued character; his heavy lips were brought
into contact with her rosy cheek, few re-
mnrks quickly exchanged and the ill-assorted
pair walked quickly away and disappeared from
view. All the information that could be OBJ
tanned about either was that they came from
Fort Wayne, Ind.
