NATURAL GAS IN OHIO,
Tifiin Manufacturers Notified that They Must
Pay Six Cents Per Thousand Feet

Special TO the Indianapolis Journal.
CLEVELAND. Oct. 23.-There is considera-
BILE trouble in several of the natural-gas
towns of Ohio over the fuel question. No.
tice was served yesterday on factories of
Lima by the natural-gas company that no
gas would be furnished after Nov. 1. The
manufacturers at Tiffin were notified that
when the present contracts expired they
would have to put in meters and pay for
gas ut the rate of 6 cents per thousand. The
potteries at East Liverpool can no longer
depend on gas, and they are resuming the
use of coal. Only private consumers are
being furnished with gas in Day ton, and
unless the supply Is increased by the drill
ing of new wells the price will be increased
25 per cent. Tho supply at the wells at
the points named is rapidly decreasing
Costly litigation is likely to ensue at Day
ton and Iiffin over franchises and grants.

Speclal 10 the Indianapolis journal
WASHINGTON. Oct. 23.-Postmaster-gen
eral Wanamaker has made considerable
progress in the preparation OF his annual
report, and will probably have it ready for
the printer in about two weeks. The Post
master general will make another strong
plea for the establishment of q postal tele-
graph sy stem. and also rsiterates his argu-
ment in favor of the postal savings banks.
The United States and Germany are the
only great powers which are without the
postal savings system; while in every coun-
try where the experiment. has been tried it
is said TO have resulted in great good TO the
people. Mr. Wanamaker's idea is to have
these banks located in States where there
are no laws regulating savings banks and
in any other States where a considerable
number of residents unite in q petition. No
banks would. however, be established In
pOstOffices within ten miles of each other.

ParDellItes, only McCarthyite partisans
decry the choice of the party. Impair
tial observers of John Redmond's career
concur in testfying To his ability and mod
esty of character. In these respects he
ought not to be confoundeG with his show
ier brother William. who is always ready
to push TO the front. Mr.. Parncll selected
John Redmond as one having qualities
kindred 10 his own. He is stolid ana
thoughtful, with u gravity and reticence of
manner fitting him for the confidence of
the party. lie is n good platform speaker
and an able parliamentary debater. 1t is
not probable, however that lie will devel-
op o capacity equal 10 sustaining the life OF
his faction against such tremendous odds.
The present game OF the McCarthyites Is
an attempt TO blight the budding influence
of John Redmond by branding him as
traitor to NJ. Parnell. Mr.. Dillon. in his
speech at Wexford aimed TO unmask Red
mond. He said it was notorious that Red
mond was about to desert Parnell just be-
fore the latter was stricken down, and had
refused TO accompany his leader 70 speak
at Listowel and Greagh. 1t filled him
(Dill0n) with disgust to see such man de-
serting the cause because he saw 1T going
down hill. The men now talking of deSer-
tion from Parnell were hiding in holes and
corners in Dublin when Parnell went 10
Greagh. where he contracted his fatal IL
ness. There was not one of them who
would 90 and stand by bis side. Thus
spoke Mr. Dillon. Black assertions of this
kind. however. fail to touch the reliance OF
the party in MIR. Redmond, who knew that
Mr. Parnell trusted him TO the last.
The selection of Mr. Flavin 10 oppose
John Redmond in Cork increases the hopes
of the Pafnellites. Mr.. Flavin. who is
man of good repute and q town councillor,
relics mainly on the support of the priests.
but a number of the municipal officials and
the mass of the citizens are against him.
The supporters Of Mr.. Redmond are making
vigorous house-to-house canvass, and
they declare themselves confident of VIC
tory. They have no lack of funds part of
the money coming from America. The final
hope of the restoration of party unity rests
with Michael Davitt If he refrains from
throwing his whole influence Oh the side of
the McCarthyites and uses his personal
power in q quiet policy of coneillation. he
will in time recOnstitute the Irish party.

DEFENDER OF RUNI..

Dr. J. Mortimer Granville of London has succeeded in making quite stir. He has openly and boldly declared that "tee- talism" is a worse evil than the occasional use of intoxlcants. He knows that in pro- fessing this opinion he is placing himself in antagonism to the majority of medical writers on this topic, but is so thoroughly convinced of the accuracy of his view, after forty years study and observation of the subject in it's professional and social aspects, that he should feel lacking in moral courage if he hesitated to express himself decidedly. He sincerely believes that incalculable harm has been done to the human organism, with it's functions, by the spread of teetotal views and prac- tices. There is less stamina in the life of the average Englishman now than there was forty years ago. He may live little longer, but he is not 80 well able to resist the invading germs of disease or to recover from the facilitating eff fects of such an invasion as he was when good wine and sound ale 1OI hlSo 4ItSSlul pal IS O1 HIS udlly CloG 11c has lost some, if not much, of the practi- cal advantage due to the diminution of preventable maladies by improved sanita- tion, because he has allowed his organic life to fall to grade lower in vital energy than that which previously protected him against perils greater than those that now beset him. He says further that men af- firm that the increase of insanity is due to | drink, forgetful that it is since the habit of drinking has been reduced-as teeto- talers allege-that insanity has increased, l if, indeed. it has really increased. And he doubts whether, of the great bulk of the general practitioners who have opportuni- ties of collecting information on this sub 1 ject. any large number could compile twenty cases, falling under their individual observation, of persons who habitually drank freely and became insane. Mean while calm and careful survey of the statistical and clinical facts will show that not few terrible diseases, such as consumption, cancer, specific maladies oi low type-for example, diphtheria, the worst forms of gout, nerve troubles and g host of minor ailments having for theil proximate, if not ultimate, causes those depressed and asthenic conditions of vital force in the organism which render it, as whole, weak in the presence of it's enemies-have developed and extended their ravages since the prac
 tice of substituting "table waters" ant
 watery wines for 'sound-malt and hop ant
 grape-fermented beverages.
 Dr. Granville is evidentlya man of cour
 age, but we do not believe he will mak
 much headway. The teetotlers can tall
 more and cite more facts and figures tha,
 he can, and they will.

internal distractions and law suits it has on hand
 What has given some of the Methodist brethren an awful twinge of disappoint- ment in connection with this great worlds conference of representative Methodisfs is, that 1t appears probable SO fsr that no woman will be allowed to take part in 1t. This is not certain absolutely, for the del egstions, owing to possible vacancies at the last moment, will not be finally fixed until the body shah have been organized. It is probable, however, and, 10 some this discrimination against the fair sisierhood just when so fierce fight is being made for their admission to the general confer ence of the Methodist Episcopal church is regarded as at once an unfair allot- ment and portentious omen To think, too, that the commission of the church just named should have declined 10 elect to membership in this body such distin- guished sister as Miss Frances E. Willard, even after she had been nominated for this honor by so distinguished An assembly as the Rock River annual conference, which embraces the city of our prospective Worlds FAiri Such, however, is the fact, and there is So much feeling about it in some quarters that we may expect "wo- man, lovely woman" to be more really in the conference, by this fact of her rigid exclusion, than though she had been ad- mitted quietly to take her seat on an equal footing with the lords of creation.
