WANTED TO RESCUE HIM.
Friends of an Arrested Thief Get Them
selves Into Trouble.

About 4 O'clock yesterday afternoon, as
James Foley sauntered past the Famous
cl0ak-houso at the corner of Illinois n
Market streets, he saw q cloak displayed
in front of the store which struck him as
being particularly desirable. He aDpro-
priated it to his own use and calmly con-
tinued his ssuntering. In q few minutes
the loss of the cloak was discovered, and
Dominick Hall and James Brosnan, en-
ployed at the store, started in pursuit OF
the thief who was overtaken at the corner
of Mississippi and Ohio streets.
After regaiuipg the garment. Foley was
arrested by the two men, and with him
they started for the store. They stopped
with their prisoner at the Sentinel ofice to
telephone for the patrol-wagon, and while
waiting for it's arrival quite a crowd as
sembled. In the crowd were AL Ross and
William Nevins, who were urging the
crowd TO make o rush upon Hall and Bros
nan and take the prisoner from them.
About this time patrolmen Hagerman and
Lyons appeared upon the scene. and the
men ceased their efforts OF behalf of the
prisoner. superintendent Colbert. learn
ing of the facts, ordered the men arrested.
At the police station some racy pictures
were found upon them. and they were
slated for having obscene literature jim
their possession. Foley was slated Nr
petit larceny.

MONUMENTS GROWING FIGURE.
Anxious TO Exhibit Ii at the Worlds Fair
May Use the Plaster Model.

A letter was received yesterday by Presi-
dent Langsdale. from the Chicago Bronze
Company. in which permission was asked
to make the bronze figure of Indiana for
the monument q part of the CON-
pany's exhibit at the worlds fair. 1t
was suggested that the statue
would be a magnificent advertisement
of the State, and that the delay in erect
ing it upon the monument would be more
than compensated for. The company also
offered to erect the plaster model. colored
with patina. so as to resemble bronze. upon
q pedestal forty or fifty feet high in front
of the Indiana building, at Its own ex pense,
in return for the favor asked.
The idea," said President Langs-
dale. cannot be entertained for
q moment. Indiana and Indianapolis
want that statue in its place when
the Grand Army encampment meets here.
AND then we want the monument complet-
ed so as to make Indianapolis q point of at
traction for the great masses of visitors to
the lair. The fame Of this monu-
ment has spread through European
art circles, and l anticipate thousands of
forelpners will come to Indianapolis to see
IL. So we must have 1t completed. i have
been thinking, however, OF making q sug.
ges!ion TO the bronze company that it
cACCt tuo pl6etcI Cd6t, do ~ pkopoSoo, AA
front of the Indiana building. Colored to
appear as bronze, 1t would make
q striking attraction TO the Indiana
building, and would distinguish it from all
the other State buildings in an lncompara-
BILE way. The building, which is already
the superior of any of the State buildings.
would be still more a~ggrandized. And at
the same time the sight of tho cast would
make keener the desire of all art lovers to
see the original. and that would bring them
TO Indianapolis. The bronze company would
get about AS much benefit from the adver-
tisement as If it had the browning piece
itself on exhibition"
