General Belief that K. B F. Peircs Will Be
President-Frenzel Stays Until January

Gossip and speculation about the street
railway deal center upon two questions of
interest: Who will be the local stock
bolders and who will be president. As to
the first the belief is very general that 7.
p. Haughey and X. b. f. PIERCE will be in
it. Mr.. Peiroe admits that he expects to
invest. Gossip also connects the names of
CORTLAND Van Camp. c. E. Coffin and w.
II. Coleman as prospective stockholders.
The new stockholders will not gam
possession until January and the company
will not be reorganized until then. Nat
urally q new president has not yet been
selected. but it is believed quite likely
that K. b. +. PIERCE will be the man. He
Is now managing trustee of the /. .D.& w.
road, but it Is believed thatthe l., ID. ~ w.
will be sold out before long and Mr.. PIERCE
will DC able to devote his time to an other
enterprise. 1t is also generally bell eyed
that w. T. Steele will go back as super
intendent.
Mr.. FreDzel has been asked by the di-
rectors to continue as president until Jan
uary, and has agreed t6do 30.
Yesterday 1T was fumored that Mr.. Aller-
ton had been prevailed upon 10 make way
for the Shgier syndicate for q sun varI-
ously reported ut from 800. 600 to $50. 900.
but this rumor seems TO be- without founda-
ton. Although preparations will be begun
at once for the reconstruction of the lines
and for extensions, no other changes Will
be made until January. when the new own
ers will assume control.

bis Charges Against United States Marshal
Dunlap Without Foundation.

The attack made upon United States
Marshal Dunlap by w. d.. Bynum, member
of Congress for this district, in a letter to
Attorney general Miller, grew out of the
arrest, nc doubt, of a few paupers for voting
at the poor-farm precinct. Is was charged
that these men did not have q residence
there, and several deputy marshals were
sent out from Indianapolis to prevent the
alleged fraudulent voting. Two arrests
were made, but both the accused were re-
leased by Commissioners Van Buren,. when
be heard the evidence. There were no
other arrests. and every legal voter was al
lowed to vote. Marshal Dunlap said yester-
day that there was not a word of truth
in Bynum's charge that deputies were
appointed for precincts in cities having
less than twenty thousand inhabitants
Referring to the charge that deputies were
induced TO take less than the lawful pay.

Dunlap also entered n denial. Each

ond charge and It's specifications. This Is
really the most important OF the three
charges presented. as 1t involves the real
question of Professor Smiths teaching in
regard to the inspiration of the Bible. The
charge is that in a pamphlet, entitled Bib

Smith taught contrary TO q fundamental
doctrine Of the word of God n
the Confession OF Faith that the
Holy Spirit did not SO control the
Holy Scriptures as to make their u~tterances
absolutely truthful O.. free from error
when interpreted in their natural u IN

eleven specifications. made mp of assertions
of what was taught by Professor Smith in
his pamphlet concerning the author of
Chronicles. of the Psalms aud of o portion
of Issiah
While the proper argument before the
court to-day was upon Prof. Smiths objec-
ton to the sufficiency of this charge and its
specifications as TO form and legal effect.
the mem bers of the court. almost without
exception, addressed themselves to the dis
ouss;on of the question whether Prof.
Smiths teaching was or was not contrary
to the fundamental doctrine Of the church.
Among those who spoke in favor of stay ing
the charge were Dr.. Bryan. Dk. Richie,
who favored some slight amendment, Dr.
James, DR.. Reynolds, Dr. Robertson and
DR.. Roberts. DR.. Maxwell and Elder Full

finally taken on sustaining the spfficlency
