The Indianapolis Strike.

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, March 1.-The sit
uation in the street car strike is terribly
critical. For the past twenty-rour hours
counsellors and advisors have persist
emily sought President Frenzel and the
Street Car Brotherhood leaders, and
tried to gain from each some little con-
cession that might avert further trouble.
At strikers meetinst Mayor Sullivan
explained that if the strikers defeated
the city they would then have the
county to fight, and ultimately the
state, and could not hope to win.
Many prominent citizens urged the
men to cease from violence and ex-
haust every moral means. On the
other hand, President Frenzel has been
importuned to make slight concession,
and how well these go-betweens are
succeeding is evidenced by the fact that
during the morning not an attempt has
been made to move car. President
Frenzel cannot be found, but it is un-
derstood that he and several well known
public men, with representatives of the
strikers are now trying to patch up a
settlement.
Despite the rain, which is falling
necessarily, the streets are filed
with thousands of men, many of
whom have ceased work to witness any
outbreak that may occur. Public senti-
ment is against violence and the pulpit
unanimously denounced it. Bishop
Chattard, one of the board of arbitra-
tion, whose decision President Frenzel
is charged with violating, and which
inspired the strike, has issued mani
festo calling upon all Catholics to re-
frain from participating in any violence.
At $3.50 a. M. the company announced
that it would make no attempt to run
cars until noon, and probably not then.
It is reported that nearly all the new
men employed by the company have
been won over by the strikers and re-
fuse to take out cars.

BOLD Attempt at Bank Robbbng
in I.anhOn-Tha r.-%-rnl

ASothor Bold Attempt at Bank Robbing
in London-The Thief Captured.
LONDON. March 2.-There was an
other of q series of bank robberies Mon
day in this city, and the man, believed
to be one of the most expert robbers
and sneak thieves ever produced by the
United States, is in Jail. The police for
a year past-ever since the Provincial
bank robbery on Feb. IL, 1891, and sew
eral other similar robberies which have
followed-have been hunting for the
stylish couple of Americans who levied
tribute upon the banks in the boldest
manner possible. Monday morning a
customer was handing box of securi-
ties across the counter of the London
and Westminster bank, when dud-
ishly dressed stranger, believed to be
the long wanted American bank thief,
snatched at the box, tore it from the
customers hands and made rush for
the door. There, however, he was
caught by the bank porter and desper-
ate struggle between the two men fol-
lowed. The porter, however, managed
tosretain hold of the thief until the
police arrived upon the spot, when,
after another severe fight, r the bold
thief was taken to the police station.

AN ALLEGED DEAL,

The Canadian Catholic Vote to Be Given
tn Conservative on Certain Conditions.
WINNIPEG, March 2.-The organ of
the Manitoba government here pub
fishes startling statement to the effect
that bargain has been made between
the Roman Catholic church and the
Conservative government at Ottawa,
by which the church has pledged itself
to give to the Conservatives the entire
Catholic vote. One condition of the ar
rangement is that Abbott, the present
dominion premier, is to retire in the
near future and be succeeded by Sir
John Thompson, who is Roman Cath
olic. An other condition is that, in the
event Of the privy council of England
declaring the act recently passed by the
Manitoba government abolishing Catho-
lie schools to be valid and constitu-
tional, the dominion government will
promptly pass remedial legislation, an
lnulling the act and giving Catholics the
right to maintain their separate schools
at the public expense.

WASHINGTON, March 2.-Au editorial
in the Des Moines Register, evidently
written by the Hon. J. s. Clarkson, de-
claring that Iowa will instruct her dele
CATION to vote for Blame at Minneapo-

it is now probable that Maine will in
struct her delegation for Blaine. Con-
gresham Dolliver of Iowa says: THAT
editorial means solid Blaine delegation
from Iowa. Inasmuch as the Pennsyl-
vania delegation is already nearly all in.
structed for Blaine, it is believed by
many leading republican congressman
that not even Blaine himself can stop
the boom which has started again.

Malt Extract intoxicating.

FARGO, N. D., March Malt extract
is Intoxicating liquor, and dealers who
sell it violate the prohibition law. This
is the effect of verdict rendered last
evening in the case of the State vs..
Owen Hargraves, charged with main.
tanning a nuisance at Wheatland, and
tried before Judge Mcconnell. The de-
fense admitted the sale of malt extrac
manufactured in St. Paul. Prof. Ladd

that an analysis showed that malt ex-
tract contained 5.86 per cent of alcohol,
or as much as ordinary lager beer. The
charge Of the judge was strongly iu favor
of the prisoner, but the jury found him
guilty. An appeal will probably be
taken.

Popular Sentiment in Iowa Favors .
Change in the Prohibition Inv.
DEs MONIES, Ia., March 2.-Interest
in the situation in the legislature on the
prohibition question is becoming intense
in Iowa. The belief that the law will
be repealed is growing every day. No
one can give reason for this change of
sentiment as to what is believed the
legislature will do, but that it has
reached all sections of the state and all
classes of people there is no question. It
is thought that the principal fight on
the question will be made In the house.

Effect of Twine COmbinatiOns

MINNEAPOLIS, March l. -Advices have

season of from 3 to 4 cents a pound.
The journal prints extracts from a
report of the cordage trust showing a
profit of 81, 100000 the past year. The
field has become so profitable that it is
likely an Irish company from Belfast
will establish a large branch factory in
this city, The trust has yet no effective
competitor, and, as it controls all the
American patents for twine machinery,
it holds the key to the situation.
