Sarah Chopper was recomrnitted TO the
Central Hospital for the Insane yesterday.
Last March she caused much trouble by
calling on ex-Sheriff John T. Pressly, at his
residence on North Pennsylvania street, and
insisting on him marrying her. She was
adjudged insane and sent to the hospital
for the insane. Mr.. Pressly dying shortly
after this, Mrs. Chopper was released, and
has since acted in a rational manner until
yesterday, when she went to the residence
of Daniel A. Chenoweth, a son-in-law of
Mr.. Pressly. Mrs. Chopper said that a
spirit marriage would be held. She then
went to the residence of John F. Carson,
another son-in-law of Mr.. Pressly, and
made like Police officers took

N FIRMS MONOPOLY
ANOTHER CHAPTER IN THE COMMITS
sIONERS' COURT ROTTENNEss.
Wrought Iron Bridge Given
Every Contract Since Hunter
Went on the Board.

The County Commissioners are still hold
ing up the award of the contract for the
bridges for which they advertised for bids.
The loophole left by them, through which
they might award the contract to a partic-
ular favorite, has grown very small since
it was exposed, and it Is probable that
the commissioners are seeking some way
TO enlarge the aperture. A communication
has been received at the Journal office
from a taxpayer offering to lay a wager
that the contract would be awarded to
the Canton Bridge Company. The COM
munication is as follows:
"A taxpayer offers to wager an old hat
that the Wrought Iron Bridge Company
street river bridge, as no other company
has had a bridge contract since Mr..
Hunter has been on the board. He might
be induced to raise the bet to 800"
The ledger in the County Commissioners
office shows that the total expenditures in
the bridge fund for the year ending May
81, 1894. were SIS, log. Al. The bulk of this
was spent for the bridge over White river
at Kentucky avenue. Some of the ex-
penditures were for lumber to be used in
bridge repairs. For this lumber the County
Commissioners paid a higher price than was
paid by the city for the same kind of lum-
Der to be used in the city bridge work. H.
j. Landers furnished most of this lumber,
and Landers * Donnelly and A. w. Nc
CURE furnished a part Of it. The items
appearing on the ledger for the year are
as follows:
June 5, Landers & Donnelly, lumber.
S50.27; Sept. 2. Paul Julian, plans for re-
pairing Morris-Street bridge, SO; Sept. 20,
Hunt & Adams, bridge in Pike township,
S212.50; Oct. 80; Albert w. Mcclure, lumber

$3.50; Nov. 9, Wrought Iron Bridge Com
pany, $4,000; Nov. IA, Capitol Paving and

Bridge Company, s., 1O.
1t will be seen that the Wrought Iron
Bridge Company has been getting all the
contracts for bridges. As stated several
times before. it is possible, under the rot
ten specifications, for the commissioners TO
award the contract without considering the
bids.

Thinks Air Ships Probable.

In a paper before the Science Club. last
night, V. II. Lockwood treated Of the stor-
age of power. He spoke of the various
practical needs of the artificial storage of
power to propel vehicles, boats and air
ships. He believes aerial navigation not
only possible, but probable. after the ex-
periments OF Prof. Langley. of the Smith
senian Institute. He spoke of the neces-
sity for storing the surplus energy of irreg-
ular prime movers. In this way a steam
plant built only for an average power will
store the surplus when less than the aver
age is required, and the surplus thus stored
will be used when more than the average
is required. On the question Of aerial navi-
CATION he said the experiments of Prof.
Langley had shown that the greater the
required to propel II. The various means

WOULD NOT STAMPEDE.
POpuIists Fail Again to Win the
ShOyclerx.

Another attempt TO stampede the colored
member OF the Transfers and Shovelers'
Union into the Populist party failed sig
nally last night. The union announced
some time ago that it had entered politics,
and that political issues would be discussed
In its hall. This is a deviation from a
long established custom of eschewing poll
tics in union halls that has been made by
several unions recently. following the lead
OF the Central Labor Union in this respect.
~ few men in the Transfers union have
undertaken TO vote IL solidly for the Popu-
list ticket this fall. The insurmountable OBJ
stacle TO this which they are trying TO
overcome is the large number of colored
men In the union who stubbornly decline to
be hoodwinked. 1t was announced that
John McGregor. candidate on the Repub-
lican ticket for the Legislature. and W. p.
Smith, OF ~Irvington. would address an open
meeting In the union nall after the regular
meeting OF the union. AS usual there were

too palpable a one. however. TO deceive
the colored men present. One or two mem
bers OF the union were called on Tor snort
talks and all of them spoke on the same
line.
1t was apparent that the Populists were
making a strong bid for the colored vote.
Every speaker told them that they Were
the victims of a merciless and unjust preJu-
dice az the hands of both the old parties
anG could never hope to free themselves
from the odium of the prejudice, so deep
and firmly rooted had it become. After this
the colcred men were told that the Popu-
lists Were waiting to receive them with
open arms, and take them to their bed
that lived. They were cajoled and caressed,
hguratively speaking, by every speaker.
The thing was 50 greatly overdone as TO
show the real animus and the true feeling
towards the men whom il was sought 10
barney. One or two of the younger col
ored meI were carried away by the s1Tnu-
lation of fellowship. but the older heads
speak out their minds. One old colored
man became very indignant at the sugges-
ton that the colored man owed no obliga-
ton to the Republican party. He said he
had been a slave, and his knowledge was
that which he got from experience. He said
he was not the man to be so ungrateful
as to turn his back upon the friend who
helped him when he could not help himself,
and he for one did not propose to sit by
and hear Islander against his friend,
whether that friend was an individual or a
party. With this he took his hat and strobe
from the hall. He was followed by a
dozen or more of the older colored men
present.
After the meeting had gotten under a
