INDIA'S sILyER CRISIS.
The Government Charged with Re-
s~Ponsibility for the Trouble.

CALCUTTA. Feb. 1.-THE Indian Cur
rency Association has entered a strong pro-
test which has been addressed to the gov
eminent, In regard to the dis~organization
OF trade IN consequence of the changes in
tne silver policy. The protest says that the
present state Of affairs shows that the
closure Of the minis did not do any harm,
though its advantages were temporarily
suspended by the abnormal importations of
silver, OF piece goods and through other
causes: Continuing, the association says
tnat the government abandoned the mini
mum price for council bills at the moment
success was assured, and that this resulted
In a panic, and that it is now Imperative
10 restore confidence. The Indian Currency
Association then recommends the fixing Of a
minimum price for council bills, the prohi-
bition OF the import Of silver for private
account and that the sale Of council bills
be 1ntrlsted to an agent appointed by the
Indian Finance Minister. A few dissenting
opinions from the above are recommended
tions and advocating the reopening of the
minis.

William Pnsh Prefers ~ Divorce to n
$4,000 Damage Suit.

Special to the indianapolis Journal.
MUNCIE, Ind, Feb. 12-The filing of a
suit for divorce by Mrs. William Pash Sat
urday is another link in an interesting
story. Two years ago Pash moved to Nun
Gle from Ohio and had an interesting fam
lily of two children. His actions soon caused
trouble that resulted in divorce proceed
ings instituted by his wife. In a short time
William welded the woman, residing at
Redkey, Jay county, who caused trouble
with his first wife. Soon after his second
marriage wife No. l brought suit asking
$4,000 damage from wife No. 2 on the
charge of alternating the affections of fnr
husband and causing their separation. the
suit has not yet come to trial. The pro-
ceedings filed Saturday is by wife No. 2.
who now asks for legal separation on the
ground that wife No. i has won back her
husbands love. This will likely put a stop
to the 10000 damage suit.

defense, say the trial will proceed without
further delay. Paris is preparing for a Wig

depositors OF the ruined Greentown Bank,
will make an equally aggressive fight for
conviction.
