Some time ago W.. r. Terrell came from
Virginia to Stilesville. Hendricks county,
where ne settled on a farm. Several days
ago he wrote for his family and also asked
his wife to bring with her a green Virginia
youth TO work upon the farm. The family
and the green youth arrived in this city
yesterday morning. The youth. who had
charge OF the railroad and baggage tickets.
strayed away shortly before Mr.. Terrell,
who was 10 have met his family at the
Union Station, located them. Mrs. Terrell
was distressed over the loss of the tickets.
The family remained here until this morn
ing waiting for the youths appearance.
while the entire police force was given
strict orders to hunt for him.

MORE EXPERTS TESTIFY.
Odd Fellows Parade Breaks in on
Afternoon Session.

Odd FelIOws' Faru0e breahAs III oh
Afternoon Session.
Tn the afternoon Mr.. Eden was called
TO the stand for cross-examination. The
cross-examination was very brief and
ELECTED no new facts. He said his esti-
mate was what the buildings would cost
to reproduce them and not what they
would probably sell for.
w. f. Christian was then called. He is
also a contractor and builder of twenty
five years experience, and has made an
examination of the cabinet company's
buildings with a view to estimating their
value. He said he made his estimates upon
the present valuation, which was lower
than it would have been last year. He
then gave a detailed description of the
building, the same as Mr.. Eden had done.
His estimate of the total value of the
property appraised was $9+434.5o.
on DISCRIMINATION he said the main
building was erected by the Singer Sewing
Machine Company, and had been used for
manufacturing purposes for twenty years.
He estimated the value of the buildings
new and deducted for wear and tear. The
witness and Mr.. Eden made their estimates
separately, but the witness had Eden's
figures before him when he made his esti-
mates. He said he made his estimates in
the same way in which he frequently made
estimates of loss for insurance companies.
John NJ. Todd said he had resided in
this city thirty-three years and had been
a dealer in real estate for tnirty-two years.
He was acquainted with the value OF real
estate in the vicinity of the cabinet COM
pany's plant. He estimated the real
estate. without the buildings, was worth
fully $50, 900.
H.. Nj. Hadley. another real estate dealer
with eight years experience, was called
and estimated the company's real estate
to have been worth $4,000 at any time duf-
ing the past few years. On cross-examin-
alton he said he assisted In the appraise-
ment of the company's real estate for tax
alton in 1884. Mr.. Burke asked if the
property was not at that time appraised
at S12,0O0, and he answered that 1t was
Louis Robinson was then called by the
defense and Deputy Marshal Charles Tay-
lor went TO call the witness. In a few
minutes he returned and said:
There are no witnesses out there. They
have all gone TO view the parade"
He was sent again for witnesses and a
few minutes afterwards Mr.. Robinson
came in and took the stand. 1t was the
purpose of the defense TO show, as upon
the former trial. that the money sent 10
London had been returned, but before the
detailed examination was fairly begun the
court adjourned to permit the examination
70 be made outside Of the court room.
and the testimony of Mr. Robinson will
simply be upon the results.

VALUE OF THE PLANT
EXPERTS FOR DEFENSE IN TRIAL
OF THE COFFINs AND REED.
Attempt to show that the Cabinet
Company's Factory Was Ample
Security for Debts.

1t Is now apparent that the defense In
the bank case will endeavor to show by
their witnesses that the property owned
BY the cabinet company was ample Sc
curity for more than the Indebtedness TO
the bank. The Collins have employed per-
sons with experience to estimate the value
of all the property owned by the cablnet
company. and nave called these persons 10
the stand TO testify to their estimates Of
the values. They have brought furniture
dealers from Chicago, Milwaukee and st.
Louis TO testify as TO the value Of the
stock on hand in July last, as shown by
the inventories taken by employees at that
time. All of these witnesses testified that
the goods manufactured by the cabinet COM
pany were considered the best Of their
kind, and placed the value On the good
will of the business at $50, COO. The valua-
ton of all the property. made by the wit
nesses for the defense, was as follows:
Real estate. $4,000; buildings. $4,000; ma
chinery. 500, 600; good will, $50, 600; accounts,
$1,000; total, 500, 900.
About 3:l5 o'clock Teller Robinson was
called to the stand by the defense and ex-
amined in detail for the purpose Of show
ing that the money sent to London by the
way of Chicago was retured via New York,
and he was on the stand when the Odd
Fellows parade came by the postofhce.
When the parade began passing the usual
fve-minute recess was heightened into a
ffteen-minute recess, and the jury was per-
mitted to leave the room and view the pa
rade. The ffteen-minute recess heightened
into a half-hour one on account of the fail
ure of the jury to return. Upon the re-
converting OF the court, at half past 4
O'Clock, Mr.. Burke objected to the exam
ination of Mr.. Robinson I'm the way it was
being conducted, saying that it was the
evident purpose of the defense TO have the
witness make an abstract from the books
Of the bank which was to be ultimately
submitted to the jury. Mr.. Burke thought
this would be equally as Authentic if made
out OF the court room, and suggested that
1t would be proper for the counsel for the
defense to pay Mr.. Robinson for his work.
Mr.. Winter said the court sat all the time
and he hadn't time 10 make the
ton with the witness, and expressed his
Willingness TO do it last evening and night
II the court would adjourn at that time.
1t was finally agreed that the court should
adjourn till this morning, when the state
ment prepared by Mr.. Robinson will be SUBJ
mitted, and he will testify as to what the
examination shows, instead of making the
examination in detail before the jury.

ANOTHER LARGE CANVAS.
An Addition to the Art Exhibit-SOme
of the Prices.

There was very small patronage at the
art exhibit yesterday. The crowds in town
did not seem TO have any effect on the
attendance. Another large canvas has been
added TO the collection. The Rush on
by w. A. C. Pape. 1t is a war
picture. and the subject will bear much
study. From an artists standpoint there
are many true technicalities which will
serve as a study for the pupil in art. The
portrait of Henry Clay, painted from life
by James H.. Beard, ard owned by Major
the exhibit. 1t is old, and is said to be
a fine likeness. The pictures range I'm price
all the way from 5000 down TO $40. The
former is the Rush on Trenton price,
and the latter comes in the catalogue of
water colors. Many OF the paintings are
valued from $500 to $500.

IN THE COURTS.
His Home Was Broken Up.

Ten thousand dollars is the rating which
Joseph Lewis places upon the affections of
his wife. Annie NJ. Lewis. Yesterday Lewis
filed a suit for this amount against Henry
c. Dawson, alleging that the defendant
alienated the affections of Mrs. Lewis and
invaded the sanctfty Of his home. The
plaintiff AYERS that until she became &C
herself as a true and faithful wife should,
but hat a few years after his marriage the
defendant began to visit his home, both
day and night. and, although discouraged
by the plaintiff, refused to discontinue these
visits. The plaintiff shows the court that by
reason of the wrongful acts on the part of
the defendant he has been dishonored and
disgraced. and prays for a Judgment against
the defendant.

Western Lines strike n snag.

The Western Passenger Association lines
have struck another small snag in the set
Element OF their emigrant troubles. and 1t
may delay the amicabIe results which all
of the lines have been counting upon for the
last week. Passenger Traffic Manager
White. OF the Atchison, has announced that
that portion OF the agreement which allows
20 the Southern Pacific a percentage of the
emigrant business TO Colorado is not as 1t
should be, and he believes that the busi-
ness should be given to the Atchison. This
has made IL necessary for the other lines
to delay their meeting until the return OF
Mr.. White from the Pacific coast. which
will be on Friday Of this week. An ad-
journment OF the association meeting was
taken until that day. 1t is confidently ex-
q manner satisfactory to the Atchison and
the Southern Pacific.
