AS A CLOTHING CENTER.
indianapolis Is Beginning to Attract
Attention I'm This RESPECT.

In a recent issue of r.. G.. Dun & Co.'s
financial paper Indianapolis is favorably
spoken of as a growing center for manufac-
turing clothing. BUT few persons are
aware of the magnitude Of this business in
this city, as it has practically sprung up
In the last few years. There are now four
large concerns-the c. Il. Cones Manufac-
turing Company, r. G. Harsein, Phillips &
Patterson and L. Meier & Co. When run
ming at their full output they give employ
ment to LOO persons, a large per cent. of
whom are women At the four establish
ments, by actual count, 10 sewing machines
are used, run by steam or gas power en-
gines, the machines being placed in a row
on a line of shafting extending across the
large rooms. The average output of these
four establishments, when running full
hand and full time. is $50 to GOO dozen gar
ments a, day, and the material used In
such garment varies from thirty-one to
thirty-sfx yards in each dozen garments.
Ihese works manufacture ~unlaundered and
laundered shirts in colors, duck coats.
pants, o~Vera1lS, plaid jackets, etc.
Within the last two years two of the es-
adjustments have been improving the char
coats of cashmere, which are really a neat
and handsome garment. The price Of the
goods vary with the quality, some lines
selling as low as $12 a dozen, others as high
as $50 a dozen, and in looking over the
shipping books it is shown that there is
not a State in the Union that some one of
the establishments does not ship goods to.
A year ago, when the business was at it's
height, the output of the several establish
.nIfntS exceeded the figures given above, as
there. was a good deal of overtime worked.
The last six months trade with all the es-
adjustments was dull, but in the last thir-
". days there has been a decided improve
ment, and at one establishment last week
they were working $50 hands until 10 d. m.
and the others were working full time and
nearly up to their usual force for some
months past. All the concerns are we'll
backed financially. One of the proprietors
of the larger of the establishments said Sat
urday it now seemed as if by April they
would be running full handed and full time.
From week to week they are increasing
their force. Many of the girls become quite
skilled in handling sewing machines. and do
some rapid work, making very good wages.
The wages of the establishments range
from So to $40 a week, and some of the girls
by working overtime make S13 q week.

SUNDAY LAW V~IOLATORS.
Supt. Powell Determined to Stop Liquor
Selling-Seyeral Arrests Yesterday.

The present administration has been MAX
Ing a quiet, determined light against the
open Sunday saloons. Up 10 this time the
violators have been let down a little easy
by Judge Stubs, with the idea that, posi-
bly,, the example furnished by the arrests
would have a tendency TO check violations
OF the Sunday closing law. 1t has rot
worked that way. however, as yesterday
there were over fifteen police officers de-
tailed especially to look out for open sa-
looms. 1t has also been through the leni-
ency of the department that the saloon
keepers found guilty of violating the liquor
laws have been allowed the privilege of be-
ing conducted to the police station in any
manner except in the patrol wagon. Yester-
day Superintendent Powell issued an order
that all saloon keepers found violating the
liquor law be at once arrested and hauled
10 the police station in the patrol wagon.
The liquor law will be enforced said
the Superintendent yesterday. "if it is nee
essary for me to hire a thousand men to
do IL. and the lawbreakers will be taken
to the station in the patrol wagon"

rtgidly enforce the liquor law. the officers
went to their respective districts fully de-
termined to carry it out to the letter.
Every saloon I'm the district was visited.
and when found open the proprietor WAS
at once ordered to close. The majority
obeyed. but a few paid no attention to the
warning. Thomas McHugh, q saloon
keeper at the corner of California and
Maryland streets, was arrested by patrol
men kurtz and Lunde for failure to obev
the law. Much to his disgust. he was
hauled to the police station in the patrol
wagon. When arrested he thought he would
be allowed either to ride to the police sta
ton in a street car or to walk.

It has been a general belief that
the Populist strength in Mime
sofa was decreasing during the
last month or two, and that the
claims of strength of that party
were greatly exaggerated. The re.
cent caucuses and conventions of
that party in different parts Of tile
state held recently have indicated
this. In Minneapolis and Duluth
the attendance at caucuses was
much smaller than expected. In
Morrison county the caucuses were
very poorly attended, and at the
county convention only six Of the
twenty-three outside towns were
represented. While some dis
gusted Democrats may vote the
Populist ticket this year, and can
not be blamed much for at least
quitting their former party, it is
difficult to find what argument
could be used this year to get a
reasonable voter to desert the Re-
publican party for the Populjst.
Populist success in this state
would be of no benefit to any class,
and in fact they can promise no
improvements in state govern
ment. Their most prominent ar
guments are on the financial ques-
ton, and it is on that very ques-
ton they are furtherest from
sound principles. When one con-
siders the wild schemes advocated
by the Populist congressman and
senators, it cannot be questioned
but what the interest of the
country would be unsafe IN their
hands.

at that hour I, large number had
gathered to begin the good work.
Mayor Staples was elected chair

suggested for promptly aiding the
sufferers from fires in the territory
northwest OF Little Falls, and in
other parts. Committees were
appointed to go to Gushing, Curtis

Delegations OF ladies were at once
selected to visit the residence part of

were appointed to obtain groceries
from the merchants. A large supply
of all necessities was at the depot at

it will be possible TO send something
to the destitute at EIinckley and
