to-day that the recent issue OF bonds to

of Indiana, county cannot incur indebt-

duced the amount to ! per cent, but I'm 1898

YOUNG ANDERSON'S CRIME.
His Stealings from the Treasury Vaults
Now Reported to Be Over 500.

Special to the Indianapolis Journal.
WASHINGTON, Feb. Efforts are be-
ing made TO have the proceedings against
young James Anderson. Of Delphi, the mes
senger who was caught IN the act of alb
stracting silver coin from bags in the
vaults i'm the treasury last week, dismissed.
Senator Voorhees, and other Hoosiers have
been besieging Secretary Carlisle in behalf
of clemency for the young man. and for a
time it looked though they would sue
ceed, but recent developments make the
outlook very gloomy for him. When the
young man confessed to having stolen
thirty -eight silver dollars, and it appeared
that this was the limit OF his thefts. Sec
retary Carlisle said he might direct the
criminal proceedings 10 be dismissed ard
Anderson released from bond. An investi-
CATION showed that he had taken between
seven and eight hundred dollars, one re-
port fixing the amount at exactly SS0i
His bond was then increased from $500 to
$i.501. and the situation became more COM
piicated. as Ii appeared that there was TO
eXtenuating condition surrounding the
crime, Anderson not being in straitened
circumstances and having spent the money
in bad company. Glenn Howard. a friend
OF the family in this city, had rendered to
the Secretary of the Treasury the amount
of Anderson's stealings, but Secretary Car
isle has stated that he does not see how
he have the proceedings dismissed,
simply because the young man has influ-
entail and moneyed friends, and il looks
as though he would have to stand trial.
