The steps taken in New Yorl
Saturday to foreclose the consoli.
dated mortgage on the Louisville
Evansville & Saint Louis, saws the
indianapolis Journal, were not in
the nature of a surprise, and that il
is friendly step to get the financial
affairs of the company Strengthened
out is evident from the fact that the
same receivers are continued who
have held the positions since Janu-
airy 4, 1894, and have handled the
property with decided ability. ID.
J. Mackey got control Of this pro-
perry III 1899, placing a general
mortgage on it of $4,000 900 to
take up all classes OF Indebtedness !:
s., 016, $50 OF this sum was to take
up the preferred stock, $4,000 to
pay money advanced by the Evans
vile & Terre Haute, and $685.. 400
held as claims for money advanced
by the trustees on collateral loans.
On September IL, 1894, the stock
exchange reported $2,432 900 OF
these bonds as having been listed
up to that date. The Louisville.
Evansville & Saint Louis operates
between Louisville, Ky, and East
Saint Louis, Ill. 215 miles; branches
to Evansville, Rockport, etc, in In
diana, 80 miles; total, 36S miles.
Of which 353 miles i owned and is
miles trackage; 345 miles are steel.
from 30 to 20 pounds. Also owns
Venice & Carondelet, leased to East
Sa mt Louis, connecting, seven miles.
Portions main line operated under
trackage rights; Louisville to New
Albany, six miles; Walnut Hill To-
Centralia, seven and one-half miles.
The receivers report dated March
4, 1894, stated that about 1900
900 should be expended during the
next six years to put the road in
condition for its safe and econom-
zeal operation, $237 600 being need
ed in the year lS94-95. On Janu-
AIRY 5. 1894, current liabilities were
1901, 116; current assets, not in
Guiding materials on hand. 1929
759."
The above shows that the road i
mortgaged for $il, $3.50 mile, and
OF course. those who are compelled
to use it are expected to pay rates
enough to meet the expenses Of the
road, the salaries Of officers, and the
interest on the indebtedness. The
road did not cost the owners one
half Of that sum-and some means
should be devised by which the
'peculating excess should be de-
clared fraudulent, and the people
,nly have to pay fair return on
he actual cost. Freight and pas
engcr rates could then be lower.

Notwithstanding the Republican
yell about the suspension Of pen
sions the last payment at the In
dianapolis pension agency for the
state of Indiana was a record break
er. The immense sum of g., 1876,
505.92 was paid, which is the great
est paid during the same length
Of time within the history OF the
state. Instead Of publishing false
and malicious insinuations concern
ing the absurd hostility Of the pres
eat administration to honest pen
sioners, some of our Republican ex-
changes would do a great service Of
justice, to themselves, and their read
ers by informing the people that the
old soldiers of Indiana are receiving
more money III pensions under

did under our own dear Benny's

RIOT AT CHICAGO.

striking 'Longshoremen Attempt to Drive
Men from Work.
CHICAGO, May 24.-One hundred strik-
ing 'longshoremen. some of them armed
with revolvers. coupling-pins and clubs,
marched to the freight house of the West
crn Transit company, at Rush and Michi-
gan streets, at 10 o'clock PAN. and or
dered the men engaged in ldSaing steam
ers at the dock, and who are working un-
der the direction of O'Connor g. Co., of
Buffalo, to quit work. One of the intru-
ders who acted rs spokesman was struck
on the head with club by one of the men
at work, and this assault almost provoked
riot. Several shots were fired, bricks
were thrown, and clubs were used Joe
Williams received bullet wound in the
left ear and man named Furling was hit
on the head with n brick. As soon as the
stevedore who was Mt work struck the
leader of the invaders the men in the
street made q rush for the main en-
trance.
Officers Flanagan and Claus stood Mt
the door with drawn revolvers and kept
Fetse-crOypd back until n patrol WAGON loud
of officers came from the East Chicago
Avenue station. The policemen used
their clubs freely and chased the crowd
on Michigan street to Rush street across
the bridge to the south side. The officers
were reinforced by eight or ten policemen
in the district. and in fifteen minutes there
was not rioter in the vicinity. The
loading of the boats was resumed without
further interference. This conflict is the
first that has occurred since the longshore-
men went on strike three weeks ago.
