been raised by letter carriers in several
cities to the requirements Of the Postoffice
Department concerning the purchase of car
riers uniforms, although formal pro-
test has been made. First Assistant Post

with the carrier and postmaster, as pro-
vided in Section GLIB of the postal laws and

ton of uniforms every six months by the

require a new suit or any article Of ii to be
purchased when that in use is In reason
ably good condition. When proper he may
require any carrier to purchase a new uni
form or part OF one, and the carrier must
appear neat and tidy as the service will

ment in contracting for the uniforms

uniforms at q lower price. There is nothing
compulsory in Ii further than is already

charges against Lorenzo Stewart and his
wife, Junietta, who were arrested some
time ago for burglary and grand larceny.

home on Yandes street. At the time OF the
robbery the Ninth-street family was away
from home and the theft was not detected
until their return The goods were found
in the possession of the Stewards, and the
police believed that a strong case could be
made against them. When brought into
court yesterday Stewart withdrew his for
mer plea of not guilty and confessed to the
theft. Judge Cox, in the face OF the strong
evidence and the confession of Stewart him.
self that he had committed a bold rob
berry, imposed a slight wOrkhouse sentence,
and learning that the prisoner was under
age, facetiousy added a term Of disfran-
chisement The attorney for the woman en-
tered nolle prosequi proceedings in her case,
which were sustained by the court and she

Entire City Yesterday.

Entire City Yesterday.
Special to the indianapolis Journal.
ALEXANDRIA, Ind, April 2.-Memorial
services over the remains of Ora E. Ball
and Jesse Harold, two of the men who
lost their lives in the explosion Saturday
night. took place this morning at the opera
house, no church being large enough to
accommodate the multitude. The large hall
was crowded to the doors. and the scores
of sympathizers who were unable to gain
admission organized an overflow meeting,
over which the Mayor of the city presided.
The entire city was draped in mourning,
and not a business house kept open during
the ceremonies. The remains of Ora Ball
were afterwards taken to his old home at
Lewisville, Ind, and those of Jesse Har-
rold to North Manchester The interment
of both will take place tomorrow. Similar
memorial services will be held tomorrow
over the charred corpSes of Charles Hoover
and Harry Bowyer, who suffered the same
lamentable fate at the same time. mass
meeting of the citizens met tonight at the
opera house to pass appropriate resolutions
and to raise a relief fund for the destitute
families. Mr. Ball was a member of the
X of p and l. o. O. +. lodges, and was
man of excellent character and high moral
courage. OF the three who were rescued,
the only one who was dangerously hurt is
H. Hurd, butcher, who in all probability
will lose a leg. The coroner held an in
quest, and his verdict was that the explo
sion resulted from escaping. gas In the
Harrell & Pyle's barber shop. 1t is believed
that the gas was ignited from jet that
had been left burning in the office. Bowyer
had been married but seven months, and
he met death on his birthday Mrs. Bowyer
was prostrated yesterday, and is now con-
fined TO her bed. All of the men killed were
married less than four years, with the ex-
ception of Ball, who was single.

VOORHEES, OVERDID 1T
He Lauded Zinsich Until Cleve-
land Began to Doubt Him.
Now the Captain May Not Get the Steam
boat InspectOrship-Wealth
of Indiana in 1890.


Special to the Indianapolis Journal.
WASHINGTON, April 2-The new super
vising inspector of steam vessels for the
Sixth district will be appointed soon. but
there is every reason to believe that Capt.
Zinsich will not be the lucky man. in spite
of all the countless trips Senator Voorhees,
and Representative Taylor have made to
the White House and to the treasury in
the Evansville mans behalf. The appoint
ment will probably go to Dabney Scales, of
Memphis. Mr.. Scales has the support of
Representative Patterson, of the Memphis
district, and as that gentleman, since his
flop into the cuckoo ranks, has been given
almost everything that he has the nerve
to ask, ii is the belief at the Treasury De-
partment that he will succeed in his pres
ent struggle for the inspectorship. Mr.. Tay
Tor was very confident recently that Capt.
Zinsich would be appointed, but statements
from well-informed treasury officials do
not warrant his confidence. The term of the
present inspector, John Ingle, expired Aug.
Z, 1893, but no active steps were taken TO
name his successor until about last Christ
mas, when Captain Zinsich arrived in town
and opened aggressive operations. He was
taken To the White House and introduced
to President Cleveland by Senator Noor-
hees who. in his usual extravagant way,
lauded the Captain uD to the skies, and
rather gave the President to understand
that Captain Zinsich exercised personal SUI
perNlslOn over the eDD anu now OF the tues,
and might have been Robert Fulton If he
had not preferred to be an Evansville DEM
Ocrat. Mr.. Cleveland was impressed with
Mr.. Voorhees's statements. but, knowing
his man, took occasion recently to verify
some of the Sycamore'S statements. He
found that Captain Zinsich, instead of be-
ing a steamboat captain, with knowledge,
skill and practical experience in steam for
navigation. as the statutes demand, was
the master of q ship chandlery, and that,
instead of being a competent judge of the
character vessels
parts of machinery used in steamers" prob
ably knew more about ships binnacles and
grease. Mr.. Carlisle will take up the case
this week, and the appointment may be
made early this month. Messrs. Voorhees,
and Taylor have not abandoned their chase
for the office, which pays $1,000 a year.

His mother was a French lady on the
island named Sequard The son was edu-
Gated in Mauritius. and completed his
studies in Paris In 1916 he received the
degree NJ. D., and at once plunged into
physiological experiments, making many
important discoveries He received five
prizes from the French Academy of Sci

British Royal Society. He was the first 10

corning the connection of the spinal cord
with the cerebrum were greatly clarified by
his Investigations. In May 1858, he delivered
a series OF lectures on the nervous system
before the Royal College of Physicians and

time he founded his second medical journal

Later he returned to Paris and in 1878
succeeded Claude Bernard in the chair of
experimental medicine in the College of
France, being also elected to similar chair
in the French Academy. Since that time he
has acquired wonderful fame for his treat
ment of difficult and obscure diseases of
the spinal column and nervous system. He
made numerous visits TO England and
America, delivered many lectures, instruct
ing physicians in his discoveries and IL
lustratng by vivisection. He was a MEM

had published several American volumes
on nervous diseases. None or his work
perhaps, threw him into such general no.
toriety as his elixir of life concoction which
caused such a furor among physicians in
all the civilized world about four years ago.
