MAY FESTIVAL REHERSALS.
The Big Chorus Rapidly Perfecting It.
self i'm Its Work.

The May festival chorus had it's tenth re-
hearsal at the High School building last
night. OF the three hundred members, 225
were present, the attendance being the
largest Of any rehearsal thus far. Under
the skillful baton of Professor Ahrens the
chorus is rapidly perfecting itself in the
music chosen for the coming festival, and
the singing of numbers from the "Mes-
tersinger' last night was in itself a musical
treat Parts of the oratorio st Paul."
the spinning chorus from 1.-The Flying
Dutchman," portions of "Lohengrin," the
march from "Tannhauser' and Bruch's
Fair Ellen" were also rehearsed last
night, and in all of them the chorus showed
remarkable strength and harmony. 1t
looks as if this approaching festival was
going to furnish the best choral music
ever known in the city. Rehearsals will
be continued steadily during April and the
first week In May. on May 8, IL ana IA
gagged and on the first two dates the
guarantorS will be invited to listen to the
final rehearsals and thus know the result
of the work Of preparing for this annual
great occasion. On May IL the final grand
rehearsal with soloists and orchestra will
take place.
The directors Of the festival association
hope to sell 1000 season tickets, ranging in
price from 81 to $40, according to the loca-
ton of the seats 1t is the ambition Of the
directors to have a winning year, and with
the nucleus thus gained to start a music hall
fund They want to form a permanent or
ganization and to build music hall as
soon possible, one that will be an orna-
ment to the city and give the association
a suitable place to hold it's annual festi-
walls and to prepare for these occasions.
In this building they hope to gather the
Art Association and other kindred organi-
cations. The prospects this year, they say,
are brighter than ever before for a great
festival and a satisfactory financial out

WASHINGTON, March ga large Iaily

ditional evidence is filed within thirty days

The Pension Bureau has sent another no
tice Of suspension to Judge Charles d.

The notice is as follows: II have to ad-

dence on file in this bureau that you are
not disabled to such degree as to require
the regular and constant aid and attend
ance or another person so as TO entitie you
to $72 per month the rate of pension which
you are now receiving. Said rate will,

ApolOgized to COrriEan.

Last Saturday afternoon crowd Of men
were blocking up the sidewalk on Wash
ington street near Pennsylvania street, and
among the crowd was prominet broker
on South Meridian street Patrolman Cor
rigan ordered the men to move on, and
the broker, who several sheets in
the wind" grew very indignant at what
he claimed encroachment on the
average Americans privileges. He de-
parted soon after. though in a very gloomy
mood. Yesterday In a similar condition,
he accosted patroman Corrigan, and swore
that Saturdays action had Inundated him
for lie. The broker stated that he went
home and dreamed of the affair all Satur-
day night. On Sunday ii was worse than
ever. He added that he was unable 10
go to church on account of thinking of
the affair. Sunday night his thoughts were
almost too horrible TO endure, and ysster-
day morning, on leaving home. he resolved
to beg Corrigdn'S pardon for his actiOns
which he believed had led the officer to sus-
pcct that he was intending TO disregard the
city's law. The apology was duly ac-
ceDtel

INDIANA TAX CASES.
Arguments to he Heard by the United
States Supreme Court To-Day.

arguments 10 lie Heard by the United
States Supreme Court To-Day.
Special to the Indianapolis Journal
WASHINGTON, March 26.-The Indiana
railroad tax cases are to be argued before
the United States Supreme Court to-mor-
row. Attorney-general Green Smith, W. a.
Ketcham and Albert j. Beveridge will
speak for the State and John T. Dye and
John NJ. Butler for the railroads. The time
for the arguments was to-day, but the
court extended one hour upon each side.
Associate Justice Jackson Will not be on
the bench when the arguments are sub
mitted, but he will participate In the con-
c!uSionS. When the cases were called to-
day on the calendar the court room was
well filled with Indiana men, there being
and the attorneys, John w. Kern and S.
q. Pickens Governor Matthews, Secretary
of State w. r. Myers. Auditor Henderson.
Deputy Auditor Tanning, Tax Commission
ers Walker and Allen, and J. A. Bayless.
The cases excite a great deal of
attention outside of Indiana circles.
During the afternoon the entire
the floor of the House, where they were
shown unusual attention. People here are
tnquiring why the tax commissioners and
State officers generally are here at this
time. If they come to advise the counsel,
the latter have not been advised of the
fact, and Will probably not avail themselves
of the fund of information offered. 1t is
surmised by some that Governor Matthews
and his followers are here on a political
mission, although they strenuously deny
that they have any other thought or object
here than the tax cases.

THE wATCHMAN ASLEEP.
Horace Brown, n Proprietor, Pulled
Him Out of the BUILDING


The origin of the fire was probably in
cendiary The blaze was first discovered
in the rear part of the building Horace
Brown, one Of the proprietors, who lives
within short distance of the establish
ment. arrived within a few seconds after
the alarm was sent in He claims that he
found the Waterman asleep on a lounge in
the Office and that he awakened him and
told him that the building was on fire. He
denies the statement that the building was
set on fire, though offering no other theory
as to its origin. He stated that several
days. ago he spoke to his partner Mr..
not be much hope of saving the building,
as he suspected the watchman slept the
greater part Of the time. and that an alarm
would not be sent in until the flames would
have gained great Roadway. This state
ment of Mr.. Brown is credited on account
of the fact that the alarm was sent in
by the members of company No. IL, who
are just across the street
Chief Webster arrived at the scene a few
moments after the turning in of the alarm
and found the interior of the building one
mass OF flames. He saw that it would be
useless to attempt to save the building.
and he ordered his men to cOnfine their
efforts to saving the houses adjacent The
interior of the building was rapidly Quilted.
burning out the supports of the walls The
houses on either side were not over eight
feet from the burning building but such
was the effectiveness of the firemenS work
lflat, WIFI the e8CepllOn Oh t1keS
house on the north, they suffered little
damage.
Chief Webster stated that on first arriv-
ing at the fire he heard reports similar to
those of firearms. He at first thought that
ammunition was confined in the building
but was informed by the proprietors that
such was not the case. The reports were
afterwards attributed to the fact that the
pneumatic tires had exploded on becoming
overheated.
Sergeant LaPorte stated that he passed
the building few minutes before the dis
covery of the fire. He said that he contin-
ued walking on down Virginia avenue and
had arrived but u few squares beyond
when the alarm was sent in. He FASTENED
back and found the building in flames He
stated that he saw the Waterman just issu-
ing from the building, but does not know
IL the Waterman was in the act of carry
ing goods from the building. Sergeant La
Porte, with many others Of the police force
attempted to carry out the goods, but the
extreme heat of the flames and the thick
ness of the smoke drove them out after
short time. When it was thought that the
houses on either side would be burned the
officers carried out the household goods to
neighboring yards. Patrolman Albertsmeyer
suffered a mashed foot by having heavy
stand drop on il.

Special to the Indianapolis Journal.
WASHINGTON, March 26.-Benjamin T.
Havens, of Terre Haute, is here again. He
came simultaneously with Governor Mat

which he has had just ahead of him ever
since the present administration began. He

When Benjamin heard the Governor was
on his way here he started forthwith. Mr..
HaYenS wants 10 go either to Manchester
