WAS A HIGH ROLLER
Solicitor for the German.Amer-
lean Association i'm Trouble.
s. j. Warner, of This City, Collects
Money from Seymour Shareholders
Which He Fails to Pay Over.

S. j. Warner, a solicitor for the German
American Building and Loan Association.
of this city, has been discharged by the
association on account OF complaints from
shareholders of crooked dealings on the
part OF Warner. For several months past
he has been located at Seymour, from
which place the complaints come.
G.. W. Brown, secretary of the associa-
ton, was seen last night and asked about
the discharge of Warner. He said the first
complaint to the home office Of the asso-
citation was received a few days ago in a
confidential letter from a resident of Sey-
mour. in which it was stated that Warner
had been collecting money from share
holders. According TO the rules of the as
sociation the treasurer of the local board
at Seymour was the only one entitled 10
receive that money. y meeting OF the
board of directors was called, and c. y.
Thompson, attorney for the association,
was sent TO Seymour to investigate: 1t
was learned there that Warner had col
lected $500 from each of two men as pay
ment for paid-up stock, and had not sent
the money in. He had afterwards given the
two men security for the amount Yester-
day AIR. Brown received a letter from a
man named Vogel, stating that he had paid
Warner 500 for paid-up certificates. War
ner had sent in the application as for run
ming stock, and given Vogel certificate
for running stock. Vogel did not discover
the difference till called upon to pay an in
stallment upon his stock. Mr.. Brown says
there may have been similar transactions
for small amounts, but that any payments
made to Warner were not authorized by
the company, and the shareholders will
nave 10 seek their own redress. Warmers
family reside at No. Al Highland Place, this
city.

James b. Calvin. of Nashville. Robbed OF
$3.50 and Valuable Papers.

James B. Calvin, dealer in hides at
Nashville. Ind, reports TO the police the
loss of money and papers of the value OF
500 He came TO Indianapolis on Friday
and says that he was robbed of his money
some time Friday night Calvin entered
an East Washington-street restaurant
about O'clock yesterday morning, much
the worse for liquor. He ordered a lunch,
but before he could be served fell into
maudlin sleep. 1t was nearly O'Clock
when he awoke and made the statement
that he had been robbed He believed that
he had entered the restaurant with
young man whom he did not know and
that the latter had relieved him of his
valuables His watch was found IN his
overcoat pocket, but his purse was gone:
Calvin said that the pocketbook contained
$3.50 in cash and papers of equal value: He
remembered TO have met stranger in Well
acher's saloon on Washington street. and
had drank a considerable amount of fire
water with his new acquaintance. he de-
scribed the latter as being a snooth-faced
man, with watery blue eyes. He was con-
fident that he left the saloon in company
with this man, and insisted that they came
to the restaurant together. The clerks at
the eating house assert that CALVIN came
in alone and very drunk.

Moore. it appears. poses as a sort of

said that when he sheds the brillance of
his polished face on the domains OF the al

dusky young women their way home
from church. In the party was Martha
Diggs. gracefully tripping along on the arm
OF Alvah Coleman. who, IL seems, is bit
ter rival of Moore. Mr.. Coleman had been
attending a meeting of a military company
of which he is a member. and the sight of
his natty blue uniform had the effect of
stirring up a mighty wrath in the breast
of Moore. Backed up by his friend Shen-
naugh he proposed to relieve Coleman of
the person of Miss Diggs, and went at the
lob with the delicacy of a farmers hired
man breaking a spring colt. The coy Miss
Diggs objected to her admirers caress so
strenuously that he drew a pistol from
his pocket and vowed he would shoot her
in she did not compose herself.
During this time Moore's partner was
busy with his knife. and had succeeded in
Stabbing young Coleman several times be-

HAUGHVILLE SCHOOL BOARD.
That Real Estate Deal Is Much Dis
cussed 10y the People.

The School Board of Haughville is get
ting much the worst OF the discussions
over their part of the scheme I'm the school
site episode, while Nelson is coming I'm for
his share OF the criticism. The Democrats
are divided in opinion as to the trouble.
The ring is greatly put out, but can
offer no arguments in their favor while the
progressive element stand around with
their hands in their pockets and give out
a knowing smile. The Republicans are
quietly going the rounds for further devel-
opments.
\ number of citizens were gathered In a
favored meeting place yesterday afternoon,
and. of course. the action of the School
Board was the topic. A citizen who has
always been identified with fne active De-
mocracy. and who desired that his name
be withheld from the public. said the ac-
tons of the present board had been worthy
of criticism ever since its appointment
When first In Office they had declared that
civil service rules were TO be OBJ
served in the appointment of teachers.
This citizen further said that he could not
think of "A single Republican teacher in the
entire present list of teachers, but what
wds worse than this where appointments
could have been made from worthy ones in
the town. the board had gone TO the city
for teachers. Another thing that is point
against them, is that some time ago they
asked the Town Board TO appropriate $12,-
COO with which To build an addition to
School No. l, which is situated on King
avenue. What made their action or petit
ton seem so untimely was the fact that i'm
the school house west of the tracks, there
one room that could not be used on
account of the lack Of scholars Failing i'm
this. they Immediately turned around and
asked the Town Board to appropriate

school house No. l. which they sal would
be needed in the near future TO build an
addition 10 the old building. Ii was
known fact that the lots could be bought
for $50 and still the board asked that 81 100

Conferred with the Board.

Yesterday afternoon Messrs. Kramer and
Meyer, OF the Board of Public Works, con-
suited with the relief committee ON the
subject Of providing work for the unem-
ployed patrons of the food market. The
board members desired to know whether
or not the club would furnish enough labor
to represent $4,000 of the relief fund, pro-
vided the city would put into operation
at once the contemplated Garfield Park
work This question has before been pre-
scented to- the committee, and the reply has
invariably been that the Commercial Club
has no right to dictate as TO the specific
expenditure OF the funds in it's charge. 1t
was explained to the representatives of
the cmg that the club would furnish all
the laSor at its command, but did not think
Il advisable 10 agree to the proposed plan.
One OF the Objectionable features advanced
was that IL would be unfair to ask men
living I'm the northeast part of Indianapo-
lis TO walk ten miles in going to and from
their work. 1t was shown that the major
portion OF the cries for work emanate
from that section which is too remote from
the park 10 admit OF the thought OF walk
ing. The board members were advised
to secure street-railway transportation for
a hundred men a day, and left the COM
mittee with the intention of looking into
the suggestion.
