Mr.. M'KEEN ON THE STAND.
Evidence i'm the Union Railway Tax
Case Continued.

Judge Reinhard adjourned the hearing in
the Union railway tax case at 8 o'clock yes
terday afternoon until 10 o'clock this morn
ing. The railroad company will to-day con-
clude its examination with the testimony
of Captain W.. X. Myers who. as Secretary
Of State, was a member of the tax board
of 1893. Encouragement Smith occupied
the time yesterday morning in an argu-
ment. He wanted the evidence of W. r.
McKeen, Joseph Ramsey. jr.. and James
McCrea stricken from the record, because,
as the State contended, IL did not show
the fraud alleged in the complaint. The
Encouragement insisted that the court had
no right to change the tax assessment If
it was shown that ii was too high. The
court, he held, could only interfere when
fraud was shown. which had not been done
in this case. Mr.. Smith insisted that by
the evidence of the plaintiffs own wit
nesses it had been shown that the property
of the Union and Belt railway is worth
more than 81. 100000.
Judge Reinhard overruled the motion to
strike out the Objectionable evidence and
Mr.. Smith subsidized. w. r. McKeen, pres
ident of the Vandalia railway, was on The
stand yesterday afternoon. From 1891 to
1893 he Yves president of the Union Railway
Company. He said that Poor's Manual,
previous to 1888, was not accurate as 20 the
value of the property he represented. 1t
Is probable that the State will call no wit
nesses TO the stand. Attorney Ketcham
announced yesterday afternoon that he pre-
ferred to hear the testimony of Capt. W.
would be. Judge Reinhard expects to close
the case by SATURDAY. night

Pnrk-"DOctOr Cupid"

There was scarcely rosan enough at the
Park Theater last night for all the people
who wanted to get in to see Doctor Gu
pid," which is about the best farce-comedy
put on at the Park this season end a good
show In every sense. 1t made an instanta-
neous hit Frank Daniels, who formerly
starred in "Dr. Cupid" is a very funny
man. but Edward Eagleton, who takes his
place in this piece, is even better than
Daniels. and that Is saying a great deal.
Eagleton's Theophile Nudge keeps the au-
dience in a hilarious humor from begin
ming to end. His face. his hands, his eyes,
his mouth. all express a depth of feeling
wildly grotescue at times and always hu-
morous. But Eagleton is not the only one
in evidence. Scrub. the boy. is a blinking,
lisping, laundering chap, and Joe McKenna
makes him just what he ought to be. With
all its other bright things, CDR. Cupid
brings to Indianapolis the first pickaninny
band, headed by the always popular Daisy
Mayer The appearance was the signal for
more fun and encoreS were numerous.
Daisy Mayors "Bowery Girl duet with
Richard Baker is also a strong feature.
Eagleton's monologue was very clever. as
was the dancing of Hulda Halves and
Louie Rice. whose mirror act was espe-
cially good.
The company is large and the perform
ance goes with a dash that is particularly
attractive. 1t will be seen the rest of the
week.

are now prepared to consider the question

League of Musicians.
George Seibert, the veteran pioneer
musician of st. Paul, returned yester-
day from Baltimore, where he was
delegate TO the convention of the Ma
tiOnal League of Musicians, which
was held in the early part of this month.
After the business of the convention
was over, in which Mr.. Seibert took
leading part, he made visit TO the
principal cities of the East in search of
musical novelties for use during the
summer. In conversation yesterday he
stated that he had secured some of the
choicest and latest gems OF music for
the use OF both his orchestra and mill
tary band, and that the citizens of the
far Northwest would be able during the
summer t0enjoy as fine music as any
of the Eastern summer resorts would be
able to furnish.
