CHASE MEMORIAL FUND.
An Appeal in Behalf of the Widow of
the Late Governor of Indiana.

To the Editor of the Indianapolis Journal
The citizens of Indiana are interested in
knowing that the late Ex-Governor Ira
]. Chase died before making adequate pro-
vision for the care OF his wife, concern
ing which 1 deem it important to make a
brief statement. At the time of Mr..
Chases death numerous and conflicting
statements appeared in the public prints
concerning his financial affairs, which
differing statements have greatly hindered
the success of the enterprise inaugurated
by Mr.. Chases friends to provide a home
and future support for his wife. Having
been chosen by Mrs. Chase to have charge
of her business affairs 1 am prepared
to state the exact financial situation, to
which / ask the careful consideration of
a patriotic and generous public.
Mr.. Chase left $1,000 life insurance writ
ten for his wifes benefit, the proceeds of
stances, will not realize over 500 year,
and 1 now state that this sum is the
only provision available for the support
Of Mrs: Chase There Is an additional
$1,000 life insurance. payable to the estate
or Mr.. Chase, which will be wholly abb
sorbed in paying debts.
Mrs. Chase has no home, as stated in
several papers. her only property consist
ing Of a lot i'm Irvington, covered by a
mortgage, which she is unable to pay.
1t will occur to all right-minded people that
these statements furnish a sufficient ex-
PLANTATION of the memorial fund in behalf
of Mrs. Chase. 1t is proper to state that
thus far. the offerings to the memorial
\fund have not met the expectations of its
promoters.
1 now wish to remind the. people of our
good State that this appeal in behalf of
Mrs. Chase rests on the broad basis of
patriotism and State pride Mrs. Chase is
the widow of the Ex-Governor of Indiana
and the true issue is, shall she be allowed
TO go through the remainder of her life
blind. helpless and without shelter, to
say nothing of her future care? Is 1t not
the fitting and righteous thing to proceed
at once to make ample provision for the
comfort of this noble woman, who so
we'll deserves our. best gifts?
In conclusion, Mr.. Editor, I feel sure
that you will join in this closing state
ment that it we'll becomes the patriotic
people of indiana to make prompt and
generous response to the memorial fund
in behalf Of Mrs. Chase. All offerings to
this fund will be properly acknowledged
and devoted to the purpose, first. OF pro-
curing a modest home for Mrs. Chase. and
as far as possible. securing her future

the Republican party, and there will be
a strong temptation to attempt to COM

foreshadow or in some way influence the
action OF the national convention of next
year. 1t is TO be hoped that this will not
be attempted. The real mission of Re-
publican clubs is TO perfect plans of
work and cultivate Republican enthu-
siasm, and the convention which meets
to-day can find work enough on these
lines without trying to forecast or fore
stall the action of the next national
convention. Any attempt of that kind
will make trouble and impair the future
usefulness of the National League.

REPUBLICAN NATIONAL LEAGUE.

The annual meeting of the National
League of Republican Clubs has come to
be regarded as a political event of ma
tional Importance and of special interest
to Republicans. The league itself dates
from 1887. Early in that year the Re-
publican Club OF New York city began
the work of enlisting the Republican
clubs already in existence into one COM
pact body, and, by means of circulars
and lie tiers. the existence of about three
hundred clubs was discovered. A ma
tional convention of these organizations
was held in New York city, Dec. 10 to II,
1887. with about 1.5Oo delegates in at
tendance from twenty-three States and
Territories. At that meeting National
Republican League was formed, to be
composed of State leagues. which in turn
were to be made up of local clubs. This
organization and the approaching cleo
ton gave an impetus to the formation
of local clubs, and by August, 1888, no
less than $500 clubs were reported. with
an estimated membership of one million
voters. State leagues were formed and
State conventions of Republican clubs
were held during the presidential cam
paign of 1855 in nearly all the Northern
States. and a great work was done in
distributing campaign documents and
enrolling voters. Since then the league
has held annual conventions. the one
which meets in Cleveland to-day being
the eighth.
In its origin and conception the Ma
tional League was voluntary organiza-
ton. intended to advance Republican
principles by bringing Republicans to-
gether. promoting unity OF feeling and
action. and keeping up touch OF elbows
throughout the party. As delegate
convention of local organizations. a club
of clubs. 1t is thoroughly representa-
tive body. and yet 1t is not authorized TO
formulate any line of action or commit

THE SUPREME COURT.
Changes I'm the Law to Appeals
Suggested by Justice Harla0.

ROCHESTER, ~. Y, June 1S.-Justico
Harlan, of the Supreme Court Of the United
States, has been in Rochester since Sa;ur-
day, visiting his son. Judge Harlan expects
to return to Washington soon. When asked
concerning the present condition of the cal
endar OF the Supreme Court, which for
years has been overcrowded and IL the re-
cent legislation would help the judges dis
pose of the questions now before them. he
replied:
MANY cases whlch under the previous
system were taken from the Circuit Courts
of the United States directly to the Supreme
Court of the United States now go 10 the
Courts of Appeals for final decision. Before
the present system was adopted the num-
Der of cases on the docket at the Supreme
Court at the close of each term was between
800 and 1000. At the close OF the recent

AS to what additional legislation Is
CURED IL is difficult 10 say. In one respect
there ought 10 be change. Under the ex-
Supreme Court that ought to go TO the
Circuit Courts of Appeal and be there final

present statutes are very defective. a man
convicted in a State court OF the United
States files an application for writ OF
habeas corpus claiming that he is restrained
of his liberty in violation of the Constitu-
ton OF the United States. The Circuit
Court may deny the application on the
ground that no federal right has been IN
vaded by these proceedings In the state
court The applicant then prosecutes a
writ OF error on appeal 10 the supreme
Court OF the United States, now the existing
statutes forbid anything being done In exc
cution OF the judgment OF the state court

preme Court of the United States. Many
cases have been brought to our court in
this manner when there was no reason
whatever TO say that the State law or the

The Porte,. LATEST RepIy.

CONSTANTINOfLE, June 1S.-The Turk
ish government has made fresh reply 10
the note of the powers outlining the re-
forms insisted on for Armenia. The Porte
accepts the principle of the proposed re-
forms. but requests that several of the
points be discussed before any action Is
taken. The Turkish government also denies
that the terms of the treaty of Berlin con-
fer the right of demanding the guarantee
formulated by the powers and expresses
the hope that the Sultan'S sovereign rights
will not be prejudiced.
The impression which prevails here Is
that this last reply is tantamount to a re-
fusal, and it is feared that the powers will
adopt more urgent measures to enforce
their demands. The British Mediterranean
squadron, which arrived at Beyrout on
June 3. has sailed from that port for Tripo-
Il. Reinforcements of Russian troops. IL has
now been. definitely ascertained, have been
sent to the Turkish frontier in the vicinity
of Armenia in order to prevent the passag e
