Office OF Co. Supt.,
Will'nar, Mimi, Sept. %, 1895

At a recent meeting of the
Cook County Republican Central
Committee of Chicago, ILL.,, there
was enacted one of, if not the
most, disgraceful scenes ever
marked the workings of machine
politics. The members of the
two factions came to blows, and
at this writing one of the parti-
cipants in this highly civilized
conference is not expected to live.
The police was called to quell the
disturbance but no arrests were
made, probably for the reason
that the politicians concerned in
the riot hold the police force in the
hollow, of their hands. What
would the result have been had
such an occurrence taken place in
a meeting Of prohibitionists, soci-
alists, populist. or any of the re-
form parties? The fact would
have been telegraphed all over

sTATE COMMISSION CANNOT DETER
NINE ON SOUTHERN PRISON BOARD.
The Final Meeting Will BE Held Next
Observation-Disclosures Supertntend-
ents Open Bids.

The State commission met again yester-
day afternoon to name the directors of the
Southern Prison. 1t had been rumored
that an agreement had been reached where
by Treasurer Scholz was to secure votes
for his friend, Nugent, of Evansville, and
Attorney general Ketcham was to have his
way about Sharpe, of Charlestown. 1t is
the rule of the beard that only those who
receive a unanimous vote of the four Re-
publican members are elected The board
was in session only about thirty minutes,
and soon ascertained that the condition
had not changed. They talked short time
about Treasurer Scholzs trip to New York
in connection with the State bond refund
ment and then took another recess. Mr..
Scholz left on the evening train for New
York and will not return until Thursday.
There will be no meeting until then, but 1t
is given out that the meeting will be the
last one an agreement being certain by
that time.

Remy was here in the interest of a Column

COL. LILLY SAVES WAWASEE.
Prevents Farmers from Cutting
Dam-Purchases the Hotel.

Col. Eli Lilly has been at Wawasee for
several days, and the dispatches from there
speak as if he has saved the lake from
the mercenary designs of the farmers It
seems that the farmers were on the point
of cutting the dam near the Crow property.
hoping thereby to reclaim several acres of
ground for farming purposes. Colonel Lilly
arrived just in time to prevent this Max
inkuckee people will, of course, claim that
had the dam been cut the lake would have
returned to it's natural condition-that of a
swamp-but this the Wawasee people deny,
for they say the only result would have been
to lower the water in the lake few feet
and thereby detract from its beauty as a
summer resort. Colonel Lilly has now
gained control of sufficient property near
the outlet on the Crow property to insure
the safety of the dam. Thursday Colonel
Lilly purchased the hotel, which has been
the property of the Cedar Beach Club. He
bought the property, INCLUDING all the fur,
nishings, for $4,000 att sheriffs sale at
Wabash and it is announced that the place
is to be improved considerable before the
opening of the season.
