Murderer Taylor Playing Insane.
Snecial to the IndianannliS Journal

ROCKPORT, Ind, Nov. martin ID. Tay-
lor, the murderer of his little neice, Sallie
Davis, was arrested yesterday by detective
Hugh Hale, and is now here in jail. Taylor
is playing insane. He refuses to eat or talk.
1t is thought that he will plead guilty of
infiicting the wounds that caused Miss Da-
vis's death. Much excitement prevails in
the locality of the murder. Martin ID. Tay-
lor is brother OF Frank Taylor who was
sent TO the penitentiary from Leavenworth
this week for a term of three years for
horse-stealing. Miss Davis was an orphan.
and since the death of her parents had
made her home with her uncle. On the day
of the burial of Miss Davis excitement ran
so high that Taylor was frightened away
before the burial took place. Miss Daviss
death was the result of a beating and kick
ing given by her uncle.

DR.. Whitman's inaugural.

The ceremonies that are to take place
cas:on of the II auguration of DIR. Whitman
as president of the Columbian University
will be unusually interesting, not only to
the local sons of Columbian, who are numer-
lie, in view of the bearing of the ceremonies
upon the advancement of the capital as an
educational center. DIR. Whitman's coming
into the local field Is regarded by many as
a new and powerful factor for the future
development of the capital in this regard,
and he has already given evidence of ex-
ceptional ability in the administration of
university affairs, so that the friends of
Columbian are encouraged to expect most
prosperous future for that Institution.
There are no stronger ties with which to
bind Washington to the interest and affec-
ton Of the people Of the United States than
those which are formed in the youth of the
nation who assemble here In attendance
upon our educational Institutions. and who
are to flock to the federal city in ever in
creasing numbers as our great universities
develop more and more. The upbuilding
and enlarged prosperity of any one of it's
universities means a Strengthening Of the
capitals hold upon the regard and patriotic
pride of the American people, so that all
Washington takes lively and reasonable
interest in Columbian's ceremonies tonight.

ever. The Justice. with Nuaint so1emnity,
averred that there was no fender invented
that could comply with the regulation. and
that, therefore, the mayor and his coun-
cillors had exceeded their authority. The
justice should have looked beyond the tip Of
his own nose. beyond the confines Of deadly
Fulton street. where the trolley cars are
so thick that they form a continuous pro-
cession. He might have learned that there
are practicable tenders on the market and
that they can be successfully run ahead of
rapidly moving cars within the mayor s
limitations. At all events, even If the pre-
scribed distance from the ground is too
short. he should have taken note of the fact
that the non-fending tenders that the
Brooklyn companies adopted, in defiance Of
the regulation, have proved absolutely
worthless, as the population of Brooklyn, it
Is recorded. has been decreased by 131
through the agency of the trolley cars since
the tenders were adopted. 1t should be
plain even to modern Dogberry that if the
municipality can compel the railroads to
equip the cars with any tenders, they can
compel the use of tenders that are effective

Mcknew's "Daily Letter"

Here is hint which may prove
OF great value. A lady selected
coat from three houses in Washing
ton, had them sent up on approval
and came in the next day and re.
marked, "The coats sold around
Washington look very much alike,
but, oh, what a difference when they
are laid side by side and compared
by a strong light in the quiet of your
home" She kept our coat. While
we do not make a practice of send
ing coats home to every one we pro-
pose to do it hereafter, for it is only
by comparison that ours plainly
show their superiority in quality of
cloth, the buttons, button-holes, fin
ish of seams, shape in the back, full
ness and set of the sleeves, &c. The
fact that our cloak business is way
ahead of that of any previous season
proves conclusively that more of you
are approaching their stylishness ard
general superiority. We have word
from our manufacturers in New
York that new shipment of coats
and capes will arrive tomorrow
Saturday morning. See these by all
means if you have a coat to buy.

DOgberry Redivivus.

A Brooklyn justice has tackled the fender
question and has brought forth most re-
markable decision. To him were submitted
two plain questions: First, whether the
mayor and common council had the right to
order the rapid-transit car lines in that city
to provide tenders; and, second, whether
they could lawfully require that these fend-
ers should not be so constructed as to be
more than three inches from the ground.
The justice declared that the authorities I'M
doubtedly had the power to enact legislation
that looked to the preservation of life and
limb, but that they had no right to deter
mine the height at which the protective de-
vices should be ca risd. In other words,
that the railroad co.. :panies might violate
the ordinance with impunity by providing
nominal fender, hung at a height which
prevented 1t from being Of any service what

Consolidated Street Car Lines.

Several weeks ago The Star published an
article giving few notes on the street
railway transportation facilities Of certain
other cities. tending to show that the con-
solidation of these interests in any COM
munity is disadvantageous to the patrons
of the car lines. Since then the people of
Philadelphia have begun to feel the grip
of the trolley trust grow heavier as the
various competing lines have one by one
been swallowed until there Is today no
means Of rivalry and no way to check the
growth Of the monopoly, except by vote of
the city council, which unfortunately is
completely subservient to the great syndi-
cate. The latest act of the trust is the
abolition of free transfers that have hith-
erto been of great advantage to the poor
and the substitution of eight-cent fares for
continuous rides over certain combinations
of lines. Says the "City and County," pub
lished there:
1.-The people of Philadelphia are having
an opportunity just now to witness, as they
have never seen before, the extent of the
power of the newly formed consolidation of
street railways. 1t is very evident that the
people have been suddenly and deeply
stirred by the action of the Union Traction
Company as hardly anything else could
have moved them. For the time being,
pecially In the northeastern wards, the
Union Traction Company is the issue of the
day, and unless there shall be a rapid
abatement of the antagonistic sentiment.
this factor will prove to be one of the most
important elements in the next municipal
campaign"
AS a consequence of this action the peo-
pie are talking of legal steps to prevent the
abolition of transfers on the ground that
the original charters of the roads are being
Violated. This shows clearly that competi-
ton is the only thing that can save the
jewellers in large cities from oppression,
competition on equal grounds of territory,
facilities and equipment. Consolidation of
main trunk lines should be fought bitterly
as the chief agency of the trust, while
there should be encouraged and aided all
proper steps towards the combination of
weak ones. If there still remain competition
between large systems.

From the Philadelphia Press.

THIIHutIpHIa
The new rule adopted Sy,the Union Trac-
ton Company as to the stopping of cars at
street crossings goes into effect today.
There will be brief stop on the near side to
see that the crossing is clear, which in prac-
tice will mean doubtless only a slackening
of the speed of the car. The full stop will
be made at the far side when there Is any
one to get on or off. A little better time
probably can be made under this rule, which
has its advantages, though we believe the
near side stop is the safest.
