Fruitless Attempt to Whip Con-

Henry Harmening, conductor of car No.

rather disagreeable experience late Monday
night He was held up by a party of rough
appearing meh and had he not been warned
that such would be the case, he would in
all probability have been roughly handled.
1t was on Harmening's car that two men
hauled trunk several nights ago which
is supposed to have contained the body Of
a Jew stolen from the Jewish cemetery.
The men placed the trunk on the and
rode to near the Union Station when they
removed it and started toward the station.

thing wrong, but it seems that certain per-

than he cared to tell, and they decided to

and a big roll of manuscript, came over

to-day at the Office of Mcbride & Denny.
who are the attorneys for the corporation.
The general manager says the contract for
the construction Of the road between Ander-
son and Marion has already been awarded
and at the meeting to-day the contractors
will submit the quality of material to be
used in building the road. Mr.. Clodfelter
is sanguine in the extreme, and declares

poets to arrange for the publication OF his

THE MONUMENT WAR.
Determined Hostility of G. A. r.. Men
to COmmfs siOner LangsdnIe.

There was large attendance at George
H. Thomas Post last night, and after a
full discussion the following resolutions
were adopted by a unanimous vote
Resolved. That the effort on the part OF
certain persons and newspapers to have the.
Soldiers Monument Commission abolished IN
the interest of George j. Langsdale, is by
him indirectly agitated
Resolved, That the resignation of Mr..
Langsdale as a member of the monument
commission should be accepted Immediately,
as we believe his membership on the conn
mission has been most detrimental to the
work, very expensive to the State and a
great hindrance to the completion of the
monument.
Resolved, That the monument commits
sion should be continued to the completion
of the work, as change from a commits
sion to a regency or any other form of man
agement will disorganize and endanger the
general plan of the work, and hinder and
delay the completion of the monument"
Another resolution expresses the thanks
of the post to Hon. w. H. English for
having shown a conception of the feelings
of the members of the Grand Army in
striking contrast with the selfish and
abusive conduct of Commissioner Langs-
dale
In the course of the discussion it was de-
yeloped that the bill to place the COM
pletion of the work in the hands of three
the efforts now should be to prevent the
appointment of Mr.. Langsdale. The senti-
nent was that no objection would be made
to any other man whom the board may Sc

House. I'm Committee OF the Whole.
Adopts the First Three Sections
with Unimportant Amendments.
FOURTH SECTION KILLED
PUNISHED THOSE WHO ENTER sA-
Looms DURING UNLAWFUL HOURS.
Bill with Essential Features VIII
Pass-Able and Numerous
Speeches Made.

The Nicholson bill stood the fire Of the
House of Representatives for seven hours
yesterday, and that part which was SUBJ
jected to consideration came out of the
fray with but little riddling, although one
section was killed. principally through the
efforts of ardent friends of a restrictive
measure. Over a hundred speeches were
made, and the crowded Hobbies and gal
leries seemed to enjoy the eloquence huge
ly Seldom have there been such numbers
pr people present at legislative session,
many of the church folks coming to see
the issue debated. Chairs gave out early
in the day, and hundreds stood up in the
corridors, foyer and rear of the gallery.
At IL O'Clock the discussion began; all af-
ternoon and two hours of the night it con-
tinued, and when the result was summed
up three sections were found adopted with
unimportant amendments. 1t became more
apparent than ever that the bill, with all
Its essential features. will pass the House
when it comes to vote to-day. Mr.. Mich
olson held up his end OF the debate in
manner that won much favorable COM
ment, and he promptly and ably answered
the questions that were propounded to him
from time to time.
The first section of the bill compels appli-
cants for saloon license to specifically de-
scribe the room in which they intend to
sell. The phraseology was slightly changed
and the section adopted. The next one
evoked the most spirited talk, Mr.. Hollo-
way of Evansville, leading the opposition
with an amendment. The section was
adopted, however. 1t shuts out music and
devices of amusement of all character, and
requires the saloon to be separate and
apart from any other business. Sec
ton 3. which was also adopted,
Is one of the most important of the meas
ures Under 1t, the fact that persons are
permitted to go in or out of a. saloon dur
Ing unlawful hours, is to be prima facie
evidence of guilt, upon the trial of a cause
charging the proprietor of such room with
violating the law in the sale Of such liquors
upon such days or hours.
Section A. the one which was killed,
Furnishes people who are seen going in or
out of a saloon during prohibited hours.
supporters OF the bill came to the con-
clusion that the section would not stand
test in the Supreme Court. AS Mr.
Statesman stated, a man would refuse to
testify against a saloon keeper because he
you'd be giving evidence that would under
Section T. incriminate himself. Section s
OF Mr.. Holloway's and then further action
was postponed until this morning.
