GOVERNOR MAY ACT
SAYS HE Is TIRED OF POsTPONIN6
REGENCY APPOINTMENTS.
Members of the Board Must Get To
sether Pretty soon-Another
Meeting Goes Over.

Governor Matthews, Auditor of State
Daily and Treasurer of State Scholz met
yesterday morning on the business of the
monument, but Secretary of State Owen
did not appear and the business of the
of State Daily had to go to Lebanon in
the afternoon to attend a wedding, and to-
day Mr.. Owen leaves to go to his wife,
who is ill, and will not return until Satur-
day afternoon. On Sunday Mr.. Scholz has
to go to New York on business connected
with the State, so that the prospect of an
other meeting of the commission is not
fattering for a week or ten days. Gov.
Matthews, in speaking of the situation,
said, yesterday:
81 am ready to act with the board, but
if the other members do not make up their
minds TO act pretty soon / will take the
matter in my own hands and appoint the
commission. Then the Attorney-general,
who is in the business of prosecuting ac-
tions of custer, can bring a similar action
in this case"
MI. owen said he was not present be-
cause his wife. who is not in good health,
was leaving town on a train departing at
the hour of the meeting.
Attorney-general ketcham yesterday re-
ceived a copy of the answer to, the COM
plant filed in the LaPorte Circuit Court
facto warden eofAtHe Prison North. The
answer is purely formal, setting up the
alleged regular. form of the appointment
of the pretended board of directors by the
Governor, and alleging that the existence
and acts of the board of appointing COM
missioners and the board of directors is il
legal and unconstitutional. The Attorney
general at once. prepared a reply to the
answer.

ATTEMPT TO KILL HORACE WOOD.
Tally, While Drank, Hurls
n Brick at the Lfveryman.

Horace Wood, the ~liveryman, last night
came near losing his life at the hands of
a man who imagines he has q grievance.
Mr.. Wood was sitting in his Office on Mon
ument Place with several friends, when
a man suddenly appeared at the door and
before any one observed what he intended
to do, he hurled a brick bat at Mr.. Woods
head, only missing the mark by a few
inches. The missile struck the rear door
with such force that a large piece of wood
was broken off. The man then ran to Mar
ket street and was pursued by several OF
the men in the office. He ran east ON Mar
ket to the first alley and turned south.
Here the pursuers hesitated. as they did
not care to risk their lives in the dark.
Patrolmen Asche and Mathey were soon
on the scene. and running down the alley,
was not the person wanted. but was taken
to the livery stable, where he was posi-
lively identified. He still denied the charge
for a few minutes, then gave way to the
vilest abuse of MIR. Wood. charging him
Will having robbed him of his wife and
baby and breaking up his home. He was
the name OF Richard Tally, and was
slated with assault and battery with intent
TO kill. Tally was somewhat under the in
1t will be remembered that when Horace
Wood first opened his riding school last
fall, Tally's wife was employed as a wait
ing maid, and Tally being or a jealous dis
position, followed his Wife to the school
one day and claimed that he found her and
Mr.. Wood In a room together. He bat
tered in the door and was arrested for
trespass. In the trial it was clearly proven
that Mr.. Wood was not near the building
at the time, and Tally was given a sem
wife since then. applied for "a divorce and IL
was granted. He acknowledged at the po-
tempted to kill Mr.. Wooo. and his only re-
greet was that he had not succeeded.
