FAIRyIEW THE BEST SITE.


Governor Matthews, Major Defrees and
number of the officers of the Indiana Ma
tional Guard, went to Broad Ripple yester-
day to view the site offered for holding the
annual State encampment. The Governor
was very much impressed with the location,
but 1t was not thought feasible on account
of there being no suitable target range. A
beautiful place for the camp and drill
ground was found, but from that to a target
range where shooting could be done with
safety is two miles, which, he thought. too
much for the militiamen to march for prac-
tice. The Governor thinks it would take too
much of the otherwise limited time In
marching and not leave enough for other
exercise.
To-day the Governor will view the site at
Fairview Park. This place Is said to be suit
and the only objection offered by the Gov
general. He thinks the encampment will
not do the same amount of good if held
where. there is a constant crowd of visitors
and sightseers. However, he said last night
that although such is his feeling in the
matter, he did not now see that he could
do better than select Fairview Park.
Last week he visited Millersville and found
there a site that would suit him better than
any other II place could be found TO pitch
the tents. He found that there was no grove
near enough the drill and practice ground
He will decide the matter the early part of
next week.

THE SLAYER CAUGHT
HENRY JONES. WHO KILLED HARRY
WILLIAMS, NOW UNDER ARREST.
New Albany Police Take Him from
Freight Train-He Makes
Confession.

Henry Jones, alias Harry Taylor who
shot and killed Harry Williams in Great
houses saloon, on Indiana avenue last
Monday night, was arrested yesterday
morning at New Albany. Detective Thorn
ton went after the murderer yesterday
afternoon, and will arrive here at I o'clock
this morning. \ telegram received from the
detective last night says that Jones has
confessed the crime
The murderer was captured by the New
Albany police just after he had alighted
from New Albany freight train. about
2 O'Clock yesterday morning. The informa-
ton that led to the arrest came from a
colored man named Ross. who left this
city with Jones the night of the shooting
Two days ago Ross returned and told the
police that he left Jones at Monon. Thurs
day night the route Jones would likely
take from Monon was figured out by Su-
perintendent Powell and his detectives
and kilograms were sent TO several towns in
the southern part of the State. The New
Albany police were on the lookout and
recognized the murderer from the accurate
description given of him.
While there is no doubt in the mind of
the police superintendent that Jones is the
man who killed Williams, the is sur
rounded with considerable mystery. Two
or three colored men are being held at the
station house as suspects. One of them
is William Carrico, whose reputation is
not entirely spotless. He was arrested

day before the arrest Ed Henderson, col

Walker and made. affidavit charging Car

Williams attempted TO put his hand in his
pocket and Carrico shot him. The affi-
davit is being detained, although the story
is not believed. Carrico does not answer
the descriptions given by those who assert
they the slayer of Williams, and Ed

trouble was going on declares that Car
rico is not the man who did the shooting

MARION COUNTY'S SMALL SHARE.
Under an Old Law Other Counties Get
More Copies of the Statutes.

The last of the acts OF the Legislature

portions Only forty-four receipts had been
received up till the close of the office last
night. although they were coming in quite

the afternoon. 1T may be possible for the
Governor to issue his proclamation by next
Tuesday, although that seems a little
doubtful now. F'orty-eight counties are yet
to be heard from.
The division OF the acts Is not made on
a fair and equitable basis at the present
time. The distribution is made on an old
