NEW USE FOR ELECTRICITY.
Carriages and Harness at a
Very Small Cost.


WASHINGTON, Jan. 11.-As common as
is the use of electric light in the United
States Americans have as yet neglected
to avail themselves of one application
which has been extensively employed in
Europe, and especially in France, amely,
Its use for illumination of carriages and
other public conveyances. An interesting
report on this subject has been submitted
to the Department of State by United
states Consul Chancellor. at Havre. He
shows that within the last five years cleo
trically-lighted private carriages nave been
extensively used by the aff1uent classes in
Europe. The Prime Of Wales was the
first to adopt the idea in London, and the
German Emperor has had the court car
riages lighted by electricity, not only to
outside lanterns, but also the interior be-
ing Illuminated by means of a series of ac-
cumulators carried under the boot, and
an over the harness are placed what the
call "gluhlampe,'' small colored
lights, which glow like ~f1reflies and conquer
the thickest fogs; The accumulation for a
carriage is carried in a box only eight
inches long by seven high and four wide.
IT furnishes a good seven-and-a-half can
die power for from one to two months. 1t
costs from fifty cents to one dollar to re-
new the charge, less than the cost os
smoky, unreliable and ill-smelling oil
lamps. The Consul says that in a few
years all public conveyances will be thus
lighted, as a ffty-cent plant is sufficient
for each. He gives detailed descriptions
Oh the various appurtenanceS necessary.

BisseIl lis Opposed to immortality and

Bissell Is Opposed to immortality and
the Lagrange Postmaster Must Go.
Special to the Indianapolis Journal.
WASHINGTON, Jan. lit is stated
at the Postofice Department that the pa
perS in the case of the postmaster at La
grange, Ind, charged with immoral con-
duct, have not yet reached the department.
Several of the officials of the department,
however. are familiar with the details of
the story recently printed in the Journal,
and unhesitatingly state that IL the
charges are proven the punishment for the
dndiscretion of the Lagrange postmaster
will be summary dismissal. Several cases
nearly similar to this case have come be-
fore the department since Mr.. Bissell took
the helm, but they have been disposed of
in each case without publicity.
Nearly half a dozen fourth-class post
masters lave been dismissed during this
administration for proven immoral con-
duct and acts similar to that of the La
grange postmaster committed in the post
office buildings. There have been at least
three cases where presidential postmasters
have been involved in scandals of this
sort, and in each case they nave been pun
ished with almost instant dismissal. The
Postmaster-general is a stickler for purity
of morals and a generally good moral char
acter in his appOintees, and If these are
found to be lacking after the appointment
he always corrects his errors with a
promptness that is deadly.

SMALLPOX AT ROBY
SEVEN CASES DISCOVERED \ THE
TRACK TO DE GUARANTEED.
Indianapolis Men in a New Gas Conn
psny at Northumberland offered
for the BeIIeviIIe Murderers.

CHICAGO, Jan. 11.-Aid from an unex-
peeted source has come to the Indiana au-
thorities, who have for months been rack
ing their brains as to the best method of
closing and keeping closed, the race track
at Roby, Ind. An epidemic of smallpox
has broken out, and there is a wild
s~cranbling among the touts. stablemen
and jockeys to reach a more healthful To-
cality. The authorities of Illinois have,
for some time, been keeping close watch on
the track to prevent too many of the hang
ers-on of the place from invading Chicago.
Every jockey or stableman who cannot
show an approximation to a clean bill of
health is told that Chicago has troubles
enough of its own without importing them
from the Roby race track. When the man
shows symptoms of smallpox he is prompt
ly taken to the pest house.
Thursday John B. Sweeney. of Chicago,
q horse owner who has been visiting the
track every day and associating with the
jockeys and stablenlen, was sent to the
pest house, suffering with an aggravated
case of smallpox. The same day Arthur
slept in the stables, wandered into South
Chicago, and We're sent to the pest house
on the jump. When these three cases were
brought in a census was taken, and 1t was
found that seven men from the Roby
track. all with smallpox in its worst form.
nad peen brought to the pest mouse WITHIN
three days. att
The Chicago authorities are powerless to
move against the plague spot, as it IS un-
der the jurisdiction of the Indiana Board
of Health. That body promptly received
notice of the prevalence of the disease and
of the danger which Threatened Chicago
from its continued existence. 1t is prob
able that a corps of physicians from the
Indiana board will be sent to the track
to v~accinate everybody on the place. to
thoroughly fumigate the stables and other
buildings of the race track and to make
every effort to stamp out the disease
which seems to nave taken a strong hold
and is rapidly spreading. The track is
closed at present, but it is not likely that
the State medical authorities will allow it
to reopen, even if the management wishes
to do SO.
When the Statehouse in this city closed
yesterday evening there had been no in
formation in regard to smallpox received.
Governor Matthews said, at IL o'clock last
night, he had no official knowledge of it.
but that he had heard it mentioned that
smallpox had broken out at Roby, but.
as he had no official Information, he had
not considered the subject seriously.

THE HAWAIIAN CABLE.
Representative Hit Takes Issue with
President Cleveland.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 1.-THE mi
dalton made by President Cleveland that
the United States give it's consent to the
construction OF a cable to Hawaii by Great
Britain does not find favor among the Re-
publ.cans of the House. Representative
