TWO WEEKS In BED.
The Probable Punishment of This
Runaway Boy.

A youngster giving his name John
Adams aged twelve. was brought to the
police station about 10 o'clock last night.
He wore n blue coat and brass buttons
and said he had run away from the Sol
diers' Orphans Home. at Knightstown last
Monday and had been in the city since
Tuesday seeing the sights. He made men
ton of the monument as a big concern.
and said he would like to own IT. When
found his attention was conferred in the
Salvation Army. which was holding a
street meeting. The person who found nim
an overgrown boy and very dirty. is "a
hoStler here, but at one time was also an
inmate OF the home at Knightstown. He
recognized young Adams. and after hearing
his story decided to take him TO the police
station and have him returned TO Knights
town. Adams and his rescuer both said
that the punishment awaiting the runaw way
on his return would be being required TO
lay in bed two weeks. The big fellow said
ne had to lay in bed once at the home for a
similar offense. and found IL TO be the most
tiresome punishment he knew of. notwith-
standing his meals were regularly brought
TO him. Adams forget the punishment in
store for him as he became interested in
the inspection OF the police station Office
and the officers. and sat wrapped in silent
amaZement until his head dropped his
mouth flew open and he was asleep.

MOUNT HAS NOT CALLED

Governor-elect Mount returned to his
home at ShannondaIe yesterday morning.
While he was here. so far as known. he re-
ceived congratulations from Governor
Matthews. either in person or by note. and.
on the other hand. he did not offer any
condolences to Governor Matthews Gov
ernor Mount is probably not conscious that
he has missed anything in this direction,
but Governor Matthews is.

ernor. while discussing the first visit

his election. that Mr.. Mount was i'm the

him i'm this Office. Four years ago my pre-
decessor did not come over TO the Secre-
tary of States office to congratulate me,
but three or four days after election
came down here to offer my condolences"
Now there is nothing in the Constitution
or laws of Indiana on this subject, nor has
there been any rule of etiquette upon this
point laid down. Thus while Mr.. Mount
probably had very natural curiosity to
view the surroundings in which he is des-
tined to spend four years of his official
life. he was likewise doubtless deferred
from entering the Governors parlors by a
natural delicacy he would have about APP
pearing. to seek CONGRATULATIONS from a
fallen foe. When Governor Mount comes

say that all necessary ceremonies Will be

TW0-CENT-A MILE RATE

The Decision I'm the Monon Suit

The more conservative Of the passenger
men majority of the merchants and a
large per cent. of the commercial travellers
regret that the general passenger agents
at their meeting in Chicago Thursday voted
down the proposition TO issue five-thousand-
mile tickets good over every road In the

mile book. there is reason to believe that
they have thoroughly canvassed the situ-
alton and think IL the best thing to do. The
general impression is that the refusal to
issue such q ticket means the adoption by
legislative enactment OF a two-cent-a-mile
rate. as the commercial men. the mer-
chants and several OF the general passen-
ger agents of the strong lines will favor
such "a rate; certainly some of the passen-

EASTERN INSANE HOSPITAL.


The report Of the board of control and
medical superintendent of the Eastern Hos
pital for the Insane was presented to the
Governor yesterday. The report of the
board, preceding the detailed statement of
the superintendent. is a model of clearness
and conciseness. The report shows that the
institution was maintained entirely within
the appropriation During the first year
covered by the biennial report it was work
ing under the appropriation of $4,000 a
year, and, with an average of ABS patients.
the maintenance cost $e497S.96. During the
second year it was working under the APP
preparation of $4,000 given by the Legis-
Iature OF 1898, and with an average or 465
patients, the maintenance cost but $S9,-

state of affairs that is not likely TO con-

of $40, 600 a year in the maintenance fund.
The statistics of the report show that
during the year of lSyi-95 $4,000 was ex-
pended in construction and during the last
year $24 94i57 was spent. This was from
the specific appropriation of $4,000 made
by the last Legislature. This money WIS

East-Bound EmiGrant Business.

The Western roads have determined to
take action regarding east-bound trans
atlantic traffic similar to that by which
they now handle the west-bound emigrant
business. They are now working on an
agreement with the Atlantic steamship
companies. Cnder the. on west
bound traffic the Western roads agree to
pay commissions on all traffic turned over
to them by the steamship companies. They
see no reason why the same rule should
not apply to east-bound business as well.
They therefore propose to organize in the
West a clearing house for the handling of
this east-bound business similar to that
now maintained in New York for the hand
ling OF the west-bound traffic. There is
quite large amount of this business par
ticularly of the second class. every year at
about the holiday season. 1t consists of
the people who are going back TO spend
the holidays with relatives i'm Europe and
the Western roads have up to now never
received a cent of commission on the large
amount of the traffic they have every year
turned over to the steamship companies.

TRADE RELATIONS WITH CANADA.
Gossip AS To What AIr. Laurier Proposes
To DOs

Washington, July There is some
speculation here as to the extent to which
the Liberal party in Canada will go, in
d revision of tariff duties, as far as the
United States is concerned. 1t has been
suggested that the Liberals will en-
deavor to effect reoipl ocity treaty with
the United States similar In Gus
tom provisions to that ofs1654. That
treaty was abrogated 12 years later at
the request of the United States. 1t wa
argued thatEit provided no market fo1
our manufactured goods, but related
wholly to a reciprocal exchange of raw
products, principally those belonging to
agricultural schedules. 1t is not believed
for this reason that such treaty would
be acceptable to the United States. 1t is
stated that Canadians who advocate en-
larged trade with the United States
will object to revision of the tariff
laws. A reciprocity treaty would be
satisfactory to Great Britain, and nc
objection would be made by the Lon
don government as long as the Canadi-
ans themselves desired it. such steps
as the Canadian liberals may take in
this direction will be delayed until after
the 4th of next March, SO that the con-
illusions reached will be with the patty
in the United States, which will renal n

morning, Gen. W. L. Cabell of Texas,
speaking to resolution expressing to
the city of Chicago, the most grateful
Acknowledgement of the delegates for the
erection of monument to their dead
comrades, made an address that aroused
great enthusiasm. Gen. Cabell recognized
the fact that the war was ended, and
was glad to see that the bitter feeling
was dying out but for one. he would not
take lump of gold as large as Texas,
containing diamond as big as Arkansas
for the part he took in the war. Gen.
Douglass spoke eloqusntly to the resolu-
tion which was adopted by rising vote
unanim oasly. This gave rise to great
cheering.
Next on the programme was the
historical address of DR.. Jabez l. Me-
Curry, ex-minister to Spain. He dis
cussed slavery nullifcation, secession,
and the war in detail in the most elo-
quent manner, ana was most attentively
listened to, and many of the strong
points he made in viHdication of the
