BROTHER AGAINST BROTHER.
Policeman Milan on TriaI-Fined Ten
Days Pay.

The Board Of Public Safety had a long
and tedious session last night over the at
tempt to get at the bottom facts in regard
to charges, preferred against Patrolman
William Milan. There were two cases
against the policeman, one of which the
board dismissed after spending three hours
listening to testimony which was not rele-
want to the case and which would have
found a better sphere in a magistrates
court On the hearing of the other case
the board reprimanded the patrolman and
fined him ten days pay. The first case
was unusual in that Charles Milan. a
brother of the defendant, was one of the
leading prosecutors He and John Jones,
who live on property adjoining Milan >
home, on Minker street, joined in the COM
plant. They charged that Mrs. William
Milan and her son had poisoned chickens
belonging to them and to other neighbors.
Both the prosecution and the defense had
attorneys. With Messrs. Jones and Charles
Milan was Harmon Everett, and on the side
of the accused patrolman was Charles Wilt
sic, prosecuting attorney of Marion coun~
ty. The case was conducted with no re-
gard for rules of practice and there was
some interesting repartee between the at
torneys ana between witnesses and attor-
neys.
The charges in the first case were general,
but were directed chiefly against Milan as
a citizen He showed that there was a feel
ing between him and his brother OF long
standing and also between himself and
Jones. He also insisted that there was a
conspiracy between Jones and his brother
to get him removed from the force. The
board thought the case had no proper place
before it, and that there was nothing more
in it than a neighborhood quarrel, not to
be considered by the Board of Safety. 1t
dismissed the case.
The next case was charges brought by
Mrs Anna Elliott, who lives in Room L. of
the Ryan block She claimed that she was
grossly insulted by Milan She was stand
me on the corner of Capitol avenue and
Wabash street, talking to a Mr. Gray, who
did not appear at the trial, when the officer
advised her to leave there, as it was a bad
neighborhood Mrs. Elliott told the board
that the policeman ordered her to
move on, and she told him
he did not know to whom
he was talking, adding that if he wanted
to know who she was to go home with her.
Milan did follow her to her room and
there was enacted scene in which Mrs
Elliotts indignant tears were the principal
feature Milan said that he had received
many complaints about the character Of
Carpenters garden, which is close by where
time and again by citizens for not keeping
the alley clear. When he saw Mrs. Elliott
he did not know her character. but thong at
il she was an improper character she ought
to be driven away, and IL she was not she
ought to be advised of the neighborhood
which she was in. He testified that it was
with feeling of friendliness toward her
that he gave her the advice that she had
better not stand there. The board was in
clned to believe this, but thought he had
exceeded his authority in doing SC, and
fined him ten days pay.

SIX FoUR-BAsE HITS.
OF These Five Were Credited to the
HOLSTERS.

Indianapolis did much as was expected
with Grand Rapids yesterday, winning by
big scores. The hitting of the leaders was
about the only feature of interest. Home
runs were plenty, and both the visiting
pitchers were pounded literally. A young
ster named Bass, from Anderson, pitched
the last inning of the first game for Indian
apolis, and the run scored off him was
in the nature of gift. He appears to have
plenty of confidence, but one inning is in
sufficient to judge of his ability. The In
dianapolis pitchers took things rather east
ly, owing to the long lead their team had
all the time. There were only a few of the
fans on hand The sun was hot, and the
Bobs are not strong drawing card.
THE FIRST GAME.
The leaders lost no time going to the
front in the first game, Hogriever's base
on balls, Driscolps miss of Grays grounder
and McCarthy's hit giving them one in the
opening inning. Wood gave Mckinney a
grounder in the second, which he fumbled,
but Stewart forced Bob at second. Flynn
beat one out, but was also forced at sec
ond by Goar. Hogriever came along with
home run to right center, and Gray did
precisely the same thing, after which Nc
Farland went out from second to first
Camel caught the home-run fever in the
Bobs' half, and put the ball where Hog
gie' and Gray had sent it, Mckinney went
out from second to first, but Griffin got a
triple to right center and scored on McKib-
ben's out at first. Driscoll was an easy
victim.
With one out in the fourth Watkinss
men placed the game far out of reach.
Flynn beat out a little infeld hit and
Goar flew to Slagel. Hogriever and Gray
followed with singles, Mcfarland with a
home run straight to center and Mccarthy
with a similar hit, which was easily good
for the whole circuit. Motz went out from
short to first. Singles by Mckinney, Grit
fin and McKibben gave the Bobs one in
their half. Goar then struck out two men,
sent Slagel to first on balls and allowed
Twineham to hit a fly TO Hogriever.
In the eighth the leaders took notion to
do some more scoring Goar, Hogriever,
Gray and Mcfarland got hits, Mccarthy
a fly to right and Motz one to center, of
which Slagel made a great catch. This
yielded three runs. Wood went out from
second TO first. They kept 1t up in the
NINTH when Stewart and Flynn started
with hits, Goar following with a two-bag-
ger and Hogriever and Gray with singles.
Mcfarland flew to center but Mccarthy,
Motz and Wood lined out, safe ones, and
six more runs in all were added to the al
ready prosperous score Stewart forced
Wood at second and was himself caught
stealing that base. In the last half Bass
pitched, and Driscoll flew out to left, Glib
son hit to right for base and HogrieVer
let the ball get through him, the runner go
ing all the way around on the error--the
only one charged up to Indianapolis. Sla-
gel and Twineham flew out to center and
left, and the game was over. Score:
