BATTLE AT TRES ARBALES.
Leaders Driven to the Frontier, and

-GeneraI Foreign News.

WASHINGTON, May H.-Recent mail ad-
vices from Uruguay received here state
that the revolution has been checked after
a bloody battle at Tres Arbales, in which
a large number of the revolutionists were
killed and their leaders driven to the from
tier. AT the same time the government has
seen fit to allay public discomfort by taking
into the ministry several leaders, who
heretofore have been regarded as leaders in
the seditious movement. The minister of
war, General Diaz, gave way for this pur-
pose to General Perez, who was acting pres
ident of the committee officially denounced
as seditious and revolutionary This is ac-
cepted as the first step towards making
terms will the ~revolutionists, although a
strict censorship of the press prevents any
construction being placed on the course of
the government. The lighting has been
bloody, the deaths reaching into the hun
dreds. The president has issued a procla-
nation cOngratulating General Munez on
his last success in dispensing the revolution
lists, and a dress sword is to be presented
to him. The government forces have been
reinforced by modifying the national guard,
made up of 5000 men, and large consign-
ments OF arms and ordnance have been re-
ceived from Belgium.

Special to the indianapolis Journal.
NOBLESVILLE, Ind, May 14.-The twen-
ty-second annual commencement of the No
blesville High School took place at Wild's
Opera House last night. There were twenty
graduates, as follows: Mark p. Boone,
Mary Clark, Roy B. Castor, Emma Demoss,

and Odessa Zeis.
The programme was of a musical and lit
erary character. The MendelsSohn Quartet,
of Cincinnati, furnished the music and three
members of the graduating class had adj
dresses. The diplomas were delivered by
William II. Craig, treasurer of the School
Board. Some time ago Mr.. Craig sent out
to the different cities of the State over one
hundred circular letters asking a number
of questions pertaining to the schools of
Indiana. In tabulating the answers thereto
he found out that Noblesvillle is in the
front rank in many important features of
school work. In his address last night he
said that NoblesVillle had the largest en-
enumeration. of any city in the State, be-
ing IS per cent. during the last year. He
further showed that some cities in the State
run as low as so per cent. and the average
enrolment, as compared to the enumera-
ton the State over was 81 per cent. He
also claimed that Noblesville had more pu-
pills in high school than any city in the
mencement festivities close tonight with
the alumni meeting.

Special to the Indianapolis Journal.

EVANSVILLE, Ind. May 4.-This has
been a day of intense excitement here on
account Of the developments in the Buente
murder case. 1t is now believed the negro
arrested at Mount Vernon is innocent of the
murder of the little girl. The arrest of a
negro tracked to Morganfield, KY, caused
Sheriff Covert to leave for there on a spe-
cial train. He took the negro arrested at
Mount Vernon with him because of threats
of mob violence here and left him there.
1t is believed the negro arrested in Ken
lucky IS the right man. To-day the funeral
of the murdered girl took place in this
city. Hundreds of people attended. Tonight
a moi of three thousand made an attack
on the county Jail to lynch the prisoner.
The gate leading to the Jail yard was brok-
en- down and the crowd began to storm
the Jail. The sheriff made a speech inform
ing the crowd that the prisoner had been
removed. This did not pacify the mob,
which made a rush toward the jail, but
officers fully armed stayed the wild as
sault. Every police officer in the city is
on duty tonight around the jail.
