Special Dispatch 10 the Post-Tntelligencer.
ROSLYN. Wash. Oct. 15.-The output Of
the Northern Pacific coal mines for the
month OF September was a record breaker,
being nearly 5000 long tons. The output
would have been 5000 tons but for a
shortage of cars and an unavoidable
breakdown. Since General Manager b. F.
Bush has taken charge Of the Northern
Pacific coal mines al Roslyn they have en-
toyed an unparalleled increase in prosper
ity, and the mines are now running six
days each week with an increasing num-
Der OF men working.

TAMMANY BROUGHT Low OUT.
j. b. Conner Says the Braves Aided in
Getting Up Petitions.

State StatisticIan John B. Conner re-
turned Monday night from the East, and
was in his Office at the Statehouse yester-
day. He spent several days in New York
and became greatly interested in the local
campaign there, the first for the election
of officers for Greater New York. He has
the greatest contempt for Seth Low as a
politician and a candidate for mayor,
though he considers him an estimable gen.
tleman as a citizen.
THE invitation he received from $4,000
voters to become candidate has been ex-
ploded," said Mr. Conner. You know
there was a petition signed by that number
of voters urging Mr.. Low to allow his
name to be used, and Mr.. Low gracefully
declared that he, could not refuse to heark-
en- to such a demand. Recently detectives
have been at work on this matter, and they
have learned how this petition was secured.
Hundreds of men were employed on COM
mission to get signatures. They went eV-
erywhere and insisted upon people signing.
Everybody knows how easy it is to get
signers to any sort of a petition. Thou
sands may have signed it without expecting
to support the man. They considered that
no harm could be done by his candidacy,
and may have signed the petition 10 ae-
commodate the man presenting II, or 10
get rid of his persistent request that they
sign il. One man stood at the New York
approach to Brooklyn bridge and secured
thousands Of names in a single day..
but probably the greatest number OF
signers came from the ranks OF the ram
n any followers The word went out from
Tammany: Sign the Low petition, and
the Tammany followers t1ocked to the mold
ers of the petitions. To this extent the
Low movement is a Tammany scheme to
split the Republican vote.
ION the other nand, the George move.
ment will split the Democratic vote, but
every day lessons the George strength.
Tammany has drawn the party line
strongly, and that powerful machine is
beating the George supporters back into
line rapidly. 1t looks now as If Low would
run third in the race, with Henry George
fourth and Tracy or Van Wyck first. The
race for first place is certainly between
these two men, but it is hard under the
conditions to more than guess which Will
be successful"

A BREWERY SAFE BLOWN
THE AFFAIR HAS BEEN KEPT QUIET
SINCE LAST SUNDAY.
Madison Brewing Company Loses but
$35 by the OperatiOn-POIice Think
They Have u CIeyv.

The police are working on a safe-blow!ng
affair which occurred some time Saturday
night An attempt has been made to keep
the matter quiet, as it was believed that
in this way a clew which was discovered
might be more successfully followed. Moth
ing definite has resulted from the clew yet.
Sunday morning, when the bookkeeper of
the local branch of the Madison Brewing
Company opened the office, he discovered
that the safe had been blown open during
the night. 1t contained only about $35 in
cash, and this is all the thieves took. There
were some valuable papers and beer stamps,
but they were not disturbed. The police
were notified at once ana have been work
ing on the case ever since.
The work is evidently that of men who
have had some experience in that line of
crime. The safe was bored and blown open
with powder. To make sure Of their work
the burglars had broken into Belt Railroad
Toulouse and taken a crowbar and heavy
spike hammer. 1t was evidently the inten-
ton of the thieves to use these in case the
explosion did not throw the door entirely
open. There was no need, however, of these
tools, as the force of the explosion was ter
rife and tore the door off the safe and
wrecked it completely
The Madison Brewing Company's local de-
pot and Office is at present on New YORK
street, east of the Belt road, and just out
side the city limits. When the 81 900 brew
ers' license went into effect this company
moved to West Indianapolis to escape the
tax, and when that suburb became part
of the city another move was made to the
present site. The place is in a sparsely-
populated district, an ideal spot for the work
of safe blowers. There are no houses near
by and no one stays at the place over night
1t thus happened that the explosion was
not heard and the robbery was not known
until the Office was opened Sunday morn
ing.
The police claim to have a clew to the
perpetrators of the robbery, and believe they
will be able to arrest them.

STATE PRINTING CONTRACT.
Bids to BE Received To-Day--stacks of
Old Books.

The State Printing Board viii be in ses-
sion this morning from II to II O'clock to re-
ceive bids for the years printing. The bids
will be received in two parts. Under one
head will be the bids for general printing
binding and stationery, and under the 9TH
er viii come the. bids for printing the SUI
preme and Appellate Court reports. From
the interest taken in the matter Secretary
Carter thinks the competition will be lively.
Bids will be opened at II o'clock.
Governor Mount is determined that the
cost to the State of printing shall be cut
down If possible. Yesterday he made an
exploration of the basement of the State
house and found stacked away there thou
sands of volumes of books of a useless ma
ture. which are printed and paid for by
the State. He found the entire issue of the
report Of the state superintendent of public
instruction of 1894, and thousands of copies
of the Documentary Journal of Indiana"
This latter book is considered absolutely
useless, and there is no demand for it. 1t
comprises part of the reports of state Off
GERS and institutions which are printed sep
arately, months before the documentary
journal appears. 1t is the intention of the
Governor TO see If some of this work cannot
be eliminated from the contract.

HUGE CLOUDS OF SMOKE
INSPECTOR BUNTING NOT OFFICIAL
LY NOTIFIED OF THEIR EXISTENCE.
Therefore the Ordinance Is Not En-
fOrced-Mahoney becomes Presi-
dent of Common Council.

Building Inspector Bunting is not disposed
to make any effort to enforce the ordinance
passed nine months ago to abate the smoke
nuisance. This ordinance, introduced in
Council Dec. 21, 1886, by Councilman Rauch,
was passed by the Council and approved
by the mayor some time after AT first the
members of the Council were disposed to
think that the ordinance could not be en-
forced against railroads. and there was a
proposition TO exclude its application to
them within certain limit. Then there was
a question as to whether the owners of
buildings could secure adequate smoke con-
sumers. 1t was found that anti-smoke
ordinance was being successfully enforced
in Kansas City, another in Chicago and 9TH
ers in other places. The councilmen got
around conflict with the railroads by pro-
viding in the ordinance that the emission
of dense smoke from the chimney or smoke
stack ''of any building, exclusive OF private
residences" shall be deemed to be public
nuisance. Section of the ordinance pro-
vides:
THE owner or owners, lessee or occupant
of any building who shall permit or allow
dense smoke to issue or to be emitted from
the SmOkeStack or chimney OF any DullQlng
within the corporate limits shall be held
guilty Of creating nuisance, ana the build
ing Inspector of the city of Indianapolis
upon information filed with him, shall serve
upon any sueh owner owners lessee or oc-
cupant, notice TO abate said nuisance Win
in ten days time after the service or such
notice, and upon the failure TO so abate
said nuisance within SAID time, upon am
davit being filed by the building Inspector
before the police judge of the city or In
dianapOlis, said owner, owners, lessee or oc-
cupant shall be deemed and held guilty or
wllfully creating a nuisance, ana SnaH TOT
every such offense be fined in any sum not
less than 81 nor more than $25, and each
days continuance of such nuisance AFTER
the expiration of said ten days notice shall
be considered separate offense."
Building Inspector Bunting.s excuse Tor
the reimbursement of the ordinance is that
no "informations' have been filed In his
office.
1.-The papers have been full of the sub
ject," was suggested to him.
'But people who are said to De annoyed
by ii have made no complaints to me- The
ordinance requires me to act when COM
plants are made"
If there were any disposition on the part
of the administration TO enforce the ordl-
nance every smokestack in the center OF
the city that is pouring out black volumes
of smoke and filling the air with SCOT, pc
griming the soldiers monument ana the
handsome new buildings, could be Squelched
inside of two weeks. 1t would be very
easy matter for some of the numerous IN
spectors or police officers to call the build
ing inspectors attention to the fact that
the air down town is filled with the out
pouring Of smoke from business buildings.

Yesterday morning some men met Patrol
man Todd at the fire engine house at Wash
ington street and Miley avenue and told
him that a man was working the shell
game near the Belt and Vandalia crossing
He went over there in time to see the fellow
starting away in a buggy. The buggy was
coming toward him, and the shell worker
did not have time to turn around In the
narrow road and drive the other way. The
stranger jumped from the buggy, and ran,
but was captured. He had just fieeced sew
eral persons. Among them was Richard
Patterson. young colored man. He had
been working for ten years on the farm
of Thomas Harmon. southwest Of the city,
and had saved SO and had a gold watch
worth about that amount. He told the Do-
nceman that he met the man and the lat
ter offeTssd TO bet that he could not tel
which shSll the little ball was nder, after
letting him see the bali lying exposed under
ono of them. Patterson thought this was
like finding money, and he put up his
