FEELING AT DANNILLE.
People There Have Not Much Faith in
Baney's Confession.

baney'S OOnIeSSlOhs
Special to the indianapolis Journal.
DANVlLLE, Ind, Aug. 1.-THE interest
ing events of last night at Belleville
aroused only passing attention in this city,
the deep and genral opinion in Hinshaw's
guilt not being shaken. Frequently could
be heard the remark that it was desirable
that Baney could be believed, that Hinshaw
could be proved to be innocent, but so far
there has been no change of opinion. This
state of feeling does not result from any
unfriendliness toward Hinshaw, for he was
almost a total stranger here, being ac-
quainted with less than score of people
1t results from a summing up of the evil
dence, the bearing of witnesses and the
whole trend of matters. People are ready
to believe Hinshaw innocent, but they DIP
not do so yet. They realize that 1t would
be far better thing for this community if
he is innocent, better for the church and
better for society. To sustain this refusal
to believe the Baney story, they cite that
by no means can the burned pillow be *
planned If Baneys story is true. Ihey also
say that there was blood on Hinshaws
trousers, and. according to Baneys story,
he had no blood on him and did nothing for
blood to be him. Consequently the
blood could not have got on the trou-
other hand, they admit that Baney may he
deceiving as 10 his share of the response
bility in the ARRAY They also Say say t tnat
shaws as to be entirely Inconsistent Him
shaw never claimed there were more than
two persons present. Baney accounts for
three 1t is also pointed out that Baneys
story about the horse giving out while they
were driving to GreencastLe is manifestly
improbable in that, with the journey more
than half done, they turned about to COM
mence a longer journey because their horse
was weary. They could not have driven
to Greencastle and returned in one night
at best, and in this light they claim the
story is utterly without foundation. There
is no explanation. however, of how Baney
so quickly located the HinshaW y, house ana
studied closely the printed descriptions ct
the tragedy. 1t is also asked why Baney
should tell the story when. there was no
occasion for doing So On the other cdnT hand
iubiIant They saw the day of his release
is in sight and that Justice W Re m net@
ing can repay William f. Hinshaw for what
he has suffered They say, that facts yet
to come out will set all doubts in the minds
ef any person at rest that o when the he com
9onht in The minds of reasonable people
that Baneys story is true TO- the smallest
detail. His friends are talking little, but
thew are very happy.

The Mntnr supply.

We have received many complaints of
the scant supply Of water during the last
few days. We have not published them
because we have stated the excuse given
by the water authorities for the delay
in improving the supply. One Of the
communications, received yesterday. we
publish this morning, because it contains
a suggestion which we think the city
authorities should adopt. 1t is that an
ordinance be passed allowing only five
days for the repair of broken water
pipes.
There is no reason why the whole city
should be compelled to suffer in order
that people having broken pipes on their
premises may take their time in having
them repaired.
The water authorities say they cannot
get a greater pressure of water in the
pipes because so many Of the pipes arc
broken. The city should see to it that
the repairing of the pipes is carried on
more vigorously.
The lack of water threatens the people
with two dangers, the danger from fire
and the danger from sickness. Without
an adequate water supply a big fire could
not be checked, and fire in tan buildings
could not be reached by the fire engines.
without water upon the upper floors the
closets become foul, and foul closets mean
disease.
Let the city authorities take hold OF
this matter and infuse more vigor into
the work of repairing broken water pipes.
The people have suffered from an inade>
quate supply of water long enough. They
have been very patient thus far. but their
patience is about exhausted. They are
beginning to think there is indifference
and negligence somewhere, and they will
soon begin to hunt for somebody to blame
for the inconvenience from which they
are suffering and the dangers with which
they are threatened.

Pronunciation OF "pepot.Y

The drummer had been in Washington
for about an hour and a half, says the
Washington Star, and was already telling
stories as incredible as they were true
He had come from Boston and had stop
ped over in New York city Just long
enough to be able to say that he had
come from New York, a way some people
have who want to impress other people
of their kind.
"Of course" he was saying, as he turn
ed in on the third or fourth tale you
all know of Chauncey M. Depew and how
much greater he is in the big town than
any other man on earth or six feet below
its surface, and how he never says a
word about what they think, but just
laughs. Well when l landed in New
York, the other day. from Boston, l lit
in the New York Central station, up at
Forty-second street, and had TO wait a
while for friend of mine, and while there
| heard two ladies taking. One said it
was a very fine 'deepo,' and the other
said she mustn't call it 'deepo,' but dep
po, the regular old discussion, you know,
when they ought to say Station any
how
In the midst of their discussion man
who was their escort appeared with some
and discovered that the party was from
Chicago
we were just discussing said the
elder lady to the man, the question as
to whether these people called so hand
some building as this a 'deepo" or a
"deppo'
An. indeed?' he said, with laugh.
You are both wrong; they pronounce it

Il IS not easy to understand why Mai.
Mckinley offered the position Of secretary
of war TO Gen. Alger. lie must nave
known that the nomination Of Gen. Alger
TO that position would be bitterly opposed.
Already steps are being taken to prevent
his confirmation.
Gen. Alger has a war record which is
not creditable to him. When he was col
onel of tne Fifth Michigan cavalry, he
absented himself frequently from his post
OF duty without leave, and finally absented
himself after leave Of absence had been
refused him. For his conduct IN this mat
ter his commanding officer recommended
that he be dismissed from the service, and
that recommendation was approved by
Gen. Sheridan. Col. Alger sent his res
ignation TO the President, his resignation
reaching the President at about the same
time that the recommendation for his dis
missal reached him. The President ac-
cepted his resignation.
1t is urged that man with such a mill
itary record ought not to be put at the
head of the war office. II is understood
that military men think it would not be
advisable to have him in that position, and
it is asserted that members Of the mill
tary committee of the Senate are prepar-
ing to Try TO defeat his nomination If the
President should persist in sending his
name TO the Senate.
II does seem as the placing at the head
of the war Office man whose dismissal
from the army was recommended would
not have a good effect upon the army. If
it could be shown that the recommended
ton was not justified by the facts there
would be less opposition TO Gen. Alger,
but it is fair to assume that no such thing
can be shown. If it could steps would
have been taken long ago by Gen. Alger to
set himself right in the war department
records.
Maj. Mckinley is likely to hear a great
| deal of unfavorable comment on the Alger
appointment and from the facts in sight
he cannot satisfactorily explain why he
offered Gen. Alger a place in his cabinet.
