vorce case of Alexander c. Broadstreet

from it's sensational features. The plaintiff
charged the defendant with inddelity last
fall and brought a statement from her to
that effect. After hearing the case the
judge granted a divorce to the plaintiff
The defendant Immediately thereafter filed
a petition in the case asking for a divorce
and set out an astonishing allegation that
she had been coerced and inundated into
making her first statement under threats
from her husband, and that the statement
was wholly false and untrue. The court
therefore reversed his ruling. The case was
heard by Judge McGregOr, who this morn
ing gave his decision, to the effect that the
plaintiff could, if he desired. change his
charge to one of cruel and inhuman treat
ment. This done by the plaintiff, and
he thereupon granted another divorce on
that ground. The defendant was awarded
alimony in the sum of $500 and was awarded
the custody of a daughter. The father was
given the care of q son. The plaintiff is

Presbyterian Committee to Meet Here
in November.

Presbyterian committee on synodical home
missions to meet in this city. The commit
tee will accordingly meet here on Nov. IL.
1t is composed of some of the most influ-
entail men in the Presbyterian Church. The
most important question coming before it is
the method of distributing the synodical
home mission funds. The present method,
which has been in vogue since the church
Was organized in America, is to send all
these collections to the Board of Home Mis-
sions in New York, and that body then APP
portions the funds among the States There
is now, however, very strong sentiment in
favor of the Indiana PLAN" which is that
each synod shall control the expenditure Of
the funds 1t has collected, to handle its own
missions, sending any surplus 1T may have
to New York; or, in case it has a deficiency
asking the Home Mission Board to help it
out. rhe committee is composed of the fol-
lowing ministers and ruling elders:

i'm the Jail at Richmond.

Special to the indianapolis Journal.
CAMBRIDGE CITY, Ind. Sept 24-Tne
fourth member OF the gang of thugs in this
city was arrested to-day and sent to the
Richmond Jail to join the others. The last
member is Thomas Knox, brother of the
negro William Knox, who was taken in the
day after the murderous assault on Agent
John E. Gray who has been an employe
for thirty years of the Panhandle Railroad
here. The sensation in connection with the
case was the arrest yesterday of William
Gray, a son of the footpad's victim. Gray,
who is thirty years old, and William Muir
ply, another thug, are said to nave
planned the assault and robbery on the
station agent, Gray knowing that his
father would have money ON his way home
from the station. All four are now in Rich
mond JAIL and two others are expected to
ioin the gang if the officers can get them.
This city has been at the mercy OF
gang of robbers for years VINO stood py
each other when one was caught ana neq
the offenders out of jail The current TAX
is that the city needs visitation similar 10
the one that strung up the Ripley county
gang last week. Young Gray mas never
been caught in any crime, but he has
trained with the gang for some time and
it was no surprise that he was arrested
The negro Knox is said to have made
confession and his story led to the arrest
of the others. Both Gray and Murphy
claim that Knox planned and carried out
the robbery by himself, but Knox claims
they were both in with him and had their
stations on guard the night of the assault
Knox. who took a train to Knightstown
that night returning the next morning,
says he went there under instructions to
hide the money. Knoxs brother arrested
to-day, is charged with helping
in the robbery Of drug store
the day of the assault Mr.. Gray. The
authorities are now hunting for another
member of the gang named Bell, who has
disappeared
For several years the county hereabOuts
has been the scene of numerous highway
robberieS. Several times farmers returning
home have been held up by masked men
and had their Valuables taken 1t is even
supposed that the Cambridge City gang has
been at the bottom of all these crimes and
the authorities are determined to land them
in prison.

MUNCIE, Ind, Sept. 24.-For the first
time since the crusade was begun on Mum
Gle saloon men by the committee of one
hundred prosecuting them for operating
saloons in the residence parts Of the city,
the defendants were victorious yesterday.
In the former trials dozen or more were
found guilty, and some driven out of bust
ness. In the trials of John +. Wesse,
William Webster and John Shea the mayor

will not stand, and saloon men are jubilant.
