THE UNIVERSITY CLUB.
General Harrison Presides-His Sug
gestiOns as to Features.

During his absence from the city this
summer General Harrison was elected pres
ident of the University Club. Last night
he presided at meeting of the council of
the club, and afterwards addressed the club
briefly. He said he had received a letter
inviting him TO become a member. In the
first place he said, he did not believe there
any necessity for the formation of adj
ditienal literary clubs in Indianapolis, as
the field is already pretty fully covered.
If it were the intention, however, to form
social club, with permanent headquarters,
where a man might introduce a friend for
social intercourse, he would look upon the
idea with favor. He urged that if club is
to be formed it should have suitable and
permanent headquarters. General Harri-
son suggested that this was an important
subject TO consider.
Albert Baker moved that in accordance
with General Harrisons suggestion, the
committee on incorporation be directed TO
or building clubhouse, with instruction to
report plan at the next meeting of the
club. w. p. Fishback had moved that a
special committee be appointed for this pur-
pose. Mr.. Bakers motion was a substitute,
and it was adopted. G. e. Bicknel, chair
man of the committee on membership, re,
been favorably passed on. In order TO
start with as large a membership as pos
SlDle, Mr. Baker moved IndI the time LOT
receiving charter members be extended until
Dec l. This motion, also, prevailed.
Along the line of General Harrison'S sug
gestion that the club be made more of a So
cial than literary character, Evans Woollen
suggested that the qualifications for mem
bership ought to be broadened somewhat.
Under the constitution as it now stands ac-
tive membership is limited to graduates of
colleges and universities. Men who have
taken a two years course are eligible as
associate members. Mr.. Woollen suggested
it might be well to enlarge the scope of the
club somewhat. This suggestion provoked
a long discussion. Mr.. Baker believed,
with Rev. Dr. Christensen, that there is
large class of men in indianapolis who
would add much strength to the club who
are not graduates-for instance, men who
had graduated from reputable professional
schools. The discussion ended without any
change being made in this respect.
Instead of Incorporating under the Volun-
tary association laws, w. z. Fishback said
that if it is the intention to own clubhouse
it would be necessary to incorporate
under some other law, as voluntary asso-
Citations cannot hold property. There IS a
proposition to make a stock concern or the
club. All these questions will be settled at
a meeting TO be held two weeks from last
night at the Commercial Club building,
where the University Club met last night.

MEET NOT YET ASSURED
PRESIDENT or l.. A. w. SAYS INDIANA
HAS THINGS YET TO DO.
Its Membership Must BE Increased
Street-Car Company Will Com
struct the Cycle Track.

President Isaac B. Potter, of the League
of American Wheelmen, was in the city
yesterday He has been travelling for sew
eral weeks in the interest of the League,
and came this way to take a look al the
city which is making so strong a bid for
the national meet of 1888. While in Chicago
Mr.. Potter heard that Omaha had with
drawn from the contest. and in an inter-
view there said that the meet was prac-
tically conceded to Indianapolis.
But it is always possible for it to go
elsewhere" he said yesterday, land it is
not to be said that the meet is assured to
this city While at Philadelphia in August
the indianapolis delegation promised to
double the membership in the Indiana di-
vision. This has not been done, and / re-
gard il as very important that the pledge
be fulfilled. There are many centrally To-
Gated cities which have larger league mem
bership than this city If one of them
should become a candidate against your
city the league strength would have to DO
considered in making the selection"
Mr.. Potter said he was well pleased with
the city as the place for the meet and
seemed to favor its selection. When he re-
turns to New York there will be meeting
of the executive committee, and it will
then be decided whether the selection OF
the next national meet city shall be made
by a mail vote of the national delegates
or by the vote in the assembly at st. Louis
in February. If mail vote is taken all
will be settled by Jan. l.. Mr.. Potter was
urged TO use his endeavor to have the vote
by mail in order to give this city, should
it get the meet, as much time as possible
to prepare for the entertainment of the
thousands of wheelmen who will come here
President Potter suggested to Chief Con-
sui Sherwood and others that the national
organization would join with the city Secur-
ing the meet to help bring to the meet the
European champions The championship
races of Europe are run off early in July,
and there would just be time for the cracks
to come over here and rest up and get in
form for the national meet here. Mr.. Pot
ter agreed that if Indianapolis would raise
$500 the national organization would pay
the rest of the expense. This would be the
biggest card ever offered at national meet
and would probably bring more wheelmen
here than were ever gathered together.

FREIGHT RATES sLAsHED.
Decentralization at Chicago, for Which
There Seems to BE No Reason.


There Seems to Be No Reason.
CHICAGO, Oct 30.-Freight rates into and
out of Chicago in all directions are in a
condition of the utmost generalization At
no time in the last five years have things
been so badly mixed up as they are to-day.
Eastern and Western roads appear to be
vying with each other in their efforts to
see which can cut things deepest and cause
the most widespread disturbance. Existing
conditions are all the more inexpicable
when it is remembered that there is more
traffic moving and in sight to move than
the roads know how they are going to han
die. They are pushed to find rolling stock
and to prevent freight blockades along their
lines, and yet they keep on slashing rates
with the utmost abandon. Executive Of
ficers of the Western roads have arranged
to hold a meeting here Tuesday to see if
they cannot find a way of bringing order
out of the existing chaos. Their meeting
will be followed by one of the traffic Of
fcialS Wednesday, Between them it is
hoped some way will be found of putting an
end to cut-thrOat tactics and of having
tariff rates reasonably maintained. AS for
the east-bound roads, they have abandoned
themselves to despair until the close of nav
igation.
Tourists at Colorado points have found
themselves in a fix. The return limits of
their tickets practically expired yesterday,
but they found it impossible to leave for
their homes on account of the snow block
ade. Arrangements have been made to-day
by all the roads to extend the limits Of the
tickets to Oct. 81.
An agreement has been reached by the
Western roads to make a reduced rate of
fare and a third from Colorado common
points and all points east thereof to Chi
