INDIANAPOLIS cURFEw LAW.
Policemen to Warn Children on the
Streets Mt Night.


Seventy-nve policemen at roll-call sat
In the crowded temporary station-room
last night in solid damp blue block, and
this mass OF the majesty of the law was
leavened with knowledge of the curfew
law before being sent broadcast to set the
law working In all parts Of the city. Sup
erintendent Quigley read the curfew ordi-
nance slowly and distinctly, from BE It
ordained" to witness my hand and seal'
The enforcement Of the law was to begin
that night, he said, after finishing the
reading. The efforts at first must be in
the nature of an experiment. The patrol
men must not be too severe at first, and
must always use great deal of judg-
ment. All children seen out in the streets
after O'Clock must be warned, and warn
ed in a way that would make them under
stand that the police meant to be serious
There must be no joking with the boys
on the subject.
The superintendent called attention to
the fact that some children under fifteen
are permitted to go about after S-such
as those working at night or running err
rands for their parents or guardians,
Some. too, he said, went to church. such
way Of Identifying such children, he said,
would probably be adopted. Those of st.
Paurs church intended to adopt ribbon
or ticket. Some girls under fifteen at
tended the Young Woman's Christian AS
ISOLATION prayer meetings, and other
gatherings, and these were also to be dis
tinguished by some sort OF badge
The Superintendent said that, while the
police were to use good judgment in the
enforcement of the law, they were to be
on the lookout for violations of it, and TO
speak to all children whom they found
out after o'clock. II they were in doubt.
they should call up the station and get
advice from the sergeant or captain in
charge there. He said that there would
be further instructions on this subject
from time to time
After all. large part of the enforce
ment Of the law came about without any
action on the part of the police. When
factory whistles gave forth a solemn toot-
ing in various parts of the city at
o'clock, boys who were still in the streets
made a grand rush to cover, and police
men saw boys scuTrying home without
lectures on their part. 1t was an i'm
pressive night for the beginning of the en-
forcement of the ordinance-full of wet
darkness, which gave a mournful sound
to the whistles, for the curfew blew rather
than rang last night. The rain, however,
was as effective as the curfew In keeping
many children indoors.

THE HAzELTON SHOOTING.
Trial of Sheriff Martin and His Depu-
ties Begun.

WILKESBARRE, PA, February l.
Not since the trials of the Molly Nc
CURES has a case attracted so much at
tention in this State as that of Sheriff
Martin and his eighty-two deputies.
which began in the Luzerne County
Court to-day.
Sheriff Martin and his deputies are
charged with shooting twenty-five strik-
ing miners and wounding over fifty more
at Lattimer, this county, on September
10. 1897.
The deputies marched In in a body,
and seating themselves, began to read the
morning papers, apparently unconcerned.
Judge Woodford presided
The Commonwealth asked for nolle
pros in the cases of Leonard Babcock.

District-Attorney Martin explained that
while the names Of these men were in
the indictment, the Commonwealth found
that the men were not present at TIE
scene of the shooting and therefore
could not be held for trial.
Attorney Lenehan, counsel for the de-
fence, objected. demanding a trial by
jury, but the court allowed the motion,
and the nolle pros was entered.

Jurors had been obtained: ELI Weaver,

Special Counsel Fees.
(New York Times.)

Partly through the reasonableness or
his criticisms and in part through the
brute force Of circumstances, the Mayor
has much the best of the game In ms
somewhat gleeful exposure of the abuse
OF large fees TO special counsel under the
last administration. Nothing tickles the
crowd like the spectacle of an eminent
reformer laid fat on his back. The
Mayor is not unaware OF that fact.
Mayor Strong set his Commissioners or
Accounts at work TO ferret out Tammany
steals. and they found nothing. Mayor
Van Wyck finds that a great many thou
sand dollars were paid, as fees, under
Mayor Strong, TO lawyers who are open
and notorious reformers. All Of these
fees were large. Some OF them were ex-
travagant, improper and disgraceful. In
the game of politics. this is a great point
scored for Tammany and against the
reformers.
Tho important aspect of the exposure
is not political. however. The payment or
twenty or thirty thousand dollars in a
year to a lawyer as special fees for SER
vice In condemnation proceedings that did
not demand anywhere rear all Of his time
nor degree of legal knowledge not
possessed by less eminent and high-priced
practitioners is a sclndalous abuse in
the business administration of the city.
Its correction is matter OF business not
OF politics. The Corporation Counsel an
nounces his readiness to supply all the
law required IN the business OF the vari-
Gus departments. and this remedy for the
abuse Of extravagant special counsel fees
has the approval of the Mayor. That is
sound reform. The only question is as TO
the quality of the law supplied.
Law may be too cheap as well as too
expensive. and law that was at once
cheap and poor would prove in the END
the most costly.

anxious about it just at this time. We
must give the Democrats one more chance
