NO APPELLATE NOMINEES
REPUBLICAN COMMITTEE Salts
FLED WITH RECENT DECISION.
Senator Fairbanks VIII BE Perma-
vention-The Programme.

The executive committee of the Republic
an State committee met yesterday after
noon at the rooms Of Chairman Hernly in
the Denison to determine a number of de-
tails. in regard to the State convention,
that had been referred to 1t by the State
committee.
The most important point determined was
that the committee should recommend to the
convention that Senator Charles w. Fair
banks be selected as permanent chairman
of the convention. Senator Fairbanks has
not been consulted upon the matter, but the
committee has no doubt he will accept.
The programme of the two days meeting,
so far as the committee felt competent to
outline it, was fixed. The preliminaries will
begin with the district meetings of delegates
which will be held in various rooms in the
Statehouse at 1870 o'clock in the morning
of Aug. 8. The committee meetings will
follow at IL o'clock and the convention will
begin at $3.50 o'clock p. m. The permanent
organization will be made and the platform
adopted at this session. There will prob
ably be another session in the evening which
will be devoted to good old-fashioned Re-
publican oratory, with the members of Con-
gress and others as the speakers
The work Of nominating candidates will
begin at o'clock in the morning Of Aug.
4, and will continue until the whole ticket
is named. AT yesterdays meeting nothing
was said about the question of nominating
appellate judges, but it is well understood
that no such nominations will be made and
that no attention will be paid to the fact
that the Democrats have nominated for the
Appellate Bench. The legal principle in
volved was thoroughly settled by the SUI
preme Court few days ago in its decision
in the township trustee case from Whitley
county.
The selection Of sergeant-at-arms, the
arrangement and decoration Of Tomlinson
Hall and the sale of the refreshment priv
ilege were left to committee composed of
the Marion county officials of the COM
mittee.

FAMILY'S PlTIABLE CONDITION
Mother and Father Both Have Mental
Ailments.

James and Annie Francis, husband and
wife, with their two children Freddie and
Lulu were brought to the police station last
night from North Indianapolis. The fam
fly is in pitable condition. Mrs Francis
has lost her mind and her husband is also
thought to be demented. Francis has been
out of work for some time and his family
Is almost destitute. Both husband and
wife. are suffering from melancholy. Fran
els was once employed at the Udell works,
but lost his place and moved away from
the city. While living at Connersville a few
weeks ago his house rent fell due and his
wife had no money with which TO pay it,
Francis at the time was away at some
temporary employment. His wife became
involved in trouble over the rent and was
sent to jail on the charge of provoke.
Yesterday the family came to this city
and went 10 the home CT ]. NJ. Mosher, a
street-car motorman living at Twenty
an6 Clifton street, North Indianapolis. Dur
ing the day Mrs. Francis developed some
violent symptoms of insanity and Police
Surgeon Christian was called. He Is of the
opinion that Francis is also afflicted with
melancholy Patroman Wecasler was sent
to Mosher's house last night TO investigate
the condition of the Francis family and con-
cluded that the husband and wife had bet
ter be locked up. The children refused 10
be separated from their parents and were
brought along to the police station.

A SUPPLY OF STAMPS.
They VIII BE on Sale at 8 O'Clock
This Morning.

Deputy Revenue Collector Glover placed a
sign in the corridor leading to his Office
yesterday, which read Revenue stamps
will be on sale at O'clock tomorrow MORN
ing" He had received a telegram from
Washington stating the stamps had been
sent and would arrive in time to be sold
early in the morning. The telegram did not
say how many were in the consignment,
but Major Glover found when they arrived
only O. small lot of documentary stamps.
No proprietary stamps were received.
The express and telegraph companies con-
tinue to make the people pay the tax. The
United States Express Company, which was
enjoined by Judge McMaster for refusing
to pay the tax on packages sent out by the
state insists the injunction applies only to
state business. The officers of the company
further say the packages, which contained
reports of the state geologist. were not de-
livered to the express company and really
the company was enjoined on charge OF
doing something which it had not done The
drivers Of the express companies wagons
have been instructed not TO say to patrons
that they will not accept packages II not
stamped. This, it is said, would involve their
franchise public carriers and would get
them into trouble Immediately with the
government. The drivers are told to say
they cannot accept packages unless the
patrons stamp them.
It is understood in the Statehouse there
will be no further move made toward at
tempting to force the express companies
to handle the reports of the state geologist
on the strength of the late temporary inJunc-
ton. until the two test cases now on trial
in the New York courts against the Adams
and American express companies are de.
cided. In the absence of Attorney General
Ketcham and State Geologist Blatchley
other officers familiar with the matter told
different stories. In the biologists office 1t
is thought probable the express company
viii recede from its position, but in the legal
department of the Statehouse it is thought
likely, in view of the present litigation in
progress in other parts of the country on
the same subject, the matter will be held
temporarily in allegiance.

SENDING MONEY HOME.
Governor Asked to Send Missionaries
Among the Soldiers.

Governor Mount is in receipt of letter
from William e. Dodge, of New York, call
ing his attention to federal law passed in
1861, by the provisions of which the Gov
ernor of every State is entitled to recon-
mend to the President two men from his
State who will act as a committee to work
among the soldiers of his own State with
a view to providing for their families at
home. The plan is to secure from each man
an authorization to forward a certain
amount of his pay through sight draft
issued by the government to any member
of his family who may be dependent on him
for support. During the civil war the plan
was tried and worked with great success
the report sent out from New York being
that $5,000,O00 was sent to that city by means
of the plan during the first year of its
adoption. Governor Mount has decided to
take the matter up for consideration, being
favorably impressed with the value of the
work in this direction. If it is found to be
practicable at this time and there is any
disposition on the part of other state execu-
tives to do likewise he will name two In
dianians to go among the soldiers from this
State and put the plan into practice. The
offices are not stipendiary ones.
