CIevv to the Murder.

Special to the Indianapolis Journal
PORTLAND, Ind, Feb. 13-Aeting on the
story told by Thomas Head last night, that
he had been approached by William Jarrett.
the latter asking him to join in job to
make some money at a widows home, Jar
rett was arrested and brought here early
this morning. He was given a preliminary
examination before Mayor Berkman late
this afternoon, but there was nothing to
substantiate Heads story. Head is still in
jail and it is thought he knows more of the
cruel murder and robbery of Mrs. Louisa
Stoltz than he has told. All day streams
of people have visited the Stoltz home,
where the body of the murdered woman lies.
J. w. Policy, the attorney for the murdered
woman, is authority for the statement that
in his opinion not less than $1,000 was Sc
cured. The authorities have few other
clews, and are basing a good deal on the
bandana handkerchief which was wrapped
around the womans head A small blue
handkerchief was also found. There is Bit
ter feeling against the murderers.

OBITUARY.
Count TxaInOky, the WeII-known
Hungarian Statesman.


BRUNN. Feb. 13.-Count Gustav Sieg-
mund KalnolSy De Koros-Patak former
Austro-Hungarian minister of foreign af-
fairs, died here this afternoon.
Count KaInoky was born at Lettowitz.
Moravia, Dec. %, 1892. He was descended
from the Mcravian branch of an old Bohe-
milan family. He entered the diplomatic
service of Austria in 1856. From 1860 to
1870 he was councillor of legation al the Aus
TRAN embassy in London. In 1874 he was
minister at Copenhagen In 1880 he was
sent as ambassador to st. Petersburg, and
in 1881 he was appointed Austro- Hungarian
minister of foreign affairs, a post he held
with distinction until May 16, 1885, when he
was succeeded by the present Austro- Hun
garian foreign minister, Count GOluchowski.
The cause for his resignation was found in
Count Kalnoky's action in reference to the
den1nciation of ecclesiastic laws by the pa
pal nuncio at Vienna, Monsignor Agliardi,
who was charged by Baron Banffy, the
Hungarian prime minister with having
made statements at Buda-Pesth which
amounted to interference in Hungarian af-
fairs. Baron Banffy addressed a note to
Count Kalnoky, informing him that an in
terpellati0n was about to be put forward in
the Hungarian Parliament concerning the
utterances of the nuncio, which had APP
peared in the Hungarian newspapers and
had never been disclaimed by their author.
Count Kalnoky replied that the nuncio had
displayed tactleSsness, overStepped the lin
its prescribed for foreign diplomatic repre-
sentatives, and that deserved that o For
eign Office note be sent to the Vatican to
complain of his conduct. He went SO far
9-s to sketch a communication to the Vati-
can, and the Hungarian premier tele-
graphed his approval of it. A few days
after Baron Banffy said in the Hungarian
Parliament that the papal nuncio's acts were
not approved in Vienna. AS soon as this
speech was recited to Count Kalnoky he
TQrr1a
of his letter to Baron Banffy was for public
knowledge; that the rest was confidential,
and that the protest to the Vatican had not
been sent. Efforts were made to reconcile
the two ministers, but these were unavail-
Ing. The Hungarian House approved Baron
Banffys attitude unreseFvedly, and Count
KalnnIkY RESIGNED.

Trimmed and Trained skirts.


The fact is well established now that long
trailing skirts are to be worn with house
gOwnS-by house gowns are meant evening
gowns, reception gowns. or any gowns suit
ed for house wear. AS yet We have not
gone back to long skirts for street wear
although even walking gowns have the
skirts long enough to require holding up in
the street. Many of the long skirts are
extremely graceful. There is one style
which is made with very little goring, fits
quite sheathlike, with the fulness laid in
small pleatS, but cut to flare out at the end
OF the train. In soft silks. satins, poplins
Gnd cashmeres this is very attractive, for
the lines are so graceful. The plain look is
broken by bands of trimming either down
the seams or around the foot, or else with
patterns Of embroidery and cut work put
on the fronth breadth. There is evidently
an intention of restoring drapery. for some
very smart skirts have the front and side
breadths long enough to allow of draping
just a little back of the hip, and showing
a glimpse of an under pettcoat Of different
material. This is q becoming style of skirt.
and looks especially well when the back
breadths long enough to train.
