CROWD WAS INDIGNANT.
A Man and Girl Attract Much Atten-
tiOn-The Police Called.

Sergeant Boylan's attention was called
late last night to a man and little girl who
were going from hotel to hotel seeking ac-
commodations for the night The couple
had disappeared when the sergeant went in
search of them, but he found them later
on South Meridian street and arrested them.
Eight or ten men were folio wing at the
heels of the couple They were indignant
at the man, and it is likely hs would have
been summarily dealt with hat the officer
not come along. The man and girl were
evidently headed for some lodging house
below the Union Station, they had been
refused quarters at the hotels on this side.
The men following the pair seemed deter
mined that they should not find place to
stay. At one hotel the clerk showed the
couple to a room, but the crowd insisted
that he rescind his action and the couple
We're turned out into the street. The man
though she looks even younger, and wears
a short dress.
At the police station it developed that the
pair were Charles l.. Hughes a brakeman,
and Eva Siniclz, of q Station street, Bright
wood. The girl told conflicting stories about
her relations with the man. and the police
were convinced that the relations would
justify the arrest. She was locked up, and
her father, John w. Sinick, was notified.
The man Hughes was drunk, and had a
double charge placed against him.
Sergeant BOylan offered to allow the girl
to go home, but she declared she would GO
with Hughes. One of the men in the crowd
offered to send the girl home or send her
to hotel and have her in court this morn
ing, but she preferred the police station.

BUFFERS CUBAN ARMY. "
Young Men of the College Grow Wild
Iy Enthusiastic.

With cries of "Cuba libre! Down with
Spain" the students of Butler College
strung up eftsgies of Weyler and De LONE
in the college campus last night A big
bonfire blazed in front of the main college
building, guns were fired and the old col
lege bell rang out on the night air. Citizens
were aroused by the students shouts, and
suspecting fire ran toward the college build
ings. They found crowd of disguised stu
dents dancing wildly around pile of burn
ing boxes and barrels, giving "rahs" for
Cuba and waving hats and canes in much
glee Near by, dangling from tall cleo
tric-light pole, hung hideous effigies,
dressed in tattered clothing and bearing
huge placards reading "Weyler' and DE
Lone" Shots rang out and the students
pelted the swinging forms with snowballs
and rocks. The first body Of collegians was
REINFORCED by half-dressed students, who
came running to see what was the matter.
Some Irvington citizens stood at a distance
and viewed the celebration with evident APP
prevail One man was heard to say: That's
right, boys, hit 'em again.
The demonstration was the first public
appearance of the Cuban Army a recent
organization at Butler Soon after dark
Yesterday evening students began collecting
sDarrels and boxes. These were hauled to
the campus about 10 o'clock last night, and
soon afterward the demonstration began.
Not all the students in college participated
in the affair. Several stood in the streets
close at hand but took no part in the
merry-making. The effigy of De LONE was
dressed in black and had a blooming mask,
which was surmounted by a SLOUGH hat.
Weyler wore gray trousers, black coat and
was hatless. The images were supposed to
be suspended by their necks, and they
twisted and twirled as they were bonn
barded by the students. The spirit of fun
pervaded the demonstration but the Span
iards were denounced bitterly.
The army had thrown out pickets to
warn the main division" of the approach
of the president of the college, of Sam
Smith, the town marshal, of Mel. the
college janitor. None of these appeared,
however, and the army" was unmolested.
The effigies were left dangling from the
poles. They will probably be removed by
the college authorities before recitations
begin to-day
Some spectators at last nights demon
stratlon Yentured that President Butler
would disband the Cuban Army at chapel
this morning. The students insist that they
are going to write letter to President Nc
Kinley offering their services in case of
war with Spain.

Teggart will give him a reception. 1t is to
General Booth that the Salvation Army

England, in 1929, and he early consecrated
his life to the suffering poor of his country.
In 1855 he was married to Catherine Num-

HIS VERDICT IS MURDER
CORONER's INVESTIGATION OF THE
KILLING OF TAYLOR.
Testimony at the Inquest Yesterday
Made Things Look Rather Dark
for Bert Jones, the Slayer.

Coroner Brayton yesterday conducted an
investigation of the death of John Taylor,
colored, who was shot and killed Saturday
by Bert Barnes He rendered formal ver-
dict to the effect that Taylor came to his
death by a gunshot wound inflicted by
Barnes. Barnes is held without bond on
charge of murder, and the coroner's verdict
does not tighten the charge against him
so as to make it a bailable case, although
the testimony does not show him in very
bad light in connection with the death of
Taylor. His preliminary hearing will be
had in Police Court next Tuesday, and he
will be defended by Henry Spaan.
Prosecutor Wiltsie and Mr. Span were
at the inquest yesterday and questioned the
witnesses. Edward Hiding, Benjamin
Young, Harry Curtis and Charles Barnes
We're examined. Their stories did not differ
greatly. There was just enough of dis
agreement on small points to give their
statements credit Hiding was attending
the pool tables. Taylor and Frank Kunkle
were playing pool Hiding testified that
Taylor was beaten the last game, but dis
puted the count. He refused to pay for the
game, and Bert Barnes, the bartender. re-
fused to give him a check on the game.
There were some words, and Barnes or
dered Taylor out of the place. Taylor de-
clared that he would fix Barnes if he did
not get the check At the same time he
placed his right hand to his hip pocket.
Charles Barnes proprietor of the saloon,
came in about this time and demanded to
know what the trouble was about Wit
ness heard two shots, but could not see
either Bert Barnes or Taylor from his posi-
tion
Benjamin Young testified to about the
same facts leading up to the shooting as
contained in the testimony of Hiding. He
says Taylor declared he would get Barnes
even if he had to wait for a better oppor-
tunity. He said the men went outside the
screen doors when the shooting was going
on, and he did not actually see it. He saw
Taylor make motion as If to draw a
pistol as they passed through the screen
doors. He thought Taylor became angry
during the argument, but was positive that
Barnes never lost his temper.
Harry Curtis and Charles Barnes gave
almost exactly the same account of the
shooting According to them, Taylor
started out of the saloon, when ordered sew
eral times to do so, saying: "I'll go out
On you; but I'll be back" He was then
just opposite the cigar case in the front of
the saloon. He took step or two and then
turned, and with an oath and applying a
vile name to Bert Barnes, "Il kill you
now" At the same time, according to the
testimony, he repeated the motion as If to
draw weapon. Barnes then fired over
Taylor'S head. Taylor wheeled around and
STOPPING over. looked at Barnes under his
arm. At the same time he put his hand
into his hip pocket and Barnes fired the
second shot

sahm Withdraws.

Albert Sahm. the ex-postmaster, has re-
tired from the race for the Democratic
nomination for county treasurer. He said
yesterday that he had come to this determi-
nation after a consultation with his wife.
He further said that, as a business PROPOSE
ton. he did not think it would pay him to
run for the honor under present condi-
tions. But there are other reasons that have
Influenced Mr.. Sahm in withdrawing from
the race. While he was attending to his du-
ties as postmaster Peter Sindlinger was
making an active canvass for the nomina-
ton. The means employed by Sindlinger
and his friends have not been the most dig
nifed, neither have they been the fairest
that could have been used and Mr.. Sahm's
friends are, consequently, very indignant
on account of what they term the shabby
treatment accorded him. When Mayor Tag
CART returned from West Baden Mr.. Sahm
was one of the many who patiently waited
in the lobby of the Grand Hotel to see him,
and it was after this conference with the
mayor that Mr.. Sahm gave up the race.

WASHINGTON-STREET PAVING.
Committee of Property Owners VIII
Meet the Board of Works To-day.

To-day is the time set by the Board OF
Public Works for taking final action on the
Washington-street improvement The COM
mittee of property owners will suggest that,
instead Of asphalt, wooden block pavement
shall be laid. 1t will also be recommended
that grooved street-car rails be substituted
for the old style now in use. These are be-
lieved to give less wearing surface, and to
leave the roadway smoother. There will
also be q recommendation that raised
places be made in the street at the Ken
lucky and Virginia avenue functions for
street-car passengers to stand while waiting
for cars. where they would be out of dam
ger from the traffic. This plan contem-
plates the location of lavatories for the
public beneath the refugees. This idea is
European but is believed to be both prac-
ticable and desirable.
