Alexander Shepherd is dying in
Mexico from a stroke Of paralysis.
He is an American, a Marylander
by birth and in the seventies
made a reputation in Washing
ton as one Of the most extrava-
CANT men that ever governed the
District of Columbia. He was APP
pointed governor of the District
by President Grant. In those
days Washington was a sickly,
malarial hole. Shepperd, who
was a plumber by trade and bust
ness calling, saw the necessities
Of a perfect drainage system to
make Washington what it should
be, city Of high sanitary stand
ing and a place Of beauty. He
began the work and unmindful
of the cry of trials and abuse Of
tax payers, he gave Washington
what it long needed-a thorough
sewerage system, with streets
we'll paved but at the expenditure
IF $40,O00,OO0, which made the
national capital one of the
healthiest cities with best paved
streets in the Union. The cry of
corruption, ruin and bossism be-
came so loud and fierce that he
was removed, to find that Wash
ington was S21,OOO,OOO in debt.
His name in the press Of the coun-
try became synonym of corrup-
ton, fraud and dishonesty, and
with this odium weighing him
down, although reported to BE-
worth million dollars, he lost
his fortune. He then showed the
stuff that was in him. He re-
turned to his business of plumbing
and in less than ten years paid
every obligation he had made
and again became man Of
wealth, when he went into the
mountain Businesses Of Mexico,
225 miles from railroad and
embarked in silver mining, where
fortune ever since has followed
him and he is now reported as the
possessor OF millions. Since tn,
years when Shepherd was exc
Grated aS the incarna ton of cor
fupt practices, time has made
tardv amends. His name il now
Rloritied as the man whose fore
tnousnC redeemed Washington
from mud hole and death trap
and m ide it the most beautiful
city in the world.

ONLY FREE-SlLVER VOTES.
No Gold Democrats Will Go to the
Primaries TO-MOrrOw.

The prominent members of the National
Democratic party have decided to give the
free-siver Democratic primaries on Satur-
day night a wide berth. The National DEM
ocrats have an excellent organization, State
and local, and they propose to continue in
the fight for honest money as long as the
deprecated currency fad dominates the old
party organization. The efforts that have
been made to cement the two wings of the
party have proved abortive, and although
the gold Democrats united with the silver
men in supporting Thomas Taggart for
mayor they will refuse to stult1fy their con-
victions in q campaign involving national
issues They have every reason to believe
that the silver advocates have been losing
ground ever since the disastrous defeat of
1896, and they confidently predict that the
state ticket which they will put into the
field next fall, will result in greater defec-
tions from the regular party than occurred
in the last campaign. The state committee
of the national wing will be called together
in a short time, and it is likely that if he
will accept S. O. Pickens will be reelected
az chairman.

X. Of p. Encamrment sites.

The reports of the subcommittee on col
lections to the X. of p. fund were made at
the Commercial Club last night. They were
of a satisfactory nature. Chairman Parry
urged the committees TO harder work, how
ever. in order that the fund may all be col
lected by Jan. u, if possible.
The camp committee met after the adj
iournment of the finance committee and an
nounced that three sites had been offered
for the camp. All were available, and vet
there was one that seemed 10 have a more
advantageous position. The committee, how
ever came TO no conclusion and II will give
no information as TO its work until the spot
is finally chosen for the location. The ques-

BILL POSTERS At WAR.
Fort Wayne-Avenue Boards Lead to
Injunction Proceedings.

a temporary injunction recently issued
against the Empire Theater Bill-posting
Company has revealed the facts of a war
that is being waged by two rival concerns.
The question of a permanent Injunction will
be passed upon to-day in Room 2, Superior
Court.
The plaintiff in the litigation is the In
dianapolis Bill-posting Company. The fight
involves the right to a set of bill boards at
No. 100 Fort Wayne avenue. The real es-
tate on which the boards are located is the
property of Mr. and Mrs VIM. V. Rocker.
In August, 1886, the Empire Theater Com
pany leased the right to erect boards on the
premises for one year, with an option, it is
claimed, of renewing the contract II an
agreement could be reached. The Empire
people claim that before the time expired
they notified the agent of the property that
they would like to renew the contract. The
agent claimed the matter was out of his
hands and that the tenant of the property
had right to lease it, In the meantime
the Indianapolis Company, as alleged, had
been covering the Empire boards will bills,
and the manager of that company ar
rested and fined at the instance of the En-
pire Company. July 16, 1897, the Indianapo-
lis Company procured lease on the prop
erty from the tenant, but the Empire peo-
pie continued to plaster the boards with
their own paper. A short time ago the In
dianapols Company had one of the Empire
theater men arrested for trespassing, but
he was acquitted Last week an order tenn
porarily restraining the Empire Company
from using the boards was made by Judge
Harvey.

PAYING THE STATE DEBT
FINANCE BOARD ORDERS S2O0,OOO
ADDITIONAL BONDS TAKEN UP.
In Six Years Indiana VIII Practically
owe Nothing, at Same Rate
of Liquidation.

The financial board Of the State, consist
ing of the Governor auditor of state and the
state treasurer, held meeting yesterday
and ordered the payment of 100000 of the
temporary-loan bonds of 1889. The warrants
for taking up the bonds are payable on Jan.
%. These bonds bear per cent. interest,
and their cancellation saves the States $500
a month in interest charges They are not
due until Sept. 20, 1899, but the State has
an option upon their payment which is now
operative After the taking up of these
bonds there will yet remain 100000 of the
same issue unpaid, but Treasurer Scholz
is of the opinion that the entire amount will
be Cancelled during the present year. By
the action of the Finance Board yesterday
the foreign debt of the State is reduced to
$5,510OO0, and the total debt, including the
domestic debt. is now $6,O0O615. Mr.. Schoz
says that at the present rate of liquidation
the State will be practically out of debt in six
years The domestic debt, which amounts
to $4s4.000, consists of Purdue and State
university bonds, the payment of interest on
which Is only method of giving state aid
to those institutions These university bonds
bear per cent. and are payable in 1901, but
until the Legislature authorizes some one
to receive the money they cannot be paid.

THE MONETARY CONVENTION
Replies to the Call Sent Out by Chair
man Hanna.

Answers to the call for the monetary con-
vention sent out last Friday are beginning
TO pour into the headquarters of the execu-
tive committee by wire and mail. Strong
delegations have been elected by COM
mercial bodies in New York, Brooklyn, Bal
timore and other large cities, and num-
Der of cities of the South and West that
were not represented last year have sig
nifed their intention of being represented
at this convention.
AT the same time it is possible that some
of the cities represented last year will not
send delegations this year, and for an I'M
expected reason. An example of this ten
dency was a letter received yesterday from
the Albany Board of Trade The letter de-
clared that the board was most heartily in
favor of the plan devised by the commits
sion, and therefore did not regard it as
necessary to send delegates, but stood ready
to aid the movement in any possible way.
A reply was sent declaring that the best
way to support the movement was by send
ing strong delegation to represent the
board at the convention.

Main Purpose of the New Ordinance
Develops.

Main Purpose of the New Ordinance
Develops.
Mayor Taggart is considering the plumb
ing ordinance, passed at the last session of
the Council. 1t does not, as "a morning pa
per stated, require the abolition of all vaults
and cesspools in the city, where The prop
erty is located within half a square of sew
ers with which connections can be made.
Such provision would require every house
so located to put in water works, and would
doubtless not be approved by the mayor.
The provision is that when public sewers
are or shall be constructed within one-half
square of any premises on which there
may be privy vaults or cesspools into
which polluted water is drained it shall
be the duty of the owner or agent ito con-
meet the drains of such polluted water with
the public sewers 1t is made the duty of
the owners ''of such premises to clean out
regulations of the Board of Health, and to
cause such vaults and ceSspools 10 be filled
with earth or other wholesome material"
This provision was one of the amendments
proposed to ihe original ordinance by Dr.
Moffett, chairman of the Council commit
tee. Its purpose was not TO require every
house owner TO fit up his premises with
plumbing, but TO compel those whose
houses were already fitted to connect the
sewers instead of running the waste into
cesspools and vaults, as may now be done
notably the owner of a large block i'm the
center of the city. 1t is believed. however
that the provision compelling the owners
to dig trenches and lay sewer pipe to a
main sewer half a block away will be much
opposed by property owners, as the cost
will be large. This provision was not un-
derstood by the Board OF Health when it
was slipped in by the Council committee
1t is quite evidently in the interest of the
plumbers. There is another point that was
not taken into consideration by the COM
mittee--that Is, not all sewers in Indianapo-
lis can be used for draining sewage from
houses; many of them are only constructed
to carry excess storm water in case of
floods. There is likely TO be some trouble
in this direction as the ordinance makes
no exception. and requires the owners to
drain their premises 10 public sewers, !"
which are or shall be constructed.

Brightwood Gns Rates.

The mass meeting of citizens of Bright
wood last night talked about natural-gas
rates after discussing the announcement
that the Pogue' s-run parks were to be
bought. Before the suburb was annexed to
the city contract was made by the Town
Board with the indianapolis Gas Company
under which rates for natural gas are much
higher than the city's rates Now Bright
wood residents are anxious to have the
rates reduced. Councilman Smit- last night
intimated that something might be done
for them by the city attorney. He advised
paying the bills, and then pay the old rate
under protest. Mr.. Smith said that he be-

OVER $4,000 IN FINES DUE.
Ctiy's Negligence i'm Collecting This
Money.

During the time that City Clerk Stuck
meyer has been in office, over five hundred
fines, with accrued costs, have been stayed,
either by the convicted prisoner or those
who became surety for them. In many
cases partial payments have been made,
so that Mr.. Stuckmeyer thinks there is an
average of about Sc due in each case. The
fines and costs run from S. to $50, some
of them being higher.
This week Mr.. Stuckmeyer has been send
ing notices to the defendants and their
sureties containing the information that
the fines must be paid. Under the law
where fine is not paid by the prisoner or
his surety. the prisoner may be committed
to the workhouse until it is paid or worked
out. While the city clerk is reluctant to
resort to this PLAN he says that If the
notices to pay are not complied with the
prisoners will have to be committed. TAX
ing Sc as an average in each case, there is
something over S. 900 due the Police Court.
