MRS. WHITES PROPERTY.
Administrators of Her Estate Sues for
Possession of 1t.

John T. Byan, administrator OF the es-
tate of Susan A. White, brought suit in the
Circuit Court yesterday against Mary
sSnider a daughter of Mrs. White, and
William Fl. Wolfe. The death of Mrs. White
occurred in February. 1896. 1t is alleged that
the daughter looked after all business af-
fairs for the mother and took charge of
about $500 of pension money, which the
mother had drawn. 1t is claimed that the
daughter, as trustee for the heirs of Mrs.
Whites estate, holds the money and refuses
to make an accounting to the administrator.
1t is also claimed that the daughter col
lected rents from the mothers property
which she held in trust for the decedent
together with the proceeds from the sale of
a house and lot. There is further charge
that the daughter retains possession of GER
tain articles of jewelry, clothing and house,
hold effects that belonged to her mother.
The administrator demands possession of all
tangible property belonging TO the estate
and asks for a judgment for $1,000. VIII
liam n. Wolfe is named as a defendant to
answer as to any interest he may have in
the estate.

MORE COTTAGES NEEDED
CROWDED CONDITION OF THE La
FAYETTE SOLDIERS HOME.
Instructions to Veterans Who Visit
the National Recommendations
of the SEVENTEEN Indiana.

The Soldiers Home, at Lafayette, is food
ed with applications from veterans who
wish to enter. The number of inmates of
the home is now too large for the place. 1t
is felt that something must be done to meet
the demand of the old soldiers to find a
resting place under the care of the State.
Along this line the soldiers home committee
of the State Department of the G. A. r.
will meet on the afternoon of Aug. 3 at the
headquarters, at the Statehouse, and dis
cuss means of building more cottages at the
Lafayette home. Each congressional dis
trict is represented on this committee. The
decision of the meeting will probably be
to ask the commissioners of many of the
counties of the State to appropriate money
from the county funds to build cottages at
the Lafayette home. There are now about
thirty cottages there that have been erected
on funds appropriated by counties. There
would not be too many cottages If that
many more were to be built.
A circular was received yesterday at the
state headquarters Of the G. A r. from the
committee in charge of the National En-
campment, to be held at Cincinnati, stat
ing that only members of the Grand Army,
wearing badges, will be presented with the
coupon books emitting the bearers to spe-
cal concessions at places of amusement
These coupons will allow those who have
them to enter some amusement places free
and other places at half rates. For this
reason it is desired that every veteran who
attends the encampment shall have a
Grand Army badge on his coat.
The annual reunion of the Seventeen In
diana Regiment will be held at Bethany

apolis may leave the Union Station at 4
o'clock Thursday afternoon and quarter
after o'clock Friday morning. An inter-
Thursday night has been prepared Reduced

ular meeting, but as most of the councilmen
will be out of the city, attending the meet
ing Of the League of American Municipal
tiles at Detroit it is believed there will be
no quorum, and an effort will be made to
rush through several matters that cannot
well be held over for a fortnight at the
special meeting.
Next Sunday evening the city officials will
leave Indianapolis for Detroit, arriving a
day or two before the convention begins,
ready to take active steps to have the

Spoiled the Sport OF 5000 Spectators
and Forfeited the Game.


NEW YORK, July 25.-New York to-day
forfeited the game to Baltimore after half
of the fourth inning had been played. The
score at that time was one to one Holmes,
when at bat in Baltimore's inning, struck
out. A fan" in the grand stand yelled:
"Oh, Ducky, you're lobster
We'll I'm glad I'm not working for a
'Sheeny' any more" replied Holmes.
Umpire Lynch turned around and said
something to Holmes, who went to the
bench. President Freedman, who was sit
ting in the grand stand, sent representa-
tive down with a request that Manager
Hanlon take Holmes out of the game Han
Ian referred Freedman's representative to
the umpire, who said he had not heard the
remark, and refused to take Holmes out of
left field. Mr. Freedman then came on the
grounds and asked for the expulsion of the
player. and on being refused. told Joyce not
to play ball. Lynch then gave the game to
the Baltimores, 9 to 0. The spectators
about three thousand. received their money
back.
President Freedman stated afterwards
that he would protest the game, and that
he would report Holmes to the board of
discipline. He also said that people had
been crying Tor gentlemanly ball playing

w. j. TURNER'S VISIT
Revives Talk of Street-RaiIrOad Pres
idency.

William j. Turner, one of the directors
of the Citizens Railroad Company, is in
the city. He is accompanied by his
mother. Mr.. Turner and Mayor Taggart
drove over the proposed White river park
system yesterday to discuss means of get
ting stree-car transportation to the parks.
Several ideas were considered, but at this
early day it was considered impossible to
announce definite routes for lines to the
park. After a very busy day Mr.. Turner
declined to see a reporter last night, plead
ing that he was not very well.
With Mr.. Turner's coming, talk as to the
presidency of the street-railroad company
has revived, and there is a belief that 1t
may be settled while he is here, but Mr..
Turned himself would not confirm that re.
port.

Loughead May be Disqualified.

Fred Loughead. the Canadian champion,
who cut such wide swath last.year at the
Philadelphia meet, has announced his inten-
ton of entering the lists here during the big
meet for the championship. While he is
one Of the fastest men on the track and we'll
liked by the racers, there is a strong prob
ability of his being disqualified from enter
ing any of the United States championships
on account Of his being permanently To-
Gated in Canada. Last year he was turned
down by Chairman Mott, but later was al
lowed to ride, it being shown that he was,
by reason of his racing steadily in this
country for living, resident OF the United
States. This year the circumstances are diff
ferent and the chances are his entry will be
refused.
