MEN TO BE in COMMAND
THE JOURNALS LIST OF OFFICERS
PROVES CORRECT.
Successful Recruiting for the En-
gineering and Signal Corps
COIOred Companies.

The statement made in the Journal of yes
terday with regard TO the appointments for
the new regiment from this State, were
practically verified when in CONVEX
sation with the Governor, the latter adj
mitted that the regimental officers would be
substantially as printed. The only doubtful
case is that of Lieutenant Peterson, who Is
slated for majorship. conditionally.
The contingency in the case is that there
has been great influence brought to bear on
the executive for the appointment of First
Lieutenant Charles Il. Bundy of the Third
Regiment in the regular army, now in Cuba,
to command of one of the battalions of the
regiment. He is an Indianan, appointed
from New Castle, in this State, and has the
support of the Sixth district, which is en-
titled to one of the commanding officers
The work done. for Lieutenant Bundy is
without his knowledge and he is, under
the new regulations, now a captain, it is
not thought likely that he will leave that
rank in the regulars, where he will see
some active service, for a majorshp in a
reserve regiment. While he will be given an
opportunity to decline the appointment, it
is thought likely that it will be merely as a
matter of form and that the place will be
then turned over to Lieutenant Peterson.
In any event the latter will be provided for,
as the Governor stated yesterday in no I'M
certain language that even if Lieutenant
Bundy accepted the appointment, there will
be provision made for Lieutenant Peterson.

THE COLORED- COMPANIES.
Governors ONCE FINALLY Gets In
structiOns from the Department..

According to the tenor of the information
| received by Governor Mount yesterday in a
| telegram from Senator Fairbanks the State
| executive is authorized to begin at once the
| enlistment of two colored companies from
| this State to so to- the frent independently.
| With this news comes the added informa-
| ton that the companies will be permitted
| to have as commanders all their colored
commissioned officers from captains down.
! This information, coming, as it does. in no
unmistakable language, is source of much
| qualification to the colored men who have
! since the beginning of the war been alter
| nately hopeful and Respondent over their
chances of serving. The first direct intima-
ton that the Governor received denoting
success for his efforts in behalf of the col
ored men came in the telegram from Sen
| ator Fairbanks, as follows:
while / was with the secretary of war
| he dictated an order to enlist two colored
| companies, with colored captains for each,
panies with colored officers if they had to
! fight alone. He also said that it was the
Presidents orders that this should be done.
! The colonel of the regiment and other
| subordinate officers are strongly opposed,
and evidently hesitate to carry out the in
StructionS.
| The wording of this dispatch was con-
| strued to mean that there was in spite of
the War Department, a hitch in the matter
| SOIleWneTS, out all QOuDI was QlSpelleQ
when the following dispatch came shortly
| after from Secretary Alger direct:
| captain. first and second leutenants, col
| ored men for all companies raised in Indi-
| ana. This is in response for a request for
definite information just made by Senator
| Fairbanks its, "
OF all the companies reported from time

| These companies are both located in this

FRANKFORT, Ind, June 21.-The much
discussed case of Nellie Stevens against the
Fowler National Bank of Lafayette is now
on trial in the Clinton Circuit Court. Sew
eral months ago Nellie Stevens, the keeper
of boarding house in Leadville. Col.
moved to Lafayette, and, going to the Fow-
Ter Bank, announced her desire to deposit
$4,000, stating that she wanted two certifi-
Gates, one OF $1,000 and the other for 81 800.
The bank clerk made out the certificates
and the Colorado depostor is said to have
paid over only $500 and left the bank be-
fore the clerk discovered that the certif-
Gates called for 81, 600 more money than the
fair visitor had deposited. A messenger
was sent after Miss Stevens, but the lady
claimed that she had left the amount the
certificates called for, and sued for 81, 800.
The bank claims to be able to show that
Miss Stevens drew the money out of q Lead
Vile bank, and that she at no time had 81
800. Miss Stevens is a handsome woman,
and is said to have rather romantic his
tory.

A young naval lieutenant has written a
letter to his sweetheart giving his views of
the newspaper correspondent which are not
at all f1attering. The letter was written
from Tampa Fla, last week, Just before the
fleet of transports left for Cuba. The young
officer wrote:
Last. evening we were all prepared to
sail and merely waiting for orders About
~ p. m. tug came up to us and gave Gen.
Miles a telegram. We soon knew the con-
tents. for 1t was signaled to every ship to
not move till further orders. 1t appears
that some Spanish war ships are getting
dangerously near the Florida coast and it
was thought better to wait. To-day the
rumor has been officially confirmed from
Washington and nearly all the ships are in
the canal tonight. Everything is now sus-
pense. anxiety and worry. The air is full
of dreary forebodings Everyone is eagerly
