THE LEBANON ROBBERIES.
Two OF the Gang of Crooks Were from
Indianapolis.

w. T. Fletcher, postoffice inspector, re-
turned yesterday from Lafayette where he
went on account of the arrest of the five
men charged with robbing the Lebanon
postoffice. Two of the men proved to be
indianapolis crooks of reputation. One of
them is Harry Church, of No. q Jefferson
avenue, who served four years at Michigan
City for highway robbery, and the other is
Joseph Davis, a yellow negro, who spent a
large part of his youth in the Reform
School for Boys and then served two years
in the penitentiary The other robbers are
R. A. Williams, of Buffalo, and Charles
Howard, of New Castle, and Patrick Ryan,
of Lafayette.
They are all desperate characters, and the
catch is considered one of the best made
recently. The authorities found in Churchs
possession twenty-one pension checks, of
chung to the commission of the postmaster
at New Brunswick, a small office three
miles from Lebanon, though with what OBJ
ject is only a SurmiSe. The pension checks
had been Endorsed by one OF the men, and
if the guilty one is discovered forgery win
be easily made against him.
Davis made a confession to Mr.. Fletcher,
In which he took care to give himself the
best of it. He declared that he was men,
Der Of the gang and helped in some rohber-
les, but refused to take part in the robbery
of the postoffice. He even opposed the I'M
dertaking, and while three of the men were
robhing the postoffice he and Howard were
robbing a poultry house. In all he con-
fessed to five robberieS for the gang, the
robbery of the poStoffice. the poultry house,
the Chicago & Southeastern station house.
a dwelling house in the country and a man
met on the road
The five men will have a hearing before
a United States commissioner Friday. In
the meantime they are held at Lafayette in
default of $500 bail each.

APOLOGIZED TO THE GOVERNOR
COurt at south Bend Didn't Need His
Testimony.

Governor Mount yesterday returned from
South Bend, where he was summoned to
appear as a witness in a criminal prosccu-
ton against West, a recently released con-
vict, charged with bank robbery. The Gov
ernor did not testify in the trial, but left
such records bearing upon the prisoners
case as could be found in his Office All
that he did could have been done by a
messenger. and while he felt that it was
something of an imposition to call on him
to leave his official duties and perform a
long journey with only trivial object in
view he went out of respect to the court
from which the subpoena had been sent.
On his arrival in South Bend Colonel Mum,
of Chicago, the leading counsel for the
defense, met him and apologized for the
sending of the summons, which, he said,
was done by the local attorney in the case
without his knowledge A meeting of all
the attorneys and the judge was held and
the Governor was promptly released from
having to testify. The court and the coun-
sci seemed duly impressed with the fact
that the Governor had been imposed on
ana tried to make all the amends possible.
The Governor said yesterday that his visit
was a very pleasant one.

DEAF AND DUMB GIRLS GRIT.
Emma Baldwin Loses an Arm, but
Kept Her Nerve.

Emma Baldwin, a pupil at the Institution
for the Deaf and Dumb. lost her left arm
in laundry machine early yesterday morn
ing, and throughout the suffering which
followed she displayed unusual grit and
courage. Shortly before o'clock she went
down to the laundry room to fold some
damp clothes, and having completed this
work, she lounged about for a few minutes
before going to the services in the chapel.
The engineer had come into the laundry
to oil the machinery before turning on the
power. 1t was necessary for him to turn
on the power slightly in order to revolve
the mangle machine, used for ironing
sheets, so thu. it could be properly oiled.
Miss Baldwin had evidently rested her left
arm on the receiving board of the machine,
for when the engineer glanced up he saw
the girl struggling with her left arm be-
tween the main cylinder and the rollers.
He promptly reversed the machine and re-
leased her from the torture. An hour or so
later Drs. Lockridge and Fields amputated
the arm, and last night she was resting
easy, While waiting for the doctors She
smiled and in the sign language, with her
right hand, told Superintendent Johnson
that she was sorry she had been careless.

BETTER TO HAVE NO OPINION ON

Governor Mount was asked yesterday
what was his attitude regarding the Maine
disaster. II am waiting for further develop
ments," he said, land meanwhile have no
opinion TO express either regarding the
cause or the consequences of the casualty
l believe thoroughly in the old Roman
motto: Moderation in all things, and
particularly SO on such occasions as these
1t is to be hoped that the disaster was due
to an accident. However, thorough inves-
tigation may determine the cause and
pending the finding of such an investiga-
ton it is better to have no opinion at ALL"
But supposing, Governor, it is proven
beyond a doubt that the cause was an
external one, that for instance it was oc-
casioned by torpedo placed under the
ship?''
That may seem a plausible theory" re-
Piled the Governor, "but even if it is devel-
oped that such is the fact, the next uues-
ton te determine would be as to who was
responsible. 1t might have been some Of
the Cuban insurgents who were overanx-
ious to bring on a war, and it may have
been some irresponsible Spaniards who
acted without the knowledge of the Span
ISL authorities and whose actions would be
wholly repudiated by their government

STATE IS NOT SATISFIED
WILL PROCEED AGAIN NEXT. WEEK
IN VERSAILLES LYNCHING CASE.
Some Strong DenOuernent Expected
ment Received PhilOsophically.

The news of the adjournment Of the grand
jury at Versailles without returning any
indictments against the lynchers was re-
ceived philosophically by the Governor and
attorney general yesterday. The report
current last week was that Mr.. Ketcham
would this week perform some coup that
would stir Ripley county up as it has never
been stirred before, but this report proved
to be mere conjecture. Mr.. Ketcham not
only had no such move in contemplation,
but if he had he could not have carried it
out because OF illness. He has not been
seriously sick, but sufficiently so to confine
him to his house for several days.
''Mr. Ketcham, what is going to be done
now?" queried a reporter.
The attorney general looked little bored,
this question having been put to him quite
frequently of late, but he did not hesitate to
render a semi-official opinion regarding the
way in which justice is administered in Rip
ley county.
Though" he continued, "some people
may think so. things are not as stagnant in
the attorney generals office as they were in
the pool of Sloan, and think that next
week the people of the State will have am
pie proof Of the fact. / would like to have
the pleasure of telling the gentlemen of the
press what may be done, but there has been
too much said already in the papers, If
there is any possible way of bringing the
lyncherS to justice it will he carried out.
The State may be unable to accomplish
anything, but it will be clearly shown to
the people that it has not been for the want
Of effort on it's part"
The state authorities have been waiting
for the action of the grand Jury, and now
that it has adjourned without returning in
dictments and the inability or unwilling
ness of the local officers to cope with the
case is clearly shown, some denouement is
confidently expected. Several methods of
procedure have been suggested to the Gov
ernor by the attorney general, but nothing
can be learned regarding them except that
they are of a courageous character. The
attorney general says he has not fully de-
termined how far the State may go in the
case, but thinks 1t is highly probable that
next week will tell the tale.
Judge Willard New, presiding at Yer
sailles is being talked of extensively as the
Democratic nominee for the place now filled
by Judge Hackney. AT the Democratic love
feast some weeks ago his name was fire.
quently heard. and 1t is probable that the
opposition to Judge Hackney on account of
his financial views will center upon the
judge of the Ripley circuit. 1t is expected
Ripley county will send a delegation to the
Democratic convention to back Judge New.

LIFE INSURANCE BANaUEr.
Difference of Opinion Between Aud
itor of State and a Speaker.

At a banquet held in this city Wednesday
night, given by agents OF non-Indiana COM
panies, one of the speakers made the fol-
lowing statement in speaking of the In
diana law. as reported in the Sentinel, that
voluntary depositing with the auditor of
state of any sum of money is no protec-
ton to policy holders, for the reason that
they can voluntarily withdraw at any time
they see proper"
The auditor of State the Hon A. C.
Daily, does not agree with the speaker,
as is shown by the following letter, writ
ten to a policy holder of the State Life
Insurance Company on Feb. IL:
Dear Sir-In reply to yours of the 9th
inst. the State Life Insurance Company,
of this city, has deposited with me- as
auditor of state, securities which l have
approved, to the amount of 100000. These
securities are represented in first mort
cages and certificates of deposit and ]
am satisfied that they are all safe in
vestments. This deposit was made under
the provision of Section IS of the act OF
March 3, 1897, under which the above
company IS now doing business. i think
under this law the company is not en-
titled to withdraw these securities SO when
they We're deposited ] gave them TO UNI
derstand that they would not be permitted
70 withdraw them. except upon an order
of court Very respectfully.

LOCAL "wAR" SITUATION.
Indianapolis Preserving n Most Con.


sentative Temper.
The explosion Of the battle ship Maine
was the most engrossing topic discussed
everywhere in the city yesterday. Words
We're temperate as rule and the discus
sions indicated more curiosity than feeling
ON the subject. Every man wanted to know
the latest news when he met a friend. and
whether DIT had been decided that the ex-
plosion really was an accident or was
caused by a torpedo cast by enemies of the
United States 1t became noised about that
General Bragg had telegraphed the Presi-
dent to declare war with Spain and in
vestigate afterward." This sentiment met
an echoing response in some hearts, Judging
from the comments on it. There were 9TH
ers, however, who remembered the news
OF the firing on Fort Sumter and the call
Tor troops that was the beginning of the
horrors and disasters of war. IF you ever
went through a war, boys" said an old
man. you would not be so Indifferent as
you are TO suggestion that war be de-
clared." The old man said this when he
heard young fellow say:
wouldn't 1t be picnic If Mckinley did
declare war against Spain?"
Others rldfculed the idea of war declaring
that it was undoubtedly an accident that
caused the disaster. Spain did not come
IN Tor all the blame from those who be-
heve that the explosion came from the out
side of the vessel. A good many were sug-
costing that the Cubans might have re-
sorted to such a dastardly trick expecting
to throw the blame on the Spaniards, per-
haps thereby precipitating a war between
the Dons and Yankees. Now and then a
man might be heard asking his friends if
they wanted to join his company.
Where are you going, to Klondike?'
asked one who had evidently paid little at
tention to the disaster.
mo, to Havana replied the would-be
recruiting officer with a look of disgust.
ITO Havana? Where's that2 What chu
goin' there for?"
Don't you read the papers? We're going
there to lick those bull-hghters for blowing
up the Maine"
Guess I'll stay here in Ind nap'lis." said
the other, indolently.
