AGAINST SERVICE PENSION.


At an unusually large meeting of George
H. Thomas Post, G. A. r., last evening,
the committee representing the post on a
general committee to consider proposition
to pay all invalid pensioners a dollar a
day and ether pensioners s12 month. re-
ported that the comrades who had favored
the proposition were not ready to present
1t and also presented figures showing that
the proposed change would increase the an
nual pension charge from $140D0o0oo to $780,
100000 To the end that the position of
Thomas Post on the proposition be under
stood, the committee presented the follow
ing resolutions, which were unanimously
adopted:
Resolved. That pension granted by the
government to veteran soldiers or the army
Of the Union Is not, and ought not TO be,
granted as a compensation for services rem
dered, but as a reward Of honor for gallant
service, wounds received and injuries SUI
fered.
"Resolved That we condemn the efforts
Of pension attorneys and self-interested par
ties In their attempts to prejudice the minds
Of soldiers, to array them against the gov
eminent and to organize a raid upon the
treasury Of the United States, as destruc-
tive of that just pride every true soldier
feels in services rendered his country in
her time OF peril and as inimical to the in
tereSts Of those soldiers who, through
the service, carry with them from day TO
day and hour TO hour evidence in their af-
f1icted bodies Of that great struggle and the
Resolved, That the present pension laws
are eminently liberal to the soldiers and
that the administration Of those laws by the
government is satisfactory to them, and We
sions of the National Encampment to see
that justice Is done to all"

BREWERY LICENSE CASE
Judge Baker May Fail to Agree VITA
the Supreme Court.

Although there has been no decision in the
case Of the Pabst Brewing Company against
the city of Terre Haute. Judge Baker
strongly intimated during the argument
heard by him on Monday that he believed
the ordinance requiring breweries and brew
cry agents to pay city license OF $1,000
to be invalid on the ground that ii Is in
violation of the interState-commerce law.
The Terre Haute ordinance is said to be an
exact copy Of the one in force in Indianap-
oils and which the State Supreme Court
held to be good.
During the course of the argument Mon
day Judge Baker pointedly disagreed with
the decision of the Supreme Court. The
Terre Haute ordinance imposes a license
on those who establish, conduct or main
tain brewery. depot or agency" Judge
Baker said this simply meant storage and
that storage did not bring the business with
in police regulations as provided by the act
OF Congress Of 1890, which was passed on
account Of the decision of she United States
Court in what Is known as the original
package decision. The act of 1890 stipulates
that where liquor is sold 1t comes within
police regulations OF the State.
Judge Baker lntiinated that if the ord-
nance was more srecific he would hold il
good. He said that beer n storage or i'm
original packages did not 90 any harm
and did not come within the police regua-
tons. Attorney Foley. representing the city
OF Terre Haute, argued that the intention
was plain that the beer was brought into
the State for sale. Judge Baker said he
filed and he would then give the matter fur
ther consideration.

TWO UNFORTUNATE WOMEN.


commission composed Of Police Surgeon
Christian. DIR. Kolmer and Justices of the
Peace Lockman and Hay yesterday began
an investigation Of the sanity Of two
women. They are Mrs. Essie Miller and her
daughter Minnie. Both women show indica-
tions of culture and refinement. They form
erly lived at Mansfield. o. They were once
wealthy. Mrs. Miller's husband, who was
a veteran soldier, died in the Hospital for
the Insane at Dayton, 0. Brooding over
her troubles affected Mrs. Miller's mind,
but her condition did not become serious
until a few months ago. A year ago the
women came to this city. They took rooms
at 3l2 North New Jersey street. Miss Mill
er's engagement was announced to a mis-
sionary who was sent TO South Africa by
Roberts Park Church. She began to grow
Respondent after he left and finally aban-
doned her vocation, that of teaching pho
biography. The young woman was on last
Thursday taken to the Union State Hospital
al 1915 North Capitol avenue, where, IL is
claimed, she attempted to kill nurse with
a knife. She escaped from the hospital, but
was taken back by bicycle patrolmen. Then
her mother went to the hospital and de-
manded that she be allowed 10 take her
daughter to their home on New Jersey
street. The threats of the two women
frightened the hospital people and they sent
for the police, who took mother and daugh-
ter away. The commission will probably
conclude its investigation to-day.

of Egypt, by Marriatta, the great archaeoio-
gist, ard consists of a vast collection OF
relics of ancient Egypt Owing to careless
management the museum became run down
ard neglected, and as no catalogue was kept
the collection of relics was in the utmost
confusion and disorder. A few years ago
the English government acting on the prop
osition of Dr.. Borchardt, an eminent Ger
man scientist, authorized q commission.
composed Of one German, one English, one
French and one American scientist, all Sc
lected and headed by DR.. Borchardt, to COM
pile complete catalogue Of the museum.
The work has been going on now for about
two years and the commission has COM
peted forty-five volumes. They expect TO

OF all the facts in regard to the ships of
ancient Egypt. The result Is that person

catalogue find everything known in connec-
ton with the antiquities Of Egypt.

the Commercial Club were present at yes
terday's meeting action on the committees
report favoring the adoption of gas meters
was deferred until next week, when it is
hoped TO have a fuller attendance.
Although the discussion was a short one,
little is known of what happened In the
room. Secretary Woollen refused to make
any further statement than that a better
representation Of the directors was desired
before any action could be taken.
From other sources il was learned that
City Attorney Kern advised that the mat
ter be postponed for q day or two" as
important developments in the solution
Of the difficulty might be expected, and, al
though he would not tell what the Develop
ments were, he said they were important
enough TO warrant the pOstponement Sew
eral directors agreed that, as the city had
taken the matter up, and IL was the proper
agency to act, there was little need of any
action by the club.
IT Is said that the statement was made AZ
the meeting that the gas syndicate had
plenty of gas in the field but refused TO turn
1t into indianapolis mains because of the
unsatisfactory price. but instead piped II

THE LAST OF NEWLY OVAL
1T WILL SHORTLY Re TORN DOWN
AND THE MATERIAL SOLD.
The Track and Buildings Cost $23, 900,
and the Institution Has Never
Paid-ReasOn for Quitting.

The people OF Indianapolis have seen what
viii probably be the last OF cycle racing in
Il is city for many years to come, as, ac-
cording to Herbert w. F,oltz. the owners of
Newly Oval have decided TO tear it down
and sell the material for what It will bring
as soon as the football games scheduled
during this month have been played. The
Oval represents an outlay of $4,000 in it's
construction, together with a loss of s., 800
during the National meet season of 1888, and
q loss of 500 shis year on less pretentious
operations.
The track Is said TO be the best in the
country, being OF boards set on end and
planed smooth. giving an elasticity and run
ming quality not found even on the smooth
cement tracks throughout the country. 1t

meet IN the spring OF 1898. when the out
look for racing was brightest, but 1t never
paid even its running expenses to say moth
Ing OF anything or the investment. 1t was
equipped ON an elaborate scale. 1t being
necessary TO put in over a milo Of water
pipe to connect with the grounds. while
considerably over two miles Of copper wire
was required TO furnish the electric lights.
II is thought that with the present high
prices OF building materials and copper the
grand stand. plumbing and electric appar-
atus will sell for enough to reduce the loss
20 q minimum.
The principal reason for the move Is that
Il has been ascertained that the L A. w.
will probably renounce all control of cycle
racing and give its attention to the social
feature Of the sport. for which it was orig
tnaLIy organized. the moreSo as II Is be-
heved by leading l.. A. w. officials that the
day of racing Is past The advent OF the
motorcycles has Killed all interest in the
game in the minds Of true sportsmen. who
could find enjoyment in the work OF. human

MAIL BOXES BROKEN,
The Postal Authorities Believe a Gang
Is at Work.

About two years ago smooth individual
was arrested In indianapolis by the detec-
tives for opening mail boxes and stealing
valuable mail. This was about the time
when other large cities had TO deal with
the same kind Of thieves.
The postal authorities fear that there is
another plan being worked In Indianapolis
which will take on big proportions in the
stealing of mail IL the matter is not checked
at once and the individual or gang located.
Yesterday the postal authorities notified the
police department that the locks on the
mail boxes at the corner Of Thirteenth
street and College avenue and Twelfth
street and Park avenue had been broken
in a clever manner on Monday night, but
ii could not be ascertained IL any mail had
been stolen. The work might be that of
vandals, but the locks were broken in "A
manner that showed that tools had been
carried for the purpose. When the city was
worked before the gang carried keys which
would unlock the mail boxes. The detec-
tive force and patromen have been or
dered TO investigate the cases.
