BROAD RIPPLE ROMANCE
GOVERNMENT BONDS FIGURE ExTEN-
sIVELY WITH CUPID's AFFAIRS.
Pretty Miss Bremmerman at Last Con-
sents to Become the Wife of
william Foley.

After several years of ardent courtship,
William Foley. ffty-fve years old, has won
the hand of Miss Mary Eta Bremmerman,
twenty-one years old. Government bonds
play a happy part in the romantic affair.
Mr.. Foley's home is across the street from
Mrs. Bremmerman's house, at Broad Ripple.
Many parties have dined on delicious fried
chicken served in Mrs. Bremmerman's
pretty home. The place has been the des-
tination of many a coaching and wheeling
party. Those who have been fortunate
enough to gather around Mrs. Bremmer-
mans board have not failed to remember
Miss Bremmerman, the daughter OF the
hostess. The presence of Miss Bremmer-
man has always added to the pleasure of
the dinners. for she is indeed a very pretty
girl.
OF course, the guests at Mrs. m
mans dinners have not known that Miss
Bremmerman was sought in marriage by
Mr.. Foley, the elderly gentleman over the
way. Mr.. Foley once lived in this city and
practiced medicine. At Broad Ripple he is
reputed to be a wealthy man. His actual
wealth has been stated many times in gos-
siping circles of the river town, but the
amounts named are so varying that it would
not be consistent to make an assertion which
could not be verified. Mrs. Bremmerman
strenuously and continuously opposed Mr..
Foley's suit. She put her foot down and
declared her daughter should not wed Mr..
Foley. he being fifty-ive and she Of tender
years. Mrs. Bremmerman even denied Mr..
Foley admission TO the house. Though the
state of Miss Bremmerman's feelings toward
Mr.. Foley at that time is not known, Mr..
Foley's admiration did not flag.
Miss Bremmerman became twenty-oDe
years of age last month. Her mother then
acknowledged that If her daughter were de.
termined to be married, nothing stood in her
way, and while her mother still had her
objections to the match. she could not en-
force them. On this point Mrs. Bremmer
man said last night:
In spite OF my objections, Mr.. Foley made
my daughter a very advantageous offer, an
offer of a large sum OF money in government
bonds
How large this sum of money in govern
ment bonds is. the family does not care tc
tell Miss Bremmerman, with q m
able business sense, engaged John l.. Grit
nths as her attorney, and he examined the
bonds TO determine whether or not they were
registered in Miss Bremmerman's name oil
would nave to be sent to Washington to be
registered In her name. Mr.. Griffiths founc
that Mr.. Foley had attended to this little
matter and the bonds were Miss mi
mans. ThlS was yesterday afternoon. TIL
wedding occurred at 6 o'clock in the even
1Eg, and a few friends were present. Just
before the ceremony a fine horse drawine
a handsome rubber-tired phaeton was driver
up TO the Bremmerman door. 1t was a pres.
ent from Mr.. Foley TO his bride.

a G. VOLZ ARRESTED
CHARGED WITH EMBEZZLING FROM
PARRY MANUFACTURING COMPANY.
ConnersvilIe Man Indicted for an Of
Tense Alleged to Have Been Com
mitted in 1895.

Frank c.. volz. vice president of the Rex
Carriage Company at Connersville and a
~ll-kno citizen of that town. was ar
rested Monday night by Deputy Sheriff Nc
Nulty, OF this county, on the charge OF en-
bezzling $500 of funds of the Parry Manu-
featuring Company. Volz gave a o for
his appearance in court and was released.
He was in the city yesterday morning with
his attorney.
yolz was indicted by the last Marion
county grand Jury. He was connected with
the Parry Manufacturing Company in a re-
sponsible capacity for eight years, leaving
the concern in September, 1895. The indict-
ment against Volz asserts that he was
credit man" for the concern and had full
charge of the collection of accounts in IN
diana n Illinois. 1t is charged that after
embezzling the funds of his employers he
covered up the alleged wrong for a consid-
cradle length of time by making false en-
tries in the books of the concern. 1t is
claimed that the embezzled funds were col
lected on Sept. 9, 1895, for. goods sold in
Bloomington, Ill. The indictment sets up
the charge that Volz made entries on the
books Of the company tending to snow that
the $500 Bloomington account had never
been collected. Volz, it Is averred, dld TINS
TO deceive his employers, knowing that they
referred to their files from time to time.
In doing this, il is alleged that Volz ad-
dressed letters from time to time to Harry
A. Dooley, an attorney of Bloomington, H.,
urging him to collect the $500 account which
volz had already collected and appropriated
to his own use. 1t is charged that Volz took
letter press copies of these communications
but never mailed the original letters. The
indictment alleges that the company relied
or the books kept by Volz for
relating to the adjustment and collection
of claims. 1t is charged that Volz at no
time intimated to the Parry Company that
he had collected the $500 Bloomington &C
count.
II Is claimed that ii was only within the
last few months that the Parry Mahufac-
turing Company discovered that this money
had been collected. Attorney Conner. a Con-
nersville lawyer who came here yesterday
with Mr.. VolZ, says the latter went into
the carriage business at ConnerSville snort
ly after he left the employment OF the
Parry Manufacturing Company. He went
Hull, both of whom had formerly been EN-,
ployed by the Parry company. They formed
what Is known as the Rex Carriage Com
pany. The Connersville lawyer says the
company has been carrying on a large pus-
mess and has been selling to people who

STORY OF JOHN r. M'LEAN.
Incident of the Friendship Between
Him and James G. Blaine.

The candidacy OF John R.. Gle for the
governorship Of Ohio recalls the fact that
probably no more intimate friendship has
ever been In Washington than that between
him and James G. Blaine. While always
opposed in politics each had the most ar
dent admiration for the other and they
were almost inseparable. An interesting
story was told by General A. V. Rice or
this friendship. General Rice formerly rep
resented the Ottawa district of Ohio in
Congress. He is a one-legged veteran of
the civil war and during President Gleve-
lands administration was pension agent at
the Columbus, o., agency. Previous to
holding this office General Rice represented
his district. in Congress for several terms.
After he had been retired he visited Wash
ington and John r. Mclean gave a din
ner in his honor at his ~palatial Washington
home, to which it was expected that only
the Democratic members of the Ohio con-
gressional delegation would be invited. 1t
was understood that the dinner would be
for the Democratic members of Congress
from that State only and the invitations
were accepted accordingly. All the guests
were present at the appointed time. but Mr..
Mclean continued the conversation in the
QIdNlUS IOOlu dilu Tx uOai sdPpOihNCN LII
the dinner was reached and passed. Mr..
Mclean paid no attention to the hour set
for the dinner, but continued the CONVEX
sation in the drawing room and finally. an
hour and a half after the time set, Mr..
Mclean arose and led the way to the dim
ing room. When the guests had seated
themselves they found that one place was
vacant. General Rice occupied the seat to
the right of Mr.. Mclean, but the place to
his left was vacant. All the Democratic
members of the Ohio delegation were pres
ent and it was not understood who was in
tended to occupy the vacant chair. Several
courses had been served, when Mclean was
seen to suddenly rise from his place at the
head of the table and the guests looked
down the drawing rooms. These rooms were
so arranged that one opened into the other
and made a long room, so that the last
was the dining room. As these Democrats
locke down the room they saw James q.
Blaine coming down the rooms and they
leaped to their feet and cheered again and
again. Although Ii was a private dinner. .
said General Rice, 'it was one or the most
remarkable tributes / ever saw paid to any
living man. Those men stood at that table
and cheered again and again. Mr.. Blaine
came in and greeted each one n then sat
down and finished the dinner with us. Ii
afterwards developed that the cause of his
delay was that ne rendered his resignation
as secretary of state. There was not a man
around the table who had any idea that
the cause Of his delay was resigning his posi-
ton as secretary of state, but that was IL
and il was for Mr.. Blaine that the dinner
had been delayed"

EMINENT DOCTORS E r
the Convention of OBJ
stetricians and GynecoIogists.

The opening session of the convention of
the American Association of Obstetricians
and Gynecologists, which meets here this
week, was held yesterday morning at the
Hotel Denison. DR.. Ill, the president, called
the assemblage to order at 10 o'clock. Among
those attending the annual convention are
many or the most prominent physicians in
the profession, many of whom enjoy inter-
national regulations as practitioners and
authors. A man famous throughout the
country as the author of the Inch incision
n evanescent scar" operation for appendi-
citis is DIR. Robert T. Morris, OF PhiIadel-
phia. His records, cleaned from a long rrac-
tice in treating appendicitis, nave come to
be considered as authority. He is RESPONSE
bic for the statement that 1900 persons die
annually from this disease. In a published
resume yesterday of one hundred consecu-
tive operations DR.. Morris stated that the
death rate has not exceeded 2 per cent. of
the cases operated upon. His books and
essays, dealing thrusts at old-fashibned
methods in medical and surgical science. are
productive of much discussion. DR.. l.. s.
McMurty, an eminent physician Of Louis
vile, is also present. He studied under
Tate. the antagonist of antiseptic practices,
and was held by him in great esteem. The
life of Tate was presented to the associa-
ton in a paper read by DR.. c. A. L. Reed,
the ex-president of the Pan-American Med
ical Congress. DR.. Reed is the most bitter
pponent Of Christian science who has yet
entered the field Of medical literature.
DR.. Ill, the president of the association,
discussed the subject OF 1.-THE Rights of the
Unborn" in which he considered the mod
ern tenement house and its effect. Among
the other ~ell-kno practitioners OF the
country who are attending the convention
are Drs. John b. Murphy, A. N. Ferguson,
Nicholas Sem and Christian Pfenger, all OF
chicago. DR.: Murphy is known as the in
ventor of a button" employed in cementing
the parts OF a severed intestine. DIR. Tod
Gillian represents Ohio. His latest achieve
ment was the successful removal of a tumor
weighing 116 pounds from a woman whose
weight was only one hundred pounds.
DR. ii. Dunning, or this city, and DR..
w. II. Myers, OF Fort Wayne, represent
Indiana in the association. Yesterday the
latter discussed surgery as applied TO the
gall bladder and Bile ducts. The association
preserves a high standard for membership.
original research in the fields of obstetrics
and gynecology have brought them distinc-
ton. There are now seventy or eighty mem
bers. half of whom were present at yester-
days twelfth annual meeting, held in the
assembly room OF the Hotel Denison.
At 10 O'Clock when the president. DR.. III,
opened the meeting Mayor Taggart well
comeo the visitors and was followed by the
reading OF the paper as scheduled for the
morning. The afternoon was similarly oc-
cupied.
The association was entertained last night
