MURDERERS OF STOUT
MAY BE IN THE CUSTODY OF GIN
CINNATI DETECTIVES.
The Two Men Answer the Description
~ of stout's Northumberland
from st. Louis,

Detectives William Bullmer and Calvin
Grinsley, of Cincinnati, having in custody
William A. Sanford and Thomas Tully
alias Hanlon, alias Muldoon who were ar
rested a few days ago in ST. Louis, ar
rived in Indianapolis last night. The men
are wanted in Cincinnati for highway rob-
berry and shooting a man with intent to
kill. The men are thought to be the same
ones who held up w. M. Reser on Tues
day, March g. and also the murderers of
John B. Stout on the night of March 10
Several OF the city detectives, accompanied
by Reser, Jesse Deere and Frank Brown,
were at the Union Station last night to see
the men, and Reser said he was positive
they were the same men. Brown, who re-
ported TO the police that he had seen two
men standing in front of the Medical Cot
lege on the night of the Stout murder
thinks they are the same men.
The Cincinnati authorities sent the local
detective department two Bertillon photo
graphs of the men. These were taken in
February, 1898, when both were sent to the
Cincinnati workhouse for three months.
Reser when he saw Sanfords picture said
he was sure he was one of the men, though
the one who held him up had a short
stubby mustache Sanford last night had
a mustache of about six weeks growth.
John b. Stout before his death said posi-
lively that one of the men had mustache
similar to Sanford's. The men also wore
hats similar to those described by Stout.
Revolvers were found on the men when
arrested, and Detective Thornton secured
and examined them under protest from the
men. They were of .32 caliber, the same
as the bullet which caused Stouts death.
Tully has served two years in the Joliet,
ILL.,, and Columbus, o., prisons, and both
men are known as highway robbers. From
what is known of their recent movements
1t is not improbable that they were here
on both occasions They were in st. Louis
March 3, and and in Cincinnati on
March z, and 8, the shooting there being
on March 8. They were again in st. Louis
at p. m March IL and were arrested the
Tuesday following. Detective Bullmer in
talking to Detective Morgan said: II wish
had more time. / could tell you more
about these men, but one thing 1 want to
say is, there's no doubt in my mind but
these are the men that did your job"
Every effort will now be made to learn
something of the men here, and in case
sufficient evidence can be found it is prob
able the Cincinnati authorities will consent
to their being tried here for murder.

COUNCIL COMMITTEES.
A Protest Against AnnexatiOn-Fi-
nance Committee Meets.

Herbert Hunt, b. f. McCready o. M.
Railsback, r. S. McMeans and A. F. Light
met the annexation committee of the City
Council in the city clerks office last night,
to protest against the ordinance taking in
a strip of land about twelve blocks long
and four wide north of Fall Creek and
divided by Central avenue. They object to
the additional taxes that will be placed
upon them on the grounds that there are
not enough residents in the plot it is pro-
posed to annex TO be recognized in asking
for city improvements. The ordinance was
introduced in order that the residents north
Of Fall Creek might share in the expense
of putting in new bridges across the
creek. The committee will meet tomorrow
afternoon to go over the matter and 1t
expects to report at tomorrow nights
Council meeting.
Councilmen Megrew, Evans and Wheeler.
IF the finance committee, held a meet
ing in one of the rooms of the city clerk
office last night TO discuss the appropria-
ton of $500 toward hiring General Harri-
son as counsel. to argue the school bond
case. 1t was decided to hold the commit
tee caucus before the Council convenes to-
morrow night, when report will be pre-
pared. The matter of taxing the gas mains
of the city was 10 have been considered
but ii was deferred until tomorrow night

CASE GOES TO THE JURY
FLAvIUS j. MEYERS'S FATE RESTS
WITH THE TWELVE MEN.
The Charge of Grand Larceny Dis
missed-Divorce Day in the Courts
Other Court Cases.

The case of F'lavius ]. Meyers, former
superintendent of the county poor farm,
charged with grand larceny and embez-
zling county goods, reached the jury short
~ before noon yesterday. Prosecutor Pugf
opened the argument for the State. and
said that the charge of grand larceny
against Meyers would be dismissed, but the
prosecution would rely upon the charge of
embezziement TO send the defendant to the
penitentiary. He argued for a peniten-
tIary sentence.
Attorney w. n. Harding, for the defense
argued that since the charge of grand lar
ceny had been dismissed there remained
nothing against the defendant. He said
that embezzlement could not be held
against Meyers, as none of the evidence
showed that he had attempted to convert
the goods to his own use. He said that
Meyers was willing to return the goods al
any time, and that he had right to store
them wherever he pleased.
Prosecutor Pugh closed the argument
with brief speech on the penalty that
should be attached for the offense, and
Judge Afford instructed the jury in writ.
ing. When court adjourned the jury was
still out.

BOWLING LEAGUE PARTY
THE INDIANAPOLIS LEAGUE AT THE
LYRA CASINO ALLEYS.
Hon. John l.. Grimfhs Makes a Brief
Speech-Averages and Stand
ing of Clubs.

The members of the various teams In
the indianapolis Bowling League met last
night at the Lyra Casino alleys to enjoy
a stag party as a fitting wind-up of the
leagues championship season. The alleys
were fittingIy decorated and a small stage
was erected over the alleys. Three rows
of long tables were laid parallel with the
hall at which the members of the league
were seated while the officials and cap
tains occupied a table near the stage. A
string orchestra furnished music.
Everybody had a good time, as that was
the order of the evening. The entertain
ment was in the hands of a committee
composed of Charles Krauss, Captain r.
H. Bryson, of the Marion team. and Secre-
tary Manifold, of the league. Mr.. Krauss
was selected as POSTMASTER and the first
time he addressed the crowd he stated
that for those who did not and could not
partake of the amber liquid that had been
provided in such ample quantities there
was plenty of pop on hand. 1t is hardly
necessary to state that the latter was not
in great demand. The men were all seated
and had partaken of refreshments when
the chief speaker of the evening, Hon. John
L. Griffiths, was ushered in. His appear
ance brought forth a storm of applause
which was deafening. He was escorted to
the table at which the captains of the
league were seated. When Mr.. Griffiths
was introduced he was again greeted with
cheers. He said:
II did not come down here for the pur-
pose of making a speech and as 1 look
over this gathering 1 can plainly see that
you do not care for lengthy speech. Sit
ting at the table with the captains of the
league / feel that my record as bowler
does not entitle me to that honor. This
gathering is a representative of good cheer
and good fellowship. 1t seems to me we
get a great deal more out of life If we get
away from our business and spend more
time in health-giving Notwithstanding,
fishing and bowling. There is great ex-
element in bowling contests and there Is
one wish / care to make and that Is that
each member of this league while going
through life shall make a ten-strike with
plenty of spares, and further that there
may not be an obstacle which he can't
bowl down. In conclusion, / want to pro-
pose that the Indianapolis Bowling League
may have long life and great prosperity.
The remainder of the programme of en-
tertainment was varied, consisting OF
songs, limitations, dancing, etc. A lunch
was served later in the evening, and IL
was quite late when toasts were proposed
to the health of the league and it's pros
perity in the future. The prizes won dur
ing the season just closed were awarded
to the winners.

A SECONDHAND DEALER
IL Put to Flight by the Boys Cluf
Managers.

The ladies who are conducting the Boys
Club 'rummage SALE are very DESTROYS of
receiving donations of mems, women's and
children's clothing, old shoes, etc. They
think many merchants could send them un-
salable stuff. The clothing is bought at a
nominal figure by worthy poor people to
whom 1t is boon, and as the money re-
ceived for it is for the benefit of the Boys
Club, worthy charity, the ''rummage
SALE works a two-fold benefcence.
Yesterday the women in charge put to
flight an insistent 'old-clothes mana Sec
cnd-hand dealer-who was Fostering them
for bargains. He was shown the door and
requested not to return. The women would
rather dispose of the articles donated to
poor people at a nominal figure than allow
them to go to secondhand dealers. The
sale will be on this week.
