THE BRIBERY IN INDIANA
Republicans Alleged to Have Ap-
preached Democratic Officials.
Prominent Mckinley Leader Already
Under arrest for Making a Progo-
sition TO ar Election omciaI-De-
termination to Prevent Corruption
at the Polling Places Tomorrow.

INDIANAPOLIS. Nov 5.-WIlliam H.
Evans. a prominent Republican ard the
custodian Of the Commercial Club, is IN
der arrest. Five other warrants for
local Republican politicians have been is
sued The Democratic managers say they
will cause wholesale arrests of Repubii-
csIi bribeEs throughout the State today.
The specific charge on which the arrest
of Evans was based was the sworn state
ment Of George F. Kuhn, a Democratic
judge Of election in the first precinct of
the Tenth Ward. He alleges that Evans
offered him $50 TO count twenty-five Demo-
cratic votes for the Republican ticket
Parks M Martin, Chairman of the Dem
oeratic State Central Committee, claims
that his agents have accumulated evidence
that similar bribes have been offered
Democratic election officers throughout
the State. The committee claims to have
information in its hands that will result
in wholesale arrests throughout the State
during the day.
In q statement issued last night. pre-
vious to the arrest OF Evans, Chairman
Martin foreshadowed the exposure of
frauds in the following guarded language:
I'VE are perfectly familiar with certain
carefully prepared, but less carefully
guarded, plans of the Republican manag-
ers in the various counties of the State
for the criminal use of money. We know
how they propose TO use il and the men
who have been selected to handle it. We
know that there have been efforts to tam
per with the honor of persons chosen to
serve as election officers, and you may
make it as emphatic as you please that
we are organized to make rascality in the
election room next Tuesday the dearest
business any man ever engaged in in Indi-
ana. The election cannot be bought or
stolen from US We are prepared TO Pro
tect the vote as it is cast"
Mr. Evans said today that Charles J.
Meyers, carpenter, who made the aecus-
ing affidavit. has made repeated efforts to
sell out his precinct to the Republicans,
and that 1t is upon these efforts that the
affidavit is based Republican leaders de-
nounee Evans arrest as a campaign trick
and declare that the charge will not be
pushed after the election.
Democratic managers say that evidence
over Endiona and Republican leaders are
sccused of being in a huge scheme to re-

WEST HAVEN

The selectmen Of Orange held a spe-
cial meeting Tuesday afternoon to hear
the petition of the Fair Haven and
Westville railroad for permission to lay
an extension of their tracks, from the
present ending at West river to Forest
street. The proposed new section of
track is to be double from West river
to point little beyond st. Lawrence
cemetery and from there to Forest
street a single track.
]. X. Punderford represented the rail-
road and said that the extension Of
track would call for layout of be-
tween $4,000 and $4,000 That the COM
pany would derive no special benefit
from it and it was simply to comply
with the request of the managers of
the Yale foot and baseball teams and
residents of that section, of whom there
are but few, and they have hitherto
walked from the West river bridge to
their homes.
Fathers Russell and Kennedy appear
ed in behalf of st. Lawrence cemetery
and Managers Hixon and Eliason for
the Yale foot and baseball teams re-
spectively. The property holders in
that section We're present to the NUM-
Der Of eleven persons. None appeared
to oppose the extension.
The selectmen would not give a de-
cision as they intend to personally Wis
it the section for the proposed extern
sion in order to thoroughly investigate
the matter "
