STORES AT THE ARSENAL
MAJOR sHALER MAKING ARRANGE
MENTs FOR THEIR REMOVAL.
There VIII BE Twelve or Thirteen
Carloads-Gossip About Ar
senal's Future.

1t was learned last night that Major
Charles Shaler. commandant of the United
States arsenal, has conferred with freight
agents of various railroads concerning the
removal of the stores in the arsenal build
ings. Major Shaler could not be reached
last night, but several of the railroad men
in question admitted that they had been APP
preached on the subject. A representative
Of one of the large trunk lines, who re-
quested that his name be not used, said
that he was informed there would be about
twelve or thirteen carloads of goods to be
removed from the arsenal, and that part
of the stores would be taken to the Frank
fort arsenal at Philadelphia, and the re-
mainder TO the Rock Island arsenal.
The suggestion was offered that the fact
that everything in the arsenal buildings is
to be removed tended TO indicate that the
government does not intend to use the
arsenal grounds or buildings for military
purposes. A Washington dispatch recently
stated that Major General Miles had recon-
mended that the indianapolis arsenal be
converted into a battalion infantry post
and this Information was received with
great interest locally. Several military
men were seen last night and asked for an
expression on the subject. They were
unanimous in declaring their belief that the
removal of the stores has no bearing what
ever on the future use of the arsenal.
1t is my understanding said Capt. l..
S. Welborn. a retired army officer living
at the Columbia Club. that the stores that
are in the arsenal buildings are none Of
them modern. and therefore l should say
that their removal could have no possible
bearing on the future of the place. IL an
infantry battalion were to be stationed
at the arsenal the companies would bring
their own guns, ammunition and stores
supplies
Captain Welborn added that personally
he dld not believe az army post will be
established here. giving as his reasons that
the arsenal grounds are not large enough
to supply a drilling place for a battalion,
and that there is no range for rifle prac-
tice within sufficiently easy reach. This
idea was strongly coInbated by other mill
itaTy men, who asserted that the evenly
five acres belonging 10 the arsenal are
ample 10 provide a fine drill ground for
an infantry battalion. and. they said fur
Their, that as 20 the rifle range. the men
might be transported or marched to the
range at Fort Thomas, near Cincinnati.
just as Is done in the case of the soldiers
stationed al Columbus, O.

CHICAGO. July S.-Delightful weather

race. On his account he drifted TO 20 TO

six turlongs and then Egyptian Prince

AFTER A GRETNA GREEN
ATTORNEY GENERAL TO
GATE AT JEFFERsONvILLE.
Merrill Moores VIII Go to that City
tistics Based on
the Industry.

JefersonvilIe's Gretna Green. that has
hourished almost without interruption for
years until IL has assumed large proper
lions and become a state scandal. is
doomed. according 10 a dispatch received
here last night The dispatch stated that
the people who are connected with the
runaway marriage business of Jefferson
vile have become apprised that an investi-
CATION of their methods is shortly TO be
commenced by Attorney General Taylor.
This discovery has. it is said, created great
CONSERVATION.
AS showing the magnitude Of the mar
riage operations of Jeffersonville it is
stated that last year the county clerk
issued over LOO licenses, most of which
went 10 couples residing outside OF this
State. The town has for years been a
Mecca for clipping lovers from the Ken
lucky side OF the Ohio river. 1t is said
the destruction of the business would mean
TO the county clerk of Floyd county an
annual loss of from 81, 200 to 1850. to the
clergymen and magistrates from 5000 to
$500 a year and to the runners who
procure marriage licenses for clippers and
direct them TO justices of the peace or
ministers from $1.5CO to $500.
Attorney General Taylor appeared great
~ disturbed when shown the dispatch re-
ferred 10. Il am sorry anything has been
said about that" he exclaimed.
rs IL true that you are contemplating an
Investigation of the AFFAIR." Mr.. Taylor
was asked.
Yes. 1 have had it called to my atten-
ton" he replied with reluctance, but the
communicated referring to it reached me
about the time began to look into this al
legged insanity trust and l have not yet
had a chance TO investigate the Jefferson
vile matter"
When pressed for further information,
Mr.. Taylor finally admitted that his as
%sistant. Merrill Moores. will go 10 Jeffer-
sonville to-day to begin probing the Gretna
Green that exists there and of which ne
has received complaint.
An attorney called attention to the mar
rtage-license law, which provides that no
license shall be issued to a couple unless
the woman Is a resident of the county in
which the license is issued. The law says,
further. that II the man or woman seeking
the license is under twenty-one years of
age they must obtain the consent of par
ents or guardians, or IL there are no par
ents or guardians, the woman must have
been a resident of the county for thirty
days prior TO the application for license.
The charge Is made that perjury is COM
United frequently by persons applying for
marriage licenses and by runners but il
for this and that he has. made every eff
fort TO uphold the law. The dispatch from
Jacksonville stated that conditions in that
city have reached such a state that the re-
spectacle people of the city will welcome
an Investigation that will put an end to the
lax methods with which the marriage law
IS enforced.
