VIII III. Craig. of Noblesville. was at the
Denison Hotel last evening just after the
trustees Of the Boys Reform School had
completed their discussion over the ap-
pointment of a man to succeed Col. T. j.
Charlton as superintendent OF the institu-
ton and had announced the selection OF
Mr.. York.
"WelI. l guess they nave made a wise de-

ought 10 be eminently fitted for the place.
i consider Colonel Charlton one of the best
men In the country to be at the head of an
institution like the Plainield Reform
School.
tinued Mr.. Craig. reminds me OF a funny
incident In which he once figured. Every
body that knows him knows that he is a
man OF pretty fair size physically. Well.
there Is a fast train that goes through
Plainfield without stopping at the station.
and on a certain occasion Colonel Charlton
wanted TO board that train. In casting
about for a method by which he might get
the train to stop for him he hit upon the
Idea OF sending a dispatch TO Greencastis
requesting the train To stop at Plainfield. as
"A large party wanted TO get on. When the
train came 10 a dead halt at the station the
conductor looked all around for the party
he expected to receive and finally ejacu-
lated, Where the deuce Is that large party
the operator said would get on here?
why, here L am, called out Colonel
Charlton. with one of his most benevolent
smiles. Amt / a large enough party to
suit you? When the conductor surveyed
the superintendent ample proportions and
looked into his kindly face he had to laugh

MISS KELLY APPOINTED
THE UNANIMOUS SELECTION OF THE
BOARD OF MANAGERS.
Cora Wilson Succeeds Anna Dunlop rs
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Appli-
cants for superintendent.

AT a meeting of the board Of managers
of the Industrial School for Girls and
Woman's Prison, held at the home of Mrs.
John b. Elan yesterday afternoon, the
following officers We're elected for the ensu-
ing year:
Observation-Disclosures F. Keely.t
Assistant OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES Pray.
Secretary-Cora Wilson.
Physician-Dr. Martha Smith.
All of the officers elected. with the ex-
ception of Miss Cora Wilson, who takes
the place of Miss Anna Dunlop as secre-
tary, succeed themselves.
The reappointment of Miss Keely meets
with general approval, and is in the nature
Of a second vindication of the charges pre-
ferred against her during the session of the
last Legislature. 1t will be recalled that
an attempt was made by certain Demo-
cratic senator's of the last General Assem-
bly, to make political capital by filing
sensational charges against the manage
ment Of a number of state institutions,
and then demanding an Investigation,
which they fervently hoped would be denied
them. Among the institutions which they
demanded should be investigated was the
lnuuSlIidl ScHOOi LOT 1lTiS ana woman ;
Prison. Miss Kelly was accused of crimes
little less than monstrous, and a senatorial
ommitte was finally appointed to inquire
into her conduct as superintendent of the
institution. The committee, which was
composed of three Republicans and two
Democrats. after hearing an endless
amount of testimony, returned a unanimous
finding to the Senate generating Miss
Keely from all charges that had been
made against her. Owing to the investiga-
ton, a rumor became current that Miss
keely intended to resign, and as a result of
this report the board of managers of the
institution has been flooded with applica-
tons for the position.
Altogether there were more than twenty
five applicants, each of whom had more or
less influence, and the board has done little
else during the last three weeks except
consider their petitions. Miss Keely, fol-
owing her usual custom, did not put in
an application for the appointment, and the
ofice comes to her entirely unsolicited.
She has been superintendent Of the institu-
ton for fifteen years. and enters upon her
sixteenth year as the unanimous choice
or the board of managers. The board de-
clined to make public the names of the
other applicants for the SUPPLEMENTARY.
Miss Susanna Pray, who was reappoint-
ed assistant superintendent, has occupied
that position at the institution for nearly
twenty years. and is said by the present
board to be an efficient officer.
Miss Cora Wilson, the new secretary,
succeeds Miss Anna Dunlop, whose time
expired last week. Miss Wilson was for
merly stenographer under John B. Conner
during his term as state statistician.
DIR. Martina Smith. reappOinted as ply
stefan TO the institution, enters upon her
fifth year, this being her fifth consecutive
appointment. She resides in this city.

HEAD AND ARM CUT OFF
r.. f. HOPKINS. 4 BIG -FOUR SWITCH
MAN, KNOCKED FROM A CAR.
He Fell on the Track and Was Run
over by n Switch Engine
Former Injury.

r. f. Hopkins, a Big -Four ~switchman,
who lived at $40 Fletcher avenue. was in
stantly killed at $40 o'clock last night at
Benton street and the Big -Four tracks.
He had been employed in the west yards
of the Big Four, known as 1.-THE hOrn." and
was riding on a cut Of cars which were
being taken 70 the eastern yards. Over the
tracks at Benton street is a foot bridge so
low that trainmen must stoop when pass
ing under it 10 escape being knocked off.
The trainmen nave been bothered consid-
erably by boys jumping on the cars by
hanging from the bridge and dropping on
to the moving cars. Hopkins saw a num-
Der of boys along the track. and, thinking
they were going TO get aboard, got up
from the place where he was sitting and
started for the ladde at the end of the
car. Before reaching the ladder he was
knocked from the car by the foot bridge.
The car from which he fell was the last
car in the string, and he fell on to the
track. He was stunned and bruised, and
before he could get up was run over by a
switch engine which was following closely
and running faster than the train he was
on. His head was cut off by the wheels
and his right arm was cut OFF above the
elbow.
He died instantly, and his body was
picked up by the train crew and taken in
the City Dispensary ambulance to the city
morgue.
Hopkins was ffty-two years of age and
had lived here for twenty years. Ten years
ago he was crippled by being knocked from
a train at Noble street in a manner similar
to that which caused his death. This was
before the Noble-street bridge was raised.
Two years ago he was crushed by being
between the side of a car and a
shed. He was then offered a position I'm the
local offices, but declined to accept. He
was a member of the Masons. Indianapolis
Council. No. .. Knights of Pythias, and
the Red Men, Hiawatha Lodge, No. IS. He
leaves a widow and one child.

President Mitchell Here.

President John Mitchell, Of the United
Mine Workers.. returned from Scranton,
Pa, yesterday, where he supervised the
negotiations between the anthracite miners
and operators. He said in the settlement
the miners made an advantageous cOnces-
SION. as IL allows the operators 10 treat
with committees representing the miners
instead OF individuals. This points TO rec
IGNITION of the union. he said. Before leav-
ing Scranton President Mitchell instituted
criminal libel proceedings against the
Scrantonian, a newspaper OF that city
which. il is alleged. attempted to weaken
and disrupt the miners organization
Secretary Wilson said yesterday that
there is no truth IN the report that there
has been a general suspension OF work ia
the Indiana mines over the price of powder.

To have such internal factions that a
Cabinet crisis continues for months with

why a nation should cultivate amicable
relations with its ~neighbors. Such a rule,
however, will not apply to Chile, the pugna-
cious Republic OF South America. Dis
patches show that 1t is uncompromisingly
at odds with other Republics.
Chile now has two serious quarrels on its
hands. One is with Bolivia and Peru, from
which It seized two Provinces. Tacna and
africa, as surety for a war Indemnity. Now.
although the other Republics are ready to
pay the Indemnity in full. the coast Re-
public declares the Provinces will not be
restored. and SO gives Bolivia the choice of
rsuqoining an inland nation or of going TO
va to get a seaport.
Not content with this. however. Chile has
4notner dispute with Argentina over the
yAndean boundary. Chile holds that the line
runs from high peak to high peak. which
would give her control of some OF the rich

declares that the boundary runs along the
backbone. Of the Andes.
Attempts have been made for years to
submit these questions to arbitration, but
Chile has always made conditions that have
prevented adjudication. Other Southern Re-
