SLAV PUSHED HUNGARIAN
LATTER RESENTED 1T AND USED A
LONG KNIFE EFFECTIVELY.
Frank Grabner Severely Cut I'm an Af-
fray with Three Men in Haugh-
ville-Arrests Expected.

Frank Grabner, a Slav, living at III
Haugh street, was stabbed during a row in
Haughville last night and was taken to
the City Hospital in the Dispensary ambu-
lance in charge of DIR. Crockett. Grabner
stated that he was walking along the street
when three Hungarians, who work In the
Malleable iron foundry. came along and
shot number of caps off at his feet. He
admonished them to stop. he said, and
pushed one of them away from him. AS
he pushed one of the three stabbed him.
The blade of the knife struck him directly
over the heart, and the wound wsuld prob
ably have been fatal had II not been for
the blade striking a rib An artery was
severed, and until medical attention was
secured II was feared the man would bleed
to death. After being taken to the hospital
the wound was dressed by DR.. Wallace,
who reported the man entirely out of dam
ger at an early hour this morning
Patrolmen Dixon, Tyner, Wilson and
Scribner, on whose beats the cutting affray
happened, were on the scene within a very
few moments after the deed was commit
ted, and Captain Hyland, Detective Asch
and Bicyclemen Hull and Griffin who were
notified by telephone, made a fast run to
the spot where the stabbing took place A
search was made for the three men, but no
clew as TO their whereabouts could be found
last night. They will probably be caught
to-day, however, as witnesses to the af-
fair have been located who know the men.

Will Seward, alias Punk Stewart, and
Fred Kinsley alias Fred Cole, who have

lice that they had stolen a watch and some
money, but the watch and money were not
were locked up at the station.
At the time of the arrest there had been
no complaint as 10 any robbery in which
the men could have taken a hand. and the
police were afraid the court would dis
charge them for lack of evidence. Yester-
day IL was learned that K. E. Bird, an engi-
neer on the Monon Railroad, had been
robbed of watch and $40 in money and an
investigation showed that the men under
arrest were the thieves.
Detectives Asch and Manning fourd that
when the men were placed behind the bars
at the police station they gave the watch
and money to another inmate of the city
prison, who, In turn, gave the booty TO the
turnkey at the county jail as his property.
Mr.. Bird said that he was asleep on a truck
at the Union station a week ago last Sat
urday night and while he was in the land
of dreams some one went through his
pockets and took his watch and every cent
he had. He will go To the police station
this morning TO identify his property.

OR'SLETTER TO CLUB
SUGGESTIONS ON LIGHTING con-
TRACT SHOULD BE MADE SOON.
City Would BE Glad to Have Clubs
Advice, but Time IL Fleeing, the
Mayor Points Out.

Mayor Bookwalter sent letter to the
Commercial Club yesterday informing the
club that ii will be impossible for the city
to wait much longer for the organizations
proposed action in connection with the new
electric lighting contract. The directors of
the club are requested to meet at once and
convey their suggestions to the mayor i'm
mediately. The text of the letter follows:
Some months ago we met at your re-
quest with your committee on affairs of the
city of indianapolis for the purpose of dis
cussing the new electric lighting contract.
Your committee suggested two material
points, viz. :-granting franchise to a new
company and alternative bids on an all
night and moonlight schedules. which were
incorporated in the contract.
subsequently we were invited to meet
with your board of directors, which was
done week ago to-day. The matter was
discussed for several hours, your board
having quorum present, but the meeting
adjourned without any action on your part,
agreeing to meet on the following Tuesday,
June 80. for the purpose of voting on the
two points upon which there was an ap-
parent division of opinion among your
board. viz.-separation of the city into two
sections for separate bids and the revision
of the prices contained in the contract at
wo-and-a-half-year periods. At your re-
quest, made at the meeting, the contract
was to remain in the state IL then was until
these two material points were decided so
far as your board was concerned. which
was expected to be done on Tuesday.
Upon presenting ourselves at the Tues
day meeting, as requested, We were in
formed that IL had been postponed indef-
nitely 1t is impossible for the city authori-
ties TO wait much longer upon your club.
We should be very glad TO have your sug-
gestions on such material points, but must
ask you to arrange a meeting of your di-
rectors that the result of some definite
action can be conveyed to us at your eari-
est possible moment. When these material
points are decided upon, which will practi-
cally require a redrafting of the document,
IL will be rewritten in manifold, so that
everyone interested can go over II in de-
tail. / trust you will accept my suggestions
in the spirit In which fhey are offered. and
that we will have the benefit of your ad-
vice In z very short ums."

BLOODY THIRD OF JULY
FIVE BOYS MORE OR LESS SERIOUS
LIZ INJURED BY EXPLOSION.
What VIII the Fourth Bee Doctors
Are Asking Themselves-List of
the Battle-Scarred.

Beginning early yesterday evening reports
of accidents began to come in to the City
Dispensary, City Hospital and other places.
The doctors look for big days work to-
day.
The first lad to learn that it is not safe
to carry a pocketful of loose caps around
with him, and forget about the caps when
jumping on the end of an express wagon,
is Eddie Montgomery, who lives at the
corner Of Shelby and Georgia streets. Ed
die, full of Fourth of July enthusiasm, and
with his trousers pockets full of caps,
jumped a wagon at the Union Station yes
terday afternoon, but forgot his desire to
steal a ride a moment later. The caps ex-
ploded, burning his body fearfully and his
right hand. which was in the pocket at the
time, was burned until it resembled one
large blister. He was taken to the City
Dispensary by some people who saw the
accident and his burns were dressed by DR..
Crockett
Bradford Clifford, aged seventeen, who
lives at 2122 Martindale avenue, and his six
teen-year-old companion, Lee Dildine, who
lives next door, were frightfully burned last
night while firing off small cannon. The
boys had about two pounds of powder in a
can, and in their excitement, when lighting
the fuse on the cannon, dropped the match
in the powder can. Clifford was horribly
burned about the face and hands, and it is
feared that he may lose his eyesight. Dill
dine was badly burned on both hands and
his face was burned by the powder.
Martin Worth, $50 East Georgia street,
while firing some blank cartridges In a re-
volver yesterday afternoon, forgot about
the hole in the barrel of the weapon and
covered it with his left index finger as he
pulled the trigger. DR.. Cunningham of
the City Dispensary, dressed the injured
hand, but does not consider the wound a
bad one.
Merle Evie. twelve years old. living at
1925 Hamilton avenue, fired a bullet from
a revolver through the thick part of his
left hand last night and caused painful
wound. 1t Is not considered serious unless
lockjaw should result.

He turned away as If to hide emotion,
but really to whisper to Hardy:
you've got me, you villain. If you
tell on me, I'm no better than dead
man."
And this was the basis of bargain
which has resulted in Hardy's painting
Ediths portrait and progressing very
well, as am told. In his siege upon hel

Brockwell came out of the frame. but

To this wicked plot Mrs. Brockwell
consented after much pleading. The
details were hastily but skillfully ar
ranged. AS Il trickster Hardy has no
equal. When all was done, the maid
declared that she would not herself
know it was not a genuine picture.
There was ring and a call through
the tube, and Hardy announced that
Mr.. BrOckwell was coming. 1t proved,
however, to lie Miss Brockwcll, who
came in radiant and CHEEKY.
"Why, where's mother!" she cried,
and then suddenly: "Oh, there's the
portrait, all done. Isn't it perfectly
great! Father can't help liking that,

And she turned to Hardy.
"l'm afraid you don't know your ia

voice. 1t was the picture that spoke,
and the phenomenon nearly frightened
pretty Edith out of her wits. When the
Iuatter was explained to her, she VOW

| And she Joined Hardy in steadying
the resolution of Mrs. Brockwell,
which was beginning to waver. At this
juncture Brockwell himself appeared.
His first remark was almost exactly
the same as his daughters had been,
except that it did not end by the asser-
ton that the picture was perfectly
great" On the contrary, after he had
run across to an art store to look at
some frames, accompanied by a lady
whose name was hastily pressed into
the service, he began to view the sup
posed canvas critically.
'rhis thing" said he, lis total fail

1t was more than even Hardy had

"Just step this way, SIR" said Hardy.
"YOu'll get better light"
He took hold Of Brockwelrs arm and
turned him around. AS he did so he
whispered in his ear:
That's your wife herself, sitting be-
hind frame. For the love of heaven
square yourself"
Brockwell looked for one second into
Hardy's eyes and saw that he was
speaking the truth. He turned pale tc
the gills and then by great effort pull
