VERDICT LATE D


Coroner Tutewiler's verdict. fixing the
responsibility for the wreck of the Purdue
special train. Oct. 81, will be announced to-
day. The coroner said to the Journal last
night that several statements of witnesses
remain to be signed, that he will be occu-
pied for several hours in carefully going
over the mass of information which he has
secured, and that, in all probability, the
finding will not be made public until late
this evening. The coroner stated that he
was anxious TO return the verdict to-day,
but said he would not in all probability be
able to complete his report until late.
1t Is known that the verdict will not up
hold the finding made by General SuPerin-
tendent Van Wrinkle and Superintendent
Paquette, of the Chicago division. in plac-
ing the responsibility on the shoulders of
the crew of the special train. 1t is asserted
that the blame will be placed higher, and
that the testimony before the coroner i'm
plicates others in a more responsible posi-
ton than the employees who were in charge
of the two trains.

AN ERROR
R~eceivership Suit Nothing to Do with
Advance Veneer and Lumber Co.

Veneer and Lumber Co.
In yesterdays Journal the following
item appeared:
Suit was brought in the Superior Court
yesterday by Cyrus c. Barrett against
Elton b. Elliott asking for an accounting,
and also asking that a receiver be appoint
ed TO take charge of the Advance Veneer
and Lumber Company.
The complaint recites that Barrett and
Elliott entered into an agreement on June
z, 1902, TO form a company for the purpose
of buying and selling timber and logs. Bar
rett agreed to furnish the capital for the
company, which was not TO exceed $1,000,
The profits of the company were to be
equally divided between the partners, but
ii was further agreed that Elliott should
defray his Owl travelling expenses when
buying or selling the timber. The agree
ment was TO continue in force at Barretts
option. The company was organized under
the name of the Advance Veneer and Lum-
Der Company.
Barrett alleges that he frequently de-
manded reports of the condition and fnan-
cial standing of the company of Elliott, but
that Elliott has at all times refused TO give
any reports. 1t is further charged that
Elliott converted large sums of the firms
money TO his own use. Barrett alleges
asks that a receiver be appointed"
All reference in the above item TO the
Advance Veneer and Lumber Company was
an error on the part OF the Journal. E.. b.
Elliott never had any connection with the
Advance Veneer and Lumber Company, and
Cyrus G. Barrett has no connection with
that company. The stockholders of the
company are Frank M. Millikan, Harry b.
Millikan, William NJ. Dickerson, j. II.
Hooker, II. r. Bliss and Charles z. Bar
rett. The company is a strong one and one
of the leading lumber and veneer concerns
in the State. The suit of Cyrus c. Barrett
against i. b. Elliott is an action to dis
solve a partnership and in no way involves
the Advance Veneer and Lumber Company,
and this company is not a party to the ac-
ton. The Journal regrets its error and
trusts that the public will understand the
situation.

MRS. CUNNINGHAM in HOUSE.
Bishop John Hazen White Seeks to
Gain Possession of Premises.

Judge Allen, of the Circuit Court, yester-
day heard the suit of Bishop John Hazen
White, of the Episcopal diocese Of Michigan
City. against Mrs. Jennie Cunningham
Bishop White brought the suit before JUS
tice Stout to eject Mrs. Cunningham from
the property located at 422 North Pennsyl-
vania street, which he held as trustee and
which he rented to Mrs. Cunningham. The
justice found for the plaintiff and Mrs.
Cunningham appealed the case TO Judge
Allen.
The property was rented to Mrs. Cun-
ningham Dec. 10, 1900, and she has since
been keeping a boarding house there.
Bishop White ordered her to vacate last
spring and upon her refusal suit was instj-
tuted in the Justices court. Mrs. Cunning
ham allowed the judgment to go against
her in order that she might appeal il to the
higher court for its decision.
Mrs. Cunningham contended that she was
to have possession of the property, upon.the
prompt payment OF the rent. until the prop
erty should be sold. and further that she
was to receive three months notice before
being ordered to vacate. She testified that
she had always paid her rent when il fell
due and as the property had not been sold
she ought not TO be elected.
The other side claimed that there were no
binding conditions to prevent Bishop White
from taking possession of the property
whenever it was thought advisable TO
change tenants.

CHRISTIAN ENDEAVOR.
How May We Help Abolish the sa-
loon .-Eph. vi, 1913.

Our topic sets UP the right goal. We do not
want to lessen intemperance. but end it; not to
suppress the saloon, but abolish it. Christen-
dom will never acquiesce in any other conclu-
sion. 1t is war to the death-to the death of the
Christian church, which is unthinkable. or of
the rum power.
Our topic is not. how the Endeavorers may
do this great work? That would be egotistical,
indeed. But, how we may help to do it; and GER
tainly the young people can help, and should
help. They should be helping far more than
they are.
Our topic includes in the saloon all that the
saloon stands for. II is not merely public and
social drinking that Christians intend to abolish.
but private drinking as well. AS long as there
is one there will be the other, and men who in
sist that regard for private rights require US to
limit our warfare to the public saloon would be
as sensible If they transferred that argument
to private murder. The worst crimes recognized
by the law are the private crimes. but the law
rather. all the more.
There are three things we Endeavorers can do.
then, toward abolish;ng the saloon.
First, we can learn about II. Reforms that
are not based on knowledge are like the surf of
the sea, noisy but transient. Let different men,
bers of the society take different temperance
papers. being called upon at regular intervals
TO give the society the. latest temperance news.
Obtain temperance pamphlets and books, in
Guiding stories, and let a special committee cir
culate them till every member has read them.
Give up an occasional meeting TO an address
by a temperance speaker. especially some public
official whose experience has fired him with a
hatred of the saloon. Form a civic club for the
study Of the temperance question. and especially
of temperance laws and their enforcement.
Second. we can pray about II. We can learn
Gods mind with reference to it. We can get
in His attitude toward it. We can come to hate
1t with His implacable and invincible hatred.
AS our prayers become fired with His shirt
they will become charged with His power. and
will be able for moving others as well as our
selves.
Third. we can combine against II. do not
suggest the forming Of new temperance organi-
cations. unless. as is very likely, your COM
munity is destitute OF them; but ally your
selves with the temperance forces now at work.
And especially throw into this warfare the or
ganized power of the Christian Endeavor unions.
You will begin then TO recognize their great
value. 1 do not mean that your Endeavor unions
should become partisan. adopting this or that
candidate or political organization. but that
you hold frequent mass meetings in the interests
OF good citizenship and band together the En-
deavor voters for hand-to-hand work In aid OF
temperance.
The young people are the churches OF the fu-
ture. II we can unite the churches OF the future
in a combined and determined attack upon the
saloon God Will surely give US the victory.

Dog Roaming mt the Mouth.

Edward Watts, of the printing depart
ment of the Everitt Seed Company, and
Miss Louise Stern, another employe of the
same firm. were slightly injured yesterday
morning while on their way to work by a
dog which was foaming at the mouth and
displaying signs of madness. Watts had
a long cash torn in mis- right limb by the
teeth OF the animal, and Miss Stern was
lightly scratched. Pedestrians rushed madly
to get away from the maddened mongrel,
and a panic seemed imminent, which was
only averted when the dog disappeared up
