Germans Admire Our Railroads.

American railways. especially roadbeds.
rolling stock and passenger stations are
spoken of in the highest terms by the Ger
man experts now visiting in this country,
they being civil engineers of the Royal
Prussian railroads. They are instructors
in the Berlin Technical Academy and are
here as special representatives Of the gov
eminent with instructions to inspect close
ly American methods. The two experts
visited England, but America is the main
objective point AS far as they have gone
as one of the better American roads, while
Herr Glease thinks the four-track section
of the New York Central along the beau
tiful Hudson is most wonderful railway.
The two are now travelling over the Penn
sylvanla and the Baltimore & Ohio and say
that either is superior to anything in Ger
many. They praise the American block
signal system, but express the opinion that
1t is inferior TO the German method.

in AN OLD RECEIVERSHIP
JUDGE MINISTER ATTEMPTS TO
sTRAIGHTEN OUT THE CASE.
One Set of Attorneys Represented In
terests Dramatically Opposed to
Each Other.

In the Superior Court Judge McMaster
yesterday morning made an effort to
%straighten out the receivership in the case
of Udell against the Indianapolis Wood Or
nament Company, that has been hanging
IRE in the courts since last October. The
company was formed along in the eighties
and the capital stock was to be $4,000.
The affairs of the company became in
volved and Uden brought suit in Judge Nc
Masters court for the appointment of a
receiver to get possession of certain real
estate occupied by the company. Harlan
& Harlan were his attorneys and Hayden
w. Watts was appointed receiver. and the
same attorneys were to represent him.
Later the holders of mortgages against the
property OF the Ornament company brought
suit in other rooms Of the Superior Court
through the same firm of attorneys. The
mortgage holders claimed that the stock
debts, as the stock of the company was
never fully paid in, and that the property
of the company was not sufficient to pay
the liabilities. TIL receiver has done
nothing to collect such stock liability.
The court yesterday called the attention
of Harlan & Harlan to the fact that by
representing the receiver and also the other
parties TO the suit they were representing
parties whose interests were adverse and the
firm readily agreed. Accordingly, the judge
appointed John 8. Weaver and John NJ.
Wall to appear for Watts, the receiver.
Harlan & Harlan continue to represent
Udell.
he crippled condition of the d
was for the most part caused by Carl Nor
rison, who 1t is said absconded with about
$500 of the company's money, most OF the
capital stock that had been paid in. AT the
time of his departure he was a ~stockholder
and ali officer of the company.
1t is expected that the matter will be
settled in the near future.

DUNN VERDICT is UPHELD
ALLEN COUNTY MAN MUST SUFFER
LIFE IMPRISONMENT.
The Supreme Court Sees No Reason to
Interfere with the Judgment of
the Lower Court.

The Supreme Court has affirmed the
action Of the Allen county court in fixing
a penalty of life Imprisonment for Charles
Dunn. who was convicted Of the charge of
numbering Alice Cothrell at Wallen, Allen
county. The evidence as reviewed by the
Supreme Court showed that Dunn was a
man of considerable wealth, with an insane
wife. He is about sixty years old. His al
legged victim was ten years old. The last
time the child was seen alive was when she
was going toward Dunn's barr shortly
after he had gone there.
Neighbors heard screams which they
thought were in the direction of the barn,
and shortly afterward Dunn came out and
appeared TO be agitated. Five days after
the disappearance the child's body was
found in Dunn's cistern under the floor OF
his Kitchen, and evidence showed that in
the meantime he had carried water from
the pump of a %neighbor. Physicians thought
they could detect indications of violence on
the body that decomposition had partly de-
stroyed. Judge Bowling, who wrote the
opinion, held that there was no ground
whatever for the claim that the verdict was
contrary to law or evidence.
