STOLE HORSE AND BUGGY
TWO MEN DRIVE AWAY IN FINE RIG
RENTED BY GEORGE JUNE.
Both Arrested and Held in Heavs Bail
Horse Found Jaded and
Buggy Wrecked.

Morris Corners and companion named
Albert Munce, who lives at 626 East Louis
lana street, were arrested yesterday after
noon on a charge of grand larceny, and are
held at the police station on bond of $1,000.
The two men, it is claimed stole horse
and buggy valued at $500, the property of
Frank Beck, the liveryman, at 25-9 West
St. Clair street, and. after beating and
driving the horse until it was worn out
and breaking the buggy to pieces, left the
rig standing on street on the outskirts Of
the city.
The horse had been rented for the day to
George June, the restaurant man. Mr.. June
hitched the horse in front OF his place of
business, on Illinois street, and went inside
the restaurant for a moment, but when he
came out the horse and buggy had disap-
peared. No trace of it was found until
early in the morning, when one of the city
policemen picked the dilapidated rig and
the jaded horse up in the outskirts of the
city and drove it to the police station.

MAN HUNT in THE HILLS
ARTHUR LYONS PURSUED BY A sHER-
IFF'S POSSE OF 100,
Is Dcfying All Martin County
Threatens to shoot.

Special to the Indianapolis Journal
LOOGOCTEE. Ind, June THE pursuit
of Arthur Lyons. the youth who shot and
killed his stepmother. Mrs. Addie Lyons.
Friday evening at Killion. Martin county,
has developed into a veritable man hunt.
All day Sunday Sheriff George w. Hols-
apple, OF Martin county, secured the county
with a posse of one hundred men, and
while the chase was unsuccessful up to
nightfall it is believed young Lyons has
been surrounded in the hills twelve miles
north of this place, and that his escape has
been effectually cut off,
Lyons has served notice on his pursuers
that he will not be taken alive. and that
he expects to kill at least two more persons
before he is taken. Last night young man
named Marshall saw him near the West
Union Church and talked with him. To
Marshall the threat was made that Lyon
would die resisting capture, and that he had
two more victims marked. Lyons is known
to be armed with two revolvers and Win
chester rifle, and as he has served In the
regular army and is a crack shot. the Off
GERS realize that his capture without sacri-
ficing their lives. or seriously endangeriHg
themselves will be practically impossible.
The murder and the pursuit of Lyons has
developed an incipient neighborhood feud
in the locality where the crime was COM
mitted that bids fair to have serious re-
suits. 1t is known that the young man has
been aided by some of his relatives. and
that they will do all In their power to pre-
vent his capture. The relatives of the mur-
dered woman have taken umbrage at this
and threats of violence have been exchanged
between the factions.

FLOOD LOSSES IN KANSAS.


KANSAS CITY. Mo-. June 7.-Kansas has
suffered as a result of the recent floods more
than any other State. No exact figures OF
the loss sustained can, of course, be given,
but those who have an intimate knowledge
of the sections submerged and the extent
and force of the floods have been making
estimates, and the conclusions that they
have reached may be considered fairly re-
liable. The damage done In the principal
cities and towns is estimated as follows:
North Topeka, $3.50 900; Lawrence, $4,000;
Salina. 10000; Manhattan, $4,000; Wame-
go. $4,000; st. Mary's. $4,000: Blue Rapids.

tine, 100000, and Kansas City, Kan. and
suburbs. 100000
No account has been taken of the smaller
towns although nearly 200 of these were af
fected by the floods.
The very lowest estimate that can be
made of the loss done to crops is s5.0O0,0OO.

SAMUEL CLICK ARRESTED
CHEF CLERK OF MESSING OFFICE
NABBED BY DETECTIVES.
Charged with Completely I'm Railroad
Ticket Frauds-Evfdence Secured
Against Brokers Under Arrest.

AS the result Of the raids made on the
Messing and Meyberg ticket broking offices
Saturday afternoon by Captain Gerber, De-
tectives Colbert, Hauser and III. A. Roach,
assistant superintendent of the Pinkerton
National Detective Agency. four men in
all have been placed behind the bars at
the police station. All are now out on
bond, however.
Samuel Click. chief clerk of the Messing
office, was placed under arrest by the de-
tectives yesterday afternoon, charged with
the offense of uttering forged and fraudu-
lent instruments. The detectives claim that
they secured sufficient evidence from the
offices of the ticket scalpers to prove be-
yond all doubt they have been extensive
ly engaged in the business OF forging names
to passes, redating and changing the origi-
mating point and destination, issuing
fraudulent and improper tickets and beat
ing the railroad companies in every possi-
bic manner.
A MONKEY" FOUND.
In the Messing office was found among
other things, an instrument known to the
experts on railroad ticket iniquity as
monkey" 1t derived the name from the
fact that the dishonest scalpers use it i'm
attempting to make monkeys Of the rail-
roads. The monkey is a simple device
for redating the tickets so that they will
pass as good after the time limit has ex-
pired, and, Ii is Sad is found only where
the motives of the owner are dishonest, as
ii is known that the changing or altering
of tickets in any way is much against
the law as it is TO change any other in
strument.
Many valuable pieces of evidence were
secured, and all will be produced at the
trial of the brokers now under arrest The
railroads claim that the ticket scalper is
self-apponted agent, and has no legal
rights. The statutes of the State of Indiana
provide a penalty for the illegal sale of
railroad and other tickets, and il is said
that the business of the ticket broker or
scalper is wholly wrong, as they have no
authority to buy, sell or barter for the pur-
pose of personal gain any tickets for pass
age on railroads or other conveyances.
GET-RICH-QUICK SCHEMES.
The railroads are not fighting the broker
who conducts an honest business. it is said
but are determined to prevent further
frauds and get-rich-quick schemes by the
use of bogus and forged railway tickets
Several other arrests, it is understood, will
be made within the next day or so. and the
detectives claim that they have an abun-
dance o. evidence 10 have all the brokers
who are conducting dishonest Offices con-
victed in any court where the trial may be
held.
The brokers now under arrest will have
hearing in the city Police Court this morn
ing, but the cases Will undoubtedly be con-
tinued until a later date.

liver the closing address. The programme
will close with reading by Mrs. Fenger
The remainder of the evening will be
spent in the introduction of the distin-
guished guests and the national officers to
the delegates. There will be an orchestral
programme, and the hall will be decorated
with the blue and white of the T. p. A.
in lights and bunting. flowers and palms.
The local post has planned the reception
to be one of the most imposing affairs that
ever preceded a national convention of any
organization in this city.
There will be no lack of amusements pro-
vided for the visitors. The fear is ex-
pressed, on the other hand, that there will
be so many things for them to do that
when they leave indianapolis they will be
but wrecks of their former selves. What
with card parties, receptions, picnics, in
terurban excursions, banquets. balls box
ing contests and vaudeville, there will be
something doing every minute of the time.
The parade, which will be given Friday
afternoon, is expected to be noteworthy.
The national officers will ride in carriages,
and carriages will also be provided for the
ladies. The army of delegates, silk-hatted
and frock-coated, will march on foot. The
parade will leave the clubhouse on Mary
land street about 2 o'clock. and will pro-
ceed north on Illinois to Washington, after
which 1T will follow the usual course
through the business district.
The business sessions of the convention
will be held every morning at the German
House, beginning at 9 o'clock. The dele
gates have some important questions to
settle, possibly the largest of which is the
contemplated revision of the constitution
In addition President Peak is expected to
make recommendations affecting the fu-
ture growth and prosperity of the order,
which Will be acted on.

ACCIDENT AT A PARK
Four Little Children Thrown from a
Merry-Go-Round.
One Fatally Injured and the Others
Severely-COIlapse OF the Machine
Witnessed by a Crowd.

Special to the indianapolis Journal.
EVANSVILLE, Ind, June Tin an acci-
dent at Oak Summit Park, three miles
from the city, at o'clock this evening,
four children were injured, one fatally
The injured are:
HAZEL KOENIG, aged six, badly
bruised about the chest and internally
hurt; will die
SELMA BRINKMAN, severely.
OLGA BRINKMAN. severely.
ARTHUR LUCITTLE, severely.
The last three are expected to recover.
The children, with a number of others,
were taking ride on a steam merry-go-
round. The swing lost control of itself,
and the conductor, Ben Rose. was unable
to check 1t. The revolutions became faster
and faster and faster, and Rose, in his
excitement, picked up the children one by
one and hurled them to the ground. The
little Koenig girl was thrown against a
post and when picked up was more dead
than alive. An ambulance was called and
the Koenig girl was brought to this city
and taken to a hospital. The physicians
say she probably will not survive the
night Her mother Is Frustrated with
grief.
In alighting from the machine the con-
ductor was badly bruised and will be laid
up for several days. Within a second after
he jumped the merry-go-round the ma
chine collapsed. and the seats, horses and
chariots were scattered in all directions
Had the children remained on the machine
few seconds longer ii is probable all
would have been killed.
Conductor Rose is a brother of b. s.
Rose member of the County Board of
Health. and prominent in Republican
politics. Oak Summit Park is owned by
the Evansville Street-raiway Company
and is a popular place. The accident this
evening was witnessed by several hundred
people.
