Various are the explanations that are
offered as TO the immediate causes OF the
general slump in stocks which has recently
carried down several leading firms of brok-
ers i'm New York, and one\ theory appears
TO be quite good as another. One IA
vorite theory Is that the decline is the re-
suit OF a conflict of the bulls and bears in
Wall street. and that the violent reaction
will be followed by a speedy and complete
recovery. What upsets this explanation is
the fact that the decline has been too gen.

Special to the indianapolis Journal.
LAFAYETTE, Ind, Aug. 13.-Red Men
from all over the State were here tonight
and participated in the parade of Red Men
and others. The parade was the crowning
event of the entire carnival and the thou
sands who lined the streets cheered and
applauded. Accompanying the Red Men
were all the visiting bands, Battery and
many of the city officials. The march was
made through the principal streets. The
rain this afternoon had a dampening eff
feet on the spirit of the carnival, though
the crowd this evening was large and en-
thusiastic. Professor Conners, of Indian
apolis, started last night TO make regular
trips from the Main-street bridge to the
water below, and thousands lined the banks
at each performance. The carnival man.
ayers say the affair is a huge success.

naturally makes it's influence felt in
the bookstores all over the country
Another hardship which the retail deal
ers are laboring under at present is the
difficulty in securing able assistants as
clerks and bookkeepers. The number
of young men who find their way into
the bookshops as apprentices is becom-
ing less every year. If their training
has been such as to give them a good
literary knowledge of the book trade
in general, they prefer to find employ
ment in the publishing houses, where
they enjoy shorter hours and better
wages. A ruinous rival of the re-
tail book dealer in Germany is the de-
partment store, which has been es-
tablished in all the large cities of the
Empire. These large establishments
use books as advertising matter, and
often sell them at a price below that
actually paid to he commission agent.
In small towns many bookbinders sell
books of every description as a side
line, which increases the difficulties of
the retail dealer. The opinion prevails
in well-informed circles that the re-
tail bookstore in Germany, exclusively
as such has seen its best days.

Macon, Ca, Sept. "a sensation has
been created here by the sermon
preached last night the East Macon
Baptist church by Rev. j. ID. Hillyer,
one Of the most eminent Baptist divines
in the south, in which he upheld lynch
law, declaring that II was much more
like the administration OF Gods law
under Moses than the present jury sys-
tenn In vogue In this country with "its
n~ever-ending appeals n delays"
Mr.. Hilyer declared that the present
methods of the courts do more to pre-
vent the enforcement Of laws than 10
enforce them and that under them
there is no surety of any mans being
punished for a crime. He also spoke of
the great tendency Of ~pardohling
boards to forget a mans crime when
worked upon for reasons of political
interest. In closing he said:
I'm a time like this we need TO re-
member that we are servants OF the
most high God, that he has placed us
here in a free country, M that he has
committed to us the making and the
execution of the laws. 1t is impossible
for us to separate our religious n our
civil duties. Ia our country the people
make the laws. They feel that this
maladministration is wrong, that it
does not represent their will. Ordinar-
lily the people submit, but when n OF
these crimes, q crime that can hardly
be defined, Is committed, the people
cannot always wait. They will not al
ways walt. And who is to blame? This
crime under the mosaic law was pun
ished with death, and there seems to
have been no city of refuge provided,
but the avenger slew the offender.
