roy Alexieff's Application.

Washington, April 21.-The an
nouncement from st. Petersburg Of the
withdrawal of Admiral Alexieff from
the direction Of the affairs Of the far
east, together with the story Of the
rise and fall Of the radical element in
Russia headed by Alexieff and Bezo-
brazoff, was received with great in
terest in official circles here. The
change Just indicated is believed to
portend q complete reversal Of Rus

lieved that could Russia save its face
and pride before the civilized world
by scoring a decisive victory on land

No Action Taken About Relieving Alexisff.
St Petersburg, April 21.-So far as
can be learned NO action has been
taken in regard to Viceroy Alexieff's
application to be relieved Of his duties.
Indeed, 1t is not oficially admitted
that such an application has been re-
ceived. Rumors of the viceroy's ap-
preaching return have gained wide cir
culation, but further than admitting
the fact of the existence of unfriendly
relations between the two men, the
oficial world did all in its power to
discourage the idea that Vice Admiral
Slrydloff's appointment to command
the Russian feet at Port Arthur could
lead Admiral Alexieff to take a hasty
step. Ekrydlof himself has had q
long interview with the emperor and
It is considered probable now that the
situation is the subject Of public dis
cussion, that q way may be found to
smooth matters over for the present,
in order to preserve appearances.

Rising Sun, Ind, May 11.-Oscar
Jones, one of the jurors in the Giles
pie trial was excused on evidence that
he was relative of the defendants.
This morning was spent in argument
on motion Of allowing Shay for de-
fense that McMullen and Henry
Spaan be not permitted to assist the
prosecutor.
Judge Downey overruled the mo-
tion to shut out McMullen and Spaan
from the prosecution Of the defense
and then moved for a discharge from
custody of all defendants on the
ground that they had been put in
jeopardy by the acceptance Of a jury
to try the case and now to put the
eases before another jury would be
putting them twice in jeopardy. A
long argument was made on the mo-
ton.

The report was circulated about
town last night through the medium
of one of the evening papers about a
peculiar discovery that was made in
reference to some Of the tax returns
in Wayne township for the past year.
The affair was not the discovery of a
reporter, but was found by the proper
officials and was being discussed in
the treasurer's private Office yester-
day when reporter happened along.
The whole affair is deplorable, and
1t was not the intention to make pub
lie talk out of it, but since one news
paper has published it, the truth had
better be known. The facts are these.
About 700 assessment sheets have
been tampered with in such a way
that the figures have been increased,
in some cases as much as ST 900. How
this was done or why it was done, is
a matter Of the gravest conjecture.
At some time the assessors Office was
entered by some party or parties and
the assessment sheets changed. The
assessments sheets were turned over
to the treasurer and auditor. as is
the custom, and the amounts changed
accordingly. The surplus money thus
collected has been distributed pro

rata, the state treasurer receiving
his share. 1t will now devolev upon
County Treasurer Spekenhier to go
to indianapolis and explain matters
to the state treasurer. Warrants
will have to be issued in each over
charge, the books will have to be
corrected, and the whole affair gone
over before it is Strengthened out
All the officials who handled these
sheets are innocent, and the extra
labor and worry comes to them as a
reward for being painstaking and
worthy. 1t was trick Of the mean
est kind, and it is safe to say the
perpetrator will never say he did it..
There is no punishment too great for
a person who will deliberately enter
the private office of an official and
garble the records. The officials
about the court house deplore the un-
fortunate occurrence, anl it was not
their intention to give the matter un-
due publicity, hoping that the matter
could be adjusted without the public
being worried about the matter. No
one but the county and state could
gain anything by such a move, and
the only motive a person could posi-
bly, have would be spite work.

CYCLE Thieves
Two More Boys Brought Into
Court.

Two young lads were ar
rested for stealing bicycles
from a Mr.. Frank Cooney, the
paper hanger. The boys at
tended Wallace's circus, and,
after the show, became very
tired and decided to take
couple Of wheels that weren't
"working'' and ride them
home, and, if the wheels suit
ed, keep them.
They suited all right, for the
boys kept them until the po-
lice found out they had them.
The boys were arrested and
the wheels recovered. The
young fellows were aged thir-
teen and fourteen respective
ly. One of them cried piteous-
ly and told Superintendent
Gormon that he had learned a
lesson that would do him good,
while the other boy was not,
apparently, so tender-hearted.
The superintendent acted
wisely in giving both some
good advice and letting them
go on their future good be-
havior.

THE OLDEST
RED MAN
Is George L. Weast, the Regu-
lar Night Mail Clerk at the
Peen. Depot.

The oldest Red Man in the
Estate Of Indiana lives in this
city, although this fact is un-
known to many. The bearer
(of this honor is George L.
Weast, the night mail clerk at
the Pennsylvania Depot. Mr..
}Weast performs hisduties regu-
! larly and enjoys good health in
! spite of his age. Indeed in a
I way Mr.. Weast is quite a cele-
brity. The Sun mentioned last
y night that a Whitewater man
'}was the only living veteran
'Iof the Mexican War in Rich
}mond. This was false, as Mr..
Weast served throughout the
y Mexican War as a private and
X was a lieutenant in the Civil
|} War. During the Mexican
Z War he was on the staff of
y General Zachary Taylor and
Twas a personal friend of the
|}General, eating and drinking
(} with him. Besides being the
y ,ldest Red Man in Indiana
y Mr.. Weast is a Mason and one
x of the oldest of that order in
N Indiana. His memory of the
Nevents of the two great wars IS
Nstill clear and when in a remin-
y iscent mood his tales Of life
