A Dreary Scene.

With all of the grandeur, which could
not help but inspire the onlookers with
awe, the scene Of the fire Is a dreary
place today. Excepting the Dagget
barn and the Epps property on the cor
ner of Marion and Second streets
there is nought left of the buildings
which occupied the half block yester
day. The carcasses' of the eight horses
which persisted in the flames, add 9
pitiful touch to the whole.

Horses Turned Loose.
Words can not describe the heroic
work done by volunteers and the city
police, who, while the fire was raging
at it's height, at the risk of their lives
engaged in the work of rescuing the
horses from the stables. At the time
the fire broke out it is said that there
were 20 head of horses in the Fleener
barn, 10 head in the Darner stable and
so head in Daggetts' livery. Tomorrow
being sale day at the Fleener stable
larger number of the animals than
usual were in the barn. In the DarneT
stable were number of horses be
longing to people who drove in to at
tend the chautauqua, while at the Dag
gett barn were the horses belonging
to the livery and horses of private
owners who stable their horses there
fiendish rapidity, the smoke and heat
filling the nostrils of the animals, the
dumb beasts stamped and snorted and
trembled with fear. In the Daggett
stable large numbers of the animals
| were rescued ana as soon as the open
air was reached were turned loose or
the streets. In some instances the
horses were so terrified that it took
| strenuous measures to drive then
from the burning stalls.
One horse belonging to Leo Stevens
gave considerable trouble, but was fin
ally rescued by Ed. Daggett and Johr
Christie By taking blanket and GOV
ering the animals head it was induced
! to leave the barn.
The work of rescue was going on il
the other stables in the same manner
and soon the streets were filled with
loose horses running wild and seekins
places of safety. Eight horses coult
not be reached and these were con
sumed in the Fleener stable.

FROM DOWN
The STATE
Telegraph News by Direct
Wire from All Over
Indiana

Indianapolis, Aug. 24.-The discov-
cry by the investigating committee OF
an old, musty record in the auditor OF
states Office has revealed the exact
nature Of the shortage OF James II.
Rice, who was auditor of state from
1888 to 1887. And this discovery shows
a curious state of affairs. proving regu-
larry faccounts for seven-eights Of
the time that Rice was in Office. and
showing frregularity for one period OF
six months during the four years that
Rice served.
Was Short $11, 900 in Bulk.
Some time ago 1t was announced
that the investigating committee, with
Warren Bigler, the auditor, had found
that there was a shortage Of about
81 900 in Rice's settlements of insur-
ance taxes with the state. This was
ascertained when the amount received
by Rice from the insurance companies
was compared with the amount that
actually found its way into the state
treasury. A comparison of these two
sums showed that Rice turned over to
the state about $1,000 less than he
received from the insurance compa-
MES.
Book Shows the Details.
This shortage, as then discovered.
was a shortage in gross; in other
words, it was not definite as to time
or company. The book just found sup
plies these details, and shows that for
seven six months periods Rice paid in
office from January, 1888, to Deem
Der. 1856. and it was for the six
months ended in July, 1884. that the
shortage occurred. How 1t happened
there is no solution.
States Appeal Is Filed.
The appeal of the state inthe French
Lick and West Baden gambling cases
has been filed in the supreme court by
Attorney General Miller The appeal
is from the ruling of Judge Thomas
BuSkirk. of the Orange county circuit
court, that the facts stated in the quo
warranto proceedings were not suf1i
cient to warrant the appointment OF
| temporary receivers for the hotel com
panies and an injunction against gam
bling and also from his decision that
the state had not proceeded in compli
ance with special acts to which ht
ruled, procedure was limited.

St Petersburg. Aug. .24-There is
great alarm in Jewish circles in Rus
STA over developments at Sledlce, Po-
land, where events seem to be shaping
up for the outbreak OF a 'pogrom" SIM
liar to that at Bialystok. The develop
ments parallele almost exactly the
prellminaries Of the Bialystok mas
sacre. a long series of revolutionary
and terroristic signs has been attrib-
uted by the police to the Jews, culmi-
nating-as was the case of Bialystok
= in the assassination Of the chief OF
police, Goltseff. The funeral Of Colt
self yesterday was the occasion of
great demonstration by the Russian
population. The condition Of feeling is
shown by the refusal Of Goltseff's
widow to receive a wreath sent by a
Jewish society as a mark Of its disap-
prevail of the assassination.
| Very Much Like Bialystok.
A similar incident occurred at Bialy-
! stok 1t now develops that after the
explosion of bomb in a street of the
! Hebrew quarter, which, according to
/ the official explanation, was accom-
panied by revolver firing from four
Jewish houses, the troops opened a gen
eral fusillade in which seven Jews and
one Christian were killed and many
wounded. Thirty-three Jews We're ar
rested on the spot on suspicion of CON-
plicity in the bomb throwing and fir
ing. The Jews in a panic are now flee
ing from the city. Siedlce is in the
province of the same name, which ad
joins the province Of Grodno, in which
Bialystok is located, and the two cities
are about sixty miles apart.
Peasantry Goes on the Rampage.
Aside from the province of Stavropo
the northern Caucasus agrarian situa
ton is now more serious in the prov
inces of Poltava and Vladimir, where
the peasantry is INDUCING in the Gus
tOmary pillaging and destruction Of er
tates and incendiarism, employing TO
the latter purpose PHOSPHORUS, will
