Cessna Coal Company sells tho beat Coal MOTORS NOT SUCCESSFUL RAILWAY Mill DISAP-POINTED IX TESTS Chalrmnn (Joddnrd fiiven Power to Brine C. T. A. Itonda Into Line on Hate 3Iatter 1'ersonnl Notes. Although statements published have led to the opinion that the New York Central had finally found a motor which would enable it to dispense with the use of steam locomotives in hauling trains through the Park-avenue tunnel, such not the case.

Superintendent A. M. Wiatt, of the motive power department, frankly states that no motor operated by electricity, compressed air or hot water has met the requirements essential to the adoption for the purpose mentioned. The best performance has been made by a compressed air motor, which hauled a Pullman car eleven miles and barely escaped being left on the track away from its final destination. The best it could do in the way of speed was twenty-five miles an hour.

The fatal objection to electrical motors is that they require a third rail, which is out of the question in a great switching yard like that of the New York Central. Motors with storage batteries are on the market, but their power is not sufficient. The railroad company will, however, continue its experiments. IMwin 13. Katte, of the englneeiing department, says: "We want to keep the locomotives out of New York, and are not now looking for a motor to haul trains to Albany.

What, we want 13 to equip tho road with motive power to bring the train in from Mott Haven, and so obviate tho running of engines through the tunnel. I hardly think we can look for development of a motive power other than steam no far as Albany." Union Hallway Mcetlug. The general managers and superintendents of tho roads comprising the Union Railway Company held their regular monthly meeting yesterday. J. J.

Turner, general manager of the Vandalia, was Fe-lected as chairman. The chief matter before the meeting was what improvements should be made to the properties the present season.

He was instructed to ascertain the cost of new rails, and also to ask bids for three new engines for the Belt road and be prepared to report at the next monthly meeting. Mr.

Zion was given authority to employ three men as usheru to carry valises, packages, between the gate and trains. Mr. Woodford' Explanation. president Woodford, of the Cincinnati, Hamilton Dayton, denies all knowledge of any proposition to dispose of that property to some other railroad corporation or system. He also says that the number of the company's small stockholders is rapidly increasing, and to an increased demand for the stock In Cincinnati was attributed whatever strength it had shown.

Certain banks in that city have submitted propositions for the refunding of the company's bonds as authorized by the directors, but the officers do not think there Is any occasion to hurry, though recognizing that the present is a desirable time in which to make the necessary arrangements.

Some Peculiar Feature Other Cases in the Courts. Yesterday the time of the three Superior and the Circuit Court was taken up in hearing damage sults.

In Room 1 of the Superior Court was the suit of Charles A. Have against Eugene Cooper for $3.000 damages. He alleges that one of Cooper's employes knocked him off his wheel at Monument place and Meridian street with his team. In Room 2 was tho suit of Robert Squibb against Kingan Co. for injuries alleged to have been received by falling into a subcellar in the company's I plant, where plaintiff was employed.

In Room 3 was the suit of Mercia Whlto against Conrad Schlcrs for $2,000 damages. She alleges that Schiers ran over her with his buggy. The suit in the Circuit Court was that of Stapleton Crutchfield against the street-car company for $10,000 damages. Crutchfield Is a negro, and where he is not bald his locks are white. He says he ia about eighty-four years old and came to Indianapolis two weeks before the assassination of Lincoln.

In the South he was a slave. In this city ho has become a public character by driving about town with a wagon, hauling ashes and picking up litter. A year ago, as he was crossing Illinois street at Michigan street, hid wagon was struck by a car. He says his wagon was broken, his horso Injured and himself bruised and crip-pied. The horse was old and slow, and it is charged in one paragraph of the complaint that the motorman willfully ran into the wagon because the horse was not able to pull the vehicle as rapidly as a younger animal might.

As a result of injuries he says he received it is claimed that ho has lost the use of one arm. Attorney Latta, for the street-car company, was cross-examining the negro, when he said: "Mr. Crutchfield, please show the Jury the bump on your head that was made in the accident." At this Crutchlleld unconsciously reached his arm up and over the top of his head and pointed out the bump to the jury. The request was so innocent on the face of it that no one thought anything about it, but when Crutchlield complied with it its meaning was apparent and there was considerable amusement. TWO SUITS FOR DIVORCE Drought by the Same Woman at Same Time Against the Same Man.

A peculiar situation developed yesterday in the divorce suit of Susie Brewer againrt her husband, Albert C. Brewer. Recently she filed suit for divorce in the Circuit Court through Attorney Dickey. It i3 raid lhat this was by an arrangement with her husband, who promised to pay the exponse getting a divorce. Later, the woman consulted Groninger Groninger, and a few days ago they filed a limilar suit in the Superior Court, without knowing that one was already pending in tne Circu't Court.

Brewer has several hundred dollars in the bank, and the last suit asked lor a restraining order to prevent him from drawing 1.1s money. The notification was the first Brewer knew that his wife had filed suit In another court. Monday Dickey and Brewer went before Judge Leathers and asked that th t-uit be dismissed. Tho judgo refused, ana Brewer and his attorney then had his wife sign an agreement, whereby Brewer was to pay hl3 wife $12 month as alimony. This was done without consulting the Gronlngers.

The agreement entered Into by Dickey, Brewer and his wife was shown to the Judge, which wasconsuered sufficient grounds for dismissal, but Groninger Groninger were allowed their attorneys' lees. A WOMAN'S TOIVGLK. She Excoriated the Judge After He Had Shown. Leniency. Frank Smith, charged with burglary, entering a car to steal, petit larceny and receiving stolen goods, was sentenced to the wotkhouse for seven months yesterday by Judge Alford, of the Criminal Court.

Smith's wife, who Is blind, was in court, with their child. The defendant's mothar was also present. Judge Alford was about to sentence him to the penitentiary, as Smith ha3 been in trouble before, when lie observed the condition of his wife ind 1ft him off more easily. When he pronounceJ the sentence Smith's mother arose from her chair and said In scathing terms that the sentence was unjust. Judge Alford finally checked her-and said: "Maaame, if you don't curb that temper of yours I will send you to the place where your son Is going." At thi3 the woman quieted down and Smith was led out of the courtroom.

A Verdict for $1,500. George B. McNeal, who brought suit against the Pennsylvania Railroad Company for damages for the 'loss of a leg, was awarded a verdict for $4 3(0 yesterday. Tho company attempted to show that the boy was In the habit of on cars. THE COURT RECORD.

SUPREME COURT. 18893. Hatfield vs. De Long. Huntington C.

C. Reversed. Uaker, J.l. If property rights are Involved In the decision of an ecclesiastical Judicatory the recular courts may generally be called upon to determine the controversy. 2.

Where only ecclesiastical questions, such as those of doctrine and discipline are in ifue, the decision of the spiritual court is final, and will be accepted as conclusive by the secular courts. 3. A person, on becoming a member of a church, agrees that the church shall be the exclusive judge of his right to continue. 4. For the purpos of trying a member on charges of having violated the rules of the church or the laws of God, the church Is the tribunal created by the organic law; and a member has consented that, for all spiritual offenses, he will abide the judgment of the highest tribunal organized under the constitution of the church.

5. Whether or not an ecclesiastical court fca been organized in conformity with the constitution of the church Is not an ecclesiastical question. 6. As an unlawful expulsion from a church will effect the standing In the community of the person expelled and accomplish an injury for which there Is no adequate remedy at law, injunctive relief is tho proper remedy.

Adjutant General Smock, department commander of the Grand Army of this State, received a general order yesterday, Issued by the department commander of Colorado and Wyoming, petting forth the conditions under which the national encampment was invited to come to Denver, and which were accepted.

The chief cause was the rate of 1 cent a mile, which had been procured from the local railroads running into Denver, but no contract had been made with the Central Association and this the commander-in-chief of the army required. When this could not be Riven the encampment was taken to Cleveland. In his orders he says: "Your department commander requests that no action be taktn or resolution be passed in regard to the above matter, but as soldiers you fhould obey the orders of your com-mandery."
