THE ISBTANAPOLIS JOURNAL, SUNDAY, MARCH 20, 1892. STRAGGLERS OF TIIE CITY Nearly AH (be Democratic Conncilmen Seem to Daie licen Seen by Frenzel. Clsen and McGofin Confeea to Havine Received Visits from Ilira Honlay Morning More Attended That Cancss. TILL mor developments coma to the surface every day to ibow how firmly the Krenzel collar is buttoned abonv the necks of the Deinocratio members of the Council. Mach has already been said upon this subject, bat it is one in which the people of Indianapolis are vitally interested, lien are sent to the Council to represent the interests of the city and its citizens; cot to strangle every enterprise that comes along, the mission of which is to aftoru ooxn petition.

Enooah has been printed in the Journal heretofore to show that a sufficient number of Democrats promised to support the Broad Ripple ordinance to have passed it with the aid of the Kepabltcan votes in the Council. Even P. Jasper Kyan, chairman of the franchise committee, into whose hands the ordinance was given before it was introduced in the Council, said it was the best contract that had ever been drawn for the city, ana promised to snppott it. That was before the Frenzel noose was thrown about his neck. Mr.

Kassmann also said he intended to voto for it; that was before a portion of the Insurance carried by the Citizens' Street-railway Company was transferred to his agency from that of Robert Zener Co. But these able Democrats soon forgot their promises and when the time came they stood, as they always do. for the monopolistic corporation. The reason is apparent why they changed their minds in' each short order. President Frenzel.

of the street-car company, became alarmed and began to hustle for votes, calling to his aid all the henchmen who would answer the summons. The Journal has already spoken of the Democratic canens that was held in Councilman ltassmann'a otllce, on the Circle, last Monday afternoon, a few hours before the Coancil meeting, at which the liroad lilpple ordinance met such an undeserved death by strangulation. Before that meeting was held, however, there were a lew preliminaries to be arranged in the interest of the Citizens' Street-railroad Company. John P. Frenzel acted as master of ceremonies and performed the humiliating dutis that have heretofore always been executed by ex-Councilman Simeon Coy.

This 'duty" was to visit each Democratic counoilman and try and extract from him tn one way or another a pledge to vote against the Broad Kipple ordinance Fren-xel did his part. An afternoon paper yesterday published an Acknowledgment fronij one of these conncilmen, Mr. McGufhn. that Frenzel called upon him at the place where he is employed, last Monday morning, for the 1ur pose of talking to him about the liroad tipple ordinance. The conversation that occurred between McGuflin and the reporter is given below in part: Mr.

Frenzel wss here monday forenoon, but 1 believe he bad some business with some people In the office, and only talked to me incidentally, fo far as I know, he bad no councilmen with him Did you talk over the Broad Iiipplo fran- I believe that wa mentioned, said Mr. Mc-Gnffln. Did he ask you to vote against that franchiser Dur conversation didn't go that far. Before we had talked a few minutes I cave him to understand plainly my views on that Broad Klpplo franchise' What did jou say yonr views were "I told Mr. Frenzel that It the Broad Ripple franchise was for a term of ten years orincluued the purchasing claue I would vote for its passage.

Otherwise I would not. I tell you it was not necessary for Mr. Frenzel to po so far as to ask me to vote against it. I explained my position just so a to avoid him asking me any such pledge." Last evening a Journal reporter met Ccmnoilman Ulaf Olsen. one of the men who voted against the ordinance.

-What day was it that John P. Frenzel called upon yon at your office!" the reporter as a kind ot a not at that having any absolute proof that Frenzel had called upon Mr. Olsen. "He called at my office last Monday moraine wax Mr. Olsen's prompt reply.

"Did he ask you to vote against the Broad Ripple ordinance!" "1 didu let him get that far (notice how nearly Mr. Olsen's reply tallies with that given by MeUufhn to a reporter for another paper). 1 asked him what he wanted to talc to me about and he said he bad come to see me about the Broad Ripple ordinance. I told him I didn't care to talk to him about that and he left. He wasn't at my office to exceed rive minutes." "Then you didn't vote against the ordinance to please Mr.

Frenzel!" the reporter I asked. "No, sir," said Olsen emphatically, voted the way 1 did because i am not in favor of giving any company a twenty- (ear franchise. Ten years is long enough. Vben 1 said in the Council the other night that the Broad Ripplo ordinance was a good one and ought to be pasted without any amendment it was not because i was xpressing my true sentiments, but in order to set even with the Democrats in the Council who bad treated me shabbily. "Do you know," continued Mr.

Olsen, "that there was big caucus in Rassmann's olriee last Monday "I understood there was a caucus, but 1 thought only the German-Arnqrican members of Council wero there." "Don't yon believe it! There were eleven members there. I was invited but 1 didn't go. Those who were there were Colter, tiauss, La at. McGiil, McUuftin, Itassmsnn, Ryan, Schmidt. White and Murphy.

When those eleven men went into the Counsil last Monday night there was an agreement among them that each one of them should vote against the Broad Kipple ordinance. Kleveu votea would have been enough to defeat the ordinance, as there are but twenty-one councilmen." The scheme outlined in Mr. Olsen'4 interview to strangle the Broad Ripple enterprise was the last resort. The first thing thought of. which emanated from the regions of Mr.

Frcnzel's futile cerebrum, was to preserve a semblance of good faith on the part of the councilmen by loading the ordinance down, with amendments that, if adopted, were sure to kill it, and have his personal organ, the News, claim that they were "safeguards thrown about the city's interests." The spider caucbt all the small Democratic iiies in its web, and the Frenzel collar now chokes the necks of the "faithful" in view of the interesting facts above given, it is again pertinent to ask if the K'ews. with a perfect understanding of the modus operandi of Council, can continue to commend it for the manner in which it performed the strangulation act! Odd-Fellows Entertainment. Canton Indianapolis, Patriarchs Militant, has arranged to give the people ot Indianapolis a delightful entertainment, having secured the Ariel-Thomas combination for a grand concert at the Odd-fellows' Grand Lodge Hall, northeast corner of Washington and Pennsylvania streets. Tuesday evening.

Church. TIIE NEW BALL TEAM. Mr. Brush lias a II igh Opinion of It-No Sunday Games Harrington May Bo the Manager. John T.

Brush returned from Chicago late Friday night, and was seen yesterday about the new ball team. He was as happy over the fact that we have at last got a team, and a good one, as ho is over the very favorable outlook of bis Cincinnati passlo of players. When asked how it coinpaied with the other teams, he said: "Well, it's juBt this way when each manager had picked out his men from the lot. he walked over in the corner and chuckled to himself, saving he had the best team that could possibly be selected. I felt that way, and so did all the others, so it's good we're all satisfied.

We'v got Sullivan, Madden, Carpenter, Clingman, Hengle. and a lot more good men that can put np as cracking fine a game as any man would want to see. Monday there will be a meeting for the purpose of perfecting the organization. '1 he question of a good manaaer will be the first thing to be decided. I have twenty applications, the most of whom are good men, so we won't have to go far to find one to suit us.

Then there are the nniforms to be deoided on, the exhibition games, the improvement of the grounds, the ordering of the players together and a lot of minor details. 1 held open four dates lor my Cincinnati team to play with the local nine. They are: April 8 and 9 here, and 10 and 11 in Cincinnati. There will bo more games to play, of course, before the regular season opeus." "Who will bo the "I can't say. There are several men who are capable lor the place, and have been good captains on other tf-ams.

Hengle is a good man. but I don't know who will be chosen." "What colors will cover their legs!" "That will be determined by the directors, also." "When do the men report for duty!" "April 1. The grounds will be gotten in order in plenty of time, and everything will bo in readiness for the team's reception." "How about "1 understand three have been selected McQuaid, Jones and fcnyder. Who the fourth will be I can't say yet." 'There will be no Sunday games, will there!" "No. Wherever the schedule provides for them they will not be played.

We've ffotaball team in Indianapolis now. and we want the people to support it. It's a good thing for a town and 1 believe it will bo a success." Mr. Brush declined to ea whom he wonld recommend for manager, but current report has it that Harrington, who manaaed last year's Minneapolis team, will get the job. The prospect of some first-class amusement in the way of base-ball is bringing to the front the fact that the electric lines of railway will give some outside parks a chance in the competition for securing the games.

One of these is Monroe Park at North Indianapolis, two and one-half miles from the city, a fifteen minutes' ride on the electrio from Washington street. This is a live-acre piece of ground which the proprietor proposes to greatly improve if he can get the game there. bince the Western League meeting some changes have been made in the make-up of four teams. Ferson, who was drawn to pitch by Columbus, has been, by the sanction of the secretary and players' committee, transferred to Milwaukee, and Henry O'Day, who was signed after the meeting, secured in his stead. With the acquisition of Ferson Milwaukee will play Twitchell in the field and may occasionally put him into the box, and Pabst was released and turned over to Kansas City.

Kansas City drew Dug dale and Rollins as catchers, and will return Rollins. That city will also be given Tom Nagle, who was signed after the meeting was over, or a new man yet to be signed. Indianapolis will have as catchers Quinn and Dngdale, or, if Kansas City does not want Nagle. be given an option on that player. Frank Sheibeck.

Tatrolraan Wilson's Son Has ITad Threo Wives-Taken to Terre Haute. Edward Wilson was arrested yesterday by detectives Kaehn and Doherty in Hanghville, and was charged with bigamy. He is the second son of patrolman Wilson, and, like the elder son, has caused bis father an endless amount of trouble. The arrest was made on information furnished by a young woman named Ollie Fike, whom he married in Terre Haute the first week of this month. He deserted her in a few days, and her friends began an investigation, which resulted in an order for his arrest.

He was divorced from his first wife on ground of cruel treatment less than a year ago. and has since married again in this city. His second Indianapolis wife was named Shatter. The sheriii of Vigo county took Wilson to Terre Haute last night to answer for tm crime.

TIIAT $1,000 BREWERY TAX The British Syndicate's fet 3Ieasnre Argued Before Judge IJrown Yesterday. Outside Agencies Combine to Teat Its Legality Murderer Slartin Sent Back to Missouri Other Cases in the Court. The most important court case yesterday was thatof the City of Indianapolis against Jacob L. Pieler, Agent, et aL, in the Circuit Court, on the validity of the brewery license of the city. Judge Howe, of this city, and Charles Korbley.of Madison, represented the defendant, and Leon llaily and Mr.

Daniels the city: The argument began at 2 o'clock and lasted nntil 5. liieler is agent for the Anheuser-Rusch Brewing Association, of St, Louis, and Griftin for the Madison Brewing Company. These two companies are fighting the ordinance as a test case, although every outside brewing company doing business in the city is interested. The ordinance requires that "every person or persons, firm, corporation or company carrying on a distilling or brewing business within thecity of Indianapolis.and all depots or agencies established in said eity. of all breweries and distilleries, and all wholesale dealers in malt liquors, except as hereinbefore provided, shall pay an annual license fee of $1,000." Section 2 provides that the city controller shall keep a register of all licenses issued, and Section 3 provides for a penalty of a hue not exceeding $100.

The counsel for the defense argued that the act was an unjust discrimination in favor of the home concerns, basing bis argument on the fact that the home breweries sell more than three-fourths of all the beer sold in Indianapolis, and that this is all made by the Indianapolis Brewing Company, a syndicate owned by one company, yet doing business in the name of three separate and distinct concerns. Further, that the Indianapolis Brewing Company, while they sell 75 per cent, more beer than the outside concerns, pay only Sl.000 more license, and the other concerns each pay $1,000, yet sell only one-fourth the amocnt of beer. Therein, in the opinion of the defendants' counsel, lies the invalidity of the ordinance. The counsel for the city presented the act of Congress, passed last May, which, it argued, covered everything, and made it valid for the passage of such an one by the City Council as above cited: "That all fermented, distilled or other intoxicating liquors or liquids transported into any State or Territory, or remaining therein, for use, consumption, sale or storage therein, shall, upon arrival in such State or Territory, be subject to the operation and effect of the laws of finch State or Territory enacted in the exercise of its police powers, to the same extent and in the same manner as though such liquids or liquors had been produced in such State or Territory, and shall not be exempt therefrom by reason of being introduced therein in original packages or otherwise." The attorneys for the plaintiff, further ague that while the ordinance may be at fault, there can be no uncertainty as to its correct meaning and the city is simply carrying out its provisions in enforcing it. These companies have taaen a stand together and refused to pay their license.

The arguments were all heard and the decision reserved. Neighbors' Quarrel In Court. Mary A. Wade has sued Mary Wilson in theJ5uperior Court for maintaining a nuisance. Both women live on Broadway, near Christian avenue, and their houses are very close to each other.

They had a and the defendant, to get even, built a seven-and a-half foot tight board fence between her house and that of the plaintiff, thereby completely shutting out the light and air from the latter's kitchen. Mrs. Wade feels that her anguish of spirit has been damaged (500 worth, aud she demands that much in her suit. It is simply one of those pretty, romantio little neighborhood spats in which the good housewives are the principals, while their husbands stand by and let 'em fight it out, knowing that it is the quietest, quickest way to settle the thing. Alleged Wit That May ProTe Costly.

For a change, the Citizens' Street-railroad Company figures as defendant in a suit filed in court yesterday. Albert Hill, an infirm old man, aged sixty-five, was employed at the College-avenue barn, nntil recently, as a sort of general-utility man. On the 3d of February George Griilin and Dennis Crane told Hill to carry some loose wire, lying in the front part of the bam, to the rear. They knew that one of the wires was heavily charged with electricity at the time. When Hill picked it no.

he was severely shocked, and, because of his age and weak physical condition, he was affected for some time. He now sues tho company for $20,000 damages. Martin Returned to Missouri. Jethro Martin, the man from Missouri, who is charged with murdering his father, and was arrested here last month as a vicious-looking character, and has been confined in tho work-bouse ever since, was identified by James J. Martin, his cousin, in the Criminal Court yesterday and left on the noon train for Audrain county, Missouri, in charge of Sheriii' George Adams.

At the time of his arrest Martin gave his name as Harry Brown. He made an attempt to escape from the work-house shortly after his arrest by jumping through at glass door. Sued for Ills lleneflts. Cary A. Meyers has sued the United Brotherhood of Carpenters and Joiners of America for He claims to be a member in good standing and an organizer of lodge No.

239. of this city. According to the constitution, all members fully paid up and in creditable standing shall, if disabled, receive $300 benefits from the order. Myers fell from a scaffold while walking oti a building at 543 Bright street last April and nut in bis claim for tho $300, but he never got it. Hence tho suit.

Damages for a Lost Hand. John II. Loud, an employe in Michael Clone's lounge factory, had his left hand chopped oil' by a husk-cutter, on the 7th of last November, and now sues Clune for $25,003 damages. The. iloor about the cutter contained several loose boards, making it unsafe for a person to work near it for fear of being nitcbed forward into the cutter, just as happened in Load's case.

Loud claims he warned Clune several times to bave the iloor fixed, but he failed to realize the necessity of it. Hiven to the- Children's Guardians. The Circuit Court yesterday gave the Board of Children's Guardians possession Sf the four children of Robert McGuire and and wife, was done at Mr. McGuiro's consent pendmtf bin obtaining bis divorce from his wife for which ho has sued.
