Indiana House considers 100 day session amendment
A current resolution in the Indiana House proposes extending legislative sessions to 100 days. Observers estimate only about 35 working days exist in a 61 day session, suggesting insufficient time to properly consider all matters before the General Assembly amid political manipulation. Archduke Ropours of Austria, killed in a duel, was a noted scientist and author. Archduke Ropours, 30, respected in German and Austrian circles for his studies and writings. Marion County Clerk John E Sullivan fled Indianapolis to escape defalcations, possibly joining insurance embezzler Joseph A. Moore in Montreal, carrying about $50,000. The Indianapolis Sentinel calls him a colossal thief, with victims widespread and many left in beggary.
