THE RING INDICTMENTS.

What VIII the District Attorney Do
About the Lesser Criminals Ills Judge
Davis to Try Those Under Indictment
Inquiries were yesterday made at the District
Attorneys office in regard to indictments pending
against John Walsh, "Tom, Conan. 'sMiken Nor
ton, "Harry" Genet, Charles T. Wilbur and "Corneil"
Corson for completely in the Ring frauds and other
municipal peculasons which have created so much
Indignation In the community during the past two
years. Genet was yesterday ready in the Oyer and
Terminer Court with his two lawyers, Messrs.
Fullerton and the exRecorder, but the prose-
cution were as yet unprepared to 60 on with the
case. Judge lngraham was on the bench. 1t Is I'M
possible to ascertain any positive information at the
District Attorneys ofice as to what proceedings
are being taken against the Ring criminals who
nave been indicted but not yet trled But gentle
man. VINO IL intimately acquainted with the inner
workings OF the office governed by Mr.. Phelps,
stated positively TO HERALD reporter yesterday
That not one OF the accused Will be allowed to es-
cape, ana tnat tney Will be punishedas were their
leading accomplces, Tweed and Ingersoll-to the
mll extent OF the law. The HERALD reporter en-
deavored TO ascertain If Justice Mcclure, who has
lately been ejected rom his ONCE OF Civil Justice,
after q four years occupation. was to be indicted
on charge OF having illegally obtained $40, ,000 or
f0ur years salary, from the city while holding an
Office to which he had been fraudulently elected.
Tpe reporter was refused Information on this as
wen as other points, on the grounds that to pub
lish any facts In anticipation would defeat the ends
OF Justice. AT any rate q lew days Will tell the
story, when Judge Davis occupies the bench.
Inc rumor that well known politician from a
downtown ward, who had received over $4,000, 900
from the city during the Ring adm nstration Tor
plumbing work, had been indicted, could not be
suDstantlated yesterday, although 1t Is believed
enat tne people IN the District Attorneys once are
seeking TO conceal all information from the public
on this and kindred points.
