INDICTMENTS IN THE SAFE BURGLARY CASE.
HARRINGTON. WHITLEY, NETTLEsHIP, AND OTHERS,
INDICTED FOR PARTICIPATION IN THE cRIAR-A
SENSATION CREATED BY THIS ACTION. ~ .
IBr TELEGRAPH TO THE TaIBUsE.l
WASHINGTON, Sept. 13.-The indictments in the
safe burglary case will be brought into the Crim-
nal Court tomorrow and bench warrants issued for
the arrest of the conspirators Those presented by
the Grand Jury on Saturday were Harrington, Col.
Whitley, Nettleshp, A. b. Williams OF the Police
Court, and Michael Hayes. All of these are charged
with conspiracy to accuse Columbus Alexander OF
an Infamous crime, and cause his arrest therefor
In addition, Benton and Bliss, the two men
who, under the immediate direction OF Hayes,
blew open the safe, were presented for burglary
In this District conviction for the crime of con-
spiracy is punished by fine and imprisonment in the
Penitentiary at tho discretion of the Court and in
addition it works forfeiture of citizenship. The
report printed here yesterday that exAssstant Sec
retary Sawyer had been presented by the Grand
Jury for participation in this conspiracy was wholly
erroneous. His name has not been mentioned in the
jury-room in connection with the case Someryille,
the New-Yo lawyer, who helped arrange the bail
ing OF Benton, and Shailer, clerk in the secret
service division of the Treasury, also errone-
ously named IN the list of those indicted
The action of the Grand Jury has created a great
sensation in Washington. The general belief was
that the old District Ring would be able to save
Harrington, every effort possible to secure that
end was put forth. The same has been true OF the
attempts to prevent either the removal or indict-
meut of Whitley OF Nettleship, and threats were
repeatedly made on Whitleys part to pull down the
pillars Of the temple with him if he disturbed,
but in spite of all these efforts and threats there has
been no Government case since Mr.. Lincolns assas-
inatiOn worked up with as much energy as Mr.. Rid
die and Solicitor Wilson have displayed in this. Hal
let KilbOurne's presence at the Continental Hotel
in Philadelphia with Harrington, when the latter
went to meet Somerville. appears to have been
altogether accidental. He was in Philadelphia
purely on business for his firm, and met Harrington
by chance. After the latter had left the city, he
telegraphed back that he had forgotten to pay his
hotel bill and requested him tKibourne) to settle it,
KilbOurne disclaims even the remotest connection
with Harrington and Somerville in this matter. 1t
is expected that HarriDgtons connection with the
District-Attorney's Office will end tomorrow. 1t
is generally believed also, that Dstrict-Attorney
Fisher will be removed by the Acknowledgement
for his course in the matter of tho illegal
bail procured for Benton. This removal could not
well be made while the Grand Jury were engaged
on the case The resignation of Col Whitley will
take effect on the 30th, in order to give him an OPP
portunity to close his business. s. b. Benson of
Pennsylvania has been appointed acting Chief OF
the Secret Service Division to serve meanwhile.
