SLOANE'S CHANCES FOR COM.
ING TO THE SURFACE.
His Friends and Lawyers Very Busy
in His Behalf.

Special Dispatch to the Leader
SANDUsKY, October 3.
Since telegraphing you yesterday in
relation to the rumored return of Rush
r. Sloane, we have learned further
facts in relation to the affair. On
Tuesday last, a prominent lawyer of
Cleveland was in the city, and was
closeted for four hours with 1. F. Mack,
editor of the Register, who is bitter
opponent of Sloane, and who has de-
clared mis- intention never to ''let up''
OIL The great railroad robber. although
he has been approached by Sloane and
his friends on several occasions, at
which times we know that some very
persuasive arguments have been ad-
vanced. That lawyers visit here was
solely for the purpose of seeing Mr..
Mack, and Homer Goodwin, Sloane's
attorney. We do not know exactly all
that occurred at the meeting between
the lawyer and Mr.. Mack, but we do
know tina. he tried to induce Mr. Mack
to refrain from further ventilation of
Sloane's affairs in the Register 1t is
stated on most excellent authority that
clOduc IdS duIuOTlLcu lrlcuu VI Ills
here in the city to purchase the editors
silence, if possible, for 81, 900.
As near as we can ascertain by care
full inquiry, the aforesaid lawyer is
making arrangements to have Sloane
return to this city just as soon as the
present term Of the Common Pleas
Court, now in session here, closes.
Sloane will give himself up to the au-
thorities and demand to be admitted
TO bail. His lawyer thinks the matter
can be fixed" so that Sloane's bail will
not be placed at a sum exceeding S10,-
900 or Sl5. 900. Between the time of
Sloane's arrival here and the next term
of court, it is thought, if the Register
can be muzzied, that Sloane and his
friends can create sympathy enough
for him to enable him to get the in
dictments against him nollied. The
