Touching the indictment of ex-senator K ell
logg, the ex-senator who is in the city, has
been interviewed. He says
Behind the whole matter there are ami

there has been machination at work to
secure my indictment. Those behind it

To my mind the object in pursuing me is to

with grand jury of reputable citizens, the
case, as presented to that body so far
as it affected myself, was prescribed.
The attorneys for the prosecution
then went into court and had the grand
jury reconvened, and after a second
review the case against me was ignored
Now, after the lapse of year, and upon

Mr.. kellogg added that it is strange. at all
events, that Mr.. Ker, Democrat, should
have gone before the grand jury for the first

A DOOMED WOMAN.
Mrs. Meeker to Be Hanged To-day-A Visit
from Her Son.

WINDSOR, VT, March 29-Mrs. Meeker
will be hanged tomorrow. She was calm
most of the day, but seems to appreciate her
helpless condition, and is expected to break
down. She received letter from her son
Almon, to-day offering consolat on and urg-
ing her to confess, saying his confession
made him feel enough better to pay for the
pain it cost, ard that it would be better for
her in the next world to make clean breast
of the affair. He said he would lay down
his life to save her, but that being impos-
sible, he can only offer her the satisfaction
words can give, and expresses the hope that
they ''shall meet in better land beyond,
where there is no Sorrow and sadness" He
closed by saying he is trying to lead Chris
tan life, and trusting she will be in readi-
ness to meet her God.
Shortly after receipt of the letter, Almon
visited his mother in her cell, in the presence
of the prison officials. They shook hands,
the mother showing slight excitement over
the letter. She claimed it was all false and
that Amon's lies had brought her to her
present position, and demanded why he did
so. She admitted she could tell the true
story but claimed that justice should be
meted out to all. Ste said all the family
hated Alice and had whipped her severely
Almon asked her if she had not asked him
to take the child to the mountains and leave
it to starve. She laughed, saying she never
thought of such a thing. During the inter-
view which lasted over an hour, she showed
great resolution. She still maintains her
innocence and says she is ready to meet her
Lord. She had an interview, later, with
chaplain, when she was more uneasy.

The Illinois Supreme Court Holds that Op-
orators Must Settle at the Figures
Agreed Upon.

CHICAGO, March 29 Information has
reached here that the Supreme Court, sitting
at Springfield, has filed an opinion in the
case of Lester and others against the Chicago
Board of Trade, in favor of the latter The
suits, twenty in number, grew out of what
is known as the July wheat corner. The
market for the close of that month having
reached $1.36, large number of operators
refused to settle at the figure named. The
amount thus held back is estimated at be-
tween 50, 900, 600 and So, 600 000 The matter
was taken before the arbitration committee
of the board, the hearing extending over
nearly one month, the losing operators urg-
ing that the market had been cornered by a
clique and cited as an instance the price of
cash wheat. The case had additional inter
est as it was deemed test one. The arbitra-
ton committee fixed the settling price at
81. .35, at which figure operators were ordered
~ make good their differences In antici-
pstion of the report of the committee the
matter was carried into court and the Board
of Trade enjoined from attempting to dis
cipline the members, and restrained from
. any action tending to deprive them of board
membership. The same allegations were
uEged in court, viz to the effect that the
ludI Iheb udu Ueen COTIlereu ana InaC the trans
actions were of gambling nature. To this
the Board of Trade urged no defense, citing
the board rules as sufficient under which to
discipline board members. The lower court
decided the members amenable to the rules
of the board, and that the court could afford
them no relief from obligations voluntarily
taken in joining the board. This the Su-
preme Court sustains.
Mr.. Armour who was alleged to have en-
gineered the supposed corner, said that no
defense had been urged to the allegation that
the market had been manipulated so as to
definitely settle the question whether con-
tracts could be invalidated on the board,
even though the fact of the corner was trans
parent and notorious. Amour seemed elated
over the result, and declared that it made
con ntracts on the board hereafter, no matter
end to the litigation over disputed deals.
The result created considerable excitement

Selling the Corpses of Pauper Children to
Medical Schools for Dissection.

Boston, March 29.-There was a large at
tendance at the investigation, by legislative
committee concerning the public charitable
Institutions of the charges of Governor
Butler of mismanagement at the Tewksbury
almshouse, the selling of bodies, ETC. E. P.
Brown, counsel for the officers, denied the
specific charges. Governor Butler said this
was not trial; he was not public prosecu-
tor, but was present to give evidence by wit
nesses who knew whereof they spoke, ad-
ding: II have neither whitewash brush nor
backing brush to use as weapons"
DR.. John Dixwel, graduate or the Har.
ward Medical School, testified that the stu
dents received a large number of infant
3odies, which they bought from William
Andrews, janitor, at from SO to SIS each
Andrews, it was said, obtained all bodies
from the alms-house. Andrews has since
killed himself. Dissection showed that in
many cases the infants had had no food for
twenty-four hours before death. The wit
ness gave the same testimony before the
grand jury some five years ago.
Governor Butler quoted the law providing
for the giving of bodies to medical schools
and requiring ultimate burial of the re-
mains. The witness said the bodies were dis
sected on the same table with animals, and
the remains were swept into the same re-
: ceptacle. Adult bodies cost so much that
the students "chip i'm and obtain them.
John H. Chase, who was employed at the
almshouse in 1880, and dischaig ged for drunk
enness, testified to driving team containing
large number of bodies from the aims
house to Harvard. Heard Marsh. the assist
ant superintendent, say he received $40 for
4dult bodies from Harvard, and $12 from the
Female college. There were between 300
and 400 deaths year. Some of the bodies
were picked in pork barrels and sent to
Boston by Marsh. Sometimes funeral SER
vices were held over coffins filled with wood.
