CHICAGO, June 1.-The grand jury has
indicted the model county undertaken
Chaffee, but that disposer of stiffs is now
sojourning in Burmuda for his health. He
was indicted for "traficking in human
bodies" which the statute pronounces a
misdemeanor punishable with $1,000 fine,
or one years imprisonment in the county
jail, or both. In forty four cases in which
Chatfee claims to have found friends for
the dead delivered to him, only one was
found to be true, the body of Daniel
Parker being delivered to his brother. 1t
is now supposed that Chaffee. who at last
accounts was in the Bermudas, will never
return voluntarily to this city aud he will
probably have to be sent for.
